High rise glass curtain wall cleaning system
CN106618360
The invention discloses a high-rise glass curtain wall cleaning system which comprises a roof fixing device and a cleaning mechanism, wherein a steel cable connecting head is arranged on the roof fixing device and connected with a steel cable track; the cleaning mechanism consists of an electric cleaning disc and an electric push rod which are connected through an electric sliding table, the electric sliding table controls the distance between the electric cleaning disc and a glass curtain wall, the electric cleaning disc can move left and right along the electric push rod, furthermore, the cleaning mechanism and an electric lifting device are connected with the steel cable track through a lead screw nut, and do linear up-down motion along the electric lifting device; a cleaning solution container is arranged on one side of the electric cleaning disc, the electric cleaning disc is connected with a pressurized cleaning device and further connected with a water supply hose, wherein a liquid supercharger is arranged on the pressurized cleaning device. The high-rise glass curtain wall cleaning system replaces the traditional mode that the glass curtain wall is fixed and moved by means of a sucker, and the stability and the flexibility of the system can be effectively enhanced. This lifting cable robot, which can be moved up and down in the direction of 2 rigid cables by 2 motors in the middle plate of the robot, is also used only on smooth surfaces and is only for cleaning.
In general, the presented samples have a common goal, which is to wash and paint the exterior walls smoothly. Each of the above designs has its strengths and weaknesses, but they are all designed for smooth surfaces and unobstructed (albeit small) walls. It requires a mechanism for moving freely and without contact on the wall surface for proper painting, a mechanism for spraying paint or washing liquid at different angles and at different depths. As a result, the differences between the design presented in this file and the previous designs can be divided into two categories:
The first category is the differences in the movement mechanism of the robot, which is responsible for delivering the paint gun or brush to a specific point for painting or washing. In the proposed design, only 2 motors are used, one is responsible for raising the middle plate of the robot and the other is responsible for tightening the cable rail of the robot so that the middle plate moves in a certain direction and with a certain strength and prevent screen rotation. As a result, it has important features compared to the presented examples, such as increasing flexibility, reducing construction and execution costs, being versatile, as well as the ability to be installed on the roofs of buildings or even on scaffolding.
The second category of differences is in the practice of spraying paint, in which there are important features to be able to apply the best performance in different parts of a building with any depth or angle of spraying. In the proposed design, unlike previous designs, the paint spraying mechanism has been added and the robot, in addition to being able to reach any part of the building without touching its wall, can also spray paint at different angles as well as at depths or different side levels. As a result, the ability to reach these points is a unique feature that originates from the manipulator mechanism. Also, the modularity of the manipulator gives us the feature that instead of spraying paint, the robot can be used as a robot for cleaning building surfaces.
The presented device is an intelligent robot that can be used to paint and clean the exterior surface of all buildings with a variety of architectures and materials used in the facade, and the ability to access all points on the building surface, including recesses and exits and Performs painting and washing operations on surfaces. And because of its cable, it has no height limit and can be used for all tall buildings. This robot can be adjusted to semi-automatic and automatic mode. In semi-automatic mode, the user controls all matters wirelessly with just a lever, and in automatic mode, according to the planned plan, spraying and moving work by The minicomputer is done. The system of recording and instantaneous display of images from the moving screen and coloring place is also used in this robot so that the user or observer is informed about the operation at any time. Due to the high accuracy of positioning the device and the precise movement of the moving plate, this robot can spray paint or detergent in any position and direction on the surface of the building.
Today, due to the expansion of communities and the lack of urban space, lifestyles have changed and villas have been replaced by apartments and high-rise buildings and towers. Washing, cleaning and painting these high-rise buildings has always been a risky, time-consuming, costly and challenging task that has yet to be addressed comprehensively.
The lack of a suitable solution to this problem has caused some owners and residents of the building not to clean the surface and facade of the building or paint because it is challenging, which in addition to disrupting the visual appearance of cities, also causes the transmission of pollution. Or they use traditional methods, such as scaffolding or the installation of forklifts, or hanging from a window for cleaning, painting or cleaning the facade, which is associated with many risks and is time consuming and costly.
