Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rail detection equipment, in particular to an eddy current detection device for efficient rail flaw detection. Background Technique
[0002] The rail eddy current detection device is mainly used to detect defects in rails to ensure the safety of railway operation. This device uses eddy current detection technology to nondestructively evaluate certain properties of conductive materials and their workpieces or detect defects by measuring the changes in the induced eddy currents in the workpiece to be inspected. At present in China, it mainly relies on the daily inspections of track inspectors. Although some detection instruments have been developed, they either have low sensitivity or can only detect fractures but not cracks.
[0003] For example, the publication number CN201620684577.3 discloses "Rail Crack Detector". Since an eddy current sensor is used for crack detection, it not only has high sensitivity but also can detect fine cracks in the rail. Moreover, the detection device has a simple structure and is easy to use. And it adopts double-rail simultaneous detection, which greatly improves the detection efficiency. There are two detection heads arranged in front and behind each rail, which greatly reduces the missed detection rate. It is an economically applicable rail crack detector for the current railway department.
[0004] The eddy current detection process of the rail is completed by an eddy current detector. However, currently, the eddy current detector is usually only used by lying flat on a platform for work. When vibrations occur, it will lead to the uncertainty of eddy current data detection, thereby affecting the detection effect of the eddy current detector on the rail. Content of the Utility Model
