Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of pipeline detection, and in particular relates to a guided pipeline weld ultrasonic detection device and a detection method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ultrasonic weld inspection is widely used to detect internal defects in steel pipe welds, such as slag inclusions and brittle fractures. It can accurately identify the location and type of defects without damaging the weld. For example, CN118225885A discloses an ultrasonic time-of-flight diffraction inspection device for weld inspection, comprising a fixed rod with a mounting slot at the bottom, two movable blocks slidably mounted within the mounting slot, a detection assembly connected to the bottom of the movable blocks, and an adjustment rod threadedly inserted between the two movable blocks. During the inspection of pipeline welds, this invention allows the detection probe and receiving probe to be controlled simultaneously with one hand, while the ultrasonic detector is controlled with the other hand. This reduces the inspection difficulty and improves the inspection efficiency compared to the method of multiple inspectors cooperating in the inspection. In addition, when it is necessary to stop midway or add a mark to the weld defect, the magnetic plate can cooperate with the roller to adsorb the fixed rod and the detection assembly to the current position on the pipe wall, thereby facilitating the continuation of subsequent inspections.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0044] When the pipeline is translated, the pipeline is located in the first mounting ring 401, and several groups of scanning cameras 406 scan the outer wall of the pipeline and control several groups of first electric push rods 402 to drive several groups of guide blocks 403 to move toward the pipeline, so that several groups of rubber sleeves 405 are in contact with the outer wall of the pipeline. Then, several groups of guide wheels 404 are controlled to rotate synchronously to complete the translation of the pipeline, and the telescopic length of the corresponding first electric push rods 402 can be adjusted in real time according to the welding condition of the pipeline to adapt, thereby improving the compatibility of the ultrasonic detection device.
[0045] For example, Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the weld detection mechanism 5 includes a second mounting ring 501; a mounting groove 502 is formed on the inner wall of the second mounting ring 501; two sets of limiting rings 503 are provided at both ends of the mounting groove 502; the two sets of limiting rings 503 have a plurality of limiting grooves distributed in an annular array at opposite ends; each set of limiting grooves is parabolic; when the two sets of limiting rings 503 are combined, a wavy annular channel is formed; a conductive ring 506 is provided in the mounting groove 502; a brush 507 is provided in the mounting groove 502; the brush 507 is movably fitted with the outer wall of the conductive ring 506 and is electrically connected;

[0047] When inspecting pipeline welds, the second electric push rod 510 drives the probe limit assembly 504 toward the pipeline, causing the ultrasonic probe 505 to contact the outer wall of the edge of the pipeline weld. A drive structure is provided in the second mounting ring 501. The drive structure includes a ring gear connected to one end of the conductive ring 506, and a drive motor and gear installed in the second mounting ring 501. When the drive motor is controlled to drive the gear to rotate, due to the engagement between the gear and the ring gear, the ring gear can drive the ultrasonic probe 505 along the weld direction through the conductive ring 506, thereby performing a comprehensive inspection of the weld. During the inspection process, the ultrasonic probe 505 performs ultrasonic testing and sends data to the ultrasonic flaw detector 6 in real time through the conductive ring 506 and the brush 507.

[0050] When installing the ultrasonic probe 505, the ultrasonic probe 505 is first placed between the two sets of probe clamping plates 50405. Then, the two sets of threaded rods 50403 are controlled to rotate. Under the threaded connection relationship between the two sets of threaded grooves and the two sets of first sliders 50404, the two sets of first sliders 50404 drive the outer walls of the two sets of probe clamping plates 50405 to complete the fixing of the ultrasonic probe 505. The two sets of second return springs 50409 are usually in a compressed state in a normal state. Only when the two sets of probe clamping plates 50405 clamp the ultrasonic probe 505 are they in a stretched state. At this time, the two sets of first sliders 50404 are disengaged from the corresponding threaded grooves, the threaded rods 50403 continue to rotate, and the two sets of second sliders 50406 can drive the two sets of protective shells 50408 to wrap the ultrasonic probe 505 through the two sets of gas springs 50407, thereby preventing external forces from damaging the ultrasonic probe 505 when idle. This not only improves the maintenance efficiency of the ultrasonic testing equipment, but also improves the protective performance of the ultrasonic testing equipment.
