Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of detection and identification technology, and in particular to a device and method for detecting and identifying defects in a hull weld. Background Art

[0002] Ships travel in the oceans and rivers for a long time. Due to the harsh working environment and the hull welds exposed on the hull surface, the hull welds are prone to defects due to corrosion; The quality of the hull welds is crucial to the strength of the hull structure, so strict inspections are required. During the inspection process, attention should be paid to the external and internal defects of the welds, such as weld dimensions, shape, undercut, weld bumps, pores, slag inclusions, welding cracks, etc., to ensure the stable operation of the hull. At the same time, during the weld inspection process, detection instruments are required to cooperate in completing the weld inspection work.

[0004] At present, the inspection of hull welds is mostly completed by using detection instruments. For example, the above-mentioned detection and identification device completes the inspection of welds through the cooperation of the detection mechanism, the moving mechanism and the lifting mechanism. However, the hull is limited by its own shape and structure, resulting in that the welds on the hull are mostly arc-shaped surfaces. The above-mentioned detection and identification device cannot adapt well to different arc-shaped welds to complete mobile inspection, resulting in large detection errors. In addition, the device is large in size and inconvenient to move. It has poor adaptability and flexibility, and cannot meet different weld inspection requirements to complete adaptive adjustment. It is easy to interfere with the inspection accuracy. There are a large number of detection blind spots, and the welding weaknesses of the hull cannot be discovered, which is not conducive to the upgrading of the hull welding process.

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0022] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inside", "all around" and the like indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0023] Embodiment 1: The present invention provides a technical solution: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a ship hull weld defect detection and identification device comprises: Two adsorption seats 1 are symmetrically arranged at intervals; The walking belt 2 is arranged between the two adsorption seats 1 to complete adaptive fine-tuning with the hull. The two adsorption seats 1 and the walking belt 2 together form an adaptively adjustable detection structure. The walking belt 2 is made of one or more materials such as flexible metal and rubber, so that the walking belt 2 can complete the movement control of the detection mechanism. At the same time, a plurality of support wheels can be arranged on the inner side of the walking belt 2. The support wheels are used to complete the interval setting between the walking belt 2 and the hull, which is beneficial to the movement of the detection mechanism. When it is necessary to adapt to the inner curved surface of the hull for detection, a support member can be added to the hull position corresponding to the walking belt 2, and the walking belt 2 is limited to the predetermined position of the hull by the support member. The number of the support members is set according to the demand; Two adsorption mechanisms are correspondingly arranged in the two adsorption seats 1 to complete adsorption positioning with the hull, and the two adsorption mechanisms are respectively connected with the two ends of the walking belt 2, and the adsorption mechanisms can complete the flexible control of the walking belt 2; The detection mechanism is arranged on the walking belt 2 to complete the walking detection. The detection mechanism is divided into a walking unit, a detection unit and a protection unit. The walking unit is used to control the detection unit to complete the moving line detection on the walking belt 2, and the protection unit is used to complete the safety protection and cleaning operation of the detection unit; like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, each adsorption seat 1 includes: The adsorption box 101 has an open top design. A top cover is detachably installed on the top of the adsorption box 101. A handle 102 is provided on the top cover. A weld avoidance area is provided in the middle of the bottom of the adsorption box 101. A through area 103 is provided on one side of the adsorption box 101 and is used to guide the walking belt 2.

Four No. 1 magnetic wheels 104 are arranged at the four corners of the bottom of the adsorption box 101 to complete the movement control, and the No. 1 magnetic wheel 104 can be attached to the hull to complete the adsorption.

[0024] Among them, the electrical components such as the winding motor 25 and the electric push rod 3 are all connected to the switch through the wire, and the switch is electrically connected to the controller, and the specific structure of the controller is not limited.

[0025] Embodiment 2: Based on the adsorption mechanism provided in Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a further technical solution of the adsorption mechanism.

