[0002] Pipelines are important infrastructure in modern society. Pipelines can be used for the transmission of substances such as tap water, rainwater, wastewater, and petroleum.

Therefore, it is necessary to detect, maintain, and clean the pipelines in a timely and effective manner.

[0003] In some related technologies, pipeline detection is carried out manually. For example, inspectors will patrol along the pipeline route to observe whether there are problems such as cracks, corrosion, and water leakage on the pipeline surface.

Especially for pipelines buried deep underground or difficult to access, it is more difficult to carry out manual detection.

[0033] Through the cleaning component, pollutants such as sediment in the pipeline 310 to be detected can be cleaned to prevent interfering with the pipeline detection by the detection component. Through the blocking member 220, the upstream pipeline 320 of the pipeline 310 to be detected can be blocked, and the liquid in the pipeline 310 to be detected can be drained to detect the pipeline 310 to be detected, which can prevent the liquid in the pipeline 310 to be detected from interfering with the detection; by moving the parking area 2122, the position of the sub-vehicle 100 can be adjusted so that the parking area 2122 is aligned with the pipe orifice of the pipeline 310 to be detected, so as to facilitate the sub-vehicle 100 to enter the pipeline 310 to be detected without manual transfer, which saves time and effort and can improve the pipeline detection efficiency.

The optical camera 121 is connected to the YOLO image recognition system. The infrared camera 122 can detect the pipe wall of the pipeline 310 to be detected by using infrared thermal imaging technology, and can use the thermal imaging results combined with the deep learning model of local leakage diseases of the drainage pipeline to locate the specific damaged position.

In other words, the position of the pipeline disease can be recognized through the infrared camera 122, and the size of the pipeline disease can be recognized through the optical camera 121.

[0037] Optionally, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the detection component further includes an exciter 124 and a vibration sensor 125.

[0041] Optionally, the cleaning assembly may further include a suction device, and the sediment or other garbage that has separated from the pipe wall can be sucked into the accommodation cavity of the suction device through the suction device, which will not be elaborated here.

[0042] Optionally, referring to Figure 3 , the sub-vehicle 100 includes a first housing 150. The first housing 150 is connected above the first vehicle body 110 through a gimbal pan-tilt 160. The optical camera 121, the infrared camera 122, the high-pressure water gun 131 and the lighting lamp 123 are all installed on the first housing 150. The gimbal pan-tilt 160 can drive the first housing 150 to rotate in all directions, so that the focusing positions of the optical camera 121 and the infrared camera 122, the lighting direction of the lighting lamp 123 and the impact direction of the high-pressure water gun 131 can be adjusted.

[0043] Optionally, the optical camera 121, the infrared camera 122 and the lighting lamp 123 are all installed inside the first housing 150, and the infrared camera 122 is installed above the optical camera 121, and the lighting lamps 123 are installed on both sides of the optical camera 121. Optionally, the high-pressure water guns 131 are installed on both sides of the first housing 150. Arranging the optical camera 121, the infrared camera 122 and the lighting lamp 123 inside the first housing 150 can prevent the high-pressure water gun 131 or the residual liquid 321 in the pipeline from damaging the camera and can protect the optical camera 121, the infrared camera 122 and the lighting lamp 123.

[0044] Optionally, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 2, the second vehicle body 210 includes a base 211 and a cabin 212.

[0045] Optionally, a switchable hatch door is provided at the hatch 2121, and the hatch 2121 can be opened and closed by opening and closing the hatch door. It should be noted that when the upstream pipeline 320 of the pipeline 310 to be detected is not blocked, the hatch door can be in a closed state to prevent the liquid 321 in the pipeline from entering the sub-vehicle 100 and damaging the sub-vehicle 100.

[0046] Optionally, in some embodiments, the sealing member 220 is an airbag. The mother vehicle 200 further includes an inflation device, and the inflation device is communicated with the airbag.

Optionally, the first driving component can be arranged inside the first vehicle body 110, and the second driving component can be arranged inside the base 211.

[0050] Other components and operations of the pipeline detection device according to the embodiments of the present application are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0051] The embodiments of the present application also provide a pipeline detection method, which mainly includes the following steps:

[0052] Step S100: Block the upstream pipeline 320 of the pipeline 310 to be detected through the blocking member 220, and the sub-vehicle 100 enters the pipeline 310 to be detected from the parking area 2122.

[0053] Optionally, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 , the pipeline detection device (i.e., the mother vehicle 200 loaded with the sub-vehicle 100) can be lifted by a hoisting device such as a winch, and the pipeline detection device is lifted and placed into the pipeline inspection entrance 330. Adjust the position of the hatch 2121 through the lifting turntable 213 so that the hatch 2121 is aligned with the entrance of the pipeline 310 to be detected, and the airbag is aligned with the upstream pipeline 320 of the pipeline 310 to be detected. Open the inflation device to inflate the airbag, so that the airbag expands to block the upstream pipeline 320, thereby intercepting the liquid 321 in the upstream pipeline 320, draining the liquid in the pipeline 310 to be detected, opening the hatch door, and the sub-vehicle 100 enters the pipeline 310 to be detected from the parking area 2122.

[0054] Step S200: Identify the location of the pipeline disease through the infrared camera 122, and identify the size of the pipeline disease through the optical camera 121.

[0055] It can be understood that the internal space of the pipeline is narrow and the light is insufficient. If only optical imaging is used, it is difficult to effectively identify diseases such as cracks, peeling, and rust in the pipeline lining that cause pipeline leakage. Therefore, the infrared camera 122 can adopt infrared thermal technology to identify the temperature difference areas caused by different water contents, and then identify the location of the pipeline disease. When the pipeline disease is located, a high-definition close-range optical camera 121 can be used to monitor the crack width and calculate the defect area to obtain the size of the pipeline disease.

[0056] Optionally, in some embodiments, if there are sediments or other debris in the pipeline 310 to be detected, cleaning components such as a high-pressure water gun 131 can be used for cleaning to prevent the sediments or other debris from interfering with the detection. At the same time, the pipeline can be purified and dredged.

[0057] Step S300: Non-destructively detect the voids in the base cushion of the pipeline 310 to be detected through the exciter 124 and the vibration sensor 125, and analyze and process the impact elastic wave signals obtained by the vibration sensor 125 to determine the position, size and shape of the voids.

[0058] Exemplarily, the exciter 124 knocks on the pipeline to generate impact elastic wave signals (there are differences in the propagation laws of impact elastic waves in the pipeline base cushion and different types of voids). The vibration sensor 125 receives the impact elastic wave signals. The high-resolution spectrum analysis method (MEM analysis) is used to process the impact elastic wave signals received by the vibration sensor 125, and information such as frequency, amplitude and time delay reflecting the characteristics of the voids in the pipeline base cushion is extracted. Three-dimensional profile slices are generated through the spectrum data, and then the contour cloud map of the delamination index is generated, which can visually display the void distribution in the pipeline base cushion and determine the position, size and shape of the voids.

[0059] It should be noted that the order of the above step S200 and step S300 can be reversed, or step S200 and step S300 can be performed simultaneously, and no specific limitation is made here.
