Description

[0002] The underwater pipeline is a key facility of water conservancy and hydropower engineering, and its structural strength is directly related to water transportation safety and engineering life. The underwater pipeline is subjected to water flow impact, silt erosion and chemical corrosion for a long time, and is prone to pipe wall thinning, cracking or structural degradation. Regular strength detection is the key to ensuring operation safety.

[0003] However, the underwater environment is complex, and thick silt is generally attached to the outer wall of the pipeline. Although the existing detection device can be submerged close to the pipeline, the detection probe needs to directly contact the pipe wall. The silt layer on the surface of the pipeline not only hinders the effective adhesion of the probe to the pipe wall, but also absorbs or scatters ultrasonic energy, resulting in measurement data deviation and defect missed detection. Moreover, the turbulent water flow during detection causes repeated intrusion of turbid water, which easily forms a detection blind area and cannot maintain a stable detection environment. SUMMARY

[0041] The subject matter described herein will now be discussed with reference to example implementations. It should be understood that the discussion of these implementations is merely meant to provide a better understanding of the subject matter described herein and can be changed in function and arrangement without departing from the scope of the present description. Various processes or components can be omitted, substituted, or added according to desired implementations. Additionally, features described with respect to some examples can be combined in other examples.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1The application discloses a kind of water conservancy and hydropower engineering pipeline strength detection devices, applied to the strength detection of underwater pipeline 400, including rack 100 and detection unit 200;

[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 The detection unit 200 is arranged at the front end of the rack 100, including a mounting seat 210, a first cylinder 220, a detection piece 230, a separation piece 240 and a linkage 250, the mounting seat 210 is fixed on the rack 100, and the first cylinder 220 is installed on the mounting seat 210;The detection piece 230 is arranged at the output end of the first cylinder 220 and can move longitudinally relative to the mounting seat 210, for strength detection of the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400;The separation piece 240 is movably arranged at both ends of the detection piece 230 and can move transversely relative to the mounting seat 210, for isolating the detection area on the underwater pipeline 400 to form a detection space accommodating the detection piece 230;The linkage 250 is arranged between the detection piece 230 and the separation piece 240, for triggering the transverse movement of the two separation pieces 240 when the detection piece 230 moves longitudinally;

[0044] Specifically, the rack 100 is submerged to the position of the underwater pipeline 400, so that the detection unit 200 faces the detection area to be detected on the underwater pipeline 400, and the detection piece 230 is driven to move longitudinally (i.e., to feed radially towards the underwater pipeline 400) by the first cylinder 220, in the process of the detection piece 230 radially approaching the underwater pipeline 400, the linkage 250 is triggered to drive the two separation pieces 240 to move transversely synchronously (i.e., the two groups of separation pieces 240 are axially away from each other along the underwater pipeline 400), so that the separation piece 240 scrapes the silt attached to the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 in the detection area to be detected along the axial direction towards both ends of the underwater pipeline 400, so that the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 is exposed, and at the same time, an isolated space accommodating the detection piece 230 is formed in the detection area to be detected of the underwater pipeline 400, until the detection piece 230 contacts the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, so that the detection piece 230 can be used to detect the strength of the specified area of the underwater pipeline 400.

[0045] It should be noted that the detection piece 230 is radially fed to drive the two separation pieces 240 to be axially separated, in the process of the detection piece 230 approaching the pipeline, the action of scraping the silt on the outer wall of the detection area to be detected of the underwater pipeline 400 and forming a clean detection space is completed synchronously, which effectively improves the detection convenience and detection efficiency.

[0046] The separation piece 240 effectively scrapes and isolates the silt on the outer wall of the detection area to be detected, so that the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 is directly exposed, which ensures that the detection piece 230 can directly contact the clean wall surface for strength detection, effectively improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection result.

[0047] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the detection member 230 comprises a connecting frame 231 fixed to the output end of the first cylinder 220, and a mounting head 232 is arranged at the end of the connecting frame 231 away from the first cylinder 220, and a plurality of detection probes 233 are equidistantly arranged on the mounting head 232;

[0048] Specifically, the connecting frame 231 and the mounting head 232 are driven by the first cylinder 220 to approach the underwater pipeline 400 until the detection probes 233 contact the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, so that the underwater pipeline 400 can be detected by the detection probes 233; the plurality of detection probes 233 equidistantly arranged on the mounting head 232 can cover multiple detection points on the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 at a time, so as to improve the detection efficiency and avoid positioning errors of point-by-point detection.

