[0033] The following will be combined with the specific embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] Metal pipes 4 are widely used in industries such as petroleum, natural gas, and chemicals to transport materials. The material of these pipes varies depending on the medium being transported, such as carbon steel or stainless steel. To enhance their corrosion resistance, they are often coated with a protective layer.
[0035] Since the material transportation distance is usually long and the length of a single steel pipe is limited, multiple steel pipes need to be connected by welding to meet the length requirements of the actual project. A circular weld 401 is generated at the connection position of two adjacent steel pipes.
[0036] During the welding process, if the welding parameters are improperly controlled or the operation is not standardized, defects such as cracks, slag inclusions, and lack of fusion may occur, causing damage to the structural strength and sealing of the metal pipe 4, affecting the transportation of materials.
[0037] A pipeline annular weld detection device of the present invention comprises a guide rail 1, a traveling mechanism 2, a radiographic imaging mechanism 3 and a ray generating device, and uses the DR detection (Digital Radiography) principle to detect the weld 401.
[0038] The radiographic imaging mechanism 3 and the radiation generating device are arranged relative to the axis of the metal pipe 4. The X-rays emitted by the radiation generating device penetrate the weld 401 and are received by the radiographic imaging mechanism 3. An image that can reflect the state of the weld 401 is formed by digital-to-electrical conversion, thereby realizing non-destructive testing of the weld 401.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the guide rail 1 is fixed around the circumference of the metal pipe 4 and is located next to the weld 401. The walking mechanism 2 is set on the guide rail 1. There are two walking mechanisms 2. A radiographic imaging mechanism 3 is fixed on one walking mechanism 2, and a radiation generating device is fixed on the other walking mechanism 2. The two walking mechanisms 2 move synchronously on the guide rail 1, so that the radiographic imaging mechanism 3 can receive complete weld 401 information to perform a comprehensive inspection of the annular weld 401.
[0040] like Figure 9 As shown, the guide rail 1 is composed of a steel belt and connectors. The steel belt is bendable and fits around the circumference of the metal pipe 4. The connectors are used to tighten the ends of the steel belt to secure it to the metal pipe 4. The guide rail 1 then provides a circular path for the traveling mechanism 2, allowing the traveling mechanism 2 to move along the circular path.
[0041] The outer diameter of the metal pipe 4 is usually large. In order to improve the installation convenience of the detection device, the guide rail 1 should be installed on the metal pipe 4 first, and then the walking mechanism 2 equipped with the radiation imaging mechanism 3 and the radiation generating device should be installed on the guide rail 1.
[0042] like Figure 6As shown, the walking mechanism 2 includes a frame 21, a plurality of fixed wheels 22 and a movable wheel 23. The fixed wheels 22 and the movable wheels 23 are both rotatably set on the frame 21. The movable wheels 23 are spaced apart from the fixed wheels 22, and the distance between the movable wheels 23 and the fixed wheels 22 is adjustable. When installing the walking mechanism 2, first increase the distance between the fixed wheels 22 and the movable wheels 23 so that the distance between the two is greater than the width of the guide rail 1, then move the walking mechanism 2 to the position of the guide rail 1, and finally reduce the distance between the fixed wheels 22 and the movable wheels 23 so that the fixed wheels 22 and the movable wheels 23 are against the two ends of the guide rail 1, and then the walking mechanism 2 can be installed on the guide rail 1.
[0043] The frame 21 is equipped with a motor, and the fixed wheel 22 is connected to the output end of the motor. When the motor is started, the fixed wheel 22 is driven to rotate, and the friction between the fixed wheel 22 and the guide rail 1 is used to drive the walking mechanism 2 to move on the guide rail 1.
[0044] The radiation imaging mechanism 3 and the radiation generating device are heavy. In order to prevent the traveling mechanism 2 from slipping when moving on the guide rail 1, it is preferred to open a circle of tooth grooves 101 on the guide rail 1, set the fixed wheel 22 as a gear, and let the fixed wheel 22 engage with the guide rail 1, thereby improving the movement stability of the traveling mechanism 2 and the connection reliability of the traveling mechanism 2 and the guide rail 1.
[0045] As a preferred embodiment, the frame 21 includes a frame body 211, a rotating seat 212, an adjustment handle 213 and a gas spring 214. Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the imaging plate 31 is fixedly arranged on the frame 211, the fixed wheel 22 is rotatably arranged on the frame 211, the rotating seat 212 is rotatably arranged on the frame 211, and the movable wheel 23 is rotatably arranged on the rotating seat 212. The rotating axis of the rotating seat 212 does not coincide with the rotating axis of the movable wheel 23. When the rotating seat 212 is rotated, the movable wheel 23 can be rotated around the rotating axis of the rotating seat 212, thereby adjusting the distance between the movable wheel 23 and the fixed wheel 22.
