This paper introduces a search-and-rescue robot system used for remote sensing of the underground coal mine environment, which is composed of an operating control unit and two mobile robots with explosion-proof and waterproof function. This robot system is designed to observe and collect information of the coal mine environment through remote control. Thus, this system can be regarded as a multifunction sensor, which realizes remote sensing. When the robot system detects danger, it will send out signals to warn rescuers to keep away. The robot consists of two gas sensors, two cameras, a two-way audio, a 1 km-long fiber-optic cable for communication and a mechanical explosion-proof manipulator. Especially, the manipulator is a novel explosion-proof manipulator for cleaning obstacles, which has 3-degree-of-freedom, but is driven by two motors. Furthermore, the two robots can communicate in series for 2 km with the operating control unit. The development of the robot system may provide a reference for developing future search-and-rescue systems.
本文介绍了一种用于地下煤矿环境遥感的搜索救援机器人系统,该系统由一个操作控制单元和两个具有防爆防水功能的移动机器人组成。该机器人系统旨在通过遥控观察和收集煤矿环境信息。因此,该系统可被视为一个实现遥感的多功能传感器。当机器人系统检测到危险时,它会发出信号警告救援人员远离。该机器人由两个气体传感器、两个摄像头、一个双向音频、一根1公里长的用于通信的光纤电缆和一个机械防爆机械手组成。特别地,该机械手是一种用于清理障碍物的新型防爆机械手,具有3个自由度,但由两个电机驱动。此外,这两个机器人可以与操作控制单元进行2公里的串联通信。该机器人系统的开发可为未来搜索救援系统的开发提供参考。
