[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.

[0030] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0032] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides an acoustic thermal imaging detection device, which includes a main body 1, a thermal imager 2, an acoustic imager 3, and a control panel. The main body 1 provides a supporting structure for the whole, facilitating the installation of other components on the main body 1. The thermal imager 2 is located on one side of the main body 1, and can detect and analyze the infrared radiation emitted by the object being inspected to determine the temperature distribution of the object. The acoustic imager 3 is located on the other side of the main body 1, and can emit and receive sound waves from the object being inspected, detect the sound waves, and analyze the internal structural information of the object. The thermal imager 2 and / or the acoustic imager 3 are rotatably connected to the main body 1. The thermal imager 2 needs to be equipped with a camera to receive infrared radiation, and the acoustic imager 3 needs to be equipped with an acoustic wave probe to emit sound wave signals. Since the defects and abnormal hot spots within the object being inspected are not necessarily located in the same position, rotating the acoustic imager 3 and / or the thermal imager 2 helps to complete their respective detection work simultaneously. The control panel includes a control component 4 and a display component 5. The control component 4 is communicatively connected to the thermal imager 2, the acoustic imager 3, and the display component 5, respectively. The display component 5 is used to display the detection results of the thermal imager 2 and the acoustic imager 3. Specifically, the control component 4 includes a power switch and adjustment buttons. Pressing the power switch controls the thermal imager 2, the acoustic imager 3, and the display component 5 to power on or off, while the adjustment buttons adjust the working status of each part of the thermal imaging detection device. The display component 5 includes a display screen, through which the operator can visually observe the acoustic and thermal images acquired by the acoustic-thermal imaging detection device.

[0034] Therefore, the above-mentioned acoustic thermal imaging detection device allows operators to complete both thermal and acoustic image detection of the object under test using a single device; and by setting a rotation function, the acoustic imager 3 and the thermal imager 2 can complete their respective detection work simultaneously. Furthermore, by setting a control panel, operators can directly observe the test results to evaluate the object under test, which is more convenient and faster, reduces the operation process, and lowers time costs.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the thermal imager 2 and / or the acoustic imager 3 are connected to the main body 1 via a damped rotation shaft 6. When the thermal imager 2 and / or the acoustic imager 3 rotate, damped rotation is achieved through the damped rotation shaft 6. The operator can manually rotate the thermal imager 2 and / or the acoustic imager 3 by a certain angle. Because the damped rotation shaft 6 itself has resistance, the thermal imager 2 and / or the acoustic imager 3 can maintain the angle formed between itself and the main body 1 even after the operator releases their grip, and will not change its position due to its own weight or other slight disturbances, thus affecting the detection process.

[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the damping rotating shaft 6 includes an inner rotating shaft 61 and an outer rotating wall 62. The outer rotating wall 62 is sleeved outside the inner rotating shaft 61 and rotatably connected to it. One of the inner rotating shaft 61 and the outer rotating wall 62 is provided with an elastic telescopic member, and the other is provided with multiple grooves that cooperate with the elastic telescopic member. It can be understood that one of the inner rotating shaft 61 and the outer rotating wall 62 is connected to the main body 1, and the other is connected to the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual device 3. When the inner rotating shaft 61 and the outer rotating wall 62 rotate relative to each other, the main body 1 and the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual device 3 rotate relative to each other. When the elastic telescopic member in the damping rotating shaft 6 extends elastically and its end enters the groove, the rotation of the damping rotating shaft 6 is hindered, thus providing a certain positioning effect for the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual device 3. Under the action of external force, the elastic telescopic member retracts elastically and its end leaves the groove, allowing the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual device 3 to rotate freely.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the elastic telescopic member is disposed on the inner rotating shaft 61 and arranged radially along the inner rotating shaft 61, while a groove is formed in the outer rotating wall 62. It is understood that the elastic telescopic member requires a certain radial space, and the inner rotating shaft 61 typically requires a certain diameter to ensure the structural strength of the rotating structure. Placing the elastic telescopic member on the inner rotating shaft 61 fully utilizes the radial space of the inner rotating shaft 61, avoiding the need to thicken the outer rotating wall 62 if the elastic telescopic member were placed there. In addition, the radial arrangement of the elastic telescopic member minimizes its required length, reducing material consumption and production costs.

