Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of bridge inspection technology, and in particular relates to a bridge crack detection device and method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, bridge inspections mostly involve using cranes to lift a basket, with inspectors standing inside to inspect the lower surface of the bridge. However, when the basket tilts due to the counterweight, it can easily cause safety accidents. At the same time, manually inspecting the lower surface of the bridge is inconvenient. To address these issues, the inventor proposes a bridge inspection counterweight mechanism and a bridge inspection device.

[0003] Patent application CN117684451A discloses an adjustable crack detection device for the underside of bridges. By mounting the device across the guardrail on the side of the bridge and using a detection rod to move a camera back and forth, the device can detect cracks on the underside of the bridge without obstructing traffic or affecting other vehicles. However, this mounting is designed for fixing the camera and lacks a structure for fixing other detection instruments, thus limiting its versatility in detection capabilities.

[0004] Patent application CN211897840U discloses a bridge inspection counterweight mechanism and a bridge inspection device, which performs non-destructive testing on the bottom of a bridge using a bridge inspection instrument. By setting up a hinged seat, a hinged pin, and a linear sliding mechanism, the hinged seat is installed at the bottom of a vertical rod. A support plate rotates relative to the hinged seat via the hinged pin and rotates around the hinged pin as a fulcrum under the drive of a servo motor. This allows the bridge inspection instrument to rotate to the entire area under the bridge for inspection. The linear sliding mechanism allows the bridge inspection instrument to slide on the support plate, enabling inspection at different locations on the bridge's bottom surface. However, this device includes a counterweight vehicle, which needs to be installed on the bridge deck, making it impossible to perform inspections under the bridge. Summary of the Invention

A transmission wheel is fixedly mounted at one end of each of the two second rotating rods. A transmission belt is drivingly connected between the two transmission wheels. A movable block is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the transmission belt. A drive rod is fixedly mounted on one side of the movable block. The end of the drive rod away from the movable block is in movable contact with the inner wall of the strip groove.

[0012] Preferably, the frame plate is fixedly connected to both the upper and lower surfaces with mounting ears, the mounting ears are provided with mounting holes, the surface of the mounting sleeve is provided with a limiting component, and the interior of the mounting sleeve is provided with a disassembly and assembly mechanism for disassembling and assembling the main body of the detector.

The end of the threaded rod away from the fixing plate is fixedly installed with a handle.

[0016] The bridge crack detection method of the aforementioned detection device includes the following steps:

[0017] S1: When it is necessary to inspect the lower surface of the bridge, first place the instrument body inside the mounting sleeve, and fix the frame plate on the boom of the crane through multiple mounting holes. When the boom of the crane lifts the frame plate, the upper surface of the horizontal plate and the lower surface of the bridge are vertically aligned. When the upper surface of the two rubber pads contacts the lower surface of the bridge, the lifting of the frame plate is stopped.

[0018] S2: Simultaneously turn on the first motor and the detector body, the first moving seat causes the two first guide blocks to slide horizontally back and forth along the inner wall of the first guide groove and the detector body to move horizontally back and forth through the mounting sleeve;

[0019] S3: When the two first guide blocks slide horizontally to the ends of the two first guide grooves, the second motor is turned on. The drive shaft of the second motor causes a second rotating rod to rotate. The two second rotating rods are transmitted by the transmission belt through the two transmission wheels. The transmission belt causes the drive rod to move horizontally through the moving block. The drive rod causes the second moving seat to move longitudinally through the strip groove. The second moving seat causes the detector body to move longitudinally through the cross plate and the mounting sleeve. Thus, the detector body can detect the underside of the bridge by moving laterally and longitudinally.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0021] 1. By placing the detector body inside the mounting sleeve, and driving the two L-shaped fixing plates and two L-shaped protective pads to move closer to each other, the two L-shaped protective pads fix the detector body inside the mounting sleeve, thus facilitating the fixed installation of the detector body and effectively improving the convenience of installing the detector body. At the same time, it is convenient for subsequent staff to disassemble and maintain the detector body.

[0022] 2. When the external crane begins to lift the frame plate, the upper surface of the horizontal plate and the lower surface of the bridge are vertically aligned. The lifting of the frame plate stops when the upper surface of the rubber pad contacts the lower surface of the bridge. The limiting plate and the rubber pad protect the detector body, preventing damage to the detector body from contact with the lower surface of the bridge during lifting operations. At the same time, the telescopic rod and telescopic spring give the limiting plate a certain degree of flexibility, making it easy to control the distance between the detector body and the lower surface of the bridge. This invention uses a crane for lifting, which is convenient for deployment at appropriate locations on or under the bridge according to the terrain or construction needs.

