Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of magnetic particle inspection technology, specifically to a spray device for a magnetic particle inspection machine. Background Technology
[0002] Magnetic particle testing utilizes the fact that when ferromagnetic materials are magnetized, the discontinuities cause localized distortion of the magnetic field lines on and near the workpiece surface, generating a leakage magnetic field (i.e., the magnetic field formed when magnetic induction lines leave and enter the surface). This magnetic field attracts magnetic powder applied to the workpiece surface, forming magnetic traces visible to the naked eye under suitable lighting, thus revealing the location, shape, and size of the discontinuities. During magnetic particle testing, to ensure that the magnetic field fully covers the area to be inspected, a spraying device is used to evenly adhere the magnetic powder to the workpiece surface.
[0003] CN222132271U discloses a magnetic suspension spraying device for a magnetic particle flaw detector. This device uses a spraying control module to control the number of nozzles opened, thereby controlling the final width of the sprayed magnetic powder and preventing waste. The liftable spraying control module can adapt to workpieces of different diameters. A second electric push rod extends to clamp the workpiece from both ends. A motor drives a turntable to rotate on a support, causing the fixedly connected second electric push rod to rotate, thus flipping the clamped workpiece. This, combined with the top spraying device, allows for uniform spraying of the magnetic suspension onto the surface of the object to be inspected. The purpose is to form a uniform magnetic suspension film to detect magnetic defects on the workpiece surface. However, this spraying device adjusts the spraying range by controlling the number of nozzles activated, resulting in low precision in spraying range control and room for improvement in the accuracy of controlling the amount of sprayed magnetic powder.

[0024] This application provides a spray device for a magnetic particle flaw detector. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. The spraying device of this magnetic particle flaw detector, through the setting of an adjustment mechanism, uses a bidirectional hydraulic rod to extend and retract, which drives the connecting plate to move and the baffle to move in opposite directions to adjust the length of the spray nozzle to the target value. The output shaft of the second motor in the protective box rotates, which drives the rotating plate to rotate. The rotation of the rotating plate drives the arc plate to rotate, which adjusts the width of the spray nozzle to a suitable value. This improves the control accuracy of the spraying range, reduces the possibility of wasting sprayed magnetic powder, and reduces the operating cost of the spraying device.
[0026] 2. The spraying device of this magnetic particle flaw detector, by setting up a clamping mechanism, controls the left and right push rods to extend until the clamping plate is in contact with the side of the workpiece and fixes it. The output shaft of the first motor at the top of the support plate rotates, driving the left push rod to rotate. The rotation of the left push rod drives the workpiece and the right push rod to rotate, so that the magnetic powder is evenly attached to the surface of the workpiece. This reduces the energy consumption of the clamping mechanism, avoids the possibility of magnetic powder entering the first motor, and extends the service life of the first motor.
