Ultrasonic flaw detection, as an important detection technology in the production of seamless steel pipe, has become an important indicator for industry screening.

[0003] In the prior art, when ultrasonic flaw detection is performed on seamless steel pipes, a human handheld ultrasonic probe needs to be moved. However, this detection method is not only inefficient, but also overly dependent on manual experience, resulting in large errors and low accuracy in the detection results. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present application provides a seamless steel pipe flaw detection device, which has the function of automatically performing ultrasonic flaw detection on the steel pipe, improving the flaw detection efficiency, and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the detection results.

When the part of the steel pipe to be inspected moves into the rotating ring, the ultrasonic flaw detector performs flaw detection on the steel pipe, and drives the rotating ring to rotate through the driving mechanism, so that the ultrasonic flaw detector rotates around the outer circumference of the steel pipe for detection, thereby reducing the trouble of manual flaw detection and improving the efficiency of flaw detection and the accuracy of detection results. When the inspected end of the steel pipe gradually passes through the fixed ring, the steel pipe is assisted in transportation by the feeding mechanism on the support frame on the other side to ensure the stability of the steel pipe feeding and transportation.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the first electric push rod is started to drive the brush roller to move toward the center position of the rotating ring, so that the bristles on the outer circumference of the brush roller can contact the outer wall of the steel pipe.

During the rotation of the fan blades, the external ambient air is sucked in through the open end of the sleeve and blown into the tube body. The gas blown into the tube body is finally ejected through the air nozzle.

[0030] The steel pipe is placed on the support frame 5 on the side of the rotating ring 21 away from the fixed ring 2, and the steel pipe is transported by the feeding mechanism 6 arranged thereon. When the part to be inspected on the steel pipe moves into the rotating ring 21, the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 inspects the steel pipe, and starts the first motor 41 to drive the first gear 42 to rotate. Under the meshing cooperation between the first gear 42 and the first gear ring 22, the rotating ring 21 drives the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 to rotate, so that the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 rotates around the steel pipe to perform flaw detection on the outer circumference of the steel pipe. When the entire steel pipe gradually passes through the rotating ring 21, the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 completes the automatic flaw detection work of the entire steel pipe. At this time, the inspected steel pipe can be transported by the feeding mechanism 6 located on the side of the fixed ring 2 away from the rotating ring 21.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the feeding mechanism 6 includes a driving motor 61, a chain 62, a plurality of conveying rollers 63 and a plurality of sprockets 64. The plurality of conveying rollers 63 are horizontally rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 5. The plurality of conveying rollers 63 are coaxially evenly spaced along the length direction of the support frame 5. The diameters of the two ends of the conveying rollers 63 gradually decrease toward the middle position. The driving motor 61 is installed on the outer wall of the support frame 5. The driving motor 61 is a brake motor. The output end of the driving motor 61 is coaxially fixed to one end of a conveying roller 63 near the end of the support frame 5. The plurality of sprockets 64 are coaxially fixed to the outer walls of the ends of the plurality of conveying rollers 63 away from the driving motor 61. The chain 62 is sleeved on the outside of the plurality of sprockets 64. The chain 62 drives the plurality of sprockets 64 to work in conjunction.

[0032] Starting the drive motor 61 can drive the conveying roller 63 coaxially arranged with the drive motor 61 to rotate. With the cooperation of multiple sprockets 64 and chains 62, multiple conveying rollers 63 rotate synchronously, and the steel pipes on the conveying rollers 63 are pushed forward by the friction force, thereby conveniently realizing the feeding and transportation of the steel pipes.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pair of hydraulic push rods 14 are vertically installed on the base 1 at positions corresponding to the fixed ring 2 , and the output ends of the pair of hydraulic push rods 14 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed ring 2 .

[0034] Starting the hydraulic push rod 14 can drive the fixed ring 2 and the rotating ring 21 to move in the vertical direction, and adjust the center positions of the fixed ring 2 and the rotating ring 21 so that steel pipes of different diameters can remain coaxial with the rotating ring 21 when passing through the rotating ring 21 for flaw detection, so that the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 is at an equal distance from the surface of the steel pipe when moving along the outer circumference of the steel pipe, which is convenient for flaw detection of steel pipes of different diameters.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a pair of frames 11 respectively located on the top of the two support frames 5 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the base 1, and second electric push rods 12 are vertically installed on the top walls of the two frames 11. The output end of the second electric push rod 12 is rotatably connected to a limiting roller 13, and the diameter of the limiting roller 13 at both ends gradually decreases toward the middle position. The second electric push rod 12 can drive the limiting roller 13 to move downward and be pressed on the steel pipe.

[0036] When the steel pipe is being transported, the second electric push rod 12 can be started to drive the limiting roller 13 to move downward, so that the limiting roller 13 is pressed on the top of the steel pipe to limit the steel pipe, thereby reducing the possibility of the steel pipe being offset during transportation and improving the stability of the steel pipe during transportation.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a first electric push rod 7 is installed on the end surface of the rotating ring 21 away from the fixed ring 2 through a connecting plate 23; the output end of the first electric push rod 7 is arranged radially along the rotating ring 21 and points to the axis of the rotating ring 21, and a concave frame 71 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first electric push rod 7, and a second motor 73 is installed on the outer wall of the concave frame 71, and a brush roller 72 extending into the concave frame 71 is coaxially fixed to the output end of the second motor 73, and the brush roller 72 is rotatably matched with the inner wall of the concave frame 71, and bristles 721 are arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the brush roller 72.

