[0029] The following will be combined with the attached Figures 1 to 6 , the technical scheme, structural features, objectives achieved and effects in the embodiments of the utility model are described in detail.
[0030] It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions. They are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the implementation methods of the utility model, and are not used to limit the conditions for the implementation of the utility model. Therefore, they have no substantive technical significance.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0032] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the utility model provides an underground pipeline detection device, which can be applied to harsh road environments, can be operated by electric drive equipment, and can remotely control the equipment to perform detection operations. The underground pipeline detection device includes: a vehicle body 100, which is used as the carrier of the entire underground pipeline detection device, and can achieve specific effects by setting different functional devices on it; a detection device 200, which is fixed above the vehicle body 100 near the middle position, as the core component of the underground pipeline detection device, can detect pipelines of different buried depths to clarify the depth and position of the underground pipeline; a display device 300, which is arranged above the vehicle body 100 and on one side of the detection device 200, and is connected to the detection device 200 in communication. When performing detection operations, the information detected by the detection device 200 can be transmitted to the display device 300 for display, so as to realize the reading and viewing of information; a power device 400, which is distributed on the left and right sides of the vehicle body 100, is used to drive the vehicle body 100 to operate in the road environment. In addition, the underground pipeline detection device can also be connected to an external remote control device 500 to achieve remote intelligent control.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, a square groove 101 is provided in the middle of the top of the vehicle body 100, in which a detection device 200 is installed; a power storage device (not shown in the figure) is provided in the box on the left side of the vehicle body 100, which can be charged.
[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the detection device 200 comprises: a telescopic structure 202, specifically four telescopic shafts 206 (such as Figure 2As shown, they are telescopic shaft 1, telescopic shaft 2, telescopic shaft 3, and telescopic shaft 4, respectively. These four telescopic shafts 206 are telescopic parts with exactly the same size and structure, and are symmetrically distributed in space. The lower end of each telescopic shaft 206 is fixedly installed in the square groove 101 on the top of the vehicle body 100 to provide stable support and have a telescopic function; the mounting plate 205 is located above the four telescopic shafts 206 and is connected to the upper end of each telescopic shaft 206 through a mounting hole opened thereon; the transmission shaft 204, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the center of the mounting plate 205; the motor 201 is installed on the mounting plate 205 and connected to the top of the transmission shaft 204, as the entire detection device 200 The driving center can generate thrust / pull through the forward / reverse rotation of the motor 201, and transmit the thrust / pull to the mounting plate 205 through the transmission shaft 204. Since the mounting plate 205 is connected to the vehicle body 100 through four telescopic shafts 206, the mounting plate will move up and down under the drive of the motor 201, and at the same time, the four telescopic shafts 206 will synchronously extend and retract with the up and down movement of the mounting plate 205; the detection head 203 is installed on the lower bottom surface of the mounting plate 205, that is, the side away from the motor 201, and is driven to move up and down by the up and down movement of the mounting plate 205, thereby adjusting the height of the detection head 203 to achieve the best detection effect at a suitable detection position.
[0036] Preferably, the four telescopic shafts 206 can be located at the midpoints of the four sides of the square slot 101, so that the four corners of the square slot reserved can facilitate the disassembly or maintenance of the detection device 200. Since the entire device itself is a small detection device with a small space, using the midpoints of the four sides of the square slot 101 as the installation points is the most feasible arrangement.
[0037] The outer contour of the mounting plate 205 can be circular, rhombus, regular polygon or other geometrically symmetrical figures, as long as the square groove 101 can accommodate it, because these shapes are convenient for finding geometrically symmetrical points, and can facilitate the installation and arrangement of the telescopic shaft 206, and achieve stable installation. In the above preferred embodiment, four symmetrically arranged telescopic shafts 206 are used, but in other embodiments, other different numbers of telescopic shafts 206 can also be symmetrically arranged.
[0038] In addition, the mounting plate 205 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes matching the inner diameters of the plurality of telescopic shafts 206 . The mounting holes are symmetrically distributed and correspondingly connected to the upper ends of the respective telescopic shafts 206 .
[0039] Preferably, the material of the mounting plate 205 needs to be hard and can provide a certain support force to avoid bending or other deformation after being subjected to a certain pressure, thereby affecting the detection effect. Therefore, the mounting plate 205 can be made of metal material or plastic material.
[0040] The telescopic shaft 206 is a multi-section telescopic structure in the prior art, which has a telescopic function and can be extended / contracted with the up and down movement of the mounting plate 205, so that the detection head 203 fixed on the mounting plate 205 can adjust the detection height according to actual needs. Specifically, when the telescopic shaft 206 is subjected to an upward force from the mounting plate 205, it will expand section by section along the direction of the force to increase its length, so that the detection head 203 rises and extends out of the square slot 101; or, when the telescopic shaft 206 is subjected to a downward force from the mounting plate 205, it will contract its length, so that the detection head 203 descends and enters the inside of the square slot 101.
[0041] The detection head 203 is located at the center of the bottom surface of the mounting plate 205, and it is necessary to ensure that the lens is not blocked after installation. In addition, the up and down movement of the detection head 203 is achieved by the motor 201 driving the up and down movement of the mounting plate 205; this arrangement enables the detection head 203 to adjust the detection position at any time to strengthen the reception of the signal when the signal is weakened due to changes in the underground environment or the influence of other surrounding substances during actual operation, thereby achieving the purpose of more effective detection.
