when the ground is uneven, the suspension structure can adjust the stable state of the whole robot, because the crawler wheels (1) on two sides of the vehicle body are not on the same horizontal line, the robot vibrates, the damping module (2) acts, the telescopic change function of the large damping arm (21) and the small damping arm (22) changes according to the magnitude and the direction of force, the rocker (23) swings up and down, the vehicle body module 3 can keep approximately parallel to the ground or form a small angle, the robot is prevented from tilting to turn over, the crawler wheels (1) smoothly move forwards, the ground uneven height is lower than the gravity center of the lowest transmission gear (121), the crawler wheels (1) move forwards in contact with the ground in a bottom plane of a triangle, and the buffer function is achieved when the vehicle passes small obstacles because the shape of the crawler wheels (11) is provided with radian.
2. The tracked passive adaptive robot of claim 1, wherein the body module comprises a body and four drive sections, each drive section driving one tracked wheel to act, the drive section comprising a motor, a decelerator; the motor shaft of the motor is connected with the speed reducer, the motor and the speed reducer are respectively arranged on an internal fixing plate of the vehicle body through corresponding supporting frames, and an output shaft of the speed reducer penetrates out of the vehicle body and is connected with a small belt pulley of the belt transmission body through a key; and a bearing is arranged at the contact part of the vehicle body and the output shaft of the speed reducer.
3. The crawler-type passive self-adaptive robot according to claim 2, wherein the speed reducer is composed of a large gear, a small gear and an output shaft, the small gear is fixed on a motor shaft of the motor and meshed with the large gear, the center of the large gear is connected with the output shaft, the large gear is connected with the output shaft through a bearing and a bearing end cover, and the large gear is fixed in the vehicle body through a corresponding supporting frame.
4. The tracked passive adaptive robot of claim 1, wherein the information acquisition module comprises an industrial camera, an anemometer, an antenna and a wind direction sensor, wherein the industrial camera, the anemometer and the wind direction sensor are all connected with the antenna, and the antenna is connected with an external control computer through wireless.
