[0029] Example
[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a tunnel inspection device, including: a base 1 connected to the top of the tunnel; a wire harness storage mechanism disposed on the base 1, the wire harness storage mechanism including an arc-shaped positioning plate 2 and a storage plate 3, the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 abutting against the storage plate 3, and a storage gap 4 formed between the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 and the storage plate 3; a buffer mechanism disposed between the base 1 and the storage plate 3; and a detection mechanism including a temperature measuring element 20 for obtaining the cable temperature and a warning element 21, the temperature measuring element 20 being disposed on the storage plate 3 and the warning element 21 being disposed on the base 1, and the warning element 21 and the temperature measuring element 20 being electrically connected.
[0031] In this embodiment, the base 1 is tightly connected to the tunnel ceiling, providing stable support for the entire hoisting system and ensuring the stability and safety of the hoisting frame within the tunnel, preventing swaying or collapse caused by external forces. As the connection point between the hoisting frame and the tunnel ceiling, the base 1 not only transmits the weight of the hoisting frame and the suspended wiring harness but also disperses and mitigates vibrations and impacts from the tunnel ceiling to a certain extent.
[0032] In this embodiment, the aforementioned wire harness storage mechanism is used to organize and store electrical wire harnesses within the tunnel, fixing and arranging them orderly on the tunnel ceiling. This avoids the wire harnesses being messy and intertwined, thereby improving the tunnel's neatness and aesthetics. Furthermore, the wire harness storage mechanism is made of sturdy and durable materials, possessing a certain degree of impact and seismic resistance. During tunnel construction or operation, even if vibration or impact occurs, the wire harness storage mechanism can effectively protect the wire harnesses from damage, ensuring their normal operation and service life. Specifically, the aforementioned arc-shaped positioning plate 2 and storage plate 3 cooperate to gather and store the wire harnesses to be stored. In use, the installer uses the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 to lift the wire harnesses to be stored and place them against the storage plate 3, then fixes the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 onto the storage plate 3.
[0033] In this embodiment, the aforementioned buffer mechanism is used to absorb and disperse impact energy from inside or outside the tunnel. When encountering various vibrations, impacts, or wind pressure fluctuations, the buffer mechanism can effectively mitigate the impact of these forces on the wire harness hoisting frame and the wire harness itself.
[0034] In this embodiment, the temperature sensing element 20 is integrated on the storage plate 3 and directly contacts the wiring harness that supplies power to the fan and lighting. It can collect the operating temperature data of the cable in real time, accurately locate the high temperature abnormality point, and transmit the temperature data to the control unit in real time or directly trigger the warning element 21 through the communication connection, forming a closed-loop monitoring system.
[0035] In other embodiments, the communication method of the detection mechanism of the tunnel detection equipment described above can be wired and / or wireless, which facilitates the transmission of real-time data to the terminal device and facilitates data storage and retrieval.
[0036] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In some embodiments of this example, the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 is provided with an anti-derailment rail 5 that is adapted to the storage plate 3, and the anti-derailment rail 5 and the storage plate 3 are connected by bolts 6.
[0037] In this embodiment, the anti-derailment rail 5 is used to laterally push the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 when the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 and the storage plate 3 are at the same height, so that the storage plate 3 is located inside the anti-derailment rail 5, which makes it easier for the installer to hoist the wire harness and improves the convenience of hoisting.
[0038] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In some embodiments of this example, a tightening mechanism is provided inside the arc-shaped positioning plate 2. The tightening mechanism includes an arc-shaped pressure plate 7 and a driving element. The arc-shaped pressure plate 7 is disposed inside the arc-shaped positioning plate 2, and the driving element is disposed on the arc-shaped positioning plate 2. The driving element is used to drive the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 to move closer to or away from the storage plate 3.
[0039] In this embodiment, the tightening mechanism is used to fix and tighten the wire harness, ensuring that the wire harness remains compact and orderly within the storage mechanism. By adjusting the tightening mechanism, wire harnesses of different diameters and numbers can be accommodated, improving the flexibility and applicability of the storage mechanism. Furthermore, the tightening mechanism prevents the wire harnesses from tangling or abrading due to excessive looseness, protecting them from damage.
[0040] Specifically, the aforementioned arc-shaped pressure plate 7 is used to move closer to or further away from the storage plate 3 under the action of the driving element, thereby adjusting the capacity of the storage gap 4, and tightening the wire harness according to usage requirements to improve the stability of the wire harness.