[0038] During the flaw detection process of the steel pipe, the first electric push rod 7 can be started to drive the brush roller 72 to approach the steel pipe, causing the bristles 721 on the outer wall of the brush roller 72 to contact the outer wall of the steel pipe. Starting the second motor 73 can drive the brush roller 72 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating ring 21, the brush roller 72 rotates while moving around the outer circumference of the steel pipe, causing the bristles 721 to clean the outer surface of the steel pipe to be inspected along the outer circumference of the steel pipe, remove impurities and dust adhering to the surface of the steel pipe, thereby reducing the possibility that impurities on the outer wall of the steel pipe will affect the detection results.

[0039] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a tube body 8 coaxial with the brush roller 72 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the concave frame 71, and a plurality of circular tubes 81 are fixedly connected to the two outer radial side walls of the tube body 8, and the plurality of circular tubes 81 are evenly spaced along the axial direction of the tube body 8. A first transmission assembly 82 that can drive the brush roller 72 to drive the tube body 8 to rotate is provided on the outer wall of the end of the tube body 8 close to the driving motor 61. The first transmission assembly 82 includes a second gear ring 821, a second gear 822 and a third gear 823. The second gear ring 821 is coaxially fixed to the outer wall of the end of the tube body 8 close to the driving motor 61, and the second gear 822 is coaxially fixed to the outer wall of the end of the brush roller 72 close to the driving motor 61. The third gear 823 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the concave frame 71 located in the middle of the second gear ring 821 and the second gear 822, and the third gear 823 is respectively meshed with the second gear 822 and the second gear ring 821 located on both sides thereof.

[0040] During the rotation of the brush roller 72, the meshing cooperation of the second gear 822, the third gear 823 and the second gear ring 821 drives the tube body 8 to rotate, causing the circular tube 81 provided on the outer wall of the tube body 8 to rotate and hit the rotating bristles 721, so that impurities and dust adhering to the bristles 721 fall off, causing the bristles 721 to have a good cleaning effect on the outer wall of the steel pipe.

[0041] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a plurality of circular tubes 81 are connected to the interior of the tube body 8, and a plurality of air nozzles 811 connected to the circular tube 81 are arranged on the two radial outer walls of each circular tube 81. A sleeve 83 sleeved on the outside of the tube body 8 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the concave frame 71 away from the second motor 73. The sleeve 83 is coaxially rotatable with the tube body 8. The end of the sleeve 83 away from the tube body 8 is open. A filter is installed on the inner wall of the open end of the sleeve 83. A rotating shaft 84 is coaxially rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 83. A fan blade 841 located in the sleeve 83 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 84. A second transmission assembly 85 located outside the sleeve 83 is arranged at the end of the rotating shaft 84 away from the fan blade 841. The second transmission assembly 85 can make the brush roller 72 drive the rotating shaft 84 to rotate. The second transmission assembly 85 includes a first pulley 851, a second pulley 852 and a belt 853. The first pulley 851 is coaxially fixed to the outer wall of the end of the brush roller 72 away from the second motor 73. The second pulley 852 is coaxially fixed to the outer wall of the end of the rotating shaft 84 extending outside the sleeve 83. The diameter of the second pulley 852 is smaller than that of the first pulley 851. The belt 853 is tensioned and sleeved outside the first pulley 851 and the second pulley 852. The belt 853 links the first pulley 851 and the second pulley 852.

[0042] During the rotation process, the brush roller 72 drives the rotating shaft 84 and the fan blades 841 to rotate through the cooperation of the first pulley 851, the second pulley 852 and the belt 853. During the rotation process of the fan blades 841, external air is sucked in through the open end of the sleeve 83 and blown into the tube body 8 in the form of air flow. The air flow in the tube body 8 is then ejected through the air nozzle 811 on the circular tube 81. When the circular tube 81 hits the bristles 721, the gas ejected from the air nozzle 811 has a blowing and cleaning effect on the bristles 721, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the bristles 721.

[0043] Working principle: The steel pipe is placed on the support frame 5 on the side where the rotating ring 21 is located, and the steel pipe is supported by multiple conveying rollers 63 arranged on the support frame 5, and the second electric push rod 12 is started to drive the limit roller 13 to move down and press on the top of the steel pipe, and the driving motor 61 is started. Under the cooperation of multiple sprockets 64 and chains 62, multiple conveying rollers 63 rotate, and the steel pipe is pushed forward by the friction force and gradually approaches the rotating ring 21. During the steel pipe conveying process, the limit roller 13 limits and guides the steel pipe to reduce the possibility of the steel pipe being offset; when the part of the steel pipe to be detected moves to the rotating ring 21 When the first gear 42 is engaged with the first gear 42, the rotating ring 21 drives the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 to rotate, so that the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 rotates around the steel pipe to perform flaw detection on the outer circumference of the steel pipe. When the entire steel pipe gradually passes through the rotating ring 21, the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 completes the automatic flaw detection of the entire steel pipe. The feeding mechanism 6 located on the side of the fixed ring 2 away from the rotating ring 21 can be used to transport the steel pipe after the inspection. During the process of feeding and conveying the steel pipe for flaw detection, the first electric push rod 7 can be started to drive the brush roller 72 to approach the steel pipe, so that the bristles 721 are in contact with the outer wall of the steel pipe, and the second motor 73 is started to drive the brush roller 72 to rotate. When the rotating ring 21 drives the ultrasonic flaw detector 3 to rotate, the bristles 721 will move along the outer circumference of the steel pipe to clean the surface of the steel pipe to be inspected, remove impurities adhering to the surface of the steel pipe, reduce the possibility of impurities on the surface of the steel pipe affecting the detection results, and improve the accuracy and reliability of the flaw detection results.

[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
