[0022] Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The unmanned laying detection device for optical cable installation shown in the figure comprises a main body 1, on both side walls of the main body 1 are movably mounted electrically-controlled flip support arms 2, at the ends of the electrically-controlled flip support arms 2 are movably mounted lateral support drive wheels 3, at the bottom of the main body 1 is mounted a bottom assembly frame 4 with an inverted T-shaped structure, on the inner bottom surface of the bottom assembly frame 4 are movably mounted a central bottom support wheel 5 and a lateral elastic support wheel 6, on the side walls of the bottom assembly frame 4 are fixedly mounted two symmetrically arranged arc guide rails 7, inside of the arc guide rails 7 are slidably mounted an electrically-controlled rotating frame 8, on the inner side surface of the electrically-controlled rotating frame 8 is fixedly mounted an electrically-controlled detection module 9.
[0023] Working principle: The main body 1 is flipped downward by the electrically controlled flip support arms 2 on both sides and supported inside the cable duct to support the inner walls on both sides of the cable duct. The optical cable is then lifted and placed on the bottom assembly frame 4, supported and placed by the central bottom support wheel 5 and the side elastic support wheel 6, and then supported and driven by the lateral support drive wheel 3, and then the main body 1 is driven to perform translation adjustment inside the cable duct. During the translation, the electrically controlled rotating frame 8 is rotated and adjusted along the periphery of the optical cable, and then the electrically controlled detection module 9 synchronously detects the optical cable, and then detects the damage on the surface of the optical cable, the surface temperature and the internal humidity in real time.
[0024] In order to cooperate with the bottom lifting adjustment, an internal lifting groove 10 for installing and adjusting the bottom assembly frame 4 is opened inside the main body 1.
[0025] In order to cooperate with height adjustment, a built-in electric control screw rod 11 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the main body 1, and the bottom assembly frame 4 is movably assembled with the main body 1 by being sleeved on the built-in electric control screw rod 11 through an internal internal thread lifting cylinder 12.
[0026] The built-in electric control screw rod 11 is electrically controlled to rotate, and then controls the bottom assembly frame 4 to be raised and lowered in the internal lifting groove 10. At this time, the height of the optical cable can be adjusted. When the bottom assembly frame 4 descends, the bottom of the optical cable is supported by the central bottom support wheel 5 and the side elastic support wheel 6; and when the bottom assembly frame 4 rises, the ground of the main body 1 is squeezed and fixed with the upper surface of the optical cable, and the equipment can pull the optical cable to translate inside the cable laying duct.
[0027] In order to cooperate with lateral extrusion and limiting, the bottom assembly frame 4 has lateral extrusion frames 13 on both sides for installing the side elastic support wheels 6.
[0028] The optical cables are placed on both sides of the bottom assembly frame 4, and then supported and guided by the central bottom support wheel 5 and the side elastic support wheels 6 at an angle below. The elastically arranged side elastic support wheels 6 can adapt to optical cables of different diameters and specifications.
[0029] In order to cooperate with the angle adjustment, the electrically controlled rotating frame 8 includes a rotating adjusting frame 81 slidably inserted in the arc guide rail 7 , a first adjusting motor 82 and a second adjusting motor 83 fixed on the side wall of the arc guide rail 7 , and an adjusting gear 84 .
[0030] The outer arc surface of the rotating adjustment frame 81 is provided with an arc-shaped tooth groove meshing with the adjustment gear 84. At this time, the first adjustment motor 82 and the second adjustment motor 83 synchronously adjust the rotating adjustment frame 81, thereby controlling the rotating adjustment frame 81 to rotate along the arc guide rail 7, so that the entire electrically-controlled rotating frame 8 can drive the electrically-controlled detection module 9 to rotate around the optical cable for detection.
[0031] In order to facilitate installation and adjustment, a loading and unloading notch is provided on the rotating and adjusting frame 81 , and a circular installation and fixing groove for fixing the electric control detection module 9 is provided inside the rotating and adjusting frame 81 .

The infrared detection module is used to detect the temperature of the optical cable, while the ultraviolet detection module is used to detect the degree of damage on the surface of the optical cable. The humidity monitoring module is used to detect the internal humidity.
[0033] In order to cooperate with the lateral movable assembly, lateral assembly grooves for movable assembly of the electrically controlled flip-type support arm 2 are provided on the two side walls of the main body 1 .
[0034] In order to coordinate and control the lateral adjustment arm 21 for angle adjustment, the electrically controlled flip support arm 2 includes a lateral adjustment arm 21 movably assembled in a lateral assembly groove via a connecting shaft and an upper control support rod 22 for controlling the lateral adjustment arm 21 .
[0035] The lateral adjustment arm 21 is a telescopic structure, including a flip arm with a rotating shaft inside the lateral assembly groove and an embedded telescopic rod fixed inside the flip arm. The extended end of the embedded telescopic rod is installed with a lateral transmission frame for assembling the lateral support drive wheel 3.
[0036] The upper control strut 22 changes the flip angle of the lateral adjustment arm 21 by telescopic adjustment, thereby adjusting the flip angle of the lateral adjustment arms 21 on both sides, thereby changing the height and position of the main body 1 inside the cabling duct.
[0037] In order to facilitate the end assembly, the main body 1 is provided with end slots at the front and rear ends, and an electrically controlled adjustment cover 15 for installing an electronic camera 14 is movably installed inside the end slot.
[0038] The electrically controlled adjustment cover 15 comprises a flip cover shell arranged in the end slot and an angle adjustment motor fixed inside the flip cover shell. The angle adjustment of the flip cover shell is controlled by the rotation of the angle adjustment motor, so as to adjust the shooting angle of the electronic camera 14.
[0039] In order to improve the detection accuracy and facilitate the observation of the internal state, LED lamp bodies 16 for lighting are fixedly mounted on the upper and lower ends of the electric control adjustment cover 15 and both sides of the main body 1.
[0040] The interior of the cabling duct is illuminated by LED lamps 16 in four directions, so that the detection accuracy of the electronic camera 14 and the electronic control detection module 9 can be coordinated.
