Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a magnetic particle inspection device for pressure vessels, including a base 1 and an inspection component 11. The inspection component 11 is installed above the base 1 and includes a magnetic particle inspector 12. The magnetic particle inspection component 11 mainly consists of a magnetic source, a magnetic field generating system, magnetic powder, and a detection system. A magnetic field is applied to the workpiece to be inspected, causing a leakage magnetic field to be generated inside or on the surface. When cracks or defects exist in the material, the magnetic field is disturbed, causing the leakage magnetic field to concentrate at the defect. Subsequently, magnetic powder is applied to the surface of the workpiece, and the magnetic powder attracts the leakage magnetic field area, forming a clear defect mark, thereby realizing the detection of defects. A lifting frame 2 is slidably provided at the top of the base 1. The lifting frame 2 can be height adjusted. A symmetrically distributed electric cylinder 21 is fixed inside the lifting frame 2. The output end of the electric cylinder 21 drives the fixed frame 22 to move laterally. The fixed frame 22 is fixedly provided at the output end of the electric cylinder 21 for fixed support and fixation. A rotating shaft 23 is rotatably mounted inside the frame 22. The rotation of the rotating shaft 23 drives the adjustment frame 24 to rotate. The adjustment frame 24 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the rotating shaft 23. The rotation of the adjustment frame 24 drives the magnetic particle flaw detector 12 to rotate. The magnetic particle flaw detector 12 is installed inside the adjustment frame 24. A transmission rod 26 is rotatably mounted inside the fixed frame 22. The rotation of the transmission rod 26 drives the first gear 27 to rotate. The first gear 27 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the transmission rod 26. The rotation of the first gear 27 drives the second gear 28 to rotate. The second gear 28 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the rotating shaft 23. The rotation of the second gear 28 drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate. By using a small gear to drive a large gear, the accuracy of angle adjustment can be improved. The first gear 27 and the second gear 28 mesh with each other. A worm gear 3 is rotatably mounted inside the fixed frame 22. A worm wheel 31 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the transmission rod 26. The worm gear 3 and the worm wheel 31 mesh with each other. The rotation of the worm gear 3 drives the meshing worm wheel 31 to self-lock.

[0019] A support frame 13 is installed at the top of the base 1. An adjustment groove 4 is provided inside the support frame 13. A threaded rod 41 is rotatably provided inside the adjustment groove 4. A threaded slider 42 is threadedly sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod 41. The threaded slider 42 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2. A second motor 44 is fixedly installed at the top of the support frame 13. The end of the output shaft of the second motor 44 is inserted through the support frame 13 and fixedly connected to the threaded rod 41.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the No. 2 motor 44 starts to work. The output shaft of the No. 2 motor 44 rotates, which drives the threaded rod 41 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 41 drives the threaded slider 42 to move up and down with the assistance of the auxiliary rod 43, thereby allowing the height of the magnetic particle flaw detector 12 to be adjusted.

[0021] A drive assembly 15 is installed at the bottom of the base 1.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive component 15 can drive the entire device to move laterally.

[0023] The lifting frame 2 is detachably mounted on the outside of the threaded slider 42 by screws.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting frame 2 can be installed and disassembled on the outside of the threaded slider 42, which facilitates subsequent disassembly and maintenance.

[0025] An auxiliary rod 43 is fixedly inserted into the adjusting groove 4, and the auxiliary rod 43 is movably inserted into the threaded slider 42.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the auxiliary rod 43 can assist the threaded slider 42 in moving up and down.

[0027] A clamping assembly 25 is installed on the outside of the adjusting frame 24, and a magnetic particle flaw detector 12 is installed on the inside of the clamping assembly 25.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping component 25 can clamp and position magnetic particle flaw detectors 12 of different specifications, and at the same time facilitate their installation and disassembly.

[0029] A storage box 14 is fixedly installed at the top of the base 1.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the storage box 14 is used to store and place tools and equipment used in flaw detection work.

[0031] A No. 1 motor 32 is installed at the top of the fixed frame 22. The end of the output shaft of the No. 1 motor 32 is inserted through the fixed frame 22 and fixedly connected to the worm gear 3.

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution, the end of the output shaft of motor 32 rotates, driving the worm gear 3 to rotate, thereby providing power output.

[0033] Working principle: First, the pressure vessel to be tested is placed in the designated area, and magnetic powder is sprayed onto the area. Then, the device is moved to the side of the pressure vessel. When testing, two electric cylinders 21 are activated, causing them to work. The output end of the electric cylinders 21 drives the fixed frame 22 to move towards the pressure vessel. Next, the first motor 32 is activated, causing it to work. The output shaft of the first motor 32 rotates, driving the worm gear 3 to rotate. The rotation of the worm gear 3 drives the meshing worm wheel 31 to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel 31 drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 23 drives the first gear 27 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 27 drives the meshing second gear 28 to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 28 drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 23 drives the adjusting frame 24 to rotate. 4. The rotation drives the clamping assembly 25 and the magnetic particle flaw detector 12 to rotate. Then, the second motor 44 is started, and the output shaft of the second motor 44 rotates, driving the threaded rod 41 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 41 drives the threaded slider 42 to move up and down with the assistance of the auxiliary rod 43. This allows for all-round adjustment of the magnetic particle flaw detector 12, making it fit against the outside of the pressure vessel. When there are cracks or defects in the material, the magnetic field is disturbed, causing the leakage magnetic field to concentrate at the defect. Then, magnetic powder is applied to the surface of the workpiece, and the magnetic powder attracts the leakage magnetic field area, forming a clear defect mark, thereby realizing defect detection. This allows for the detection of a specified area, and thus allows for all-round inspection of the pressure vessel, avoiding the problem of overly cumbersome manual operation.

[0034] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
