Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pipeline descaling, and in particular to a pipeline descaling device and a descaling method. Background Art
[0002] Long-distance transmission pipelines are widely used in energy transmission, chemical industry, water conservancy and other fields. Scaling on the inner wall of the pipeline is an inevitable problem during operation. Scaling on the inner wall of the pipeline will block the pipeline and affect the transportation efficiency, and even cause safety accidents such as pipeline deformation and bursting.
[0003] The existing descaling methods mainly include mechanical method, high-pressure water jet method, chemical cleaning method, pipe cleaning method and ultrasonic descaling method. Mechanical method, high-pressure water jet method and pipe cleaning method all require shutdown of production, while chemical cleaning method may produce residue. Ultrasonic descaling method has strict requirements on the installation of ultrasonic transducer, and the action range of a single ultrasonic transducer is only tens of centimeters. In contrast, ultrasonic guided waves have a larger coverage area due to propagation on the pipe wall. Although it has the advantage of long propagation distance, it still produces energy attenuation as the distance increases.
[0004] The possible attenuation of ultrasonic guided waves propagating on the pipe wall includes absorption, scattering and leakage. The cavitation effect caused by the energy leaked into the pipe liquid impacts the attachments on the inner wall of the pipe, which plays a role in removing the scale on the inner wall of the pipe. However, similar to power ultrasound, the effect of ultrasonic guided wave pipeline descaling is related to the power. However, as the ultrasonic guided wave propagates on the pipe wall, the energy of the guided wave will gradually decay. In order to solve the problem that ultrasonic guided waves will produce energy attenuation with the increase of distance, a movable ultrasonic guided wave long-distance pipeline efficient descaling device is proposed, including an external support ring, a descaling mechanism, a detection mechanism and a power control mechanism. The device can move on the outer wall of the pipe and automatically detect the scale inside the pipe. After moving to the fixed point of the pipe scale for descaling, it continues to detect and move to the next scale point to work, so as to automatically detect and descale the long-distance pipeline, solving the problem of limited distance of ultrasonic guided wave descaling operation in the long-distance pipeline.
[0005] The utility model with application number 201020267367.7 provides a long pipeline high-efficiency ultrasonic anti-scaling / de-scaling device, which is used to remove / prevent dirt in the transport pipeline, and includes a power signal control mechanism and a plurality of actuators connected in the pipeline, and the power signal control mechanism is electrically connected to the actuators through cables; the actuators further include a plurality of transducers, which are uniformly annularly arrayed and inserted on a variable amplitude tube, and the inside of the transducers is isolated from the working medium in the pipe by an inner liner pipe, and has the same strength as the original pipeline, and is fixed by a pre-tightening flange combination on the outside, and the transducers are electrically connected to the power signal control mechanism through cables. According to the long pipeline high-efficiency ultrasonic anti-scaling / de-scaling device of the utility model, not only can the obvious descaling effect of the long-distance pipeline be achieved, but also the formation of dirt can be prevented, and the corrosion of metal by dissolved oxygen in water can be prevented, while reducing resistance and increasing flow rate. However, the device can only descale in fixed areas and descaling long pipes is achieved by setting transducers at certain intervals, which is costly and difficult to maintain.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] Example 1 like Figure 1As shown, a movable ultrasonic guided wave long-distance pipeline descaling device includes an external support ring 2 arranged on the outside of a pipeline 1, at least one power-controlled walking mechanism 5 is arranged on the external support ring 2, and at least one descaling mechanism 3 connected to the external support ring 2 and at least one detection mechanism 4 connected to the external support ring 2 are arranged between the external support ring 2 and the pipeline 1. The descaling mechanism 3 includes an ultrasonic descaling head and a lifting angle adjustment component, and the ultrasonic descaling head is connected to the external support ring 2 through the lifting angle adjustment component. The detection mechanism 4 includes an ultrasonic detection head and a lifting angle adjustment component, and the ultrasonic detection head is connected to the external support ring 2 through the lifting angle adjustment component. The descaling mechanism 3, the detection mechanism 4 and the power-controlled walking mechanism 5 are all connected to the main control module, and the main control module is connected to the host computer. Among them, the pipeline 1 is a liquid-filled pipeline in industrial production, the external support ring 2 is a descaling equipment frame, and the descaling mechanism 3 is mainly used to descale the inside of the pipeline or detect the scale layer through ultrasonic guided waves. The lifting angle adjustment component is mainly used to control the lifting of the ultrasonic descaling head and the ultrasonic detection head during descaling, and to lower the ultrasonic descaling head and the ultrasonic detection head during descaling or detection, so that the ultrasonic descaling head and the ultrasonic detection head are close to the surface of the pipeline 1. At the same time, during descaling or detection, the lifting angle adjustment component can be used to adjust the angle between the bottom surface of the ultrasonic descaling head and the ultrasonic detection head and the surface of the pipeline 1, so that the ultrasonic descaling head and the ultrasonic detection head are tangent to the surface of the pipeline 1 to prevent the ultrasonic guided wave from being damaged during the conduction process. The power control walking mechanism 5 is mainly used to drive the descaling equipment to move along the pipeline 1, so as to realize the cleaning of the entire pipeline 1 by using the descaling equipment.