Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for error detection and material testing in continuous strips, profiles and tubes with ultrasonic signals, which are distributed from across the width of the strip or profile or the circumference of the tube and stationary measuring heads are introduced into the plastic and their reflected signals from the measuring heads recorded and fed to an evaluation unit.
- the invention has for its object to provide a device for the complete detection of errors and seamless material testing in continuous strips, profiles and tubes.
- the measuring heads are arranged next to one another and transversely to the direction of travel of the strip, profile or tube in such a way that they capture the strip or tube without gaps, and that the evaluation unit detects them from the individual Measuring heads for the same unit of length of the strip, profile or tube supplied reflected signals linked together in such a way that only the errors are processed.
- individual sensors can be combined to form a block or several segments.
- the signals from adjacent measuring heads are assigned a differential level and / or addition level, each differential level being assigned an error display and each addition level assigned to the adjacent measuring heads being assigned a differential level with error display and an addition level in a subsequent link level.
- the evaluation unit is supplied with many ultrasound signals from the individual measuring heads for the same length unit of the strip / profile / tube.
- the large amount of signals is reduced to a few. This makes it possible for the Evaluation unit delivers a manageable result for the subsequent unit / operator.
- the invention assumes that the signals picked up by two measuring heads are generally only the same if no fault location has been determined. If an error location is determined, it will appear in one of the two signals, so that when the two signals are subtracted, the error location can be clearly identified.
- FIG. 1 shows a section of a tube wall with four assigned measuring heads in cross section
- Figure 3 shows an evaluation unit for linking signals.
- a plurality of measuring heads 1, 2, 3, 4 are arranged around the entire circumference of the tube R, the ultrasonic pulses in initiate the tube R and reflected signals S1, S2, S3, S4 this
- Typical reflected signals in FIG. 2 are signals S1, S2. With these signals there is a first reflection when it hits the pipe outer wall and a second reflection after passing through the pipe wall on the pipe inner wall. In the two diagrams it is the big swings. The second large deflection is smaller than the first large deflection because the signal was attenuated when it passed through the pipe wall. In addition, the two diagrams include two much smaller swings that are due to defects are. The much smaller deflection in diagram S1 indicates an error in the middle area of the pipe wall, while the significantly smaller deflection in diagram S2 indicates an error on the inner pipe wall. The signal reflected on the inner wall of the pipe and the error signal are reproduced individually only for the sake of better illustration.
- the electronic evaluation unit shown in FIG. 3 is preferably used to link the signals S1, S2 and further signals S3, S4.
- the reflected signals S1, S2, S3, S4 supplied by the measuring heads 1, 2, 3, 4 are fed to this evaluation unit at the same time.
- the signals are linked here at different levels.
- stage Ml ⁇ there is a difference between the signals S1, S2. If an error signal is contained in the signal S1 or S2, the output signal is stage Ml ⁇ ⁇ O.
- a monitoring circuit T1 designed, for example, as a trigger, a corresponding alarm signal is emitted in the event of an error.
- signals S1, S2 are added.
- the summed signal of the signals S1, S2 is supplied to both a stage M ⁇ for difference formation and a stage M ⁇ for addition in a subordinate logic level.
- the signals S3, S4 are linked to one another in a corresponding manner. So there is a level M2 ⁇ Difference formation of the signals S3, S4 and in the stage M2 ⁇ a sum formation of the signals S3, S4.
- the output signal of stage M2 ⁇ is applied to a monitoring circuit T2 designed as a trigger, which gives an alarm signal in the case of an output signal of stage M2 ⁇ ⁇ O.
- stage M2 ⁇ for sum formation is supplied on the one hand to the already mentioned stage M ⁇ for subtraction and on the other hand to stage M ⁇ for sum formation with the output signal of stage Ml ⁇ taken at the two signals S1, S2.
- stage M ⁇ in the subordinate link level mentioned is assigned a monitoring circuit T3 designed as a trigger, which in
- the level M ⁇ for forming the sum in the subordinate link level provides a signal at further levels for forming the difference and for forming the sum in the next link level.
- the evaluation unit can comprise several linking levels in order to determine the number of links to keep the operator relevant signals as small as possible.
- the output signal of stage M® for summation in the last link level is a measure of the wall thickness.
