[0047] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with examples and drawings. The illustrative implementation scheme of the present application and its description are only used to explain the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0048] In the first aspect, the present application provides a magnetic intelligent nondestructive testing device for steel lining welds in nuclear power plants, such as Figure 1~Figure 2 As shown, the magnetic suction type intelligent nondestructive testing device for steel lining welds of nuclear power plants includes a trolley body 1, a controller 2, a sealing mechanism 3, a vacuum device 4, a spraying mechanism 5 and an image acquisition mechanism 6.
[0049] The trolley body 1 may include a base plate and running wheels arranged on the base plate. The base plate may be made of aluminum alloy sheet metal. A trolley body shell is arranged on the base plate to protect the structure, electrical components, etc. installed on the base plate. A driving mechanism and a power supply 7 are provided on the base plate. The power supply 7 may be set as a lithium battery. The driving mechanism cooperates with the running wheels to drive the running wheels, thereby realizing the movement of the trolley body 1. In actual implementation, the driving mechanism may be configured as a servo driving mechanism to ensure the movement accuracy of the trolley body 1, wherein the servo driver in the driving mechanism is connected to the controller 2 to be controlled by the controller 2 to work, and the servo driver cooperates with the servo motor to drive the running wheels to rotate; a magnetic attraction mechanism 8 is arranged on the trolley body 1, and the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 is controlled by the controller 2 to work, and the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 can be applied to the steel lining in the working state. The structure is attracted so that the running wheel is pressed on the steel lining wall panel structure. In actual implementation, the running wheel can be configured as a rubber wheel to prevent the steel lining wall panel parent material structure from being worn or scratched. At the same time, there is a large friction coefficient between the running wheel and the steel lining wall panel, so as to prevent the trolley body 1 from slipping during the movement. The position of the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 on the trolley body 1 is configured so that when the running wheel of the trolley body 1 contacts the steel lining wall panel, there is a gap between the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 and the steel lining wall panel, that is, the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 does not contact the steel lining wall panel, so as to prevent the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 from wearing or scratching the steel lining wall panel parent material structure. At the same time, no friction resistance is generated between the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 and the steel lining wall panel, and the traction force required for the trolley body 1 to move is smaller, which can save electric energy. Among them, the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 can use the strongest nepheline iron boron magnet as the magnetic unit, and an aluminum alloy shell is provided on the outside of the magnetic unit for protection.
[0050] The controller 2 is arranged on the trolley body 1, and the controller 2 is powered by a lithium battery. The lithium battery can adopt a DC48V, 20AH power supply. The lithium battery is detachably connected to the base plate for easy replacement and maintenance. The controller 2 can be configured as a programmable controller 2, a single-chip microcomputer, an embedded system, a field programmable gate array, etc. In actual implementation, the controller 2 can be configured as a microprocessor.
[0051] The sealing mechanism 3 is movably connected to the trolley body 1 and is controlled by the controller 2. The sealing mechanism 3 is used to provide a sealed environment for the foaming agent in the area to be inspected. The sealing mechanism 3 has a sealing groove. After the sealing mechanism 3 is controlled by the controller 2, the foaming agent in the area to be inspected can be enclosed in the sealing groove. In actual implementation, the sealing mechanism 3 may include a vacuum cover and a cylinder. The vacuum cover is connected to the bottom plate of the trolley body 1 through the cylinder. The cylinder is equipped with an action solenoid valve. The action solenoid valve is controlled by the controller 2 to act so that the cylinder can The vacuum hood is driven to move, and the internal groove body of the vacuum hood serves as a sealing groove body. When the vacuum hood is driven to move by the cylinder, the vacuum hood can enclose the foaming agent in the area to be inspected in the hood mouth so that the foaming agent is in a sealed environment. Taking into account the unevenness and curved surface structure at the weld, a flexible sealing body can be provided at the hood mouth of the vacuum hood. For example, a vacuum adsorption sponge can be installed on the hood mouth, so that the hood mouth can have sufficient fit with the uneven steel lining wall panel, thereby ensuring the sealing inside the vacuum hood after the vacuum hood contacts the steel lining wall panel and the steel lining weld.
[0052] The vacuum device 4 is arranged on the trolley body 1 and connected with the sealing groove body. The vacuum device 4 is controlled by the controller 2 to suck the air in the sealing groove body. Specifically, the vacuum device 4 can be configured as a vacuum tank, which is connected to the vacuum cover in the sealing mechanism 3 so that the sealing groove body is connected to the internal space of the vacuum tank. A solenoid valve controlled by the controller 2 and an adjustable pressure maintaining valve are arranged between the vacuum tank and the vacuum cover. A pressure gauge connected to the controller 2 is arranged in the vacuum cover or between the vacuum cover and the solenoid valve to monitor the air pressure in the vacuum cover in real time.
