Description

A kind of diameter changing mechanism suitable for pipe robot
Technical field
The present invention relates to pipe robot fields, and in particular to a kind of diameter changing mechanism suitable for pipe robot.
Background technique
Pipeline is a kind of in oil gas transport, and the fields such as urban water supply and sewerage engineering and Large Central Air Conditioning System ventilation are transported extensively Material delivery vehicles.However pipeline is easy to be influenced by all kinds of external elements in use, is easy to produce a series of Pipeline damage and the problems such as pipeline aging, as transported substance adhesion deposition inside piping failure, leakage or pipeline in pipeline Inner wall makes pipeline inside diameter reduce even blocking etc., if regularly cannot carry out maintenance to pipeline and clear up and may draw Great security incident is played to cause casualties and property loss.
The appearance of pipe robot provides completely new method with research and development for the maintenance of pipeline, is guaranteeing broad masses of the people Under the premise of the property of operator and personal safety, maintenance cost is saved and has reduced due to repeatedly overhauling laying repeatedly Caused by waste of material.
The pipe robot structure of the existing more wheel constructions in space is complex in domestic market, controllability and sealing Property it is poor, and in terms of adapting to different tube diameters level it is still immature.Major part is adapted to the pipeline machine of different tube diameters People is to be close to by the idler wheel of robot with tube wall, by the spring compression that connects and is loosened Lai the variation of adaptive caliber.Also The diameter changing mechanism of section of tubing robot uses the modes such as Worm-gear type, lift type, feed screw nut pair formula, but above-mentioned tradition Mode is there is also such as mechanism complexity, the problems such as manufacturing cost is high, and variable diameter range is small, and structure closure is poor, has seriously affected pipeline Use of the robot in engineering project.
Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention is that being provided a kind of suitable for pipe machine for the defect in the prior art The novel diameter changing mechanism of device people, the pipeline suitable for different inner diameters, it is ensured that pipe robot stable motion in pipeline.
The present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions.
A kind of diameter changing mechanism suitable for pipe robot of the present invention, including main shaft, cam follower, driving wheel carrier Shaft coupling and fixing seat, motor, traveling wheel and cam.Cam follower connects cam and driving wheel carrier, traveling wheel are mounted on Drive the end of wheel carrier.The rotation of cam drives the stretching, extension of driving wheel carrier and contraction to achieve the purpose that variable diameter by cam follower.
The cam is fixed on main shaft, and cam follower is connected between cam and driving wheel carrier, drives wheel carrier end Wheel is connected, forms one group of variable-diameter structure in this way.It is different according to the structure of pipe robot, should at least arrange six groups described in change Gauge structure.
The main shaft is connected by shaft coupling with motor is adjusted, and rotatory force is passed to cam by motor, and cam will The stretching, extension and contraction of driving wheel carrier are driven by cam follower.
The traveling wheel of the driving wheel carrier end setting, moves pipe robot in pipeline by wheel.
The driving wheel carrier uses link mechanism, has traveling wheel by the amplification of link mechanism biggish Motion range increases adaptability of the pipe robot in the pipeline of different tube diameters.
The motor is stepper motor.
The shaft coupling is positive coupling.
The cam is with reeded cam.The end of the cam follower can be embedded in the groove of cam, Prevent cam follower from falling off during the motion.
The beneficial effects of the present invention are: on the basis of traditional diameter changing mechanism, to devise a kind of structure simpler by the present invention Single, variable diameter range is bigger, the better novel diameter reducing mechanism of mechanism closure.Mechanism, which is based on cam, can accurately realize given movement The feature of rule matches the function of realizing that pipe robot adapts to different tube diameters using cam with wheel carrier mechanism.Pipeline machine People's fuselage interior is equipped with several cam mechanisms, and each cam corresponds to the wheel carrier mechanism of external fuselage.When needing to adapt to different pipes When the pipeline of diameter, mechanism only need to be such that the cam being mounted on an axle is rotated by motor, and wheel carrier mechanism can be realized and stretch Exhibition or the function of shrinking, to achieve the purpose that adapt to the pipeline of different tube diameters.
The diameter changing mechanism takes up space small, and pipe robot can be made compact in size;Mechanism variable diameter range is big, adjustment speed Fastly;Mechanism is simple to manufacture, and cost is relatively low;Closure is good, reduces the external corrosion to mechanism itself, long service life.
Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is diameter changing mechanism schematic diagram of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is the structural schematic diagram that diameter changing mechanism of the present invention is used for pipe robot.
Wherein, 1 it is main shaft, 2 be cam follower, 3 be driving wheel carrier, 4 be shaft coupling, 5 be motor, 6 is fixing seat, 7 It is cam for traveling wheel, 8.
Specific embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawings and examples, the present invention is further described.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, the present invention provides a kind of novel diameter reducing mechanism suitable for pipe robot.
Illustrate diameter changing mechanism with Fig. 1, in figure the left side be big-diameter pipeline the case where, the right be small-caliber pipeline under feelings Condition.
The present invention includes main shaft 1, cam follower 2, driving 3 shaft coupling 4 of wheel carrier and fixing seat 6, motor 5,7 and of traveling wheel Cam 8.Cam follower 2 connects cam 8 and driving wheel carrier 3, traveling wheel 7 are mounted on the end of driving wheel carrier 3.Cam 8 turns It is dynamic to drive the stretching, extension of driving wheel carrier 3 and contraction to achieve the purpose that variable diameter by cam follower 2.
The cam 8 is fixed on main shaft 1, and cam follower 2 is connected between cam 8 and driving wheel carrier 3, drives wheel carrier 3 ends connect wheel, form one group of diameter changing mechanism in this way.According to the structure of pipe robot, variable diameter knot described in six groups of arrangement Structure.
The main shaft 1 is connected by shaft coupling 4 with motor 5 is adjusted, and rotatory force is passed to cam 8 by motor 5, convex Wheel 8 will drive the stretching, extension and contraction of driving wheel carrier 3 by cam follower 2.
The traveling wheel 7 of driving 3 end of the wheel carrier setting, moves pipe robot in pipeline by wheel.
The driving wheel carrier 3 uses link mechanism, has traveling wheel 7 by the amplification of link mechanism larger Motion range, increase adaptability of the pipe robot in the pipeline of different tube diameters.
The motor 5 is stepper motor.
The shaft coupling 4 is positive coupling.
The cam 8 is with reeded cam.The end of the cam follower 2 can be embedded in the groove of cam 8 In, prevent cam follower 2 from falling off during the motion.
Angle theta by adjusting driving wheel carrier 3 and fuselage axis is suitable for caliber of different sizes.
Concrete operations mode of the present invention are as follows: when pipe robot, which encounters front caliber, to be decreased or increased, pass through control electricity Motivation 5 drives main shaft 1 to rotate, and the cam being fixed on main shaft 18 is made to turn to suitable position, promotes that wheel carrier 3 is driven to shrink or stretch It is long, so that traveling wheel 7 is close to inner wall of the pipe, adjust motor 5 at this time and stop operating, that is, completes the operation for adapting to front caliber, reach To the effect of adaptive different tube diameters.
