Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of underground cable detection, and in particular to an intelligent detection device for underground communication pipeline cables. Background Art

[0002] Underground cable refers to the cable that is often buried underground compared with the common overhead line, so it is also called underground cable. The cable is made of one or more mutually insulated conductors wrapped with an insulating layer and a protective layer. It is used to transmit electricity or information from one place to another. After entering the modern society, due to the shortage of urban land, heavy traffic pressure, urban appearance construction and other reasons, large cities generally adopt underground cable transmission. Compared with overhead lines, cables have the advantages of small footprint, reliable transmission, and strong anti-interference ability.

[0003] The cable fault locator is an instrument that can detect the position of cables. Its principle is to send specific electromagnetic wave signals to underground pipelines. The detector uses the principle that when the probe is perpendicular to the ground plane of the magnetic field line, the received signal is minimum (almost zero) to determine the direction and depth of the buried cable. The existing detector is carried out by the cooperation of transmitter and receiver, and the operation process is usually to notify personnel to use handheld devices for detection, which has low work efficiency. In addition, the detection operation for different types of cables and pipelines is cumbersome and the degree of intelligence is low, which needs to be improved. Summary of the invention

[0008] Preferably, the driving end of the driving motor passes through the left side of the top end of the first detection vehicle and is fixedly connected to the middle of the top end of the gear, and the left side of the gear is threadedly connected to the middle of the right end of the threaded rod.

[0009] Preferably, a first drive motor is fixedly connected to the left side of the bottom end of the first probe vehicle, and the front and rear output ends of the first drive motor are connected to the first roller through connecting rods, and the right side of the bottom end of the first probe vehicle is also connected to the first roller through a connecting rod.

[0015] 1.

[0016] 2. The present invention can accurately measure metal pipes with exposed parts through the direct signal line on the first detection vehicle in conjunction with the grounding rod, and can accurately measure cables with exposed parts through the coupling line in conjunction with the clamp. The first detection vehicle and the second detection vehicle can cooperate to accurately measure metal pipes or cables without exposed parts, thereby increasing the applicability of the device. At the same time, through the cooperation of the electromagnet, the magnetic contact metal sheet and the contact switch, timely reminders can be made on the generation of detection results, which is convenient for detection personnel to view and record in time.

[0017] 3.
