The accessory housing 22 is linearly and movably connected to the fixed frame 11. Specifically, the accessory housing 22 is connected to the fixed frame 11 by a slide rail for easy pulling. The equipment placement platform 23 is located at the lower part of the fixed frame 11. Specifically, the equipment placement platform 23 can be made of aluminum single panel, which is lightweight, has good compressive strength, is not easily deformed, is waterproof and moisture-proof, has strong stain resistance, strong corrosion resistance, and good weather resistance. The lifting component is located at the lower part of the fixed frame 11, and the telescopic frame 12 extends or shortens as the lifting component rises or falls.

[0023] In one specific embodiment of this application, the accessory receiving section 22 includes several individual receiving sections or is divided into several sub-receiving sections. Specifically, multiple accessory receiving sections 22 are connected to the fixed frame 11 via slide rails, and the interior of each accessory receiving section 22 can also be divided into multiple receiving spaces for classifying and placing accessories. More specifically, the exterior of the accessory receiving section 22 can also be provided with label slots or label windows and other marking structures for easy and quick retrieval.

[0024] In one specific embodiment of this application, the accessory receiving portion 22 is further provided with a limiting component. Specifically, the limiting component can be a built-in buckle in the slide rail, with a spring buckle at the end of the slide rail. When the accessory receiving portion 22 slides out to the limit position, it automatically locks to prevent the accessory receiving portion 22 from falling out.

[0025] In one specific embodiment of this application, an angle adjustment bracket is provided on the side of the flip-up part 211 facing away from the equipment receiving part 21, and a groove is provided on the side of the flip-up part 211 facing away from the equipment receiving part 21 to accommodate the angle adjustment bracket. Specifically, the angle adjustment bracket can be a locking knob type bracket, that is, the angle adjustment bracket is a support plate, which is connected to the flip-up part 211 through a hinge shaft, and a locking knob is provided on the shaft side. The locking knob increases the pressure between the support plate and the flip-up part 211 through threaded drive to lock the angle, making it convenient for the operator to observe the equipment reading.

[0026] In one specific embodiment of this application, a shielding part 4 is also provided on the upper part of the fixed frame 11. Specifically, the shielding part 4 is provided on the top of the equipment receiving part 21 and can shield the equipment that has been flipped out by the flip-up part 211. Preferably, a shielding part 4 is also provided around the equipment receiving part 21. The shielding part 4 can prevent falling objects from damaging the equipment and prevent sewage from entering the equipment.

[0027] In one specific embodiment of this application, the shielding part 4 is also provided with a wiring hole 41. Specifically, the wiring hole 41 is set according to the number and position of the detection devices of the flip-up part 211 to facilitate wiring operations during operation.

[0028] In one specific embodiment of this application, the shielding part 4 is further provided with a hanging part 5. Specifically, the hanging part 5 can be a hook or a protruding nail, etc., to facilitate hanging items such as order forms.

[0029] In one specific embodiment of this application, the side of the fixed frame 11 is also provided with a waste placement section 6. Specifically, the waste placement section 6 is a box-type structure with an open top, made of nylon fabric, which has high compressive strength, good toughness, excellent wear resistance, strong corrosion resistance, and good weather resistance. It is used to recycle waste non-destructive testing consumables (such as contrast enhancers, penetrating sprays, etc.) to avoid environmental pollution.

[0030] In one specific embodiment of this application, a protective layer 7 is provided inside the equipment receiving portion 21 and the accessory receiving portion 22. Specifically, as shown...

The protective layer 7 can prevent damage to the equipment and its accessories from impacts and also reduce wear.

[0031] During actual operation, an operator can fix a commonly used detection device with a proper volume (e.g., TOFD detection device) on the flipping part 211 through the connecting part, cover the flipping part 211, and accommodate the detection device in the device accommodation part 21, which can prevent the device from falling or being contaminated during transportation. Larger devices (e.g., magnetic particle flaw detection devices and penetrant testing devices) can be placed on the device placement platform 23 to avoid placing them on the upper part of the mobile device, which may cause the center of gravity to be too high and the device to be unstable and fall during mobile transportation. The accessories matching each device can be classified and placed in the accessory accommodation part 22. By pushing the mobile device, the rolling of the moving component 13 can conveniently transport the detection devices and accessories to the operation site, reducing the transportation burden. After arriving at the operation site, the operator immediately opens the flipping part 211 to expose the device to be used, and quickly finds and connects the accessories through the labels provided outside the accessory accommodation part 22, without having to spend too much time searching or moving the device up and down. The shielding part 4 can prevent the detection device from falling during the detection operation and protect the device from falling objects or liquids. During the use of the device, if it is necessary to adjust the use height of the device, the driving device of the lifting mechanism 32 can be operated to raise or lower the device connected to the flipping part 211 or the device placed on the device placement platform 23, avoiding the operator from moving the device up and down by hand, reducing the labor of the operator and improving the operation efficiency. If waste is generated during the operation process, such as contrast enhancer or penetrant spray can, it can be immediately put into the waste placement part 6 for recycling after the operation is completed, which can avoid environmental pollution and save the time for the operator to find the waste placement location.
