Problems solved by technology

The traditional pipeline robot lens uses an analog camera with low pixels and low definition, which cannot clearly reflect the subtle defects in the pipeline; and the traditional pipeline robot rotation lens can only rotate 345° in a circular direction, and the circular detection efficiency is low
[0004] For example, the Chinese utility model patent (notification number: CN208568573U) disclosed a pressure pipeline detection device in 2018, including a lighting lamp, a detection lens, a mounting block, a base, a tire, a spoke, a rotating shaft, a rear wheel, a lifting frame, and a control body , a rotating device, a connecting shaft, a fixed frame, and the illuminating lamp is embedded and installed on the front surface of the mounting block, and the front surface of the mounting block is embedded with a detection lens; the detection lens can be rotated through a multi-stage gear and a rotating shaft, but the rotation angle is limited. and cannot rotate continuously
[0005] In addition, after the existing inspection lens is used for a long time, or when the lens is turned on in cold weather, it is prone to fogging. If the fogging is serious, the picture will be blurred and the pipeline inspection cannot be performed, which will seriously affect the overall efficiency.
[0006] Moreover, the main purpose of pipeline inspection is to detect the type and size of defects in the pipeline, but there is no standard reference object in the pipeline, and the size of the defect can only be evaluated by the diameter of the pipeline or the size of conventional objects, resulting in the inability to accurately measure the defect in the pipeline size

[0057] The lens body 1 includes a housing 101, a front cover 103, and a rear cover 102. The housing 101 is provided with a movement 3 inside, and a glass lens is provided on the front cover 103 corresponding to the movement 3 4. The inner side of the glass lens 4 is provided with a lens heating wire 5, a pair of parallel laser beams 6 are provided on both sides of the glass lens 4, and the laser beam 6 passes through the fixed plate 8 and the glass lens 4, The front end cover 103 is packaged together at the end of the casing 101; the inner side of the rear end cover 102 is provided with a signal transfer board 9 connected to the movement 3, and the rear end cover 102 is connected to the signal The adapter plate 9 is packaged ...

Embodiment 2

[0082] This embodiment provides the working mode of the rotating lens in the first embodiment during pipe inspection.

[0083] Specific as Picture 9 As shown, the rotating lens is connected to the aviation socket 29 on the pan / tilt on the robot car body 28 through the aviation plug 22, and is fixed and sealed by a spiral groove type locking structure; the rotating lens follows the robot car body 28 are placed together in the pipeline for pipeline inspection, and the upper computer connected to the robot car body 28 is monitored by video;

[0084] When working, move the pipeline robot system to the top of the pipeline inspection well, power on to check the working condition of the entire system, put the pipeline robot body 28 and the rotating lens into the pipeline mouth through the rope and tail cable, turn on the lights, and set the parameters. The collection software controls the robot body 28 and the rotating lens to advance in the pipeline, and the video monitoring software di...

Embodiment 3

[0086] This embodiment provides the detection steps that the rotating lens in the first embodiment will apply when performing pipeline detection, and the details are as follows:

[0087] (1) Defogging control: When the lens body 1 in the pipeline is found to be fogged in the video, turn on the lens heating wire 5 to heat through the defogging button on the control software, and the heating wire will automatically cut off after two minutes. Click the defogging button again and repeat until the fog disappears;

[0088] (2) Rotation control: When there is a loop defect in the video, control the robot body 28 to move to the vicinity of the defect through software, control the lens body 1 to tilt up, make the loop defect in the middle of the video screen, and then control the lens body 1 to be level 360 Rotate one circle to observe and record the image of the entire ring defect, and then click the horizontal reset function, the lens body 1 will reset to the horizontal state, and continu...

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pipeline detection, and in particular to a multifunctional rotating lens for pipeline detection. Background technique [0002] Pipelines are widely used in many industries and are closely related to people's lives. In order to improve the life of the pipeline and prevent accidents caused by damage or blockage of the pipeline, the pipeline must be regularly maintained. However, due to the complexity of the pipeline, manual inspection cannot be achieved in many places, and a pipeline robot that replaces manual inspection has emerged. [0003] At present, the mainstream testing method for pipeline inspection is CCTV video inspection, which is to put a crawler equipped with a camera into the pipeline to be tested, and watch and record the internal image of the pipeline while crawling, and intuitively distinguish the defect type, size and level of the pipeline . The rotating lens communicates with the crawler and ...