[0053] The spray mechanism 5 is arranged on the trolley body 1 and is controlled by the controller 2 to spray the foaming agent. The spray mechanism 5 can adopt a sprayer commonly used in the prior art. The spray mechanism 5 has a foaming agent storage tank for storing the foaming agent and a spray gun connected to the foaming agent storage tank. A hollow gravity ball negative pressure liquid suction system can be arranged inside the foaming agent, and an electromagnetic valve controlled by the action of the controller 2 can be arranged between the spray gun and the foaming agent storage tank.
[0054] The image acquisition mechanism 6 is arranged on the trolley body 1 and is controlled by the controller 2 to collect the display image of the foaming agent bubbles in the inspection area. The image acquisition mechanism 6 can be configured as a high-definition camera. In actual implementation, the vacuum cover can be configured as a transparent material to facilitate the image acquisition mechanism 6 to easily obtain the display image of the foaming agent bubbles, wherein the vacuum cover can be constructed to be transparent as a whole or partially transparent. In actual implementation, the number of image acquisition mechanisms 6 can be configured as two, one of which is used to collect the display image of the foaming agent bubbles, and the other can be connected to the bottom plate through a pan-tilt head to facilitate observation of the situation around the trolley body 1, realizing the automatic obstacle avoidance function. At the same time, when the pressure gauge is arranged outside the vacuum cover, the image acquisition mechanism 6 can monitor the pressure gauge to check whether the display value of the pressure gauge is consistent with the value fed back to the controller 2 by the pressure gauge.
[0055] The magnetic intelligent nondestructive testing device for steel lining welds of nuclear power plants provided in the embodiment of the present application can enable the trolley body 1 to walk on a high-altitude curved surface by arranging a magnetic attraction mechanism 8 on the trolley body 1, and then control the sealing mechanism 3 and the vacuum equipment 4 through the controller 2, so that the foaming agent applied by the spraying mechanism 5 can be in a vacuum environment, and finally the image acquisition mechanism 6 is used to capture the image of the foaming agent and identify the leakage bubbles in the image, so that it can automatically determine whether there is a leakage point at the location, thereby realizing automatic detection of weld leakage; compared with the usual detection method, it saves human resources, avoids high-altitude operations, and greatly reduces the operation risk. The image acquisition mechanism 6 can continuously observe the foaming agent bubbles, there is no problem of visual fatigue, and the credibility of the detection result is stable and the traceability is strong.
[0056] In some optional embodiments, a marking mechanism 9 is provided on the trolley body 1, and the marking mechanism 9 is controlled by the controller 2 to print a mark on the target object; the marking mechanism 9 mainly marks the corresponding position of the steel lining weld after the leakage point is detected, and the marking mechanism 9 can be configured as a laser printing device in the prior art, and can also be configured as a painting device; thereby, the staff can conveniently locate the leakage point when performing weld repair work, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0057] In some optional embodiments, the marking mechanism 9 is slidably connected to the trolley body 1, and the marking mechanism 9 is controlled by the controller 2 to slide on the trolley body 1. When a leak point is detected, the marking mechanism 9 can be controlled by the controller 2 to slide on the trolley body 1, so that the marking mechanism 9 can be aligned with the leak point, which is convenient for the staff to manually locate the specific position of the leak point.
[0058] In some optional embodiments, the magnetic attraction mechanism 8 is configured as a permanent magnet, which is independent of electrical energy and has a stable adsorption effect, thereby preventing the entire device from falling due to insufficient power.
[0059] In the second aspect, the embodiment of the present application provides a magnetic intelligent non-destructive testing method for a nuclear power plant steel lining weld, which is implemented based on any one of the magnetic intelligent non-destructive testing devices for a nuclear power plant steel lining weld described in the first aspect, and can be referred to Figure 3 , including the following:
[0060] S1. Apply foaming agent to the area of the weld to be inspected.
[0061] The trolley body 1 can move on the steel lining wall panel in a stepping manner, that is, the trolley body 1 moves a fixed distance each time. Specifically, during two movements of the trolley, the overlapping distance of the two areas to be inspected is not less than 50 mm. During the movement of the trolley, the spray mechanism 5 can be controlled by the controller 2 to spray the foaming agent therein on the area to be inspected on the steel lining weld. The foaming agent can be a nuclear-grade special type of foaming agent, namely HJ-Nulong leak detection foaming agent.
[0062] S2. Seal the area to be inspected so that the foaming agent is in a sealed space.
[0063] When the amount of foaming agent in the area to be inspected meets the requirement, the controller 2 controls the sealing mechanism 3 to make the vacuum cover fit the steel lining wall and apply a certain pressure to ensure that the foaming agent is in the sealed space.
