Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of municipal construction technology, and in particular to a CCTV robot rescue method in old pipelines based on a rescue vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Today, trenchless repair technology for drainage pipes is widely used, and CCTV robot inspection is also widely used. During the inspection of pipelines, CCTV robots often encounter complex environments such as falling into dark wells, pits formed by broken pipelines, and losing power or being unable to escape. In similar situations, in order to rescue CCTV robots, digging to the top of the dark well or opening a hole on the top of the pipe to take out the CCTV robot, or using frogmen to enter the pipeline to manually retrieve the CCTV robot.
[0003] There are many disadvantages and shortcomings in rescuing CCTV robots through excavation: 1. Excavation rescue is time-consuming, resource-intensive, and requires a large amount of work; 2. Excavation rescue may affect surrounding buildings (structures), transportation, social operations (such as commercial areas), etc.; 3. Excavation rescue is difficult to support the excavation pit, and it is difficult to restore the dark wells and pipelines opened after excavation; 4. It is difficult to confirm the excavation location; 5. It does not conform to the concept of trenchless repair, etc.
[0004] Entering the pipeline through frogmen has obvious disadvantages and shortcomings: 1. Frogmen working in a small space may get stuck, be unable to retreat, and have uncertain safety risks in the unexplored area ahead; 2. Pipes with a diameter of 600mm are already difficult for frogmen to enter and operate inside. Existing drainage pipes with diameters less than 500mm, 400mm, and 300mm cannot be entered by frogmen at all, which has great limitations; 3. Temporary arrangements for frogmen to enter to recover CCTV robots require a long preparation time and high costs.
[0005] In complex environments, a rescue vehicle is used to rescue CCTV robots that have lost power or are unable to escape from a trap in complex environments such as dark wells or holes formed by broken pipes. During the rescue process, there is no need for large excavations or for frogmen to enter the trapped area to retrieve the CCTV robots. The rescue process is simple, convenient, fast, low-cost, and does not endanger the safety of operators. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of this application is to overcome the problems of the prior art and disclose a method for rescuing a CCTV robot in an old pipeline based on a rescue vehicle. The method of the present invention adopts a rescue vehicle to rescue a CCTV robot that has lost power or cannot escape from a complex environment such as a dark well or a pit formed by a broken pipeline. During the rescue process, there is no need to use large excavation or frogmen to enter the trapped area to take out the CCTV robot.
