Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of detection technology, and in particular to an underwater structure defect detection device and a detection method based on image recognition. Background Art
[0002] Traditional underwater inspection of hydraulic structures mainly involves pumping water out of cofferdams to form dry land or emptying reservoirs, combined with manual inspections to identify underwater structural defects. This method is common in early underwater structure inspections. The main disadvantage is that the emptying of the reservoir takes a long inspection cycle and is prone to waste water resources.
[0003] A marine engineering underwater structure defect detection device disclosed in a patent application with reference publication number CN118169040A controls a camera to reciprocate along a slide groove, and multi-directionally arranged sliding components and cameras surround the circumference of the marine engineering underwater pile foundation structure and cooperate with each other, thereby achieving all-round detection of the defects of the marine engineering underwater pile foundation structure and effectively shortening the inspection time.
[0004] The above-mentioned detection device adopts a sliding component to quickly complete the defect detection of the underwater structure. However, the above-mentioned detection device cannot actively clean the underwater structure detection area during the detection process. Therefore, in the actual detection process, the detection area is easily blocked and covered by various debris. The detection device cannot obtain the overall picture of the underwater structure and cannot complete the detailed detection of the underwater structure, which makes it impossible to carry out the detection work in an orderly manner, easily causes detection and recognition errors, and there is a problem of reduced imaging quality, which reduces the overall detection accuracy.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0058] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0060] Embodiment 1: The present invention provides a technical solution: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an underwater structural defect detection device based on image recognition includes an underwater robot 1, which can complete free movement underwater, and a pull ring is installed on one side of the top of the underwater robot 1, and the underwater robot 1 is controlled by connecting the pull ring with a pull rope.

The underwater robot 1 controls the detection unit 2 to move to complete mobile detection at different positions. The detection unit 2 is specifically one or more acoustic and optical detectors such as underwater cameras and sonars. , which can complete accurate defect detection of underwater structures. A protective cover is arranged at the front end of the detection unit 2. The protective cover is made of transparent material. The protective cover is connected to the underwater robot 1.

At the same time, the filling light unit 3 can be replaced by other filling light structures;
[0061] The processing mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the underwater robot 1 to realize active cleaning of the underwater structure. The processing mechanism completes the cleaning of the underwater structure to compensate the detection unit 2 and improve the detection accuracy. The processing mechanism is divided into a control end and a cleaning end. The control end is used to complete the adaptation and adjustment of the shape of the cleaning end. The cleaning end contacts the underwater structure to complete the active cleaning. At the same time, the control end can control the cleaning end to complete its own cleaning action;
[0062] The adjusting mechanism is arranged between the underwater robot 1 and the processing mechanism. The position of the processing mechanism is adjusted by the adjusting mechanism. Meanwhile, the adjusting mechanism can control the processing mechanism to fold under the underwater robot 1 to avoid the underwater robot 1.
[0063] Among them, the electric cylinder 8, the detection unit 2, the No. 1 micro electric push rod 17, the No. 2 micro electric push rod 19, the adjusting motor, the switching motor and other electrical components are all connected to the switch through wires, and the switch is electrically connected to the controller. The specific structure of the controller is not limited. At the same time, the electrical components of the detection device are all waterproof and can adapt to underwater operations. Absolute encoders are installed on the switching motor and the adjusting motor for accurate positioning.
[0064] Embodiment 2: Based on the processing mechanism provided in Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a further technical solution of the processing mechanism.