[0046] The adjusting handle 213 is rotatably mounted on the frame 211, and the gas spring 214 is rotatably mounted between the adjusting handle 213 and the rotating seat 212. Figure 7 As shown, when the adjustment handle 213 is rotated counterclockwise, the swivel seat 212 is driven to rotate counterclockwise, thereby increasing the distance between the movable wheel 23 and the fixed wheel 22, so that the distance between the movable wheel 23 and the fixed wheel 22 is greater than the width of the guide rail 1, so that the walking mechanism 2 is installed on the guide rail 1; when the fixed wheel 22 and the movable wheel 23 are located on both sides of the guide rail 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 7As shown, by rotating the adjusting handle 213 clockwise, the movable wheel 23 and the fixed wheel 22 can squeeze the guide rail 1; wherein, by limiting the connection position between the gas spring 214 and the adjusting handle 213 and the connection position between the adjusting handle 213 and the frame 211, when the guide rail 1 is located between the movable wheel 23 and the fixed wheel 22, the gas spring 214 will apply elastic force to the swivel seat 212, so that the movable wheel 23 is close to the guide rail 1, so as to improve the connection reliability between the walking mechanism 2 and the guide rail 1.
[0047] The frame 211 includes two curvature adjustment plates 2111 , a battery box 2112 and a control box 2113 . The control box 2113 is installed with relevant control circuits and signal conversion circuits. The battery box 2112 is installed with quick-release batteries to power relevant components.
[0048] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the two curvature adjustment plates 2111 are parallel and spaced apart, the battery box 2112 and the control box 2113 are fixedly arranged between the two curvature adjustment plates 2111, and the battery box 2112 and the control box 2113 are arranged opposite to each other, and their weights are comparable to maintain the balance of the walking mechanism 2.
[0049] A fixed wheel 22 and a movable wheel 23 are respectively provided on the battery box 2112 and the control box 2113 , and the fixed wheel 22 corresponds to the movable wheel 23 one by one.
[0050] The curvature adjustment plate 2111 is an arc-shaped plate-like mechanism. By setting the curvature of the curvature adjustment plate 2111, the battery box 2112 and the control box 2113 can be tilted accordingly so that the angle between the two fixed wheels 22 and the two movable wheels 23 adapts to the curvature of the guide rail 1, that is, the walking mechanism 2 adapts to the outer diameter of the metal pipe 4 required for detection.
[0051] When the specifications of the metal pipe 4 being inspected change, the radius of the guide rail 1 will change. It is necessary not only to select a curvature adjustment plate 2111 with a corresponding curvature, but also to adjust the inclination angles of the battery box 2112 and the control box 2113 to make the fixed wheel 22 and the movable wheel 23 adapt to the curvature of the guide rail 1, but also to adjust the distance between the X-ray imaging mechanism 3 and the metal pipe 4 to ensure that the detection device can detect the welds 401 of metal pipes 4 of different specifications.
[0052] In order to improve the practicality of the detection device, a wireless network transmission module and a touch display screen are also set up. The wireless network transmission module is built into the walking mechanism 2 or the X-ray imaging mechanism 3 and is electrically connected to the relevant circuits, so that the relevant components of the detection device can be directly connected to the network, solving network problems caused by on-site interference or excessive distance.
[0053] The touch screen is fixedly set on the control box 2113 on the walking mechanism 2, and is electrically connected to the control circuit and information acquisition module in the control box 2113. Not only can the corresponding collection information and the operating status of the device be displayed through the touch screen, but the detection device can also be directly started or controlled through the touch screen, which greatly improves the convenience of use of the detection device.
[0054] The radiographic imaging mechanism 3 includes an imaging plate 31, a plurality of side ribs 32, a protective plate 33, a bolt 34 and a balance wheel 35. The imaging plate 31 is used to receive the radiation emitted by the radiation generating device. The imaging plate 31 is fixedly arranged on the walking mechanism 2 and corresponds to the position of the weld 401. The protective plate 33 is arranged on the imaging plate 31 to protect the side of the imaging plate 31 close to the metal pipe 4 to prevent sand and gravel and other objects from splashing into the space between the imaging plate 31 and the metal pipe 4 and causing damage to the imaging plate 31.
[0055] When the distance between the radiographic imaging mechanism 3 and the metal pipe 4 needs to be adjusted, it is only necessary to adjust the distance between the imaging plate 31 and the metal pipe 4 , such as by making the relative position of the imaging plate 31 and the frame 211 adjustable, using a structure such as an oblong hole.
[0056] The side ribs 32 and the bolts 34 are used to provide installation space for the protection plate 33. The side ribs 32 are fixed on the peripheral side of the imaging plate 31. The connection between the side ribs 32 and the imaging plate 31 is provided with a threaded hole 301. Figure 4 As shown, the protective plate 33 is set against the imaging plate 31, the bolt 34 passes through the protective plate 33, and is connected to the threaded hole 301 through threaded fitting, and the screw head of the bolt 34 presses the side of the protective plate 33 away from the imaging plate 31, thereby fixing the protective plate 33 and the imaging plate 31.
