Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of non-destructive testing of crane steel ropes, in particular to an on-line monitoring device for damage of steel ropes of gantry cranes. Background Technique

[0002] At present, the steel rope of a crane, as a key component connecting the crane and the object to be lifted, undertakes the tasks of lifting and hanging heavy objects. Among them, the stability and reliability of the steel rope are directly related to the safety of the lifting operation. During long-term use, due to reasons such as wear, fatigue, corrosion, and deformation, the steel rope is prone to various types of damage such as broken wires, reduced rope diameter, and extrusion of rope strands, resulting in a decrease in the load-bearing capacity of the steel rope. Therefore, if the damage cannot be detected and processed in time, the steel rope will eventually break during the process of lifting goods, leading to serious safety accidents.

[0003] In the prior art, the common methods for non-destructive testing of steel ropes usually include two types: strong magnetic flux leakage testing and weak magnetic remanence testing. Among them, the strong magnetic flux leakage testing method for steel ropes has certain advantages in detecting surface and near-surface damage of steel ropes. However, the sensitivity of flux leakage testing is affected by various factors, including the magnetism of the steel rope, surface state, nature of the defect, and magnetization intensity. Therefore, in some cases, if the magnetic permeability of the defect is similar to that of the surrounding material, or the defect is very small, it is impossible to generate enough magnetic flux leakage fields for detection. At the same time, for internal defects far from the surface, since the magnetic field distortion is mainly reflected around the defect, and no obvious magnetic flux leakage field may be generated on the surface of the workpiece, it is also difficult to be detected. In addition, since the magnetic field intensity applied to the steel rope by strong magnetic flux leakage testing is very large, it cannot meet the on-line monitoring during the normal operation of the steel rope. Among them, the weak magnetic remanence testing method has high sensitivity to minor damage of the steel rope and can realize on-line monitoring of the steel rope. However, this method is easily interfered by other magnetic objects in the surrounding environment, such as nearby ferromagnetic materials and electromagnetic devices. And, under high-speed operation, if the magnetization degree of the steel rope is insufficient, the signal acquisition and analysis ability is poor, thus unable to ensure the accuracy of the detection results.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide an on-line monitoring device for damage of steel ropes of gantry cranes, which can monitor in real time the situation where the load-bearing capacity of the steel rope decreases due to internal damage caused by cracks, corrosion, fatigue, etc. under the condition that the crane is working normally, has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.

[0039] In view of the shortcomings of the existing strong magnetic and weak magnetic detection wire ropes, this application realizes online monitoring of wire rope damage based on the principle of acoustic emission. The acoustic emission phenomenon refers to the stress wave generated by the rapid release of strain energy caused by crack expansion, plastic deformation or phase change in the material, and propagates in the material in the form of elastic waves. Specifically, acoustic emission detection receives and converts the sound wave signal into an electrical signal, and realizes detection by identifying the relationship between the characteristic parameters of the signal and the material damage. The probe used in the common acoustic emission detection is a piezoelectric ultrasonic probe. During the detection, the probe needs to be in direct contact with the surface of the material to be detected, and a coupling agent needs to be applied to the contact surface between the probe and the material to be detected to increase the transmission of the sound wave. The surface of the steel wire rope for cranes is covered with gullies and has a large roughness. During the process of crane lifting goods, the steel wire rope moves rapidly. The acoustic emission probe using direct contact will cause serious wear on the probe surface, reducing the life of the probe and the coupling effect is also poor.

[0040] This application uses an electromagnetic ultrasonic probe as the sound - electricity conversion medium for the acoustic emission detection of steel ropes; the electromagnetic ultrasonic probe can receive the acoustic emission signals of steel ropes under non - contact conditions; for the selection of the detection position, it is necessary to be as close as possible to the acoustic emission source to improve the detection sensitivity. When the crane hoists goods, the steel rope is in a tensioned state. When the goods are lifted or lowered, the steel rope winds tightly or loosely around the drum as the drum rotates; the steel rope at the contact position with the drum is subject to both tensile stress and bending stress while being stressed, and the stress state is very complex. If there are defects inside the steel rope, acoustic emission signals are most likely to be excited at this position; therefore, the detection position of this application is selected at the contact position between the steel rope and the drum.

