[0052] Example 3

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the smearing assembly 6 comprises sponge wheels 61, wheel covers 62, connecting pipes 63 and soft rubber catheters 64;

[0049] Among them, the sponge wheel 61 is arranged as two, and the sponge wheels 61 are in contact with each other, the wheel cover 62 is arranged outside the sponge wheel 61, and the sponge wheel 61 and the wheel cover 62 are movably connected through the wheel shaft, the connecting pipe 63 is fixedly arranged at the end of the wheel cover 62, and the connecting pipe 63 is in conductive connection with the wheel cover 62, and the two wheel covers 62 are respectively fixedly connected with the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 through the connecting pipe 63;

[0051] When the ball mill cast iron pipe moves, the two sponge wheels 61 respectively contact with the inner and outer walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe, the booster pump draws the coupling agent into the connecting pipe 63 through the soft rubber catheter 64, and then the coupling agent is transmitted to the sponge wheel 61 through the connecting pipe 63, at this time, the ball mill cast iron pipe moves, the sponge wheel 61 rolls to uniformly smear the coupling agent on the inner and outer walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe, so that the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 are free of air between the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 and the wall of the ball mill cast iron pipe, which can further improve the detection accuracy of the detection equipment.

[0056] As shown in Figure 2 In use, the ball mill cast iron pipe is supported by the support 8, and the ball mill cast iron pipe is manually pushed to move, so that the pipe wall of the ball mill cast iron pipe is located in the space between the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4. At this time, the first ultrasonic probe head 3 detects the wall thickness of the ball mill cast iron pipe outside the wall, and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 detects the wall thickness of the ball mill cast iron pipe inside the wall. The average value of the multiple values measured by the inside and outside walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe is obtained, that is, the wall thickness of the ball mill cast iron pipe. The device detects the inside and outside walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe, and obtains the average value by comparing the detection values, so that the detection accuracy is high.

[0057] As described above, the average value calculation formula of the wall thickness of the ball mill cast iron pipe is:

[0058] Supposing that the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 are measured five times, then:

[0059] The first ultrasonic probe head 3 detects five values, which are set as X1, X2, X3, X4 and X5. The second ultrasonic probe head 4 detects five values, which are set as Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4 and Y5.

[0066] Considering that the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 are electronic detection, if the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 are damaged, the detection cannot continue, therefore, we optimize the structure of the connecting assembly 5 as follows:

[0067] Please refer to Figure 3As shown, the connecting assembly 5 comprises a first support 51, a second support 52, a slide rod 53 and a first spring 54, wherein the first support 51 and the second support 52 are fixedly connected with the first ultrasonic probe head 3 and the second ultrasonic probe head 4 respectively, the top end of the slide rod 53 is fixedly connected with the first support 51, the slide rod 53 is slidingly connected with the second support 52, the first spring 54 is sleeved outside the slide rod 53, and the two ends of the first spring 54 are fixedly connected with the first support 51 and the second support 52 respectively. According to the wall thickness of the ball mill cast iron pipe, the second ultrasonic probe head 4 can move at the bottom of the first ultrasonic probe head 3 through the slide rod 53, and after the second ultrasonic probe head 4 and the first ultrasonic probe head 3 are clamped on the inner and outer walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe, the first spring 54 pulls the second ultrasonic probe head 4 and the first ultrasonic probe head 3 to tightly adhere to the inner and outer walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe, so that the stability is good.

[0068] And one end of the first support 51 and the second support 52 is fixedly provided with a square sleeve 55 and a sliding plate 56 respectively, and the sliding plate 56 is movably embedded in the inside of the square sleeve 55. The inside of the square sleeve 55 is provided with a second spring 57, and the two ends of the second spring 57 are fixedly connected with the sliding plate 56 and the square sleeve 55 respectively. The side surface of the sliding plate 56 is further provided with a scale line 58, and under normal conditions, the bottom end of the square sleeve 55 corresponds to the zero scale of the scale line 58.

[0069] When the second ultrasonic probe head 4 and the first ultrasonic probe head 3 are movably clamped on the inner and outer walls of the ball mill cast iron pipe, the detection personnel can observe the position of the square sleeve 55 bottom edge on the scale line 58 to obtain a numerical value, which is used as a reference value, and when the second ultrasonic probe head 4 and the first ultrasonic probe head 3 are damaged, the reference value can be used as the pipe wall thickness value.

[0070] It should be noted that in this text, if there are relationship terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between them. Moreover, the terms "include", "contain" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or equipment including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, article or equipment. Without more limitation, the element defined by the statement "including a…" does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or equipment including the element.

[0071] The above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing examples can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalent features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
