Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to an X-ray flaw detection quality control technology, in particular to an X-ray flaw detection supporting tool for cylindrical welding parts. Background Art
[0002] The outer tube of a radiator is typically formed by straight-line welding along the height (length) of the tube. After welding, X-rays are used for flaw detection. For weld inspection of this type of straight-line area, the conventional process involves selecting four points on the tube wall as supports, placing the product naturally on four independent pillars, and inserting a probe through the tube hole to perform weld inspection. When placing the product and pillars, the position of the supporting pillars is often visually inspected, which can lead to them not being at the product's support points. Furthermore, products weighing over 50kg often make it difficult to adjust the pillar position during placement. There are no position limits around the product after placement, so if the probe strikes the inner wall due to an operational error, the product can easily tip over, resulting in product failure or a safety hazard.
[0003] Publicly available technologies also offer various designs for flaw detection of welded pipes. For example, patent publication number CN112881445B describes a welded pipe flaw detection clamping device comprising a support mechanism with a clamping mechanism fixedly mounted on the inner rear end of the support mechanism and a fixing mechanism slidably connected to the outer surface of the support mechanism. A motor rotates a gear, which in turn rotates a support sleeve on the outer surface of the motor, enabling a probe at the front end of an extension plate to detect the pipe. This device primarily inspects circumferential welds (pipe-to-pipe joints) on the pipe body. The probe moves along the outer surface of the pipe body and cannot inspect welds along the height of the radiator's outer cylinder. Another example is a nondestructive flaw detection device for welded pipe joints disclosed in patent publication number CN111457232A. The device comprises two stop rings and two fixed rings. Each stop ring and fixed ring has a mounting groove at one end. A stop ring is embedded in the stop groove and mounted within the groove. A gear ring is welded to the top of the stop ring within the groove. A gear engages with the top of the gear ring, and a gear groove is defined on one side of the fixed ring corresponding to the gear. A drive motor is movably mounted on one end of the fixed ring, and a drive groove is defined on one end of the gear corresponding to the output shaft of the drive motor. A horizontal support platform is mounted on one end of the gear ring via a rotating shaft, and a flaw detector is movably mounted on the top of the horizontal support platform. This device is also primarily used for flaw detection of circumferential welds on pipes. However, for heavier pipes, adjusting the standard position of the pipe is difficult due to the inconsistency between the two retaining rings (which hold the pipe) on the stop ring during installation, resulting in poor flaw detection accuracy.

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide a cylindrical welding part X-ray flaw detection support tooling, which has the characteristics of being able to quickly position the test object, meet the requirements of flaw detection of products with different diameters, and prevent products from tipping over.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical problems of the present invention are mainly solved by the following technical solutions: a cylindrical welded part X-ray flaw detection support tooling, including a chassis connected to the flaw detection equipment workbench, and a support mechanism located on the chassis, which is characterized in that the support mechanism is positioned on the chassis through an adjustment mechanism; the support mechanism includes a plurality of concentrically arranged columns, a support plate is provided at the top of the column, an anti-reversal pin is provided on the support plate, and the plane on the support plate is parallel to the bottom surface reference A of the chassis.
[0006] The adjustment mechanism includes a linear guide slider assembly located at the bottom end of the column, and a connecting rod displacement mechanism is provided in conjunction with the linear guide slider assembly and the support mechanism. The connecting rod displacement mechanism enables several supporting columns to perform translational movements along the center direction at the same time.

[0009] In the aforementioned cylindrical welded parts X-ray flaw detection support fixture, preferably, the dial is a cross-shaped rod structure, the center of the cross is the rotation center, and the four ends of the cross are respectively hinged to the arc-shaped connecting rods.
[0010] In the aforementioned cylindrical welded parts X-ray flaw detection support fixture, preferably, the turntable assembly is provided with a rotating handle.
[0011] In the aforementioned cylindrical welded parts X-ray flaw detection support fixture, preferably, the plurality of arc-shaped connecting rods are uniformly arranged in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
[0012] In the aforementioned cylindrical welded parts X-ray flaw detection support tooling, preferably, the plurality of supporting columns are evenly arranged on the chassis, and the linear guide rail slider assembly includes a guide rail and a slider, wherein all the guide rails pass through the center of the plurality of concentrically arranged supporting columns.
[0013] In the aforementioned cylindrical welded parts X-ray flaw detection support fixture, preferably, the adjustment mechanism is provided with a stop screw that cooperates with the slider, the guide rail is provided with a scale mark, and the adjustment mechanism is connected to the slider through a pad assembly.

[0017] The second is the coordinated adjustment mechanism of the support mechanism, which consists of a linear guide slider assembly and a connecting rod displacement mechanism. The support mechanism features a support plate parallel to the chassis bottom surface, ensuring the product is positioned stably on the support plate (support pad). The connecting rod displacement mechanism includes a turntable assembly (dial, curved connecting rod, etc.). Supported by the linear guide slider assembly, the support mechanism rotates the turntable assembly by rotating the handle, thereby driving the curved connecting rod. This causes the support mechanism to move inward or outward simultaneously along the linear guide slider assembly. All columns move synchronously, changing the diameter supported by the support plate to accommodate a variety of product specifications. Anti-reversal pins prevent the product from tipping over.
[0018] The third is the detailed design of key components: the turntable assembly is fixed to the chassis through a rotating shaft and bearings, the dial is a cross-hinged arc-shaped connecting rod, and the connecting rod is arranged in a uniform rotation direction to ensure synchronization; the slider is locked by a stop screw, and the guide rail is marked with scales for precise adjustment; human-machine design: a handle is provided on the edge of the chassis, and the handle is used to apply force to carry and clamp the fixture to avoid injury to the operator.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the synchronous diameter change of multiple columns can be achieved by rotating the handle, which is suitable for flaw detection operations of workpieces with different diameters, and the adjustment speed is fast; the guide rail scale cooperates with the stop screw to ensure the accuracy of the support position, and the support plate is parallel to the reference plane A, which ensures the quality of flaw detection imaging and achieves high-precision positioning; the anti-reverse pin and the support rubber pad prevent the workpiece from sliding, and the cross dial structure is evenly stressed to avoid unilateral deviation, with strong stability, safety and reliability.
