Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of industrial endoscopes, in particular to a two-dimensional rotating pan-tilt endoscope device. Background Art

[0002] The two-dimensional rotating pan-tilt endoscope is an industrial endoscope, which is a tool for assisting visual inspection. When direct vision is not possible due to structural or environmental factors, the imaging and image transmission technology is used to enable the inspector to obtain almost the same observation effect as direct vision through the eyepiece or display, that is, to make the originally invisible area visible. Industrial endoscopes can be used for inspection and observation of places with high temperature, toxicity, nuclear radiation and places that cannot be directly observed by the human eye, such as the inspection of automobiles, aircraft engines, pipelines, mechanical parts and other equipment. Non-destructive testing can be achieved without disassembly or destruction of assembly and equipment stopping operation.
