Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasonic testing and positioning equipment technology, specifically to a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of ultrasonic testing (such as industrial non-destructive testing), the size (diameter, shape) of ultrasonic probes varies depending on the object being tested and the testing scenario. Traditional ultrasonic testing clamps are typically designed for a "one-to-one" fit, meaning that a specific size probe requires a dedicated clamp. If the probe size needs to be changed, the entire clamp often needs to be replaced, leading to the following problems:

[0003] Poor compatibility: It cannot quickly adapt to probes of various sizes, limiting the flexibility of detection scenarios;

[0004] High cost: Frequent replacement of clamps increases equipment procurement and maintenance costs;

[0005] Low efficiency: Replacing the clamp requires reinstallation and recalibration, which affects the testing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp. By replacing the annular standard clamp blocks with different inner diameters (with uniform outer diameter), it can quickly adapt to ultrasonic probes of various sizes without replacing the entire clamp. It has higher compatibility, lower replacement cost, and more convenient replacement operation.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp includes a vertically arranged clamp body, a positioning body horizontally connected to the bottom rear side of the clamp body, and two through-holes in the clamp body; each mounting hole has an annular retaining edge connected to its front edge, and each mounting hole has an annular standard clamp of different specifications detachably installed from back to front; each annular standard clamp has the same outer diameter but different inner diameters.

[0009] By adopting the above solution, the ultrasonic testing clamp can be quickly adapted to various sizes of ultrasonic probes by replacing the annular standard clamp blocks with different inner diameters (with uniform outer diameter), without replacing the entire clamp. It has higher compatibility, lower replacement cost, and more convenient replacement operation.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp, the inner diameter of the annular stop is larger than the inner diameter of all the annular standard clamps, ensuring that the annular standard clamps can be smoothly installed along the rear side of the mounting hole. At the same time, the axial movement range of the annular standard clamps is limited by the front edge of the annular stop, making it more stable after installation.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp, the mounting hole has two structural forms:

[0012] 1. The mounting holes are single-type mounting holes, each independently created and not interconnected. The annular standard clamping blocks installed within these single mounting holes are also single-type annular clamping blocks. Each single-type annular clamping block comprises an annular frame, an outer anti-slip pad covering the outer surface of the annular frame, and an inner anti-slip pad covering the inner surface of the annular frame. The advantages of single-type annular clamping blocks lie in their greater flexibility during installation and lower cost. The anti-slip pads enhance friction, ensuring accurate positioning and no wobbling of the ultrasonic probe after fixation, thus improving detection accuracy.

[0013] II. The assembly holes are modular assembly holes, with each hole interconnected. The annular standard clamps installed within these modular assembly holes are modular annular clamps. Each modular annular clamp includes two sets of annular frames, a connecting frame linking the two sets of annular frames, an outer anti-slip pad covering the outer surfaces of the annular frames and the connecting frame, and an inner anti-slip pad covering the inner surfaces of the annular frames and the connecting frame. The advantage of modular annular clamps is that they are easier to install, eliminating the possibility of inconsistencies in the type of annular standard clamps installed in the left and right assembly holes. The anti-slip pads enhance friction, ensuring accurate positioning and no wobbling after the ultrasonic probe is fixed, thus improving detection accuracy.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp, the surfaces of the outer and inner anti-slip pads are provided with raised anti-slip textures (such as grid patterns, wave patterns, or stripes) to enhance the friction between the clamp block and the ultrasonic probe and the clamp body, and to prevent the probe from sliding during the testing process.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp, the top and left and right sides of the clamp body are respectively provided with decorative lugs and decorative plugs, which can improve the overall appearance of the clamp.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. High compatibility: By replacing standard clamps with different inner diameters (with uniform outer diameter), it can quickly adapt to various sizes of ultrasonic probes without replacing the entire clamp, significantly reducing usage costs;

[0018] 2. Easy to operate: The ring-shaped standard clamping block adopts a rear-side insertion method, making disassembly and installation more convenient without disassembling the clamping body or positioning body;

[0019] 3. Stable structure: The annular retaining edge restricts the axial movement of the standard clamping block, and the anti-slip pad enhances friction, ensuring that the probe is accurately positioned and does not wobble after being fixed, thus improving detection accuracy;

[0020] 4. High scalability: The design of single-type and combined-type ring clamps provides different options for practical applications, meeting the needs of different detection scenarios. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. 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.

