EDDY CURRENT INSPECTION PROBE |
摘要 |
A probe for transporting a nondestructive inspection sensor through a tube, that employs wheels to reduce friction. The radial travel of the wheels are mechanically linked through a cam and axially reciprocal plunger arrangement that centers the probe at tube diameter transitions. Internal wire bending is minimized and a dynamic seal is provided to facilitate an insertion force at the probe and reduce or eliminate compressive load buckling of the flexible cable carried by the probe. Like the wheel arrangement, radial travel of the seal segments are mechanically linked to provide probe centering. |
