Background
Because the pipeline of the gas turbine power plant runs under severe working conditions such as high temperature, high pressure and the like for a long time, the pipeline welding seam inevitably has different defects and is easy to expand into harmful factors such as cracks and the like, so that serious accidents such as leakage, pipe explosion and the like of the pipeline occur, and huge potential safety hazards are brought to the running of a power station. The detection of current pipeline welding seam need carry out ground excavation, set up the scaffold frame, demolish a large amount of preparation work in earlier stage such as heat preservation, and is consuming time and wasting force, risk height seriously influence the safe economic operation of thermal power plant, consequently development wall climbing robot carries out long-range nondestructive test to pipeline inner weld and has urgent demand. Aiming at special environmental conditions in pipeline detection tasks, various wall-climbing robot models are already available on the market. At present, international research on the wall-climbing robot mainly focuses on the aspects of the adsorption mode, the movement mechanism, the control strategy and the like of the body, and certain research results are available on key technologies such as the whole system research and development of the wall-climbing robot, the pipeline space positioning method and the trajectory tracking method. The summary is as follows:
1. the invention with the publication number of CN111412342A discloses a pipeline detection robot and a pipeline detection method aiming at the development of a whole system of a wall-climbing robot, wherein the wall-climbing robot comprises a vehicle body, a driving mechanism and a camera device, and the omnibearing camera detection of a pipeline space is realized by acquiring images of a plurality of camera devices and splicing the images; the document "design of a welding line detection robot system outside a spherical tank" (yellow seam, southeast university, 2019.) designs a wheel type wall climbing robot capable of climbing on the outer wall of the spherical tank, and designs an applicable hardware control system in combination with a working environment, so that the rationality of tank wall flaw detection of the wall climbing robot is verified.
2. In order to solve the problem of positioning of the wall-climbing robot in the pipeline space, the invention with the publication number of CN104007664A discloses a three-dimensional view simulation motion method of the wall-climbing robot in a nuclear power station, and provides a method for positioning the wall-climbing robot on the inner wall of a cylinder body at the secondary side of a steam generator in the nuclear power station by fusing data of an acceleration sensor, a distance measuring sensor, a gyroscope, a motor encoder and a camera, so that the positioning precision of the wall-climbing robot in the pipeline space is improved.
3. In order to realize the track tracking function of the mobile robot, the literature 'wall-climbing robot design and path tracking method research' (Monsantong. Harbin engineering university, 2013.) establishes kinematic models of differential wheels and omnidirectional wheel trolleys, realizes positioning in a mode of a gyroscope and a passive encoder, and realizes a navigation algorithm of straight lines and circular arc tracks on a plane based on a PID control mode; the invention with the publication number of CN113467496A discloses a design method and a control system of a two-wheeled trolley balanced track and tracking controller based on information fusion, wherein a dynamic observer is used for carrying out dimension expansion on variable information and realizing interference suppression filtering on specific frequency spectrum disturbance, and meanwhile, the trolley track tracking controller is designed by combining LQR and PID algorithms.
In summary, the wall-climbing robot system and the key technical method related to positioning and tracking can well assist field workers to complete pipeline detection tasks in simple scenes. However, semi-autonomous or even fully-autonomous control of the wall-climbing robot in the pipeline space still has some problems to be researched and optimized. Firstly, from the research and development of the whole system of the wall climbing robot, the method emphasizes on improving the detection efficiency under the operation mode of manual control of workers, and does not consider introducing an autonomous control mode; secondly, from the application of technologies such as robot positioning and trajectory tracking, the positioning method can already meet the positioning requirement of the wall climbing robot in the pipeline space, but an effective trajectory tracking method is not proposed for the wall climbing robot running in the pipeline space.
By knowing the cylindrical pipe space modeling parameters and being able to give the pipe space positions of defect points or other types of target points, it is of great importance to study the target trajectory planning and the autonomous operation control mode of the robot. The autonomous control mode of the wall climbing robot can greatly reduce the operation times of workers, improve the working efficiency and bring remarkable economic and social benefits for power enterprises.
