[0028] The structure of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] refer to Figure 1-4 A pressure vessel surface defect repair device includes a movable frame 3, a first electric telescopic rod 4 fixedly installed on the top of the movable frame 3, a first motor 5 fixedly installed at the output end of the first electric telescopic rod 4, a first drive shaft 6 fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 5, a defect detection box 7 fixedly installed at the bottom of the first drive shaft 6, a plurality of sliding blocks 9 slidably installed at the bottom of the defect detection box 7, and a pressure vessel inner wall defect detection component 1 is provided above the defect detection box 7 and the sliding blocks 9.

[0030] The pressure vessel inner wall defect detection assembly 1 includes a control turntable 11, a connecting rocker arm 12, a connecting plate 13, a mounting bracket 14, and a detection sleeve 15. The control turntable 11 is rotatably mounted inside the defect detection box 7, the connecting rocker arm 12 is rotatably mounted outside the control turntable 11, and the connecting plate 13 is rotatably mounted on the outer side of one end of the connecting rocker arm 12.

[0033] In this embodiment, the pressure vessel surface repair component 2 includes a limiting box 21, a second motor 22, a lead screw 23, a sliding plate 24, and a second electric telescopic rod 25.

The displacement sensor is existing technology, so it is not described in detail in this utility model. When the roller 20 rolls, if it touches a defect above the pressure vessel, the roller 20 will drive the auxiliary frame 19, the sliding rod 18 and the displacement sensor mounting limiting plate 17 to move under force. At this time, the displacement sensor can detect the size and specifications of the recessed area and record the position.

[0036] In this embodiment, a through groove is provided at the connection between the connecting rocker arm 12 and the control turntable 11 and the connecting plate 13, and a fixing pin is provided on the inner side of the through groove; the fixing pin can make the connection between the connecting rocker arm 12 and the control turntable 11 and the connecting rocker arm 12 relatively tight, so that the connecting rocker arm 12 can drive the connecting plate 13 to move after rotation.

[0037] In this embodiment, a third motor 29 is fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the defect detection box 7. A second drive shaft 30 is fixedly installed at the output end of the third motor 29. A transmission gear 31 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the second drive shaft 30. A toothed groove 32 is opened on the outer side of the control turntable 11. The transmission gear 31 and the toothed groove 32 mesh with each other. According to the inner wall diameter of the pressure vessel, the third motor 29 can be controlled to drive the second drive shaft 30 and the transmission gear 31 to rotate. The transmission gear 31 can cooperate with the toothed groove 32 to drive the control turntable 11 to rotate. After the control turntable 11 rotates, it can drive multiple connecting plates 13 and sliding blocks 9 to slide inside the limiting groove 8 through the connecting rocker arm 12, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of multiple rollers 20 and allows the rollers 20 to abut against the inner wall of the pressure vessel.

[0038] The specific operation is as follows: the movable frame 3 is moved above the pressure vessel to be inspected. The first electric telescopic rod 4 is controlled to lower the defect detection box 7. According to the inner diameter of the pressure vessel, the third motor 29 is controlled to drive the second drive shaft 30 and the transmission gear 31 to rotate. The transmission gear 31 can cooperate with the tooth groove 32 to drive the control turntable 11 to rotate. After the control turntable 11 rotates, it can drive multiple connecting plates 13 and sliding blocks 9 to slide inside the limiting groove 8 through the connecting rocker arm 12, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of multiple rollers 20, allowing the rollers 20 to abut against the inner wall of the pressure vessel. Since the different detection sleeves 15 have different heights, the position of the rollers 20 can be different. The first motor 5 is controlled to drive the first drive shaft 6 and the defect detection box 7 to rotate, allowing multiple rollers 20 to rotate around the inner wall of the pressure vessel. The multiple rollers 20 are arranged in a circle, which allows the device to inspect cylindrical pressure vessels. For targeted detection and repair, a displacement sensor is installed above the displacement sensor mounting limit plate 17. When the roller 20 rolls, if it touches a defect on the top of the pressure vessel, the roller 20 will drive the auxiliary frame 19, slide rod 18, and displacement sensor mounting limit plate 17 to move under force. At this time, the displacement sensor can detect the size and specifications of the recessed area and record the position. Then, the welding repair device 26 can be controlled to move to the recessed area, and the second motor 22 can be controlled to drive the lead screw 23 to rotate. The lead screw 23 can adjust the height of the sliding plate 24 through the threaded engagement, so that the welding repair device 26 can weld the recessed area. After the welding repair is completed, the grinding device 27 is moved to the area and the grinding device 27 is controlled to grind the welded area. This allows the device to repair the inner wall of the pressure vessel, making the repair of defects on the inner wall of the pressure vessel faster and more efficient.
