Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of weld detection, in particular to a robot for wall weld detection. Background Art

[0002] Welding quality inspection refers to the inspection of welding results, with the aim of ensuring the integrity, reliability, safety and practicality of the welded structure. In addition to the requirements for welding technology and welding process, welding quality inspection is also an important part of welded structure quality management. The general weld inspection method is to manually inspect the weld position through a flaw detector, but the manual inspection method has certain limitations. For example, when a steel plate welded part is used as a wall, the height position of its weld may exceed the manual inspection range. At this time, the inspector needs to use a ladder to complete the flaw detection work. The ladder needs to be moved repeatedly during the process, which is cumbersome and reduces the overall inspection efficiency of the weld.

[0003] There are related wall weld inspection robots in the prior art, which drive the flaw detector to move on the wall by setting a lifting mechanism and a moving mechanism, thereby completing the inspection of the wall weld. However, there are still the following problems in its use:

[0004] In the flaw detector, the detection of the weld is completed by contacting the detection probe with the surface of the steel plate. A coupling agent needs to be added between the probe and the steel plate to ensure the effectiveness of the flaw detection. However, the existing wall weld inspection robot lacks a specific structure that can realize the addition of coupling agent.

[0005] The direction of the weld on the steel plate surface determines the direction of the probe. Generally, the detection direction of the probe needs to be perpendicular to the length of the weld. However, the detection angle of the existing wall weld detection robot is fixed, so it has limitations during use. Utility Model Content
