Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of X-ray machine support technology, specifically relating to a support frame for a pipeline flaw detection X-ray machine. Background Technology

[0002] A radiographic flaw detector is a device that uses (X) rays to inspect workpieces for flaws. Radiographic flaw detectors are widely used in shipbuilding, petroleum, chemical, machinery and aerospace industries. When inspecting workpieces such as ship hulls, pipelines and high-pressure vessels, the radiographic flaw detector needs to be moved to the workpiece to be inspected first, then the position and angle of the radiographic flaw detector are adjusted so that the end of the radiographic flaw detector is directly facing the area of ​​the workpiece to be inspected; finally, the radiographic flaw detector is started to inspect the workpiece.

[0003] Existing radiographic flaw detectors are heavy and require repeated position adjustments during the flaw detection process. As a result, radiographic flaw detectors are inconvenient to move and difficult to adjust in actual use, which greatly reduces their working efficiency. At the same time, the cylindrical shape of the flaw detector makes it difficult to fix in actual use, which brings difficulties to the flaw detection of pipelines. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model provides a support frame for a pipeline flaw detection X-ray machine. Its purpose is to solve the problems of existing X-ray flaw detectors being too heavy and requiring repeated position adjustments during the flaw detection process. As a result, X-ray flaw detectors are inconvenient to move and difficult to adjust in actual use, which greatly reduces their working efficiency. At the same time, the cylindrical shape of the flaw detector is difficult to fix in actual use, which brings difficulties to pipeline flaw detection.

[0005] This utility model provides a support frame for a pipeline flaw detection X-ray machine, including two main supports, each of which is provided with an extension support. The end of each extension support is provided with a pulley, and the surface of each main support is provided with a support portion, which is provided with a fixing strap.

[0006] Furthermore, the two main supports are arranged in parallel, and the two main supports are fixedly connected by a first connecting rod.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the first connecting rod and the two main supports form a rigid frame structure, which avoids deformation or tilting of the supports due to the weight of the X-ray machine, greatly improves the overall stability, makes the force distribution of the support frame on the curved surface of the pipe more uniform, and prevents the risk of unilateral overturning.

[0008] Furthermore, the extension bracket is slidably disposed inside the main bracket, and the extension bracket is fixed to the main bracket by bolts.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding structure of the extension bracket can adjust the width of the bracket, and can quickly adapt to different pipe diameters by locking with bolts. At the same time, the nested design of the extension bracket and the main bracket greatly reduces the storage volume in the contracted state, while in the extended state, the pipe wall of the main bracket forms a two-way bending support for the extension bracket, which significantly enhances the resistance to deformation.

[0010] Furthermore, the two extension brackets are fixedly connected at one end outside the main bracket by a second connecting rod.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the second connecting rod connects the two side extension brackets into a whole, avoiding the risk of independent swaying of the single side extension bracket, providing rigid constraints during movement, and ensuring synchronous movement of the pulleys.

[0012] Furthermore, the pulley is inclined at the outward end of the extension bracket.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the pulley axis is inclined at an angle of 15°-45° to the pipe axis. This inclination angle design enables the support frame to move back and forth along the center of the pipe inside the pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, the main support is provided with a set of support parts, which are vertically fixed to the upper surface of the main support.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the vertical fixation of the support can ensure that the center of gravity of the X-ray machine is located in the center of the main support, thus avoiding unbalanced force caused by eccentric placement of the equipment.

[0016] Furthermore, each set of support portions consists of two opposing support seats, which together form an inclined support area.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the support area formed between the two opposing support seats constitutes a V-shaped groove, and its inclined sidewall is in close contact with the cylindrical shell of the X-ray machine. At the same time, a rubber pad is provided on the surface of its inclined sidewall to avoid damage to the X-ray machine from hard contact and to prevent the X-ray machine from sliding.

[0018] Furthermore, a hook is fixed to the side of one of the supports away from the other support, and the fixing strap is fixed to the top of the other support.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the hook and the fixing strap form a quick binding structure. The fixing strap adopts the existing adjustable length fixing strap. During operation, the fixing strap is wrapped around the top of the equipment and hooked onto the hook. The ratchet or elastic tensioner can be used to lift and lock with one hand. In addition, vertical constraints are added on the basis of the V-groove, which enhances the overall stability and greatly improves the vibration resistance.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0021] 1. This utility model, through the arrangement of a main support, an extension support, and pulleys, allows the extension support to slide and extend or shorten within the main support, thereby adapting to pipes of different diameters. At the same time, the pulleys can contact the inner wall of pipes of different diameters, enabling the entire device to slide within the pipe, thereby achieving the purpose of position adjustment and improving overall work efficiency.

