Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline inspection technology, and specifically to a pipeline inspection device. Background Technology

[0002] To understand the current status of underground pipeline resources, on-site investigation by surveyors is necessary. The manhole consists of a small cylindrical entry channel at the top and a large cubic operating space at the bottom. The pipe opening is located on the side wall of the lower cubic structure, forming a completely sealed structure. Due to the manhole's unique structural characteristics, the rectilinear propagation of light, the dim lighting inside the manhole, and the possibility of water submerging the pipe opening, surveyors cannot directly observe the pipe opening on the side wall from the outside of the manhole, thus hindering their ability to assess the current status of underground pipeline resources.

[0003] Therefore, exploration personnel need to enter the manhole for inspection. To ensure the safety of personnel working inside the manhole, the "Safety Production Operation Specifications for Telecommunications Construction Engineering" provides detailed operational specifications for manhole operations. Before entering the manhole, water must be pumped out; work must not be carried out while pumping water. Before entering a pipeline manhole, a dedicated gas detection instrument must be used to detect gases, confirming the absence of flammable, explosive, toxic, or harmful gases, and ventilation must be ensured before entry. During operations, good ventilation must be maintained, and dedicated gas detection instruments must be used for gas monitoring. Ladders must be used when ascending or descending the manhole; it is strictly forbidden to place ladders on cables inside the manhole, or to step on cables or cable trays. Personnel entering the manhole must wear full-body safety belts, safety helmets, and safety ropes correctly. Someone must supervise from above the manhole while working inside. During manhole operations, communication between the workers and the patrol personnel outside must be maintained, and the ladders used for ascending or descending the manhole must not be removed.

[0004] Since it is not possible to directly observe the situation inside the manhole from outside, the exploration personnel need to enter the manhole to explore. However, entering the manhole to explore requires compliance with safe production operation procedures, which not only consumes manpower but also involves too much preliminary safety preparation work, resulting in low exploration efficiency.

[0049] As can be seen from the background technology, since it is not possible to directly observe the situation inside the manhole from outside, the exploration personnel need to enter the manhole to explore. However, entering the manhole to explore requires compliance with safe production operation specifications, which not only consumes manpower but also involves too much preliminary safety preparation work, resulting in low exploration efficiency.

[0050] Therefore, this utility model embodiment discloses a pipe inspection device. In this solution, by changing the direction of light propagation through the inspection device, the inspector can observe the situation inside the manhole from outside the manhole, thereby achieving the purpose of saving manpower and improving inspection efficiency.

[0068] It should be noted that, since the diameter of the tube opening at the second end of the upper vertical tube 1 is 70mm, a circular hole with a diameter of 70mm is provided at the top of the horizontal tube 3 in order to ensure a proper fit at the connection point.

[0069] In one embodiment, the detection device further includes: a plurality of LED beads 9, a battery module 10 and a push-button switch 11; each LED bead 9 is connected to one end of the push-button switch 11, and the other end of the push-button switch 11 is connected to the battery module 10; each LED bead 9 is evenly arranged on the outer edge of the lens opening at the first end of the horizontal lens barrel 3.

The nominal voltage of the polymer lithium battery is 3.7V, the charging voltage of the polymer lithium battery is 4.2V to 5V, and the nominal capacity of the polymer lithium battery is 1000mAh.

[0074] It should be noted that the battery management device has protection functions such as overcharge protection, over-discharge protection, overvoltage protection, overcurrent protection, and short circuit protection.

[0075] like Figure 3 The image shown is a top view of a pipe detection device disclosed in an embodiment of this utility model.

[0076] In one embodiment, objective lens 6 is a circular plano-convex lens with a diameter of 63 mm, a focal length of 1000 mm, a center thickness of 3.96 mm, and an edge thickness of 3 mm.

[0077] Eyepiece 4 is a circular plano-convex lens with a diameter of 40mm, a focal length of 500mm, a center thickness of 3.25mm, and an edge thickness of 2.5mm.

[0078] The relay mirror 5 is an 80*80*80mm isosceles right-angled triangular prism with a total reflection coating on its beveled edge. That is, the length of the edge and the two right-angled sides of the isosceles right-angled triangular prism reflector is 80mm, and the reflecting surface of the isosceles right-angled triangular prism reflector is coated with a total reflection coating.

[0079] The reflecting surface is the hypotenuse of the isosceles right-angled triangular prism mirror.

[0080] In one embodiment, a filler for fixing the eyepiece 4 is provided between the eyepiece 4 and the opening of the first end of the upper vertical tube 1; a filler for fixing the objective lens 6 is provided between the objective lens 6 and the opening of the first end of the horizontal tube 3.

[0081] like Figure 4 The diagram shown is an application scenario diagram of a pipeline detection device disclosed in an embodiment of this utility model.