[0032] Example 1, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a highly compatible ultrasonic testing clamp is provided for positioning a dual-ultrasonic probe ultrasonic testing instrument. Specifically, it includes a vertically positioned clamp body 1 (made of high-strength aluminum alloy), a horizontally connected positioning body 2 (made of high-strength aluminum alloy) connected to the bottom rear side of the clamp body 1, and two through-holes in the clamp body 1 (the positions can be symmetrically distributed according to common probe sizes). Each mounting hole has an annular retaining edge 3 (approximately 2mm thick) connected to its front edge. Different sized annular standard clamping blocks are detachably installed in each mounting hole from back to front. Each annular standard clamping block has the same outer diameter but different inner diameters. The adaptation logic is as follows: if the diameter of the ultrasonic probe to be tested is D, select an annular standard clamping block with an inner diameter of D (outer diameter uniformly D0), insert the annular standard clamping block from the rear side of the mounting hole until the annular retaining edge 3 restricts its axial movement, and the mounting hole fits tightly against the outer wall of the probe, thus achieving fixation. This ultrasonic testing clamp can quickly adapt to various sizes of ultrasonic probes by replacing the ring-shaped standard clamps with different inner diameters (with uniform outer diameter), without having to replace the entire clamp. It has higher compatibility, lower replacement cost, and more convenient replacement operation.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the inner diameter of the annular retaining edge 3 is larger than the inner diameter of all the annular standard clamping blocks (for example, if the minimum inner diameter of the standard clamping block is 20mm, then the inner diameter of the annular retaining edge 3 is set to 25mm), ensuring that the annular standard clamping block can be smoothly installed along the rear side of the mounting hole. At the same time, the axial movement range of the annular standard clamping block is limited by the front edge of the annular retaining edge 3, making it more stable after installation.

[0034] like Figures 3 to 4 As shown, the assembly holes are single-type assembly holes 4, each independently opened and not interconnected. The annular standard clamping blocks installed within the single-type assembly holes 4 are single-type annular clamping blocks 5. The single-type annular clamping block 5 includes an annular frame 6 (made of nylon, with its total outer diameter interfering with the inner diameter of the assembly hole to ensure stable assembly), an outer anti-slip pad 7 (made of nitrile rubber, 2mm thick) covering the outer surface of the annular frame 6, and an inner anti-slip pad 8 (made of nitrile rubber, 2mm thick) covering the inner surface of the annular frame 6. The advantage of the single-type annular clamping block 5 is its greater flexibility in installation and lower cost; the anti-slip pad enhances friction, ensuring accurate positioning and no shaking after the ultrasonic probe is fixed, thus improving detection accuracy.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the surfaces of the outer anti-slip pad 7 and the inner anti-slip pad 8 are provided with raised anti-slip patterns (which are stripes, or of course, grid patterns or wavy patterns) to enhance the friction between the clamping block and the ultrasonic probe and the clamping body 1, and prevent the probe from sliding during the detection process.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, decorative lugs and decorative plugs are provided on the top and left and right sides of the main body 1 of the clamp, which can enhance the overall appearance of the clamp.

[0037] Example 2, as Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is only that, based on Embodiment 1, the assembly holes in Embodiment 1 are replaced by combined assembly holes 9 instead of single assembly holes 4. Each assembly hole is interconnected (i.e., two adjacent assembly holes on the left and right are connected). The annular standard clamping block installed in the combined assembly hole 9 is a combined annular clamping block 10. The combined annular clamping block 10 includes two sets of annular skeletons 6 (made of nylon, with an interference fit between the total outer diameter and the inner diameter of the assembly hole to ensure stable assembly), a connecting skeleton 11 (made of nylon) connecting the two sets of annular skeletons 6, an outer anti-slip pad 7 (made of nitrile rubber, 2mm thick) covering the outer surfaces of the annular skeletons 6 and the connecting skeleton 11, and an inner anti-slip pad 8 (made of nitrile rubber, 2mm thick) covering the inner surfaces of the annular skeletons 6 and the connecting skeleton 11. The advantage of the combined annular clamping block 10 is that it is more convenient to install, and there is no situation where the annular standard clamping block models installed in the left and right assembly holes are inconsistent; the anti-slip pad can enhance the friction, ensuring that the ultrasonic probe is accurately positioned and does not wobble after being fixed, thus improving the detection accuracy.

[0038] The assembly and usage procedures for the above two embodiments are as follows:

[0039] S1. Select a standard ring clamp: Select a single or combined ring clamp 10 (with uniform outer diameter) with a matching inner diameter according to the diameter of the ultrasonic probe to be tested. The inner diameter of the standard ring clamp must be strictly matched with the probe diameter (error ≤ 0.5mm) to avoid unstable fixation due to excessive gap.

[0040] S2. Install the clamping block: Push the selected annular standard clamping block axially from the rear side of the assembly hole until the front side of the annular standard clamping block contacts the front side of the annular flange 3 (you can confirm that it is in place by feeling or tapping it lightly with a tool).

[0041] S3. Fix the ultrasonic probe: Push the ultrasonic probe along the anti-slip pad on the inner surface of the annular standard clamp until the probe is tightly fitted to the clamp (the anti-slip texture prevents the probe from sliding).

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
