A pipeline inspection device, including a rotatable drum housing a cable, where the cable is extendable into a pipe, a camera positioned on an end of the cable, and a hub housing electrical components of the pipeline inspection device and including a battery housing. A stand includes a mounting assembly having a first portion rotatably supporting the drum and a second portion supporting the hub within an interior of the drum, the second portion including a core, where the hub is removably coupled to the mounting assembly via the core. The hub is removably coupled to the mounting assembly by a first engagement member on the hub and a second engagement member on the core.

A pipe inspection system including a camera head, a push-cable, and a controller platform for use in inspecting pipes or other cavities is disclosed.

Camera heads and associated systems, methods, and devices for inspecting and/or mapping pipes or cavities are disclosed. A camera head may be coupled to a push-cable and may include one or more image sensors to capture images and/or videos from interior of the pipe or cavity. One or more multi-axis sensors may be disposed in the camera head to sense data corresponding to movement of the camera head within the pipe or cavity. The images and/or videos captured by the image sensors may be used in conjunction with the data sensed by the multi-axis sensors to generate information pertaining to the pipe or cavity may be generated.

An in-line inspection tool for a pipeline comprises a body defining an axis, a sensor module coupled to the body, and a drive cup coupled to the body. The drive cup includes an outer surface with a plurality of axial channels, each of the axial channels including at least one bridge positioned therein that extends circumferentially across the channel.

Systems and methods for determining cross-section profiles of underground fluid conveyance structures involves a memory configured to store a profile scan dataset of at least one pipe and at least one pipe template. A processor is configured to compare the profile scan dataset to one or more templates. Profile deviations in a pipe profile are determined using the comparison. A location and an areal measurement of the profile deviations is determined. A user interface is configured to present the profile deviations to a user.

A watertight testing device includes a cylindrical core fit into a pipe joint part, a first seal member for sealing between the outer surface of the core and the inner surface of one pipe, a second seal member for sealing between the outer surface of the core and the inner surface of the other pipe, a first pressing member for pressing and compressing the first seal member into a first seal-member insertion space, a second pressing member for pressing and compressing the second seal member into a second seal-member insertion space, a moving device for moving the first and second pressing members in a pipe axial direction, and a test fluid feeder for feeding a test fluid into a test space.

An apparatus for automated inspection or maintenance is provided. The apparatus includes a dual slider mechanism for deploying a probe. The dual slider mechanism comprises: a frame; a probe slider configured to attach the probe; a probe linear guide coupled to the frame and configured to guide the probe slider and attached probe in a linear direction; a spring having one end attached to the probe slider; a spring slider attached to another end of the spring; and a spring linear guide coupled to the frame and configured to guide the spring slider and attached spring in the linear direction, in order to guide the probe slider and attached probe in the linear direction along the probe linear guide using the guided spring.

Example aspects of a pipe repair stent, a pipe repair device, and a method for repairing a pipe are disclosed. The pipe repair stent can comprise a sealing layer comprising a flexible and compressible repair material; and a spring, wherein the sealing layer is wrapped around a circumference of the spring; wherein the stent is configurable in an expanded configuration and a compressed configuration, the spring biasing the stent to the expanded configuration.

A pipeline inspection device, including a rotatable drum housing a cable, where the cable is extendable into a pipe, a camera positioned on an end of the cable, and a hub housing electrical components of the pipeline inspection device and including a battery housing. A stand includes a mounting assembly having a first portion rotatably supporting the drum and a second portion supporting the hub within an interior of the drum, the second portion including a core, where the hub is removably coupled to the mounting assembly via the core. The hub is removably coupled to the mounting assembly by a first engagement member on the hub and a second engagement member on the core.

Provided is a device, method, and inspection system for collecting data in a fluid conduit. The inspection system includes a pig, wherein the pig is defined by at least a front end and a read end, the rear end being distally opposed to the front end along a longitudinal axis, a mount assembly secured to the rear end of the pig; and at least one sensor device removably coupled to the mount assembly.
