It can penetrate objects that visible light cannot, as illustrated by patent application number CN202322147212.X, a portable X-ray non-destructive testing instrument. This utility model's portable X-ray non-destructive testing instrument includes an X-ray non-destructive transmitter, an X-ray non-destructive transmitter housing, and an imaging telescopic protection device. The imaging telescopic protection device includes an imaging plate, a protective panel, and a telescopic rod. This allows the imaging plate to remain stable in a folded state, and the device can be folded into a smaller volume for carrying and transportation, solving the problem of traditional equipment being too bulky and inconvenient to carry. By placing the imaging plate between the telescopic rod and the protective panel, it is not directly exposed to the outside when the equipment is not in use, thereby reducing the possibility of physical damage to the imaging plate during carrying and transportation. In the above technical solution, when using this device to perform non-destructive testing on pipelines, the device can only be tied to the surface of the pipeline according to the angle of the pipeline to perform the testing work, which takes a lot of time and affects the efficiency of the testing.

[0014] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0015] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, a non-destructive testing X-ray angle adjustment device includes a support base 1. A positioning groove 3 is formed on the upper surface of the support base 1. An installation shaft 4 is rotatably installed between the inner walls on both sides of the positioning groove 3. An installation plate 5 is fixedly installed on the circumference of the installation shaft 4. A hydraulic cylinder 6 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the installation plate 5. A positioning plate 7 is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 6. An X-ray detection head 9 is provided on the upper surface of the positioning plate 7. An adjustment and positioning component 2 is provided on the installation shaft 4.

[0016] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, a screw hole 10 is provided on the upper surface of the positioning disk 7, and a screw 8 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the X-ray detection head 9. The screw 8 is engaged inside the screw hole 10, and there is a certain damping performance between the screw 8 and the screw hole 10, so that the operator can rotate the X-ray detection head 9 with a little force.

[0017] like Figure 2 ,3 As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the adjustment and positioning assembly 2 includes a top plate 201 and a mounting groove 207. The top plate 201 is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting shaft 4. The mounting groove 207 is formed on the side of the support base 1. A plurality of guide rods 202 are slidably installed through the top plate 201. A turntable 205 is fixedly installed between the upper ends of the plurality of guide rods 202. A guide ring 203 is fixedly installed between the lower ends of the plurality of guide rods 202. A plurality of reset rings are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the upper surface of the guide ring 203. Springs 204, with their top ends positioned on the lower surface of the turntable 205, have several second retaining teeth 208 evenly spaced on the inner surface of the mounting groove 207. The lower surface of the guide ring 203 has several first retaining teeth 206 evenly spaced. The first retaining teeth 206 mesh with the second retaining teeth 208. When an operator pulls the turntable 205, several guide rods 202 are simultaneously pulled outwards, causing the guide ring 203 to move upwards, thus engaging the first retaining teeth 206 with the second retaining teeth 208. Several second locking teeth 208 disengage, allowing the turntable 205 to rotate. Simultaneously, this drives the mounting shaft 4 to rotate, causing the X-ray inspection head 9 to swing. Once the X-ray inspection head 9 is adjusted to a suitable tilt angle, the operator releases the turntable 205. The return spring 204 resets the guide ring 203, causing the first locking tooth 206 to engage with the several second locking teeth 208. This fixes the mounting shaft 4, preventing further rotation. This device allows adjustment of the X-ray inspection head 9's angle based on the required pipe angle, improving inspection efficiency. After angle adjustment, the hydraulic cylinder 6 extends and retracts, driving the X-ray inspection head 9 upwards to fit against the pipe's circumference for inspection. This device allows for arbitrary adjustment of the X-ray inspection head 9's angle, eliminating the need to bind it to the pipe surface and further enhancing inspection efficiency.

[0018] The working principle of this non-destructive testing X-ray angle adjustment device:

[0019] In use, first place the device in a suitable position. Because the screw 8 is engaged inside the screw hole 10, and there is a certain damping performance between the screw 8 and the screw hole 10, the X-ray detection head 9 can be rotated to adjust the swing angle of the X-ray detection head 9. After adjusting to a suitable position, the tilt angle of the X-ray detection head 9 is then adjusted according to the inclination angle of the pipeline. First, the operator pulls the turntable 205, which simultaneously pulls several guide rods 202 outward, causing the guide ring 203 to move upward and disengage the first locking tooth 206 from several second locking teeth 208. At this point, the turntable 205 can be rotated, driving the mounting shaft 4 to rotate, thus causing the X-ray detection head 9 to swing and adjust the X-ray detection head 9 to a suitable tilt. When the angle is adjusted, the operator releases the turntable 205, and the guide ring 203 is reset by the return spring 204, causing the first locking tooth 206 to engage with several second locking teeth 208. This fixes the mounting shaft 4, preventing it from rotating. This device can adjust the angle of the X-ray inspection head 9 according to the angle of the pipe to be inspected, improving inspection efficiency. After adjusting the angle, the hydraulic cylinder 6 extends and retracts, driving the X-ray inspection head 9 to move upward, so that the X-ray inspection head 9 fits against the circumference of the pipe for inspection. This device can adjust the angle of the X-ray inspection head 9 at will, eliminating the need to tie the X-ray inspection head 9 to the pipe surface, thus improving inspection efficiency.

[0020] The above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation methods here. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
