[0017] The present invention is further described below through specific implementation methods.
[0018] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a dam crack detection and repair robot includes a frame body 1, a walking mechanism 2, a crack detection mechanism 3, and a repair mechanism 4;
[0019] The frame body 1 is arranged on a frame of the walking mechanism 2, and the crack detection mechanism 3 and the repair mechanism 4 are arranged on the frame body 1;
[0020] The walking mechanism 2 includes a driving device 21, a transmission shaft 23, and a driving wheel 22. The driving device 21 is connected to the driving wheel 22. The driving wheel 22 transmits power to the transmission shaft 23. The driving wheel 22 drives the frame body 1 to move forward, backward, and turn.
[0021] The crack detection mechanism 3 is arranged on the frame body 1, and includes a control and calculation module 31, a camera module 32, a three-dimensional laser scanning module 33, and a lighting module 34. The camera module 32 is arranged on the frame body 1, and captures the image of the dam road surface that has been walked, and sends the captured signal to the control and calculation module 31. When the camera module 32 captures the cracks of the disease, the three-dimensional laser scanning module 33 starts scanning to scan the cracks of the disease of the dam, obtain three-dimensional information such as the depth, width and length of the disease, and send the scanning information to the control and calculation module 31. The lighting module 34 is arranged on the frame body 1, and is used to provide light source for the camera module 32 and the three-dimensional laser scanning module 33;
[0022] The repair mechanism 4 includes a material storage box 41, a grouting pipe 42, and a solenoid valve 43. The material storage box 41 is arranged on the frame body 1 for storing repair materials for repairing dam diseases, such as asphalt, concrete slurry, etc. A stirring shaft 411 is provided in the material storage box 41 to stir the stored repair materials. The liquid discharge mechanism is composed of a grouting pipe 42 and a solenoid valve 43. The grouting pipe 42 is arranged at the bottom of the frame body 1, one end of the grouting pipe 42 is connected to the material storage box 41, and the other end extends out of the material storage box 41, which is used to lead out the repair material from the material storage box 41. The solenoid valve 43 is arranged on the grouting pipe 42, and the solenoid valve 43 is connected to the control calculation module 31 signal, and the solenoid valve 43 controls the opening and closing of the grouting pipe 42.
[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the workflow of the above-mentioned dam crack detection and repair robot is as follows:
[0024] The dam crack detection and repair robot moves along a set track under the drive of the walking mechanism 2, and the stirring shaft 411 in the material storage box 41 keeps stirring to prevent the repair material from solidifying;
[0025] When the frame body 1 moves, the camera module 32 of the crack detection mechanism 3 is turned on, and the camera module 32 identifies the surface of the dam. When a crack of a disease is identified on the surface of the dam, a signal is sent to the control and calculation module 31. The control and calculation module 31 drives the three-dimensional laser scanning module 33 to turn on, and scans and measures the length, width and depth of the diseased crack. After the measurement, a detection data signal is sent to the control and calculation module 31. When the three-dimensional data of the crack reaches a set threshold, it is determined that the diseased crack needs to be repaired. The control and calculation module 31 compares the three-dimensional data of the crack with the time in the database, calculates the time when the electromagnetic valve 43 needs to be opened, and sends a control signal to the repair mechanism 4;
[0026] The material storage box 41 stores materials for repairing dam defects, such as asphalt, concrete slurry, etc. When the solenoid valve 43 obtains the control signal sent by the control calculation module 31, the solenoid valve 43 opens, and the repair material in the material storage box 41 is discharged along the grouting pipe 42 to fill the cracks and complete the repair work.
[0027] The dam crack detection and repair robot provided by the utility model can be used for daily maintenance of the dam and realize automatic detection. Through recognition by the camera module 32 and scanning by the three-dimensional laser scanning module 33, the recognition accuracy is high, and the cracks of the disease can be quickly found, and unmanned automatic measurement can be realized and misjudgment can be effectively avoided. The cracks can be repaired by the repair mechanism 4. The repair accuracy of the repair mechanism 4 is controlled and calculated according to the control calculation module 31, and the accuracy is high, which greatly improves the labor efficiency, can realize the automation of dam crack detection, and is convenient for daily maintenance of the dam.
