Abstract

The invention relates to a pipe or duct probe (10) for insertion into a pipe (90) or into a duct. According to the invention, the pipe or duct probe (10) comprises: at least one motor (15) which is a direct current motor, at least one motor shaft (18), at least one working means (30, 30’, 30’’) connected to the motor shaft (18), a connection device (40) for connecting the motor (15) to a cable (75), and at least one centring device (50) connected to a housing (20). The centring device is at least in part formed by a plurality of resilient elements (55) spaced apart evenly in a circumferential direction of the housing, the resilient elements are formed in a manner similar to turbine blades. The centring device of the current invention allows uniform coating/cleaning of a pipe or duct and more flexible use such as guiding the probe through curved pipes or ducts.
