摘要 |
The present invention relates to a portable device (10) for inspecting metal tube welds, comprising at least one clamp (12) formed by two jaws, each jaw comprising an arc of circle recess defining, once the clamp (12) is closed, a substantially circular housing (120) suitable for receiving a tube (16) whereof the weld must be inspected, at least two multi-element ultrasound probes movably mounted relative to the control device (10) and rotatably mounted relative to an axis (O,O') passing through the centre of the two lateral parts of the substantially circular housing (120) of a clamp (12), a means (13) configured to rotate the ultrasound probes (11) so as to travel the entire circumference of the weld (20) to be checked, an angular sensor (14) configured to deliver a signal representative of the angular position of at least one sensor (11) relative to an initial position. |
