Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of non-destructive crack detection using a DC potential difference method, in particular to a non-destructive detection device for weld cracks. Background Art
[0002] Welding is a manufacturing process and technology that uses heat, high temperature, or high pressure to join metals or other thermoplastic materials (such as plastics). Welding is the primary method for connecting metal structures. The weld and the surrounding heat-affected zone are weak areas in the metal connection, making them prone to crack damage.
[0003] Weld cracks are a highly detrimental defect. Besides reducing the load-bearing capacity of welded joints, the sharp notches at the ends of the cracks can cause severe stress concentration, prompting crack expansion and ultimately damaging the weld structure, rendering the product scrapped or even causing serious accidents. Generally, cracks are considered a serious defect in welded joints and, upon discovery, should be completely removed and repaired with welding.
[0004] Currently, the most commonly used nondestructive testing methods for weld cracks include ultrasonic, radiographic, and magnetic particle testing. Ultrasonic and radiographic testing techniques are primarily used to detect internal cracks in welds, while magnetic particle testing is used to detect surface cracks. However, the prevalence of weld reinforcement, weld lines, and fusion lines in welds can significantly interfere with test results. Consequently, these methods suffer from low efficiency, high operator experience requirements, and poor recordability and repeatability of test results.
[0005] Therefore, how to provide a non-destructive detection device for weld cracks that can effectively improve the detection efficiency of butt welds and enhance the recordability and repeatability of detection results has become a technical problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve.

[0046] The probe fixing device is used to fix and install the detection probe 1 and drive the entire non-destructive testing device to move at the weld. At the same time, the detection probe 1 is placed on the surface of the metal weld to be tested for current input and potential difference measurement;
[0047] According to the width of the weld and weld heat-affected zone to be inspected, the number of detection probes 1 in each row and the total number of rows can be determined. In this application, it is preferred to have 3 probes in each row, with a total of 3 rows. Multiple rows are set in order to cover multiple detection points along the weld direction while staying at the same detection position, thereby further improving the detection efficiency.

At this time, the electromagnet 13 is powered off, and the probe 15 falls under the action of gravity and passes through the center hole of the lower cover 17. The compression spring 16 is pressed down to the lower cover 17. The compression spring 16 is in a compressed state and drives the rubber pad 14 to act as a buffer for the probe 15 to prevent the probe 15 from colliding with the weld to be tested and damaging the probe 15.
[0051] Signal measurement is performed at a crack-free location on the weld, and if necessary, magnetic particle inspection is first performed on this location to confirm that no crack damage exists. An excitation voltage is applied to the two left and right detection probes 1 in each row, and the potential difference between the middle detection probe 1 and the detection probe 1 at either end is measured to serve as a reference for subsequent crack detection. The host computer display system automatically records and displays this detection reference.

The assembled probe 15, rubber pad 14 and compression spring 16 are installed into the cavity of the lower half of the probe housing 10; the lower cover 17 is connected to the probe housing 10 by threading; the plug 18 is inserted into the center hole of the lower cover 17; the power line of the electromagnet 13 is connected to the built-in electrode of the probe connector 12 by welding, and the electromagnet 13 is placed in the cavity of the upper half of the probe housing 10; the upper cover 11 is tightly connected to the probe connector 12 using strong glue; and the upper cover 11 is connected to the probe housing 10 by threading.
[0064] In actual application, such as Figures 1-6As shown, the above-mentioned probe fixing device may include: a probe cover 2, and the probe cover 2 may have a plurality of positioning holes distributed in a matrix, the outer surface of the probe housing 10 may have an external thread and be screwed into the positioning hole of the probe cover 2 through the external thread to achieve the fixation of the detection probe 1; the top outer side of the probe cover 2 may be provided with a cover head cover 3 and a handle 4 (for moving and placing the entire set of non-destructive testing equipment); the probe cover 3 (for protecting the probe from external collision damage during the detection process) may be provided with an external connector 5, and the inside of the external connector 5 may be provided with an electrode, which can be used to connect the wire of the detection probe 1; the bottom ends of both sides of the probe cover 2 may be provided with a walking mechanism for enabling the entire set of non-destructive testing equipment to move quickly along the weld direction on the weld surface.

Then, the voltage between the 1# probe and the 4# probe can be calculated. According to the magnitude of the voltage of the 4# probe to the ground, it can be inferred whether the distribution of the crack is between the 1# probe and the 4# probe, or between the 4# probe and the 7# probe.
