Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ray detection of weld parts, and in particular relates to a weld detection method for pipe ring parts based on external vertical irradiation of a single wall and single shadow by a source. Background Art
[0002] At present, small diameter pipe girth welds generally refer to pipe welds with an outer diameter of ≤100mm. Such small diameter pipe girth weld parts are widely used in the power, petrochemical, aviation and other industries. In aircraft manufacturing, aircraft maintenance, missiles and other aircraft manufacturing, small diameter pipe girth weld parts are important parts of flight control systems and hydraulic systems such as aviation boosters, actuators, and accumulators. Small diameter pipe girth weld parts are mainly used for the transportation of oil, combustible gas, steam and reaction liquids, heat exchange and cooling piping and connecting pipes, aviation actuators, aviation hydraulic parts, etc. A large part of them work in harsh environments of high temperature and high pressure corrosive media, and the welds are the weak links in the parts. Once leakage or damage occurs, the losses are very huge. Film radiography is one of the most widely used and mature means of small diameter pipe girth welds.
[0003] Small diameter pipe ring weld is a special workpiece with large penetration ratio. Its weld radiography is a special variable cross-section work radiography problem. The radiography methods currently used are elliptical imaging penetration method (double wall double shadow method) and source outside vertical penetration single wall single shadow method. For aviation parts, the source outside vertical penetration single wall single shadow method should be preferred, because the penetration thickness of the source outside vertical penetration single wall single shadow method is single wall, while the penetration thickness of the elliptical imaging penetration method is double wall. In terms of sensitivity, the source outside vertical penetration single wall single shadow method has more advantages. For example, when the double wall double shadow is used for the ring weld with a wall thickness of 8mm, the penetration wall thickness is 16mm. The single wall image quality index that needs to be found during A-level detection is #13 wire. However, the double wall image quality index that needs to be found during A-level detection is #12 wire. In terms of sensitivity, the sensitivity of single wall penetration is higher than that of double wall double shadow. When double-wall radiography is performed on small-diameter pipe welds, the large change in radiographic thickness leads to large changes in image blackness and geometric unsharpness. In addition, the image opening width needs to be adjusted for double-wall and double-image radiography, and the image opening width directly affects the observable image quality. More importantly, when radiography is performed at a relatively low radiographic thickness, the selected voltage must be relatively low, resulting in a larger △D (image contrast). Therefore, when radiographic conditions permit, the single-wall and single-image method with the source externally vertically should be used as the priority.
[0004] When the source is externally vertically transilluminating a single wall and a single shadow method is used, the radiation source is placed on the center line of the weld during transillumination, and the central beam of radiation points vertically to the center of the weld area being transilluminated. A lead plate must be placed on the back of the film to shield the scattered rays from other parts of the inner wall of the workpiece. However, the use of the source externally vertically transilluminating a single wall and a single shadow method will involve the following corresponding problems: relying on manual placement of film and lead sheets, a large workload, low efficiency, and a large number of feedback from workers, which will lead to inaccurate positioning, lead sheets, and film shedding, resulting in repeated transillumination rework and other problems, unclear imaging, and greater human influence, and extremely poor stability. In addition, only one weld can be transilluminated at a time, resulting in low work efficiency. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a weld detection method for pipe ring parts based on external vertical single-wall single-shadow radiographic source, aiming at performing radiographic detection efficiently and conveniently.
[0006] The present invention is mainly achieved through the following technical solutions: The weld detection method of a pipe ring part based on a source vertically penetrating a single wall and a single shadow outside includes the following steps: Step S1: According to the radiographic inspection standard GJB1187A, determine the number of times N of exposure and the effective exposure length L of the corresponding pipe ring parts; Step S2: placing the pipe ring part in the effective transillumination area, placing the pipe ring part on two arc-shaped seats with equal arcs, and then fixing the pipe ring part with a dividing disk, wherein the circumferential side of the dividing disk is provided with two dividing circle parallel axes parallel to the pipe ring part, and the area between two adjacent dividing circle parallel axes is the single exposure observation area; Step S3: Then, the corresponding exposure length L of the film detection system tooling is used, and the film detection system tooling is inserted into the pipe ring part in parallel, and lead foil is set at the corresponding weld of the film detection system tooling inside the pipe ring part; by rotating the film detection system tooling and rotating the turntable on the dividing disk, 360° film-type source external single-wall exposure X-ray detection of the pipe ring part is realized.
