Description

The utility model is intended for illumination and visualization of images of internal cavities and hard-to-reach surfaces of various technical objects, in particular mechanical vehicles during a technical condition check during a control inspection of the bottom for damage to structural elements, leakage of fuel, oils and special liquids, as well as during inspection of the bottom of the vehicle for the presence of foreign objects (explosive devices and prohibited substances) at checkpoints.

A known inspection device [patent RU No. 34762 G02B 7/182 F21V 33/00], containing a rod, a mirror mounted on its lower end with the ability to change its position, a lighting source placed on it with an on-off unit, and a power source placed inside it , wherein the illumination source is located to allow direct illumination of the inspected object and is made predominantly in the form of at least one light-emitting diode selected from the condition of radiation in the visible optical range, the mirror is made replaceable, and the rod is made telescopic, at least from two sections, one of which is made of carbon fiber and equipped with a unit for fixing the positions of the sections, containing a flywheel with an eccentric.

The disadvantage of the device is the design of the coaxial design of the handle with a telescopic rod (the upper part of the rod is the handle), which creates inconvenience in holding the device in the hand, accompanied by rotation of the hand and significant tension in the joints and muscles of the examiner’s hand, due to the task of eliminating arbitrary slight rotation of the hand with the rod, causing a change in the reflection angles of the inspected object and the direction of the light flux.

A device for inspection of vehicles is known [patent RU No. 202200 B60S 5/00], containing a telescopic rod with a handle, in the upper part of which a battery is attached, connected via electrical wires to a light source located in a reflector, connected to the lower part of the telescopic rod through a movable fastening of the reflector, with the reflector pointing upward, and a mirror is also attached to the bottom of the telescopic rod through a movable mount.

The disadvantage of the device is the design of the handle being coaxial with a telescopic rod (the upper part of the rod is the handle), which creates inconvenience in holding the device in the hand.

A telescopic inspection rod is known [access link: http://www.bnti.ru/des.asp?itm=6557&tb1=03.03.01.&p=2], containing a lighting element, which is an LED flashlight mounted on the bottom of the rod, cross handle, shoulder rest, power source and a replaceable inspection mirror installed at the bottom of the boom.

The specified technical solution is closest to the claimed one in terms of technical essence and achieved result and is accepted as a prototype.

The disadvantage of the prototype is the design of the shoulder rest without the ability to adjust its height and the diameter of the forearm circumference, which does not ensure reliable fixation of the bar in the hand of inspecting persons who have different anthropometric parameters and wear clothes with different sleeve thicknesses.

The technical result of the utility model is aimed at ensuring reliable fixation of the device in the hand of searchers with different anthropometric parameters or the thickness of clothing sleeves, and as a result, improving the quality of the search.

The technical result is achieved in that a device for vehicle inspection, containing a telescopic rod with a cross handle, a shoulder rest, a backlight element, a power source and a replaceable inspection mirror, is equipped with a shoulder rest located on the upper part of the rod, installed in its middle part with the possibility of extension from it and fixed by a locking device, and made of two concave plates hingedly connected to each other, the connection angle of which is changed and fixed by an adjusting device consisting of a screw with a rotating rim mounted on it, hingedly connected by means of two pushers to the back side of the concave plates, and threaded boss made on the top of the rod.

Distinctive features from the prototype are that the shoulder rest is located on the upper part of the rod, installed in its middle part with the ability to be pulled out of it and fixed with a locking device, and is made of two concave plates hingedly connected to each other, the connection angle of which changes and is fixed by an adjusting a device consisting of a screw with a rotating rim mounted on it, hingedly connected by means of two pushers with the back side of the concave plates, and a threaded boss made on the top of the rod.

In fig. Figure 1 shows the appearance of the proposed device for vehicle inspection.

In fig. Figure 2 shows the shoulder rest adjustment device.

The proposed device for inspection of vehicles contains a telescopic rod consisting of an upper 1, middle 2 and lower 3 parts, fixed in established positions by the corresponding locking devices 4 and 5. A transverse handle 6 is installed on the middle part 2 of the rod.

On the lower part 3 of the rod, a base 7 is hingedly mounted, on which a replaceable inspection mirror 8 and a backlight element 9 are installed. The position of the base 7 with the required angle of rotation relative to the rod is fixed by a locking device 10. A power source is installed in the middle part 2 of the telescopic rod (not shown ) for lighting element 9.

On the upper part 1 of the rod, installed in its middle part 2 with the ability to be pulled out of it and fixed by a locking device 4, there is a shoulder rest, which is made of two concave plates 11 hinged to each other, the connection angle of which changes and is fixed by an adjusting device consisting from a screw 12 with a rotating rim 13 mounted on it, pivotally connected by means of two pushers 14 with the back side of the concave plates 11, and a threaded boss 15 made on the top part 1 of the rod. When the screw 12 rotates, the rim 13 installed on it makes a longitudinal movement along the axis of the screw 12 and transmits a pushing force through the pushers 14 to the plates 11, while changing the angle between them and the diameter of the shoulder rest girth. To prevent spontaneous rotation of screw 12, a lock nut 16 is installed on it and screwed into the boss 15 until it stops.

The vehicle inspection device is used to illuminate and visualize images of hard-to-reach surfaces of motor vehicles during technical condition checks during control inspection of the bottom for damage to structural elements, the presence of leaks of fuel, oils and special liquids, as well as during inspection of the bottom of the vehicle for the presence of foreign objects (explosive devices and prohibited substances) at checkpoints.

An example of how the device works.

The procedure for preparing the device for its intended use includes the following operations:

mirror installation;

rod length adjustment;

setting the angle of rotation of the base;

shoulder rest adjustment.

When preparing the device for use, it is necessary to install a mirror 8 of the appropriate size on the base 7.

To adjust the length of the telescopic rod and the angle between the rod and the base, it is necessary to loosen the locking device 5 and the locking device 10. By moving the lower part 3 (pushing it out of the middle part 2 or inserting it into it), adjust the length of the telescopic rod, then tighten the locking device 5. Install the required angle value between the base 7 and the lower part 3 of the rod, then tighten the locking device 10.

To adjust the height of the shoulder rest, it is necessary to loosen the locking device 4. By moving the upper part 1 (pushing it out from the middle part 2 or inserting it into it), adjust the height of the shoulder rest, and then tighten the locking device 4. Set the diameter of the grip of the shoulder device by changing the angle between the plates 11 , to do this, loosen the lock nut 16 and rotate the screw 12 to achieve the desired diameter of the grip of the forearm plates 11, and then tighten the lock nut 16.

As a result, reliable fixation of the device in the hand of inspecting persons with different anthropometric parameters and the thickness of the outerwear sleeves is achieved, and as a result, improving the quality of the inspection.