[0082] The overall appearance of this exploration device is an L-shaped tube with a hollow interior. The objective lens 6 and multiple LED beads 9 are mounted at the front end of the horizontal tube 3, and a relay mirror 5 is installed at the rear bend. An eyepiece 4 is installed at the opening of the first end of the upper vertical tube 1. The objective lens 6 and eyepiece 4 are lenses, and they are parallel to the end face of the tube. The relay mirror 5 is a reflecting mirror, with its reflecting surface forming a 45° angle with the horizontal tube 3.

[0083] In use, the explorer activates multiple LED beads 9 at the manhole opening via a push-button switch 11, then vertically inserts the exploration device into the manhole, adjusts its position appropriately, and aligns the objective lens 6 with the desired observation location. The LED beads 9 illuminate the object being observed, and the reflected light passes through the objective lens 6 into the horizontal lens tube 3. After being reflected by the relay lens 5, the light rises into the vertical lens tube, passes through the eyepiece 4, and enters the explorer's eye. Using this exploration device, the explorer, positioned downwards at the manhole opening, can observe the condition of the pipe holes on the inner sidewall of the manhole.

[0084] like Figure 5 The diagram shown is a schematic diagram of a pipeline detection device disclosed in an embodiment of this utility model.

[0085] The principal optical axis of objective lens 6 of this exploration device coincides with the center line of the horizontal tube 3, and the principal optical axis of eyepiece 4 coincides with the center line of the vertical tube (composed of the upper vertical tube 1 and the lower vertical tube 2). The principal optical axes of objective lens 6 and eyepiece 4 are located in the same plane and are perpendicular to each other. The relay lens 5 is mounted with its beveled side facing objective lens 6 and eyepiece 4, and its two right-angled sides are perpendicular to the principal optical axes of objective lens 6 and eyepiece 4, respectively. The center point of the reflecting surface is located at the intersection of the principal optical axes of objective lens 6 and eyepiece 4.

[0086] The LED beads 9 at the four corners of the horizontal lens tube 3 illuminate the inside of the manhole, increasing its brightness. Light reflected from the tube holes on the sidewall of the manhole passes horizontally through the objective lens 6. According to the imaging principle of a convex lens, light parallel to the principal axis of the lens is refracted and passes through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. Light passing through the focal point is then refracted again and becomes parallel to the principal axis. The parallel light rays, after passing through the objective lens 6, gradually converge towards the focal point, pointing towards the focal point of the objective lens 6, 1000mm away. The center of the reflective surface of the relay mirror 5 is 80mm from the center of the objective lens 6. Before reaching the focal point of the objective lens 6, the light rays are reflected by the relay mirror 5, forming a virtual objective lens and image behind the relay mirror 5. The light rays change from horizontal propagation to vertical upward propagation. The focal point of the objective lens 6 is effectively located 920mm above the principal axis of the objective lens 6, on the principal axis of the eyepiece 4, coinciding with the focal point of the eyepiece 4. After passing through the focal point of eyepiece 4, the light enters eyepiece 4 500mm away. After being refracted by eyepiece 4, it enters the eyes of the observer in parallel, allowing them to observe the condition of the tube holes on the inner side wall of the manhole.

[0087] A pipe inspection device disclosed in the above-described embodiment of the present invention includes: an upper vertical tube, a lower vertical tube, a horizontal tube, an eyepiece, a relay lens, an objective lens, and a first pin; the eyepiece is disposed at the tube opening of the first end of the upper vertical tube; the second end of the upper vertical tube is provided with the first pin, and the first end of the lower vertical tube has a pin hole; the second end of the upper vertical tube extends into the lower vertical tube through the tube opening of the first end of the lower vertical tube; the second end of the upper vertical tube and the first end of the lower vertical tube are movably connected by the first pin and the pin hole; a hole is provided at the top of the horizontal tube, and the tube opening of the second end of the lower vertical tube communicates with the horizontal tube through the hole; the objective lens is disposed at the tube opening of the first end of the horizontal tube, and the relay lens is disposed at the tube opening of the second end of the horizontal tube, the relay lens being used to reflect light incident on the objective lens to the eyepiece. In this solution, inspectors can observe the conditions inside the manhole from outside, without needing to enter, thus eliminating complex manhole operation procedures and improving inspection efficiency. Specific advantages are as follows:

[0088] This device eliminates the complex procedures of pumping water, gas detection, climbing ladders, and ventilation required to enter the manhole, saving significant time. It also eliminates the need for water pumps, gas detectors, blowers, ladders, and related transport vehicles and personnel, reducing exploration costs. Exploration personnel can work outside the manhole, eliminating the need for dedicated monitoring staff and reducing manpower. The device is compact and portable, measuring only 830mm in length when folded. Its hollow interior and lightweight design allow for easy carrying without the need for specialized vehicles. It is simple to use, requiring only one person to operate without assistance.