Therefore, finding an easier way to paint the building surfaces or wash the facade of the building in a simple way and with the help of new technologies and by the robot, with a suitable and optimal cost is considered as a technical challenge. On the other hand, designing and building a robot with these features along with its appropriate cost is challenging, and the robot must be able to paint automatically, semi-automatically or manually in different conditions for different buildings. Each building has its own characteristics, for example the presence of thicknesses, protrusions, doors and windows and uneven points are found in most buildings, and the fact that a robot can perform the task of painting the building correctly is another big challenge.
As a result, access to any point of the building wall and indented and angled points, as well as proper spraying of paint or proper application of surface washing method to the exterior walls of the building is one of the technical problems in this field and the low cost of solving all these challenges is not provided for it. The presented device is an intelligent robot that has been designed and built to solve these problems as well as reduce financial, time and energy costs. It is able to position the device with high accuracy in order to move the moving screen and achieve the desired position and direction in spray paint. Painting and cleaning the exterior surface of all buildings with a variety of facades and materials used.
Solution of problem
The presented device is an intelligent robot that paints and cleans the exterior surfaces of tall buildings, which has the ability to access all parts of the building surface, including roughness, and to perform painting and washing operations on the surfaces.
The design and construction of this robot is divided into two parts.
Design and Construction of a contactless robot for the above purposes which can access the preferred position on the building surface
The manipulator to be installed on the end-effector of the robot,
The design of these two parts is done with a mechatronic view in order to achieve the above goals.
Design and construction of a robot for contactless moving on the outer wall of the building.
In order to construct a non-contact moving mechanism on the outer wall of the building with the aim of bringing the end-effector in front of the point, that should be painted or washed, an actuator with remote control is used to move the end-effector on the wall in the vertical axis to move in the horizontal axis, the manual displacement is used, and to move the operator, it moves the lower and upper part of the device in the desired direction to the device control the position of the robot end-effector.
The transfer plate on the wall surface of the building must have a suitable rigidity in the direction perpendicular to the wall surface in order to guarantee its distance from the wall and against the disturbances, because the hanging of the middle plate from the wall allows rotation and rotation. When there is an external disturbance, it becomes like wind, and on the other hand, a robotic manipulator brushing and washing can apply force to the wall. For this purpose, 2 cables under maximum tension are connected in parallel from the ground floor (on the base on the ground of the device) to the upper part of the device (on the roof or ...) so that the plate moves between them. In this way, the end-effector moves in a certain direction on one side and on the other hand, the possibility of free movement of the final executor of the robot is taken.
With this method, the robot can apply force to the wall without moving the vertical axis on the wall, and this feature can be used to wash the surface or some painting tasks.
The designed system done in this section is shown in . This image shows the components of the end-effector. In this picture, the robotic manipulator is shown in a simple way, but the robotic manipulator is presented in detail in .
The accuracy of positioning in the robot depends on the type of electrical and mechanical devices used. In this device, according to the engine and gearbox used, the accuracy of the device to control the position of its moving plate is about 2 cm. As a result, the moving plate can be moved with a resolution of 2 cm, and the speed of the device can be different depending on its type of operation and painting, and the electric motor used can be adjusted for different speeds, as well as spraying accuracy. It also depends on the tools used in the robotic manipulator, which are described below.
The device is programmed in such a way that a person can control it without the need for any special technical background. This feature is created by a joystick and an online image received from the camera connected to the final executor of the robot, and as a result, it is easy to use the device at any height and its control is simplified.
The components of this part are as shown in of each issue, some of which we describe: an electric motor that is responsible for the vertical transfer of the moving plate, the movable base of the upper part of the device, a gearbox that In order to increase the power of the motor, it is connected to the motor and the drum, the motion control panel and the motor power with wireless communication capability to control the vertical movement by the operator or automatically by the minicomputer. Clamps for tightening cables and support of the removable plate of the device, the clip for connecting the cable to the movable plate of the device.
