Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coating and plating layer detection, and in particular to a quality inspection device and a grade detection method for a zinc plating layer on a metal material surface. Background Art
[0002] In the industrial production process, accurate detection of material thickness is a key step to ensure that product quality meets standards. In order to prevent corrosion of metal materials, paint is often sprayed on their surfaces or hot-dip galvanized. The spray coating or galvanized layer formed in this way can effectively isolate the metal material from the external environment, thereby achieving the purpose of corrosion prevention. For steel components of power grid equipment, the relevant standards clearly stipulate the anti-corrosion thickness of the galvanized layer. For production and processing, in order to meet the deadline, there may be different batches of galvanized steel parts that do not meet the thickness requirements, or there may be a layer of paint with a color similar to the galvanized layer on the galvanized layer, which is inferior to good. For product purchasers, random inspection of products will not be conducted, and each product cannot be accurately and quickly inspected by the naked eye or thickness gauge alone. Therefore, if the construction party can have a fast and miniaturized detection device, each galvanized steel part can be tested in seconds before construction and installation, and each piece can be tested before installation. Therefore, it is necessary to design such a device. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a quality inspection device for a zinc-plated layer on the surface of a metal material, and at the same time to provide a grade inspection method for an anti-corrosion layer coated on a metal material.

The host unit includes a data processing module, and the data processing module is provided with a galvanized layer quality judgment program. The galvanized layer quality judgment program performs data judgment and comparison on d1 and d2. If d2=0, d1 is compared with a preset galvanized layer thickness qualified range value. If d1 falls within the preset galvanized layer thickness qualified range, a galvanized layer thickness qualified signal is output, otherwise an unqualified signal is output and displayed on a display screen; if d2≠0, the value of d1-d2 is compared with a preset galvanized layer thickness qualified range value. If the value of d1-d2 falls within the preset galvanized layer thickness qualified range, a galvanized layer thickness qualified signal is output, otherwise an unqualified signal is output and displayed on a display screen.
[0005] Furthermore, the host unit is also provided with a storage module, which is used to store d1, d2, test time and remarks, and the remarks are inputted by using a key and a display screen.
[0006] Furthermore, a calibration module is also provided in the housing, and the calibration module is electrically connected to the host unit. The calibration module is used to perform temperature compensation on the magnetic sensor and the eddy current sensor and calibrate the data.
[0007] The data processing module includes a signal amplifying circuit, a filtering circuit and a microprocessor. The signal amplifying circuit is used to enhance the sensor signal, the filtering circuit is used to filter out the noise signal, and the microprocessor is used to perform data analysis and calculation.
[0008] Furthermore, the casing is provided with a heat dissipation port, the power module is a replaceable battery, and is provided with a voltage stabilizing circuit.
[0009] Furthermore, the host unit is also provided with a galvanized layer judgment module, which has a built-in galvanized layer magnetic sensor signal standard. The galvanized layer judgment module receives the signal of the magnetic sensor and compares it with the built-in galvanized layer magnetic sensor signal standard. If it meets the requirements, it is judged to contain a galvanized layer.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention can measure the thickness of the coating layer of metal materials with paint layers and galvanized layers, obtain the result of whether the galvanized layer is qualified, and improve the detection efficiency. The split design allows the probe to be flexibly replaced to meet the needs of different detection scenarios. The data processing module ensures the accuracy of the measurement results, and the calibration module reduces the impact of environmental factors. The intuitive operation interface and clear display reduce the difficulty of user operation. The structure is light and easy to carry, and it can be used in field operations.

[0017] Furthermore, a calibration module is also provided in the housing, and the calibration module is electrically connected to the host unit.
