Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tunnel lining crack detection technology, and in particular to a portable laser scanning detector for crack width in high-pressure tunnel lining. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of infrastructure construction, the safety and durability of high-pressure tunnels, as important water conservancy and transportation engineering facilities, have attracted much attention. As the main load-bearing structure of the tunnel, the lining is affected by factors such as water pressure or geological changes over a long period of time, leading to cracks. The width of the crack is an important indicator for assessing the health status of the lining structure. In recent years, laser scanning technology has been gradually applied to crack detection due to its high precision and non-contact measurement characteristics. However, existing technologies still have problems such as poor portability and insufficient environmental adaptability in practical applications, making it difficult to meet the detection needs in the complex environment of high-pressure tunnels.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN219223671U, which discloses a laser plane detector, specifically relating to the field of laser plane leveling instruments. The device includes a worktable, a laser, and a reflector. The laser is fixedly connected to the top of the worktable, and the reflector is located on one side of the laser. A threaded slide rod is slidably connected inside the worktable. A threaded rotating sleeve is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded slide rod, and a transmission gear is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rotating sleeve. A movable rack meshes with one side of the transmission gear, and a movable rod is fixedly connected to one side of the movable rack. A pushing block is fixedly connected to the top of the movable rod, and a sealing plate is fixedly connected to the top of the pushing block. This invention, by incorporating the threaded rotating sleeve and sealing plate, allows the threaded slide rod to cause the threaded rotating sleeve to rotate when the object to be measured is placed on the worktable. This rotation causes the transmission gear to rotate, ultimately automatically opening the waterproof box when the laser is in operation, solving the problem of water accumulation on the surface of the laser affecting the detection data when placed in humid areas. However, in practical use, while the device performs the actual detection work using the laser, the existing equipment is relatively large and difficult to use in narrow tunnels, thus reducing its adaptability. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a portable laser scanning detector for crack width in high-pressure tunnel lining, aiming to improve the problem that the existing equipment is too large and difficult to use in narrow tunnels, thus reducing the adaptability of the equipment.

[0040] Specifically, by activating the laser emission module 9, a high-precision laser beam can be generated. Subsequently, under the processing of the scanning module 7, the laser beam is emitted onto the lining surface to generate reflected light. The camera 4 can capture the reflected light signal at the crack. The image processor 8 then analyzes these signals, calculates the width of the crack, and transmits this data to the display screen 10 to display the detection results in real time. This enables high-precision detection of the width of cracks in the lining of high-pressure tunnels, improving detection efficiency and safety. Finally, through integrated design, the overall portability of the device is improved, making it suitable for use in the complex environment of high-pressure tunnels, and it can be operated smoothly even in narrow tunnels.
[0041] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5The heat dissipation mechanism 2 includes a variable frequency fan 201. The bottom wall of the variable frequency fan 201 is fixedly connected to the bottom left side of the outer casing 1. A filter column 202 is fixedly connected to the front left side of the variable frequency fan 201. The filter column 202 can filter the drawn air. The rear left side of the variable frequency fan 201 is connected to a conveying pipe 203. The top of the conveying pipe 203 is connected to a drying box 204. An adsorption sponge plate 205 is slidably connected inside the drying box 204. The filtered airflow can be dried by passing through the adsorption sponge plate 205. The top wall of the drying box 204 is connected to a connecting pipe 206. An annular nozzle 207 is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting pipe 206. The rear side of the annular nozzle 207 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the inner wall of the outer casing 1. The filtered and dried airflow can be sprayed out through the annular nozzle 207 to improve the heat dissipation effect. Two heat dissipation holes 209 are opened on the left and right sides of the front side of the outer casing 1.
[0042] Specifically, by starting the variable frequency fan 201, outside air can be effectively drawn in, and impurities in the air are filtered through the filter column 202, thus preventing dust particles from interfering with the equipment inside the device. The filtered air enters the drying box 204, where moisture in the air is absorbed by the adsorption sponge plate 205, thereby achieving the purpose of drying the air and preventing damage to the equipment that moisture may cause, thus ensuring the stable operation of the equipment. The airflow that has been filtered and dried will be output through the annular nozzle 207, avoiding the negative impact of heat on the working performance of the equipment. The air that has undergone heat exchange will be discharged through multiple heat dissipation holes 209, improving the heat dissipation effect inside the device and ensuring the efficient operation of the equipment.

[0044] Specifically, the rubber ring 208 can protect the top connection of the delivery pipe 203, the waterproof shell 13 can provide waterproof protection for the top of the camera 4, and the control switch 11, which is electrically connected to the camera 4, the scanning module 7, the image processor 8, the laser emitting module 9, the display screen 10 and the variable frequency fan 201 respectively, can turn the equipment on and off.
[0045] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 A handle 16 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the outer shell 1, and a rubber sleeve 17 is fixedly connected to the middle of the handle 16; two connecting seats 14 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the left and right sides of the outer shell 1, and a support column 15 is fixedly connected inside the connecting seat 14; the front side of the transparent protective shell 12 adopts a smooth design, and the horizontal height of the image processor 8 is the same as the horizontal height of the laser emitting module 9.
[0046] Specifically, the rubber sleeve 17 improves the anti-slip effect when using the handle 16, the connecting seat 14 and the support column 15 improve the stability of the device during operation, and the smooth design on the front side of the transparent protective shell 12 improves the service life of the transparent protective shell 12.
[0047] Working principle: When in use, the laser emitting module 9 is activated to form a high-precision beam. Then, under the processing of the scanning module 7, the laser beam is reflected onto the lining surface, causing it to reflect light onto the cracks. The camera 4 can then capture the reflected light at the cracks, and the image processor 8 can analyze the crack width and transmit it to the display screen 10, enabling real-time display of the detection results. This achieves high-precision detection of the crack width of high-pressure tunnel lining, improving detection efficiency and safety. Finally, the integrated design improves the overall portability of the device, making it suitable for the complex environment of high-pressure tunnels and enabling its use in narrow tunnels.
[0048] Furthermore, by starting the variable frequency fan 201, it draws in outside air through the filter column 202 and filters out impurity particles, preventing dust particles from interfering with the equipment inside the device. Subsequently, the airflow passes through the adsorption sponge plate 205 inside the drying box 204 to adsorb moisture, achieving the purpose of drying and preventing moisture from damaging the equipment. Then, the filtered and dried airflow is output through the annular nozzle 207, which reduces the impact of heat accumulation on equipment operation. The air after heat exchange is discharged through multiple heat dissipation holes 209, improving the heat dissipation effect inside the device.
