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

Embodiment 1

[0056] Such as Figure 1-8 As shown, a multifunctional rotating lens for pipeline detection, the rotating lens includes a lens body 1, a rotating assembly connected to the lens body 1, and an electronic control unit 2 connected to the rotating assembly;

[0057] The lens main body 1 includes a casing 101, a front end cover 103, and a rear end cover 102. A movement 3 is arranged inside the casing 101, and a glass lens is arranged on the front end cover 103 corresponding to the movement 3 4. The inner side of the glass lens 4 is provided with a lens heating wire 5, and the two sides of the glass lens 4 are provided with a pair of parallel laser beams 6, and the laser beams 6 pass through the fixing plate 8 and the glass lens 4, the 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 adapter plate 9 connected to the movement 3, and the rear end cover 102 is connected to the signal The adapt...

Embodiment 2

[0082] This embodiment provides the working mode of the rotating lens in the first embodiment when performing pipeline inspection.

[0083] specific as Figure 9 As shown, the rotating lens is connected with the aviation socket 29 on the platform on the robot car body 28 through the aviation plug 22, and adopts a spiral slot type locking structure to fix and seal; the rotating lens is fixed and sealed with the robot car body 28 are placed together in the pipeline for pipeline detection, and the host computer connected to the robot car body 28 monitors through video;

[0084] When working, move the pipeline robot system to the top of the pipeline detection well, power on to check the working conditions of the entire system, put the pipeline robot body 28 and the rotating lens into the pipeline mouth through the rope and the tail cable as a whole, turn on the lights, and set the parameters. The robot car body 28 and the rotating lens are controlled to advance in the pipeline th...

Embodiment 3

[0086] This embodiment provides the detection steps that the rotating lens in Embodiment 1 will be applied to when performing pipeline detection, specifically as follows:

[0087] (1) Defog control: When the lens body 1 in the pipeline is found to be foggy on 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 power off after two minutes. If there is still fog You can click the defogging button again and repeat until the fog is eliminated;

[0088] (2) Rotation control: When a circular defect appears on the video, the robot body 28 is controlled by software to move to the vicinity of the defect, and the lens main body 1 is controlled to tilt up so that the circumferential defect is in the middle of the video screen, and then the lens main body 1 is controlled horizontally at 360° Rotate one circle at a degree to observe and record the entire circumferential defect picture, and then cli...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pipeline detection, 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, regular maintenance must be carried out on the pipeline. However, due to the complexity of the pipeline, manual inspection cannot be realized in many places, and a pipeline robot that replaces manual inspection came into being. [0003] At present, the mainstream test method for pipeline inspection is CCTV video inspection, which is to put a crawler equipped with a camera into the pipeline to be tested, watch and record the internal images of the pipeline while crawling, and intuitively distinguish the defect type, size and grade of the pipeline . The rotating lens performs video comm...
