Description
Technical field:
the utility model relates to the field of pipeline robots, in particular to a structural design of a self-adaptive pipeline robot.
The background technology is as follows:
in the current society, various pipelines are visible everywhere, and the pipeline has the advantages of safe transportation and high efficiency, is widely applied to the fields of oil and gas transportation, nuclear power and the like, and provides great convenience for our life and production. However, due to the influence of temperature, pressure, corrosion of the conveying medium and the service life of the pipeline, problems such as cracks, corrosion and the like of the pipeline can be caused, and leakage of the conveying medium can be caused. So to eliminate the potential hazard of the pipeline, the pipeline must be inspected and maintained periodically. Most of the interior space of the pipe is limited and thus the pipe robot is generated.
The pipe robot can be classified into a passive type and an active type according to a motion principle. According to the driving principle, the device is mainly divided into wheels, crawler-type wheels, crawling wheels, multi-foot wheels and the like; to accommodate different pipe diameters, the pipe robot must have a mechanism to adjust the pipe diameter. The diameter-changing mechanism of the conventional pipeline robot mainly comprises four types of spring pre-tightening diameter-changing mechanisms, worm and worm wheel pre-tightening diameter-changing mechanisms, lifter pre-tightening diameter-changing mechanisms and screw nut pair pre-tightening diameter-changing mechanisms. The spring pre-tightening reducing mechanism has the greatest advantages that additional energy is not needed, the spring pre-tightening reducing mechanism can automatically adapt to the change of pipe diameters, and the spring pre-tightening reducing mechanism is good in adaptability. However, the disadvantage is the small variation range and the need to adjust the pre-tension of the spring in advance before installation. The worm and worm wheel pre-tightening reducing mechanism and the lifter pre-tightening reducing mechanism can realize wide-range reducing, but the required driving force is large, and the strength requirement on the mechanism is high; the screw-nut pair pretension reducing mechanism has simple space layout and small driving force, but is not enough in the axial direction.

Further, when the self-adaptive adjusting device works, the springs are pre-tightened, and when the pipe diameter of the pipeline is changed from large to small, the springs can be continuously compressed, so that the movable supporting plate is driven to move upwards, and the self-adaptive adjustment of the small pipe diameter is realized; when the pipe diameter of the pipeline is changed from small to large, the springs are loosened, but still in a compressed state, and the movable supporting plate is displaced downwards, so that the self-adaptive adjustment of the large pipe diameter is realized.
Still further, the movable support plate moves on the slide bar, and the spring moves on the spring guide bar at the same time, so that the system stability during movement can be increased.
Still further, system power is provided by the motor, and through bevel gear cooperation with power transmission to the wheel, add sealed shell simultaneously, guarantee the security of driving system.
Still further, the whole design adopts symmetrical design, and upper and lower two partial structures are the same, and the centre passes through hinged joint, when passing through the return bend, can have good trafficability characteristic, makes whole structure more nimble, and simultaneously, three wheel legs are 120 degrees symmetrical distribution in the form of being separated by on the upper supporting plate, can effectively solve the inhomogeneous condition of atress. The two motors are symmetrically arranged on the corresponding wheel legs of the upper part and the lower part, so that the power can be balanced and output.
Furthermore, because the length of the wheel leg and the spring influence, the effective working pipe diameter of the self-adaptive pipeline robot pre-tensioned by the spring is 160 mm-480 mm. The included angle theta between the wheel leg and the spring sleeve is 15 degrees or more and 75 degrees or less.
