The driven gear 6 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating rod 7. The outer surface of the driven gear 6 meshes with the outer surface of the driving gear 5. The swinging rod 8 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating rod 7. The swinging rod 8 is located between the two mounting columns 2. The rotating rod 7 is stuck inside the mounting column 2 and rotates, so that the swinging rod 8 is stuck between the two mounting columns 2 and swings. When the driving gear 5 rotates, it drives the driven gear 6 to rotate.
[0026] In order to facilitate the control of the phased array ultrasonic detector 84 to perform circular motion around the middle small-diameter pipe, a fixed ring 81 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the swinging rod 8. A rotating toothed ring 82 is rotatably connected inside the fixed ring 81. A rotating ring 83 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the rotating toothed ring 82.
