Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of visual inspection robots, and particularly to a sensor-based visual inspection robot for mechanical equipment and its system. Background Art

[0002] Pipelines are widely used in daily life and industrial scenarios. In some special application scenarios, such as long-distance oil and gas pipelines, petrochemical pipelines, and nuclear industry pipelines, etc., due to the complexity and particularity of the pipeline interior, regular inspections and maintenance are required to ensure their safety and reliability.

[0003] Currently, the main methods for detecting pipeline inner wall damage include ultrasonic method, X-ray method, and camera method, etc. The ultrasonic method requires the use of a coupling agent and scans the entire pipe circumference, with low measurement efficiency. The X-ray method uses a high-energy radiation source and has a radiation risk. The camera method detects the inner wall by placing a camera device inside the pipeline and is difficult to apply to slender pipelines, which brings certain adverse effects to the usage process.

[0028] When the unfolding motor 39 controls the rotation of the rotating shaft 310 to make the rotating blade 311 rotate, at this time, the push rod 312 will push the fixing block 313 to move outward along the first cross track 37 and the second cross track 319, so that the cleaning brush 315 moves out of the inside of the side shell 31, and the cleaning brush 315 fits onto the inner wall surface of the pipeline. Then, the rotating motor 316 is used to control the rotation of the driving gear 317, and through the transmission of the rotating gear 318, the rotating disk 35 and the fixing plate 38 rotate, and the cleaning brush 315 on the outer surfaces of the second cross track 319 and the first cross track 37 rotates, and the inner wall of the pipeline is cleaned by the cleaning brush 315.

The remote control module is used to execute the instructions of the control algorithm to realize the movement of the inspection robot in the pipeline, and through the warning and alarm module, the position of the inspection robot inside the pipeline is prompted; The communication module includes a wireless communication module and a Bluetooth module. Through the communication module, the inspection robot can communicate with the operator in real time and receive control instructions; The data processing module processes the image data obtained by the visual inspection module inside the inspection robot. Using image stitching technology, multiple images are synthesized into a complete image of the inner wall of the pipeline; The human-computer interaction module includes a monitoring platform and a handheld remote control. Control instructions are sent to the inspection robot through the handheld remote control, and the situation of the inner wall of the pipeline is observed through the monitoring platform. Among them, the visual inspection module includes a high-definition camera, an infrared thermal imaging camera, and a low-light camera. The high-definition camera is used to obtain high-resolution images of the target object and can clearly capture the surface details of the object. The infrared thermal imaging camera is used to detect the temperature distribution of the target object and discover potential faults or anomalies by analyzing the temperature differences. The low-light camera plays a role in an environment with extremely weak light to ensure that the robot can also perform effective detection work in a dark environment.

[0031] Among them, the visual inspection module also includes image acquisition: the camera collects images inside the pipeline in real time and transmits the image data to the control core. Through the illumination of the polarized light source, the image contrast is enhanced. Image preprocessing: The collected original images are preprocessed, including noise filtering, brightness adjustment, and contrast enhancement to remove interference. Defect detection and classification module: The preprocessed images are analyzed using basic image processing algorithms.

[0032] It should be noted that the present invention is a sensor-based visual inspection robot and system for mechanical equipment. When in use, the pipeline robot 1 is placed inside the pipeline to be inspected. The operator controls the movement of the pipeline robot 1 inside the pipeline through the handheld remote control, and through the monitoring platform, visual inspection of the inner wall of the pipeline is carried out through the camera assembly 214 and the lighting lamp 215. During the inspection of the pipeline by the pipeline robot 1, according to the bending situation of the pipeline, the operator can control the telescopic movement of the first electric telescopic rod 27 through the handheld remote control, so that the first rack 28 moves and pushes the first fixed gear 25 to rotate. The first fixed gear 25 drives the cross shaft 24 to rotate inside the support frame 23, causing the connecting block 213 to swing up and down. Through the telescopic movement of the second electric telescopic rod 211, the second rack 212 moves and pushes the second fixed gear 210 to rotate, causing the rotating frame 29 to rotate on the outer surface of the cross shaft 24, making the connecting block 213 swing left and right, thereby realizing the multi-directional rotation of the connecting block 213 and making the camera assembly 214 and the lighting lamp 215 in a relatively parallel state with the inner wall of the pipeline, facilitating the inspection of the bent part of the pipeline. When there is a lot of dirt on the inner wall of the pipeline and it is not convenient to detect the inner wall of the pipeline, at this time, the operator holds the remote control to control the pipeline robot 1 to move to the dirt area, controls the cleaning module to clean, starts the unfolding motor 39, makes the rotating shaft 310 rotate, the rotating piece 311 rotates, and the push rod 312 will push the fixed block 313 to move outward along the first cross track 37 and the second cross track 319, so that the cleaning brush 315 moves out of the inside of the side shell 31. The cleaning brush 315 fits to the inner wall surface of the pipeline, and controls the driving gear 317 to rotate through the rotating motor 316. Through the transmission of the rotating gear 318, the rotating disc 35 and the fixing plate 38 are rotated, and the cleaning brushes 315 on the outer surfaces of the second cross track 319 and the first cross track 37 are rotated, and the inner wall of the pipeline is cleaned by the cleaning brush 315. During this process, the exhaust fan 14 works, so that the right side of the side shell 31 is in a negative pressure state. The dust generated by the cleaning of the cleaning brush 315 enters the inside of the fixed housing 11 through the first dust suction port 34 and the second dust suction port 36, and is intercepted by the filter screen 13, so that the dust stays inside the fixed housing 11 and the filter screen 13, realizing the cleaning of the pipeline. After the cleaning is completed, the detection is carried out again by the detection device 2; When the detection robot detects that there are damages and cracks on the inner wall of the pipeline, the warning and alarm module of the detection robot emits an alarm sound. The operator can determine the position of the pipeline damage according to the sound and make a mark on the outside of the pipeline for convenient later processing of the pipeline.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification only illustrate the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.

The visual inspection robot system according to claim 9, characterized in that: The visual detection module also includes image acquisition: the camera continuously acquires images inside the pipeline and transmits the image data to the control core. Through the illumination of the polarized light source, the image contrast is enhanced; Image preprocessing: The acquired original images are preprocessed, including noise filtering, brightness adjustment, and contrast enhancement, to remove interference; Defect Detection and Classification Module: Analyze the preprocessed image using basic image processing algorithms.
