Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of pipeline detection and maintenance systems, and specifically relates to an intelligent pipeline detection and maintenance method and system based on multi-source renewable energy energy supply. Background Art

[0002] Existing pipeline inspection and maintenance systems primarily rely on battery power or external wired power. However, these traditional power supply methods present numerous problems. On the one hand, battery capacity is limited, and endurance is severely insufficient, resulting in short operating times and difficulty meeting the continuous operation requirements of long-distance pipelines, greatly limiting the efficiency and scope of pipeline inspection and maintenance work. On the other hand, pipelines often contain abundant renewable energy sources such as sunlight, fluid kinetic energy, and temperature differences, but existing robots fail to fully utilize these resources, resulting in significant energy waste. Furthermore, traditional wired charging methods require the robot to return to a fixed charging point, which not only increases operational complexity but also severely impacts inspection efficiency and reduces the flexibility and timeliness of pipeline maintenance work. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a pipeline inspection and maintenance system that incorporates new energy technologies to enhance endurance, improve inspection and maintenance efficiency, and fill the gaps in existing technology in this area. An existing AI-based gas pipeline leak detection method (Bian Zhiyuan. Research on the Application of Artificial Intelligence in New Energy Gas Pipeline Leak Detection [R]. Beijing: Beijing Gas User Service Co., Ltd., 2025) uses a deep learning algorithm to analyze gas flow characteristics and pipeline continuity equations to achieve high-precision leak location. Its core technology combines sensor data with machine learning models, but its energy supply still relies on traditional batteries or external power sources, with no mention of renewable energy sources. A drawback is its single energy source, which fails to utilize ambient energy sources such as sunlight and fluid kinetic energy within the pipeline. Furthermore, it lacks a dynamic energy management strategy, making it impossible to optimize the coordinated operation of multiple energy sources. Existing technologies are based on smart grid status monitoring technology based on multi-source fusion (Yan Bo, Zhang Hao, Guo Ziming, et al. Research and application of comprehensive analysis and intelligent alarm technology of power grid faults based on multi-source data fusion [J]. Power System Protection and Control, 2018, 46(8): 5-12.) which optimizes power grid monitoring by integrating multi-source data (such as equipment operation data and environmental parameters) and emphasizes data fusion and AI analysis. However, it does not design a new energy supply module for pipeline scenarios and does not solve the technical problem of energy recovery in pipelines. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent pipeline inspection and maintenance method and system powered by multiple renewable energy sources, addressing the challenges of traditional pipeline inspection and maintenance methods, such as insufficient endurance, low energy utilization efficiency, low operational efficiency, and significant safety hazards. By integrating multiple renewable energy technologies with intelligent management strategies, this invention achieves efficient, intelligent, environmentally friendly, and autonomous pipeline inspection and maintenance operations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] To better understand the present invention, this embodiment first introduces an intelligent pipeline inspection and maintenance system based on multi-source renewable energy power supply, including: a photovoltaic power generation module, a fluid energy recovery module, a temperature difference thermoelectric conversion module, an intelligent energy management system, a wireless charging module, and a pipeline inspection and maintenance module.

[0048] The photovoltaic power generation module includes an expandable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell assembly, a sensor assembly, a micro servo motor or a shape memory alloy; the expandable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell assembly is connected to the micro servo motor or the shape memory alloy, and is driven by the micro servo motor or the shape memory alloy to achieve dynamic adjustment of the expansion angle and position of the expandable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell assembly.

[0049] As an embodiment, the sensor assembly includes a light intensity sensor (such as a photodiode array) and a spatial layout sensor (such as a lidar or a depth camera). The light intensity sensor and the spatial layout sensor are installed inside the pipeline to collect light distribution and pipeline geometry data in real time. The collected light distribution and pipeline geometry data are transmitted to the edge computing module. The edge computing module (Shi W, Cao J, Zhang Q, et al. Edge Computing: Visionand Challenges[J]. IEEE Internet of Things Journal, 2016, 3(5): 637-646.) analyzes the sensor data, combines the machine learning algorithm to predict the optimal deployment position, and generates control instructions for controlling the micro servo motor or shape memory alloy.