[0007] In order to better realize the present invention, further, in the step S1, according to the requirements and grade requirements of the standards such as GJB1187A for radiographic inspection of small-diameter pipe welds, the ratio D / F of the corresponding outer circle size D to the focal length F, the ratio T / D of the wall thickness T to the outer circle size D are determined according to the inner and outer circle sizes, wall thickness, effective penetration area, and focal length, and the number of penetrations N and the effective penetration length L of the corresponding pipe ring parts are obtained.
[0008] In order to better realize the present invention, further, the drilling holes of the graduated disk are divided according to the number of times N of the transillumination of the pipe ring part; and the outer diameter of the pipe ring part is equal to the inner diameter of the graduated disk.
[0009] In order to better realize the present invention, it is further applied to small-diameter pipe girth weld parts, and the outer diameter of the small-diameter pipe girth weld is ≤100mm.
[0010] In order to better realize the present invention, further, the small-diameter pipe ring weld parts have two welds with an outer diameter of 500mm, an outer diameter of 95mm, an inner diameter of 85mm, a wall thickness of 10mm, and a focal length of 1200mm.
[0011] In order to better implement the present invention, the following steps are further included: Step T1: According to the radiographic inspection standard GJB1187A, firstly, the effective irradiation area is calculated to be 600 mm, the ratio of the outer diameter D to the actual focal length F is 0.086, and the ratio of the wall thickness T to the outer diameter D is 0.105; the irradiation area required for the small-diameter pipe ring weld parts needs to be placed within the effective area of 600 mm; the standard shows that the number of irradiations is 7, and the effective irradiation length L is calculated to be 43 mm; Step T2: Then, make a graduated disc with an outer diameter of 95+0.5 mm, drill holes in the graduated disc and divide it into equal parts, and make a dedicated graduated circle parallel axis on the graduated disc to ensure that small-diameter pipe ring weld parts do not slide during the entire flaw detection process; Step T3: Then, the corresponding shaft is put through the middle of the adjacent arc seats to fix them; small-diameter pipe ring weld parts are placed on the two Φ100 arc seats; Step T4: Make a Φ80mm film detection system tooling and arrange lead sheets at the corresponding positions of the welds; by rotating the dividing disk and replacing the film on the film detection system tooling, realize the 0° film source external single-wall radiographic detection of the girth welds of small-diameter pipe girth weld parts.
[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) The present invention has the advantages of accurate and reliable positioning, simple structure, and convenient installation and disassembly. It is generally applicable to the radiation detection of film-type sources of various sizes, lengths, and different single-wall transillumination. It does not need to consider tooling separately. It has strong versatility and can quickly and correctly position and fix the film, reducing the labor intensity and the requirements for the technical level of workers. It solves the problems of film-type source single-wall transillumination radiation detection requiring manual marking, manual plugging of the film, unclear transillumination, and low sensitivity. The present invention overcomes the problems of long workpiece detection time, large workload, low efficiency, and extremely poor stability in existing detection.
[0013] (2) The present invention has the advantages of simple structure, convenient installation and disassembly, and strong versatility. The present invention adopts two arc-shaped seats that are fixedly connected to the bottom plate and distributed along the length direction and connected together with two fixed shafts to prevent the parts from sliding. Then the parts are placed on the base, and then the dividing disk is placed on the parts, and the area corresponding to the parallel axes of the two dividing circles is used as the area to be observed for a single exposure. Then, a film detection system tooling (similar film detection system tooling can be designed and manufactured according to one weld or multiple welds) is used to place lead foil (to prevent scattered rays) in the area to be exposed. By rotating the parts, the film detection system tooling and the rotating disk on the dividing disk, 360° film-type source single-wall external transillumination of small-diameter parts can be achieved.