[0049] The detection probe 233 can use a piezoelectric ultrasonic probe (such as Olympus V111-SM series or equivalent models), and the detection probe 233 can realize strength detection by ultrasonic pulse echo method:

[0050] Emission stage: the detection probe 233 emits high-frequency ultrasonic pulses to the wall of the underwater pipeline 400;

[0051] Propagation and reflection: the sound wave propagates in the wall and produces reflected echoes when encountering internal defects (such as cracks, corrosion) or the bottom surface of the wall;

[0052] Signal receiving and analysis: the detection probe 233 receives the echo signal, calculates the wall thickness by analyzing the sound wave propagation time, judges the internal defects (such as pores, debonding) according to the echo amplitude / shape, and then comprehensively evaluates the structural strength;

[0053] Data output: the data of multiple probes are processed by integrated circuits to generate a wall thickness distribution map and a defect positioning report (such as C-scan imaging).

[0054] Further, considering that only the two-way scraping of the silt adhered to the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 by the isolation plate 241, there will inevitably be some stubborn silt still remaining on the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400; in addition, the water flow disturbance caused by the movement of the isolation member 240 will also cause the water in the isolation space formed by the isolation plate 241 to be turbid, thereby affecting the strength detection of the underwater pipeline 400 by the detection probe 233, therefore, referring to Figure 3The mounting head 232 is provided with a water storage cavity 234, the connecting frame 231 is provided with a flow channel 235 communicating with the water storage cavity 234, the side of the mounting head 232 facing the underwater pipeline 400 is provided with a plurality of front water jet grooves 236, and the side of the mounting head 232 away from the underwater pipeline 400 is provided with a plurality of back water jet grooves 237.

[0055] Specifically, clean water is introduced into the water storage cavity 234 of the mounting head 232 through the flow channel 235, and then the clean water is sprayed out of the front water jet grooves 236 and the back water jet grooves 237. The clean water sprayed out of the front water jet grooves 236 can wash the outer pipe wall of the underwater pipeline 400 to remove residual silt and avoid interference of the residual silt with the detection process of the detection probe 233. The washed sewage is discharged from the gap between the isolation piece 240 and the underwater pipeline 400. The clean water sprayed out of the back water jet grooves 237 can wash the back side area in the isolation space, so as to promote the discharge of turbid water in the isolation space, improve the water quality clarity of the detection area, and improve the detection accuracy.

[0056] It should be noted that the front water jet grooves 236 are used to direct the spraying of clean water to directly flush the detection area of the outer pipe wall of the underwater pipeline 400, completely remove the stubborn silt remaining after the scraping of the isolation plate 241, avoid the interference of the silt with the contact between the detection probe 233 and the pipe wall, and ensure the authenticity of the detection data.

[0057] The back water jet grooves 237 are used to spray clean water to the back side of the isolation space to form a directional water flow, forcibly discharge the turbid water generated due to the movement of the isolation piece 240, improve the water quality transparency of the detection area, and ensure the propagation of the ultrasonic signal (detection probe 233) without being interfered by suspended particles.

[0058] Further, referring to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the mounting head 232 is further provided with a protection piece 238 matched with the detection probe 233. The protection piece 238 comprises flip plates 2381 symmetrically and rotatably installed on both sides of the detection probe 233. Flexible cover plates 2382 are arranged on both sides of the flip plates 2381, and magnetic attraction pieces 2383 matched with each other are arranged on both sides of the flexible cover plates 2382.

[0059] Specifically, in the initial state, the two magnetic attraction pieces 2383 are attracted to each other, so that the flexible cover plates 2382 and the flip plates 2381 on both sides enclose a closed space wrapping each detection probe 233. The detection probe 233 is wrapped and protected by the protection piece 238 to prevent silt from adhering to the surface of the detection probe 233 during the water flushing process.

[0060] Before the detection probe 233 contacts the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, the front water jetting groove 236 can be used to flush the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 during the process that the mounting head 232 and the detection probe 233 gradually approach the underwater pipeline 400. When the flap 2381 contacts the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, with the continuous feeding of the mounting head 232, the two flaps 2381 are forced to flip to the two sides respectively, the two magnetic attraction pieces 2383 are forced to separate, the protective piece 238 is forced to flip to the two sides to open, and the detection probe 233 is exposed. At this time, the front water jetting groove 236 has just flushed the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, and then the detection probe 233 contacts the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 which has been flushed, and the subsequent strength detection can be performed.

[0061] It should be noted that in the initial state and the flushing stage, the two flexible cover plates 2382 and the flap 2381 are enclosed to form a closed space by the magnetic attraction of the magnetic attraction piece 2383, so as to completely wrap the detection probe 233 and completely isolate the splashed silt during the water flow flushing, so as to avoid signal distortion or equipment damage caused by probe surface pollution.

[0062] The opening of the protective piece 238 is naturally triggered by the detection feeding action. When the flap 2381 contacts the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, with the continuous feeding of the mounting head 232, the pipeline reaction force forces the two flaps 2381 to flip outward, and the magnetic attraction of the magnetic attraction piece 2383 is automatically released. Moreover, the opening time of the protective piece 238 strictly matches the detection process. The flap 2381 contacts the outer wall to trigger the opening of the protective cover, and the detection probe 233 is exposed and contacts the outer wall to perform the strength detection immediately after the front water jetting groove 236 completes the flushing of the outer wall to make the outer wall clean, so as to realize the seamless connection of the three stages of protection, flushing and detection.

