The working principle of the front support device 1 and the rear support device 6 of the telescopic crawling robot in the pneumatic pipe is as follows: the two ends of the robot are basically the same in structure and action principle by the front supporting device 1 and the rear supporting device 6, and the front supporting device 1 is taken as an example to explain the working principle:
when the air distribution valve 5 enables the air inlet 107 to enter air, the piston 109 and the piston rod 106 are pushed to move rightwards, under the combined action of the spiral compression spring a101 and the spiral compression spring 105, the sliding block 104 moves rightwards to drive the supporting rod 102 to rotate and move rightwards in the sliding groove 114, and the supporting rod 102 loosens the support on the pipe wall; when the air distribution valve 5 makes the air inlet a112 intake air, the piston 109 and the piston rod 106 are pushed to move left, and under the combined action of the helical compression spring a101 and the helical compression spring 105, the slider 104 moves left, drives the support rod 102 to rotate and move left in the sliding groove 114, so that the support rod 102 is tightly supported on the pipe wall.
The working principle of the gas distribution valve 5 is as follows:
as shown in fig. 8 and 9, when air is not taken into and exhausted from the air pipes p and q for a while, the air supply is connected to the air inlet f502 through the air supply pipe 7, the air inlet f502 is always in an air inlet state, when the valve plate 503 is positioned at the left side of the gap n, the power air enters the g cavity of the cylinder block c609 through the air inlet f502, the gap n and the air distribution hole 505, pushes the piston c601 to move to the right, starts to supply air to the front support device 1 through the air inlet 107 through the air outlet d506, the piston c601 moves to the right, the pressure of the h cavity rises after the piston c601 blocks the air outlet e507, and when the piston c601 crosses the air outlet e507, as shown in fig. 10 and 11, the g cavity is vented to the atmosphere through the air outlet e507, because the h cavity is communicated with the annular gap m through the air outlet f509 and the air outlet g508, the pressure air acts on the left side of the valve plate 503 to push the valve plate 503 to, on the one hand, air is supplied to the front support device 1 through the air inlet a112, and on the other hand, air is supplied to the h cavity of the cylinder block c609, and the piston c601 is pushed to the left. When the piston c601 moves left to block the exhaust port e507 again, the pressure of the g cavity rises, once the piston c601 crosses the exhaust port e507, the h cavity is communicated with the atmosphere through the exhaust port e507, pressure is suddenly relieved, the valve plate 503 rapidly moves left under the action of the pressure air of the g cavity and returns to the initial position, and the valve plate reciprocating circulation air distribution action is formed in the process.
The invention relates to an integral working principle of a telescopic crawling robot in a pneumatic pipe, which comprises the following steps:
as shown in fig. 12, the air supply is connected to the air inlet f502 through the air supply pipe 7, when the air distribution valve 5 outputs the power air from the air pipe p through the air outlet d506, the power air firstly reaches the air inlet 107 of the front support device 1 to enable the piston 109 to move right, the support manipulator is pulled to loosen the support of the pipe wall, the power air reaches the d cavity of the front telescopic cylinder 3 through the air outlet 108 and the air inlet c304, the piston a303 is pushed to extend the piston rod a301 to enable the robot to move forward for a distance, then the power air reaches the e cavity of the rear telescopic cylinder 4 through the air outlet c305 and the air inlet d401, the piston b402 is pushed to extend the piston rod b403 to enable the robot to move forward for a distance again, then the air distribution valve 5 is reversed, the air pipe q is output through the air outlet g508 to enter the b cavity of the cylinder block 110 of the front support device 1 through the air inlet a112, the piston, meanwhile, the power air enters the h cavity of the cylinder of the rear support device 5 through the exhaust port f509, the piston c601 is pushed to pull back the piston rod c602 to loosen the rear support manipulator, then the power air in the b cavity of the cylinder of the front support device 1 reaches the c cavity of the front telescopic cylinder 3 through the exhaust port a111 and the air inlet b306, the cylinder body of the front telescopic cylinder 3 moves forwards due to the immobility of the piston a303, namely, the subsequent part of the robot is pulled to move forwards for a certain distance, meanwhile, the power air in the c cavity of the front telescopic cylinder 3 reaches the f cavity of the rear telescopic cylinder 4 through the exhaust port b307 and the air inlet e405, the piston a303 of the rear telescopic cylinder 3 moves forwards due to the immobility of the cylinder body b404 of the rear telescopic cylinder 4, the subsequent part of the robot is pulled to move forwards for a certain distance, so that the robot completes a forward process, and then under the automatic air distribution action of the air distribution, the robot can realize continuous automatic forward movement until the air source is closed.
