[0036] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments and the accompanying drawings, but the implementation manners of the present utility model are not limited thereto.

The lifting drive mechanism 3 is arranged on the base 72, and a rotating member 2 for adjusting the detection angle of the detection device 1 is provided at the power output end of the lifting drive mechanism 3. One end of the telescopic rod group is connected to the detection device 1, and the other end is connected to the rotating member 2. The detection device 1 includes a detection element, a plurality of crawler wheels 11 and a telescopic rod group. The sliding surfaces of the plurality of crawler wheels 11 protrude from the detection side surface of the detection element and are used for sliding on the top or side surface of the tunnel. One end of the telescopic rod group is connected to the detection device 1, and the other end is connected to the rotating member 2.
[0038] Further, the lifting drive mechanism 3 includes a seat body 34, an outer telescopic arm 32, an inner telescopic arm 31, a pneumatic cylinder 33, a power supply 35 and a control box 36. The outer telescopic arm 32 and the pneumatic cylinder 33 are arranged on the seat body 34, and the seat body 34 is fixed on the base 72. A slider is arranged inside the outer telescopic arm 32, and the inner telescopic arm 31 is embedded inside the outer telescopic arm 32. The rotating member 2 is arranged at the outer end of the inner telescopic arm 31. Specifically, the power supply 35 provides power for the pneumatic cylinder 33. Under the action of the pneumatic cylinder 33, the inner telescopic arm 31 rises and falls in the outer telescopic arm 32, thereby driving the rotating member 2 and the detection device 1 to rise and fall, realizing the height control and adjustment of the detection device 1. The control box 36 is used for controlling the lifting height and switches, etc. In addition, the lifting drive mechanism 3 of this embodiment can also refer to drive mechanisms such as electric cylinders, electric push rods, and motors in the prior art.
[0039] Further, the rotating component 2 includes a support, a rotating connector, and a locking assembly for locking or releasing the rotating connector; the support includes a support plate 24 and two side plates 23, the two side plates 23 are relatively arranged on the support plate 24, and the support plate 24 is fixedly connected to the power output end of the lifting drive mechanism 3, that is, the outer end of the inner telescopic arm 31 of this embodiment. The rotating connector includes a rotating block 22 and a connecting block 21, the rotating block 22 is rotatably connected between the two side plates 23 through a rotating shaft 26, the connecting block 21 is arranged on the rotating block 22, and the telescopic rod group is fixedly connected to the rotating block 22.
[0040] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a lock buckle 25; one end of the rotating shaft 26 extends out of the side plate 23; one end of the lock buckle 25 is provided with two oppositely arranged rotating ears 29, and a fitting gap is formed between the two rotating ears 29; the end of the rotating shaft 26 extending out of the side plate 23 is located in the fitting gap, and the two rotating ears 29 are rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 26 through a rotating pin; the rotating ear 29 and the rotating pin are eccentrically arranged.
[0041] When the rotary connector needs to be locked after being rotated to a specified angle, the lock buckle 25 is moved to allow the eccentric protruding end of the rotating ear 29 to press against the side plate 23, thereby causing the distance between the two side plates 23 to shrink, thereby locking the rotating block 22 of the rotary connector. Figure 6 25 is shown in the state of the lock 25 in the figure. When the rotary connector needs to be loosened, the lock 25 is directly bent downward to make the non-eccentric end of the rotating ear 29 abut against the side plate 23, so that the side plate 23 is not squeezed, thereby achieving the loosening of the rotating block 22, and the rotary connector can be rotated to adjust the angle of the detection device 1. In order to improve the clamping and locking effect of the two side plates 23 on the rotating block 22, a disc or other structural component larger than the circular hole of the side plate 23 can be set at the other end of the rotating shaft 26, so that the clamping effect of the two side plates 23 can be better when the eccentric protruding end of the rotating ear 29 abuts against the side plate 23.
[0042] Furthermore, first tooth plates 27 are provided on opposite sides of the two side plates 23; second tooth plates 28 are provided on corresponding sides of the rotating block 22 and the two side plates 23; and the gear teeth on the first tooth plate 27 and the second tooth plate 28 cooperate with each other.

[0043] Further, the telescopic rod group includes a plurality of telescopic rods 14, and the plurality of telescopic rods 14 are sleeved together in sequence to achieve the telescopic function, and a locking ring structure 15 is provided at the upper end of each sleeve rod.

