Method and apparatus for measuring length of conduit and for diagnosing inside of conduit.

摘要

A method of measuring a length of a conduit comprises the steps of: supplying air into said conduit to insert a filamentary body into the conduit by flow of the air; detecting arrival of a forward end of the filamentary body at an outlet of the conduit; and measuring the length of the conduit from the length of the filamentary body inserted into the conduit. An apparatus for measuring a length of a conduit, comprises an air supply device for supplying air into the conduit; a filamentary body including a wire and a plurality of elastic large-diameter members attached to the wire; and a device for detecting that a forward end of the filamentary body arrives at an outlet end of the conduit, wherein the length of the conduit is measured from the length of the filamentary body inserted into the conduit.
