The bottom plate 21 is connected with the machine body 1 through the gas spring 25, the bottom plate 21 is elastically connected with the machine body 1, the situations that the driving wheel assemblies 23 on the two sides of the bottom plate 21 cannot be suitable for curved-surface wall surface operation and are easy to drive to lose efficacy, turn over, fall and the like due to the fact that the bottom plate 21 is directly and rigidly connected with the machine body 1 are avoided, the wall climbing robot is suitable for the curved-surface wall surface operation with multiple curvatures and large curvatures, the curved-surface adaptability and the motion stability of the wall climbing robot are improved, and the operation risk of the wall climbing robot is reduced. And, magnetic adsorption subassembly 24 installs on bottom plate 21, can follow bottom plate 21 motion, and the adjustable magnetic adsorption power's of lift through bottom plate 21 size combines the use of air spring 25 for wall climbing robot can be according to the unsmooth degree regulation magnetic adsorption power size of the operation face of locating when adapting to operation face camber.
In this embodiment, gas spring coupling 251 is mounted on both base plate 21 and housing 1, and each gas spring 25 is mounted on a corresponding gas spring coupling 251.
In this embodiment, four gas springs 25 are respectively disposed in each set of lifting and moving wheel set 2, the four gas springs 25 are arranged in a quadrilateral shape, the four gas springs 25 provide balanced supporting force for the bottom plate 21, and two gas springs 25 are respectively disposed on two sides of the lifting mechanism 22. Two gas springs 25 located on the same side of the lifting mechanism 22 are respectively disposed at the front and rear sides of the driving wheel assembly 23, so that the four gas springs 25 are distributed close to the four vertex angles of the bottom plate 21.
When climbing wall robot in the motion of plane wall surface, three groups liftable remove the sufficient magnetic absorption subassembly 24's of wheel suction direction perpendicular to wall surface, and the adsorption affinity that each magnetic absorption subassembly 24 provided is the same, and at this moment, air spring 25 mainly plays bradyseism supporting role to guarantee robot's stability and flexibility. When the wall climbing robot moves on the curved surface wall surface, the posture of each driving wheel needs to be adjusted to enable the wall climbing robot to be tightly attached to the curved surface, the air springs 25 can be compressed, self-adaption of the robot in the longitudinal direction is achieved by the aid of the characteristics that the expansion speed of the air springs 25 is relatively slow, dynamic force changes are small and the like, curvature matching of the 6 driving wheels and the curved surface where the driving wheels are located is guaranteed, and the driving wheels are prevented from being suspended.
The curvature radius of the wall surface and the compression amount of the gas spring satisfy the following formula:
Figure BDA0003795478290000071
wherein R represents a radius of curvature of the wall surface; s represents the compression amount of the gas spring; l represents the center distance between adjacent lifting moving wheel sets (specifically the distance between the centers of two driving wheels), and r represents the radius of the driving wheels; when the wall surface is a convex curved surface, the mark is taken, and when the wall surface is a concave curved surface, the mark is taken.
Further, in order to ensure that the chassis of the wall-climbing robot does not interfere with the curved wall surface, it is preferable that the shortest distance l between the lifting plate 221 at the bottom of the lifting mechanism 22 of each set of lifting and moving wheel set 2 and the curved wall surface is greater than or equal to 3mm, wherein the shortest distance l between the lifting plate 221 of the front lifting and moving wheel set 2 and the curved wall surface is represented as l according to the front-to-rear direction of the machine body 1 1 The shortest distance between the lifting plate 221 of the middle lifting moving wheel set 2 and the curved wall surface is represented as l 2 The shortest distance between the lifting plate 221 of the rear lifting movable wheel set 2 and the curved wall surface is represented as l 3 Then:
l 1 ≥3mm (2)
l 2 ≥3mm (3)
l 3 ≥3mm (4)
as shown in fig. 7, on the convex curved wall surface, the shortest distance l between the lifting plate 221 of the lifting moving wheel set 2 at the middle part and the curved wall surface 2 The following formula is satisfied:
l 2 =H-S (5)
wherein H represents a gap between the lifting plate 221 and the wall surface when the lifting mechanism is in the initial setting state, and the maximum value of H is 28mm; s represents the amount of compression of the gas spring.
On the convex curved surface wall surface, the shortest distance l between the lifting plate 221 of the lifting moving wheel set 2 at the middle part and the curved surface is ensured 2 Satisfy the requirement, then 1 And l 3 The requirements must be met. As can be seen from the formulas (1), (3) and (5), the minimum curvature radius of the wall climbing robot capable of adapting to the curved wall surface mainly depends on the compression amount S of the gas spring 25 of the middle lifting movable wheel set 2. The larger the compression amount S of the gas spring 25, the smaller the radius of curvature of the convex curved surface. Take L =259mm, r =74mm, h =28mm 2 And the gas spring 25 of the wheel set 2 is compressed only in the middle part, and at the moment, the minimum curvature radius R of the convex curved wall surface which can be adapted by the wall-climbing robot can be calculated to be 1280mm, and the maximum compression S of the gas spring 25 is 25mm.
As shown in fig. 8, the shortest distance between the lifting plate 221 of the front lifting/lowering wheel set 2 and the curved wall surface on the concave curved wall surface is represented by l 1 And the shortest distance between the lifting plate 221 of the lifting moving wheel set 2 at the rear side and the curved wall surface is expressed as l 3 The following formula is satisfied:
Figure BDA0003795478290000081
wherein L is 1 The width of the lifting plate is shown, R is the curvature radius of the curved wall surface, H is the clearance between the lifting plate and the wall surface when the lifting mechanism is in an initial setting state, and the maximum value of H is 28mm; l represents the center-to-center spacing of adjacent sets of elevatably movable wheels.
On the concave curved wall surface, as long as l is ensured 1 、l 3 The shortest distance l between the lifting plate 221 of the lifting moving wheel set 2 at the middle part and the curved wall surface is satisfied 2 The requirements must be met. As can be seen from the formulas (1), (2), (4) and (6), the minimum curvature radius of the wall-climbing robot capable of adapting to the concave curved surface mainly depends on the shortest distance l between the electric lifting device of the front-back moving wheel set and the curved surface 1 And l 3 . When l is 1 And l 3 The smaller the compression amount S of the gas spring, the smaller the curvature radius of the concave curved surface. Take L =259mm, L 1 =152mm,r=74mm,H=28mm,l 1 =l 3 And the gas spring 25 only moving the wheel set back and forth is compressed by 3mm, the compression amount is the same, the minimum curvature radius R of the wall climbing robot adapting to the concave curved wall surface can be calculated to be 2260mm, and the maximum compression amount S of the gas spring 25 is 15mm.
