AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The detection accuracy of existing magnetic sensor-based inspection devices for wire ropes in endless handrails is compromised due to varying overlap and separation of wire rope ends, leading to either strong magnetic fields exceeding sensor limits or reduced accuracy when widening the sensor range.

Method used

A tensile strength testing apparatus with a magnetic sensor, detection magnet, demagnetizer, and magnetizer that adjusts its operation mode based on the overlap or gap between wire rope ends, either demagnetizing or magnetizing the rope to manage magnetic fields effectively.

Benefits of technology

The apparatus maintains high detection accuracy by controlling magnetic fields, allowing for precise detection of defects in wire ropes with varying end configurations without needing to widen the sensor's detectable range.

Abstract

This tensile body inspection device (1) comprises: a magnetic sensor (30) having a detection element (31) for detecting a magnetic field, the detection element (31) facing an object (6) that includes a tensile body (61), and a detection magnet (32) for generating a magnetic field that acts on the object (6); and a demagnetizer (2) for demagnetizing the tensile body (61), the demagnetizer (2) facing the object (6) at a position that is set apart from the magnetic sensor (30) in the extension direction of the tensile body (61).
