Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of industrial equipment maintenance, in particular to a point inspection operation intelligent pen. BACKGROUND

[0002] Point inspection operation is a basic and important work in industrial equipment maintenance, safety production management and daily inspection, and its core task is to regularly, fixedly and standardly inspect, test and record data of specific points of equipment, facilities or environment. The traditional point inspection method mainly relies on manual detection using simple tools (such as flashlights, sound sticks, temperature meters, etc.), and records the results manually through paper forms or handheld terminals. This method has great room for improvement in operation standardization, data accuracy and operation efficiency.

[0003] With the development of technology, some electronic point inspection tools have appeared in the market. For example, digital point inspection instruments integrating single sensors, intelligent notebooks capable of storing a small amount of detection data, and portable detection devices recording information through external storage cards. These tools realize electronic storage of detection data to some extent, avoiding errors caused by complete reliance on manual paper and pen recording. Some tools also attempt to physically integrate detection probes and recording devices to form integrated handheld point inspection devices.

[0004] However, the existing point inspection tools still have obvious limitations. Firstly, the functions are relatively single, and a device usually only targets one or a few detection items. When multiple detection points of different natures need to be operated, multiple special tools still need to be carried and frequently replaced, and the process is cumbersome. Secondly, the data storage and management method is not flexible enough, and most devices use fixed internal storage or single storage cards, making it difficult to realize physical isolation and quick switching of data of different detection items or different batches of tasks, and there is a risk of data confusion. Thirdly, the replacement of detection probes often needs to be manually operated, which is not convenient, and the overall design of the device does not fully consider how to efficiently and reliably realize the collaborative switching and integrated management of "detection tools" and "data carriers" in continuous, multi-point and multi-item operation scenarios. SUMMARY

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of the present application is to provide a point inspection operation intelligent pen to solve the technical problems of tool dispersion, inconvenient data management and cumbersome operation process in traditional point inspection operation.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present application provides the following technical scheme: A point inspection operation intelligent pen, comprising: a pen-shaped main body, an inside of which is provided with a rotatable mounting shaft, a plurality of mounting stations for accommodating a plurality of data storage sticks are arranged on the mounting shaft; a holding part arranged on the outside of the pen-shaped main body for a user to hold; a driving mechanism arranged in the pen-shaped main body for driving the mounting shaft to rotate to switch a target data storage stick to an access station; a multifunctional detection head movably arranged at the bottom of the pen-shaped main body, comprising a rotatable bottom turntable and a plurality of replaceable measuring rods mounted thereon; and a control device for controlling the driving mechanism and the multifunctional detection head to realize switching of the data storage stick and replacement of the measuring rod.

[0007] The present application is further provided that the mounting station is a mounting groove arranged circumferentially along the mounting shaft.

[0008] The present application is further provided that the driving mechanism comprises a control motor and a rotating shaft, and the control motor is in transmission connection with the mounting shaft through the rotating shaft.

[0009] The present application is further provided that the control device comprises a top turntable, a mounting plate and the bottom turntable connected with the mounting shaft, and the top turntable and the bottom turntable are in rotational connection with the mounting plate.

[0010] The present application is further provided that an opening corresponding to the access station is arranged on the top turntable.

[0011] The present application is further provided that the multifunctional detection head is connected with the bottom turntable through a connecting piece, and the connecting piece is provided with a mounting port for mounting the measuring rod at the bottom.

[0012] The present application is further provided that the holding part comprises a first handle arranged on one side of the pen-shaped main body and a second handle arranged on the other side.

[0013] The present application is further provided that the pen-shaped main body is further provided with an upper cover plate arranged at the top of the pen-shaped main body, and the upper cover plate is provided with a connecting head in electrical connection with the data storage stick. In summary, the present application mainly has the following beneficial effects: This invention achieves physical isolation and one-click quick switching of data from different testing items by setting a rotatable mounting shaft and multiple independent data storage rod mounting stations, effectively avoiding data confusion. By integrating a rotatable and replaceable multi-functional testing head and various measuring rods, a single device can flexibly adapt to multiple testing tasks, significantly improving work efficiency.

[0016] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0017] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described.

[0018] A smart pen for inspection operations, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the intelligent pen for inspection mainly includes a pen-shaped body 1, a grip, a drive mechanism, a control device 6, and a multi-functional detection head.

[0019] The pen-shaped body 1 is substantially long-cylindrical, and has an installation shaft 17 arranged axially inside. The installation shaft 17 is rotatably supported on the inner wall of the pen-shaped body 1 by bearings (not shown in the figure) at both ends thereof. A plurality of installation grooves 9 are uniformly arranged on the outer cylindrical surface of the installation shaft 17 in the circumferential direction. Each installation groove 9 constitutes an independent installation station for detachably placing a data storage stick. The data storage stick can be an independent storage module with a specific storage capacity and interface, for storing point inspection data in sub-projects or batches. The top of the pen-shaped body 1 is fixed with an upper cover plate 3 by screwing or snap fitting. The top center of the upper cover plate 3 is provided with a connector 4, and the internal circuit (not shown in the figure) thereof is connected with the main control circuit inside the pen-shaped body 1. When a data storage stick is rotated to the top access station along with the installation shaft 17, the interface of the data storage stick is just connected with the connector 4, so as to realize data communication with external equipment (such as a computer or a server).