[0050] As an example, the deployable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell assembly is composed of a transparent conductive oxide, a perovskite light absorption layer, electron transport materials such as titanium dioxide (TiO2) and tin oxide (SnO2), and metal electrodes. Sensors, micro-servo motors, or shape memory alloys are used to control the deployable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell assembly to its optimal position, storing electrical energy in an energy storage device. Transparent conductive oxides are made from flexible materials such as polyimide (PI), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), indium tin oxide (ITO), or fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO).

[0051] The unfoldable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell module is a flexible perovskite solar cell (Jeon et al., "Perovskite Solar Cells with High Efficiency and Flexibility", Nature Energy, 2020). Its flexible substrate (such as PET or PI film) is combined with a perovskite light-absorbing layer, and tri(p-tolyl)phosphine (TTP) interface passivation treatment is used to reduce surface defects and improve carrier mobility, thereby achieving an energy conversion efficiency of 23.81%.

[0052] The fluid energy recovery module includes flow sensors and pressure sensors for real-time monitoring of fluid velocity and direction. These sensors, installed within the pipeline, transmit the collected data to an intelligent control system, which dynamically adjusts the micro-turbine generator's blade angle to optimize energy recovery efficiency. This intelligent control system uses a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize blade angle and rotational speed in real time, ensuring efficient power generation under varying fluid operating conditions.

[0053] The micro-turbine generator is equipped with an intelligent control system that can automatically adjust the blade angle according to the flow rate and direction of the fluid in the pipeline to optimize energy recovery efficiency. The micro-turbine generator housing uses a polyimide (PI) film substrate. After the intelligent control system is initialized, the flow rate sensor and pressure sensor begin to monitor parameters such as the flow rate, flow direction, and pressure of the fluid in the pipeline. Based on this monitoring data, the intelligent control system optimizes the blade angle and rotation speed of the micro-turbine generator to maximize energy recovery efficiency. During operation, the micro-turbine generator uses the kinetic energy of the fluid flow in the pipeline to drive the rotor and stator inside the generator through the rotation of the turbine, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy to power the system.

[0054] The temperature difference thermoelectric conversion module includes a temperature sensor for real-time monitoring of temperature difference and a flexible thermoelectric generator. The data collected by the temperature sensor installed in the pipeline is optimized using a genetic algorithm to optimize the structural parameters and operating temperature range of the flexible thermoelectric generator.

[0055] In one embodiment, the flexible thermoelectric generator (FTEG) features a serpentine folded array structured on a polyimide (PI) substrate and a bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) thermoelectric film. The serpentine array is bonded to the inside of the pipeline robot's housing via thermally conductive silicone. A phase-change energy storage material (paraffin wax / expanded graphite PCM composite) is incorporated into the flexible thermoelectric generator (FTEG) to maintain temperature stability and energy supply, ensuring stable operation. This flexible thermoelectric generator (FTEG) utilizes a flexible thermoelectric generator (FTEG) structure and optimizes its design to improve thermoelectric conversion efficiency. The device can generate an open-circuit voltage of 173 millivolts and a power output of 4.5 milliwatts at a temperature gradient of 50K. This embodiment incorporates a phase-change energy storage material to effectively improve the efficiency of temperature differences, stably converting temperature differences into electrical energy, providing additional energy for the system and enhancing its energy self-sufficiency. The flexible thermoelectric generator (FTEG) utilizes a flexible thermoelectric generator (FTEG) structure and optimizes its design to improve thermoelectric conversion efficiency.

[0056] In this embodiment, the intelligent energy management system monitors the power generation status of the photovoltaic power generation module, fluid energy recovery module, and thermoelectric conversion module in real time by fusing multi-source sensor data and a deep learning model, and optimizes power distribution. At the same time, the photovoltaic output power of the deployable flexible perovskite photovoltaic cell assembly, the turbine speed of the micro-turbine generator, the temperature difference voltage inside and outside the pipeline, the environmental images obtained by the camera on the inner wall of the pipeline, and the structural data of the ring obtained by the ultrasonic sensor are pre-processed by the edge computing module and input into a lightweight CNN network (Goodfellow I, Bengio Y, Courville A. Deep Learning[M]. MIT Press, 2016.) to extract the spatial characteristics of pipeline defects and form a pipeline health status assessment matrix.

[0057] The wireless charging module monitors the charging status of the photovoltaic power generation module, the fluid energy recovery module, and the temperature difference thermoelectric conversion module by the energy storage device based on a first-order RC circuit model, and uses a Kalman filter algorithm to predict the charge status.

