[0032] Specifically, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of each part of the bridge crack detection device of the embodiment.

[0033] The main mounting frame 1 is composed of a vertical rod and a cross beam, and a support leg 4 extending forward is further connected to the vertical rod, so that a detector positioning space is formed between the support leg 4 and the vertical rod; the probe 10 of the ultrasonic crack detector is arranged in the detector positioning space, and the controller 2 thereof is fixedly arranged on the main mounting frame 1.

[0034] A lifting frame 7 is further slidably arranged on the vertical rod of the main mounting frame 1, the lifting frame 7 is horizontally arranged on the vertical rod, a probe mounting frame 9 is connected to the lifting frame 7, the probe 10 is arranged on the probe mounting frame 9, and the probe mounting frame 9 extends into the detector positioning space, so that the center of gravity is positioned in the middle part and the stability is improved.

[0035] A lifting driver 6 is further arranged on the main mounting frame 1, the lifting driver 6 is fixedly arranged on the main mounting frame 1, the movable end of the lifting driver 6 is in transmission connection with the lifting frame 7, so as to drive the lifting of the lifting frame 7 and further control the lifting of the probe 10, the height of the probe 10 can be adjusted according to the requirements of surface crack testing and deep crack testing, and in the storage state or during transfer, the probe 10 is positioned at a high position, so as to avoid the probe 10 from being damaged by knocking against other structures or the ground. The lifting driver 6 is, for example, a pneumatic cylinder, a linear servo motor or the like.

[0036] A cleaning plate 11 is further arranged at the bottom of the main mounting frame 1, as shown in Figure 3 , the cleaning plate 11 is rotatably connected with the main mounting frame 1 through a rotating shaft 12, the rotating shaft 12 is vertically arranged, a spiral groove is arranged on the rotating shaft 12, a spiral hole is arranged on the lifting frame 7, and the rotating shaft 7 is screw connected with the spiral hole. When the lifting frame 12 is lowered, the cleaning plate 11 can be synchronously driven to swing in the horizontal direction through the rotating shaft 12, and then the sundries on the surface of the bridge deck are swept away by the cleaning plate 11.

[0037] The bottom of the cleaning plate 11 can be provided with a bristle brush, a steel wire brush or a rubber scraper, and is in contact with the bottom surface of the bridge crack detection device to effectively remove debris on the detection surface.

[0038] To facilitate the driving of the cleaning plate 11, in the embodiment, two groups of cleaning plates 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main mounting frame 1, which can reduce the length of a single cleaning plate 11 and reduce the requirement for torque of rotation. The length of the cleaning plate 11 can be determined according to the size of the detection instrument placement space formed between the support leg 4 and the vertical rod. Since the cleaning plate 11 is a fan-shaped movable plate, in order to effectively cover the effective test area in the cleaning area, the two cleaning plates 11 can also partially overlap to increase the length of the cleaning area. Correspondingly, the cleaning plate 11 can also be arranged as an arc-shaped plate to avoid the overlapping area from blocking each other and to ensure the smoothness of the cleaning action.

[0039] The spiral direction of the spiral groove of the rotating shaft 12 can be determined according to the actual cleaning area and the starting position of the cleaning plate 11. To improve the cleaning effect, the cleaning plate 11 can be cleaned repeatedly. Correspondingly, the lifting frame can be lifted repeatedly, or the spiral groove can be continuously arranged in multiple segments, the spiral directions of adjacent segments are opposite, and the angle difference between the beginning and end of a single segment is, for example, 90 degrees, and the activity angle of the cleaning plate is 90 degrees. The activity angle can be set according to the specific situation.

[0040] To facilitate testing of different points, in the embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 The lifting frame 7 is provided with a sliding groove, and the probe mounting frame 9 extends into the sliding groove and is in sliding connection with the sliding groove, so that the probe mounting frame 9 can slide horizontally along the lifting frame 7, which can be used to comprehensively cover each point of the test area. When the bridge surface appears a pit type damage and the detection point needs to be adjusted, the position of the probe 10 can be adjusted by moving the probe mounting frame 9 transversely without adjusting the overall positioning position of the bridge crack detection device.

