[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 A portable drainage pipe inspection robot includes: a mounting bracket 1, an adjustment component 4, and an inspection component 5;

[0030] Support rods 2 are mounted around the surface of mounting bracket 1, and a protective cover plate 3 is connected between the surface of mounting bracket 1 and the adjacent support rods 2.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3The adjustment assembly 4 includes an adjustment slider 41 symmetrically slidably mounted on the surface of the support rod 2. A spring 42 is sleeved on the surface of the support rod 2. One end of the adjustment slider 41 is in contact with the spring 42. A connecting rod 43 is hinged to the top of the adjustment slider 41. Movable arms 44 are symmetrically hinged to both ends of the mounting bracket 1. The middle part of the movable arm 44 is hinged to one end of the connecting rod 43. A roller 45 is rotatably mounted on one end of the movable arm 44.

[0032] In practical use: An adjusting slider 41 is installed on the surface of the support rod 2. One end of the adjusting slider 41 is in contact with the spring 42 on the surface of the support rod 2. A connecting rod 43 is hinged to the top of the adjusting slider 41. Movable arms 44 are symmetrically hinged at both ends of the mounting bracket 1. One end of the connecting rod 43 is hinged to the middle of the movable arm 44. A roller 45 is rotatably installed at one end of the movable arm 44. When the robot is placed inside the drainage pipe, the spring 42 pushes the adjusting slider 41 to drive the roller 45 to the maximum open state. According to the diameter of the drainage pipe, the adjusting slider 41 slides on the surface of the support rod 2. The adjusting slider 41 drives the movable arm 44 to retract through the connecting rod 43, so that the roller 45 fits against the inner wall of the drainage pipe. Under the action of the spring 42, the roller 45 fits tightly against the pipe arm, ensuring stable robot movement. This makes it suitable for the inspection of drainage pipes of different diameters and reduces the cost of use.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 4 The detection component 5 includes a fixed base 51 fixedly installed inside the mounting bracket 1, a fixed clamping block 52 installed at the front end of the fixed base 51, a detection probe 53 installed inside the fixed clamping block 52, and a lighting lamp group 54 installed at the bottom front end of the fixed base 51.

[0034] In practical use: A mounting bracket 51 is installed on the inner side of the mounting bracket 1, and a fixing block 52 is installed at the front end of the mounting bracket 51. The detection probe 53 is fixed inside the fixing block 52, and the pipe is detected by the detection probe 53. The lighting group 54 installed at the bottom front end of the mounting bracket 51 can illuminate the inside of the drainage pipe, making it convenient for the detection probe 53 to obtain the image inside the pipe.

[0035] Please see Figure 3 A support plate 6 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting bracket 1 at the bottom of the support rod 2. A limit groove 7 is opened on the surface of the support plate 6, and the bottom of the adjusting slider 41 slides inside the limit groove 7.

[0036] In practical use: A support plate 6 is installed on the inner side of the mounting bracket 1 at the bottom of the support rod 2. A limit groove 7 is opened on the surface of the support plate 6. When the adjusting slider 41 slides along the support rod 2, the bottom slides in the limit groove 7, so that the adjusting slider 41 keeps sliding stably.

[0037] Please seeFigure 2 Both ends of the mounting bracket 1 are equipped with sealing plates 8, and a transparent cover 9 is installed on the surface of one end of the sealing plate 8, which covers the surface of the detection probe 53.

[0038] In practical use: sealing plates 8 are installed at both ends of the mounting bracket 1. A transparent cover 9 is installed on the surface of one of the sealing plates 8. The transparent cover 9 covers the surface of the detection probe 53, so as to protect it and prevent water stains and sludge inside the drainage pipe from adhering to the detection probe 53 and affecting the detection.

[0039] Please see Figure 3 The mounting bracket 1 has hinge seats 10 fixedly installed at both ends. The surface of the hinge seat 10 is threaded with a locking screw 11. The other end of the movable arm 44 is fixed inside the hinge seat 10 by the locking screw 11.

[0040] In practical use: The mounting bracket 1 has hinge seats 10 fixedly installed at both ends. The surface of the hinge seats 10 is threaded with locking screws 11. When the movable arm 44 is pushed to drive the roller 45 to approach the surface of the mounting bracket 1 for storage after use, the movable arm 44 is kept in a fixed state by tightening the locking screws 11 to prevent the roller 45 from unfolding and occupying space, thus making it easy to carry.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 The two symmetrical rollers 45 are installed in an alternating manner.

[0042] In practical use: two symmetrical rollers 45 are installed in an alternating manner. Multiple rollers 45 are installed around the mounting bracket 1. The alternating installation of two corresponding rollers 45 increases the contact points with the inner wall of the drainage pipe, ensuring the stability of the robot's movement.

[0043] Please see Figure 2 The mounting bracket 1 also houses a power module 12.

[0044] In practical use: The power module 12 installed inside the mounting bracket 1 provides power support for the movement and testing of the equipment.

[0045] When the robot is placed inside the drainage pipe, the spring 42 pushes the adjusting slider 41 to drive the roller 45 to its maximum open state. According to the diameter of the drainage pipe, the adjusting slider 41 slides on the surface of the support rod 2. The adjusting slider 41 drives the movable arm 44 to retract through the connecting rod 43, so that the roller 45 fits against the inner wall of the drainage pipe. Under the action of the spring 42, the roller 45 fits tightly against the pipe arm, ensuring the robot walks stably. This makes it suitable for the inspection of drainage pipes of different diameters and reduces the cost of use.