[0058] The pipeline inspection and maintenance module includes a multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm connected to an energy storage device that provides stable power. The end of the multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm can be equipped with interchangeable tool heads, such as cutting heads, welding heads, and cleaning brushes, to accommodate a variety of inspection and maintenance tasks. Before the system is operational, the module performs initialization checks on the high-definition camera, ultrasonic sensor, robotic arm, and other equipment to ensure proper function. Based on the pre-set inspection and maintenance tasks, a tool head replacement mechanism at the end of the robotic arm automatically replaces the corresponding tool head.

[0059] As an example, Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm of this embodiment includes a base structure, a drive and transmission structure, and an arm structure. The base structure is connected to the arm structure via bolts to ensure the stability and reliability of the arm structure. The base structure is equipped with a cleaning module for cleaning sediment and dirt from the inner wall of the pipe.

[0060] The base structure is the basic support structure of the robot arm and includes a lower base 17, a middle base 21, an upper base 22, a support base 24, and a base plate 16. Each base is fixed by bolts to form a multi-layer frame, and the multi-layer frame is fixed to the base plate 16. The support base 24 is the core installation platform of the drive and transmission system.

[0061] like Figure 5 As shown, the lower base 17 is fixed to the bottom plate 16 by a first stud 19, providing overall stability as the base of the robot arm.

[0062] The middle base 21 is mounted on the lower base 17 via the second stud 11 and carries the movement function of the robotic arm.

[0063] The upper base 22 is mounted on the middle base 21 via the third stud 10 as an intermediate support layer. A deep groove ball bearing 29 is provided between the middle base 21 and the upper base 22.

[0064] The support base 24 is fixed to the top of the upper base 22 by bolts 9 and is used to fix the drive and transmission structure.

[0065] The motor plate 13 is fixed to the underside of the base plate 16. A M15×8 brushless DC reduction motor 14 is mounted on the motor plate 13. This M15×8 brushless DC reduction motor 14 is connected to a first servo 15. The first servo 15 is fixed to the side of the lower base 17. Its output shaft is connected to a circular metal steering wheel 28. Rotating the steering wheel by the first servo 15 controls the direction of the robotic arm. An aluminum base plate 18 is positioned above the first servo 15 on the lower surface of the middle base 21.

[0066] The driving and transmission structure includes a connecting rod gear 25, a connecting rod shaft 26, and a connecting rod rack. Figure 6 As shown, one end of the connecting rod shaft 26 is embedded in the center hole of the connecting rod gear 25, and the other end is connected to the connecting rod rack via a keyway, achieving the conversion of rotational motion to linear motion. A second servo 27 is mounted on the support base 24 to drive the connecting rod gear 25. The second servo 27 is secured to the support base 24 via a thin hexagonal nut 30. The connecting rod rack is bolted to the bottom of the connecting rod 2 and meshes with the connecting rod gear 25. The second servo 27 drives the connecting rod gear 25, which in turn drives the connecting rod rack in linear motion, thereby driving the connecting rod 2 to extend and retract.

[0067] The arm structure comprises an upper arm 4, a lower arm 5, and auxiliary supports. One end of the upper arm 4 is hinged to one end of the lower arm 5. The other end of the upper arm 4 is connected to the claw arm 3 via a connecting rod 2. The connecting rod 2 is driven by the linear motion of the connecting rod rack, enabling the arm structure to extend and retract. The other end of the lower arm 5 is connected to a connecting rod 6, which is mounted on a support base 24 via a hexagon socket head cap screw 7. The claw arm 3 is terminated with a replaceable claw 1. A deep groove ball bearing is installed at the hinged joint between the claw arm 3 and the connecting rod 2, providing low-friction support and enabling the rotation of tool heads (such as cutting and welding heads, which can be installed externally) while ensuring flexible rotation.

[0068] The auxiliary support includes the rear arm 8 and the arm 23. The rear arm 8 is mounted on the base plate 16 via the first support member 12, and the arm 23 is mounted on the base plate 16 via the second support member 20, further stabilizing the structure. The rear arm 8 and the arm 23 are located on both sides of the support base 24 to enhance the structural rigidity.

