However, as a key channel connecting subsea oil and gas fields with land processing facilities, subsea oil and gas pipelines face various challenges brought by the complex marine environment during long-term operation, such as corrosion, leakage, and damage. These risks may not only lead to energy waste and environmental pollution, but also pose a serious threat to personnel safety.

The crawling frame 306 is composed of a plurality of connecting rods. The crawling frame 306 is driven by a steering gear 305 to provide power and drive the entire crawling mechanism through the crank connecting rod principle. Two symmetrically arranged self-controlled adsorbers 3070 are respectively provided at the bottom of the crawling front cabin 301 and the crawling rear cabin 303. The crawling mechanism 300 crawls forward on the inner wall of the pipeline by controlling the adsorption function of the self-controlled adsorbers 3070 and cooperating with the crawling frame 306. The crawling mechanism 300 or other mechanisms are also connected through a universal coupling 1 and a connecting pipe 2. The rear end of the crawling rear cabin 303 is connected to the connecting disc 401 of the repair structure 400 through a connecting pipe 2 and a universal coupling 1.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, the self-controlled adsorber 3070 is a cylindrical structure as a whole, including a suction cup 3071, a chamber 3072, a support frame 3073, a magnetic piston 3074, an electromagnet 3075, and a controllable power supply 3076. ; The suction cup 3071 is loaded under the chamber 3072 to form a closed whole. There is a support frame 3073 in the chamber 3072. The support frame 3073 is located above the suction cup 3071 and supports the magnetic piston 3074. The magnetic piston 3074 can move up and down. An electromagnet 3075 is designed above the magnetic piston 3074. The electromagnet 3075 is fixed in the groove of the chamber 3072 and is connected to a controllable power supply 3076 to provide power.

[0041] like Figure 7 As shown, the repair mechanism 400 is a spindle cone shape as a whole, including a connecting disk 401, a breakable cable box 402, a front bonding block 403, a controllable battery 404, an electromagnet 405, a telescopic cable box 406, a rear bonding block 407, an umbrella stand rod 408, a push ring 409, a self-control guide rail slider 410, a guide rail 411, and a monitoring ring 4120. The connecting disk 401 is connected to the rear end of the breakable cable box 402. The breakable cable box 402 can extend the cable and can also disconnect the cable at one time. The end of the cable is connected to the front end of the front bonding block 403. The front bonding block 403 is a cone shape with a small front end and a large rear end. The rear end of the front bonding block 403 is designed with an electromagnet. The controllable battery 404 controls it to be energized and bonded to the inner wall of the pipeline. The rear end of the front bonding block 403 is connected to the telescopic cable box 406, and the telescopic cable box 406 can be extended. The cable can also be retracted. The end of the cable is connected to the front end of the rear bonding block 407. The rear bonding block 407 is a truncated cone with a large front end and a small rear end. The front end of the rear bonding block 407 is designed with an electromagnet 405. The controllable battery 404 controls the power to bond to the outer wall of the pipeline. There is an umbrella frame structure inside the rear bonding block 407. The self-control guide rail slider 410 can slide on the guide rail 411 by itself. The self-control guide rail slider 410 is connected to the pushing ring 409, and the pushing ring 409 is connected to the umbrella frame rod. The sliding of the pushing ring 409 drives the umbrella frame rod 408 to move outward. The outward movement of the umbrella frame rod 408 can expand and change the front end area of ​​the rear bonding block 407, which can be opened and bonded to repair the outer wall of the pipeline after the rear bonding block 407 extends out of the damaged part of the pipeline. The rear end of the rear bonding block 407 is connected to the monitoring ring 4120, and the monitoring ring 4120 can be detached.

[0042] like Figure 8 As shown, the cable is wound around the breakable cable box 402, the cable can be released and contracted, the cable can also be disconnected, and the cable end can be fixed to the front bonding block 403. Similarly, the telescopic cable box 406 can extend the cable, and the cable can also be retracted, and the cable end is connected to the front end of the rear bonding block 407.

[0043] like Fig. 9 As shown, the monitoring ring 4120 is a hollow ring as a whole, including a ring cabin 4121, a sensor 4122, an inflatable component 4123 and an airbag 4124. The ring cabin 4121 is designed with a sensor 4122 and an inflatable component 4123. The air pipe of the inflatable component 4123 is connected to the airbag 4124. The inflatable component 4123 can inflate the airbag 4124. After the monitoring ring 4120 is detached from the fitting block 407, it can float to the water surface.

[0044] Working principle: When the present invention is in a pipeline, the head mechanism 100 is used to detect the pipeline, the propulsion mechanism 200 is used to swim in the pipeline, the crawling mechanism 300 is used to creep when approaching the pipeline, and the repair mechanism 400 is used to repair the damaged part of the pipeline and upload data, so that the pipeline can be detected and repaired autonomously, efficiently and automatically.

[0045] The device is placed in a pipeline along the flow direction of the fluid medium, various sensors of the head mechanism 100 are started, the fan plate 103 is opened, the propeller 104 is started, and the screw propeller 202 of the propulsion mechanism 200 is started. The two mechanisms work together to realize the linear movement and steering of the device in the pipeline, and various sensors are used to detect the situation in the pipeline.

[0046] When the crawling mechanism 300 detects a large deformation or a sudden change in flow rate in the pipeline, the device turns on the crawling mode, and its shape is similar to that of a caterpillar. The crawling mechanism 300 uses the flexible connecting hose 302 to transform itself into an inverted U-shaped structure. The creeping process is achieved through the cooperation between the self-controlled adsorber 3070 and the crawling frame 306. First, one end is fixed by the self-controlled adsorber 3070, and the other end is moved forward by the crawling frame 306. The repeated process enables the device to move forward stably. The creeping crawling process of this device can also be understood as being achieved by the alternating operation of the self-controlled adsorber 3070 of the crawling front cabin 301 and the crawling rear cabin 303.

[0047] The telescopic cable box 406 behind the front bonding block 403 of the repair mechanism 400 extends the cable to release the rear bonding block 407 in a traction manner. After the rear bonding block 407 extends out from the damaged part, the telescopic cable box 406 retracts the cable. When the rear bonding block 407 is about to reach the outer wall of the pipe, the self-control guide rail slider 410 in the rear bonding block 407 is started, driving the umbrella-like structure to open and expand the bonding area, and starting the electromagnet 405 of the rear bonding block 407 to firmly adsorb the rear bonding block 407 of the repair mechanism 400 on the outer wall of the pipe. Then the breakable cable box 402 in front of the front bonding block 403 extends the cable, and at the same time, the telescopic cable box 406 retracts the cable, and starts the electromagnet 405 of the front bonding block 403, so that the front bonding block 403 is bonded to the inner wall of the pipe and fits the damaged part together with the rear bonding block 407.

[0048] The monitoring ring 4120 detects that there is no abnormal fluid flow at the damaged part, which means that the repair is in good condition. Then the cable box 402 can be used to disconnect the cable, leaving the front bonding block 403 and the rear bonding block 407 at the damaged part, and the air bag 4124 of the monitoring ring 4120 is inflated. After the inflation is completed, the monitoring ring 4120 is disconnected to make it float to the water surface to upload data, the self-control adsorber 3070 of the crawling mechanism 300 is closed, the various sensors of the head mechanism 100 are started, the fan plate 103 is opened, the propeller 104 is started, and the screw propeller 202 of the propulsion mechanism 200 is started. The two mechanisms work together to realize the swimming and turning movement of the device in the pipeline, and various sensors are used to continue to detect the situation in the pipeline.