[0057] In order to facilitate the processing of the side ribs 32 , it is preferred that the side ribs 32 and the imaging plate 31 are integrally formed.
[0058] The side ribs 32 provide space for the threaded hole 301, which not only avoids interference between the threaded hole 301 and related components inside the imaging plate 31, but also reduces the overall occupied space of the X-ray imaging mechanism 3, helps to achieve a lightweight design of the X-ray imaging mechanism 3, and makes the carrying and transportation of the detection device easier.
[0059] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the side ribs 32 are longitudinal protruding structures that can act as reinforcing ribs to enhance the structural strength of the imaging board 31, thereby helping to improve the protective effect of the imaging board 31 and extend the service life of the imaging board 31. At the same time, the side ribs 32 also increase the heat dissipation area of the imaging board 31, thereby achieving a good heat dissipation effect.
[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, the middle position of the side rib 32 is a circular portion, and the two end positions of the side rib 32 are arc-shaped portions. One end of the arc-shaped portion is tangent to the circular portion, and the other end is tangent to the imaging plate 31, forming a continuous and smooth surface, which is not only beneficial to increase the heat dissipation area, but also helps to protect the operator and avoid scratching the operator.
[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, the side ribs 32 and the protective plate 33 are spaced apart. When the bolts 34 are rotated to fix the protective plate 33, the position of the bolts 34 can be observed in real time from the space between the side ribs 32 and the protective plate 33, so that the bolts 34 can be quickly aligned with the threaded holes 301, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the bolts 34 and the protective plate 33; when the bolts 34 are tightened, if the depth of the bolts 34 screwed into the threaded holes 301 is too great, the protective plate 33 will bend toward the space, and the bolts 34 will not damage the protective plate 33. At the same time, the support of the bolts 34 to the protective plate 33 can also be observed through the space, so that the installed protective plate 33 will not bend, but will fit on the imaging plate 31.
[0062] The reliability of the threaded connection is not very high. During the use of the device, problems such as thread slippage may occur between the bolt 34 and the threaded hole 301. If the device is repaired, it will affect the inspection progress of the metal pipe 4 and affect the inspection period.
[0063] When the above-mentioned thread failure phenomena such as thread stripping occur, Figure 4 As shown, the bolt 34 can be manually inserted into the threaded hole 301 and allowed to rest against the lower side of the protective plate 33. Then, a tool can be used to strike the lower side of the side rib 32 to deform it and clamp the bolt 34, thereby achieving emergency fixation of the protective plate 33.
[0064] The structure of the protruding side rib 32 is relatively weak, and it is easier to be deformed by knocking. There is a gap between the end of the side rib 32 close to the protective plate 33 and the protective plate 33, so knocking on it will not cause damage to the protective plate 33.
[0065] like Figure 5 As shown, the threaded hole 301 includes a first enclosing groove 3011 and a second enclosing groove 3012. The first enclosing groove 3011 is opened on the imaging board 31, and the second enclosing groove 3012 is opened on the side rib 32. The second enclosing groove 3012 and the first enclosing groove 3011 are enclosed to form the threaded hole 301, and the cross-sectional area of the second enclosing groove 3012 is not larger than the cross-sectional area of the first enclosing groove 3011, so that the bolt 34 has a better connection with the imaging board 31 with greater structural strength.
[0066] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, one side of the imaging plate 31 is connected to the traveling mechanism 2 to form a cantilever structure, and the balance wheel 35 is rotatably arranged on the side of the imaging plate 31 away from the traveling mechanism 2 and abuts against the side wall of the metal pipe 4, thereby protecting the imaging plate 31 and preventing the imaging plate 31 from contacting the side wall of the metal pipe 4.
[0067] The outer shells of all components of this detection device are made of aluminum alloy material in one piece, which not only further improves the portability of the detection device, but also protects the relevant components, solves the heat dissipation problem of the device, and ensures the normal operation of the device in a high temperature environment.
[0068] The method for using the pipeline annular weld detection device of the present invention is as follows:
[0069] S1 , surround and fix the guide rail 1 on the metal pipe 4 , and place the guide rail 1 on one side of the weld 401 .
[0070] S2, increase the distance between the movable wheel 23 and the fixed wheel 22 by rotating the adjustment handle 213, then place the walking mechanism 2 on the guide rail 1, and rotate the adjustment handle 213 in the opposite direction to make the movable wheel 23 press against the guide rail 1, so that the walking mechanism 2 and the guide rail 1 are fixed.
[0071] S3, repeat S2, respectively fix the traveling mechanism 2 equipped with the radiographic imaging mechanism 3 and the traveling mechanism 2 equipped with the radiation generating device on the guide rail 1, and set the radiographic imaging mechanism 3 and the radiation generating device relative to the axis of the metal pipe 4.
[0072] S4, start the traveling mechanism 2, and let the two traveling mechanisms 2 rotate synchronously along the guide rail 1 to detect the annular weld 401.
[0073] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