[0063] The flexible cover plate 2382 can be made of rubber or silicone material, which can be self-adapted to the curved surface of the mounting head 232 when closed, so as to ensure the sealing of the protective space. After being opened, the flap 2381 is folded and collected, and does not occupy the detection space.

[0064] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 7 The isolation piece 240 includes isolation plates 241 which are symmetrically distributed at two ends of the detection piece 230. The isolation plates 241 are provided with blades 242 which are adapted to the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 on the side facing the underwater pipeline 400. Flexible isolation membranes 245 which can be extended and adjusted are arranged between the two groups of isolation plates 241.

[0065] Specifically, in the initial state, the two sets of isolation plates 241 are in close contact with each other and do not interfere with the detection piece 230. As the first cylinder 220 drives the isolation plates 241 to feed radially towards the underwater pipeline 400, when the cutting edges 242 of the two sets of isolation plates 241 come into contact with the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, the isolation plates 241 cannot continue to feed radially. Under the triggering action of the linkage 250, the two sets of isolation plates 241 are forced to move axially away from each other along the underwater pipeline 400. The isolation plates 241 scrape off the silt adhering to the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400 towards both ends, so as to expose the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400. At the same time, the flexible isolation membranes 245 between the two sets of isolation plates 241 are also stretched adaptively, so as to form an isolation space enclosing the detection piece 230 by the two sets of isolation plates 241 and the two sets of flexible isolation membranes 245.

[0066] It should be noted that the flexible isolation membranes 245 are stretched adaptively when the two sets of isolation plates 241 are separated axially, and together with the isolation plates 241 form a four-sided closed isolation space, which blocks the intrusion of external silt and turbid water, and provides a stable clean detection environment for the detection probe 233.

[0067] The cutting edges 242 have positioning and scraping functions. When they come into contact with the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, they trigger the axial movement of the isolation plates 241, and at the same time scrape off the silt along the axial direction of the pipeline wall, improving the peeling efficiency of the silt and the pipeline wall.

[0068] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 One end of the isolation plate 241 is provided with a winding box 243, the winding box 243 is provided with a winding groove 244, and a winding drum (not shown in the figure) is rotatably installed in the winding box 243. A winding spring is connected between the winding drum and the winding box 243. One end of the flexible isolation membrane 245 is fixed to one set of isolation plates 241, and the other end of the flexible isolation membrane 245 penetrates through the winding groove 244 and is wound on the winding drum.

[0069] Specifically, when the two sets of isolation plates 241 move away from each other, the flexible isolation membrane 245 in the winding box 243 is pulled out at the same time, so as to enclose the isolation space and prevent external impurities from entering the isolation space. Due to the elastic force of the winding spring, the winding drum can always elastically wind the flexible isolation membrane 245, so as to ensure that the flexible isolation membrane 245 is in a tight state, and also realizes automatic winding of the flexible isolation membrane 245.

[0070] It should be noted that the winding drum driven by the winding spring continuously elastically winds the flexible isolation membrane 245, so as to ensure that the flexible isolation membrane 245 is in a tight state in real time when the isolation plates 241 are separated axially, avoiding wrinkles or relaxation caused by water flow impact, and ensuring the sealing reliability of the isolation space.

[0071] When the isolation plates 241 are reset, the elastic restoring force of the coil spring automatically retracts the flexible isolation film 245 into the winding drum, eliminating the risk of film entanglement or exposure damage, and improving the reuse efficiency of the device;

[0072] The winding box 243 is directly integrated into the side end of the isolation plate 241, and the winding groove 244 precisely guides the movement path of the flexible isolation film 245. The entire mechanism is embedded without exposed components, avoiding the hooking of underwater debris and ensuring long-term operation stability.

[0073] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 , the linkage 250 includes L-shaped supports 251 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the detection member 230, and longitudinal sliding grooves 252 and transverse sliding grooves 253 are respectively formed on the L-shaped supports 251. A longitudinal sliding plate 254 is slidably embedded in the longitudinal sliding groove 252, and the longitudinal sliding plate 254 is fixedly connected with the detection member 230. A transverse sliding plate 255 is slidably embedded in the transverse sliding groove 253, and the transverse sliding plate 255 is fixedly connected with the same side isolation plate 241. A connecting rod 256 is hingedly connected between the longitudinal sliding plate 254 and the transverse sliding plate 255.

