Because of oil, a motor can run, and because of oil, sea, land and air can freely shuttle. From the spaceship soaring in space to the submarine diving into the sea, all of them cannot be separated from important oil resources. In the process of oil exploitation, oil often needs to be transported to a designated location. Since oil is in liquid form, there is a very high requirement for the sealing of the conveying pipeline. With the passage of time, the pipeline is inevitably damaged after long-term exposure to the outside, and the oil pipeline needs to be cracked.

[0003] Publication No. CN110514356A discloses an oil pipeline crack detection device, which comprises a body, a sliding cavity is arranged in the body, left and right arc-shaped holes are arranged in the body and communicate with the sliding cavity, an upper hole is arranged above the sliding cavity, a sliding body is slidably connected in the sliding cavity, an upper sliding rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding body and slidably connected with the upper hole, an output cavity is arranged in the sliding body. This prior art can be automatically fixedly connected to the pipeline and can move freely. In the moving process, the pipeline is detected by a probe that can move around the pipeline in a circumferential direction. Through the all-around probe detection, the damaged part can be well found, so that the cracks can be repaired, thereby preventing the loss caused by oil leakage. The present application also sets different pipe diameters that can be freely changed, so that pipelines with different diameters can be detected.

[0004] This prior art can detect oil pipelines with different diameters, but cannot cross the elbow connection of the oil pipeline. When the oil pipeline is pre-buried, the direction will change and the elbow will be set.

[0005] The oil and gas leakage point rapid detection equipment disclosed by Publication No. CN217519683U relates to the field of oil and gas detection and comprises a connecting unit located on the outer side of an oil and gas pipeline and a gas-liquid detection device movably mounted on the surface of the connecting unit. The left and right ends of the connecting unit are connected with limiting units for fixing the oil and gas pipeline. The limiting unit comprises an inclined extension piece abutting against the outer wall of the oil pipeline. The end of the inclined extension piece is fixedly connected with a rubber pad layer, and the end of the inclined extension piece is fixedly connected with a clamping arm. The prior art has the functions of abutting installation and improved anti-skid performance, can reduce the time for installing and dismounting the oil and gas leakage point rapid detection equipment with the pipeline, improve the portability during installation and dismounting, facilitate replacement, and adjust the length of the oil and gas leakage point rapid detection equipment to be suitable for pipeline interfaces of different lengths.

[0006] The prior art can detect oil pipelines of different diameters, but cannot cross the elbow connection of the oil pipeline. When the oil pipeline is pre-buried, the direction may change, and an elbow is arranged.

[0007] Publication No. CN114228853A discloses a crawler for oil pipeline detection, which comprises a rack, a front crawling foot movably connected to one side of the rack, a rear crawling foot movably connected to the other side of the rack, a clamping telescopic device fixedly arranged in the middle of the rack, and a detection device fixedly arranged on the clamping telescopic device.

The detection device can detect the oil pipeline. The prior art uses a mechanical arm to crawl and uses a wheel mechanism to fix, and a driving cylinder is used to drive the crawling. The detection device is placed on the rack, and the movement process is completed by the mechanical arm and the driving cylinder. The mechanical arm can actively overcome obstacles during crawling, and the reliability is high.

[0008] The prior art can detect oil pipelines of different diameters and can cross the elbow connection of the oil pipeline, but the crawling arm has too low advancing efficiency and low practical application value.