[0023] 3. By driving the first moving seat to move horizontally, the first moving seat causes the detector body to move horizontally through the mounting sleeve. By driving the second moving seat to move horizontally, the second moving seat causes the detector body to move vertically through the cross plate and mounting sleeve. This facilitates the horizontal and vertical movement of the detector body, which completes the inspection of the bridge's underside surface. This effectively improves the convenience of inspecting the bridge's underside surface. At the same time, compared with existing technologies, the inspection method using a suspended basket and manual labor avoids injury to inspection personnel due to the basket tipping over, thus improving the safety of bridge underside surface inspection operations.

When the horizontal plate 2 is on the lower surface of the bridge, the limiting component 9 can limit the distance between the horizontal plate 2 and the lower surface of the bridge, so as to prevent the upper surface of the detector body 4 from contacting the lower surface of the bridge and causing damage to the detector body 4.

A longitudinal moving mechanism 7 is set up, which moves the detector body 4 vertically through the horizontal plate 2 and the mounting sleeve 3. A limiting component 9 is set up, which limits the distance between the horizontal plate 2 and the lower surface of the bridge when the horizontal plate 2 is on the lower surface of the bridge, so as to avoid the upper surface of the detector body 4 from contacting the lower surface of the bridge and causing damage to the detector body 4. A disassembly and assembly mechanism 10 is set up, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the detector body 4, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the detector body 4 by the staff.

[0038] The frame plate 1 is fixedly connected with evenly distributed mounting ears 11 on both the top and bottom surfaces. Mounting holes 12 are provided on the mounting ears 11. Through the mounting ears 11 and mounting holes 12, it is easy for the staff to fix the frame plate 1 to the boom of the crane.

[0039] By adopting the above technical solution and by setting the mounting ears 11 and mounting holes 12, it is convenient for workers to fix the frame plate 1 to the boom of the crane.

[0040] The lateral movement mechanism 5 includes a reciprocating screw 51. A first through groove 511 is provided on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 2. One end of the reciprocating screw 51 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the first through groove 511. A first movable seat 52 is provided on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 2. Two first guide grooves 53 are provided on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 2. A first guide block 54 is slidably connected to the inner wall of each of the two first guide grooves 53. The first guide block 54 can slide horizontally along the inner wall of the first guide groove 53. The upper surface of the two first guide blocks 54 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the first movable seat 52. The first guide block 54 can keep the first movable seat 52 moving horizontally. A synchronizing rod 55 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the first movable seat 52. A connecting block 56 is rotatably installed on the end of the synchronizing rod 55 away from the first movable seat 52. The connecting block 56 is in active contact with the threaded groove of the reciprocating screw 51. By rotating the reciprocating screw 51, the reciprocating screw 51 can make the first movable seat 52 move horizontally back and forth through the connecting block 56 and the synchronizing rod 55.

[0041] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting the first guide groove 53 and the first guide block 54, the first guide block 54 can enable the first moving seat 52 to maintain horizontal movement. By rotating the reciprocating screw 51, the reciprocating screw 51 causes the first moving seat 52 to reciprocate horizontally through the connecting block 56 and the synchronizing rod 55.

[0042] A second through groove 57 is provided on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 2. The second through groove 57 and the first through groove 511 are arranged on the same plane along the length of the horizontal plate 2. A first rotating rod 58 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the second through groove 57. One end of the first rotating rod 58 is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw 51. The first rotating rod 58 can make the reciprocating screw 51 rotate. A first motor 59 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the second through groove 57. The drive output end of the first motor 59 is fixedly connected to one end of the first rotating rod 58. By turning on the first motor 59, the drive shaft of the first motor 59 can make the first rotating rod 58 rotate.

[0043] By adopting the above technical solution, by turning on the first motor 59, the drive shaft of the first motor 59 causes the first rotating rod 58 to rotate, and the first rotating rod 58 causes the reciprocating screw 51 to rotate.

[0044] A first fixing block 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the first motor 59 away from the first rotating rod 58. The side of the first fixing block 6 away from the first motor 59 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second through groove 57. By setting the first fixing block 6, the first fixing block 6 can support and fix the first motor 59, thereby improving the stability of the first motor 59.

[0045] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting the first fixing block 6, the stability of the first motor 59 is improved.

