Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline detection technology, and in particular to a portable underground pipeline detector. Background Technology

[0002] Pipeline detection refers to the process of detecting the direction, burial depth, and corrosion damage of underground pipelines without excavation, using tools such as underground pipeline detectors. Pipeline detectors have built-in induction coils that receive the magnetic field signals from the pipelines and calculate the pipeline's direction and path using the induced current generated by the coils.

[0003] The underground pipeline detector consists of a transmitter and a receiver. However, no matching locking structure is installed between the transmitter and the receiver, which means that the transmitter and receiver must be placed separately when carrying them. This makes it very easy for the transmitter and receiver to be lost. Furthermore, if the transmitter and receiver are placed directly in a large storage box, it is very inconvenient to carry them. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies that lack a suitable locking structure between the transmitter and receiver, which forces the transmitter and receiver to be placed separately during transport, making it easy for them to be lost. Therefore, this invention proposes a portable underground pipeline detector.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A portable underground pipeline detector includes a transmitter and a receiver mounted on the back of the transmitter. The bottom of the transmitter is fixed with a mounting base plate, and L-shaped brackets are fixed on both sides of the back of the transmitter, with the receiver snapped into the L-shaped brackets. The L-shaped brackets and the transmitter are provided with locking components that cooperate with the receiver.

[0007] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a blocking plate rotatably mounted on an L-shaped bracket with its bottom abutting against the receiver; a locking bracket is inserted into each set of the blocking plates with its front bottom abutting against the L-shaped bracket; a T-shaped rod is inserted into each set of the locking brackets with its bottom end fixed to the blocking plate; a spring is wound around each set of the T-shaped rods with both ends fixed to the protruding end of the T-shaped rod and the blocking plate; and an F-shaped clip is fixed to the left side of the transmitter for engaging with the connecting post on the receiver.

[0008] Preferably, a shielding frame for covering the display on the receiver is slidably disposed on the left side of the transmitter, a shielding bracket is slidably disposed on the front of the transmitter, and an auxiliary placement frame is slidably disposed on the right side of the transmitter.

[0009] Preferably, the front and back sides of the transmitter and the two sides of the front of the transmitter are provided with snap-fit ​​slides, and the front and back sides of the shielding frame and the auxiliary placement frame that are close to each other and the two sides of the back of the shielding frame are fixed with snap-fit ​​strips that cooperate with the snap-fit ​​slides.

[0010] Preferably, one side of the top of the L-shaped bracket has a socket for insertion into the locking bracket.

[0011] Preferably, the shielding frame has an overall L-shaped structure.

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

[0013] This portable underground pipeline detector features a locking mechanism. An L-shaped bracket allows for pre-positioning of the receiver, and the spring's elasticity, combined with the locking insert's insertion limit, restricts the position of the blocking plate. This, along with the self-locking mechanism, limits the receiver's top position, preventing it from moving up or down and detaching from the L-shaped bracket. Furthermore, the F-shaped clip allows for quick and easy attachment of the receiver to the transmitter, enabling them to be quickly assembled into a single unit when needed. This design not only facilitates carrying but also prevents loss, significantly improving portability. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Example

[0021] Reference Figures 1-3 A portable underground pipeline detector includes a transmitter 1 and a receiver 3 mounted on the back of the transmitter 1. A mounting base 2 is fixed to the bottom of the transmitter 1. A shielding frame 11, which covers the display on the receiver 3, is slidably mounted on the left side of the transmitter 1. A shielding bracket 12, which has an L-shaped structure, is slidably mounted on the front of the transmitter 1, improving the protection of the transmitter 1 and preventing damage. An auxiliary placement frame 13 is slidably mounted on the right side of the transmitter 1. By using the shielding frame 11 and the shielding bracket 12, the display on the receiver 3 and the display screen on the transmitter 1 can be protected from damage. Damage caused by external forces and the design of the detachable auxiliary placement frame 13 facilitates the placement of some simple tools or connecting wires, improving the overall functionality of the equipment. Both sides of the back of the transmitter 1 are fixed with L-shaped brackets 4 and the receiver 3 is snapped into the L-shaped brackets 4. The front and back sides of both sides of the transmitter 1 and the two sides of the front of the transmitter 1 are provided with snap-fit ​​slides 14. The front and back sides of the shielding frame 11 and the auxiliary placement frame 13 that are close to each other and the two sides of the back of the shielding frame 12 are fixed with snap-fit ​​strips 15 that cooperate with the snap-fit ​​slides 14. The design of the snap-fit ​​slides 14 and the snap-fit ​​strips 15 allows for quick assembly of the shielding frame 11, the auxiliary placement frame 13 and the shielding frame 12.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-4 The L-shaped bracket 4 and transmitter 1 are equipped with locking components for use with receiver 3. The locking components include a baffle plate 6 rotatably mounted on the L-shaped bracket 4, with the bottom of the baffle plate 6 abutting the receiver 3. Each set of baffle plates 6 has a locking bracket 7 inserted into it, with the bottom of the front of the locking bracket 7 abutting the L-shaped bracket 4. Each set of locking brackets 7 has a T-shaped rod 8 inserted into it, with the bottom end of the T-shaped rod 8 fixed to the baffle plate 6. Each set of T-shaped rods 8 has a spring 9 wound around it, with both ends of the spring 9 fixed to the protruding end of the T-shaped rod 8 and the baffle plate 6. A connecting post on the left side of the transmitter 1 is fixed for engagement with the receiver 3. The F-type card holder 5, by setting a locking component, can limit the top position of the receiver 3 by using the blocking plate 6 with the self-locking structure. In conjunction with the insertion and positioning of the F-type card holder 5, the receiver 3 can be quickly fixed to the transmitter 1, so that the two can be quickly assembled into a whole structure when needed. This not only makes it easy to carry, but also prevents loss and improves portability. The top side of the L-type bracket 4 has a socket 10 for insertion with the locking bracket 7. The design of the socket 10 allows for insertion and positioning when the locking bracket 7 is reset, so as not to affect the normal separation of the receiver 3 and the transmitter 1.

[0023] In this invention, the user pre-attaches the receiver 3 to the L-shaped bracket 4, and the display on the receiver 3 contacts the side of the transmitter 1. At the same time, the connecting post on the receiver 3 is attached to the F-shaped bracket 5. When the user pulls the locking bracket 7 upward, the spring 9 is stretched synchronously until the locking bracket 7 separates from the socket 10, releasing the locking state of the blocking plate 6. The user then rotates the blocking plate 6 until it is rotated from the horizontal to the vertical and moved to the top of the receiver 3. At this time, the elastic rebound of the spring 9 drives the locking bracket 7 to move down and reset, and attach to the back of the L-shaped bracket 4. This quickly limits the position of the blocking plate 6, thereby quickly positioning the receiver 3 so that it can be quickly fixed to the transmitter 1. When it is needed for carrying, the two can be quickly assembled into a whole structure, which is not only convenient to carry, but also avoids loss.

[0024] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
