[0063] An indicator light 612 electrically connected to the small boat controller is arranged on the top surface of the floating box 605.
[0064] The cooperation between the floating box 605 and the support column 601 enables the floating box 605 to vertically move on the support column 601. At the same time, the air storage cavity in the floating box 605 can ensure that the floating box 605 always floats on the water surface to prevent the charging board 608 from being immersed in the water; the wireless charging of the small boat storage battery is realized by using the small boat main charging coil and the small boat secondary charging coil 611, making the charging more convenient without human participation and improving the endurance of the detection boat; the stability of the detection boat during charging is improved by buckling the rotating rod 712 with the positioning notch 613; the two guiding rods 609 are used to guide the detection boat to ensure that the rotating rod 712 enters the positioning notch 613. At the same time, by using the distribution mode of each small boat main charging coil and the small boat secondary charging coil 611, it is ensured that at least one main charging coil can be docked with the secondary charging coil after the rotating rod 712 enters the positioning notch 613, ensuring that charging can be carried out.
[0065] In the dam detection system provided by the present invention, the main controller, the boat controller, and the trolley controller all adopt the existing single-chip microcomputer control modules for coordinated control; the main wireless communication module, the trolley wireless communication module, and the boat wireless communication module all adopt the existing wireless communication modules; the trolley GPS module and the boat GPS module both adopt the existing GPS modules; the position sensor 731, the boat ranging sensor 13, and the trolley ranging sensor 12 all adopt the existing ranging sensors; the trolley memory, the main memory, and the boat memory all adopt the existing memories; the sonar sensor 15 adopts the existing sonar sensor; the water quality sensor 14 all adopts the existing water quality sensors; the boat camera 711 and the infrared camera 10 both adopt the existing infrared cameras; the 3D camera 11 adopts the existing 3D camera; the mobile drive motor 425, the rotation drive motor 511, the pitch adjustment motor 503, the orientation adjustment motor 713, the retraction drive motor 722, and the swing drive motor 804 all adopt the existing stepper motors; the mobile drive circuit, the rotation drive circuit, the pitch adjustment circuit, the orientation adjustment circuit, the retraction drive circuit, and the swing drive circuit all adopt the corresponding stepper motor drive circuits; the main charging coil 301 of the trolley, the slave charging coil 304 of the trolley, the main charging coil of the boat, and the slave charging coil 611 of the boat all adopt the existing wireless charging coils; the main charging circuit of the trolley, the slave charging circuit of the trolley, the main charging circuit of the boat, and the slave charging circuit of the boat all adopt the corresponding wireless charging circuit modules.
[0066] When the dam detection system provided by the present invention is installed and used, the running route of the detection boat is preset in advance, and the detection coordinates are set on the running route. The detection boat runs along the preset running route, and the inspection trolley runs synchronously along the inspection track 1. When reaching the detection coordinates, both the detection boat and the inspection trolley stop moving for data detection.
[0067] The rotation drive motor 511 drives the rotation of the rotation driving gear 512 under the control of the trolley controller, so that the rotation driven gear 513 drives the adjustment column 501 to rotate. The pitch adjustment motor 503 drives the pitch driving worm 504 to rotate under the control of the trolley controller, so as to perform all-round image acquisition on the 3D camera 11 and the infrared camera 10, and store the images corresponding to the current coordinate information in the trolley memory.
[0068] The retraction drive motor 722 drives the winding wheel 28 to rotate under the control of the boat controller, and lowers the sonar sensor 15 for leakage data detection.
[0069] The swing drive motor 804 drives the detection rod 805 to rotate under the control of the boat controller. The swing rod 803 drives the U-shaped rod 802 to swing. When swinging towards the water quality sensor 14, the water bucket 801 always keeps its barrel mouth facing upwards and covers each water quality sensor 14, so that the detection ends of each water quality sensor 14 extend into the water in the water bucket 801 to perform water quality data detection.
[0070] The water leakage data, water quality data and the current coordinate information are stored in the boat memory in a corresponding manner. After the data of the current monitoring point is completed, the sonar sensor 15 is retracted; and the U-shaped rod 802 is driven to swing in the reverse direction. At this time, the shift lever 807 blocks the rotation of the water bucket 801, so that the axis of the water bucket 801 is parallel to the axis of the swing rod 803 until the water in the water bucket 801 is poured out.
[0071] When all the coordinate data are detected, the trolley controller and the boat controller respectively send the data in the trolley memory and the boat memory to the main controller, which integrates and stores the data in the main memory, and finally uploads the data to the remote control center through the 4G communication module.
[0072] When the trolley controller detects through the trolley voltage acquisition circuit that the battery power of the trolley reaches or is lower than the threshold, it drives the inspection vehicle to drive to the trolley charging station for charging. At this time, the inspection boat continues to run for detection; when the battery of the trolley is fully charged, the trolley controller controls the inspection vehicle to continue to detect each undetected coordinate point one by one.
[0073] When the boat controller detects through the boat voltage acquisition circuit that the battery power of the boat reaches or is lower than the threshold, it drives the inspection boat to drive to the positioning charging mechanism for charging. At this time, the inspection vehicle continues to run for detection; when the battery of the boat is fully charged, the boat controller controls the inspection vehicle to continue to detect each undetected coordinate point one by one.
[0074] As described above, although the present invention has been shown and described with reference to specific preferred embodiments, it should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention itself. Various changes can be made in its form and details without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention defined by the appended claims.
