[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0031] Reference Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a pipe inner diameter measuring device, including:
[0032] Work platform 100;
[0033] A measuring assembly 200 is mounted on top of the work platform 100. The measuring assembly 200 includes a support 210, a height adjustment unit 220, a rotating unit 230, and a laser measuring unit 240. The height adjustment unit 220 is connected to the top of the support 210. The laser measuring unit 240 is rotatably connected to the top of the height adjustment unit 220 via the rotating unit 230. The laser measuring unit 240 includes a laser emitter 241 and a camera 242 located on one side of the laser emitter 241. The height adjustment unit 220 is used to adjust the height of the laser measuring unit 240. The rotating unit 230 is used to drive the laser measuring unit 240 to rotate. The laser measuring unit 240 also includes a housing, a main board, a battery board, a switch control, and a digital display panel. The housing can be made of plastic.
[0034] The specimen fixing assembly 300 is used to fix the specimen 400 to be tested on the working platform 100;
[0035] The measuring component 200 is located within the test piece 400; the laser beam from the laser emitter 241 strikes the inner wall of the test piece 400, forming laser points; the camera 242 captures the laser points. The laser emitter 241 and the camera 242 can rotate 360 degrees to acquire multiple images of the laser points. These images are then processed in the background to determine the inner diameter of the test piece 400.
[0036] Specifically, in this embodiment, the laser emitter 241 emits a laser beam onto the inner wall of the test piece 400, thereby forming a laser point on the inner wall of the test piece 400. The camera 242 captures images of the laser point. As the laser emitter 241 and camera 242 rotate one revolution, the camera 242 captures multiple images (the captured images can indicate whether they are images of defect locations or normal images). During data acquisition, images of defect locations are discarded, retaining only normal image data, thus determining the perimeter of the test piece 400, and then calculating its diameter. Therefore, this application can eliminate abnormal data at defect locations (depressions or protrusions), thereby avoiding impact on the test structure and improving the accuracy of the test data. Furthermore, the height of the measuring component 200 in this application is adjustable, enabling measurement of test pieces 400 of different specifications. This application enables rapid and accurate measurement of pipe inner diameter, reducing measurement errors, improving measurement precision, and saving manpower and time; it can also measure pipes of various specifications.
[0037] Furthermore, this application also includes a leveling element 500; the leveling element 500 is disposed on top of the laser emitter 241. In some embodiments, the leveling element 500 may be a spirit level for easy leveling.
[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the level measuring device 500 can monitor whether the laser emitter 241 is in a horizontal state before the test. If it is not in a horizontal state, the adjusting foot 212 can be adjusted until it is horizontal.
[0039] Furthermore, the measurement assembly 200 also includes a height sensor for monitoring the height of the laser. In some embodiments, the height sensor may be an infrared ranging sensor, which includes an infrared emitting tube 250 and a receiving tube 260; one of the infrared emitting tube 250 and the receiving tube 260 is connected to the working platform 100, and the other is connected to the laser emitter 241 and located on one side of the laser emission port 243 of the laser emitter 241.
[0040] Specifically, during the testing process, it is necessary to measure the diameter at half the height of the test piece 400. Therefore, this embodiment can monitor the height of the laser emitter 241 in real time, thereby adjusting the laser emitter 241 to the corresponding height according to the length of the test piece 400 before the test, so that the laser beam emitted by the laser emitter 241 hits the test piece 400 at half its height, which facilitates quick adjustment and height determination.
[0041] Furthermore, the measuring component 200 also includes a light source 270; the light source 270 is disposed on the working platform 100 and is located on one side of the support 210.
[0042] Specifically, this embodiment can provide ambient light for camera 242 to capture, thereby improving the shooting effect.
[0043] Furthermore, the height adjustment unit 220 includes a first support rod 221, a second support rod 222, and a sleeve 223; the first support rod 221 is connected to the top of the support 210; the second support rod 222 is connected to the bottom of the laser measuring unit 240; the sleeve 223 is fitted onto the top of the first support rod 221 and the bottom of the second support rod 222; a first tightening screw 224 and a second tightening screw 225 are connected to the side wall of the sleeve 223; the first tightening screw 224 abuts against the side wall of the first support rod 221, and the second tightening screw 225 abuts against the side wall of the second support rod 222.
[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the sleeve 223 is sleeved on the first support rod 221 and the second support rod 222. The sleeve 223 is connected to the first support rod 221 by the first tightening screw 224 and to the second support rod 222 by the second tightening screw 225, thereby enabling adjustment of any height position.
[0045] Furthermore, at least two specimen fixing components 300 are provided; along the circumferential direction, at least two specimen fixing components 300 are evenly distributed.
[0046] Specifically, this embodiment can stably and reliably fix the test piece 400 on the working platform 100, thereby avoiding the movement of the test piece 400 during the test and affecting the measurement, thus improving the measurement accuracy and precision.
[0047] Furthermore, the specimen fixing assembly 300 includes a fixing nut 310, a screw 320, a movable head 330, and a clamp 340; the fixing nut 310 is connected to the working platform 100; the screw 320 is threadedly connected to the fixing nut 310; one end of the screw 320 is movably connected to the movable head 330, and the movable head 330 is connected to the clamp 340; the inner wall of the clamp 340 is provided with an arc-shaped groove, which is in close contact with the outer wall of the specimen 400 to be tested.
[0048] Specifically, in this embodiment, the end of the screw 320 extends and retracts when the fixing nut 310 rotates. Since the end of the screw 320 is movably connected to the movable head 330, the movable head 330 will extend and retract with the screw 320 without rotating, thereby causing the clamp 340 to move closer to or further away from the test piece 400, thereby clamping and locking or releasing the test piece 400. The structure is simple and easy to operate.
[0049] Furthermore, the support 210 includes three brackets 211; the bottom of each bracket 211 is threaded with an adjusting foot 212.
[0050] Specifically, in this embodiment, the level of the measuring component 200 is adjusted by adjusting the adjusting foot 212, which is convenient and quick to operate.
[0051] Furthermore, the rotating part 230 includes a motor 231, a driving gear 232, and a driven gear 233; the motor 231 is connected to one side of the height adjustment part 220; the output end of the motor 231 is connected to the driving gear 232, and the driven gear 233 meshes with the driving gear 232; the driven gear 233 is coaxially connected to the laser measuring part 240, and the driven gear 233 is rotatably connected to the top of the height adjustment part 220.
[0052] Specifically, this application adopts a gear transmission structure, has a long service life, and can adapt to continuous operation in industrial environments with proper lubrication and protection.
[0053] Furthermore, the measuring assembly 200 also includes a rotating shaft 234; the rotating shaft 234 is connected to the top of the height adjustment section 220, and the driven gear 233 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 234 through a bearing.

However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
