An apparatus and method for inspecting a structure are provided which include probes with sensing elements and are disposed proximate the opposite surfaces of a structure, where only one of the probes need be driven. A tracking probe may be magnetically coupled to a driven probe and move in coordination therewith. Ring magnets may be used in the driven and tracking probes to provide the magnetic coupling and align sensing elements disposed in the centers of the ring magnets. The probes include ball bearings such as ball and socket bearings for supporting the structure and maintaining the desired orientation and spacing of the probes relative to the structure. A fluid, such as water or pressurized air, may be used as a couplant between an ultrasonic transducer and the structure. A water column skirt may be used to with a probe employing ball bearings for support.

Improved apparatus, systems, and methods for inspecting a structure are provided that use a pedestal robot mounted on a rail system, a probe extension coupler, and an inspection probe capable of performing pulse echo ultrasonic inspection. A probe may also include sled appendages and an axial braking system to inspect over holes and off edges. A probe may also include an ultrasonic pulse echo transducer array for high rate inspection; the transducer array may be mounted in a bubbler shoe for individually coupling each of the transducers in the array. A rail system may also include an optical encoder for providing location information for the robot and axial braking system. A probe extension coupler presses the inspection probe against the structure for adjusting to changes in surface contours.

An apparatus and method for inspecting a structure are provided which include receiving probes and area transducers disposed proximate opposite surfaces of a structure under inspection. An area transducer uniformly emits ultrasonic signals over an area which may be scanned by a receiving probe without corresponding movement of the area transducer. An area transducer may be moved over the surface of the structure or repositioned to provide additional inspection area for the receiving probe to scan, including to provide for continuous inspection. Multiple area transducers may be used in sequence to provide for continuous inspection. Multiple receiving probes may be used, independently or collectively as an array, to increase inspection of a structure, taking advantage of the large area of ultrasonic signals emitted by one or more area transducers.

The invention discloses a tangential double vortex SCR mixer. The mixer comprises a flue, the cross section of the flue is equidistantly provided with a support beam, the support beam divides the cross section of the flue into a plurality of mixer unit zones, the mixer unit zones comprises a mixer unit, the mixer unit comprises a group of trapezoidal plates, a group of nozzles, the support beam and support rods, the bottom edges of the trapezoidal plates are connected with the support beam, one ends of the support rods are fixed on the trapezoidal plates, the other ends of the support rods are fixed on the inner wall of the flue in order to form a certain angle between the support rods and flue gas, each of the nozzles is arranged between adjacent trapezoidal plates, and the nozzles of the group share a gas supply pipeline. The mixer makes a reducing agent to reach a catalyst upper layer and to be uniformly distributed, so the ammonia escape rate of ammonia at an SCR outlet is reduced, and the denitration efficiency is improved, thereby problems of insufficient reconstruction space and insufficient ammonia mixing distance of service sets in a power plant are effectively solved.

The invention relates to a method for measuring the weigh of powder filled in a capsule through comparison. In the method, the difference between the weight of powder filled in a capsule and the weight of powder filled in a standard capsule is measured by comparing the capsule with a standard capsule, wherein the comparing process comprises the following steps: putting the capsule to be measured and the standard capsule into a container, charging high-pressure (N atmospheric pressure) gas in the container, quickly discharging the high-pressure gas in the container to make the container in the normal-pressure state after the high-pressure gas penetrates into the capsule to be measured and the standard capsule, measuring the length of the expanded capsule to be measured and the expanded standard capsule after the capsule to be measured and the standard capsule expand under the action of internal and external pressure difference, and measuring the difference between the weight of the powder filled in the capsule to be measured and the weight of the powder filled in the standard capsule according to a formula. The method can realize the capsule weight sorting just by measuring capsule length and the change of the capsule length, is simple and efficient, is easy to implement, has low requirement on equipment for implementing the method and is easy to popularize.

The invention relates to a vacuum movable housing plate for building. The vacuum movable housing plate for building sequentially comprises a side frame, a decorative layer, two reinforcing layers and a protective layer; the reinforcing layers arranged parallel to each other and the side frame enclose a closed vacuum layer, and an aspirating hole communicating with the vacuum layer is formed in the side frame; a sealing plug is detachably mounted in the aspirating hole; heating wires are arranged in the vacuum layer, and are powered by a power supply; the sealing plug comprises a plug cylinder and a plug end, the plug end and the aspirating hole are combined in an airtight mode, and the plug cylinder stretches into the vacuum layer; and a guide hole coaxial with the plug cylinder is formed in the plug end, and a one-way exhaust valve is mounted in the guide hole. The vacuum movable housing plate for building is light in structure and convenient to transport; the vacuum movable housing plate for building can effectively insulate against heat and keep warm, so that the warmth inside a movable board room is guaranteed, and the living comfort is effectively improved; and meanwhile, the vacuum movable housing plate for building has an effect of sound insulation, so that the quiet life of the staff is effectively guaranteed.

The invention provides a watch. The watch comprises a watch case and a movement arranged inside the watch case; the movement comprises a storage battery, an electronic driving mechanism and a pointermechanism; the storage battery supplies power for the electronic driving mechanism; the electronic driving mechanism drives the pointer mechanism; the watch further comprises a tourbillion demonstrating mechanism; and an observation port is disposed on a dial, and at least part of the tourbillion demonstrating mechanism is located in the observation port. According to the watch provided by the invention, the pointer mechanism is powered by the storage battery, so that the cost is low and the daily use is relatively convenient; meanwhile, the tourbillion demonstrating mechanism which is only used for viewing is arranged, and the pointer mechanism does not need to be driven, so that the complexity degree, the precision degree and the like of the tourbillion demonstrating mechanism can be greatly reduced, the corresponding cost can also be reduced, and the viewing function can be synchronously realized.
