Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of weld inspection technology, specifically a non-destructive testing device for weld sealing. Background Technology

[0002] Magnetic particle testing, as an important method of non-destructive testing, has a wide application in weld sealing inspection. Its principle is that when a ferromagnetic workpiece is magnetized, if defects exist on or near the surface, the magnetic field lines will be distorted, forming a leakage magnetic field. This attracts magnetic particles, forming magnetic traces, thus revealing the location and shape of the defects.

[0003] When performing non-destructive testing on a workpiece, the inspector needs to hold the testing instrument with one hand and the magnetic suspension sprayer with the other hand while moving around, and observe the area being tested. This results in high labor intensity for the inspector and is prone to misjudgment, missed judgment, or missed inspection. To solve the problems in the prior art, utility model with announcement number CN206161589U discloses an automatic magnetic particle testing device (hereinafter referred to as prior art 1), which includes a movable frame that can be moved or fixed on the workpiece to be tested and a magnetization testing mechanism installed on the movable frame. The magnetization testing mechanism includes four electromagnets arranged orthogonally to each other and a magnetic suspension spraying device. The electromagnets extend downward to near the surface of the workpiece to be tested.

[0004] In the prior art 1, four orthogonally arranged flaw detection electromagnets and a magnetic suspension spraying device are used to inspect butt welds, which improves the inspection efficiency and effectively reduces the labor intensity of the inspection personnel. However, the contact surface shape of the existing flaw detection electromagnets is fixed and cannot be changed according to the surface shape of the workpiece. When inspecting workpieces with complex shapes, good surface contact cannot be formed, resulting in insufficient local magnetic field strength and missed detection of small defects. Or, due to the gap between the magnetic yoke head and the workpiece, false defect signals are generated, which seriously reduces the magnetization effect of the magnetic particle flaw detector on the workpiece and greatly reduces the detection sensitivity of defects. Utility Model Content

In practical use, it can solve the problems in the prior art where the contact surface shape of the electromagnet is fixed and cannot be changed according to the surface shape of the workpiece.

[0026] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] See Figures 1-3 This embodiment discloses a detection device for detecting welds, specifically a non-destructive testing device for weld sealing, including a magnetic yoke body 101, a connecting part 102 and magnetic pole feet 103, wherein the connecting part 102 is symmetrically installed at the left and right ends of the magnetic yoke body 101. The magnetic pole foot 103 is connected to the magnetic yoke body 101 through the connecting part 102, and the magnetic pole foot 103 is rotatably connected to the connecting part 102; the connecting part 102 is rotatably connected to the magnetic yoke body 101, and a locking mechanism 104 for fixing the connecting part 102 is installed on the magnetic yoke body 101; A magnetic powder spraying device 105 is installed on the magnetic yoke body 101.

[0028] In this invention, the magnetic yoke body 101 is a conventional magnetization device in the prior art. The magnetic yoke body 101 contains an electromagnetic coil, which generates a magnetic field when energized. This magnetic field is transmitted to the weld area through the magnetic pole feet 103, thus magnetizing the workpiece. Its structure and function will not be described in detail here. By rotatably connecting the connecting part 102 to the magnetic yoke body 101, the magnetic pole feet 103 can rotate around the axis of the connecting part 102, changing the orientation of the magnetic pole feet 103. The rotated magnetic pole feet 103 can be adjusted according to the surface shape of the workpiece, ensuring the magnetic pole feet 103... 3. It can fit with the surface of workpieces of different shapes (e.g., V-shaped, inverted V-shaped, flat, etc.); the magnetic pole foot 103 is rotatably connected to the connecting part 102 through a rotating shaft, so that the magnetic pole foot 103 can rotate around the rotating shaft, change the setting angle of the magnetic pole foot 103, and ensure that the magnetic pole foot 103 can fit with the connecting surface of the workpiece (e.g., V-shaped, inverted V-shaped, T-shaped, etc.) at different angles; it ensures that the magnetic pole foot 103 can also fit with the surface of the workpiece on workpieces with different angles, forming good surface contact, breaking through the limitation of the fixed angle of the traditional magnetic yoke, and adapting to complex weld shapes.

[0029] In some embodiments, the locking mechanism 104 includes a locking pin 106 and a tension spring 107. The locking pin 106 is slidably mounted on the yoke body 101, and the locking pin 106 is connected to the yoke body 101 via the tension spring 107. The connecting portion 102 is provided with a locking hole 108 for engaging with the locking pin 106. In this embodiment, one end of the tension spring 107 is fixedly connected to the yoke body 101, and the other end is fixedly connected to the locking pin 106. When it is necessary to rotate the connecting portion 102 to adjust the orientation of the magnetic pole foot 103, the locking pin 106 is pulled outward. After the tension spring 107 is stretched, the locking pin 106 disengages from the locking hole 108. At this time, the connecting portion 102 can rotate freely around the yoke body 101 to ensure that the magnetic pole foot 103 can fit against the surface of workpieces of different shapes.

