Description

Technical Field

Background
The traditional ultrasonic nondestructive detection technology basically utilizes a piezoelectric transducer to transmit and receive ultrasonic signals, and the method has the advantages of higher sensitivity, simple steps and lower price of devices, so the method is widely used. However, the bandwidth of this method is limited, the transducer must be attached to the sample for detection, and is relatively easily interfered by the external environment, and under some severe industrial environments (such as high temperature, high pressure, high corrosion, etc.), this technique has great limitations, and can not realize non-contact online detection.
Compared with the traditional ultrasonic transducer technology, laser ultrasonic is a non-contact detection method, the basic idea is that pulse laser is irradiated on a workpiece to be detected, ultrasonic signals generated by the workpiece to be detected are detected through a vibration meter or a transducer, the method can detect the workpiece to be detected without contacting the surface of the workpiece, and the detected signals have high resolution in time and space.
Common laser ultrasonic excitation is single-point light source excitation, the detection efficiency is low, the amplitude of an excited ultrasonic signal is small, and the signal is easily annihilated in noise. Common laser ultrasonic detection methods include an optical deflection detection technology, an optical heterodyne interference technology, a double-wave mixing interference detection technology and the like, but the methods have some defects. The optical deflection detection technology is generally resistant to interference and the detection method is limited by the response time and sensitivity of the optical intensity receiving device. The optical heterodyne interference technology has wide response frequency and is sensitive to surface displacement, but can not eliminate the interference of various vibrations on the detection in an industrial field, and is generally only suitable for ultrasonic vibration detection of a smooth surface under the condition of a laboratory. The double-wave mixing interferometer has strong light-gathering capacity and can measure a rough surface, but the existing double-wave mixing interferometer has no scanning function and can only complete the detection of each measuring point of a test piece by moving the tested workpiece.

As shown in fig. 1, the present application discloses a laser ultrasonic nondestructive testing apparatus 100, which includes a fiber-optic pulse laser 13 for generating a pulse laser. The array generating module 14 is configured to expand the pulsed laser into a plurality of beams of pulsed laser for output. The first galvanometer scanner 15 is used for projecting the plurality of pulsed laser beams of the array generating module 14 onto the test piece 16. The detection module 17 is used for collecting the ultrasonic signals modulated by the tested piece 16 and converting the ultrasonic signals into electric signals to be output.

The fiber pulse laser 13 is connected to the array generating module 14, and the synchronizing signal generating module 12 is connected to the fiber pulse laser 13 and the processing module 11, respectively. The array generating module 14 includes an optical fiber coupler 141, and the optical fiber coupler 141 can expand one path of pulse laser input by the optical fiber pulse laser 13 into at least two paths of pulse laser; the optical fiber coupler 141 includes at least 2 optical fibers, and the time that the pulse laser passes through on each optical fiber is different, so that each pulse laser has a certain time interval when emitting; the fiber coupler 141 can adjust the time interval of emitting each pulse laser by adjusting the length of each optical fiber.
The array generation module 14 further comprises at least 2 collimators, each collimator is connected to one optical fiber, and the array generation module 14 can change the distance between each collimator, so as to adjust the distance between each pulse laser, so that the distance between the positions where each pulse laser is projected to the tested piece 16 is changed, and further the propagation direction of the ultrasonic signal excited by the pulse laser irradiated on the tested piece 16 is influenced, so that the propagation direction of the ultrasonic signal is controllable, the tested piece 16 can be detected in an all-dimensional manner, and the detection range is wider. As an implementation manner, the optical fiber coupler 141 is configured to equally divide optical signals to four output ends, the optical fiber coupler 141 is connected to 4 optical fibers, which are the first optical fiber 142, the second optical fiber 143, the third optical fiber 144, and the fourth optical fiber 145 respectively, and the pulse laser output by the optical fiber pulse laser 13 is equally divided into four optical signals with equal optical intensity through the first optical fiber 142, the second optical fiber 143, the third optical fiber 144, and the fourth optical fiber 145. Corresponding to the 4 optical fibers, the array generating module 14 in this embodiment is provided with 4 collimators, i.e. a first collimator 146 and a second collimatorA collimator 147, a third collimator 148 and a fourth collimator 149, the first optical fiber 142 being connected to the first collimator 146, the second optical fiber 143 being connected to the second collimator 147, the third optical fiber 144 being connected to the third collimator 148, the fourth optical fiber 145 being connected to the fourth collimator 149.

Another implementation is possible for changing the propagation direction of the ultrasonic signal excited by the pulsed laser on the test piece 16, in which θ0Deflection angle in the normal direction of the ultrasonic wave, d0Δ t is a time interval at which each laser beam is emitted in order to irradiate the distance between each laser beam on the test piece 16.
As another implementation manner, the array generating module 14 can change the time of each pulse laser reaching the tested object 16 by changing the length of each optical fiber, so that the arrival of each pulse laser has a certain delay, and further change the propagation direction of the ultrasonic signal in the tested object 16, where the delay time can be obtained according to the preset length of the optical fiber. As an implementation mode, the length of the first optical fiber 142 is 0.5m, the length of the second optical fiber 143 is 40.5m, the length of the third optical fiber 144 is 80.5m, and the length of the fourth optical fiber 145 is 120.5m, so that four ultrasonic signals can be excited on the tested piece 16 and superimposed and interfered at the defect position on the tested piece 16, the amplitude of the ultrasonic signals is enlarged, and the signal-to-noise ratio is improved.
As an implementation manner, the first galvanometer scanner 15 includes a mirror, and the mirror is driven by an X-Y axis motor to deflect to implement plane scanning, so as to irradiate each path of pulse laser emitted from the array generating module 14 onto the tested piece 16 in a scanning manner, so that the irradiation range of all pulse lasers can cover the surface of the tested piece 16. When the pulse laser is irradiated onto the surface of the test piece 16 and the pulse laser has an energy insufficient to melt the test piece 16, a part of the energy of the pulse laser is absorbed by the test piece 16 and another part is reflected from the surface of the test piece 16 due to the thermo-elastic effect. When the test piece 16 absorbs the energy of the laser light to rapidly raise the temperature thereof, so that the test piece 16 expands, in this case, a part of the surface of the test piece 16 deforms, and the deformation amount periodically changes along with the continuous irradiation of the pulse laser light, that is, the part of the surface of the test piece 16 periodically deforms, thereby causing an ultrasonic signal to be excited in the test piece 16. Because the amplitude of the ultrasonic signal that the single-point pulse laser can excite is small, the output power of the fiber pulse laser 13 needs to be increased to be able to excite the ultrasonic signal with the large amplitude, however, due to the thermal ignition effect, the increase of the output power of the fiber pulse laser 13 can cause the tested piece 16 to absorb excessive energy in a short time, so that the tested piece 16 generates the condition of melting loss. In the application, the output of the pulse laser is equally divided into a plurality of parts through the first scanning galvanometer 15, so that the power of the laser pulse output by each path can reach the maximum value of the thermoelastic effect, ultrasonic signals adjustable in all directions can be excited, meanwhile, coherent superposition can be performed among a plurality of ultrasonic signals, and the amplitude of the ultrasonic signals generated on the tested piece 16 is further enhanced.