[0069] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the cleaning module includes a first motor, a main frame, a pipeline robot cleaning component 48, and a wheel assembly. The main frame includes the second pipeline robot splicing plate 33, the third pipeline robot splicing plate 34, the fourth pipeline robot splicing plate 35, and the first pipeline robot splicing plate 36. These two panels form a box-like load-bearing structure. The main frame is also equipped with multiple robot side panels (first pipeline robot side panel 37, second pipeline robot side panel 38, and third pipeline robot side panel 39). The main frame is secured to the inner wall of the pipeline using multiple M10×60 hexagonal flange nuts, providing a rigid support. A first pipeline robot cover plate 40 is secured to the first pipeline robot splicing plate 36. The first pipeline robot cover plate 40 and the fourth pipeline robot side panel 55 form a closed protective layer. The first motor is secured to the second pipeline robot splicing plate 33, located at the front end of the main frame.

[0070] The pipeline robot cleaning component 48 is connected to the output shaft of the 60kg dual-axis servo 32 through a coupling, driving the cleaning component to rotate. The dual-axis servo 32 is fixed to the second pipeline robot splicing plate 33 by a first screw 53 and a second screw 54.

[0071] The power of the first motor is transmitted through a coupling to the transmission assembly (which includes the connecting rod gear 25, the drive shaft 47 of the pipeline robot's cleaning unit 48, and other components). The coupling is secured to the second pipeline robot's splicing plate 33 using a 62-GB / T 16674-1996 hexagonal flange nut M10×60 to ensure stable power transmission. The connecting rod gear 25 and the drive shaft 47 are connected by a keyway, transmitting the rotational power to the drive shaft of the pipeline robot's cleaning unit 48.

[0072] The main frame is also equipped with multiple welded plates: the first welded plate secures the first motor; the second welded plate supports the sidewalls of the first, second, and third pipeline robot side panels 37, 38, and 39; the third welded plate forms the bottom load-bearing structure; and the fourth welded plate provides sealing. Each welded plate is joined together using screws and nuts.

[0073] like Figure 3 As shown, the fourth pipeline robot side plate 55 is also welded and spliced ​​with the high-strength load-bearing frame to simultaneously fix the transmission components of the first motor and the pipeline robot cleaning part 48; the high-strength load-bearing frame includes the first pipeline robot connecting plate 42, the second pipeline robot connecting plate 43, the third pipeline robot connecting plate 49, the fourth pipeline robot connecting plate 50, the fifth pipeline robot connecting plate 51, and the sixth pipeline robot connecting plate 52.

[0074] The first pipeline robot connecting plate 42 and the second pipeline robot connecting plate 43 are spliced ​​together through hexagonal flange nuts to form side wall supports. The third pipeline robot connecting plate 49, the fourth pipeline robot connecting plate 50, the sixth pipeline robot connecting plate 52 and the fifth pipeline robot connecting plate 51 are combined to form the bottom load-bearing layer, which is cushioned by springs.

[0075] A work plate 46 is mounted in the middle of the main frame. A pipe robot cleaning unit 48 is secured to this plate via a connecting block 45. The drive shaft of the pipe robot cleaning unit 48 meshes with the connecting rod gear 25. The wheel assembly of the pipe robot cleaning unit 48 includes symmetrically spaced wheels 41, which are mounted to one side of the main frame via shafts and bearings. Springs 44 are installed between the symmetrically spaced wheels to preload the wheels.

[0076] The base plate 16 of the base structure is connected to the main frame through the first pipeline robot splicing plate 36 to achieve integrated detection and cleaning functions. The DC brushless reduction motor 14, the first steering gear 15 and the first motor are coordinated and powered by an intelligent energy management system.

[0077] The pipeline cleaning principle of this embodiment: The cleaning module completes the task of cleaning the inner wall of the pipeline through the following steps:

[0078] 1).Power transmission: The motor drives the wheel group to rotate, pushing the cleaning module to move in the pipeline.

[0079] 2) Cleaning unit operation: The pipeline robot cleaning unit 48 cleans the sediment and dirt on the inner wall of the pipeline through rotation or vibration.

[0080] 3) Spring buffer: The spring 44 absorbs the impact of the uneven inner wall of the pipe, ensuring that the cleaning module maintains good contact with the inner wall of the pipe, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0081] The M15×8 brushless DC motor 14 and first servo 15 are powered by an energy storage device. This energy is derived from photovoltaic power generation, fluid energy recovery, and thermoelectric power generation modules, supplemented by a wireless charging module. Energy collected by the photovoltaic, fluid energy, and thermoelectric power generation modules is stored in the energy storage device, which prioritizes powering the brushless DC motor 14, first servo 15, and sensors.
