[0029] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 3 , the present invention is further explained by describing a preferred specific embodiment in detail.
[0030] It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions. They are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the embodiments of the present invention, and are not used to limit the conditions for the implementation of the present invention. Therefore, they have no substantive technical significance. Any structural modification, change in proportional relationship or adjustment of size, without affecting the effects and purposes that can be achieved by the present invention, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed by the present invention.
[0031] It should be noted that, in the present invention, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only the elements explicitly listed, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
[0032] like Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a visual underground pipeline detection device, including: a vehicle body 1; a moving component, arranged below the vehicle body 1, for moving the vehicle body 1; a laser radar 7, located above the vehicle body 1, emitting a laser beam to detect ground terrain information; a detection system 6, arranged on the vehicle body 1 and below the plane where the laser radar 7 is located, for marking the absolute spatial position of the underground pipeline and detecting relevant data information of the underground pipeline; a telescopic device 8, one end of which is fixed above the vehicle body 1, and the other end is connected to the laser radar 7, and the height of the laser radar 7 is adjusted by telescopic control.
[0033] Furthermore, the mobile assembly includes: a plurality of wheel brackets 2, which are arranged below the vehicle body 1 and connected to the vehicle body 1 at one end; a plurality of wheel hub frames 3, one end of which is connected to the other end of each wheel bracket 2 in a one-to-one correspondence; and a plurality of wheels 4, which are connected to the other end of each wheel hub frame 3 in a one-to-one correspondence. It can be understood that the mobile assembly cooperates to control the movement of the vehicle body 1, thereby controlling the movement of the overall underground pipeline detection device, and then obtaining specific data information of the underground pipeline while obtaining the terrain data information on the ground.
[0034] Furthermore, the laser radar 7 is a flat cylindrical structure, on which a plurality of laser cameras 71 and a signal receiver 72 are provided.
[0035] The laser cameras 71 are evenly distributed and arranged around the horizontal side of the cylinder to enable the laser beam to scan a 360° range, and the laser radar 7 emits laser beams to the surroundings through each laser camera 71, and receives the reflected beams of each laser beam irradiated to each target point in the ground terrain and then reflected back through the signal receiver 72, so as to obtain the time required for the laser beam to irradiate each target point in the ground terrain and then reflect back, so as to calculate the distance from the laser radar 7 to each target point in the ground terrain. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the number of the laser cameras 71 is 4, which are evenly distributed and arranged around the horizontal side of the cylinder of the laser radar 7 at 90° intervals.
[0036] It is understandable that, as the car is constantly moving, each laser camera 71 will acquire millions of ground terrain data information during the rapid and repeated detection process. Based on the cloud collection of the ground terrain data information, a complex "map" of the ground terrain space surface being measured, i.e., a point cloud map, can be constructed. After joint solution, deviation correction, clustering, extraction and other processing, a digital three-dimensional space model that is easy for human vision to distinguish can be constructed, and 3D graphics rendering can be performed at the same time to further improve the aesthetics of the graphics.

The RTK system 61 is used to mark the absolute spatial position of the underground pipeline, and the pipeline detection system 62 is used to measure the buried depth, size, direction and other data information of the underground pipeline.
[0038] Furthermore, the telescopic device 8 has a telescopic function, and can control the height of the laser radar 7 by telescoping to achieve operation in different spaces.
[0039] Furthermore, the visual underground pipeline detection device also includes a power system 5, which is fixed above the vehicle body 1; wherein a power storage device is provided in the power system 5, and the power system 5 is respectively connected to the mobile component, the detection system 6 and the laser radar 7 circuit to provide operating power for the entire detection device.
[0040] Furthermore, the visual underground pipeline detection device also includes an external controller (not shown in the figure), which is communicatively connected to the signal receiver 72 in the laser radar 7 to receive ground terrain data information scanned by the laser radar 7; and the external controller is communicatively connected to the detection system 6 to receive underground pipeline-related data information detected by the pipeline detection system 62 and absolute spatial position information of the underground pipeline recorded by the RTK system 61.

[0049] S12, performing calculation, deviation correction, clustering and extraction processing on the ground terrain data information;