[0026] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, each adsorption mechanism includes: Two electric push rods 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the adsorption box 101 through a bracket; Two lifting platforms 4 are slidably arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the adsorption box 101, and the two lifting platforms 4 are respectively connected to the output ends of the two electric push rods 3; Two adsorption members 5 are arranged at the bottom of the two lifting platforms 4 for adsorption and positioning with the hull. A through area cooperating with the adsorption member 5 is opened at the bottom of the adsorption box 101. The adsorption member 5 specifically adopts an electromagnet, an electric suction cup and other structures capable of completing adsorption and positioning to complete adsorption and fixing with the hull; Each adsorption mechanism includes: Two partitions 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the adsorption box 101, and sliding areas 7 are opened through the two partitions 6; The slide 8 is slidably disposed between the two partitions 6 and slidably engaged with the two sliding areas 7, and the walking belt 2 passes through the passing area 103 and contacts the slide 8; The pressing plate 9 is arranged on the slide seat 8 and is used to press and fix the walking belt 2. Specifically, the pressing plate 9 and the slide seat 8 complete the locking operation of the walking belt 2 through structures such as bolts; Two tension springs 10 are arranged in the two sliding areas 7 to complete the tension control of the walking belt 2, and the tension spring 10 is arranged between the sliding area 7 and the sliding seat 8; In the embodiment of the present invention, each adsorption mechanism further includes: The adsorption sleeve 11 is arranged on one side of the adsorption member 5. The bottom of the adsorption sleeve 11 is open and the top is closed. An open area cooperating with the adsorption sleeve 11 is arranged at the bottom of the adsorption box 101, which can be raised and lowered synchronously with the adsorption member 5 to contact the hull. The compensating suction cup 12 is arranged at the bottom of the adsorption sleeve 11 to complete the compensating contact with the hull. The compensating suction cup 12 is annular and made of rubber material, so that the compensating suction cup 12 can follow the adsorption piece 5 and the hull to be stably attached. The shapes of the compensating suction cup 12 and the adsorption piece 5 can be freely set according to the hull environment; The piston plate 13 is slidingly and sealingly arranged in the adsorption sleeve 11, and a pull rod 14 is fixedly arranged on the top of the piston plate 13, and the top of the pull rod 14 slides through the top of the adsorption sleeve 11; A return spring 15 is arranged outside the pull rod 14 to complete the automatic return of the piston plate 13. The return spring 15 is arranged between the piston plate 13 and the adsorption sleeve 11; The sliding area 16 is arranged at the top of one side of the partition 6, and a sensing block 17 is slidably engaged in the sliding area 16, and the sensing block 17 is triggered by the sliding seat 8 during movement; The guide sleeve 18 is arranged on the side of the partition 6 away from the sliding area 16. A traction rope 19 is slidably passed through the guide sleeve 18. The ends of the traction rope 19 are respectively connected to the sensing block 17 and the top of the pull rod 14 to complete the power connection. The traction rope 19 is made of wear-resistant material, specifically a metal rope or a fiber rope. At the same time, the guide sleeve 18 is an L-shaped structure as a whole, and a plurality of balls for guiding the traction rope 19 are arranged in the guide sleeve 18; It is worth noting that: when the weld area is adaptively adjusted: by providing an adsorption mechanism, the inspector holds the handle 102 and carries the adsorption seat 1 to the weld area of ​​the hull, first puts one adsorption seat 1 in contact with the hull, controls the electric push rod 3, drives the adsorption component 5 to move and complete adsorption and fixation with the hull, thereby completing the positioning of the adsorption seat 1, and then pulls the other adsorption seat 1 to move to the other end of the weld area of ​​the hull and fixes it, so that the walking belt 2 maintains a certain tension and is arranged between the two adsorption seats 1 to guide the detection mechanism. Since the walking belt 2 is a flexible structure, the walking belt 2 can adapt to the outer arc weld of the hull, and can be adapted for use with the flat weld of the hull, enriching the detection environment and being convenient to use. After the subsequent detection is completed, it is only necessary to transfer the two adsorption seats 1 to the predetermined position to perform the detection operation, making the overall detection flexible and variable, and improving the detection efficiency. In addition, the two ends of the walking belt 2 are detachably connected to the slide seat 8, and different lengths of walking belts 2 can be selected for replacement use for welds of different lengths.

[0027] Embodiment 3: Based on the detection mechanism provided in Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a further technical solution of the detection mechanism.

