Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of endoscopic inspection equipment, and in particular to a vehicle endoscope auxiliary mechanism and endoscopic inspection equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive endoscope inspection equipment is a professional inspection tool used in the automotive manufacturing and repair fields. It is primarily used to comprehensively observe the internal condition of automotive components such as the engine, fuel system, and exhaust system in real time without damaging the vehicle parts. This helps inspectors quickly find defects, locate faults, and verify the effectiveness of maintenance. Automotive endoscopes are a non-destructive inspection method that utilizes built-in high-power light sources, guidance technology, and image sensors to achieve remote, visual, and non-destructive inspection of automotive components. It can inspect the internal condition of critical components such as the engine, transmission, and fuel system, detecting issues like carbon buildup, wear, and cracks, without disassembling the vehicle. Through technological innovation, automotive endoscopes have overcome the limitations of traditional inspection methods, becoming an indispensable tool in the modern automotive industry. Their non-destructive and efficient characteristics will continue to drive technological innovation in the industry. In conventional automotive endoscope inspection equipment, after the user controls the endoscope detector to turn on, a probe is installed at one end of the detector via a connecting cable. This probe is used to inspect the condition of the vehicle's internal components.

[0003] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that conventional automotive endoscope inspection equipment is prone to obstruction of the inspection image during use due to the presence of numerous impurities in the components inside the vehicle. These impurities can easily accumulate on the probe as it moves, causing inconvenience during use.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problem that the probe of an automotive endoscope is easily obstructed by impurities inside the vehicle, this application provides an auxiliary mechanism for a vehicle endoscope and an endoscope inspection device.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this application for a vehicle endoscope auxiliary mechanism and endoscope inspection equipment is as follows:

[0007] An auxiliary mechanism for vehicle endoscopes and an endoscope inspection device include an endoscope detector and a cleaning tube. A connecting wire is fixedly installed at one end of the endoscope detector, and a probe head is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting wire away from the endoscope detector. One end of the cleaning tube is connected to a mounting box, and a rotating motor is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting box. A cleaning fan blade is fixedly connected to the output end of the rotating motor. The surface of the cleaning fan blade is rotatably mounted to the inner wall of the mounting box. One end of the cleaning tube is movably connected to the surface of the probe head, and the dimensions of the cleaning tube surface are compatible with the dimensions of the probe head surface. The center of the rotating motor and the center of the cleaning fan blade are on the same straight line.

[0008] Preferably, two fixing straps are fixedly installed on the surface of the cleaning tube. The inner wall of the fixing strap is movably connected to the surface of the probe. The size of the inner wall of the fixing strap is adapted to the size of the probe and the surface of the cleaning tube. An adhesive tape is fixedly connected to one end of the fixing strap, and one end of the adhesive tape is fixedly connected to the surface of the cleaning tube.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom end of the cleaning tube is connected to a feed ring, which is a rubber ring, and the center of the feed ring is on the same straight line as the center of the cleaning tube.

[0010] Preferably, a limiting frame is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting box, and a storage bag is snapped onto the surface of the limiting frame, with one end of the storage bag connected to one end of the mounting box.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the storage bag is fixedly connected to a fixing ring, which is a rubber ring, and the inner wall of the fixing ring is engaged with the surface of the limiting frame. The dimensions of the inner wall of the fixing ring are compatible with the dimensions of the surface of the limiting frame.

[0012] Preferably, two air outlet filters are fixedly installed on the surface of the storage bag, and the two air outlet filters are symmetrically distributed about the storage bag axis.

[0013] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0014] 1. By installing a cleaning tube on the surface of the probe, one end of the cleaning tube is connected to a mounting box, and one end of the mounting box is equipped with a rotating motor. A cleaning fan blade is installed at the output end of the rotating motor. This allows the rotating motor to control the rotation of the cleaning fan blade, creating a negative pressure airflow to adsorb impurities at one end of the cleaning tube, preventing impurities from obstructing the surface of the probe. A fixing strap is installed on the surface of the cleaning tube, with an adhesive tape at one end. The inner wall of the fixing strap engages with the surface of the probe, allowing the cleaning tube to be installed on the probe surface using the fixing strap and adhesive tape. Separating the fixing strap and adhesive tape facilitates disassembly of the cleaning tube. A rubber infeed ring is installed at the bottom of the cleaning tube to increase the cleaning range. The rubber material of the infeed ring contracts upon contact with objects, facilitating the movement of the probe to narrower locations. Compared to existing technologies, this method effectively improves the performance of the endoscope detector.

[0015] 2. A limiting bracket can also be installed at one end of the installation box. A collection bag is attached to the surface of the limiting bracket to collect impurities sucked into the installation box from the cleaning pipe, preventing impurities from scattering and polluting the surrounding environment. A rubber retaining ring is installed at one end of the collection bag, and the inner wall of the retaining ring is engaged with the surface of the limiting bracket, making it easy to install the collection bag on the surface of the limiting bracket and making it easier to disassemble the collection bag. Two air outlet filters are installed inside the collection bag to ensure the airflow effect of the cleaning fan blades and to retain impurities inside the collection bag, effectively improving the performance of the device.

A fixing strap 8 is installed on the surface of the cleaning tube 4, and one end of the fixing strap 8 is equipped with... There is an adhesive tape 9, and the inner wall of the fixing tape 8 is engaged with the surface of the probe head 3, so that the cleaning tube 4 can be installed on the surface of the probe head 3 by means of the fixing tape 8 and the adhesive tape 9, and the fixing tape 8 and the adhesive tape 9 can be separated to facilitate the disassembly of the cleaning tube 4, making it convenient to install and disassemble the device, so that the cleaning tube 4 can be cleaned and replaced when it is blocked or aged. The bottom end of the cleaning tube 4 is equipped with a rubber feed ring 10, so that the cleaning range of the cleaning tube 4 can be increased by means of the feed ring 10, and the rubber material of the feed ring 10 can be contracted when in contact with objects, so that the probe head 3 can be moved to some narrow positions.

[0026] A limiting bracket 11 can also be installed at one end of the mounting box 5. A collection bag 12 is attached to the surface of the limiting bracket 11 to collect impurities sucked into the mounting box 5 from the cleaning pipe 4, thus preventing impurities from scattering and polluting the surrounding environment.
