[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] As Figure 1-6 shown, this embodiment provides a deep water detector, which mainly includes a vision sensor module 1 and a light source module 2. The lens module 1 is used to capture the liquid phase condition in deep water, and the light source module 2 is used to provide light for the capture. The light source module 2 is arranged on the opposite side of the vision sensor module 1 and is arranged in parallel with the vision sensor module 1.

[0034] The vision sensor module 1 includes a first housing 11, and the first housing 11 is made of waterproof and explosion-proof material. The first housing 11 is divided into upper and lower parts. The circuit board 12 is fixed on the upper part of the first housing 11, and the vision sensor 13 is fixed on the lower part of the first housing 11. The vision sensor 13 is electrically connected to the circuit board 12. The circuit board 12 is fixed inside the housing by copper studs, and the vision sensor 13 is fixed inside the housing by screws to ensure the stability of the internal components of the detector during the sinking process.

[0035] The light source module 2 includes a second housing 21. The height of the second housing 21 is the same as the height of the lower part of the first housing 11. A lamp board 22 is fixed inside the second housing 22. The lamp board 22 is electrically connected to the circuit board 12. The lamp board 22 is fixed inside the second housing 21 by screws, and the lamp board 22 is arranged opposite to the vision sensor 13.

[0036] A gap is provided between the first housing 11 and the second housing 21. The detector detects the liquid phase condition inside the gap. The first housing 11 and the second housing 21 are connected by a connecting column 3, and the length of the connecting column 3 determines the width of the gap. During use, the lamp panel 22 on one side irradiates the liquid inside the gap to provide a light source for the visual sensor 13 to take pictures.

[0037] On the side of the first housing 11 close to the second housing 21, a first through hole 14 is opened, and a first lens 15 is installed at the first through hole 14. On the side of the second housing 21 close to the first housing 11, a second through hole 23 is opened, and a second lens 24 is installed at the second through hole 23. The cross section of the first lens 15 is convex-shaped. The first lens 15 is clamped in the first through hole 14, and the convex edge of the first lens 15 fits against the inner edge of the first through hole 14 to ensure waterproofness. The cross section of the second lens 24 is convex-shaped. The second lens 24 is clamped in the second through hole 23, and the convex edge of the second lens 24 fits against the inner edge of the second through hole 23 to ensure waterproofness. Of course, a waterproof rubber strip will be used to seal the connection between the first lens 15 and the first housing 11, and a waterproof rubber strip will also be used to seal the connection between the second lens 24 and the second housing 21.

[0038] Embodiment 2

[0039] This embodiment is formed on the basis of Embodiment 1. By further setting the structures of the first housing 11 and the second housing 21, the waterproofness of the detector is improved. Specifically:

[0040] The inside of the connecting column 3 is hollow, and the transmission line between the lamp panel 22 and the circuit board 12 passes through the connecting column 3 to connect the lamp panel 22 and the circuit board 12. The connecting column 3 serves as a connecting member between the first housing 11 and the second housing 21, and at the same time can also serve as a wire trough, avoiding the transmission line passing through the outside of the first housing 11 and the second housing 21, reducing unnecessary openings, and improving the waterproof performance of the detector.

[0041] On the side of the first housing 11 away from the second housing 21, a first back plate 16 is provided. On the side of the first housing 11 close to the first back plate 16, a waterproof groove 4 is opened, and a waterproof strip is provided in the waterproof groove 4. On the side of the second housing 21 away from the first housing 11, a second back plate 25 is provided. On the side of the second housing 21 close to the second back plate 25, a waterproof groove 4 is opened, and a waterproof strip is provided in the waterproof groove 4.

[0042] The settings of the first back plate 16 and the second back plate 25 facilitate the disassembly and detection of the detector. During installation, first install the waterproof strip into the waterproof groove 4, then cover the first back plate 16 and the second back plate 25, and tighten them with screws, improving the waterproof performance of the detector while ensuring convenient use.

[0043] In this embodiment, an interface 5 for connecting an IP68 connector is provided at the top of the first housing 11. The transmission line of the underwater detector is connected to the water surface control end through the IP68 connector, which facilitates the electrical connection and signal transmission of the detector and further improves the waterproof performance of the detector.

[0044] In this embodiment, the bottoms of the first housing 11 and the second housing 21 are arc-shaped, which reduces the liquid resistance during the sinking process of the detector and improves the stability of the deep-water detector when it enters the water.
