Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nondestructive testing, and in particular to a phased array ultrasonic testing auxiliary positioning device. Background Art
[0002] At present, weld defect detection usually places a scanner equipped with a probe on the surface of the workpiece to be inspected, and then pushes the scanner to move at a constant speed along the length of the weld. The probe signal is transmitted to the phased array instrument in real time, and the structure and location of the defect can be known through the scanning map on the instrument. During the weld inspection process, if the relative position of the probe and the weld changes, it will have a very large impact on the size and position measurement of the weld defect. Among them, the standard NB / T 47013.15-2021 stipulates that "during scanning, the deviation between the actual scanning path and the intended scanning path should not exceed 5% of the probe front end distance". Especially when the probe front end distance setting value is small, the error allowed by the inspector's actual scanning path is extremely small, which brings great challenges to the inspector's operation.

The linear laser bulb 2 is coaxially provided with a limit adjustable gear 4, which passes through the first through hole 3 and is higher than the upper surface of the first body 11. The side of the second body 12 away from the first body 11 is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is provided with a first window 121.
[0005] Particularly, the first body 11 and the second body 12 intersect and form a right angle.
[0006] Particularly, a power source 5 for supplying power to the linear beam laser bulb 2 is also disposed in the first body 11 .

[0017] refer to Figure 1 A specific embodiment of the present application proposes a phased array ultrasonic detection auxiliary positioning device, the auxiliary positioning device includes a clamp 1, the clamp 1 includes a first body 11 and a second body 12, the first body 11 and the second body 12 intersect and form a certain angle, preferably a right angle. A linear beam laser bulb 2 is provided in the first body 11 and near the second body 12. The first body 11 also has a first through hole 3. The linear beam laser bulb 2 is coaxially provided with a limit adjustable gear 4, which passes through the first through hole 3 and is higher than the upper surface of the first body 11. The side of the second body 12 away from the first body 11 is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is provided with a first window 121. Furthermore, it also includes a power supply 5 for supplying power to the linear beam laser bulb 2, and the power supply 5 is arranged in the first body 11.
[0018] The method of using the auxiliary positioning device is as follows: when scanning is required, first clamp the clamp 1 of the auxiliary positioning device on the surface of the phased array ultrasonic detection probe 6 and keep the two from being displaced, and adjust the angle of the line beam laser bulb 2 by rotating the adjustable limit gear 4, so that the line beam laser emitted by the line beam laser bulb 2 is irradiated on the surface of the workpiece to be tested through the first window 121. The actual scanning path can be accurately displayed by the line beam laser, and then the front end distance of the probe can be adjusted in real time to avoid the deviation between the actual scanning path and the intended scanning path exceeding the standard requirements. During actual scanning, when the front end distance of the probe is too large or too small, the laser will deviate from the position of the intended scanning path. The probe position can be adjusted according to the fixed laser position to ensure that the deviation of the front end from the scanning path does not exceed 5% of the front end distance of the probe, thereby reducing the number of re-detection times, greatly improving the validity of the data, and improving the efficiency of on-site detection.
[0019] Implementation Example 1
[0020] 1. Set the probe front end distance in the phased array instrument according to the on-site workpiece parameters. For example, the probe front end distance from the weld center is set to -20mm.
[0021] 2. Clamp the auxiliary positioning device stably above the probe with the clamp, measure the position 20mm from the front end of the probe with a ruler, and rotate the limit adjustable gear to fix the position of the beam laser at 20mm from the front end of the probe.
[0022] 3. Before scanning, when determining the intended scanning path, adjust the probe position to ensure that the linear laser is always located in the center of the weld.
[0023] 4. During scanning, visually check the position of the line beam laser. When the line beam laser position deviates from the center of the weld, adjust the probe position in real time to return the line beam laser to the center of the weld, and ensure that the front end distance of the probe of the actual path is always maintained at -20mm from the center of the weld to meet the standard requirement of "during scanning, the deviation between the actual scanning path and the intended scanning path should not exceed 5% of the front end distance of the probe".
