Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of geomembrane defect detection technology, specifically to a multi-directional detection rod for geomembrane defects under load conditions. Background Technology

[0002] Geomembrane is a new type of seepage-proof material made from high molecular polymers. It has advantages such as strong deformation capacity, good seepage-proof performance, and low economic cost, and is widely used as seepage-proof material for hydraulic structures such as reservoirs, water storage tanks, and canals.

[0003] After the geomembrane is laid, it needs to be covered with a compacted layer of sand or gravel as a protective layer. During the compaction of this protective layer using heavy machinery, the underlying covering material can easily damage the geomembrane, affecting its waterproofing performance. For defect detection of geomembranes under covered conditions, a dual-electrode method is generally used. This method involves applying an electric field to the geomembrane and moving a detection device to locate defects based on the potential distribution within the protective layer. During detection, a power supply electrode is placed in both the upper and lower layers of the geomembrane, connected to the positive and negative terminals of a high-voltage DC power supply. Normally, when the geomembrane is intact, no circuit can be formed between the power supply electrodes. When there is a hole in the geomembrane, the defect provides a path, generating current in the circuit. In this case, the defect acts as a current source, and a significant anomaly in the potential field near the defect will appear. Therefore, the anomaly in the potential field on the membrane can be detected by moving a detection device to locate the hole. Existing mobile detection devices typically consist of a fixed support and receiving electrodes M and N at the bottom of the support. Data acquisition is achieved by moving the receiving electrodes M and N at the bottom of the device. However, these existing devices cannot be folded up, making them extremely inconvenient to carry. Furthermore, their large size limits efficiency during continuous testing. Therefore, to address these issues, it is necessary to propose a more efficient and portable device for detecting defects in geomembranes under heavy loads. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a multi-directional detection rod for geomembrane defects under load conditions.

[0005] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows: It includes a vertical telescopic rod, with a short handheld rod fixed to the top of the vertical telescopic rod; an installation rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vertical telescopic rod, and several sets of rotating sleeves are provided on the installation rod. The rotating sleeves can rotate horizontally, and horizontal telescopic rods are symmetrically fixed on both sides of each rotating sleeve; a steel rod clamp is fixed to the far end of each horizontal telescopic rod, and each steel rod clamp has a vertical through hole, with a steel rod fixed inside each vertical through hole, and a detection line connected to each steel rod.

[0006] Furthermore, a T-shaped tee is provided at the top of the vertical telescopic rod for mounting a short handheld rod. The bottom of the T-shaped tee is fixed to the vertical telescopic rod, and the short handheld rod is nested inside the top of the T-shaped tee.

[0007] Furthermore, a rubber ring is fixed inside the vertical through hole, and the inner diameter of the rubber ring is interference-fitted with the outer diameter of the steel rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the outermost telescopic cylinder of the vertical telescopic rod is fixed with several C-shaped steel rod clips, the number of which matches the number of steel rods.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping axis of the steel chisel clip is parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0010] Furthermore, the clamping opening of the steel rod clip is an arc-shaped opening, and the inner diameter of the arc-shaped opening is in overfitting with the steel rod.

[0011] Furthermore, four rotating sleeves are provided, and the four rotating sleeves are evenly distributed on the mounting rod.

[0012] Furthermore, the large telescopic end of the vertical telescopic pole is fixedly connected to the mounting pole, and the small telescopic end of the vertical telescopic pole is fixedly connected to the handheld short pole.

[0013] Furthermore, the steel chisel clamp is made of insulated plastic.

[0014] Furthermore, a conical portion is provided at the top of the steel rod, and a disc portion is provided at the top of the steel rod.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This utility model's multi-directional detection rod includes a vertical telescopic rod and several horizontal telescopic rods that can be telescopically stored, thereby reducing the size of the multi-directional detection rod. At the same time, it is used in conjunction with steel rod clips to store and fix several steel rods, further reducing the size of the multi-directional detection rod and making it convenient to carry and use.

[0017] The multi-directional detection rod of this utility model includes four sets of retractable steel rods. The two steel rods in each set form a set of receiving electrodes M and N. The four sets of receiving electrodes M and N can realize the detection of electrical signals in eight directions at the detection position.

[0018] The multi-directional detection rod of this utility model can realize the detection of geomembrane defects under the condition of cover weight. The grounding electrode of the traditional DC resistance dipole device has been modified to realize the free movement of the electrode, thereby realizing the detection of geomembrane defects (≥5mm) under the condition of cover weight (600mm).

[0019] The multi-directional detection rod of this invention eliminates the need for wire laying, electrode insertion, and electrode replacement, greatly improving detection efficiency. At the same time, compared with the traditional DC resistivity method detection device, one person can complete all the detection work, reducing labor intensity and greatly improving detection efficiency.
