Abstract

A device for magnetic inspection of the belts (15) of belt conveyors has the load-bearing structure (3) supporting guides (2) of adjustable spacing upon which rest two components (1) of the head mounted independently of each other. Two arbitrary outer lateral surfaces of the components (1) of the head support elastically rolls for resilient engagement with the belt and the top outer surface supports interlocking mechanisms (5) slidably engaging the guides 2. Thus by positioning the components (1) at selected positions along the guides, the length of the belt (15) may be inspected along lines spaced apart across its width. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Device for magnetic inspection of the belts of belt conveyors The invention relates to a device for magnetic inspection of the belts of belt conveyors equipped with steel lines.
Until now there are no devices for magnetic inspection of the belts of belt conveyors equipped with steel lines. Inspection is carried on only visually and with the aid of X-rays.
The weakness of the described inspection is that it is impossible to include the whole length of belt and its full section. Moreover inspection with X rays is a serious health hazard.
Head for magnetic inspection of steel-rubber cables, known from the Polish Patent No 1 22500, has a body consisting of two components symmetrical in relation to the plane running across the axis of the inspected cable and joined with an articulation, the distance between these parts being variable. At the ends of the body, in its interior, there are slidable vertical rolls attached to the bottom part and sets of vertical rollers with chased grooves attached to the top and bottom part.
The rolls and rollers are equipped with the arrangements for adjusting the pressing force.
The distance between rolls and rollers is being changed depending on the dimensions of steel-rubber cable. Near horizontal rollers, there are several permanent magnets mounted on the keepers, the magnets being arranged in rows, under flat pole shoes. The keepers made of ferromagnetic material support guides made of non-magnetic material upon which rest slidable sets of flat sensors. The sensors consist of U-shaped external magnetic circuits, connected with the cores with windings.
Because of its construction, the described head is suitable for inspecting cables but cannot be used for inspecting the belts of belt conveyors.
The purpose of the invention is to construct a device that enables magnetic inspection of the belts of belt conveyors at their full width.
According to the invention, the essence of the device consists in that the load-bearing structure supports guides of adjustable spacing upon which rest two components of the head mounted independently of each other.
Two arbitary outer lateral surfaces of the head support elastically rolls and the top outer surface supports interlocking mechanisms.
Owing to the application of the device, according to the invention, it is possible to magnetically inspect the belts of belt conveyors at their full width.
The subject of the invention is illustrated in the example presented in the drawing where Fig. 1 is a diagram of the device, front view, Fig. 2 - a diagram of the device, end view, Fig. 3 - a half of the device, longitudinal section, Fig. 4 - a half of the device, transverse section.
The measuring head consists of two components 1, symmetrical in relation to the plane running across the axis of the inspected cable of the conveyor and mounted independently of each other. Both components 1 of the head rest on the guides 2 of adjustable spacing depending on thickness of the inspected belt and attached to the load-bearing structure 3.
Two arbitrary outer lateral surfaces of each component I support elastically the rolls 4 and the top outer surface of components 1 supports interlocking mechanisms 5 enabling fixing the head in a given position on the guides 2. Each component 1 of the head contains several permanent magnets 6 joined with keepers 7 and arranged in rows under two sets of pole shoes 8. The keepers 7 made of ferromagnetic material support guide shoes 9 made of paramagnetic material upon which rest slidable sets of flat sensors 10. The sensors 10 consist of C-shaped external magnetic circuits 11 and flat internal magnetic circuits 12 connected with the cores 13 with windings 14 thereon.
In order to inspect the belt 15 of a belt conveyor the measuring head is placed at the terminal position over the inspected belt 15.
The flat sensors 10 surround from the top and from the bottom a part of the belt 15 of a conveyor along pole shoes 8. The magnetic circuit is formed by lines 16 of the belt 15 of a conveyor, permanent magnets 6, two pairs of pole shoes 8 and keepers 7. The sections of lines between pole shoes 8 are magnetized.
At the damaged place the change of stray field strength around the line causes formation of an electric pulse in the windings of the sensor 10 situated over the damaged place.
After passing through a rectifier circuit, these pulses are recorded by a pen of defectograph.
After inspecting the whole length of the belt 15 at the first position of the head, the latter is being shifted to the next position and the belt 15 is inspected again. This procedure is repeated until the head is in its second terminal position.
