Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road defect detection technology, and specifically to an auxiliary device for road defect detection. Background Technology
[0002] After a period of time, cement or asphalt pavements inevitably develop various damages, deformations, and other defects, collectively known as pavement distress. Early common distresses include cracks, potholes, ruts, loosening, subsidence, bridge approach and culvert slab slab slab slab slabs, and surface damage. These distresses not only affect the aesthetics of the road but also pose a threat to traffic safety. If structural road distresses are not addressed promptly, they may worsen, leading to more serious consequences. Therefore, regular road inspections are essential. Regular inspections allow for the timely detection of distresses and the implementation of appropriate repair measures, ensuring safe passage and providing a reliable transportation environment for people. According to Chinese Patent CN222043810U, a road distress detection device detects road hazards, transmits the data to a control device, records the type and location of the hazards, and simultaneously controls a marking gun to mark the location of the hazards. The data is clearly statistically analyzed, facilitating subsequent maintenance and related cost accounting.
[0003] However, it was found that the above-mentioned technology does not have the function of cleaning the road surface during the inspection. It is inconvenient to clean up debris and garbage on the ground. During the inspection, it may directly cover the road defects, such as cracks and potholes, so that these defects cannot be exposed. When inspecting, the inspectors may overlook the hidden defects due to the debris on the surface, resulting in missed defects. Even if defects are found, it is difficult to accurately judge the severity and development trend of the defects. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a road defect detection auxiliary device, which solves the problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A road defect detection auxiliary device includes: a main body, four movable wheels fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body, a detection mechanism fixedly installed at the top of the main body, a circular hole opened at the top of the main body, and a tow bar fixedly installed on one side of the main body; and a sweeping component, which is disposed at the bottom of the main body and is used to sweep the ground.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the main body serves as the basic architecture of the entire device, playing a crucial role in supporting and connecting other components. The moving wheels enable the device to move flexibly on different road sections, adapting to the site requirements for various road defect detections. The detection mechanism is the core component for realizing the road defect detection function. The round hole provides a through passage for components such as the water outlet pipe. The towing rod connects to the tractor, enabling flexible traction of the device and improving operational flexibility and operability. The cleaning component cleans the road surface before road defect detection, providing a clean and clear detection environment for the device, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection.
[0008] Preferably, the cleaning assembly includes: a mounting slot located at the bottom of the main body; a first motor fixedly mounted inside the mounting slot; an electric telescopic rod fixedly mounted on the rotating end of the first motor; a U-shaped mounting plate fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod; insertion holes on both sides of the U-shaped mounting plate; a second motor fixedly mounted on both sides of the U-shaped mounting plate; the rotating shaft of the second motor movably fitting into the insertion holes; a roller brush fixedly mounted between the two second motors; the roller brush movably fitting inside the U-shaped mounting plate; and a dust baffle fixedly mounted on one side of the U-shaped mounting plate.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, an installation slot is set up to install the first motor, which provides rotational power to the electric telescopic rod.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, a water pump is installed to provide the necessary pressure for the water flow, enabling the water in the tank to overcome gravity and pipe resistance, smoothly pass through the outlet pipe and delivery hose, and finally be sprayed out from the nozzle. The delivery hose is responsible for delivering the water pressurized by the water pump to the nozzle, and the nozzle sprays the water delivered by the water pump at a specific angle and in a specific manner.
[0016] Preferably, a hinge is fixedly installed on one side of the main body, a striking rod is fixedly installed inside the hinge, and a sliding hammer is fixedly installed at one end of the striking rod.
