Abstract

An apparatus for generating a visual representation may include an elongated flexible member adapted to be removably inserted into an enclosure; a dispensing mechanism operable to selectively dispense and retract the elongated flexible member; a counter configured to determine an amount of the elongated flexible member dispensed by the dispensing mechanism; a controller configured to receive the amount of the elongated flexible member dispensed from the counter and determine a rate at which the elongated flexible member is dispensed; and a display in data communication with the controller. The controller causes the rate at which the flexible member is dispensed to be displayed in relation to a visual representation of the enclosure on the display.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a visual representation of an enclosed space, and more particularly, to a graphical representation of an enclosed inspection area. Background technique [0002] Enclosed areas, such as pipes, drains, conduits, other passageways, and enclosed spaces are often difficult to service and inspect due to the limited accessibility of these areas. Detectors or pipe cleaners are often employed to detect, for example, blockages, obstructions or damage in closed spaces. The pipe cleaner may be equipped with an auger, drill or other tool to cut away at least a portion of the obstruction or obstruction, thereby facilitating free flow through the enclosed space. [0003] The root systems of mature trees can cause recurring problems with underground plumbing in many homes and other structures. Roots can grow through the pipe, impeding or blocking flow through the pipe. As mentioned above, pipe cleaners with cutting tools are able ...
