Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Portable ultrasonic crack detectors are widely used in roads, bridges, tunnels, water conservancy and other fields to detect internal cracks and defects in materials such as concrete structures and metal structures. Ultrasonic detection is mainly based on the propagation and diffraction characteristics of ultrasonic waves. When ultrasonic waves propagate in concrete, metal or other materials, if they encounter cracks, the sound waves will diffract at the end points of the cracks. This diffraction phenomenon allows the sound waves to bypass the cracks and continue to propagate. At the same time, their propagation path and propagation time will also change. The detector determines the location, depth and nature of the cracks by measuring and analyzing the propagation time and path changes of ultrasonic waves.

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described 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 creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 , the utility model provides an embodiment: a portable ultrasonic crack detector, including a base plate 1, an electric wheel 2 is provided at the bottom of the base plate 1, the electric wheel 2 includes an electric hub and a tire, and the electric wheel 2 is driven by electricity, which is a prior art. A buffer mechanism is provided at the bottom of the base plate 1, and a battery box 3 for providing power to the equipment is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. A battery pack is provided inside the battery box 3 for storing energy. A shift groove 9 is provided inside the battery box 3 to match the movable plate 8, and the movable plate 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the shift groove 9. A solar power generation module 10 is provided on the top of the movable plate 8, which can convert solar energy into electrical energy and store it in the battery pack to improve the outdoor endurance of the equipment, which is a prior art. A protective mechanism is provided inside the battery box 3.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 The protective mechanism includes a stepper motor 4. The stepper motor 4 can accurately control the rotation angle of its output shaft, which is convenient for adjusting the rotation speed and rotation angle of its rotation shaft. It can be adjusted accordingly according to different needs to improve the control accuracy. The stepper motor 4 is installed on the rear side of the battery box 3. The front side of the output shaft of the stepper motor 4 is fixedly connected with a bidirectional screw rod 5 arranged in a horizontal state. The surface of the bidirectional screw rod 5 is slidably connected with a slider 6. The surface of the bidirectional screw rod 5 is provided with two sections of threads with opposite rotation directions. The number of sliders 6 is set to two groups. The two groups of sliders 6 are respectively sleeved on the threads of the bidirectional screw rod 5 with different rotation directions. When the bidirectional screw rod 5 rotates, the two groups of sliders 6 move away from or approach each other. The surface of the slider 6 is hinged with a transmission rod 7 arranged in an inclined state. The end of the transmission rod 7 away from the slider 6 is hinged to the surface of the movable plate 8. An infrared obstacle avoidance sensor 11 is provided on the top of the base plate 1, and an ultrasonic detector 12 for detecting cracks in concrete during project acceptance inspection is provided on the top of the base plate 1.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4The buffer mechanism includes a connecting rod 13, the top of the connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the base plate 1, and the end of the connecting rod 13 away from the base plate 1 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 2 14. The number of electric wheels 2 is set to multiple. By setting multiple electric wheels 2, the equipment is more stable and convenient when moving. The side where the multiple electric wheels 2 are close to each other is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting rod 2 14 away from the connecting rod 13.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 4 , connecting rod 13 and connecting rod 2 14 are elastically connected by spring 15, and spring 15 is initially set to a compressed state. By setting spring 15, the angle of the V-shaped angle formed by connecting rod 1 13 and connecting rod 2 14 tends to become larger, thereby providing a supporting force to the base plate 1, and connecting rod 1 13 and connecting rod 2 14 are both set to an inclined state. The lengths of connecting rod 1 13 and connecting rod 2 14 are equal, and connecting rod 1 13 and connecting rod 2 14 form a V shape. The spring 15 is set inside the V-shaped opening formed by connecting rod 1 13 and connecting rod 2 14. By setting spring 15, the bumps caused by uneven ground when the equipment is moved can be reduced, and a certain degree of buffering protection effect is played, thereby improving safety performance.
[0034] Reference Figure 4 The buffer mechanism also includes a limit plate 16 and a limit column 17. The limit plate 16 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting rod 2 14, and the limit column 17 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting rod 1 13. A limit groove 18 is provided on the inner wall of the limit plate 16, which cooperates with the limit column 17. The limit groove 18 is set to an arc shape, and the limit column 17 slides on the inner wall of the limit groove 18. Through the cooperation of the limit column 17 and the limit groove 18, the angle at which the connecting rod 1 13 and the connecting rod 2 14 can rotate is limited, which can play a protective role and prevent the connecting rod 13 and the connecting rod 2 14 from being damaged due to excessive rotation angle.
[0035] Working principle: When in use, by starting the stepper motor 4, the stepper motor 4 drives the bidirectional screw rod 5 to rotate, and the rotation of the bidirectional screw rod 5 drives the two sets of sliders 6 to move away from each other. The displacement of the slider 6 drives the movable plate 8 to move through the transmission rod 7, thereby making the solar power generation module 10 on the top of the movable plate 8 move to the outside of the battery box 3 and exposed to the sun, so as to facilitate power generation and improve the outdoor endurance of the equipment. When not in use, the bidirectional screw rod 5 is driven by the stepper motor 4 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the two sets of sliders 6 are close to each other, and the movable plate 8 and the solar power generation module 10 are stored in the interior of the battery box 3, reducing the possibility of damage to the solar power generation module 10 by collision with external objects and improving the protection effect.
[0036] When the equipment moves, due to the uneven ground, a certain degree of up and down vibration will be generated. The vibration is transmitted to the connecting rod 1 13 through the bottom plate 1, so that the angle of the V-shaped angle formed by the connecting rod 1 13 and the connecting rod 2 14 becomes smaller, and the spring 15 is compressed. The compression and rebound of the spring 15 absorb part of the vibration energy, reducing the hard impact and collision of the battery pack, solar power generation module 10, infrared obstacle avoidance sensor 11, and ultrasonic detector 12 inside the battery box 3, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the electronic equipment, improving the protection performance, and increasing the safety of the equipment during movement.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
