The portable ultrasonic test block and test device provided in the embodiment of the present application are used to reduce costs and work intensity, and improve detection sensitivity and detection efficiency. Petroleum and natural gas transmission steel pipes (spiral seam submerged arc welded steel pipes, straight seam submerged arc welded steel pipes, seamless steel pipes, HWF steel pipes) are the main components of the petroleum and natural gas transmission system. Manual layered ultrasonic flaw detection is required within the blind area of the pipe end (usually 200mm in length). At present, in this industry, a set of test blocks must be equipped to detect a steel pipe with a certain outer diameter and corresponding wall thickness. To detect steel pipes with multiple outer diameters and different wall thicknesses, multiple sets of test blocks must be made. According to existing industry standards, each set of test blocks needs to be made of at least 3 different depths of 1 / 4t, 1 / 2t, 3 / 4t (flat-bottom holes of different depths are made according to industry standards, where t is the wall thickness). Flat-bottomed holes. Whether fabricating or carrying multiple test blocks in a factory or on-site for construction inspection, the large number of test blocks can be burdensome, bulky, heavy, difficult to carry, and limited in coverage. This can lead to material waste, high testing costs, and high labor intensity. To address this issue, the present invention provides a portable ultrasonic test block and testing device to reduce costs and workload, while improving detection sensitivity and efficiency.