[0065] like Fig.11 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the control terminal includes:
[0066] A fixed seat 4 is arranged on the adjustment mechanism, a control chamber 5 is arranged on one side of the fixed seat 4, an oil storage chamber 6 is arranged in the control chamber 5, an oil filling port is arranged on one side of the top of the oil storage chamber 6, the oil filling port is kept closed under normal conditions, a certain amount of oil is injected into the oil storage chamber 6, and a push piece 7 is slidably installed on one side of the oil storage chamber 6, the push piece 7 is in sliding and sealing contact with the oil storage chamber 6, an electric cylinder 8 connected to the push piece 7 is installed on one side of the fixed seat 4, the position of the push piece 7 in the oil storage chamber 6 is adjusted by the electric cylinder 8, and a guide port 9 is opened at the front end of the control chamber 5;
[0067] The switch chamber 10 is sealed and arranged at the front end of the control chamber 5 and communicated with the guide port 9. The No. 1 pipe 11 and the No. 2 pipe 12 are respectively connected and installed at the bottom of the switch chamber 10, and manual valves for controlling the on-off of the No. 1 pipe 11 and the No. 2 pipe 12 are installed at the ends. Slideways are symmetrically provided on both sides of the bottom of the switch chamber 10. The No. 1 switch plate 13 and the No. 2 switch plate 14 are slidably arranged at the bottom of the switch chamber 10. The No. 1 block and the No. 2 block are respectively integrally installed on one side of the upper surface of the No. 1 switch plate 13 and the No. 2 switch plate 14. The No. 1 switch plate 13 and the No. 2 switch plate 14 are both slidably engaged with the slideways. The No. 1 switch plate 13 and the No. 2 switch plate 14 respectively complete the blocking of the No. 1 pipe 11 and the No. 2 pipe 12. Under normal conditions, the No. 1 switch plate 13 is separated from the No. 1 pipe 11 and is in an open state, and the No. 2 switch plate 14 blocks the No. 2 pipe 12 and is in a closed state;
[0068] It is worth noting that when cleaning the underwater structure: a processing mechanism is provided to control the movement of the underwater robot 1 so that the cleaning belt 27 is close to the cleaning area of the underwater structure. Since the cleaning belt 27 is of flexible design, under the propulsion of the underwater robot 1, the cleaning belt 27 between the two limiting pulleys 222 will actively deform and adaptively fit with the underwater structure, and can quickly adapt to the curved and flat underwater structures to complete the cleaning. During the deformation of the cleaning belt 27, the position of the guide wheel 26 can be automatically adapted and adjusted by the tension spring 25 and the moving platform 24, so that the cleaning belt 27 maintains a predetermined tension and can be freely adjusted within a predetermined range. Then, the driving motor is controlled to drive the limiting pulley 222 to rotate, so that the cleaning belt 27 completes the follow-up rotation, and the cleaning work is completed by the reciprocating friction between the cleaning belt 27 and the underwater structure.
[0069] In order to ensure the stable fit between the cleaning belt 27 and the underwater structure, a No. 1 sensing area is provided, and the limiting pulley 222 contacts the No. 1 pressure sensor 223 in the No. 1 sensing area, so that the pressure between the limiting pulley 222 and the underwater structure can be detected, and the contact pressure provided by the cleaning belt 27 to the underwater structure can be accurately known, so that the operator can control the cleaning force.
[0070] like Fig.14 As shown, the control terminal also includes:
[0071] A switching seat 15 is arranged at one side of the switching chamber 10, and a No. 1 zone is provided on the switching seat 15, a sliding seat 16 is slidably installed in the No. 1 zone, a No. 1 micro electric push rod 17 connected to the sliding seat 16 is installed on one side of the No. 1 zone, a No. 2 zone is provided on the sliding seat 16, a sliding block 18 is slidably installed in the No. 2 zone, and a No. 2 micro electric push rod 19 connected to the sliding block 18 is installed on one side of the No. 2 zone;
[0072] It should be noted that when controlling the opening and closing states of the No. 1 pipe 11 and the No. 2 pipe 12: in normal state, the No. 1 pipe 11 is open and the No. 2 pipe 12 is closed, and the priority of the No. 1 extrusion chamber 28 is maintained. There are two modes for opening the No. 2 pipe 12:
[0073] In the first mode, the No. 1 micro electric push rod 17 is controlled to push the slide 16 and the sensing shaft 20 to move, so that the No. 1 switching plate 13 and the No. 2 switching plate 14 move simultaneously. In this state, the No. 1 tube 11 is closed and the No. 2 tube 12 is opened, so that the No. 2 extrusion chamber 38 can be controlled under the interference of the No. 1 extrusion chamber 28. After the No. 1 tube 11 is closed, the extrusion wheel 30 maintains the working position, which improves the stability and prevents the subsequent oil flow from interfering with the position of the extrusion wheel 30.
