Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of detection probe technology, specifically a three-in-one multifunctional rotating probe. Background Technology

[0002] Today, information technology is applied to various disciplines. The foundation of modern information technology includes information acquisition, information transmission, and information processing. Information acquisition is inseparable from sensors, which are at the forefront of information acquisition systems, preceding detection and control. All kinds of information to be acquired in scientific research and automated production processes must be obtained through sensors and converted into signals. When inspecting vehicles or other equipment, probes are needed to inspect the bottom of the equipment. However, in actual use, similar inspection probes still have many shortcomings. For example, the probes of current machines or robots for undercarriage inspection and bottom surface inspection are relatively simple, only providing images. Often, a single inspection requires multiple requirements, and the common practice is to use different probes to achieve this, which is not perfect. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a three-in-one multifunctional rotating probe to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a three-in-one multi-functional rotating probe, including a base plate, a left side plate fixed to one side of the upper end of the base plate, a right side plate fixedly installed on the other side of the upper end of the base plate, an electronic control module fixedly installed in the middle of the upper end of the base plate, a rotating drive servo motor fixedly installed on the upper end of the electronic control module, and several sets of base plate holes opened on both sides of the base plate.

[0005] By integrating a visible light camera, a thermal imaging camera module, and a laser ranging module into a single three-in-one multi-functional rotating probe, the probe achieves real-time detection of images, thermal images, and distance while maintaining a small size. When the integrated box needs to rotate, a rotary drive servo is controlled to rotate the drive wheel, which in turn drives the driven wheel, causing the entire integrated box to rotate between the left and right side plates, thus enabling the probe to rotate.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a side plate groove is provided inside the right side plate, and one side of the rotary drive servo motor passes through the right side plate and is connected to the drive wheel; by providing the rotary drive servo motor, power can be provided for the rotation of the probe.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving wheel is rotatably mounted on one side of the side plate groove, and a driven wheel is rotatably mounted on the other side of the side plate groove. A synchronous belt is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the driven wheel and the driving wheel.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a tension bearing is fixedly installed above the center of the side plate groove, and the outer wall of the tension bearing is in contact with the outer side of the synchronous belt. By providing a tension bearing, the slack of the synchronous belt can be ensured, so that the synchronous belt is in contact with the driving wheel and the driven wheel and will not slip off.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, an integrated box is rotatably installed between the left side plate and the right side plate, and a rotating shaft is fixedly installed at both ends of the integrated box. One set of the rotating shafts passes through the right side plate and is fixedly connected to the driven wheel. By providing the rotating shaft and fixing the rotating shaft to the driven wheel, the driven wheel can drive the rotating shaft to rotate after it rotates.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a thermal imaging camera module is fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the integrated box, and a laser ranging module is fixedly installed on one side of the thermal imaging camera module on the upper end of the integrated box.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a probe base is fixedly installed at the center of one end of the integrated box, a visible light camera is fixedly installed at the center of the upper end of the probe base, and an LED light source board is fixedly installed around the visible light camera at the upper end of the probe base.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. By integrating a visible light camera, a thermal imaging camera module, and a laser ranging module into a three-in-one multi-functional rotating probe, the probe can simultaneously detect images, thermal images, and distances in real time while maintaining a small size. When the integrated box needs to rotate, a rotation drive servo is controlled to drive the drive wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the driven wheel to rotate, thus allowing the integrated box to rotate between the left and right side plates, achieving the function of rotating the probe.

[0014] 2. By setting up a rotary drive servo, the rotary drive servo can drive the drive wheel to rotate. When the drive wheel rotates, it can drive the driven wheel to rotate, thereby making the entire integrated box rotate between the left and right side plates, realizing the function of probe rotation.