[0041] To facilitate the activity adjustment of the probe mounting frame 9, in the embodiment, a lead screw 8 is rotatably arranged in the sliding groove of the lifting frame 7, the probe mounting frame 9 is in threaded connection with the lead screw 8, and a driving motor (not shown in the figure) is further arranged on the lifting frame 7. The driving motor is in transmission connection with the lead screw 8, so that the driving motor automatically rotates the lead screw 8, and then the lead screw 8 automatically controls the transverse position of the probe mounting frame 9 and the probe 10 thereon.

[0042] Alternatively, the end of the lead screw 7 extends out of the lifting frame 7 and is provided with a rotating cap, so that the transverse position of the probe mounting frame 9 and the probe 10 thereon can be manually adjusted. The specific setting mode can be set according to the specific requirement.

[0043] In order to improve the detection efficiency, the ultrasonic crack detector can be provided with at least two probes 10, and the number of probe mounting racks 9 is consistent with the number of probes 10.

[0044] In the embodiment, the ultrasonic crack detector includes two probes 10, the screw segments of the lead screws 8 matched with the two probe mounting racks 9 have opposite screw directions, so that the test data of the two probes 10 have symmetrical characteristics, which facilitates mutual verification and improves the reliability of the test results.

[0045] In order to improve the accuracy of ultrasonic testing, it is generally necessary to fill a coupling agent between the probe 10 and the surface of the object to be tested, which can improve the image display and reduce the acoustic resistance. In order to facilitate the arrangement of the coupling agent, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 a mounting beam is arranged on the support leg 4, and a coupling agent storage tank 14 is mounted on the mounting beam. The coupling agent storage tank 14 is located in front of the probe 10, which facilitates the balanced weight distribution. The output end of the coupling agent storage tank 14 is connected to a discharge ring 17 through a pipeline 16, and the discharge ring 17 is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the probe 10.

[0046] The bottom of the discharge ring 17 is provided with a plurality of discharge holes to facilitate uniform discharge. After the coupling agent is extruded through the discharge ring 17, the probe 10 can be driven to move laterally by the lead screw 8, so that the coupling agent can be spread out, or the coupling agent can be applied while moving and testing.

[0047] The pipeline 16 can also be positioned and installed through the space hole on the probe mounting rack 9 to avoid damage caused by dragging the ground.

[0048] In the embodiment, the coupling agent storage tank 14 is a piston type storage tank, and a pressing piston 15 is arranged thereon. The coupling agent in the coupling agent storage tank 14 can be extruded out by driving the pressing piston 15 through pressure. The coupling agent can be added to the coupling agent storage tank 14 by removing the pressing piston 15. The piston type storage tank can also be automatically extruded, for example, the pressing piston 15 is connected to a linear servo motor, which can automatically and quantitatively control the output of the coupling agent. The linear servo motor can be fixedly installed on the support leg 4. The output mode of the coupling agent in the coupling agent storage tank 14 can be selected according to specific needs.

[0049] In order to facilitate the movement of the bridge crack detection device, the bottom of the main mounting rack 1 is provided with a movable wheel 5, and the upper part of the main mounting rack 1 is inclined forward to form an inclined mounting position. The controller 2 is arranged in the inclined mounting position, which facilitates human-computer interaction and the vertical arrangement of the cable 3 between the controller 2 and the probe 10. The top of the main mounting rack 1 is provided with a handle to facilitate manual dragging.

[0050] The inclined mounting position can also be used for the installation of an industrial computer, which can be used for the control of devices such as motors and air cylinders.

[0051] The bridge crack detection device is simple and effective in structure, can automatically clean the sundries on the bridge surface of the detection area, guarantees detection accuracy, can also reduce the workload of manual cleaning, and improves work efficiency.
