Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underground pipeline detection, and in particular relates to an underground metal pipeline detection device and method based on a permanent magnet magnetization field. Background Art

[0002] Urban underground metal pipelines have been widely used in cable laying, gas transportation, and sewage discharge, and are important urban infrastructure. However, due to poor personnel management, inadequate consideration during construction, and data loss during the preservation of buried pipeline information, urban underground pipelines are often damaged by construction, threatening the safety of life and property. Therefore, it is necessary to quickly detect and locate buried metal pipelines, promptly identify the current status of underground pipelines, and provide important basic data for subsequent urban planning and construction management. Among them, high-precision positioning of underground metal pipelines by detecting ground magnetic field information in a trenchless manner has always been the focus and difficulty of underground pipeline detection.

[0003] In the related technology, the main method to solve the pipeline positioning is based on external excitation or geomagnetic field information detection: for example, an external sinusoidal alternating current excitation is used on the metal pipeline, and the conductivity and electromagnetic induction principle of the metal pipeline are used to detect the distribution of the excited magnetic field on the ground, so as to achieve the purpose of locating the metal pipeline. However, it is necessary to have an excavation point on the metal pipeline to apply external excitation, and it is impossible to detect underground trenchless pipelines. For another example, the uniformity of the geomagnetic field and the characteristics of the metal pipeline that can change the distribution of the geomagnetic field can be used to detect the inhomogeneity of the surface magnetic field, so as to judge the position of the underground metal pipeline and achieve the positioning purpose. However, the magnetic anomaly excited by the metal pipeline in the geomagnetic field is small, and the magnitude of the detected magnetic field is small, resulting in large detection errors and inaccurate positioning.

[0092] Among them, r 1 、r 2 are the distances between the center points of the two magnetic field sensors A and B and the upper surface of the permanent magnet; d is the thickness of the permanent magnet; h is 1 is the height of the lower surface of the permanent magnet from the ground; B″ h-A , B″ h-B They are the horizontal components of the magnetic field generated at points A and B when there are only underground metal pipelines.

[0093] For example, in the embodiment of the present invention, the relationship between the magnetic flux density and the buried depth of the underground pipeline is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the measured buried depth h of the underground metal pipeline is 0.93m, the actual distance is 1m, and the positioning error in the vertical direction is less than 10cm.

[0094] It should be noted that the horizontal component of the magnetic field generated by the underground metal pipeline is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. The three-axis magnetic field sensor should be placed horizontally and the coordinate system of the three-axis magnetic field component should maintain a one-to-one correspondence with the actual x, y, and z three-axis coordinate system. The horizontal component of the magnetic field refers to the magnetic field component projected onto the horizontal plane, that is, the composite value of the x- and y-axis magnetic field components. The vertical component of the magnetic field refers to the magnetic field component projected onto a straight line perpendicular to the horizontal plane, that is, the z-axis magnetic field component.

[0095] The underground metal pipeline detection method based on permanent magnetic magnetization field provided in Example 2 of the present invention utilizes the higher intensity magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet to detect the horizontal position of the detection device when the vertical component of the magnetic field passes through zero, thereby realizing the horizontal orientation of the underground pipeline position; for the horizontal component detection generated by the underground metal pipeline, the magnetic field sensor is used to measure the quadratic change of the magnetic field, which is inversely proportional to the buried depth of the pipeline, and the buried depth of the metal pipeline is solved, thereby solving the problem of needing to excavate the detection point during pipeline detection and the small amplitude of the detection signal.

[0096] It is known from common technical knowledge that the present invention can be implemented by other embodiments that do not deviate from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the above disclosed embodiments are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
