AI Technical Summary
The existing robotic carts can only move along the inner wall of the drainage pipe near the bottom. Once silt accumulates on the inner wall near the bottom of the drainage pipe, the robotic carts are unable to continue moving and cannot thoroughly inspect the inside of the pipe.
A defect detection device for drainage pipes was designed, which employs a support component and an adjustment component. The support component enables the robot trolley to be lifted and removed from the silt through an auxiliary drive wheel and a meshing toothed structure. The adjustment component adjusts the height and angle of the imaging component through multiple rotating brackets and motors to achieve all-round detection.
The robotic vehicle can perform thorough inspections of pipe sections with a lot of silt or that are impassable. It can move in drainage pipes of different diameters and take pictures from high places, thus achieving a detailed and thorough inspection of drainage pipes.
