Abstract

PURPOSE:To inspect the whole inside of a tube at a stroke by forming plural curves on an inspecting device body at an angle inclined in the axial direction of the body, arranging detectors on respective curves and moving the device into a tube to be inspected. CONSTITUTION:Elastic supporting members 3 are arranged in the inspecting device body 1 and curves 2 are formed around the members 3 through fixing members 6. Plural curves 2 are formed with intervals in the peripheral direction of the body 1 so as to be deformed in the radius direction and inclined by an angle theta from the axial direction of the body 1. The detectors S1, S2 are arranged on the inclined parts 9. Lead wires 12, 13 are connected to respective detectors S1, S2. At the time of movement of the body into the tube 10 to be inspected, the inspecting areas A1, A2 of the detectors S1, S2 are partially superposed to inspect the whole inside of the tube 10 to be inspected. Since the curves are formed so as to be inclined in the axial direction of the body and the inspecting areas are superposed, the whole inside of the tube to be inspected can be inspected at a strobe by moving the inspecting device into the tube to be inspected.
