The driving part acts on the connecting head to adjust the angle of the microscopic camera.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the improvement are: for cracks at different positions on the bridge or tunnel, the angle of the microscopic camera needs to be adjusted accordingly so that the microscopic camera can fit the crack. The driving part can be a stepping motor or a servo motor arranged on one side of the mounting rack, which can accurately adjust the angle of the microscopic camera. When the power source is running, the connecting head is driven to rotate accordingly, thereby driving the microscopic camera to rotate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the technical scheme of the utility model, the utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings, and the description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not have any limiting effect on the protection scope of the utility model.

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, it is the existing crack detection device of the utility model, and it mainly comprises a microscopic camera 1 for collecting the surface crack image of the measured member and a detector host 3 connected with the microscopic camera 1 through a signal connecting line 2 and used for receiving and processing the video image transmitted by the microscopic camera 1, in use, the microscopic camera 1 is aligned with the crack, the position and focal length of the microscopic camera 1 are adjusted, the user can clearly see the outline and details of the crack, the microscopic camera 1 transmits the collected video image to the host in real time, the host is usually equipped with image processing software and measurement algorithm, can process and measure the image, and the width value of the crack is obtained, the above is the introduction of the existing crack detection device.

[0030] From the above, it can be seen that the existing crack detection device has the following defects when in use, for the cracks located at high places of tunnels and bridges, a stable safety platform needs to be built by the staff or professional climbing equipment needs to be used to approach the crack, it is difficult to flexibly adapt to the crack detection requirements of different heights and angles, not only increases the working difficulty, but also is difficult to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment, based on the above problems, the utility model uses the following improvement mode to solve.

[0031] As Figures 2-6As shown, a bridge and tunnel crack detection device includes a microscope camera 1 for acquiring images of cracks on the surface of the component to be tested, and a detection host 3 connected to the microscope camera 1 via a signal connection line 2 for receiving and processing video images transmitted by the microscope camera 1. An adjustment component 4 is detachably connected to the outside of the microscope camera 1 to assist the microscope camera 1 in acquiring images of cracks at higher elevations on the component to be tested. The main body of the adjustment component 4 is provided with a distance detection component 5 electrically connected to the adjustment component 4. The distance detection component 5 measures the distance between the adjustment component 4 and the crack to be measured. Based on the measurement result, the length of the adjustment component 4 is adjusted accordingly to facilitate the fit between the microscope camera 1 and the crack. The detection host 3 is connected to the microscope camera 1 via the signal connection line 2. A remote shutter controller is installed inside the detection host 3, allowing the user to remotely control the shutter of the microscope camera 1 within a certain range. When measuring cracks at heights, no staff need to climb to operate. This utility model is also equipped with a battery charger, which provides power to the crack width measuring instrument. It adopts charging technology and can store electrical energy in the battery inside the measuring instrument for use when needed. The design of the adjustment component 4 allows the position of the microscope camera 1 to be adjusted according to the actual location of the crack to be measured, especially the high and inaccessible locations. When the distance measuring detection component measures the distance to the crack to be 2 meters, the control unit 8 controls the extension length of the telescopic component 7 to be 2 meters. In addition, the staff has a certain height, which can ensure that the microscope camera 1 can reach the crack, thereby obtaining the clearest and most accurate image information. The integrated distance detection component 5 can measure the distance between the adjustment component 4 and the crack in real time and adjust the length of the adjustment component 4 according to the measurement results, simplifying the operation process, reducing human error, and improving the intelligence level of the detection work.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the adjusting component 4 is further subdivided into a connecting part 6, a telescopic part 7, and a control part 8, which are connected to the microscope camera 1 via the connecting part. The telescopic part 7 is used to adjust the height of the microscope camera 1. The control part 8 is used to control the telescopic length of the telescopic part 7, making the structure of the device clearer and the functions of each part more defined. The control part 8 is a control system, which is electrically connected to the telescopic part 7 and the ranging detection component. The telescopic part 7 can be a DC electric push rod, which is existing technology and is not shown in detail in the figure. It mainly includes a DC motor, a reducer, and a screw. Its working principle is as follows: when the motor starts, the current generates electromagnetic force through the coil, which drives the rotor to rotate. The rotational motion of the rotor is transmitted through the gears and connecting rods in the reducer. After deceleration, it is converted into a slower linear motion. The decelerated linear motion drives the screw to rotate. The nut on the screw moves axially in the guide tube. The movement of the nut drives the push rod to perform linear reciprocating motion. The setting of the telescopic part 7 allows the height of the microscope camera 1 to be flexibly adjusted, further enhancing the detection capability of the detection device for cracks of different heights.

[0033] Furthermore, such asFigure 2 As shown, the connecting part 6 is a U-shaped mounting rack 9 with a size larger than the micro camera 1, the connecting head 10 is fixedly arranged at the part of the mounting rack 9 aligned with the micro camera 1, and the inner side of the mounting rack 9 is provided with a driving part 11. For cracks at different positions on the bridge or tunnel, the angle of the micro camera 1 needs to be adjusted accordingly, so that the micro camera 1 can be in close contact with the crack. The driving part 11 can be a stepping motor or a servo motor arranged on one side of the mounting rack 9, which can accurately adjust the angle of the micro camera 1. When the power source is running, the connecting head 10 is driven to rotate accordingly, thereby driving the micro camera 1 to rotate. Meanwhile, a fixed shaft 15 is fixedly arranged on the output shaft of the driving part 11 and on the mounting rack 9 away from the driving part 11. The connecting head 10 can be a semicircular arc plate, and the opening of the connecting head 10 faces downward. The connecting head 10 is clamped on the fixed shaft 15, and then the connecting head 10 is connected with the fixed shaft 15 by using the bolt 14. Thus, the angle adjustment of the micro camera 1 can be realized, and the limiting camera can be detachably connected with the adjusting part 4 at the same time, which is convenient for measuring the width of the crack at the low part of the tunnel or bridge.

[0034] Further, as shown in Figure 2 As shown in Figure 6 The side wall of the control part 8 is provided with a mounting seat with a pin shaft 16, the pin shaft 16 penetrates through the flap 12 and is fixedly connected with the mounting seat. The surface of the pin shaft 16 has friction protrusions or textures, and is tightly fitted with the flap 12. When no external force is applied to the flap 12, the flap 12 can maintain a fixed angle with the control part 8. When the distance detection part 5 needs to be used, the flap 12 is flipped to the side away from the control part 8, so that the distance detection part is parallel to the measured member. The distance detection part can be an infrared range finder. The principle of different reflection intensities of infrared signals when encountering obstacles is used for distance measurement. When the infrared range finder is used, the flap 12 is flipped to be parallel to the control part 8, so that the flap 12 and the side wall of the control part 8 form a containing cavity that can accommodate the distance detection part, avoiding damage caused by exposure of the distance detection part. The side wall of the control part 8 is provided with a slot 13 corresponding to the flap 12, and both the slot 13 and the flap 12 are provided with magnetic attraction pieces. When the flap 12 is flipped to be attached to the control part 8, the magnetic attraction pieces in the slot 13 are magnetically connected, thereby further increasing the firmness of the flap 12 and the control part 8, so as to prevent the flap 12 from being flipped out and exposing the distance detection part during carrying.