[0074] In the second mode, in the initial state, the second micro electric push rod 19 is controlled to push the slider 18 to slide in the second zone, and the central shaft 202 is controlled to move. Since the central shaft 202 slides in the hollow shaft 201, the position of the hollow shaft 201 is not affected. The movement of the central shaft 202 pushes the second block and the second switching plate 14 to move, and the second tube 12 is opened. In the initial state, the first tube 11 and the second tube 12 can be opened, which is convenient for the operator to control according to the needs;
[0075] like Fig.15 As shown, the sensing shaft 20 is arranged on the switching seat 15, and the No. 1 switching plate 13 and the No. 2 switching plate 14 are actively controlled by the sensing shaft 20; the sensing shaft 20 is divided into a hollow shaft 201 and a central shaft 202, one end of the hollow shaft 201 is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding seat 16, and the other end of the hollow shaft 201 is fixedly passed through the No. 1 block of the No. 1 switching plate 13 and contacts the side wall of the No. 2 block on the No. 2 switching plate 14, a through hole matching with the hollow shaft 201 is opened through the front end of the switching seat 15, the central shaft 202 is slidably penetrated in the hollow shaft 201, one end of the central shaft 202 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 18, and the other end of the central shaft 202 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the No. 2 block on the No. 2 switching plate 14, and a through hole matching with the central shaft 202 is opened through the front end of the sliding seat 16;
[0076] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning end includes:
[0077] The fixing frame 21 is arranged at the front end of the control room 5. Specifically, the fixing frame 21 is detachably fixed to the control room 5 through a connecting piece. The fixing frame 21 is in a concave shape as a whole. The size of the fixing frame 21 can be replaced according to the detection environment. Limiting wheel members 22 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the front end of the fixing frame 21. A sliding frame 23 is installed in the middle position of the lower surface of the fixing frame 21. A moving platform 24 is slidably engaged in the sliding frame 23. A tension spring 25 is installed between the moving platform 24 and the sliding frame 23. A guide wheel 26 is rotatably installed on one side of the upper surface of the moving platform 24.
[0078] The cleaning belt 27 is made of a friction material or a flexible metal material, which can be freely replaced according to actual cleaning needs. The cleaning belt 27 is arranged between the guide wheel 26 and the two limiting wheel members 22. The guide wheel 26 and the two limiting wheel members 22 are used to open and limit the cleaning belt 27, and the cleaning belt 27 is used to contact the underwater structure to complete the scraping cleaning.
[0079] like Figure 7 As shown, each limiting wheel member 22 includes a concave seat 221 fixed to the front end of the fixing frame 21, and a No. 1 sensing area is provided at the top and bottom of the front end of the concave seat 221. A limiting pulley 222 is installed in the two No. 1 sensing areas through a bracket for common rotation. The limiting pulley 222 contacts and drives the cleaning belt 27, and a driving motor connected to the limiting pulley 222 is installed on one of the concave seats 221 through a bracket, which can control the cleaning belt 27 to rotate to complete the cleaning action. The limiting pulley 222 can rotate in one The first sensing area moves in the first sensing area. Specifically, the first sensing block is slidably installed in the two first sensing areas. The first sensing block is rotatably connected with the limiting pulley 222, and the first sensing block is in contact with the first pressure sensor 223. A first pressure sensor 223 for detecting the limiting pulley 222 is installed in one of the sensing areas, and a limiting wheel 224 is installed in the concave seat 221 at one side of the limiting pulley 222 for rotation at intervals. Specifically, the cleaning belt 27 correspondingly bypasses the two limiting pulleys 222 and the guide wheel 26 to complete the restriction;
[0080] like Fig. 9 As shown, the cleaning end includes:
[0081] A first extrusion chamber 28 is provided on the lower surface of the slide frame 23. A first piston member 29 is installed in the first extrusion chamber 28 in a sliding and sealing manner. A limit block is installed on one side of the lower surface of the slide frame 23. The front end of the first piston member 29 slides through the limit block to complete the limit.
[0082] The extrusion wheel 30 is arranged on the No. 1 piston member 29. Specifically, the extrusion wheel 30 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the No. 1 piston member 29 through a bracket. The extrusion wheel 30 provides pressure by contacting the inner side of the cleaning belt 27. A No. 1 spring 31 is installed between the No. 1 piston member 29 and the No. 1 extrusion chamber 28. The No. 1 spring 31 is used to pull the No. 1 piston member 29 to return to the No. 1 extrusion chamber 28. The No. 1 extrusion chamber 28 is connected with the No. 1 pipe 11 through a pipe. Specifically, the connecting pipe between the No. 1 extrusion chamber 28 and the No. 1 pipe 11 can be one of a metal pipe, a flexible pipe and a spring pipe.
[0083] It is worth noting that when the cleaning belt 27 is assisted in supporting: under normal conditions, the No. 1 pipe 11 is in an open state and communicates with the oil storage chamber 6, and then the electric cylinder 8 is controlled to extend and retract, so that the push piece 7 moves in the oil storage chamber 6, and the oil therein is pushed into the No. 1 pipe 11 through the guide port 9, and then sent into the No. 1 extrusion chamber 28 through the pipeline, pushing the No. 1 piston piece 29 to overcome the No. 2 spring 40 to extend, so that the extrusion wheel 30 moves forward and contacts the inner side of the cleaning belt 27, which can stably support and limit the cleaning belt 27, so that the weak area in the middle area of the cleaning belt 27 can still fit the underwater structure, further improving the cleaning effect, and at the same time, the position of the extrusion wheel 30 can be adaptively adjusted according to the shape of the cleaning belt 27.
