[0039] The embodiments of the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, so they are only examples and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0040] Embodiment:

[0041] As shown Figure 1 in the figure, the utility model provides an ultrasonic automatic detection device for steel structure welds, which includes a climbing robot 101. A robotic arm 102 is installed on the climbing robot 101. An installation base 103 is arranged at the end of the robotic arm 102. An ultrasonic detection probe 104 is arranged on the installation base 103. During use, the climbing robot 101 can be controlled to climb on the steel structure to move the ultrasonic detection probe 104 to a higher position, so that it is not necessary to manually hold the ultrasonic detection probe 104 for detection, improving the safety during the detection of steel structures. The specific structures of the climbing robot 101, the robotic arm 102, and the ultrasonic detection probe 104 are prior arts and will not be elaborated here.

[0042] As shown Figure 2 in 3 the figure, in this embodiment, an installation shell 201 is arranged on the climbing robot 101. A coating seat 301 is rotatably arranged on the installation shell 201. A driving component connected to the coating seat 301 is arranged on the installation shell 201. The coating seat 301 can be driven to rotate through the driving component. The driving component includes a first gear 302 arranged at the bottom of the coating seat 301. A second gear 304 is rotatably arranged on the installation shell 201. The second gear 304 meshes with the first gear 302. A driving motor 303 is arranged on the installation shell 201. The output shaft of the driving motor 303 is connected to the second gear 304. A first switch 305 protruding outward is arranged on the installation shell 201. The first switch 305 is electrically connected to the driving motor 303. The installation base 103 can abut against the first switch 305.

[0043] When it is necessary to apply a coupling agent to the ultrasonic detection probe 104, the robotic arm 102 can be controlled to move so that the ultrasonic detection probe 104 moves into the coating seat 301. When the ultrasonic detection probe 104 moves, the installation base 103 can abut against the first switch 305 to start the driving motor 303. The driving motor 303 controls the second gear 304 to rotate, and then controls the overall rotation of the coating seat 301 through the meshing of the second gear 304 and the first gear 302.

[0044] As shown Figure 2 in 3As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a coating assembly is provided inside the coating seat 301. When the coating seat 301 rotates, it drives the coating assembly to rotate. A supply assembly is provided inside the installation shell 201, and the coupling agent is transported to the coating assembly through the supply assembly. The supply assembly includes a storage bottle 202 provided inside the installation shell 201. A connected supply pipe 204 is provided on the storage bottle 202. The other end of the supply pipe 204 is connected to the coating assembly, and a supply pump 203 is provided on the supply pipe 204. The supply pump 203 can be controlled to start to extract the coupling agent in the storage bottle 202 and transport it into the supply assembly for the supply of the coupling agent.

[0045] As Figures 1 to 3 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the coating assembly includes a supply frame 401 provided inside the coating seat 301. The supply frame 401 is rotatably and sealingly connected to one end of the supply pipe 204. Multiple groups of supply heads 402 are provided on the supply frame 401. A receiving seat 501 is provided in the coating seat 301 in a liftable manner. Multiple through holes 502 are provided on the receiving seat 501. The supply heads 402 slide through the through holes 502. A coating block 503 made of a flexible material is provided on the receiving seat 501. A second switch 403 is provided on the supply frame 401, and the second switch 403 can be in contact with the receiving seat 501. An elastic member 504 is provided between the supply frame 401 and the receiving seat 501.

[0046] After the ultrasonic detection probe 104 moves into the coating seat 301 and continues to move downward, it can drive the receiving seat 501 to descend in the coating seat 301 to trigger the second switch 403, and then the supply of the coupling agent can be carried out. During the descent of the receiving seat 501, the supply heads 402 can extend out of the through holes 502. The coupling agent is evenly supplied to the receiving seat 501 through multiple groups of supply heads 402 on the supply frame 401, and when the coating seat 301 rotates, the coupling agent is evenly coated on the ultrasonic detection probe 104 through the coating block 503. After supplying a certain amount of coupling agent, the ultrasonic detection probe 104 can be controlled to move upward by a certain distance to stop the supply of the coupling agent, and the coating block 503 continues to rotate to make the coating of the coupling agent more uniform.

[0047] The specific usage method and beneficial effects of the present utility model:

[0048] When in use, the device can climb on the steel structure through the climbing robot 101, and drive the ultrasonic detection probe 104 to move through the robotic arm 102 to perform ultrasonic detection on the welds on the steel structure. During the detection process, the robotic arm 102 can control the movement of the ultrasonic detection probe 104, so that the ultrasonic detection probe 104 moves into the mounting shell 201, and the mounting seat 103 triggers the first switch 305 to control the rotation of the second gear 304 through the drive motor 303. Furthermore, through the cooperation of the second gear 304 and the first gear 302, the coating seat 301 and the supply rack 401 and the receiving seat 501 inside it are driven to rotate. At the same time, the second switch 403 is triggered to transport the coupling agent to the receiving seat 501 through the supply pump 203, so as to fully coat the coupling agent on the ultrasonic detection probe 104, which is convenient for applying the coupling agent during high-altitude operations and reduces the error when performing ultrasonic detection on the welds of the steel structure.

[0049] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments.
