[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0026] Example 1: Referring to Figures 1-4, a pipe video dredging machine includes: a mounting bracket 3, on which a display control system is mounted; a flexible shaft mechanism is wound on a take-up reel 4 rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 3; one end of the flexible shaft mechanism is connected to the end of a booster 8; the other end of the booster 8 is connected to the end of a dredging device 9; a camera 10 is mounted on the side of the booster 8; an LED light is mounted on the end of the camera 10; the camera 10 is electrically connected to the display control system via a wire; and the LED light is electrically connected to the display control system via a second wire.
[0027] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0028] The take-up reel 4, rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 3, can store the flexible shaft mechanism. When pipe unblocking is required, rotating the take-up reel 4 releases the flexible shaft mechanism. Then, the unblocker 9 is inserted into the pipe. After applying external force to the flexible shaft mechanism, the unblocker 9 unblocks the dirt in the pipe. The synchronous booster 8 guides the movement of the unblocker 9 in the pipe. After unblocking, the display control system supplies power to the camera 10 and the LED lighting through the wire and wire 2 respectively. The LED lighting illuminates the environment inside the pipe, and the camera 10 provides feedback on the condition inside the pipe. The operator can intuitively observe the condition of the inner wall of the pipe through the display control system. By setting the camera 10 and the LED lighting in the device, after cleaning the pipe, the LED lighting illuminates the inside of the pipe. The camera 10 provides feedback on the cleaning status inside the pipe to the operator through the display control system, thereby quickly checking the cleaning effect. Poorly cleaned areas can be identified and cleaned a second time, improving the efficiency of pipe cleaning.
[0029] Example 2: Referring to Figures 1-4, the flexible shaft mechanism includes: a flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 and a transmission flexible shaft 15. The flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 is wound on the take-up reel 4. The transmission flexible shaft 15 is rotatably connected inside the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7. The end of the transmission flexible shaft 15 is connected to the end of the booster 8. The mounting bracket 3 holds a high-speed power drill 5. The output end of the high-speed power drill 5 can be connected to the other end of the transmission flexible shaft 15.
[0030] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0031] When it is necessary to use the booster 8 to drive the drain cleaner 9 to unclog the pipe, remove the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 wrapped on the reel 4, and then remove the high-speed power drill 5 and connect its output end to the other end of the transmission flexible shaft 15. After the drain cleaner 9 is placed inside the pipe, start the high-speed power drill 5. The output shaft of the high-speed power drill 5 rotates, driving the transmission flexible shaft 15 to rotate, thereby making the booster 8 and the drain cleaner 9 rotate synchronously. The drain cleaner 9 can clean the inner wall of the pipe. Then, apply external force to the high-speed power drill 5 along the direction of the pipe, and the drain cleaner 9 can continuously clean the depth of the pipe. By setting the transmission flexible shaft 15 and the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 to rotate, it is possible to prevent dirt in the pipe from damaging the transmission flexible shaft 15. Based on the physical characteristics of the transmission flexible shaft 15, its cooperation with the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 allows the drain cleaner 9 to pass smoothly through pipes of various angles and clean the pipes during the movement, increasing the applicability of the device to cleaning various types of pipes.
[0032] Example 3: Referring to Figures 1-4, the booster 8 includes: a booster body, a mounting plate and a booster guide wheel 11. The end of the transmission flexible shaft 15 is connected to the end of the booster body. The side of the booster body is connected to the ends of multiple mounting plates. The other end of each mounting plate is rotatably connected to the booster guide wheel 11. The other end of the booster body is connected to a drain cleaner 9.
