Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of pipeline inspection periscopes, and specifically relates to a pipeline inspection periscope. Background Technology
[0002] The construction of municipal pipelines has also developed like never before, with urban pipeline networks covering every corner of the city. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain urban pipeline networks. The preliminary work for pipeline maintenance mainly uses pipeline periscopes to collect and play back images of the inside of the pipeline, as well as measure the current position of the image. This can quickly detect and diagnose defects such as blockages, collapses, and ruptures inside the pipeline, making it easier to treat the problem. At the same time, pipeline periscopes can also be used for pipeline completion acceptance and re-testing after repairs.
[0003] However, existing pipeline inspection periscopes consist of three parts: a telescopic rod, an imaging module, and a monitoring module. During use, the telescopic rod is manually driven to extend the imaging and monitoring modules into the interior of the pipeline.

[0028] Example 1:
[0029] The periscope body includes a support 2 with a telescopic rod 3 inside. The telescopic rod 3 has an adjusting rod 4 at one end connected by a connector. The other end of the adjusting rod 4 is connected to the side of the detection mechanism. The telescopic rod 3 moves by extending and retracting, while the adjusting rod 4 swings. The swinging of the adjusting rod 4 has a structure that drives the detection module 5 to move forward and backward, which facilitates the forward and backward movement of the detection module 5 and the photography module 8, and helps to improve the detection range of the periscope body.
[0030] The testing mechanism includes a testing module 5, a base 50, and a slide 6. The testing module 5 is located on the top of the base 50. A camera module 8 is provided on one side of the testing module 5. The camera module 8 is a through-type structure and is a protruding structure, which facilitates the disassembly and installation of the camera module 8.
[0031] The base 50 is located in the middle of the slide 6. The slide 6 is provided with multiple arms, which are arranged in the shape of spider legs. One end of each arm is provided with a pulley 60, and the arm and pulley 60 are arranged in a 360° rotating configuration.

[0032] The support 2 has a positioning ring 20 on one side and a limiting ring 21 on the other side. The bottom of the positioning ring 20 has a bracket 200. One side of the bracket 200 has a protruding support rod 210. The support rod 210 is connected to the support leg 211 by a connector. The support leg 211 forms a rotatable structure. The rotatable end of the support leg 211 can form a limiting structure with the limiting ring 21, which helps the support 2 to form a four-corner support structure. However, the support leg 211 forms a blocking structure with the limiting ring 21 through rotation, which helps the support 2 to form a four-corner support structure.
[0033] The other end of the telescopic rod 3 is provided with a handle 30. The telescopic rod 3 and the support 2 are connected by a thread. The telescopic rod 3 is driven by the handle 30 to form a telescopic movement. The adjusting rod 4 is oscillating due to the telescopic movement of the telescopic rod 3.
[0034] Preferably, the connecting member is a structure consisting of a shaft hole or a shaft rod, which helps to form a rotatable structure for the connection between the telescopic rod 3 and the adjusting rod 4, the connection between the adjusting rod 4 and the detection mechanism, and the connection between the support rod 210 and the support leg 211.
[0035] The top surface of the base 50 is provided with a positioning block 500, and a protective cover 501 is provided on one side of the positioning block 500. The protective cover 501 has a hollow hole inside, and the camera module 8 is installed inside the protective cover 501, thereby improving the protection of the camera module 8.
[0036] Preferably, the positioning block 500 has a protruding structure and a symmetrical structure. The detection module 5 is inserted between the symmetrical parts of the positioning block 500. This improves the stability of the detection module 5 and the base 50 and helps the detection module 5 to form a pushing structure through the swinging movement of the adjusting rod 4.
