Description

Technical Field

[0002] Rail welded joints are a crucial component of seamless railway systems, and their internal quality is crucial for ensuring the safe operation of high-speed railways. During rail welding production, one method for assessing joint internal quality is ultrasonic testing. Every joint undergoes ultrasonic testing to ensure that no defects exceed specified standards. Only joints that meet standard requirements after ultrasonic testing are released for use.

[0003] In the prior art, a small scanning device is used to perform ultrasonic inspection on welded joints. The scanning device can be used for factory or base welds, and can perform K-type scanning on the rail head, rail waist and rail bottom. Specifically, three ultrasonic probes are installed on the front and rear sides of the scanning frame of the scanning device, and the relative positions of the probes on each side are fixed. The transmission mechanism moves the probes on the front and rear sides in a certain positional relationship, so that the ultrasonic waves emitted by the probe on one side are directed to the weld of the rail joint and then reflected back to the probe on the other side. The signal received by each probe can be recognized by the data acquisition equipment and converted into a digital signal to be displayed on the computer software in a way that can identify defects. Although the scanning device can basically meet the requirements of the standard, this simple scanning frame has the disadvantages of small detection coverage, low detection efficiency and low degree of automation.

This not only greatly reduces the labor intensity of the operator, but also greatly improves the detection efficiency.

[0046] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the first and second detection trajectories overlap. Specifically, the mobile support 120 moves a certain distance along the length of the rail 200 to form the first detection trajectory.

[0047] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, when moving along the first detection track, the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 simultaneously performs ultrasonic detection on the rail head, top surface and side surface of one side of the rail 200.

[0048] In an optional example of this embodiment, the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 includes three first ultrasonic probe groups 130: a rail head first ultrasonic probe group, a top surface first ultrasonic probe group, and a bottom surface first ultrasonic probe group. With this structure, the movable bracket 12 can simultaneously perform ultrasonic testing on the rail head, top surface, and side surfaces with a single movement, significantly improving testing efficiency.

[0049] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, when moving along the second detection track, the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 simultaneously performs ultrasonic detection on the rail head, top surface and side surface of the other side of the rail 200.

When the cylinder is extended, the ultrasonic probe is brought into close proximity with the rail 200. With this structure, the specific position of each ultrasonic probe can be adjusted by the extension distance of the cylinder, allowing the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 to adapt to rails of different specifications.

[0053] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the ultrasonic signal obtained by ultrasonic detection is displayed as a readable digital signal by a signal processing device.

[0054] Specifically, the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 includes a signal processor, which is electrically connected to the first ultrasonic probe group 130 and the second ultrasonic probe group 140. The signal processor receives ultrasonic signals from the first ultrasonic probe group 130 and the second ultrasonic probe group 140 and processes them into readable digital signals.

[0055] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 includes a data processing unit, which is used to store and process the digital signal derived by the signal processor and display it.

[0056] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6-6 Now, in conjunction with an embodiment, the working principle and specific implementation process of the ultrasonic flaw detection method for rail weld joints and the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 proposed in the present invention are described in detail.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, the ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 comprises three first ultrasonic probe groups 130, three second ultrasonic probe groups 140 (the first transmitting ultrasonic probe 131, the first receiving ultrasonic probe 132, the second transmitting ultrasonic probe 141 and the second receiving ultrasonic probe 142 are all K1 oblique probes), a cylinder 150, a fixed bracket 110, a movable bracket 120 and a signal processor ( Figure 1 It consists of a data processing unit (not shown) and a data processing unit (software).

[0058] The fixed bracket 110 and the movable bracket 120 serve as the main rigid structures for installing the ultrasonic probes and the cylinder 150 , and can drive the ultrasonic probes and the cylinder 150 to approach the inspected rail and perform linear reciprocating motion along the width direction of the mounting bracket.

[0059] The first transmitting ultrasonic probe 131 and the second transmitting ultrasonic probe 141 are used to transmit ultrasonic signals and transmit the signals to a signal processing device. The first receiving ultrasonic probe 132 and the second receiving ultrasonic probe 142 are used to receive ultrasonic signals and transmit the signals to a signal processor. The signal processor can process the signals into digital signals readable by software, which are ultimately displayed by software (data processing unit).