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, an annular groove is provided on the inner annular surface of the external support ring 2, and an annular support rod 22 is provided in the annular groove. One end of the annular support rod 22 is slidably matched with the annular groove through a slider 23, and the other end of the annular support rod 22 is provided with a pulley I 25. In this embodiment, the external support ring 2 can adopt an integrated annular structure, and the annular support rod 22 is matched with the annular groove through a slider. The annular support rod 22 can be manually pushed to change its position in the annular groove to achieve its position adjustment.
[0029] Example 2 A movable ultrasonic waveguide long-distance pipeline descaling device, in this embodiment, the external support ring 2 is a ring-shaped member composed of a plurality of fixedly connected circular ring assemblies 21; two adjacent circular ring assemblies 21 are fixedly connected by flange bolts, and other fixing methods such as welding can also be used as needed. The circular ring support rods 22 are arranged on the corresponding circular ring assemblies 21 along the circumferential direction to ensure the stability of the circular ring assemblies 21.
[0030] The circular ring support rod 22 is mainly used to support the circular ring formed by the circular ring assembly 21. At the same time, the circular ring support rod 22 has the same length, which can ensure that the center of the descaling device coincides with the center of the pipeline 1, preventing the descaling mechanism 3 from deviating and affecting the descaling effect.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, the lifting angle adjustment assembly includes a solenoid valve lifting rod 33, and telescopic rods 32 are respectively arranged on both sides of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33. By adjusting the extension length of the two telescopic rods on both sides, the inclination angle of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 is changed to achieve the purpose of adjusting the working angle of the ultrasonic descaling head or the ultrasonic detection head. The upper end of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 is slidably matched with the annular groove, and one end of the telescopic rod 32 is hinged with a guide block 34, which is slidably arranged in the annular groove. When the position of the descaling mechanism 3 or the detection mechanism 4 needs to be adjusted, the telescopic rod 32 and the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 can be driven to move by sliding the upper end of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 and the guide block 34, thereby adjusting the position of the descaling mechanism 3 or the detection mechanism 4. The other end of the telescopic rod 32 is hinged to the lower part of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33. When the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 is extended or lifted, one end of the telescopic rod 32 hinged to the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 will change the angle between the telescopic rod 32 and the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 in accordance with the action of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33, and extend or contract under the stretching or compression of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33. An ultrasonic descaling head or an ultrasonic detection head is fixed to the lower end of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33. The ultrasonic descaling head includes a wedge-shaped seat 35 and an ultrasonic guided wave transducer Ⅰ31 disposed on the wedge-shaped seat. Depending on the model of the pipeline 1, the wedge-shaped seat can be replaced to make it fit the outer wall of the pipeline more closely and increase the energy transmission efficiency. The solenoid valve lifting rod 33 and the ultrasonic guided wave transducer Ⅰ31 are both connected to the main control module.
[0032] Among them, the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 is mainly used to control the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 to be close to or away from the pipeline 1, ensuring that the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 is close to the pipeline 1 when outputting the sinusoidal signal to prevent energy loss. When the descaling equipment moves, the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 lifts the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 to prevent the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 from contacting the pipeline 1 during movement and causing wear. The telescopic rod 32 is mainly used to limit the position of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 to prevent the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 from breaking and being damaged during contact with the pipeline 1. At the same time, through the cooperation of the two telescopic rods 32, the angle between the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 and the surface of the pipeline 1 can be controlled to ensure that the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 is in tangential contact with the pipeline 1. The ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 is mainly used to output a sinusoidal signal to descale the pipeline 1.