[0041] In use, the aforementioned tightening mechanism is used to gather the wire harness and abut it against the storage plate 3, so that the temperature measuring element can directly contact the cable under test, thereby transmitting the acquired cable status data to the terminal device in real time via wired and / or wireless means.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments of this example, the driving element includes a lead screw 8 and a threaded cylinder 9. The threaded cylinder 9 is disposed on the arc-shaped positioning plate 2, and the lead screw 8 is disposed inside the threaded cylinder 9. The lead screw 8 and the threaded cylinder 9 are threadedly connected, and the lead screw 8 is rotatably disposed on the side of the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 away from the storage plate 3.
[0043] In this embodiment, the lead screw 8 and the threaded cylinder 9 cooperate with each other. The increased length of the lead screw 8 extending into the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 pushes the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 closer to the receiving plate 3, thereby reducing the capacity of the receiving gap. The arc-shaped pressure plate further controls the receiving space, facilitating direct contact between the cable detected by the temperature sensing element and the cable, thereby effectively reducing heat loss caused by heat radiation in the non-contact state and improving the accuracy of data acquisition.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments of this example, the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 is provided with an anti-detachment seat 10, the lead screw 8 passes through the anti-detachment seat 10, and an anti-detachment plate 11 is rotatably provided inside the anti-detachment seat 10, with the lead screw 8 connected to the anti-detachment plate 11.
[0045] In this embodiment, the anti-detachment seat 10 cooperates with the anti-detachment plate 11 to facilitate the reset of the arc-shaped pressure plate 7. By twisting the lead screw 8 in the opposite direction, the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 and the storage plate 3 are driven to separate, thereby loosening the wire harness and facilitating the maintenance of the wire harness.
[0046] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In some embodiments of this example, a grip knob 12 is provided at the end of the lead screw 8 away from the arc-shaped positioning plate 2.
[0047] In this embodiment, the aforementioned grip knob 12 is used for the operator's hand grip, thereby improving the convenience of operating the lead screw 8 and saving time and effort.
[0048] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In some embodiments of this example, the storage plate 3 is provided with a wire-gathering groove 13 on the side near the arc-shaped positioning plate 2.
[0049] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned wire gathering groove 13 is used to centrally gather the wire harness, avoid the wire harness from being scattered, and improve the stability of wire harness storage.
[0050] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In some embodiments of this example, the buffer mechanism includes a lateral adjustment component and a vertical adjustment component. The lateral adjustment component includes a first hinge seat 14 and a first rotating shaft 15. The first hinge seat 14 is disposed on the base 1, and the first rotating shaft 15 is rotatably disposed on the first hinge seat 14. The vertical adjustment component includes a second hinge seat 16 and a second rotating shaft 17. The second hinge seat 16 is disposed on the storage plate 3, and the second rotating shaft 17 is rotatably disposed on the second hinge seat 16. The central axis of the second rotating shaft 17 is perpendicular to the central axis of the first rotating shaft 15. The first rotating shaft 15 and the second rotating shaft 17 are connected by a connector 18. Both the first rotating shaft 15 and the second rotating shaft 17 can rotate freely on the connector 18. A buffer spring 19 is disposed between the connector 18 and the base 1. There are two buffer springs 19, and the first rotating shaft 15 is located between the two buffer springs 19.
[0051] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned lateral adjustment component and vertical adjustment component cooperate with each other to facilitate the mitigation of lateral and longitudinal vibrations. Through the action of the above-mentioned buffer spring 19, when vibration occurs in the tunnel, the buffer springs 19 located on both sides of the first rotating shaft 15 interact with each other, which can effectively reduce the damage to the wiring harness installed in the tunnel.
[0052] In other embodiments, the aforementioned arc-shaped pressure plate 7 and storage plate 3 are covered with a flexible material to further absorb and buffer kinetic energy.
[0053] In use, the base 1 and buffer mechanism of the detection equipment are installed on the planned cable path to fix the cable and to detect the cable status in real time. After the detection equipment is installed, the cable to be installed and the cable to be detected in real time are stored on the arc-shaped pressure plate 7. Then, the anti-derailment 5 is aligned with the storage plate 3, and the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 and the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 are slid to the bottom of the storage plate 3. After positioning, the arc-shaped positioning plate 2 is fixed to the storage plate 3 with bolts. Hold the handle knob 12 and push the arc-shaped pressure plate 7 toward the storage plate 3 to press the cable to be tested. The temperature measuring element can transmit the data to be transmitted to the terminal device through wired or wireless communication.
[0054] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
