Abstract

The invention discloses an airborne Rayleigh wave and Lamb wave robot for detecting complex system conditions in a pipeline. The robot realizes remote control through a bidirectional wireless link. Meanwhile, the robot can autonomously advance and retreat in the pipeline, and an operator can check complex conditions in the pipeline with the assistance of the camera. The robot is provided with a multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm, the executing tail end of the mechanical arm is provided with a Rayleigh wave and Lamb wave transmitting and receiving array assembly, and after the Rayleigh wave and Lamb wave transmitting and receiving array assembly makes contact with the pipe wall, Lamb waves and Rayleigh waves are excited and received on the pipe wall through piezoelectric ceramics on an assembly probe. The robotic arm may be rotationally deployed, extending the probe at the end of execution to the pipe wall where it is to be inspected, for example, placed at the circumferential weld of the pipe, and then rotated about the weld to provide 100% weld inspection. Detection data acquired by the robot can be stored in a vehicle-mounted computer and processed in real time, and the flaw and crack conditions of the closed pipeline are analyzed or transmitted to an external computer for large-scale operational analysis.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an airborne Rayleigh wave and Lamb wave robot for detecting complex system conditions inside a pipeline, in particular to a robot loaded with various environmental sensors, Rayleigh wave and Lamb wave excitation and receiving devices, a mechanical arm and A pipe inspection robot with an onboard computer. Background technique [0002] Pipelines, especially long-distance oil pipelines, are usually assembled and welded segment by segment. The ends of each pipe section are put together seam-welded for a girth weld. The quality of these girth welds is variable as they are often welded under extreme conditions, such as on barges where the pipeline is laid or in the desert, while over a long period of use, various complex systems are formed inside the pipeline, including imperfections in the pipe wall / The evolution of cracks, the qualitative change of welds, the nonlinear changes of temperature and humidity, acidity and alkalinity,...
