A water pipe 15 is passed through the inner side of the first notch ring 1 and the second notch ring 2, and a weld 16 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the water pipe 15.

[0023] It should be noted that, since the existing water pipe weld inspection requires workers to hold an ultrasonic probe to inspect the welding quality around the weld, the ultrasonic probe needs to be rotated 360 degrees along the water pipe, which is cumbersome to operate and the detection device is not convenient to be put on the outside of the water pipe. In this embodiment, the gap setting of the first notch ring 1 and the second notch ring 2 facilitates the detection device to be conveniently put on the outside of the water pipe of the electromechanical equipment of the hydropower station, and utilizes the rotation of the second notch ring 2 on the first notch ring 1 to realize the first ultrasonic detection head 6 and the second ultrasonic detection head 7 to perform axial 360-degree ultrasonic detection along the weld 16, thereby realizing all-round detection of the weld 16, facilitating detection while ensuring detection efficiency.

[0024] Specifically, in this embodiment, this solution mainly includes a first notch ring 1 and a second notch ring 2.

The first ultrasonic detection head 6 and the second ultrasonic detection head 7 on the second notch ring 2 move in a circular motion synchronously. After the second notch ring 2 rotates 90 degrees in the forward direction, the first ultrasonic detection head 6 and the second ultrasonic detection head 7 perform ultrasonic detection on an area 180 degrees in the axial direction outside the weld 16 on the water pipe 15. Then, the forward and reverse button 12 is pressed again, the output end of the three-phase asynchronous motor 9 rotates in the reverse direction, the second notch ring 2 rotates 180 degrees in the reverse direction, and the first ultrasonic detection head 6 and the second ultrasonic detection head 7 perform ultrasonic detection on another area 180 degrees in the axial direction outside the weld 16 on the water pipe 15, thereby realizing all-round detection of the weld 16.

[0028] In this embodiment, the stability of the movement of the second notch ring 2 on the first notch ring 1 is ensured to prevent the second notch ring 2 from falling off from the first notch ring 1 .

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-2 As shown, the first ultrasonic probe 6 and the second ultrasonic probe 7 are located on the same straight line.