[0033] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0034] During the process of the drain cleaner 9 cleaning the pipe, since the side of the booster body is connected to the mounting plate, and the booster guide wheel 11 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate, when the booster body is subjected to external force from the transmission flexible shaft 15, the booster guide wheel 11 can roll and cooperate with the inner wall of the pipe, thereby guiding the drain cleaner 9. At the same time, due to the setting of the mounting plate, there is a certain gap between the booster body and the inner wall of the pipe. Also, since the booster body is connected to the end of the transmission flexible shaft 15, the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 outside the transmission flexible shaft 15... A certain gap can exist between the mounting plate and the inner wall of the pipeline, thereby protecting the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7 and reducing the risk of wear on the flexible shaft protective sleeve 7. Since different pipeline inner diameters vary, and since the mounting plate is connected to the side wall of the booster body, the mounting plate can be replaced in a timely manner to adapt to the needs of pipelines with different inner diameters. At the same time, when the booster guide wheel 11 malfunctions or needs to be repaired, the mounting plate can be directly removed from the booster body, and after replacing it with a new mounting plate, the device can be put into cleaning work immediately.
[0035] Example 4: Referring to Figures 1-4, the side of the booster body is connected to the camera 10, and the video input end of the camera 10 is set towards the unclogger 9.
[0036] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0037] The booster body provides a mounting position for the camera 10, with the video input end of the camera 10 facing the drain cleaner 9, facilitating efficient observation of the internal condition of the pipe.
[0038] Example 5: Referring to Figures 1-4, an LED light 2 12 is connected to the end of the booster body. The LED light 2 12 is electrically connected to the display control system through a wire 3.
[0039] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0040] Installing LED lights 212 at the end of the booster body further enhances the device's illumination effect on the inner wall of the pipe.
[0041] Example 6: Referring to Figures 1-4, the display control system includes: a display 1 and a controller 2. The display 1 and the controller 2 are mounted on the mounting bracket 3. The display 1 is electrically connected to the controller 2 via a cable. The display 1 is electrically connected to the camera 10 via a wire. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the lighting LED and the second lighting LED 12 via wire 2 and wire 3, respectively.
[0042] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0043] The controller 2 supplies power to the display 1, the lighting LED and the second lighting LED 12 via cables, wire 2 and wire 3. The camera 10 provides video signal feedback to the display 1 via wires, which improves the system integration effect of the device and makes it easier for the operator to intuitively observe the internal condition of the pipeline.
[0044] Example 7: Referring to Figures 1-4, the unblocking device 9 includes: a connecting bolt 13, and a screw hole is opened at the other end of the booster body. The screw hole is threadedly connected to the connecting bolt 13, and an unblocking mechanism is threadedly connected to the connecting bolt 13.
[0045] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0046] The connecting bolt 13 is threaded into the screw hole, which increases the stability of the connecting bolt 13 after it is connected to the booster body. The threaded connection on the connecting bolt 13 has a cleaning mechanism to facilitate cleaning of the inside of the pipe.
[0047] Example 8: Referring to Figures 1-4, the unblocking mechanism includes: a connecting locking screw 14, a screw block connected to the connecting bolt 13, a screw hole 2 on the screw block, the screw hole 2 being threadedly connected to the connecting locking screw 14, the end of the connecting locking screw 14 being in contact with the threaded section of the connecting bolt 13, and an unblocking structure being installed on the screw block.
[0048] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0049] The connecting locking screw 14 can improve the stability of the screw block after it is connected to the connecting bolt 13. The unblocking structure can be a hinge or a knife, etc. The cooperation between the screw block and the connecting locking screw 14 improves the stability of the unblocking structure after installation. The unblocking structure can be a hinge or a knife, etc. Different unblocking structures can be used to clean different types of pipes, improving the practicality of the device during operation.
[0050] Example 9: Referring to Figures 1-4, a pair of guide wheels are installed on one side of the bottom end of the mounting bracket 3.
[0051] The principles and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:
[0052] A pair of guide wheels are installed on one side of the bottom of the mounting bracket 3. The guide wheels can improve the overall movement efficiency of the device.
[0053] Example 10: Referring to Figures 1-4, a pair of legs are installed on the other side of the bottom end of the mounting bracket 3.
