Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road engineering testing technology, and in particular to an asphalt pavement crack detection device. Background Technology

[0002] In road infrastructure construction and maintenance, asphalt pavement is widely used due to its good comfort, skid resistance, and ease of construction. However, with the continuous increase in traffic flow, the increasing vehicle load, and the long-term effects of natural environmental factors, asphalt pavement inevitably develops cracks and other defects. Therefore, major and medium-sized repairs of asphalt pavement are necessary. Before these repairs, crack detection of the asphalt pavement is required. However, traditional crack detection devices still have the following problems:

[0003] The controller and sealing cover of the existing device are mostly fixed with bolts, which is time-consuming and laborious to disassemble and assemble. Moreover, it requires the use of disassembly tools such as screwdrivers. Under the tight schedule requirements of major and medium-sized maintenance, the traditional disassembly and assembly methods cannot meet the needs of rapid maintenance. In addition, the bolts are prone to stripping due to vibration, which can lead to the failure of the device's seal and cause the controller to collide.

[0004] Traditional scanners are mostly mounted on fixed brackets at the bottom of the inspection vehicle, and bolts are needed to secure the scanner's mounting position. When there are ruts, potholes, or unevenness in the road section where major and medium repairs are carried out, the distance or angle between the inspection probe and the road surface will be offset. In addition, it also reduces the convenience of disassembling and assembling the scanner. Utility Model Content

[0051] Example 2, based on Example 1, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, a power supply and control module need to be installed inside the mobile body 1, and the power supply, control module and controller 4 are electrically connected. The controller 4 and fan 3 are electrically connected in accordance with the prior art, so that the whole device, together with the power supply and module, forms an asphalt pavement crack detection device.

[0052] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0053] First, place the mobile body 1 on the section of road to be inspected, adjust the moving wheels to a stable state, and make the positioning groove at the bottom of the protective housing 2 cooperate with the positioning frame 7. Push the positioning frame 7 into the positioning groove of the protective housing 2, and the first locking rod 204 resets and locks the positioning frame 7 through the support spring, thus completing the installation of the positioning frame 7.

[0054] The scanner 8 is adjusted and locked by lifting the connecting plate 902 upwards, which causes the second locking rods 901 on both sides to disengage from the locking seat 701. At this time, the scanner 8 can rotate around the hinge point. According to the road surface inspection requirements, such as the direction of cracks, the tilt angle of the scanner 8 is adjusted. The connecting plate 902 is released, and the second locking rod 901 moves downwards under the action of the support spring, so that the locking block at the bottom of the second locking rod 901 engages with the locking groove, thus completing the angle locking of the scanner 8. The air outlet sleeve and the air inlet sleeve are connected through the bendable drainage pipe to ensure smooth airflow between the fan 3 and the drainage housing 10. The filter screen 203 is installed on the side of the protective housing 2. If necessary, the surface of the filter screen 203 is blown with compressed air. The power switch inside the moving body 1 is turned on to power the power supply and control module. The indicator light of the controller 4 lights up. This step is the conventional existing operation step.

[0055] When the controller 4 is activated, the fan 3 starts to generate negative pressure. Outside air enters the protective housing 2 through the filter screen 203 to dissipate heat for the controller 4. At the same time, airflow is delivered to the drainage housing 10 through the drainage pipe. The exhaust hole at the bottom of the drainage housing 10 is aligned with the surface of the scanner 8. The airflow blows away the adhering dust to ensure that the scanning lens is clear.

[0056] The mobile body 1 is driven along the road surface, and the scanner 8 transmits detection signals in real time to collect three-dimensional data on the road surface cracks and simultaneously record parameters such as the location, width, and length of the cracks. This step is a conventional existing operation procedure.

[0057] When the moving body 1 encounters a bumpy road surface, the angle of the scanner 8 can be temporarily adjusted to avoid detection errors caused by bumps.

[0058] Pull the positioning rod 601 to unlock the locking frame 6, remove the sealing cover 5, and clean the dust from the controller 4 and fan 3 inside the protective housing 2;

[0059] The scanner 8 is adjusted to a vertical position and fixed by the second locking rod 901 to prevent damage from shaking during transportation. Through the above steps, the device can efficiently complete the automated detection of cracks in asphalt pavement, providing accurate data support for major and medium-sized road repairs.