[0046] The longitudinal moving mechanism 7 includes a second movable seat 71, one side of which is fixedly connected to one side of the horizontal plate 2. When the second movable seat 71 moves longitudinally horizontally, it can move the detector body 4 longitudinally horizontally via the horizontal plate 2 and the mounting sleeve 3. A strip groove 72 is provided on the inner wall of the second movable seat 71. Two second guide grooves 73 are provided on one side of the frame plate 1. Second guide blocks 74 are slidably connected to the inner walls of both second guide grooves 73. The second guide blocks 74 can slide horizontally along the inner walls of the second guide grooves 73. One side of the two second guide blocks 74 is fixedly connected to one side of the second movable seat 71. The second guide blocks 74 can keep the second movable seat 71 in a horizontal position. The machine moves horizontally. Two second rotating rods 75 are rotatably mounted on one side of the frame plate 1. A transmission wheel 76 is fixedly mounted on one end of each of the two second rotating rods 75. A transmission belt 77 is connected between the two transmission wheels 76. The two second rotating rods 75 can transmit power through the transmission belt 77 via the two transmission wheels 76. A moving block 78 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the transmission belt 77. A drive rod 79 is fixedly mounted on one side of the moving block 78. The transmission belt 77 can move the drive rod 79 horizontally via the moving block 78. The end of the drive rod 79 away from the moving block 78 is in movable contact with the inner wall of the strip groove 72. The drive rod 79 can move the second moving seat 71 reciprocating horizontally via the strip groove 72.

[0047] By adopting the above technical solution, by driving a second rotating rod 75 to rotate, the two second rotating rods 75 transmit power through the transmission belt 77 via the two transmission wheels 76, the transmission belt 77 causes the drive rod 79 to move horizontally via the moving block 78, the drive rod 79 causes the second moving seat 71 to move longitudinally reciprocally via the strip groove 72, and the second moving seat 71 causes the detector body 4 to move longitudinally reciprocally via the horizontal plate 2 and the mounting sleeve 3.

[0048] A second motor 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the frame plate 1. The drive output end of the second motor 8 is fixedly connected to one end of a second rotating rod 75. By turning on the second motor 8, the drive shaft of the second motor 8 can make a second rotating rod 75 rotate. A second fixing block 81 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second motor 8. One side of the second fixing block 81 is fixedly connected to one side of the frame plate 1. The second fixing block 81 can support and fix the second motor 8, thereby improving the stability of the second motor 8.

[0049] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting a second fixing block 81, the second fixing block 81 supports and fixes the second motor 8, thereby improving the stability of the second motor 8. By turning on the second motor 8, the drive shaft of the second motor 8 causes a second rotating rod 75 to rotate.

[0050] The limiting assembly 9 includes two limiting plates 91, each with a rubber pad 92 fixedly mounted on its upper surface. When an external crane lifts the frame plate 1 to the lower surface of the bridge via its boom, the lifting of the frame plate 1 stops when the upper surface of the rubber pad 92 contacts the lower surface of the bridge. The limiting plates 91 and rubber pads 92 are designed to prevent the upper surface of the detector body 4 from contacting the lower surface of the bridge and causing damage to the detector body 4. Base plates 93 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting sleeve 3, and telescopic joints are fixedly mounted on the upper surfaces of both base plates 93. The piston end of the telescopic rod 94 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the limiting plate 91. The outer walls of the two telescopic rods 94 are movably fitted with telescopic springs 95. One end of the telescopic spring 95 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 93, and the end of the telescopic spring 95 away from the base plate 93 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the limiting plate 91. By setting the telescopic rods 94 and the telescopic springs 95, the limiting plate 91 and the rubber pad 92 have a certain degree of elasticity. When the boom of the external crane lifts the frame plate 1, it is convenient to control the distance between the detector body 4 and the lower surface of the bridge.

[0051] By adopting the above technical solution, when the external crane lifts the frame plate 1 to the lower surface of the bridge through the boom, the lifting of the frame plate 1 will stop when the upper surface of the rubber pad 92 contacts the lower surface of the bridge. The setting of the limiting plate 91 and the rubber pad 92 avoids the upper surface of the detector body 4 from contacting the lower surface of the bridge, which would cause damage to the detector body 4. By setting the telescopic rod 94 and the telescopic spring 95, the limiting plate 91 and the rubber pad 92 have a certain degree of flexibility. When the boom of the external crane lifts the frame plate 1, it is convenient to control the distance between the detector body 4 and the lower surface of the bridge.

[0052] The disassembly and assembly mechanism 10 includes two L-shaped fixing plates 101. The L-shaped fixing plates 101 are in movable contact with the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 3. When the two L-shaped fixing plates 101 move towards each other, the two L-shaped fixing plates 101 can fix the detector body 4 inside the mounting sleeve 3. The inner wall of the mounting sleeve 3 is fixedly installed with evenly distributed guide rods 103. The piston ends of two adjacent guide rods 103 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of an L-shaped fixing plate 101. By setting the guide rods 103, the guide rods 103 can make the L-shaped fixing plate 101 move horizontally. Threaded rods 104 are threadedly rotatably installed on both sides of the mounting sleeve 3. One end of the threaded rod 104 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the L-shaped fixing plate 101. By rotating the threaded rod 104, the threaded rod 104 can make the L-shaped fixing plate 101 move horizontally.

