Problems solved by technology

Due to the long-term exposure of wind power equipment to the outdoors, the environmental conditions are complex, and the exposed mechanisms are easily damaged. After a certain number of years of use, the paint on the shell will fall off and rust
If it is not repaired in time, the corrosion will be further deepened, which will seriously affect the subsequent service life of the wind power tower
At present, the maintenance method is still to manually hang the equipment from high altitude on the outer wall of the wind power tower for maintenance and spraying paint. The work efficiency is low, the effective spraying area is extremely small, and several times of multi-angle spraying is required, and the risk factor is high.

Embodiment Construction

[0044] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] see Figure 1-4 The invention is a spiral climbing robot for a wind power tower. The center of the robot symmetrically surrounds the outer wall of the wind power tower, and the friction wheel is driven by a motor to spiral up and down on the tower wall. The four groups of angle adjustment mechanism, pressing mechanism and climbing mechanism on 2; during the working process of the spiral climbing robot, the motor works in coordination with each mechanism.

[0046] The climbing robot is also provided with a chassis 10 to prevent dust and foreign objects from entering.

[0047] The angle adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the lead of the helical track at all times. When running to the taper position, the four symmetrically installed pressing mechanisms are synchronously pressed, and the rotating pressure rods 3 of the four climbing s...

Abstract

The invention discloses a spiral climbing robot for a wind power generation tower, and the robot surrounds the outer wall of the wind power generation tower in a central symmetry manner, and drives a friction wheel to spirally lift on the tower wall through a motor. Comprising a frame surrounding the outer wall of the wind power generation tower, and four groups of angle adjusting mechanisms, pressing mechanisms and climbing mechanisms which are symmetrically distributed on the frame; the angle adjusting mechanism is used for adjusting the lead of the spiral track all the time, when the angle adjusting mechanism moves to the taper position, the four symmetrically-installed pressing mechanisms conduct synchronous pressing, rotating pressure rods of the four climbing structures automatically rotate to be suitable for a conical surface, and effective contact force and coaxiality are guaranteed. The device is novel in design and reasonable in planning, has the advantages of being simple in structure, convenient to operate, low in manufacturing and implementation cost and high in universality, and is suitable for application and popularization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mechatronics, and in particular relates to a spiral climbing robot for a wind power generation tower. Background technique [0002] Wind energy is clean energy, and my country's wind power technology is in a stage of steady development. The eastern coastal and western regions have sufficient wind energy, and the development and utilization of wind energy and the construction of wind power generation equipment are particularly important for promoting sustainable development. Due to the long-term exposure of wind power equipment to the outdoors, the environmental conditions are complex, and the exposed mechanisms are easily damaged. If it is not repaired in time, the corrosion will further deepen, which will seriously affect the subsequent service life of the wind power tower. At present, the maintenance method is still to manually suspend the equipment from a high altitude on the outer wall of the wind p...
