Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pipeline defect detection technology, and specifically relates to a pipeline defect detection mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Pipeline inspection robots, also known as CCTV inspection robots, are devices that use machine vision and deep learning algorithms to detect defects on the inner walls of pipelines. The working principle of pipeline inspection robots is to use machine vision technology to acquire images of the inner walls of pipelines, and then use deep learning algorithms to process and analyze the images to determine the internal structure and defects of the pipeline.
[0003] Currently, common pipeline inspection robots mainly consist of a frame, a walking mechanism, a camera assembly, connecting pipelines, and a computing module. In use, they mainly acquire images of the inner wall of the pipeline through the camera assembly, and the camera assembly and the computing module are connected through the connecting pipelines.
[0004] As is well known, in practical applications, pipeline inspection robots move along with the connecting pipelines inside the pipelines to be inspected. However, most pipelines contain impurities such as dust, cobwebs, and sewage. As a result, after the pipeline inspection robot completes the inspection, the outer wall of the connecting pipeline will be affected by these impurities and become dirty. When this happens, it not only affects the cleanliness of the connecting pipeline and the smoothness of its storage, but also makes the connecting pipeline susceptible to corrosion and damage from these impurities. Consequently, the pipeline inspection robot has poor performance and a short service life.
[0005] Therefore, in order to address the aforementioned technical problems, it is necessary to provide a pipeline defect detection mechanism.
[0006] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, a control box 102 is installed on the side of the connecting pipeline 101 away from the detection body 1. The control box 102 is used to limit the assembly of the winding roller 103.
[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, a take-up roller 103 is rotatably mounted inside the control box 102, and the connecting pipeline 101 is wound around the outside of the take-up roller 103. The take-up roller 103 controls the winding of the connecting pipeline 101.
[0034] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the wiping and cleaning assembly 2 is fitted onto the side of the connecting pipeline 101 opposite to the detection body 1. The wiping and cleaning assembly 2 includes a wiping sleeve 201, which is fitted onto the outside of the connecting pipeline 101.
[0035] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the wiping sleeve 201 has multiple liquid guiding channels 204, each corresponding to a wiping block 202. The liquid guiding channels 204 are used to add and deliver wiping liquid from multiple liquid dispensing nozzles 205.
[0036] Specifically, through holes are provided between the multiple liquid guiding channels 204 and the wiping block 202. The through holes serve to connect the liquid guiding channels 204 and the wiping block 202, so that the wiping liquid can be transported into the wiping block 202 along the through holes, thereby facilitating the wiping and cleaning of the connecting pipeline 101 through the wiping block 202.
[0037] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, multiple evenly distributed liquid inlets 205 are fixedly mounted on the outer side of the wiping sleeve 201, and all liquid inlets 205 are connected to the liquid guide channel 204. Wiping liquid is delivered into the liquid guide channel 204 through the liquid inlets 205.
[0038] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, multiple sets of evenly distributed wiping blocks 202 are fixedly assembled inside the wiping sleeve 201. The multiple sets of wiping blocks 202 are used to wipe and clean the dirt adhering to the outside of the connecting pipeline 101.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a pair of connecting seats 206 are fixedly assembled on the side of the wiping sleeve 201 close to the scraper 203. The connecting seats 206 serve to connect the fixed support rod 207 and the wiping sleeve 201, and limit the assembly of the fixed support rod 207 through the connecting seats 206.
[0041] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, each of the pair of connecting seats 206 is hinged with a fixed support rod 207. The fixed support rod 207 serves to connect the connecting seat 206 and the fixed support 208, and supports and positions the scraper 203.
[0042] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a fixed support 208 is hinged to the side of the fixed support rod 207 away from the connecting seat 206, and the fixed support 208 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the scraper 203. The fixed support 208 serves to connect the fixed support rod 207 and the scraper 203.
[0043] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, the drying assembly 3 is fixedly assembled on the side of the wiping sleeve 201 away from the scraper 203. The drying assembly 3 includes a drying sleeve 301, which is fitted onto the outside of the connecting pipeline 101. The drying sleeve 301 is used to assemble and position the drying cotton layer 302.
[0044] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, a drying cotton layer 302 is installed inside the drying sleeve 301, and the inner wall of the drying cotton layer 302 is in contact with the outer surface of the connecting pipeline 101. The connecting pipeline 101 is wiped and dried by the drying cotton layer 302.
[0045] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the drying sleeve 301 has an integrally formed fixed end 303 at one end close to the wiping sleeve 201. The fixed end 303 has external threads on its outer side, and the wiping sleeve 201 has internal threads on its side close to the fixed end 303. The fixed end 303 and the wiping sleeve 201 are assembled by the mutual cooperation of the internal and external threads, which improves the convenience of subsequent disassembly and replacement of the drying sleeve 301.

The guide limit rod 307 serves to support, limit, and guide the sliding movement of the hanging ring 306.
[0049] In practical use, after the detection body 1 completes the inspection of the inner wall of the pipeline, the connecting pipeline 101 is wound up by controlling the rotation of the winding roller 103. During the winding process of the connecting pipeline 101, the fixed support rod 207 is locked and fixed by the connecting seat 206 and the fixed support 208, so that the scraper 203 is attached to the outside of the connecting pipeline 101. Thus, during the winding process of the connecting pipeline 101, the scraper 203 can scrape off the impurities adhering to the outside of the connecting pipeline 101.
[0050] Meanwhile, wiping liquid can be delivered into the liquid channel 204 through the liquid inlet 205. The wiping liquid can wet the wiping block 202 under the action of the through hole, thereby wiping and cleaning the outer surface of the connecting pipeline 101 through the mutual friction between the wiping block 202 and the connecting pipeline 101.
[0051] Subsequently, the connecting pipeline 101 can be dried and cleaned using the drying cotton layer 302. Furthermore, the connecting pipeline 101 can be moved and guided by the hanging ring 306 sliding along the guide limit rod 307. After cleaning, the connecting pipeline 101 can be wound up using the winding roller 103.
[0052] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention.
