Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of rapid detection of composite material reinforced structures, in particular to an ultrasonic detection device for T-shaped reinforced structures. Background Art
[0002] Composite materials are widely used in the field of civil aviation due to their advantages such as high specific strength, high specific stiffness, and high degree of structural integration. Among all composite structural parts, the wall panel structure composed of skin and long stringers is relatively typical. Among them, the composite hat-shaped long stringers have a large cross-sectional size and can form a closed section with the skin, so that the hat-shaped reinforced wall panels have good stability and can withstand high compression loads; the torsional stiffness and bending stability of the composite hat-shaped long stringers are much better than the commonly used "T" and "I" section long stringers. Therefore, many civil aircraft models such as Boeing 787 and Airbus A350 currently use a large number of composite hat-shaped reinforced wall panel structures in the fuselage.
[0003] In order to ensure the forming quality of the reinforced structure, it is necessary to conduct 100% non-destructive testing on the components. At present, the detection of T-shaped reinforcement mainly adopts manual detection method to achieve full coverage of T-shaped reinforcement. The detection method and detection trajectory are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in the figure. Due to the small detection area, the detection combination of conventional phased array probes and encoders has the problem of insufficient space. Therefore, the current main manual detection method is to use a handheld ultrasonic A-scan probe to perform a full-coverage scan of the entire area. The probe angle and position control of the handheld probe will affect the detection signal strength and detection area, thereby affecting the detection quality stability and detection efficiency.