[0064] S3, evacuating the sealed space and collecting images of the bubbles of the foaming agent in the sealed space at intervals.
[0065] The vacuum device 4 is controlled by the controller 2 to make the vacuum tank evacuate the sealed space. During the evacuation process, the pressure in the vacuum cover is monitored by the pressure gauge. When the pressure gauge index reaches -0.02Mpa, the adjustable pressure-maintaining valve is controlled by the controller 2 to maintain the pressure of the vacuum cover for 10s, and then the vacuum cover is continuously evacuated. When the pressure gauge index reaches -0.06Mpa, the adjustable pressure-maintaining valve is controlled by the controller 2 to maintain the pressure of the vacuum cover for 30s. During the evacuation process, the image acquisition mechanism 6 continuously acquires the image display of the foaming agent bubbles. In actual implementation, the image of the foaming agent in the vacuum cover can be acquired at a frame rate of 30fps, and the acquired image can be stored in the controller 2 as a JPEG format file.
[0066] S4. Identify leakage bubbles in the foaming agent bubble display image and locate the weld leakage point based on the position of the leakage bubble.
[0067] Specific:
[0068] S41, preprocessing the continuous frame foaming agent bubble display image, including removing noise by using median filtering and enhancing image contrast by using an adaptive threshold algorithm. Preprocessing the image by using median filtering and an adaptive threshold algorithm can effectively improve the clarity and feature recognizability of the continuous frame foaming agent bubble display image, and can provide higher quality input data, thereby supporting more accurate algorithm decisions and more efficient image processing processes. Among them, the image can be converted into a binary image by using an adaptive threshold algorithm.
[0069] S42, identifying bubbles in each frame of the foaming agent bubble display image and counting the number of bubbles.
[0070] Image edge information is extracted through Canny edge detection, Sobel operator and other methods to assist in locating the bubble area; contours are extracted from binary images using tools such as OpenCV's findContours function; contours of suspected bubbles are screened out based on features such as size, shape, and roundness of the contours; and the fitEllipse or fitline function of OpenCV is used to perform circle fitting on the screened contours to identify bubbles.
[0071] S43, if the bubbles in the next frame of the foaming agent bubble display image are larger than those in the previous frame, the enlarged bubbles are marked as weld leakage bubbles.
[0072] During the vacuuming process, if there is a penetrating defect in the weld structure of the steel lining wall panel, the air will flow from the high-pressure side to the low-pressure side. Since there is a foaming agent in the sealed space, new bubbles will be generated in the sealed space. If new bubbles appear in the next frame of the foaming agent bubble display image and gradually increase with the increase of negative pressure in the vacuum cover, the bubbles can be identified as weld leakage bubbles.
[0073] S44. Locate the weld leakage point based on the position of the leakage bubble.
[0074] Of course, in the process of vacuuming, the original bubbles generated by brushing may be broken. For example, there are 10 bubbles in the sealed space initially. During the vacuuming process, a new bubble is generated due to a weld defect, and the bubbles in the sealed space initially may be broken. This may result in the number of bubbles in the previous frame of the foaming agent bubble display image being 10, while the number of bubbles in the next frame of the foaming agent bubble display image is also 10, and the controller 2 will make a misjudgment. Therefore, in some optional embodiments, after the bubbles in each frame of the foaming agent bubble display image are identified, the following contents are also included:
[0075] S421. Calculate the bubble area and perimeter.
[0076] S422: If the bubble area and bubble perimeter in the last frame of the foaming agent bubble display image are equal to or larger than the bubble at the same position in the first frame of the foaming agent bubble display image, mark the bubble as a leaking bubble.
[0077] During the vacuuming process, if the bubbles are not replenished with air, the bubbles will become smaller and smaller. However, the air in the bubbles generated by defects can be replenished, and their size can be maintained or gradually increased. When the number of bubbles does not change, the size of the bubbles in the foaming agent bubble display image before and after can be compared to further determine the leakage bubbles and avoid misjudgment.
[0078] During the actual detection process, the foaming agent bubble display image can also be uploaded to the terminal through the controller 2, for example, it can be uploaded to the cloud, mobile phone, computer, notebook and other devices that can express images, and the tester can manually record the leakage bubbles for verification.
[0079] S423. Locate the weld leakage point based on the position of the leakage bubble.
[0080] The magnetic intelligent nondestructive testing method for nuclear power plant steel lining welds provided in the present application can locate weld leakage points according to leakage bubbles by collecting foaming agent bubble display images and identifying leakage bubbles in the foaming agent bubble display images, thereby eliminating the need for human judgment, reducing the labor intensity of staff, and having high detection efficiency.
