Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of buried pipeline detection devices, and in particular to a portable buried pipeline detection probe structure. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, underground pipeline networks are becoming increasingly complex. Efficiently and accurately monitoring these various buried pipelines has become a major technical challenge. Currently, commonly used underground pipeline inspection methods include non-contact inspection technologies such as ground radar detection and electromagnetic wave transmission, as well as contact inspection technologies such as video endoscopes and sonar detectors.

[0003] Traditionally, the inspection of buried pipelines usually relies on ground radar detection and electromagnetic wave transmission methods. These two methods have the advantage of not requiring damage to the ground. However, due to the influence of factors such as soil type and humidity, the accuracy of their detection results is difficult to guarantee. In addition, although contact detection technology based on video endoscopes and sonar detectors can obtain more intuitive and detailed internal images of the pipeline, its operating efficiency is low, the cost is high, and it is difficult to effectively enter deeply buried or severely curved pipelines. Therefore, improvements are now being made to the structure of portable buried pipeline detection probes. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present application provides a portable buried pipeline detection probe structure, which overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and aims to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present application provides the following technical solutions: a portable buried pipeline detection probe structure, comprising a detection probe body and a line-releasing handle, the detection probe body consisting of a base and an outer shell, a movable wheel fixedly installed on the bottom of the base, a rotating chassis fixedly installed at the center of the upper surface of the base, a high-definition camera fixedly installed on the top of the rotating chassis, a rotating window penetrated through the upper surface of the outer shell, the high-definition camera is located inside the rotating window, a battery and a control module are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base at the rear side of the rotating chassis, and an ultrasonic flaw detector is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base at the front side of the rotating chassis.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, by arranging movable wheels on the base, the detection probe body can move freely in the buried pipeline. By rotating the chassis, the high-definition camera is driven to rotate 360 ​​degrees freely to shoot the situation inside the buried pipeline, which makes it convenient for the inspection personnel to control the movement of the detection probe body and observe the situation inside the buried pipeline. The ultrasonic flaw detector analyzes the echo reflection characteristics of the pipeline wall to identify internal cracks or other structural damage. The battery provides power for the detection probe body, and the control module processes the acquired data and sends it to the ground control system. The device has a simple structure and is easy to carry, and can enter the interior of the pipeline for direct inspection, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the inspection results.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the rear end of the base is fixedly connected to a connecting ring, the outer wall of the line-releasing handle is wrapped with a nylon rope, and the base is wrapped with a nylon rope through the connecting ring.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the base and the line-releasing handle are connected together through the cooperation between the nylon rope and the connecting ring, which facilitates the subsequent recovery of the detection probe body.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor drives the rotating disk to rotate, thereby driving the high-definition camera to rotate 360 ​​degrees freely. The bottom of the rotating disk fits into the top of the fixed cylinder, so that most of the gravity of the rotating disk and the high-definition camera is borne by the fixed cylinder, which helps the motor to rotate.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, probe lights are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base on both the left and right sides of the ultrasonic flaw detector.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the internal space of the buried pipeline is illuminated by the probe light, which is convenient for high-definition camera shooting.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the inner diameter of the moving wheel close to the base is larger than the outer diameter of the wheel, and the walking surface of the moving wheel is provided with anti-skid grooves.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the contact area between the running surface of the moving wheel and the inner wall of the pipe is made larger, thereby increasing its grip and preventing the vehicle from overturning.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the left and right outer walls of the base are fixedly connected to mounting frames, and the bottom of the mounting frames are fixedly installed with anti-fall wheels.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the cooperation between the mounting frame and the anti-fall wheels provides balance support for the detection probe body, which can effectively prevent the detection probe body from tipping over when turning and climbing.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the front end of the base is fixedly connected to a buffer block, and the buffer block is made of rubber material.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the buffer block can effectively absorb the impact caused by the collision, thereby protecting the vehicle body.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] 1. In the present invention, by arranging movable wheels on the base, the detection probe body can move freely in the buried pipeline. By rotating the chassis, the high-definition camera is driven to rotate 360 ​​degrees freely to capture the situation inside the buried pipeline, making it convenient for the inspection personnel to control the movement of the detection probe body and observe the situation inside the buried pipeline. The ultrasonic flaw detector analyzes the echo reflection characteristics of the pipeline wall to identify internal cracks or other structural damage. The battery provides power for the detection probe body, and the control module processes the acquired data and sends it to the ground control system. The device has a simple structure and is easy to carry. It can enter the interior of the pipeline for direct inspection, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the inspection results.

[0021] 2. In the present invention, the cooperation between the mounting frame and the anti-fall wheels provides balance support for the detection probe body, which can effectively prevent the detection probe body from tipping over when turning and climbing. The base and the line-releasing handle are connected together by nylon rope and connecting ring, which facilitates the subsequent recovery of the detection probe body.
