[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0026] See also Figure 1-5 The utility model provides a technical solution: a gas pipeline network intelligent inspection device, comprising: a track 1, an upper wheel groove 11 is provided on the top of the track 1, and a lower wheel groove 12 is provided in the middle of the track 1; a driving part 2 is placed on the outside of the track 1, and the driving part 2 comprises a support frame 21, an upper driving wheel 23 is rotatably provided on the top of the support frame 21, and the upper driving wheel 23 is rotatably installed in the upper wheel groove 11, and the upper driving wheel 23 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper wheel groove 11, and a lower driving wheel 24 is rotatably provided in the middle of the support frame 21, and the lower driving wheel 24 is rotatably provided in the lower wheel groove 12; a detection box 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 21, and a gas leakage alarm 32 for detecting gas is fixedly connected to the outside of the detection box 3, and a marking part is provided inside the detection box 3 for marking the position of the track 1 at the alarm location.

[0027] It should be noted that, during inspection, according to the preset route, when the track is at the horizontal end, the inclined upward section or the inclined downward section, under the action of the return spring 27, the lower drive wheel 24 is squeezed and fitted with the top of the lower wheel groove 12, and the No. 2 drive motor 29 drives the support frame 21 to move along the track through the lower drive wheel 24. When a lateral turn is required, the lower drive wheel 24 does not rotate, and the No. 1 drive motor 22 rotates inside the upper wheel groove 11 through the upper drive wheel 23, so that the support frame 21 moves along the track 1. During this process, the gas leak alarm 32 detects the surroundings. When gas is detected, the gas leak alarm 32 sounds an alarm and sends a wireless signal transmitter. A signal is sent to notify the surrounding staff to take timely action. The controller 34 controls the micro pump 36 to spray the marking pigment inside the storage barrel 37 to the track 1 through the spray pipe 35, so as to mark the position, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to find. After the maintenance personnel inspect and repair, the remaining pigments will be used to clearly mark the mark. After the marking is completed, the drive unit 2 drives the detection box 3 to continue to inspect forward. Through the wireless signal transmitter, the alarm signal can notify the surrounding staff in real time, so that they can respond quickly and take emergency measures to prevent the situation from deteriorating. Using a micro pump and a storage barrel, the device can spray the marking pigment onto the pipeline or track to mark the position, which is convenient for inspection and maintenance to be carried out at the same time. Such marking makes it convenient for maintenance personnel to quickly find the problem location and improve maintenance efficiency. The drive unit drives the detection box to automatically inspect along the pipeline or track, which reduces the workload of manual inspection and improves efficiency and accuracy.

[0028] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, a No. 1 driving motor 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 21, and the output end of the No. 1 driving motor 22 is fixedly connected to the upper driving wheel 23. A lifting frame 28 is slidably connected to one side of the support frame 21, and a No. 2 driving motor 29 is fixedly connected to one side of the lifting frame 28, and the output end of the No. 2 driving motor 29 is fixedly connected to the lower driving wheel 24. A lifting slot 25 for the lower driving wheel 24 to slide up and down is provided in the middle of the support frame 21, and limiting slots 211 are provided on both sides of the lifting frame 28. The middle of the limiting slot 211 is slidably connected to a limiting column 210, and the limiting column 210 is fixedly connected to the support frame 21. The bottom of the lifting frame 28 is fixedly connected to a limiting slide bar 26, and the limiting slide bar 26 passes through the bottom of the support frame 21. A return spring 27 is sleeved on the outside of the limiting slide bar 26 and located between the lifting frame 28 and the support frame 21.

[0029] It should be noted that, the No. 2 driving motor 29 of the utility model is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 28 by bolts, so that the lifting frame 28, the No. 2 driving motor 29 and the lower driving wheel 24 are integrated, the reset spring 27 pushes the lifting frame 28 upward, and the limiting slide groove 211 is opened on the outside of the limiting column 210 so that the lifting frame 28 can move vertically up and down, thereby making the lower driving wheel 24 move upward, and the lower driving wheel 24 and the lower wheel groove 12 of the track 1 are lifted, and under the action of friction, the lower driving wheel 24 drives the support frame 21 to move along the track 1.

[0030] like Figure 1 , 5 As shown, a controller 34 is provided inside the detection box 3, a battery 31 is fixedly connected inside the detection box 3, a wireless signal transmitter 33 is fixedly connected to the outside of the detection box 3, and the marking part includes a storage barrel 37 fixedly connected to the inside of the detection box 3, a micro water pump 36 is installed on one side of the storage barrel 37, and the output end of the micro water pump 36 is fixedly connected to a spray pipe 35 through a pipeline, and the spray pipe 35 is fixedly connected to the detection box 3.

[0031] It should be noted that the battery 31 of the utility model provides power supply for the internal equipment of the detection box, which is used to ensure that the equipment can still work normally without external power supply, and the wireless signal transmitter 33 is used to send the detected information through wireless signals so that the receiving device or operator can quickly receive alarms or other relevant information. The marking part includes a storage barrel 37, a micro water pump 36 and a spray pipe 35, wherein the storage barrel 37 is used to store pigments or other marking substances for marking, and the micro water pump 36 pumps the substances in the storage barrel 37 into the spray pipe 35, and then sprays them onto the pipeline or track for marking.