[0030] In some embodiments, there are a plurality of locking holes 108, which are equally spaced along the circumferential direction of the connecting portion 102. By having the limiting holes equally spaced along the circumferential direction of the connecting portion 102 cooperate with the locking pin 106, multiple angle selections can be provided. Compared with continuous adjustment, standardized angle switching can be quickly achieved without complex scale markings.

[0031] In some embodiments, a rotating ring 109 is rotatably mounted on the locking pin 106. The rotating ring 109 is connected to the end of the tension spring 107 away from the magnetic yoke body 101, and the locking pin 106 is provided with threads. In this embodiment, the locking pin 106 is detachably connected to the magnetic yoke body 101 via the threads. When the connecting block drives the magnetic pole foot 103 to rotate to a predetermined position, rotating the locking pin 106 causes the threads on the locking pin 106 to engage with the magnetic yoke body 101 to perform a secondary locking of the locking pin 106. The engagement between the locking pin 106 and the locking hole 108 provides initial positioning, preventing the connecting part 102 from rotating freely. The threads and the magnetic yoke body 101 form a threaded pair for secondary locking. This prevents the locking pin 106 from loosening after vibration, which would affect the stable locking state of the connecting part 102.

[0032] In some embodiments, a battery 110 is mounted on the yoke body 101, and the battery 110 is detachably connected to the yoke body 101. In this embodiment, the yoke body 101 is provided with a slot for cooperating with the battery 110. The battery 110 is detachably connected to the yoke body 101 through the slot, which facilitates the installation and replacement of the battery 110, enabling the yoke body 101 to receive a continuous power supply. After being inserted into the slot, the battery 110 supplies power to the electromagnetic coil inside the yoke body 101, providing the current required for magnetization.

[0033] In some embodiments, a limiting bolt 111 is threaded onto the magnetic pole foot 103. In this embodiment, the friction between the magnetic pole foot 103 and the connecting part 102 can be adjusted by rotating the limiting bolt 111, allowing the magnetic pole foot 103 to switch between a fixed angle and a rotatable state. When the limiting bolt 111 is tightened, the magnetic pole foot 103 and the connecting part 102 form a rigid connection, ensuring a tight magnetic circuit closure and reducing magnetic leakage.

[0034] In some embodiments, the magnetic powder spraying device 105 includes a magnetic powder tank 112 and a spraying assembly 113. The magnetic powder tank 112 is connected to the magnetic yoke body 101, and the spraying assembly 113 is mounted on the magnetic powder tank 112. The magnetic powder tank 112 is fixedly mounted on the magnetic yoke body 101 and is used to store dry or wet magnetic powder. In this embodiment, the magnetic powder tank 112 is made of transparent material to allow observation of the amount of magnetic powder in the tank. A compressed air source is installed on the magnetic powder tank 112 to supply clean and dry compressed air into the magnetic powder tank 112, so that the magnetic powder in the magnetic powder tank 112 can be sprayed out by the spraying assembly 113 to cover the weld area.

[0035] In some embodiments, the spraying assembly 113 includes a nozzle and a telescopic tube 115, the nozzle being connected to the magnetic powder tank 112 via the telescopic tube 115. In this embodiment, the telescopic tube 115 is a corrugated pipe. By setting the telescopic tube 115, the position of the nozzle can be adjusted to accurately and evenly spray magnetic powder onto the weld seam to adapt to complex weld seam structures; it can also prevent the nozzle from directly contacting the workpiece, preventing contamination or collision.

[0036] In some embodiments, a baffle 116 is installed on the nozzle, and the baffle 116 is detachably connected to the nozzle. In this embodiment, the baffle 116 is detachably connected to the nozzle by bolts, and the bottom end of the baffle 116 is located below the nozzle. The baffle 116 can form a physical barrier, confining the magnetic powder (or magnetic suspension) sprayed from the nozzle within the baffle 116, preventing the magnetic powder from splashing in all directions, ensuring that the magnetic powder only acts on the surface of the workpiece being inspected, and reducing the contamination of other parts of the equipment or operators by the magnetic powder. Furthermore, the bottom end of the baffle 116 is located below the nozzle, so that when the nozzle approaches the workpiece for inspection, the baffle 116 contacts the workpiece surface first, avoiding impact between the nozzle and the workpiece that could cause nozzle deformation or blockage. In the non-working state, the baffle 116 can act as a physical barrier, preventing residual oil, moisture, or other impurities on the workpiece surface from splashing into the nozzle, avoiding clogging of the nozzle or contaminating the cleaning magnetic powder in the magnetic powder tank 112.

[0037] In some embodiments, a handle 114 is connected to the magnetic yoke body 101. The handle 114 facilitates the movement and positioning of the magnetic yoke body 101 by the operator.

[0038] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, those skilled in the art, upon learning the basic inventive concept, can make other changes and modifications to these embodiments. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments as well as all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present invention.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. It should be noted that any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
