Ultrasonic detection is one of the most common nondestructive detection methods, but is limited by factors such as wavelength, and the traditional linear ultrasonic nondestructive detection method is not sensitive to early-stage micro damage of a component, such as microcrack, mechanical property degradation, fatigue damage and the like, and is difficult to effectively detect. The nonlinear ultrasonic detection utilizes the principles of higher harmonic, subharmonic, beam aliasing and the like generated when ultrasonic waves pass through micro-damage, overcomes the defect of micro-damage of the traditional linear ultrasonic detection, and has wide application prospect.
However, in the actual non-linear ultrasonic nondestructive testing, in order to avoid the non-linear influence of the testing system, the requirements on the stability of the transducer clamping and coupling are very strict, the existing simple manual clamp is labor-consuming to install, complicated in steps and insufficient in universality, so that the field non-linear ultrasonic testing is very difficult, and the reliability of the measuring result is poor. Especially for curved surface members, the difficulty of clamping the transducer is higher, the measurement efficiency is greatly influenced, and accurate and stable measurement results are difficult to obtain.
In order to improve the accuracy of the nonlinear ultrasonic detection result and the usability in the implementation process, the design of the portable automatic clamping device for the ultrasonic nonlinear nondestructive detection has important significance for practical engineering application.

In addition, the invention patent with the publication number of CN205581057U and the publication date of 2016, 9 and 14 provides an oblique incidence nonlinear ultrasonic nondestructive testing device, but the device can only be used for nonlinear ultrasonic testing of a plane workpiece, and can only be used for fixed position testing, so that the portability is poor.
