DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the utility model. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the utility model, and cannot be understood as limiting the utility model.

[0027] A road and bridge crack inspection unmanned plane, like Figures 1-4As shown, it includes a main body 1 and a functional mechanism 7. The functional mechanism 7 includes a fixed box 701. The fixed box 701 has an installation groove 702 inside. An air pump 710 and a liquid storage tank 706 are installed in the installation groove 702. A main air pipe 703 is installed on the top of the air pump 710. A first nozzle 704 is fixedly connected to one end of the main air pipe 703. A branch air pipe 705 is installed on one side of the main air pipe 703. A second nozzle 707 is fixedly connected to one end of the branch air pipe 705.

[0028] A pigment tube 708 is installed on the top of the liquid storage tank 706. One end of the pigment tube 708 is fixedly connected to a third nozzle 709. Gas is quickly delivered to the first nozzle 704 through the main gas pipe 703 and a powerful airflow is sprayed to clean the cracks, ensuring that dust, debris and other impurities in the cracks can be effectively removed, providing a clear view and spraying conditions for subsequent monitoring and marking work. The pigment tube 708 is connected to the third nozzle 709. When the liquid pump is started, fluorescent dye is delivered to the third nozzle 709 along the pigment tube 708 and sprayed to color the cracks. The marking of the fluorescent dye makes the cracks easier to distinguish.

[0029] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 Two fixed frames 6 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the main body 1. The top of the fixed frame 6 is welded to the fixed box 701. This connection method ensures a firm connection between the fixed box 701 and the main body 1, which can withstand various external forces and vibrations during the flight and operation of the UAV, and ensures the reliability and stability of the functional components. The symmetrical arrangement of the fixed frame 6 and the fixed box 701 helps to optimize the center of gravity distribution of the UAV, making the UAV more stable and easier to control during flight, and improving the safety and accuracy of flight.

[0030] See Figure 1 The main body 1 is equipped with propellers 5 around its perimeter, and a mounting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the main body 1. The propellers 5 ensure flight stability and controllability, enabling the drone to maintain balance in the air, improving the drone's flight efficiency and wind resistance, and allowing it to maintain a stable flight attitude even in strong wind conditions. The fixed connection between the mounting plate 2 and the main body 1 ensures the robustness and stability of the entire drone structure, enabling the drone to withstand various external forces and vibrations during flight and operation.

[0031] See Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4The mounting plate 2 has a base 3 on its top. The base 3 has fixing plates 8 on both sides for fixing the main air pipe 703, branch air pipe 705 and pigment pipe 708. The fixing plates 8 allow the pipes to be arranged and fixed in an orderly manner, avoiding loosening or damage due to vibration or external force during the flight of the UAV, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the UAV operation. As the main supporting component of the upper structure of the UAV, the mounting plate 2 has a base 3 on its top that provides a stable mounting foundation for the monitoring instrument 4 and other functional components.

[0032] See Figure 1 , Figure 4 A fixing ring 9 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the base 3. A monitoring device 4 is installed inside the fixing ring 9. The robust structure of the fixing ring 9 can effectively protect the monitoring device 4 from external impacts and vibrations during the flight and operation of the drone, ensuring the reliability and stability of the monitoring device 4.

[0033] See Figure 4 Four second nozzles 707 are provided, and the four second nozzles 707 are evenly and equidistantly arranged in a circular array along the inner wall of the fixing ring 9. This ensures that the gas can evenly cover the space around the monitor 4 when it is sprayed out, effectively preventing dust, debris and other pollutants blown off during crack cleaning from contaminating the monitor 4, ensuring the cleanliness of the monitor 4 and the accuracy of the monitoring data. The simultaneous operation of multiple second nozzles 707 increases the amount of gas sprayed and the coverage area, improving the efficiency of crack cleaning. The evenly distributed second nozzles 707 can ensure that the dust and debris around the crack are quickly blown away, providing a clear view for subsequent crack marking and monitoring.

[0034] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, after the operator controls the drone to fly to the designated position, the first nozzle 704 is aligned with the gap. Then, the air pump 710 is started to deliver gas through the main air pipe 703 to the first nozzle 704 for spraying out to clean the gap. At the same time, the gas is delivered through the branch air pipe 705 to the second nozzle 707 for spraying out to prevent dust and other pollutants blown off from contaminating the monitoring instrument 4. Then, the air pump 710 is stopped, the drone position is adjusted so that the third nozzle 709 is aligned with the gap, and the liquid pump inside the liquid tank 706 delivers fluorescent dye along the pigment pipe 708 to the third nozzle 709 for spraying out to coat and dye the gap and mark the gap. This makes it easier to distinguish information such as unmonitored gaps, newly generated gaps, and changes in subsequent gaps, and at the same time makes the inside of the gap easy to observe. Then, the monitoring instrument 4 monitors the gap.