[0074] Specifically, in the initial state, the longitudinal sliding plate 254 is located at one end of the longitudinal sliding groove 252 close to the first cylinder 220, at which time the two sets of isolation plates 241 are in close contact with each other, and the detection member 230 is retracted into the space between the two sets of L-shaped supports 251. When the first cylinder 220 drives the detection member 230 to approach the underwater pipeline 400 radially, it simultaneously drives the two L-shaped supports 251 and the isolation plates 241 to feed radially until the two sets of isolation plates 241 contact the outer pipe wall of the underwater pipeline 400. At this time, the isolation plates 241 cannot continue to feed radially, but the detection member 230 can continue to feed radially, thereby driving the longitudinal sliding plate 254 to slide longitudinally along the L-shaped support 251. Under the transmission of the connecting rod 256, the corresponding transverse sliding plate 255 is simultaneously driven to slide transversely along the transverse sliding groove 253, thereby causing the two sets of isolation plates 241 to simultaneously move axially away from each other, thereby scraping the sludge on the outer pipe wall of the underwater pipeline 400 and forming an isolation space. At the same time, the detection member 230 continues to feed radially into the isolation space until the detection member 230 contacts the outer pipe wall of the underwater pipeline 400 for strength detection.

[0075] It should be noted that the longitudinal sliding plate 254 and the transverse sliding plate 255 are hingedly connected by the connecting rod 256, which converts the longitudinal feeding motion (radial) of the detection member 230 into the transverse separation motion (axial) of the isolation plates 241, thereby realizing the linkage of detection feeding, sludge scraping, and isolation space formation, and ensuring accurate timing matching of actions;

[0076] When the blade edge 242 of the isolation plate 241 contacts the wall of the underwater pipeline 400 (radial obstruction), the longitudinal sliding plate 254 continuously moves, and through the sliding groove constraint of the L-shaped support 251 and the angle change of the connecting rod 256, the transverse sliding plate 255 is automatically triggered to drive the axial separation of the isolation plate 241.

[0077] The L-shaped support 251 is integrated with the longitudinal sliding groove 252 and the transverse sliding groove 253, the longitudinal sliding plate 254 and the transverse sliding plate 255 are respectively embedded in the corresponding groove bodies, and the motion direction conversion is completed through the single connecting rod 256, so as to avoid the motion interference of the underwater environment.

[0078] In addition, the mounting seat 210 is fixed with a guide rail 258, the L-shaped support 251 is slidingly embedded on the guide rail 258, the longitudinal sliding groove 252 is provided with a guide rod penetrating the longitudinal sliding plate 254, and the guide rod is sleeved with a reset spring 257 abutting against the longitudinal sliding plate 254.

[0079] Specifically, the radial guidance of the L-shaped support 251 by the guide rail 258 can ensure the stability of the overall motion of the L-shaped support 251; in the initial state, due to the elastic force of the reset spring 257, the longitudinal sliding plate 254 can be always located at one end of the longitudinal sliding groove 252 close to the first air cylinder 220; and in the reset stage, the reset spring 257 can also automatically slide the longitudinal sliding plate 254 along the longitudinal sliding groove 252 to reset, so as to synchronously drive the two groups of isolation plates 241 to approach each other during the retraction and reset of the detection piece 230.

[0080] It should be noted that the rigid radial guidance of the L-shaped support 251 by the guide rail 258 eliminates the lateral deviation caused by the flow impact or mechanical load, ensures the vertical and accurate contact of the blade edge 242 of the isolation plate 241 with the outer wall of the underwater pipeline 400, and guarantees the reliability of the mud scraping action.

[0081] The reset spring 257 pushes the longitudinal sliding plate 254 to the initial position through the pre-tightening elastic force, drives the longitudinal sliding plate 254 to automatically reset when the detection piece 230 retracts, and transmits the force through the connecting rod 256 to synchronously pull back the isolation plate 241 to close.

[0084] Then the sealing plate 330 is rotated to switch to completely block each filter screen 321, and then the piston plate 320 is slid along the sliding strip 314 to the side of the first one-way valve 370, at this time, the first one-way valve 370 and the second one-way valve 380 are both normally conducted, that is, the water body in the left chamber can be squeezed into the water pipe 390 through the first one-way valve 370 by the piston plate 320, and then the purified water body enters the flow channel 235 and the water storage cavity 234; at the same time, a negative pressure is generated in the right chamber, so that the external water body can be sucked into the right chamber through the second one-way valve 380, thereby realizing the synchronous extraction of the surrounding water body; in this way, the extraction, purification and extrusion cycle of the water body can be realized.

[0085] It should be noted that by directly extracting the surrounding water body, external water supply is not required, impurities are removed through interception by the filter screen 321, and clean flushing water is output to meet the flushing needs of the detection probe 233.

[0086] In the purification stage, the sealing plate 330 opens the filter screen 321, and the piston plate 320 moves to the right, so that the water body moves to the left through the filter screen 321, and the impurities are intercepted in the right chamber.
