As shown in fig. 1, the self-powered pneumatic adsorption walking type solar flat/curved surface self-adaptive intelligent cleaning robot comprises a flat/curved surface self-adaptive cleaning system 4, a walking system 3, a self-powered system, an intelligent control system and a frame for fixing the systems. The following is a detailed description of the various parts of the system.
(1) Flat/curved surface self-adaptive cleaning system 4
1) The system structure is as follows:
as shown in fig. 2 to 5, the flat/curved surface self-adaptive cleaning system 4 can realize self-adaptive reciprocating composite dry cleaning (suitable for areas where water and dust are easy to adhere). Mainly comprises a reciprocating motion driving mechanism (driving the self-adaptive cleaning mechanism to do reciprocating motion) and a self-adaptive cleaning mechanism (cleaning and dust removing).
The reciprocating motion driving mechanism is composed of a reciprocating drive direct current motor 5, a lead screw 6, a sliding block and a limiting groove plate 13, wherein the lead screw 6 is connected with the rack through a bearing, the reciprocating drive direct current motor 5 is connected with the lead screw 6 through a coupler and used for driving the lead screw 6 to rotate forwards or backwards, the sliding block is in threaded fit with the lead screw 6, a positioning sliding rod is fixedly installed on the rack and is in sliding fit with the positioning sliding rod, the positioning sliding rod is used for preventing rotation and guiding of the sliding block, and the sliding block is driven to perform reciprocating linear motion when the lead screw 6 rotates forwards or backwards. The slide block is detachably connected with the limiting groove plate 13 through a screw.
The self-adaptive cleaning mechanism comprises a flat/curved surface transformation driving direct current motor 10 (with a driving rod 9), a flat/curved surface self-adaptive positioning/limiting tooling plate 12, a self-resetting elastic base body 7 (the material is similar to a bamboo plate, a silica gel scraper 14 is pasted, a dust loosening brush 11 is planted, a purging fan 15 and a pressure sensor 8 (fixed at the end part of the driving rod 9, specifically, the upper surface of the pressure sensor 8 is fixedly connected with the bottom of the driving rod 9, and the lower surface of the pressure sensor is not connected with the self-resetting elastic base body 7 but is contacted with the self-resetting elastic base body 7 when being pressed downwards). The flat/curved surface conversion driving direct current motor 10 is installed on the limiting groove plate 13 and is in sliding fit with the sliding groove in the limiting groove plate 13, and movable line compression/line resetting of the flat/curved surface conversion driving direct current motor 10 is achieved. Four parabolic guide slideways 25 are symmetrically arranged at two ends of the tooling plate 12 (the width of each guide slideway 25 is larger than the diameter of the sliding shaft 26, and each guide slideway 25 is provided with an inward mounting opening), and the guide slideways are detachably and fixedly mounted at the bottom of the limiting groove plate 13 through screws. The driving rod 9 of the flat/curved surface conversion driving direct current motor 10 adopts an outer wire output shaft which is matched with an inner wire hole in the center of the tooling plate 12, so that synchronous reciprocating line compression/line reset of the outer wire output shaft and the flat/curved surface conversion driving direct current motor 10 is realized. Four sliding shafts 26 are symmetrically arranged at two ends of the self-resetting elastic base body 7, a silica gel scraper 14 is pasted on the lower surface of the self-resetting elastic base body, the embedded dust loosening brush 11 is connected, and the sliding shafts 26 and the guide slide way 25 are combined to ensure that the chord length of the self-resetting elastic base body 7 after deformation is consistent with the chord length of the contact flat/curved surface. When the flat/curved surface conversion drives the direct current motor 10 to move downwards for line compression, the self-resetting elastic base body 7 is compressed, and the pressure value returned by the pressure sensor 8 is gradually increased. When the flat/curved profile is changed to drive the direct current motor 10 to move upwards for linear resetting, the self-resetting elastic matrix 7 is self-resetting (the resetting speed is limited by the moving speed of the output axis of the external wire), and the pressure value returned by the pressure sensor 8 is gradually reduced, so that the adaptive deformation of the flat/curved profile can be realized.
2) The flat/curved profile self-adaptive method comprises the following steps:
the cleaning system operation mode is divided into a plane mode and a curved mode, and the mode switching is realized by a manual switch (a general curved surface cleaning object and a plane cleaning object are positioned in two completely independent areas).
As shown in fig. 7, when the curved mode is switched to the planar mode (for example, the robot is transferred from the trough type heat collection field to the photovoltaic power station), the mode switch is turned to the planar gear on the profile of the parabolic trough type concentrating collector, the flat/curved profile transformation drives the dc motor 10 to rotate reversely, the external screw output shaft and the pressure sensor 8 start to move in a linear reset manner, and the flat/curved profile transformation drives the dc motor 10 to move upwards. The pressure feedback value of the pressure sensor 8 is slowly reduced from F1 to F2 in a time period of 0-t1, the time period is a cleaning force keeping time period (deformation recovery period of the dust loosening brush 11 and the scraper 14), the pressure feedback value of the pressure sensor 8 is suddenly reduced from F2 to F3 (deformation complete reset of the dust loosening brush 11 and the scraper 14) at the time of t1, then the self-reset elastic matrix 7 starts to self-reset, the rotation speed of the direct current motor 10 is constant due to flat/curved surface transformation, namely the linear reset speed of the outer wire output shaft is constant, and a certain limit is provided for the self-reset speed of the self-reset elastic matrix 7, so that the feedback value of the pressure sensor 8 changes in a curve type gradual change mode in the time period of t1-t2, the feedback value of the pressure sensor is reduced to F4 at the time of t2, the self-reset elastic matrix 7 is restored to a flat state, then the feedback value of the pressure sensor 8 is suddenly reduced from F4 to 0, and controls the flat/curved surface conversion to drive the direct current motor 10 to stop rotating, thereby completing the conversion from the curved surface mode to the flat surface mode.
When the plane mode is converted into the curved surface mode (for example, the robot is transferred from a photovoltaic power station to a trough type heat collection field), the mode switch is switched to a curved surface gear on the molded surface of the parabolic trough type light-gathering heat collector, the flat/curved surface transformation drives the direct current motor 10 to rotate forwards, the external thread output shaft and the pressure sensor 8 start linear compression and movement, and the flat/curved surface transformation drives the direct current motor 10 to move downwards.

As shown in fig. 12: when the robot cleans a plane (a photovoltaic array or a flat plate collector array), a connecting bridge does not need to be lapped, and the walking route is basically the same, so the specific operation flow is the same as the cleaning process of the parabolic trough type condenser. At the initial moment, the robot stops at a stand, the stand inclination angle (the optimal installation inclination angle) is the same as that of a photovoltaic array or a flat plate collector array (generally non-tracking installation), and a photovoltaic module converts solar energy into direct current to be output and stored in a lithium battery pack to provide power for the operation process of the robot.