[0060] Figure 2 The main dimensions of the cross section of the rail 200 to be tested are shown in FIG. 1 . In this embodiment, the rail height is 176 mm, the rail head width is 71 mm, and the rail bottom width is 150 mm. Figure 3 、 Figure 4 , the calculation process of each probe layout size is as follows:

[0061] 1) Design of rail top probe spacing, spacing between the first receiving ultrasonic probe 132 (A4) and the second receiving ultrasonic probe 142 (B4), spacing between the first transmitting ultrasonic probe 131 (A3) and the second transmitting ultrasonic probe 141 (B3): The ultrasonic propagation at the rail top bounces twice, see Figure 4 Among them, the rail height (H) = 176mm; the ultrasonic emission angle is 45°; the probe length (L) = 20mm; in order to make the ultrasonic scanning route cover the rail height of 176mm, the maximum center distance between the two probes B3 and B4 or A3 and A4 is required to be 2H×tan45°=352mm, and the minimum distance L=20mm; at this time, Figure 1 The center distance between the probes of the movable bracket 120 is: H×tan45°-L / 2=166mm, and the center distance between the probes of the fixed bracket 110 is: 2×H×tan45°+H×tan45°-L / 2+L=538mm.

[0062] 2) The ultrasonic propagation of the first ultrasonic probe group at the rail head (the second ultrasonic probe group at the rail head) and the first ultrasonic probe group at the rail bottom (the second ultrasonic probe group at the rail bottom) is reflected once. Figure 5-1 to Figure 5-6 The distance between each transmitting probe and receiving probe in each probe group can be obtained using the same calculation method.

[0063] According to the calculation results of each first ultrasonic probe group 130 and each second ultrasonic probe group 140, a probe layout dimension diagram is obtained, see Figure 3 、 Figure 4 .

[0064] The ultrasonic flaw detection method and ultrasonic flaw detection device 100 for rail welded joints are implemented as follows: All probes on the fixed bracket 110 and the movable bracket 120 are driven by the corresponding cylinders 150 to stick to the surface of the rail 200 to be tested. At this time, the position relationship of each probe is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the first receiving ultrasonic probe 132 (A2, A4, A6) and the second transmitting ultrasonic probe 141 (B2, B4, B6) mounted on the fixed support 110 scan rightward as the flaw detection frame is driven; the first transmitting ultrasonic probe 131 (A1, A3, A5) and the second receiving ultrasonic probe 142 (B1, B3, B5) mounted on the movable support 120 scan leftward as the movable support 120 is driven until the second receiving ultrasonic probe 142 (B4) and the second transmitting ultrasonic probe 141 (B3) touch each other.

[0065] This detection process is only used for the B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 and B6 probes for flaw detection on the left side of the rail 200. At this time, the equipment can obtain the flaw detection signal on the left side of the rail 200. The ultrasonic scanning route diagram of the ultrasonic probe in this process is as follows Figure 4 As shown, the scanning data on the left side is obtained. After the above action is completed, the mobile bracket 120 changes the moving direction. At this time, the A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A6 probes used for flaw detection on the right side of the rail 200 are started. At this time, the ultrasonic scanning route map of the ultrasonic probe is as follows: Figure 6-1 to Figure 6-6 shown.

[0066] After the movable bracket 120 has gone through a forward and reverse movement cycle, each ultrasonic probe completes the collection of left and right flaw detection data, that is, the left and right flaw detection of the weld joint 210 is completed.

[0067] The detailed explanations of the above-mentioned embodiments are intended only to explain the present invention so as to facilitate a better understanding of the present invention. However, these descriptions cannot be interpreted as limiting the present invention for any reason. In particular, the various features described in different embodiments may also be arbitrarily combined with each other to form other embodiments. Unless otherwise clearly described, these features should be understood to be applicable to any embodiment and are not limited to the described embodiments.
