Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of manipulators, and in particular relates to an industrial X-ray detection manipulator. Background Art
[0002] Industrial X-ray testing is a non-destructive testing technology widely used in the industrial field. X-rays have the ability to penetrate matter. When X-rays penetrate an object, the absorption and scattering degree of X-rays are different due to the different factors such as density, thickness and atomic number in different parts of the object. For example, high-density areas in metals (such as inclusions in castings) absorb more X-rays than low-density areas (such as normal metal matrices). After being attenuated by the object, the X-rays are irradiated onto the detector, which converts the X-ray signals into electrical signals or digital signals, which are then processed and reconstructed by a computer to display an image of the interior of the object.
[0003] At present, when performing X-ray inspection on pipelines, in order to ensure the comprehensiveness of the inspection, the staff needs to constantly adjust the position of the inspection equipment to meet the inspection needs. Such operation is not only inefficient, but also prone to incomplete inspection problems. The installation positions of the X-ray tube and the detector in the inspection equipment are fixed, but for pipelines with larger diameters, in order to be able to completely cover the cross-section of the pipeline, the distance between the X-ray tube and the detector needs to be increased accordingly to avoid the occurrence of blind spots in the inspection. In the process of driving the X-ray tube and the detector to rotate on the outer surface of the pipeline for comprehensive inspection, because the larger the diameter of the pipeline, the longer the circumference, in order to comprehensively inspect all parts of the pipeline in the circumferential direction, for large-diameter pipelines, each rotation angle needs to be relatively small, so as to ensure that there is a sufficiently fine distribution of inspection points on the circumference to avoid missing defects. The current fixed-angle rotation adjustment obviously cannot meet the use requirements well. Summary of the invention

The larger the diameter of the pipeline, the smaller the single rotation detection angle. Because the larger the diameter of the pipeline, the longer its circumference. Reducing the single rotation detection angle can ensure that there is a sufficiently fine distribution of detection points on the circumference to avoid missing defects.
[0024] The circular rotation angle in-position feedback mechanism 7 is fixedly installed between the hollow fixed seat 1 and the detection azimuth adjustment mechanism 4. The circular rotation angle in-position feedback mechanism 7 includes an in-position switch 71 fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the hollow fixed seat 1. The shaft wall of the support shaft 41 is fixedly connected with a positioning rod 72 with an L-shaped structure. The lower end of the positioning rod 72 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped pressing block 73 arranged corresponding to the position of the in-position switch 71.
[0025] The PLC controller 8 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the hollow fixing seat 1, and is electrically connected to the automatic detection mechanism 2, the pipe clamping mechanism 3, the detection orientation adjustment mechanism 4, the detection state control mechanism 5, the single detection angle confirmation mechanism 6 and the circular rotation angle in-position feedback mechanism 7 respectively.
[0026] The operating principle of the present invention is described as follows: first, the pipeline to be tested is placed at the center of the upper end of the hollow fixing seat 1, and the PLC controller 8 controls the adjustment motor 33 to move. The adjustment motor 33 drives multiple adjustment screws 32 to rotate synchronously through the bevel gear assembly 34, and then drives multiple adjustment seats 35 to drive the rubber clamping block 37 to move toward the pipeline through the threaded sleeve effect of the adjustment screw 32 and the adjustment seat 35, until the rubber clamping block 37 contacts the outer wall of the pipeline, and when the pressure value of the pipeline by the pressure sensor 38 on the side wall of the rubber clamping block 37 increases to a preset level, the PLC controller 8 controls the adjustment motor 33 to stop moving, thereby completing the stable clamping of the pipeline; At the beginning, the support shell 22 is located on the inner side of the electric slide rail 21, so that the support block is located closest to the pipeline. After the pipeline is fixed, the PLC controller 8 controls the regulating motor 56 and the electric slide rail 21 to move synchronously. The regulating motor 56 drives the regulating screw 55 to rotate, and the triggering protrusion 57 is driven to move synchronously through the threaded sleeve effect of the regulating screw 55 and the triggering protrusion 57. At this time, the electric slide rail 21 will also move the support shell 22 away from the pipeline. The moving speed ratio of the triggering protrusion 57 and the support shell 22 is 1:5. Specifically, when the diameter of the pipeline to be detected is larger, the trigger switch at the lower end of the transmission seat is The greater the distance between the trigger convex block 54 and the trigger convex block 57, the longer the interval time that the trigger convex block 57 needs to move and press on the trigger switch 54. After the trigger convex block 57 presses on the trigger switch 54, the PLC controller 8 controls the motor 56 and the electric slide rail 21 to stop moving synchronously, thereby making the electric slide rail 21 move a greater distance, making the detection distance between the ray tube 26 and the detector 27 greater from the pipeline to be detected, thereby ensuring that the X-rays emitted by the ray tube 26 can completely cover the cross section of the pipeline, ensuring that the X-rays can penetrate the entire pipeline wall thickness at