Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of industrial pipeline detection, and in particular to an industrial gas pipeline wall thickness detection device and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In industrial production, gas pipelines are key facilities for transporting gas, and their wall thickness is directly related to the safety and reliability of the pipelines. However, traditional gas pipeline wall thickness detection methods often rely on manual operation of detection instruments, which has many inconveniences and limitations.
[0003] Most of the existing detection technologies use handheld wall thickness detectors. The operator needs to manually place the detector probe on the pipe wall for measurement. When facing the wall thickness detection of gas pipelines, this method is difficult to ensure the vertical contact between the probe and the pipe wall and the stable detection position. It is easy to cause the detection accuracy to decrease due to human factors. Sometimes some auxiliary equipment is used for auxiliary positioning, but these auxiliary positioning devices often need to be manually disassembled and moved after each detection. For long-distance gas pipeline detection, frequent disassembly and relocation of the detection position is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive, which seriously affects the detection efficiency.
[0004] In addition, during the detection process, there is a lack of effective devices to assist operators in real-time monitoring of detection data and convenient operation. At the same time, the structural design of traditional detection devices is not conducive to maintenance and replacement of parts. Once the detector fails or needs calibration, it often requires a complicated disassembly and reinstallation process, which increases maintenance costs and downtime.
[0005] To overcome these problems, the present invention proposes a novel industrial gas pipeline wall thickness detection device and a use method thereof. Summary of the invention

[0019] The present invention also provides a method for using an industrial gas pipeline wall thickness detection device, comprising the following steps:
[0020] S1: Use two handles 1 to control the two arc plates to move away from each other, so that the two arc plates can be in an open state, and then the two arc plates are clamped on the gas pipeline to be tested. At the same time, under the action of the torsion spring, it can be ensured that the multiple guide wheels 1 are in contact with the outer wall of the gas pipeline. Then, the two strip plates are unfolded and the multiple guide wheels 2 are in contact with the outer wall of the gas pipeline. The position of the fixed strip pointing to the protractor is observed to determine whether the mounting base is in a vertical state with the gas pipeline, and then the control panel is adjusted to an angle suitable for observation and operation;
[0021] S2: Turn on the power and start the drive motor. The drive motor controls the two traveling wheels to rotate, and controls the device to move along the gas pipeline to be inspected with the cooperation of the other two traveling wheels. The operator cleans the required inspection position in front of the walking direction and applies an appropriate amount of coupling agent. Then, the device is controlled to move to the position to be inspected, and the lifting plate is controlled by the electric cylinder to drive the installation sleeve to move downward, so that the probe of the wall thickness detector is against the position to be inspected and the wall thickness inspection operation is performed on it. The inspection data is displayed to the operator through the display screen. At the same time, during the inspection process, the operator is not affected to pre-process other positions to be inspected and apply coupling agent, thereby greatly improving the inspection efficiency.
[0022] S3: After the test is completed, use the two handles to open the arc plate and remove it from the gas pipeline. After removal, store the two strip plates to a vertical state. When the wall thickness detector needs to be stored or replaced separately, open the top cover through handle 2, then rotate the limit bolt to disengage it from the abutment state with the outside of the wall thickness detector, and then take the wall thickness detector out of the installation sleeve and store it separately or replace it with another wall thickness detector.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an industrial gas pipeline wall thickness detection device and a method for using the same, which have the following beneficial effects:
[0024] 1. The accuracy and efficiency of detection are improved, because the device can be stably clamped on gas pipelines of different sizes through the support guide assembly, and the vertical contact between the detector probe and the pipeline wall can be ensured by the setting of the positioning guide assembly.
[0025] 2. Through the setting of the walking assembly, the operator can control it to move along the gas pipeline, so that multi-point detection can be achieved without frequent disassembly and assembly. At the same time, preparation work can be carried out at other locations without interrupting the detection, thereby reducing the detection time and improving work efficiency.
[0026] 3. The support and adjustment assembly is set to ensure that the wall thickness detector probe is in close contact or out of contact with the pipe wall, which not only ensures the accuracy of the test data, but also prevents the wall thickness detector probe from being damaged when the device is moving.
[0027] 4. Through the setting of the display screen of the control panel, the operator can monitor the test data in real time, ensuring the transparency and reliability of the test process. At the same time, the inclination of the control panel can be adjusted as needed, so as to adapt well to the operating habits of different operators.
[0028] 5. The structural design of the device facilitates maintenance and replacement of parts, such as the wall thickness detector, thereby reducing maintenance costs and extending the service life of the device.
[0029] In summary, the design of the detection device fully considers the convenience of actual operation and the accuracy of detection, which not only improves work efficiency, but also ensures the reliability of detection data. The unique setting of the walking component and the support adjustment component enables the operator to flexibly perform multi-point detection while protecting the detection equipment from damage. In addition, the display screen and adjustable inclination design of the control panel further enhance the comfort of operation and the transparency of the detection process. The structural maintenance convenience design not only reduces the long-term use cost, but also extends the service life of the device. Therefore, the device has broad application prospects and practical value in the field of industrial gas pipeline wall thickness detection. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