[0020] The holding part is used for the user to hold, and includes a first handle 2 arranged on one side (for example, the right side) of the pen-shaped body 1, and a second handle 5 arranged on the other side (for example, the left side) of the pen-shaped body 1. The first handle 2 and the second handle 5 are symmetrically arranged relative to the central axis of the pen-shaped body 1, and jointly constitute an ergonomic holding area. Preferably, the surfaces of the first handle 2 and the second handle 5 can be molded with anti-slip lines or coated with an anti-slip rubber layer, so as to enhance the stability and comfort of holding, and prevent slipping during the point inspection operation.

[0021] The driving mechanism is arranged at the inner bottom end of the pen-shaped body 1. Specifically, a control motor 13 is fixedly arranged at the inner bottom of the pen-shaped body 1. The output shaft of the control motor 13 is vertically upward, and is coaxially fixedly connected with the lower end of a rotating shaft 10 by a shaft coupling or directly. The upper end of the rotating shaft 10 is drivingly connected with the lower end of the installation shaft 17 by a key connection or a spline connection. Therefore, when the control motor 13 receives a rotation instruction, the rotating shaft 10 can accurately drive the installation shaft 17 and the plurality of data storage sticks carried thereon to rotate together, so as to switch the target data storage stick to the top access station (corresponding to the connector 4) or to perform rotation.

[0022] The control device 6 is the core control and execution component of the smart pen, which is arranged on the outside of the bottom of the pen-shaped body 1 and partially accommodated in the cavity at the lower end of the pen-shaped body 1. The control device 6 mainly includes a top rotary disc 12, a mounting plate 14 and a bottom rotary disc 15 arranged coaxially in sequence from top to bottom. The mounting plate 14 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the pen-shaped body 1 by screws or buckles. The top rotary disc 12 is fixedly connected (for example, by a set screw) with the lower end of the mounting shaft 17 through the central hole thereof, so as to rotate together with the mounting shaft 17. The central shafts of the top rotary disc 12 and the bottom rotary disc 15 are rotationally connected with the mounting plate 14 through bearings, so that they can rotate relative to the mounting plate 14 independently. An opening 11 is formed on the disc surface of the top rotary disc 12 adjacent to the edge thereof. The opening 11 is positioned in the upper and lower correspondence with the mounting groove 9 at the access station on the mounting shaft 17 in the pen-shaped body 1. Through the opening 11, the data storage stick can be observed or manually assisted to be taken out or put in.

[0023] The multifunctional detection head is movably arranged below the control device 6, which is used to perform specific physical detection (such as temperature measurement, vibration measurement, thickness measurement, etc.). Specifically, a plurality of connecting pieces 7 are fixedly connected or welded to the lower surface of the bottom rotary disc 15 by threads. The connecting pieces 7 are uniformly distributed along the circumference of the bottom rotary disc 15. An installation port 16 is formed at the bottom of each connecting piece 7. The installation port 16 is in the form of an internal threaded hole, a clamping groove or a quick-connection interface, etc. A plurality of measuring rods 8 (such as temperature probes, vibration sensors, ultrasonic probes, etc.) of different functions or specifications have connecting parts at the top thereof, which are matched with the installation ports 16, so as to be detachably and one-to-one installed in the installation ports 16 of the connecting pieces 7. By driving the bottom rotary disc 15 to rotate, the required measuring rod 8 can be switched to the working position.

[0024] The working principle of this invention is as follows: Before starting the inspection operation, the user inserts a data storage stick containing the corresponding project data template or program into different mounting slots 9 according to the task requirements, and installs the measuring rods 8 with different functions onto each connector 7. Holding the first grip 2 and the second grip 5, the user moves the smart pen to the point to be measured. A command is sent through the control device 6 (which may integrate control buttons or communicate with a wireless terminal), first controlling the motor 13 to work, driving the mounting shaft 17 to rotate, rotating the data storage stick corresponding to the current inspection item to the top, making it connect with the connector 4, ready to record data. Subsequently, the bottom turntable 15 is controlled to rotate, rotating the measuring rod 8 suitable for the current inspection item (e.g., a temperature probe) to the working position. The measuring rod 8 is used to contact the inspection point for measurement, and the data is transmitted through the internal circuit to the data storage stick at the top for storage. After completing the inspection at one point, if it is necessary to switch to another inspection item, the control device 6 sends a command to control the motor 13 to drive the mounting shaft 17 to rotate, switching to the next data storage rod; at the same time, the bottom turntable 15 is rotated to replace the corresponding measuring rod 8 (such as a vibration sensor), and the next inspection can be performed. The entire process does not require changing external equipment, realizing intelligent, rapid, and coordinated switching between data carriers and inspection tools, which greatly improves the efficiency and reliability of inspection operations.
