Description
The present invention relates to a water-immersion ultrasonic testing apparatus, and more particularly, to a water-immersion ultrasonic testing apparatus for tracking a path of an ultrasonic wave by using a laser, The present invention relates to a water immersion ultrasound diagnostic test apparatus capable of reducing the amount of water.
In order to guarantee the reliability of the product, there are two methods for securing the experimental data.
This is a nondestructive test that evaluates mechanical strength through observation and tensile testing of materials, equipment, and structures directly, and tests the properties, condition, and internal structure of the material or specimen without changing the original shape and function of the specimen. .
Now, nondestructive tests with advantages of improvement of reliability, improvement of manufacturing technology, cost reduction, etc. have been widely used. In particular, ultrasonic testing can be easily performed even when the thickness of a test sample is thick. The test is widely used.
Generally, an ultrasonic test is a method of detecting discontinuity or defects existing in a test body by introducing an ultrasonic wave into the test body.
The ultrasonic test is widely applied to measure the size, thickness, material, uniformity of the specimen as well as to measure the size and position of the discontinuity present in the specimen.
The TOFD (Time Of Flight Diffraction) method developed for the inspection of welds has been recognized as a high-precision defect depth detection technology, since ultrasonic diffraction signals generated at the defect tip are received and evaluated in the ultrasonic test.
1 is a view showing the principle of an ultrasonic flaw detection test by the TOFD method.
The TOFD method is based on the use of a lateral wave (LW), which directs two transducers at regular intervals on the surface of the test specimen, and which propagates directly between the transducers, or a reflected wave at the bottom of the specimen, The height is measured.
However, in the TOFD method, when the thickness of the test sample is small, the interval between the side wave and the bottom wave is short, so that the diffraction wave of the defect can be combined.
That is, when the defect end is close to the flaw surface side or the bottom surface side, there arises a problem that a dead band occurs where the position of the defect end is not clearly measured due to interference with the side wave or the bottom reflection wave.
Therefore, an I-TOFD (Immersion Time of Flight Diffraction) method has been proposed to overcome the problems of the TOFD method.
Fig. 2 is a view showing the principle of an ultrasonic flaw detection test by the I-TOFD method. Fig.
The I-TOFD method is a method that utilizes the phenomenon that the waves are refracted in the liquid contact medium, unlike the TOFD method, which detects defects by using the time difference of reflected waves by contacting two transducers directly to the test body.
That is, the I-TOFD method is a method of detecting defects by inserting ultrasonic waves in air without contacting two probes directly with the specimen, inserting the specimen into water, and adjusting the angle and position to analyze the pulse.
However, since the I-TOFD method is required to irradiate the ultrasonic wave without contacting the test body, there is a problem that an ultrasonic wave can not be irradiated to the precise position, resulting in an error.
In addition to the construction or assembly of welded structures in the field, information on the depth of defects is very important in predicting the life expectancy and soundness of parts and materials in operation and minimizing errors.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to solve such conventional problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus, an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus, Which is capable of reducing the number of the ultrasonic waves to be measured.
According to the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for immersion ultrasonic testing for detecting a defect in a specimen, the apparatus comprising: a probe for detecting the defect using ultrasonic waves; An interval adjusting unit connected to the transducer for adjusting an interval between the probe and the test body; And a laser irradiating unit for irradiating a laser beam to a region of the ultrasonic wave reaching the test body.
The apparatus may further include a path adjusting unit connected to the laser irradiating unit and adjusting the irradiation path of the laser.
The gap adjusting unit may include: a fixing unit; And a coupling part connected to the transducer at one end and connected to the fixing part at the other end and extending in the direction of the test piece or reducing the direction of the fixing part to adjust the distance between the probe and the test piece.
The path adjusting unit may include: a sliding unit surrounding the side surface of the gap adjusting unit and slidably moving along the gap adjusting unit; A first arm rotatably connected to the sliding portion; The first arm may be rotatably connected to the first arm and the other end may be rotatably connected to the first arm.
The controller may further include a control unit for controlling the rotation angle of the first arm and the second arm by moving the sliding unit in accordance with the movement of the coupling unit to control the laser to be irradiated to an area where the ultrasonic waves reach the specimen can do.
The path adjusting unit may further include a jig for fixing the laser irradiating unit to the path adjusting unit.
According to the present invention, it is possible to visually confirm the dashed line of the ultrasonic wave by adopting the laser irradiation part for irradiating the laser to the area where the ultrasonic waves reach the test body, thereby improving the reliability of the defect detection result.
In addition, by adopting the path adjusting unit and changing the irradiation path of the laser, the broken line of the ultrasonic wave can be easily confirmed.
Further, since the probe is connected to the engaging portion provided so as to be stretchable and retractable from the fixed portion, the distance between the test body and the probe can be more easily adjusted, thereby preventing occurrence of dead zones.
Further, by moving the sliding portion in accordance with the movement of the engaging portion, the irradiation path of the laser can be more easily converted.
In addition, by adopting the control section capable of controlling the movement of the sliding section, the movement of the sliding section can be made more precise and the irradiation path of the laser can be more easily converted.
Further, by providing a jig for fixing the laser irradiation part to the path adjusting part, the error can be reduced, and the reliability of the defect detection result can be improved.
