1. the processing cost is high;
2. the material difference between the actual detected material and the checking test block causes the generation of detection error.

The objectives and other advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure particularly pointed out in the written description and claims hereof as well as the appended drawings.
The invention aims to overcome the defects and provide the welding seam eddy current flaw detection checking test block with small detection error and low cost.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical solution of the invention is as follows: the utility model provides a welding seam eddy current inspection detects check-up test block, includes the inspection test block body, the inspection test block body includes parent metal district, welding seam district and a plurality of crackle structure, the parent metal district includes first inspection test block and second inspection test block, one side of first inspection test block is provided with first grooving, one side of second inspection test block is provided with the second grooving, the welding seam district sets up first grooving with between the second grooving, a plurality of crackle structure sets up in the welding seam district.
Preferably, the inclination angle of the first beveling is 0-60 degrees, and the inclination angle of the second beveling is 0-60 degrees.
Preferably, the inclination angle of the first beveling is 30 degrees, the inclination angle of the second beveling is 30 degrees, and then the first test block, the second test block and the welding zone form a plane welding line test block body together.
Preferably, the inclination angle of the first beveling is 30 degrees, the inclination angle of the second beveling is 0 degrees, and then the first inspection test block, the second inspection test block and the weld zone together form a T-shaped weld joint inspection test block body.
Preferably, the materials of the first test block and the second test block are consistent with the material of the part to be detected, so that the detection error is reduced.
The invention also provides a manufacturing method of the welding seam eddy current flaw detection check test block, which comprises the following steps:
s1, selecting materials: selecting materials consistent with the material of the part to be detected as a first detection test block and a second detection test block;
s2, groove machining: processing one corresponding side of the first test block and one corresponding side of the second test block respectively to form a first beveling end and a second beveling end;
s3, welding: welding a welding seam area between the first groove and the second groove;
s4, cooling: after welding, immediately immersing the steel plate into ice water for cooling to form a crack structure;

The principle of forming cracks in the manufacturing process of the invention is as follows: after welding, the checking test block in a high-temperature state is put into ice water for rapid cooling, and because the temperature difference between a welding seam area and a base material area and the flowability of crystal grains are different, the shrinkage rate of the base material area is much smaller than that of the welding seam area under the drive of thermal expansion and cold contraction force, so that the crystal grains in the welding seam area are pulled apart into an opening along a grain boundary under the pulling of shrinkage stress, and the crack is represented as a crack on a macroscopic level. In addition, another principle of cracking the test block is to utilize the hydrogen embrittlement principle of steel materials, wherein the hydrogen sources mainly include two points: firstly, at high welding temperature, hydrogen ions in the welding rod and the coating are dissolved in the check test block. Secondly, after welding, the high-temperature test block enters into ice water, and hydrogen ions in the water quickly diffuse into gaps of metal lattices under a large temperature difference. Along with the reduction of the temperature, the solubility of hydrogen ions in the weld zone of the test block is reduced, the hydrogen ions are gathered together to form hydrogen to be released, a certain high pressure is generated, so that a hardened structure is formed in the weld zone, and finally, a crack structure is generated in the weld zone under the knocking of an external force.
By adopting the technical scheme, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. according to the invention, the material which is consistent with the material of the part to be detected is selected as the detection test block, so that the crack structure on the part to be detected is simulated, the detection error is greatly reduced, and the accuracy of the detection data is higher.
2. After welding, the steel plate is immediately put into ice water for rapid cooling, and the shrinkage rate of the base material area is much smaller than that of the welding seam area under the drive of thermal expansion and cold contraction force because of the temperature difference between the welding seam area and the base material area and the different flowability of crystal grains, so that the welding seam area is easy to generate a crack structure under the pull of shrinkage stress, a laser grooving instrument or a machining grooving instrument is not required to be purchased for manufacturing, and the manufacturing cost is greatly reduced.
3. During welding, hydrogen ions in the welding rod and the coating are dissolved in the checking test block at high temperature, the hydrogen ions are dissolved in the checking test block after welding, the hydrogen ions decomposed in water vapor can also enter the checking test block, the solubility of the hydrogen ions is reduced along with the reduction of the temperature, the hydrogen is released and gathered together to generate certain high pressure, hardening tissues are formed in a welding seam area, and finally, a crack structure is generated in the welding seam area.