[0033] like Figure 4As shown, according to different actual needs, the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 on the lower side of the other end of the solenoid valve lifting rod 33 can be replaced with an ultrasonic detection head. The ultrasonic detection head includes an ultrasonic guided wave sensor II 41, which is connected to the main control module; the ultrasonic guided wave sensor II 41 is an ultrasonic guided wave sensor with integrated transceiver. The ultrasonic guided wave sensor II 41 is mainly used to send and receive ultrasonic signals, and transmit the collected ultrasonic signals to the upper computer to analyze the location of the scale layer.
[0034] like Figure 5 As shown, the power control walking mechanism 5 includes a fixed block 54 fixed on the external support ring 2 and a power control unit 51 arranged on the fixed block 54, a connecting rod 52 is arranged on the fixed block 54, and the connecting rod 52 is fixedly connected to the fixed block 54 by screws, and a pulley II 53 is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 52 away from the power control unit 51, and the power control unit 51 drives the pulley II 53 to move along the pipeline 1 through a transmission mechanism. Among them, the transmission mechanism can be selected from a belt drive or a chain drive.
[0035] The other structures and principles are the same as those in Example 1.

A limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the fixed block 54, and the limiting groove cooperates with the limiting protrusion 24 arranged on the outer ring surface of the external support ring 2 to achieve plug-in or snap-fit positioning, so that the power control unit 51 is evenly installed on the external support ring 2, ensuring that the descaling device can stably move along the pipeline 1.
[0037] Among them, a notch is provided on the lower side of the fixing block 54, which is connected to the protrusion on the outer side of the ring assembly 21 through the notch, so that the power control walking mechanism 5 is fixed on the descaling device. In order to further ensure the stability of the fixing block 54, bolts can be used to reinforce the lower part of the fixing block 54 and the protrusion. The power control unit 51 includes a microprocessor module and a drive motor. The drive motor and the general control module are both connected to the microprocessor module. The transmission mechanism includes a transmission wheel III 57 connected to the drive motor and a transmission wheel I 55 coaxially arranged with the pulley II 53. The transmission wheel III 57 is connected to the transmission wheel I 55 through a transmission belt. The microprocessor module is mainly used to control the drive motor according to the command of the general control module. The drive motor is mainly used to drive the transmission shaft to rotate. The rotating shaft is mainly used to drive the transmission wheel I 55 to rotate, and then drive the pulley II 53 to rotate.
[0038] As a preferred solution, the connecting rod 52 is an L-shaped connecting rod, and a transmission wheel II 56 is arranged at the turning point of the L-shaped connecting rod, and the transmission wheel III 57 and the transmission wheel I 55 are connected to the transmission wheel II 56 through a transmission belt. The pulley II 53 can be an ordinary pulley or a universal Furley wheel. When the pulley II 53 uses a universal Furley wheel, the pipeline descaling device can rotate along the pipeline 1 in a circular direction, thereby driving the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I 31 and the ultrasonic guided wave sensor II 41 to move around the pipeline 1, and the user can manually adjust it to more accurately lock and remove the scale layer.

When the scale layer is detected, the solenoid valve lifting rod (33) is controlled to lift, so that the ultrasonic guided wave sensor II (41) is separated from the pipeline (1); S4: Controlling the power control unit (51) to drive the pulley II (53) to drive the descaling device to move to the scale layer, adjusting the solenoid valve lifting rod (33) and the telescopic rod (32) through the main control module to make the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I (31) close to the outer wall of the pipeline (1), and using the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I (31) to emit a sinusoidal signal modulated by the Hanning window to cause the liquid in the pipeline to produce a cavitation effect, thereby removing the scale layer in the pipeline (1); S5: After the descaling is completed, the ultrasonic guided wave transducer I (31) stops emitting the sinusoidal signal, and the solenoid valve lifting rod (33) and the telescopic rod (32) are adjusted so that the ultrasonic guided wave sensor II (41) is closely attached to the pipeline (1) to detect the descaling effect and find the next scale layer; S6: Repeat steps S2-S5 until the descaling work on the pipeline (1) is completed.
