Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline cleaning, specifically a pipeline cleaning device for trenchless pipeline repair. Background Technology

[0002] In trenchless pipeline repair technologies (such as CIPP lining, spiral winding, and UV curing), the pretreatment of the pipeline inner wall is one of the core steps determining the repair effect. Before repair, it is essential to thoroughly remove deposits, scale, tree root intrusions, and loose structures from the pipeline inner wall to ensure a tight bond between the repair material and the pipe wall.

[0003] Existing technologies often have the following problems when used:

[0004] 1. Existing trenchless pipeline repair and cleaning devices often only have cleaning brushes. Although they can clean deposits with low adhesion strength on the inner wall of the pipeline, some deposits are hard and have high adhesion strength, and cleaning with a cleaning brush alone is not thorough.

[0005] 2. An existing trenchless pipe repair and cleaning device has a problem where the cleaning brush is easily clogged with sludge after a period of use, resulting in a decrease in cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content