[0048] The control chip ESP32S3 calculates the moving direction and moving speed of the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe 8 according to the received encoder signal, and sends the control signal to the probe drive system;

[0049] The probe drive system drives the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe 8 to move and ensures that the monitoring probe always corresponds to the wire rope winding point;

[0054] Compared with the prior art, the on-line monitoring device for wire rope damage of the gantry crane described in the embodiment of the present utility model has the following advantages:

[0055] In the on-line monitoring device for wire rope damage of the gantry crane provided by the embodiment of the present utility model, driven by the motor 1, the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe 8 continuously moves along with the winding of the wire rope, and always keeps following the contact position between the wire rope and the reel 3; at the same time, the encoder assembly module 5 (roller encoder) is used to contact the side wheels on both sides of the reel 3, and the encoder rotates as the reel 3 rotates.

The remote computer monitoring system 12 is installed with upper computer software for analyzing the received acoustic emission signal and judging the damage condition of the wire rope.

[0056] In actual application, such asFigures 1-3 As shown in the figure, the on-line monitoring device for the damage of the steel wire rope of the gantry crane provided by the embodiment of the present utility model may further include: a chassis 13, and the chassis 13 can be used to fixedly support the whole set of monitoring devices; the bottom of the chassis 13 can be connected to the metal structure of the crane through anchor bolts, and the top can be connected to the feet and brackets 4 of the motor 1 through fastening bolts, so as to provide support for the motor 1 and the bracket 4.

[0057] Among them, as Figures 1-3 shown, the above encoder assembly module 5 may include: a roller encoder 51, the roller encoder 51 can be inserted into the central hole of the support frame 52, and the fastening screw 54 can pass through the positioning hole of the support frame 52 and be screwed into the positioning hole of the roller encoder 51, so as to realize the fixation of the roller encoder 51 and the support frame 52;

[0059] During use, the roller 53 is in direct contact with the side surface of the drum 3, the rotation of the drum 3 drives the rotation of the roller 53, which in turn drives the rotation of the roller encoder 51, and then the roller encoder 51 sends the rotation information of the drum 3 to the control chip ESP32S3 of the wireless signal transmission module 11.

[0060] Specifically, as Figures 1-3 shown, the bottom end of the above bracket 4 can be connected to the chassis 13 through bolts, the top end of the bracket 4 can be connected to the support frame 52 of the encoder assembly module 5 through bolts, and the connection hole of the bracket 4 can be connected to the lead screw 6 through bolts.

[0061] Further, as Figures 1-3 shown, the above linear motor 7 and the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe 8 can be connected by threads, and the external module of the linear motor 7 may further include: a power supply and a control system, and the control system receives the control instructions sent by the control chip ESP32S3 of the wireless signal transmission module 11 to drive the linear motor 7 to rotate forward and backward.

[0062] Further, the above signal filtering and amplifying module 9 may be provided with an OPA2171 chip, an LT1568 chip, and an AD8031 chip. The OPA2171 chip can be used to amplify the received acoustic emission signal (for example: perform two-stage amplification with a total amplification factor of 10 times). The LT1568 chip can be used to filter the amplified signal (for example: perform low-pass and high-pass filtering simultaneously, with a low-pass filtering frequency of 10 MHz and a high-pass filtering frequency of 200 kHz). The AD8031 chip can be used to organize and regulate the signal that has undergone amplification and filtering processing. The two lead-out wires of the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe 8 are respectively connected to the IN port and the ground. The acoustic emission signal collected by the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe 8 is input between the IN port and the signal ground and output between the OUT port and the signal ground.

[0063] Still further, the above signal acquisition module 10 may be provided with an ADA4932 chip, two AD7626 chips. The ADA4932 chip can be used to convert the acoustic emission signal from a single-ended signal to a differential signal.

The CNV-, CNV+, D-, and D+ pins of the AD7626 chip are respectively connected to the IO18, IO5, IO17, and IO16 pins of the control chip ESP32S3. The IO32, IO33, and IO25 pins of the control chip ESP32S3 are respectively connected to the A, B, and Z output leads of the roller encoder to receive the output signal of the encoder. According to the ratio of the diameters of the roller and the side wheel of the reel in the encoder assembly module, the number of revolutions of the reel is calculated, and then the moving distance of the linear motor is calculated. At the beginning of the monitoring, the linear motor is manually adjusted to drive the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe to move to the winding point of the steel wire rope on the drum. When the crane starts to work, the reel rotates one circle, the steel wire rope winds one circle on it, and the linear motor drives the electromagnetic ultrasonic monitoring probe to move a distance equal to the diameter of the steel wire rope. The IO26 and IO27 of the control chip ESP32S3 are connected to the DIR+ and DIR- of the control system of the linear motor to respectively control the forward and reverse rotations of the linear motor.