[0042] Preferably, the initial height position of the detection head 203 of the underground pipeline detection device is preset, which is suitable for detecting shallow (3-5m) pipelines. For a depth of about 3-5m, the device can directly detect, and for deeper pipelines, the height of the detection head 203 needs to be adjusted until a stable signal is obtained.
[0043] like Figure 3a and Figure 3b As shown, the display device 300 includes: a support plate 305, which serves as the back plate of the display device 300; a display screen 301, which is arranged on the support plate 305 and is communicatively connected to the detection head 203, and is used to receive the detection image acquired by the detection head 203, and allows the operator to read the detection result; a functional area 304, which is arranged on the support plate 305 and is located below the display screen 301, and an external interface 303 (such as a type-c interface / USB interface) and a power switch (not shown in the figure) are arranged in this area, which can be externally connected to electronic terminal devices such as mobile phones or computers, so as to facilitate remote viewing of detection results in other devices; a bracket 302, which is fixedly connected to the back side of the support plate 305, that is, the side opposite to the display screen 301, the functional area 304, etc., and is fixedly connected to the vehicle body 100, and also plays a role in supporting the display device 300.
[0044] The functional area 304 also has a controller component (not shown) for receiving signals, which can be connected to the remote control device 500 .
[0045] like Figure 2As shown, the power device 400 is a double-sided structure, which is respectively arranged on both sides of the vehicle body 100. Therefore, this embodiment includes two sets of power devices 400.
[0046] Among them, Figure 6 As shown, each group of the power device 400 includes: a driving wheel 401, which is installed on the vehicle body 100 and connected to a driving device arranged on the vehicle body 100; a driven wheel 402, which is installed on the vehicle body 100 and is arranged on a side opposite to the driving wheel 401; a road wheel 403, which is installed on the vehicle body 100 and is arranged below the driving wheel 401 and the driven wheel 402, as a mechanism for bearing gravity; a track 404, which is meshed with the gear structure of the driving wheel 401 and is wound around the periphery of the driving wheel 401, the driven wheel 402 and the road wheel 403, and the driving wheel 401 is driven by the driving device to rotate, so that the track 404 meshed with it rotates together, thereby driving the driven wheel 401 and the road wheel 403 to rotate, thereby realizing the forward / reverse movement of the vehicle body 100; a shock-absorbing spring 405, one end of which is arranged on a crossbar connected to the center of the road wheel 403, and the other end is connected to the vehicle body, for reducing the vibration of the vehicle body.
[0047] There may be multiple road wheels 403 ; in this embodiment, three road wheels 403 are preferably provided.
[0048] Among them, the use of the crawler 404 can realize the stable operation of the underground pipeline detection device in different road conditions, including gravel roads, muddy roads, and even small gentle slopes.
[0049] Among them, Figure 5 As shown, the underground pipeline detection device is also provided with a remote control device 500, and the remote control device 500 is respectively communicated with the motor 201 of the detection device 200 and the driving device of the power device 400, and can remotely control the motor 201 to control the height adjustment of the detection head 203, and remotely control the driving device to control the power device 400 to drive the vehicle body 100 forward / backward on the road surface.
[0050] The specific operation process is as follows:
[0051] Step 1, before using the underground pipeline detection device, the operator can adjust and set it through the remote control device 500, for example, for pipelines with different buried depths, the height of the detection head 203 can be adjusted through the remote control motor 201;
[0052] Step 2, after setting the height of the detection head 203, the operator can remotely control the forward and backward movement of the underground pipeline detection device through the remote control device 500;
[0053] Step 3, through the external interface 303, a mobile phone or a computer can be connected to view the direction, depth and other parameter information of the detected underground pipeline in real time;
[0054] Step 4, after the detection is completed, the underground pipeline detection device is controlled by the remote control device 500 to return and stop running.
[0055] For example, to detect pipelines under a 50-meter-long road, the length of the road that needs to be detected is clear. The underground pipeline detection device performs the detection task of the specified length according to the instructions. When the target distance is reached, the operation is considered completed.
[0056] Specifically, whether the detection task is completed or not depends on the detection result of each operation. In the absence of an external mobile phone or computer, the result of a detection operation can be viewed on the display screen 301 of the underground pipeline detection device. According to the detection result, it is judged whether to end the detection task. In particular, when the operator is not next to the underground pipeline detection device, the detection status can be viewed in real time on the mobile phone or computer through an external display device, so as to make judgments and decisions, and problems arising during the detection process can also be detected and analyzed in a timely manner.
[0057] In addition, the remote control device 500 also has two modes, one is a manual mode, that is, the forward and backward movement of the equipment is controlled by the remote control device 500; the other is an automatic mode, that is, the travel distance is set by the remote control device 500, and the underground pipeline detection device can operate automatically.
[0058] To sum up, the underground pipeline detection device provided by the utility model can be applied to a variety of complex terrains, and can even climb over a small gentle slope of 1 meter high, which greatly reduces the cost of engineering excavation operations; and the electric endurance drive replaces manual push and pull, thereby improving the efficiency of detection; in addition, the remote control equipment is used to improve the intelligent control level of the underground pipeline detection device.
