Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wind power towers, in particular to a wind power tower weld flaw detection bracket. Background Art

[0002] Wind turbine towers need to be butt-jointed during the manufacturing process, and then welded at the joint positions. In order to increase the safety of the wind turbine tower in the later use, it is necessary to perform flaw detection on the welding positions of the wind turbine tower. Usually, the flaw detection process of the wind turbine tower is carried out inside it, so a support device is required to support the flaw detection instrument during the flaw detection process. This support device is also called a flaw detection bracket.

[0003] The existing flaw detection brackets cannot easily separate and fix the flaw detection instrument and the flaw detection head during the flaw detection process, which makes their use complicated.

[0004] The reason for this problem is that during the use of the wind turbine tower weld flaw detection bracket, the flaw detection instrument needs to be placed inside the wind turbine tower. The interior of the wind turbine tower is arc-shaped, and the wind turbine tower needs to be rotated during the flaw detection process. In order to increase the stability of the flaw detection bracket, the flaw detection instrument needs to be supported so that the flaw detection instrument can adjust its position according to the movement of the wind turbine tower. During use, the flaw detection instrument needs to correspond the flaw detection head to the welding position. The flaw detection head and the flaw detection instrument are connected by a line. When supporting the flaw detection instrument, the position of the flaw detection head needs to be manually controlled so that the position of the flaw detection head can correspond to the welding position. Therefore, after adjusting the position of the wind turbine tower, it is necessary to first move the bracket to control the position of the flaw detection instrument, and then control the flaw detection head to detect the welding position. This increases the bracket movement step in the flaw detection process, which makes the use of the flaw detection instrument somewhat complicated. At the same time, manually controlling the flaw detection instrument is easily affected by external factors and produces position deviation, thereby reducing the accuracy of the flaw detection process. Therefore, we propose a wind turbine tower weld flaw detection bracket. Utility Model Content

The threaded rod is then rotated to drive the two groups of fixed plates to approach each other until the outer surfaces of the two groups of fixed plates are against the outside of the flaw detection instrument.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] The embodiment of the present application solves the problem that the existing flaw detection bracket cannot easily separate and fix the flaw detection instrument and the flaw detection head during the flaw detection process, which causes a certain degree of complexity in use by providing a wind turbine tower weld flaw detection bracket.

[0026] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0027] The embodiment of the utility model discloses a binding device for file arrangement.

[0028] According to the attached Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a bracket 1, and a flaw detector 103 is arranged above the bracket 1. The flaw detector 103 can refer to the welding flaw detector model CJE-2A. A fixing mechanism is arranged on the outside of the bracket 1, and the fixing mechanism includes a bracket 2, which is arranged above the bracket 1. The flaw detector 103 is arranged above the bracket 2. The bracket 2 is used to support the flaw detector 103. The fixing plate 204 is movably arranged inside the bracket 2, and the fixing plate 204 fixes the flaw detector 103. The clamping member 202 is movably arranged below the bracket 2, and the clamping member 202 is arranged below the fixing plate 204. The clamping member 202 fixes the position of the flaw detector head of the flaw detector 103.

[0029] A wind turbine tower 102 is provided on the outside of the bracket 1, a tower support frame 101 is provided below the wind turbine tower 102, a fixing rod 208 is provided above the bracket 1, the bracket 2 is provided on the outside of the fixing rod 208, a universal wheel 209 is provided on the inside of the bracket 1, the outside of the bracket 2 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 206, the internal thread of the connecting plate 206 is connected to the threaded rod 203, and the threaded rod 203 is rotatably connected to the side of the fixing plate 204.

[0030] The side of the fixed plate 204 is fixedly connected to a limiting piece 207, and the limiting piece 207 is movably plugged into the inside of the connecting plate 206. The outside of the fixed plate 204 is fixedly connected to a plug-in block 205, and the outside of the flaw detection instrument 103 is fixedly connected to a fixed block 201, and the plug-in block 205 is flexibly plugged into the inside of the fixed block 201.

[0031] By placing the flaw detector 103 on the top of the bracket 2, and then passing the flaw detector head at the rear position of the flaw detector 103 around the rear position of the bracket 2, so that the position of the flaw detector head is in the middle position of the two sets of clamping parts 202, and then rotating the threaded rod 203, so that the threaded rod 203 can move inside the connecting plate 206. At this time, the end of the threaded rod 203 rotates on the side of the fixed plate 204. When the threaded rod 203 rotates, it will push the two sets of fixed plates 204 closer to each other. During the movement of the fixed plate 204, the limiter 207 will also slide inside the connecting plate 206 until the outer surfaces of the two sets of fixed plates 204 are against the outer surface of the flaw detector 103. At the same time, the plug-in block 205 will also be movably inserted into the interior of the fixed block 201 under the drive of the fixed plate 204. During the movement of the fixed plate 204, the clamping piece 202 at the bottom of the bracket 2 will be driven to move, so that the clamping piece 202 clamps the flaw detection head. By setting the bracket 2, the bracket 2 supports the flaw detection instrument 103 and places the flaw detection head below the bracket 2. Then, the fixed plate 204 and the clamping piece 202 are moved to clamp the flaw detection instrument 103 and the flaw detection head respectively. Therefore, when the position of the wind turbine tower 102 is adjusted, the flaw detection instrument 103 and the flaw detection head are controlled at the same time, thereby quickly completing the flaw detection process and increasing the stability of the use of the flaw detection instrument 103.

[0032] A rubber clamping block is provided at the bottom of the clamping member 202, and a plurality of curved surfaces are provided on the outside of the rubber clamping block. The curved surfaces can not only increase the clamping capacity of the clamping member 202, but also enable the clamping member 202 to clamp the cylindrical flaw detection head, thereby increasing the flexibility of the use of the clamping member 202. The universal wheel 209 is used to increase the flexibility of the movement of the bracket 1, so that the bracket 1 can move laterally along the curved surface of the wind turbine tower 102 during the rotation of the wind turbine tower 102, and can also move laterally inside the wind turbine tower 102, thereby increasing the use effect of the bracket 1. The support frame 101 supports the wind turbine tower 102, and the outside of the support frame 101 is provided with rollers, which can drive the wind turbine tower 102 to rotate laterally during rolling, thereby making it convenient for the flaw detection instrument 103 to detect other welding positions inside the wind turbine tower 102.

[0033] In summary, compared with the existing technology, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0034] By placing the flaw detector 103 above the bracket 2, and then passing the flaw detection head at the rear position of the flaw detector 103 around the rear position of the bracket 2, the position of the flaw detection head is in the middle position of the two sets of clamping parts 202, and then rotating the threaded rod 203 to drive the two sets of fixing plates 204 to approach each other until the outer surfaces of the two sets of fixing plates 204 are against the outer surface of the flaw detector 103. At the same time, the movement of the fixing plate 204 will drive the clamping part 202 at the bottom of the bracket 2 to move, so that the clamping part 202 clamps the flaw detection head, and the flaw detection instrument 103 is supported by the bracket 2, and the flaw detection head is placed at the lower position of the bracket 2. Then, moving the fixing plate 204 and the clamping part 202 can clamp the flaw detection instrument 103 and the flaw detection head respectively, so that when the wind turbine tower 102 is adjusted in position, the flaw detection instrument 103 and the flaw detection head are controlled at the same time, thereby quickly completing the flaw detection process and increasing the stability of the use of the flaw detection instrument 103.
