It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0025] As described in the background art, the pipeline environment is complex, and the trolley will experience movement, turning, and possible bumps, which may cause the X-ray machine to slide or even fall off the trolley.

[0026] To solve this technical problem, this utility model provides a trolley for internal pipeline flaw detection.

[0027] For details, please refer to Figures 1-7 A trolley for internal pipeline flaw detection. Specifically, it includes: a first placement frame 1, with a handle 2 fixed to one end; a second placement frame 3 slidably connected to the inner side of the first placement frame 1 away from the handle 2; both the first and second placement frames 1 and 3 are equipped with fixing mechanisms for fixing the detection equipment; telescopic rods 4 are fixed to both sides of the bottom of the first placement frame 1 near the handle 2; two telescopic rods 4 are also fixed to both sides of the bottom of the second placement frame 3 away from the handle 2; there are four telescopic rods 4 in total; each of the four telescopic rods 4 has a movable wheel 5 fixed to its telescopic end; and a locking component is also provided on the fixing mechanism for locking the fixing mechanism.

[0028] This utility model provides a trolley for internal pipeline flaw detection.

[0030] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] Reference Figures 1-4 A trolley for internal pipeline flaw detection includes a first placement frame 1, with a handle 2 fixed to one end of the first placement frame 1. A second placement frame 3 is slidably connected to the inner side of the first placement frame 1 away from the handle 2. Both the first placement frame 1 and the second placement frame 3 are provided with a fixing mechanism for fixing the detection equipment. Telescopic rods 4 are fixed to both sides of the bottom of the first placement frame 1 near the handle 2. Similarly, two telescopic rods 4 are fixed to both sides of the bottom of the second placement frame 3 away from the handle 2. There are a total of four telescopic rods 4. The telescopic ends of the four telescopic rods 4 are all fixed with movable wheels 5. The fixing mechanism is also provided with a locking component for locking the fixing mechanism.

[0033] The fixing mechanism includes a first fixing rod 6, a rotating plate 7, a rotating rod 8, a knob 9, a threaded rod 10, a threaded sleeve 11, a clamping plate 12, and a guide rod 13. The first fixing rod 6 is fixed to one side of both the first placement frame 1 and the second placement frame 3. The rotating plate 7 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the top of the first fixing rod 6. The rotating rod 8 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating plate 7. The knob 9 is fixed to the top of the rotating rod 8. The threaded rod 10 is fixed to the bottom of the rotating rod 8. The threaded sleeve 11 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 10. The clamping plate 12 is fixed to the bottom of the threaded sleeve 11. The guide rod 13 is fixed to both ends of the top of the clamping plate 12. The guide rod 13 is slidably connected to the rotating plate 7.

[0034] The fixing mechanism also includes a second fixing rod 14, a first connecting plate 15, a bolt 16 and a nut 17. One end of the rotating plate 7 is fixed with the first connecting plate 15. The inner side of the first connecting plate 15 is threaded with the bolt 16. The first placement frame 1 and the second placement frame 3 are both fixed with the second fixing rod 14 on the side away from the first fixing rod 6. The bolt 16 is threaded with the second fixing rod 14. The bottom end of the outer side of the bolt 16 is threaded with the nut 17.

[0035] With the fixing mechanism, the X-ray machine can be more securely fixed to the trolley, reducing the risk of the X-ray machine slipping off due to vibration or tilting during movement or trolley travel.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] Reference Figures 4-7A trolley for internal pipeline flaw detection includes a locking assembly comprising a first locking plate 18, a second locking plate 19, a first guide plate 20, a second guide plate 21, and a spring 22. The first locking plate 18 is fixed to the top of the outer side of a rotating rod 8, and the second locking plate 19 is slidably connected to the outer side of the rotating rod 8. The second locking plate 19 is located at the bottom of the first locking plate 18 and is locked to the first locking plate 18. Two first guide plates 20 are fixed to both ends of the outer side of the second locking plate 19, and two second guide plates 21 are fixed to the top of the rotating plate 7. The first guide plates 20 are slidably connected to the corresponding second guide plates 21. A spring 22 is sleeved on the bottom of the outer side of the first locking plate 18, and the top of the spring 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second locking plate 19.

[0038] The locking mechanism prevents the knob 9 from turning accidentally due to trolley shaking, bumping, or slight external contact, thus preventing the fixing mechanism from loosening and ensuring that the X-ray machine is always firmly fixed on the trolley, guaranteeing the smooth progress of the testing work.

[0039] The first guide plate 20 is I-shaped and is snapped into the inner side of the second guide plate 21. The I-shaped design of the first guide plate 20 can better limit the second snap-fit ​​plate 19.

[0040] The second placement rack 3 is fixed with searchlights 23 on both sides of the end away from the handle 2. The searchlights 23 are designed to be used to detect the condition inside the pipe.

[0041] The following is the usage process of a trolley for internal pipeline flaw detection provided by this utility model: When it is necessary to transport the X-ray machine by the trolley, the extension length of the second placement frame 3 is adjusted to adjust the overall length of the trolley. The X-ray machine is then placed on the first placement frame 1 and the second placement frame 3. The rotating plate 7 is then rotated so that the first connecting plate 15, which is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 7, comes into contact with the second fixed rod 14. The bolt 16 is then threadedly connected to the first connecting plate 15 and the second fixed rod 14. The nut 17 is then threadedly connected to the bolt 16, thereby tightening the second fixed rod 14 and the first connecting plate 15.

[0042] At this time, the second snap plate 19 is pressed to the bottom. At this time, the second snap plate 19 is no longer snapped with the first snap plate 18 through the teeth on the second snap plate 19. At this time, the first snap plate 18, which is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 8, is no longer restricted.

[0043] During the internal flaw detection of the pipeline, the trolley will undergo operations such as moving and turning, and the environment is relatively complex. The locking mechanism can prevent the knob 9 from being accidentally turned due to the trolley shaking, bumping or slight contact with external force, thereby preventing the fixing mechanism from loosening and ensuring that the X-ray machine is always firmly fixed on the trolley, ensuring the smooth progress of the inspection work.

[0044] Since the rotating rod 8 is fixedly connected to the knob 9 and the threaded rod 10, rotating the knob 9 will cause the threaded rod 10 to rotate, which in turn causes the threaded sleeve 11, which is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 10, to rise and fall. Since the threaded sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 12, the clamping plate 12 will come into contact with the X-ray machine. The design of the guide rod 13 makes the rising and falling of the clamping plate 12 more stable.

[0045] With the fixing mechanism, the X-ray machine can be more securely fixed to the trolley, reducing the risk of the X-ray machine slipping off due to vibration or tilting during movement or trolley travel.

[0046] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to specific implementations. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
