Description

Wall climbing robot for cleaning round pipe
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to a wall climbing robot for cleaning round tubes.
Background
In modern life, pipeline transportation is widely applied to the fields of petroleum, chemical industry and the like. Due to the complex working environment, the pipeline maintenance becomes extremely difficult.
The development of pipeline robots has been derived into many types from the nineties of the last century, and pipeline robots on the market are roughly classified into 1. Wheel type pipeline robots; 2. track-driven robots; 3. a pressure-difference robot; 4. a foot-type support robot; 5. a peristaltic driving robot; 6. the screw drives the robot. Each type has advantages and disadvantages, and the current researches of the pipeline robot are mainly focused on a wheel type pipeline robot and a track-driven pipeline robot, and the two current researches of the pipeline robot which have larger research relevance and are more common are introduced below. 1. The wheel type pipeline robot has been developed by scientists in Japan and France as early as nineties in the last century, and the wheel type pipeline robot KANTARO adopts a clutch structure to realize differential drive, has the advantages of simple driving mode, simple structure and the like, can adapt to pipe diameter change, and can also pass through bent pipes such as T-shaped pipe, L-shaped pipe and the like. But has the disadvantage that six drive motors are required for driving, resulting in a robot that is bulky and difficult to control.
Researchers at Harbin industrial university in China also design and develop a wheel type driving robot to monitor and maintain submarine pipelines, the robot is provided with an intelligent control system, different driving modes can be selected according to actual working conditions, and differential driving is realized by means of multiple sections connected in series. The differential planetary gear is adopted to replace a KANTARO clutch, so that the speed of each wheel can be automatically adjusted, and the driving efficiency of the robot is higher. But still cannot overcome the problem of the complexity of the drive system. 2. Crawler type pipeline robot is like a crawler type tank-like, has large traction force and strong obstacle crossing capability, and is often applied to severe pipeline environments with high and low fluctuation and obstacles. And the adhesive capacity is strong, so that the adhesive has the unique advantage of working in an environment filled with stains. Tracked robots are also currently an extremely large group of pipeline robots. In foreign countries, the INUKTUN company, canada has successfully developed a double track type pipeline robot, as shown in FIG. 2. The pipeline robot has the function of adapting to different pipe diameters, the crawler belt of the pipeline robot adopts a rigid supporting structure, and the included angles of the crawler belts at two sides can be adjusted according to different pipeline inner diameters. The robot can walk in a flat ground or a rectangular pipeline, and only the crawler belts on two sides are required to be adjusted to be in parallel positions. The biggest problem faced by the pipeline robot is that the included angles of the caterpillar tracks on two sides cannot be changed in the walking process, and the robot is required to be well adjusted according to the pipe diameter before entering the pipeline, so that the robot is not suitable for the pipeline environment with the pipe diameter changed.
In China, research such as Ma Hong of the university of vinca and the like designs a pipeline robot capable of realizing semi-automatic detection on the inner wall of a pipeline, and the pipeline robot can adapt to the pipeline with the pipe diameter ranging from 35mm to 155 mm. The robot can detect the information of cracks, welding seams, sand holes and the like on the inner wall of the pipeline and shoot the information, and displays a real-time image through a display screen, but can not process the defects of the welding seams and the like in real time.
Although some researchers have proposed design schemes of pipeline robots at present, most of the robots have single functions and are not practical in practical production. A robot is urgently needed to meet practical and targeted work demands.