[0028] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the detection unit includes: The walking seat 20 is slidably mounted on the walking belt 2 to complete the movement detection; The detection head 21 is arranged on the walking seat 20 and is used to complete the walking detection action of the hull weld. The detection head 21 specifically uses one or more of a camera, a laser head and an ultrasonic flaw detection head to complete the detection of the weld; like Figure 8 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the walking unit includes: The concave frame 22 is slidably disposed on the walking seat 20; Two wheel seats are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bottom of the concave frame 22. The second magnetic wheel 23 is rotatably installed in the two wheel seats. The second magnetic wheel 23 can be attached to the hull to complete adsorption, which is beneficial to subsequent walking. In order to improve the walking stability of the second magnetic wheel 23, a walking motor connected to the second magnetic wheel 23 is installed on one side of the wheel seat. The movement of the second magnetic wheel 23 is compensated by the walking motor. The installation can be freely selected according to the detection requirements; The adjusting screw 24 is threadedly screwed on the concave frame 22, and the bottom of the adjusting screw 24 is rotatably connected to the traveling seat 20. The position of the concave frame 22 is adjusted by the adjusting screw 24, and a hand wheel is installed on the top of the adjusting screw 24; Two winding motors 25 are arranged on two adsorption seats 1 through brackets, and the output ends of the two winding motors 25 are both driven and installed with winding wheels 26, and the winding wheels 26 are wound with control ropes 27. One end of the control ropes 27 of the two winding wheels 26 is connected to the back of the walking seat 20, and the walking seat 20 is controlled by the cooperative control of the two winding motors 25 to complete the left and right adaptive movement adjustment on the walking belt 2. Specifically, an assembly seat is installed on one side of the winding motor 25, and a roller for guiding the walking belt 2 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the assembly seat. The assembly seat is used to fix the winding motor 25, and a guide plate is installed on the assembly seat. A wire hole is penetrated on the guide plate for guiding the control rope 27. The control rope 27 specifically adopts one of a metal rope and a fiber rope to complete the movement control, and the winding motor 25 can complete the forward and reverse control, which is beneficial to the movement of the walking seat 20; It is worth noting that: when completing the walking inspection of the weld area: after the inspection platform constructed by the detection unit, two adsorption seats 1 and the walking belt 2 is completed, the adjusting screw 24 is operated to drive the concave frame 22 to complete the movement adjustment on the walking seat 20, so that the interval distance between the detection head 21 and the weld area can be dynamically controlled, and the tension of the walking belt 2 can be adjusted at the same time, so that it can provide a stable support force for the detection mechanism, and the second magnetic wheel 23 on the two wheel seats is adsorbed on the hull to ensure the relative stability of the detection head 21 and the weld area, which is conducive to the detection work. Then, one of the winding motors 25 is started to rotate to reel in the control rope 27, and the other winding motor 25 follows the rotation to release the control rope 27, so that the walking seat 20 drives the detection head 21 to follow the movement to complete the walking inspection. It only needs to control the two winding motors 25 to complete the left and right movement of the walking seat 20, which is convenient for free control according to the detection environment. When the walking seat 20 moves, it drives the detection head 21 thereon to move to complete the real-time detection operation of the weld. At the same time, when fluctuations occur during walking detection: since the No. 2 magnetic wheel 23 is in contact with the hull to complete the walking detection, when the No. 2 magnetic wheel 23 is disturbed by the protrusions on the surface of the hull, the detection mechanism is synchronously driven to move to apply additional tension to the walking belt 2. By providing a sliding area 7 on the partition 6, the slide 8 can carry the walking belt 2 to complete active telescopic control when moving in the sliding area 7. The tension spring 10 can actively compensate for the fluctuations of the walking belt 2, so that the walking belt 2 and the detection mechanism remain in a stable state, thereby improving the detection safety. At the same time, when the slide 8 moves in the sliding area 7, When the walking belt 2 is controlled dynamically, the slide seat 8 will contact and push the set sensing block 17 in the moving path, so that the sensing block 17 slides in the sliding area 16, and the pull rod 14 is pulled by the traction rope 19, so that the piston plate 13 overcomes the return spring 15 and moves up in the adsorption sleeve 11. Firstly, the tension of the walking belt 2 can be synchronously and cooperatively controlled. Secondly, when the piston plate 13 moves upward, a pressure difference is formed at the bottom of the adsorption sleeve 11, so that the compensating suction cup 12 contacts the hull to provide adsorption force, which further improves the stability of the adsorption seat 1 and avoids the safety problem of falling off. like Fig.11 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the protection unit includes: Two protective parts are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the two wheel seats to complete the protection of both sides of the detection unit; Two transmission collars 28 are fixedly sleeved on one end of the two second magnetic wheels 23, and each transmission collar 28 is provided with a plurality of trigger blocks 29 in a circular array on the outside.

The bottom of each air chamber 30 is open. A piston 31 is installed in each air chamber 30 in a sliding and sealing manner. A push spring 32 is arranged between the piston 31 and the air chamber 30. Two running wheels 33 are rotatably mounted on the bottom of the two piston members 31 through a bracket, and the running wheels 33 can contact the trigger block 29 to complete continuous triggering; Two No. 1 air pipes 34 are connected and opened on one side of the top of the air chamber 30. A No. 1 one-way valve for introducing gas into the air chamber 30 in one direction is installed at the end of the No. 1 air pipe 34. A No. 2 air pipe 35 is connected and installed on one side of the No. 1 air pipe 34 at the top of each air chamber 30.

The cross arm 37 is rotatably connected to the protection shaft 36, and the isolation protection of the detection unit is completed through the protection shaft 36; The circulation area 38 is provided at the center of the protection shaft 36 and is connected to the No. 2 gas pipe 35. Specifically, the two ends of the circulation area 38 of the two protection shafts 36 are respectively connected to the No. 2 gas pipes 35 of the two gas chambers 30 through pipelines, so that the gas can be stably fed into the circulation area 38, and the external gas source can be connected to the circulation area 38, so as to complete the blast cleaning of the weld area.