a suitable angle, and avoiding the occurrence of a detection blind area; When the diameter of the pipeline to be detected is larger, the adjustment seat 35 drives the adjustment conductive contact piece 53 to slide on the adjustment resistor rod 52 to a smaller distance, thereby making the access resistance of the adjustment resistor rod 52 smaller, and the adjustment conductive contact piece 53 and the adjustment resistor rod 52 are connected in series to the power supply circuit of the ray tube 26, thereby increasing the tube current of the ray tube 26. The tube current refers to the intensity of the electron flow from the cathode to the anode in the ray tube 26. The larger the tube current, the more electrons hit the anode target per unit time, and the more X-ray photons are generated, thereby increasing the power of the ray tube 26, ensuring that the rays can effectively penetrate the pipeline at a larger distance, thereby ensuring the detection quality; The regulating conductive contact piece 53 and the regulating resistor rod 52 are also connected in series to the power supply circuit of the feedback electromagnetic plate 617. When the diameter of the pipeline to be detected is larger, the access resistance value of the regulating resistor rod 52 is smaller, the power supply current of the feedback electromagnetic plate 617 is larger, and the feedback electromagnetic plate 617 is energized to generate a larger magnetism that is the same as the feedback permanent magnet plate 616, thereby driving the lifting plate 613 to move up along the guide slide bar 612 to overcome the elastic force of the downward pressing spring 615. The distance is larger, and the confirmation switch 614 at the upper end of the lifting plate 613 is smaller than the pressing plate 611. When the ray tube 26 and the detector 27 are aligned with the pipeline to be detected, the distance between the lifting plate 613 and the pressing plate 611 is smaller. After one position is completely detected, the PLC controller 8 controls the motor drive assembly 42 to drive the support shaft 41 to rotate, and then drives the pipeline to be detected to rotate through the pipeline clamping mechanism 3, so that the pipeline to be detected is adjusted relative to the ray tube 26 and the detector 27, and the detection work of the next position is carried out. When the support shaft 41 drives the pipeline to rotate, the PLC controller 8 controls the power supply device to supply power to the connection electromagnetic plate 62, and the connection electromagnetic plate 62 is energized to generate a magnetic field opposite to the connection permanent magnetic plate 63, so that the connection electromagnetic plate 62 and the connection permanent magnetic plate 63 are stably connected together, so that the support shaft 41 rotates. When the synchronous sleeve 61 moves, it drives the synchronous sleeve 61 to rotate synchronously, and in this process, the torsion spring 65 is rotated and squeezed. The synchronous sleeve 61 drives the arc-shaped outer rack 67 to move through the extension rod 66, and the transmission screw 69 is driven to rotate synchronously through the meshing action of the arc-shaped outer rack 67 and the transmission gear 610. Then, the threaded sleeve connection of the transmission screw 69 and the pressing plate 611 makes the pressing plate 611 move in the confirmation shell 68 until the pressing plate 611 presses on the confirmation switch 614. Then, the PLC controller 8 controls the motor drive assembly 42 to stop the action, and the position of the pipeline to be detected is limited and locked. Specifically, when The larger the diameter of the pipeline, the smaller the distance between the confirmation switch 614 at the upper end of the lifting plate 613 and the pressing plate 611. The smaller the rotation angle of the support shaft 41, the smaller the pressing plate 611 can be pressed on the confirmation switch 614, so that the rotation angle of the pipeline to be detected is smaller. The rotation detection angle of the ray tube 26 and the detector 27 can be automatically adjusted each time based on the diameter of the pipeline to be detected. The larger the diameter of the pipeline, the smaller the single rotation detection angle. Because the larger the diameter of the pipeline, the longer its circumference. Reducing the single rotation detection angle can ensure that there is a sufficiently fine distribution of detection points on the circumference to avoid missing defects. At the same time, after the confirmation switch 614 is pressed and triggered, the PLC controller 8 controls the power supply device to cut off the power supply to the electromagnetic plate 62, thereby disconnecting the synchronous sleeve 61 from the support shaft 41. Under the action of the torsion spring 65, the synchronous sleeve 61 drives the arc-shaped outer rack 67 to reset and move, thereby driving the transmission screw 69 to reverse, so that the pressing plate 611 is reset to the initial position, waiting for the next azimuth adjustment test; When the support shaft 41 drives the pipeline to be inspected to rotate one circle, the positioning rod 72 outside the support shaft 41 will drive the arc-shaped pressing block 73 to press on the in-place switch 71 again, indicating that the pipeline to be inspected has been inspected in a circumferential direction. At this time, the PLC controller 8 controls the rotation motor 24 to operate, and the rotation motor 24 drives the rotating screw 23 to rotate. Through the threaded connection between the rotating screw 23 and the lifting block 25, the lifting block 25 drives the X-ray tube 26 and the detector 27 to move downward, so that the X-ray tube 26 and the detector 27 move to the next inspection position on the pipeline to be inspected, realizing automatic and continuous inspection work, and effectively improving the inspection efficiency. It should be noted that the obscured part of the bottom of the pipeline to be inspected can be pre-inspected or subsequently uniformly inspected to avoid the problem of obstruction affecting the inspection effect and causing inaccurate inspection.