[0038] In some other embodiments, the elastic telescopic member may be disposed in the rotating outer wall 62, with both ends protruding from the rotating outer wall 62. The operator can operate the telescopic movement of the elastic telescopic member from the outside to fix or release the rotating inner shaft 61 relative to the rotating outer wall 62.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the elastic telescopic member is a ball-head plunger 63 with an elastic element, and the groove is an arc-shaped groove. The elastic element is located at the end of the ball-head plunger 63 away from the arc-shaped groove, and the ball head of the ball-head plunger 63 can elastically extend into the arc-shaped groove. When the operator applies torque to the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual imager 3, the ball head abuts against the side wall of the arc-shaped groove, thereby causing the arc-shaped groove to provide elastic force to the ball head toward the axis of the damping rotation shaft 6. The elastic element is compressed, and the ball head then leaves the arc-shaped groove, causing the inner rotating shaft 61 to be released from relative fixation with the outer rotating wall 62 and to rotate relative to each other. Every time the rotation reaches a certain angle, the ball head will extend into the arc-shaped groove under the elastic force of the elastic element. If the operator does not continue to apply force, the inner rotating shaft 61 and the outer rotating wall 62 can be relatively fixed.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, multiple ball-head plungers 63 are provided, symmetrically arranged about the center of the rotation axis, and multiple arc-shaped grooves are evenly spaced on the outer wall 62 of the rotation axis. Further still, four ball-head plungers 63 are evenly spaced within the inner shaft 61 of the rotation axis, with the ball heads of the multiple ball-head plungers 63 simultaneously entering or exiting the arc-shaped grooves. The evenly arranged ball-head plungers 63 make the circumferential force on the inner shaft 61 more uniform, resulting in greater stability during rotation. Simultaneously, the multiple arc-shaped grooves ensure that the ball-head plungers 63 can enter the arc-shaped grooves for limiting their movement at certain rotation angles. It is understood that the more arc-shaped grooves there are, the more precise the control of the rotation angle of the damping rotation shaft 6 will be. The specific number of arc-shaped grooves can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs; this embodiment does not limit this. Furthermore, alignment scale lines can be set on the main body 1 and on the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual device 3. The interval between adjacent alignment scale lines is the same as the interval between adjacent arc grooves. The operator can observe the position of the alignment scale lines from the outside to realize the graded rotation of the thermal imager 2 and / or the audio-visual device 3.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, a power supply component is provided inside the main body 1, which is electrically connected to the thermal imager 2, the acoustic imager 3, and the control panel. The thermal imager 2, the acoustic imager 3, and the control panel all require power. Providing a power supply component inside the main body 1 allows the acoustic thermal imaging detection device to be freed from the space limitations of external power lines and power strips, enabling operators to hold the device at a suitable location for thermal and acoustic image detection and analysis.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, the acoustic thermal imaging detection device further includes a protective cover 7 for protecting the thermal imager 2. The camera of the thermal imager 2 has a lens; if the lens is exposed, it is easily scratched by hard objects, affecting the detection effect of the thermal imager 2. Furthermore, the protective cover 7 is located at the lens and is rotatably connected to the thermal imager 2. When the thermal imager 2 needs to be used, the operator can rotate to open the protective cover 7; after use, the protective cover 7 can be rotated to close it. In some other embodiments, the protective cover 7 can also be slidably or magnetically connected to the thermal imager 2 to cover the lens; this embodiment does not limit this.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the main body 1 is provided with a fixing strap. The operator can fix the acoustic thermal imaging detection device to the waist, neck, or wrist via the fixing strap, making the acoustic thermal imaging detection device easy to carry and realizing the portability of the device.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the main body 1 is provided with a handle. The handle can be located at the bottom of the acoustic-thermal imaging detection device, and the handle is cylindrical in shape. The operator can hold the handle while activating the acoustic imager 3 and the thermal imager 2 for detection, which is convenient, time-saving, and labor-saving. In some other embodiments, the handle can also be located on both sides of the main body 1, forming a ring with the main body 1, making it easy for a person to reach in and hold it.

[0045] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
