Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of boiler inspection, specifically a power plant boiler inspection tool with a tapping inspection function. Background Technology
[0002] During boiler operation, pressure-bearing components may experience defects such as corrosion, deformation, wear, scaling, overheating, and leakage under the action of high-temperature and high-pressure water and steam media, as well as under the radiation of external high-temperature flames or the scouring of flue gas. Regular boiler inspection is an important technical means to ensure the safe operation of boilers. It is divided into internal inspection and external inspection. The most common methods for internal inspection are visual inspection and hammer inspection.
[0003] A search revealed a multifunctional boiler inspection tool disclosed in application number CN202122599361.0. This tool includes a main body comprising an inspection hammer assembly and an inspection hammer handle assembly. The inspection hammer handle assembly is located on the right side of the hammer assembly. The position of the connecting rod can be adjusted via the handle assembly, allowing it to be positioned appropriately. A flaw detector is installed inside the handle; if damage is found after inspection with the hammer assembly, it can be specifically detected using the flaw detector, thus identifying specific boiler problems for timely handling. The hammer assembly allows for striking different parts using the front and rear hammers, and an internal light provides illumination, making the striking location more accurate. The overall device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and is highly practical. However, the above description has the following drawbacks in actual use: the tool cannot inspect boiler inner walls to a specific depth, and the manual striking function is limited due to structural limitations. Therefore, a more practical power plant boiler inspection tool with a striking inspection function is needed. Utility Model Content

[0027] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 A power plant boiler inspection tool with a tapping inspection function includes a strip block 1, an arc groove 11 is provided on one side of the strip block 1, and a positioning component 2 is provided on the inner wall of the arc groove 11.
[0028] Please see Figure 4 The positioning component 2 includes a mounting sleeve 21 that engages with the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 11. An adjusting rod 22 is inserted through the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 21. A positioning block 23 is provided at one end of the adjusting rod 22. The two ends of the positioning block 23 are slidably connected to through grooves 24 provided on both sides of the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 21. A positioning pointer 25 is provided at the middle of one end of the positioning block 23. The two ends of the positioning pointer 25 are slidably connected to scales 26 provided on both sides of the inner edge of the through groove 24.

A striking component 3 is provided on the inner wall of the two grooves 212.
[0029] In practical use: the adjusting rod 22 drives the positioning block 23 to move on the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 21. The two ends of the positioning block 23 move on the inner walls of the two through slots 24 and the through slot 13 respectively. The positioning pointer 25 adjusts the position of the mounting seat 211 at the other end of the adjusting rod 22 according to the scale on the two scales 26. At the same time, the positioning block 23 drives the limiting block 27 to move on the surface of the strip block 1. When the appropriate position is reached, the two limiting pins 29 are inserted into the corresponding two limiting holes 28 and positioning holes 12 to complete the positioning purpose of the tapping inspection position of the inner wall of the power plant boiler.
[0030] Please see Figure 5The striking component 3 includes two micro motors 31 installed on one side of the inner wall of the two grooves 212. The output shafts of the two micro motors 31 are fixedly connected to sliders 32. Both ends of the two sliders 32 are provided with moving blocks 33.

The two sliders 32 drive two sets of moving blocks 33 to reciprocate on the guide rods 37 on the inner walls of the two sets of moving grooves 213. In conjunction with the two sets of moving grooves 213, several sets of springs 38 are squeezed to different degrees, which facilitates the reciprocating striking operation of the first hammer head 34 and the second hammer head 35. This makes it convenient to tap and inspect the inner wall of the boiler at a deeper position after positioning. The camera 217 and the lighting lamp 215 are used to take pictures and inspect the position.
[0032] Please see Figure 3 A through groove 13 is provided in the middle of the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 11, and the inner wall of the through groove 13 is interlocked with the surface of one end of the positioning block 23.

[0036] Please see Figure 5 Both sets of moving blocks 33 have through holes 36 in the middle of their surfaces. The inner walls of the through holes 36 and the inner walls of the two sets of moving grooves 213 are connected by guide rods 37. Springs 38 are fitted on the surfaces of both ends of the two sets of guide rods 37.
[0037] In practical use: the two sliders 32 drive the two sets of moving blocks 33 to move back and forth on the guide rods 37 on the inner wall of the two sets of moving grooves 213, and cooperate with the two sets of moving grooves 213 to compress several sets of springs 38 to different degrees, so as to facilitate the first hammer head 34 and the second hammer head 35 to perform reciprocating striking operations.
[0038] Please see Figure 4The other end of the mounting base 211 is provided with an energy storage block, and the surface of the energy storage block is provided with several lighting lamps 215. The other end of the energy storage block is fitted with a protective cover 216.
[0039] The mounting base 211 has a camera 217 and a scraper 218 respectively located in the middle of its top and bottom.
[0040] In practical use: the several lights 215 on the energy storage block provide a light source for the use of the camera 217 and the scraper 218, which facilitates the normal conduct of the inspection.
[0041] Please see Figure 4 A threaded groove 219 is provided in the middle of one end of the mounting base 211, and the inner wall of the threaded groove 219 is threadedly connected to one end of the connector 210.

[0043] In use, the adjusting rod 22 moves the positioning block 23 along the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 21. The two ends of the positioning block 23 move along the inner walls of the two through slots 24 and the through groove 13, respectively. This, combined with the positioning pointer 25's adjustment of the scale on the two scales 26, adjusts the position of the mounting base 211 at the other end of the adjusting rod 22. Simultaneously, the positioning block 23 moves the limiting block 27 along the surface of the strip block 1. When the desired position is reached, the two limiting pins 29 are inserted into the corresponding limiting holes 28 and positioning holes 12, thus completing the positioning purpose for the tapping inspection of the inner wall of the power plant boiler. Two micro motors 31 drive two sliders 32 to reciprocate and vibrate on the inner walls of the two grooves 212. The two sliders 32 drive two sets of moving blocks 33 to reciprocate on the guide rods 37 on the inner walls of the two sets of moving grooves 213. The two sets of moving grooves 213 also compress several sets of springs 38 to different degrees, which facilitates the reciprocating striking operation of the first hammer head 34 and the second hammer head 35. This facilitates the striking inspection of the inner wall of the boiler at a deeper location after positioning. The camera 217 and the lighting lamp 215 are used to take pictures and inspect the striking position.