[0051] Working principle:
[0052] When performing ultrasonic testing of pipeline welds, the pipeline is first passed through the pipeline guide mechanism 4 and the weld detection mechanism 5, and then the two ends of the pipeline are clamped by two groups of clamping plates 204 respectively. The inner wall of the clamping plate 204 is provided with a limit tooth 205 to prevent the pipeline from rotating. Then, several groups of first electric push rods 402 are controlled to drive several groups of guide blocks 403 to move toward the pipeline, so that several groups of rubber sleeves 405 are in contact with the outer wall of the pipeline. Since the translation plate 201 is movable throughout the mounting seat 1, when the several groups of guide wheels 404 rotate, the friction between the rubber sleeve 405 and the outer wall of the pipeline can drive the pipeline to move horizontally. When the weld of the pipeline moves into the weld detection mechanism 5, the scanning camera 406 can detect it and control the pipeline to stop moving, and then control the second electric push rod 510 to drive the probe limit assembly 504 to move toward the pipeline, so that the ultrasonic probe 505 is in contact with the edge of the pipeline weld. On the outer wall of the edge, a driving structure is provided in the second mounting ring 501, and the driving structure includes a ring gear connected to one end of the conductive ring 506 and a driving motor and gear installed in the second mounting ring 501. When the driving motor is controlled to drive the gear to rotate, due to the engagement of the gear with the ring gear, the ring gear can drive the ultrasonic probe 505 to move along the weld direction through the conductive ring 506, and due to the restriction of the wavy annular channel between the two sets of limit rings 503, the fixed part of the second electric push rod 510 can move in the wavy annular channel under the action of several sets of first return springs 512, so that the ultrasonic probe 505 can perform regular circular motion in a wavy shape to detect the weld. During this process, the ultrasonic probe 505 performs ultrasonic detection and sends data to the ultrasonic flaw detector 6 in real time through the electrical signal connection between the conductive ring 506 and the brush 507, thereby completing the ultrasonic detection of the pipeline weld.
[0053] By controlling the ultrasonic probe 505 to contact the outer wall of the edge of the pipe weld, and then controlling the conductive ring 506 to drive the ultrasonic probe 505 to move along the weld direction, the weld can be comprehensively inspected. In addition, due to the restrictions of the two sets of limit rings 503 during the inspection process, the ultrasonic probe 505 can perform regular circular motion in a wave shape to inspect the weld. At the same time, the spacing between the two sets of limit rings 503 can be adjusted as needed to adjust the swing amplitude, thereby avoiding the problem of position deviation of the probe during the inspection process, thereby improving the use effect of the ultrasonic detection device.
[0054] The two sets of second return springs 50409 are usually in a compressed state under normal conditions, and are only in a stretched state when the two sets of probe clamping plates 50405 clamp the ultrasonic probe 505. At this time, the two sets of first sliders 50404 disengage from the corresponding threaded grooves, and the threaded rod 50403 continues to rotate. The two sets of second sliders 50406 can drive the two sets of protective shells 50408 to wrap the ultrasonic probe 505 through the two sets of gas springs 50407, thereby preventing external forces from damaging the ultrasonic probe 505 when idle, thereby improving not only the maintenance efficiency of the ultrasonic detection equipment, but also the protection performance of the ultrasonic detection equipment.
[0055] By passing the pipeline through the pipeline guide mechanism 4 and the weld detection mechanism 5, and then placing the two ends of the pipeline between the two groups of clamping plates 204 respectively, and then controlling the four groups of first motors 206 to drive the four groups of clamping plates 204 to clamp the two ends of the pipeline, so that several groups of limiting teeth 205 are in contact with the outer wall of the pipeline, and then controlling the pipeline guide mechanism 4 to drive the pipeline to move horizontally, so that the weld detection mechanism 5 can perform annular detection on the pipeline weld, avoiding the need for manual operation and improving the efficiency of weld ultrasonic detection.
[0056] When the pipeline is translated, the pipeline is located in the first mounting ring 401, and several groups of scanning cameras 406 scan the outer wall of the pipeline and control several groups of first electric push rods 402 to drive several groups of guide blocks 403 to move toward the pipeline, so that several groups of rubber sleeves 405 are in contact with the outer wall of the pipeline. Then, several groups of guide wheels 404 are controlled to rotate synchronously to complete the translation of the pipeline, and the telescopic length of the corresponding first electric push rods 402 can be adjusted in real time according to the welding condition of the pipeline to adapt, thereby improving the compatibility of the ultrasonic detection device.