[0022] 2. This utility model, through the setting of the support part and the fixing belt, forms a V-shaped groove in the support area between two opposing support seats. Its inclined sidewall is in close contact with the cylindrical shell of the X-ray machine. At the same time, a rubber pad is provided on the surface of its inclined sidewall to avoid damage to the X-ray machine by hard contact and to prevent the X-ray machine from sliding. It is then fixed by the fixing belt, which adds vertical constraint on the basis of the V-shaped groove and enhances the overall stability.

[0023] Other features and advantages of this invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the invention. The objectives and other advantages of this invention can be realized and obtained by means of the structures particularly pointed out in the description and the drawings.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same components. It should be noted that the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-2 This utility model provides a support frame for a pipeline flaw detection X-ray machine, including two main supports 1, each with an extension support 2. The ends of the extension supports 2 are equipped with pulleys 3. The two main supports 1 are arranged in parallel and are fixedly connected by a first connecting rod 11. The first connecting rod 11 and the two main supports 1 form a rigid frame structure, preventing deformation or tilting of the support due to the weight of the X-ray machine, greatly improving overall stability, making the force distribution of the support frame on the curved surface of the pipeline more uniform, and preventing the risk of unilateral overturning. One end of each extension support 2 located outside the main supports 1 is fixedly connected by a second connecting rod 21. The second connecting rod 21 connects the two extension supports 2 into a whole, avoiding the risk of independent swaying of one side of the extension support 2, providing rigid constraint during movement, and ensuring synchronous movement of the pulleys 3. The pulleys 3 are inclined at the outer ends of the extension supports 2, with the axis of the pulleys 3 at an angle of 15°-45° to the pipeline axis. This inclination angle design allows the support frame to move back and forth along the center of the pipeline within the pipeline.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-2 The extension bracket 2 is slidably installed inside the main bracket 1. The extension bracket 2 and the main bracket 1 are fixed by bolts. The sliding structure of the extension bracket 2 can adjust the width of the extension bracket 2. It can quickly adapt to different pipe diameters by locking with bolts. At the same time, the nested design of the extension bracket 2 and the main bracket 1 greatly reduces the storage volume in the contracted state, while in the extended state, the pipe wall of the main bracket 1 forms a two-way bending support for the extension bracket 2, which significantly enhances the resistance to deformation.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-2The surface of the main support 1 is provided with a support part 4. Each of the two main supports 1 is provided with a set of support parts 4. Each set of support parts 4 is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the main support 1. The vertical fixation of the support parts 4 can make the center of gravity of the X-ray machine located in the center of the main support 1, avoiding the unbalanced force caused by the eccentric placement of the equipment. Each set of support parts 4 consists of two support seats 41 arranged opposite each other. The support area formed between the two support seats 41 arranged opposite each other constitutes a V-shaped groove. Its inclined side wall is in close contact with the cylindrical shell of the X-ray machine. At the same time, a rubber pad is provided on the surface of its inclined side wall to avoid hard contact that could damage the X-ray machine and to prevent the X-ray machine from sliding.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-2 The support part 4 is equipped with a fixing strap 5. One of the support seats 41 is fixed with a hook 411 on the side away from the other support seat 41. The fixing strap 5 is fixed to the top of the other support seat 41. The hook 411 and the fixing strap 5 form a quick binding structure. The fixing strap 5 adopts the existing adjustable length fixing strap 5. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. During operation, the fixing strap 5 is wrapped around the top of the equipment and hooked onto the hook 411. It can be lifted and locked with one hand by ratchet or elastic tensioner. In this way, vertical constraint is added on the basis of V-groove, enhancing the overall stability and greatly improving the vibration resistance.

[0033] The specific implementation method is as follows: When in use, the X-ray machine is placed in the V-shaped area between the two support seats 41, and one end of the fixing strap 5 is put on the hook 411 to fix the X-ray machine. Then, the bolts are loosened, and the extension bracket 2 is pulled out or inserted into the main bracket 1 to adjust the overall width so that the whole device can better fit the pipe diameter. Then, the main bracket 1 can be pushed to slide in the pipe through the pulley 3, which facilitates the X-ray machine to examine the pipe.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