When the buckle 13 is pressed inward, the buckle 13 will be folded inward by 90°, thus forming a close fit with the detection element inside the sleeve frame 12, so that the detection element cannot move, realizing locking and fixing. The buckle 13 in this embodiment can refer to the prior art. Of course, other buckle structures can also be used to lock and fix the detection element. There are four crawler wheels 11 in this embodiment, two in a group, which are arranged on two opposite side surfaces of the sleeve frame 12.

[0046] The platform frame 4 in this embodiment includes a base frame 41 and a platform 42. The base frame 41 is arranged on the base 72, and the platform 42 is arranged on the base frame 41. The lifting drive mechanism 3 is arranged within the range of the base frame 41 and partially located below the platform 42, and a part of the lifting drive mechanism 3 passes through the platform 42 and is connected to the telescopic rod group.

An avoidance hole is provided on the platform 42 for the inner telescopic arm 31 to pass through.
[0047] Further, a ladder 43 is also arranged on the base 72 of the mobile vehicle 7, which can be used for the detection personnel to climb from the base 72 to the platform 42, so as to manually adjust the angle of the detection element and the length of the telescopic rod group.
[0048] The support frame 6 of this embodiment is arranged on the base 72, and a computer 9 is provided on the support frame 6; a handle 61 is provided on the outer side of the support frame 6.

After being processed and analyzed by the software in the computer 9, the detection situation can be understood in real time. The setting of the handle 61 facilitates the detection personnel to hold, so as to push the device forward. The computer 9 of this embodiment can be a notebook computer, a desktop computer or other devices with functions such as data processing and analysis.
[0049] The working principle of the crack detection device for the top and side surfaces of the water conveyance tunnel in this embodiment is roughly as follows:
[0050] (1) Two control points are arranged at each of the inlet and outlet openings, and accurate absolute geographical coordinate results are obtained by using GNSS static measurement. Then, the mobile vehicle 7 is successively pushed directly above the two control points. The center of the 3D laser scanner on the mobile vehicle 7 is aligned with the control points, and then the coordinate values and the parameter values for data processing are input. The software data center of the computer 9 will perform data processing according to the measured values. A 3D laser scanner should also be provided on the mobile vehicle 7 in this embodiment to achieve the above functions.
[0051] (2) Detecting survey lines for the top and side surfaces are planned and arranged in the tunnel.
[0052] (3) After the detection device of this embodiment enters the tunnel, according to the width of the tunnel, the detection element is extended to a certain length through the telescopic rod group, and the detection device 1 is raised to an appropriate height through the lifting drive mechanism 3 so that it fits the top detection survey line. Then, the mobile vehicle 7 is slowly pushed to detect the cracks on the top.
[0053] (4) Obtain the crack detection data detected by the detection element in the detection device 1 and the 3D point cloud data of the tunnel interior obtained by the lidar device 5.
[0054] (5) The software data center of the computer 9 performs data processing and displays the coordinates of the detection center and the 3D model of the tunnel in real time.
[0055] (6) At this time, the 3D model of the tunnel and the geological structure of the detected tunnel area will be displayed on the display of the computer 9, so as to discover and locate geological conditions such as fissures, cavities, and density.
[0056] (7) After controlling the detection device 1 to rise or fall to an appropriate height through the lifting drive mechanism 3, the rotation component 2 is used to adjust the angle of the detection device 1 so that it rotates to the planned detection line on the side of the tunnel, and the telescopic rod group is combined to make the detection element fit the detection surface; similarly, the mobile vehicle 7 is pushed to perform crack detection on the side.
[0057] (8) After all the detection lines in the tunnel are detected, the device is pushed out of the tunnel entrance and pushed to the other two control points at the tunnel entrance respectively. By inputting the coordinates of the control points, the computer 9 will perform data adjustment according to the closed adjustment theory to obtain a more accurate three-dimensional model of the tunnel and the accurate coordinates of the geological structure.
[0058] The crack detection device for the top and side of the water conveyance tunnel in this embodiment has telescopic and lifting functions. Through the telescopic rod group and the lifting drive mechanism 3, the height and angle can be adjusted to appropriate positions according to the height of the tunnel and the position of the detection line. And under the action of the lifting drive mechanism 3, the detection element is more stable and reliable and not easy to fall down. It can also collect three-dimensional point cloud data through the three-dimensional laser point cloud scanning function, and can measure the coordinates of the radar center in real time. If cracks are found, the coordinates of the cracks can be accurately located. At the same time, the measured radar image and the indoor three-dimensional point cloud data can be combined, the three-dimensional point cloud can be processed into an indoor three-dimensional model, and the radar image can be superimposed to display the size, depth and position of the cracks in the model; the whole model has absolute geographical coordinates, and the computer 9 can input parameters, set data processing algorithm values and display the results.