[0053] The shape and size of the inner cavity of the mounting sleeve 3 and the fixing plate 101 can be set according to different detection requirements, which facilitates the installation and fixing of different detection instruments, thereby increasing the types of instruments that can be detected by the present invention.

[0054] By adopting the above technical solution, after the detector body 4 is placed inside the mounting sleeve 3, by rotating the two threaded rods 104, the two threaded rods 104 bring the two L-shaped fixing plates 101 closer to each other, and the two L-shaped fixing plates 101 fix the detector body 4 inside the mounting sleeve 3.

[0055] L-shaped protective pads 102 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the two L-shaped fixing plates 101. The inner walls of the two L-shaped protective pads 102 are in contact with the outer wall of the detector body 4. The L-shaped fixing plates 101 can fix the detector body 4 through the L-shaped protective pads 102. The L-shaped protective pads 102 can prevent the outer shell of the detector body 4 from being worn. Handles 105 are fixedly installed on the ends of the two threaded rods 104 away from the L-shaped fixing plates 101. The threaded rods 104 can be rotated by turning the handles 105.

[0056] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting an L-shaped protective pad 102, the L-shaped fixing plate 101 is fixed to the detector body 4 by the L-shaped protective pad 102. The L-shaped protective pad 102 prevents the outer shell of the detector body 4 from being worn. By turning the knob handle 105, the threaded rod 104 is rotated.

[0057] The bridge crack detection method of the aforementioned detection device comprises the following steps:

[0058] When it is necessary to inspect the lower surface of the bridge, the staff first places the instrument body 4 in the center inside the mounting sleeve 3, and then simultaneously turns the two handles 105. The two handles 105 cause the two threaded rods 104 to rotate. As the two threaded rods 104 rotate, the two L-shaped fixing plates 101 and the two L-shaped protective pads 102 move closer to each other. At the same time, the piston ends of the four guide rods 103 extend until the inner walls of the two L-shaped protective pads 102 are in close contact with the outer shell of the instrument body 4. Then, the staff stops turning the two handles 105. At this time, the two L-shaped fixing plates 101 fix the instrument body 4 inside the mounting sleeve 3, thus facilitating the fixed installation of the instrument body 4 and effectively improving the convenience of installing the instrument body 4. At the same time, it is convenient for the staff to disassemble and maintain the instrument body 4 later.

[0059] Subsequently, the frame plate 1 is fixed to the boom of the crane through multiple mounting holes 12. When the boom of the crane lifts the frame plate 1, the upper surface of the horizontal plate 2 and the lower surface of the bridge are vertically aligned. When the upper surfaces of the two rubber pads 92 contact the lower surface of the bridge, the lifting of the frame plate 1 is stopped. At this time, the two limiting plates 91 and the two rubber pads 92 protect the detector body 4 inside the mounting sleeve 3 to prevent the detector body 4 from contacting the lower surface of the bridge during the lifting operation and causing damage to the detector body 4. At the same time, the two telescopic rods 94 and the two telescopic springs 95 give the two limiting plates 91 a certain degree of flexibility, which makes it easy to control the distance between the detector body 4 and the lower surface of the bridge.

[0060] Finally, the first motor 59 and the detector body 4 are turned on simultaneously. The drive shaft of the first motor 59 causes the first rotating rod 58 to rotate, which in turn causes the reciprocating screw 51 to rotate. Simultaneously, the reciprocating screw 51 rotates, causing the first moving seat 52 to move laterally via the connecting block 56 and the synchronizing rod 55. The first moving seat 52 causes the two first guide blocks 54 to slide horizontally back and forth along the inner wall of the first guide groove 53, and the detector body 4 to move laterally via the mounting sleeve 3. When the two first guide blocks 54 slide horizontally to the ends of the two first guide grooves 53, the second motor 8 is turned on. The drive shaft of the second motor 8 causes one second rotating rod 75 to rotate, and the two second rotating rods 75 move laterally via two... A transmission wheel 76 drives the transmission belt 77 to transmit power. The transmission belt 77 moves the drive rod 79 horizontally via the moving block 78. The drive rod 79 moves the second moving seat 71 longitudinally via the strip groove 72. The second moving seat 71 moves the detector body 4 longitudinally via the cross plate 2 and the mounting sleeve 3. This facilitates the lateral and longitudinal movement of the detector body 4. The lateral and longitudinal movement of the detector body 4 completes the inspection of the bridge's underside surface, thus effectively improving the convenience of inspecting the bridge's underside surface. At the same time, compared with existing technologies, the inspection is carried out by using a suspended basket and manual labor, avoiding injury to the inspection personnel due to the basket tipping over, and improving the safety of bridge underside surface inspection operations.
