Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the prior art, due to the limitations of various geographical conditions and for the convenience of transportation, etc., it is usually necessary to arrange oil pipelines, gas pipelines, natural gas pipelines, etc. underwater, and once these transportation pipelines fail or leak, they will affect the water body. Very large pollution. In the prior art, most of the existing technologies are to install monitoring pressure equipment on the pipeline to monitor the pipeline, but the specific damage and pictures outside the pipeline cannot be obtained, and it cannot be checked manually, so it can be passed accordingly. The inspection robot is used for inspection. The structure of the robot used for underwater pipelines in the prior art is not reasonable enough to adapt to various pipeline sizes, and it cannot reasonably walk on the pipeline; in addition, the existing technology is used for underwater inspections. The robot needs to work underwater, so the cables used need to have good waterproof performance. In the prior art, the waterproof performance of the cables is mostly set by setting a waterproof layer to prevent external water ingress, but the cables are usually made of multi-strand cables. The core is composed of cores, and the cable cores are filled with fillers. Since the conductors in the cable cores will generate heat when they are working, resulting in temperature and pressure differences, etc., air will enter the gaps between the cable cores. , and if there is moisture in this part of the air, it will gradually accumulate inside the inspection robot, which will have a great impact on the use of the inspection robot

Embodiment Construction

[0024] The present invention will be further illustrated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is implemented on the premise of the technical solution of the present invention. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0025] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 5 As shown, a pollution inspection robot for underwater pipelines includes at least three robot housings 101, the robot housings 101 are integrally arranged in a ring-shaped housing structure, and each robot housing 101 includes a corresponding A shell 1, a second shell 2, a third shell 3 and a fourth shell 4; and each shell is set as an arc shell structure with a radian of 90°; and the first shell 1 and the fourth shell The arc lengths of the two shells 2 are the same, the arc lengths of the third shell 3 and the fourth shell 4 are the same, and the a...

Abstract

The invention discloses a pollution inspection robot used for an underwater pipeline. The pollution inspection robot at least comprises three robot housings which integrally arranged to be circular ring shaped housing structures, wherein each robot housing comprises a first housing, a second housing, a third housing and a fourth housing correspondingly, the first housing is provided with an arc-shaped housing structure with a radian of 90 degrees, the first housing and the second housing are the same in arc length, and the third housing and the fourth housing are the same in arc length. The inspection robot disclosed by the invention consists of multiple robot housings, and each robot housing is of the circular-ring shaped housing structure, so that underwater pipelines can be correspondingly clamped into the circular ring shaped housings; and adjacent robot housings are connected through a waterproof spring tube, so that on one hand, communication waterproof communication cables can be correspondingly mounted, on the other hand, each robot housing is conveniently turned and steered, and thus, the integral structure smoothly travels on the pipeline.
