AI Technical Summary
The existing UV-curing headlight chain is too long when retracted, making it difficult to pass through manholes and enter narrow pipes. Furthermore, when unfolded, its center of gravity is low, which is not conducive to uniform radiation.
The headlight chain adopts a scissor-type retractable and fixed design, which increases the length of the lamp feet and the extension stroke, reduces the retraction length, and installs a lamp cover plate on the outside of the screw base to radiate UV light evenly.
It is easy to place into the pipe through the manhole, avoids damaging the pipe opening, ensures uniform UV light radiation, and improves the curing effect.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultraviolet curing machinery and equipment technology, specifically to a scissor-type retractable curing headlight chain. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, some UV-curing headlight chains on the market are quite long in their retracted state. Especially to meet the repair needs of large-diameter pipes, the length of the eight support arms exceeds the length of the base itself when closed, resulting in a very long overall length of the headlight chain when retracted. In the practice of UV-curing pipe repair, the headlight chain needs to be inserted into the underground pipe through existing manholes. Many of these manholes are DN800mm in size. After the headlight chain reaches the bottom of the manhole vertically, it needs to be placed horizontally into the pipe. The narrow space makes the installation of the headlight chain extremely difficult. Sometimes, it is necessary to damage the pipe opening to insert the headlight chain into the pipe. Due to space limitations and the relatively short length of the eight support arms, the center of gravity of the headlight chain is relatively low inside the pipe when fully extended, which is not conducive to uniform radiation.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a scissor-type retractable and curable headlight chain. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems in related technologies, this utility model provides a scissor-type retractable curing headlight chain, which can reduce the size of the curing headlight chain after shrinking and shift the center of gravity of the curing headlight chain upward after unfolding, so that the radiation distance between the eight UV curing lamps and the tube wall is equal, which is conducive to uniform radiation.
[0005] Therefore, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A scissor-type retractable and fixed headlight chain includes a light chain frame, an aviation socket installed at the middle of the right end of the light chain frame, a front camera module installed on the side of the aviation socket, one end of a lead screw body installed at the left end of the aviation socket, the other end of the lead screw body installed at the right end of a rear camera module, and the rear camera module having a built-in drive device for rotating the lead screw body. A lead screw base is installed on the lead screw body, and scissor-type lamp feet are hinged to the outer wall of the lead screw base. A lamp cover plate is installed inside the light chain frame surrounding the lead screw base, and a lamp holder mounting base is installed on the lamp cover plate. A UV lamp holder is installed on the side wall of the lamp holder mounting base. Position sensors for controlling the lead screw base are installed on both the rear camera module and the aviation socket.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this invention, a temperature sensor module is also installed around the socket.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the lampshade plate is provided in four sets, and a total of sixteen lamp holders are installed on the four sets of lampshade plates. A total of sixteen UV lamp holders are installed on the side walls of the sixteen lamp holders. A UV curing lamp is installed between two UV lamp holders, and eight UV curing lamps are provided.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, an LED light module is installed on one side of the rear camera module at the left end of the light chain frame.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this invention, an infrared sensor module is installed on the side of the rear camera module.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the lead screw base is provided in two sets, and a total of eight sets of scissor-type lamp feet are installed on the outer wall of the two sets of lead screw bases.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] This invention, through its scissor-type design, increases the length of the lamp base and the extension stroke of the lamp base, while reducing the overall length of the curing lamp chain when retracted. This facilitates placement into the pipe through the manhole, avoiding damage to parts of the pipe opening. Simultaneously, it shifts the center of gravity upwards when the curing lamp chain is extended, promoting uniform radiation. Furthermore, installing four sets of lamp covers around the screw base, with two UV curing lamps in each set, prevents excessive heat concentration from the eight UV curing lamps and reduces light obstruction by the lamp bases, ensuring uniform radiation and more thorough curing of the UV lining material, thus providing greater assurance for pipe repair projects.

[0024] Workflow: In use, first place the retracted light chain frame 1 into the pipe through the manhole. Then, the drive device built into the rear camera module 5 operates, driving the two lead screw bases 6 to move towards each other to the predetermined position through the lead screw body 4, unfolding the scissor-type lamp feet 7 so that the light chain frame 1 is positioned inside the pipe. During this process, the position sensor 11 operates to detect the position of the lead screw bases 6 in real time. Then, the UV fixing lamp is activated to start the operation. After completion, the drive device operates again, causing the two lead screw bases 6 to move relative to each other to the predetermined position, retracting the scissor-type lamp feet 7. Then, the light chain frame 1 can be removed from the pipe and manhole.