Other components of this device include a removable plate of the device on which a robotic manipulator and nozzle or a washing brush are installed, a pulley that is used to pass the clamping cables and to the plate. It is connected and designed from the bottom to the top of the device in order to harden the movement of the moving plate and in the 4 corners of the device, there is a control panel for the robotic manipulator and the spray nozzle, the part of the robotic manipulator and the nozzle that connects to the moving plate, the paint pump hose or the washing liquid to the robotic manipulator and the nozzle.
This part of the robot also has the following: Support cable tightening drum for the moving plate which is connected to the gearbox and then to the lower electric motor, cable and gear tightening cable, the paint and air pump, which is installed on this device in order to send the ink to the controlled nozzle installed on the moving plate of the device, displays the image of the camera mounted on the moving plate for better control of spraying, Joystick (lever) and controller of the whole device wirelessly, which is responsible for controlling the movement of the device and controlling the nozzle and the robotic manipulator.
As a result, the moving surface of the device is controlled wirelessly by a joystick. This control includes moving the plate to which the robotic manipulator is attached, as well as controlling all movements of the robot manipulator as well as the spray nozzle command. This joystick is used when the device control is in operator mode and semi-automatic, and in automatic mode, this joystick has only the task of controlling the safety of the device, and the device itself can paint and clean according to the building plan according to the previous plan.
The rigid cables of the device make the robot's displacement plate more rigid, and as a result, when an external agent wants to move the plate, these cables will not allow, and as a result, the plate will be able to apply force to the wall. This feature can be used in brushing and washing cases.
Design of robotic manipulator for spray paint nozzle
The second part of the design is related to the robotic manipulator and the paint spray nozzle to the desired point, which we will describe in this section:
The robotic manipulator connected to the moving plate of the device is responsible for bringing the spray nozzle to the desired point with different depth or angle. As a result, it must be able to have a degree of freedom at different angles, and move perpendicular to the wall, and according to the defined need, the robotic manipulator has 3 degrees of freedom, 2 degrees of angular freedom and one includes degree of transitional freedom.
This robotic manipulator is attached to a movable plate and as a result can be placed anywhere in the building and spray paint at any desired depth and at a suitable angle. This desired depth is based on the maximum linear length of the dependent manipulator. shows the design of this mechanism, which has the above features.
As you can see in 2, in this design, there is a linear joint and 2 revolute joints that are connected and form the robotic manipulator of the device. The robotic manipulator is attached to the movable plate by a clamp. The components of this manipulator are introduced as follows:
Sliding linear forward joint shaft (No. 1 in ), the camera transmitting the image to the operator's available monitoring system, the robotic manipulator linear joint, which is responsible for moving the manipulator perpendicular to the wall, links to the second and rotating joints of the manipulator that move around the axis parallel to the wall surface, electric motors to control the spray angle, Electrical spray gun, as well as the moving plate of the device (No. 8 ) and air hose and paint liquid that attaches to the pistol.
This manipulator is controlled wirelessly by the joystick at the bottom, and it also has the ability to be manual and automated, which in automatic mode, performs spraying and moving work according to the planned map. The pistol mounted on the final executor of the robotic manipulator sprays remotely, and the paint liquid and air pressure reach it through two hoses and spray the paint pistol with appropriate electricity. At the same time, a camera is transmitting images from the moving screen and coloring location to the bottom display system at any time so that the user or observer is in the process of performing the operation at any time.
As a result, the final system is completely built by connecting the robotic manipulator to the device and can be used to perform the stated purposes. This device is completely electric for the vertical movement and paint and its robotic manipulator is powered by city electricity.
The speed of linear motion in the designed robotic manipulator is about 1 cm / s in the direction perpendicular to the wall and about 50 ° / s in the angle movements, and as a result it can spray in different directions with speed. It can also paint the depths and recesses of surfaces. The resolution of the position resolution in the designed robotic manipulator is about 0.1 cm in the direction of linear movements and 1 degree in the rotational axes.
All the parameters of the robotic manipulator are controlled by a joystick that controls the moving plate, and in fact only one joystick is used to control the whole device and the manipulator.
Part of the design costs in the robotic manipulator part, which also has an optimal design and its cost is minimized to a reasonable extent.
