Abstract

An electromagnetic ultrasonic double wave transducer, comprising a shell ( 1 ), and a permanent magnet assembly, a coil ( 4 ), a shielding layer ( 5 ), and a wire ( 6 ) which are provided in the shell ( 1 ). The permanent magnet assembly comprises a first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and a second permanent magnet ( 3 ) sleeved on the first permanent magnet ( 2 ). The magnetizing directions of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) are perpendicular to the bottom of the shell ( 1 ), and the magnetic field directions of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) are opposite. A non-conducting non-magnetic bushing material ( 9 ) is provided between the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ), and upper end faces of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) realize magnetic circuit closing by means of a magnetic circuit closing element ( 8 ). The coil ( 4 ) is fixed on the bottom of the shell ( 1 ) and is located below the first permanent magnet ( 2 ). The shielding layer ( 5 ) is provided between the lower end of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the coil ( 4 ) and below the second permanent magnet ( 3 ). One end of the wire ( 6 ) is connected to the coil ( 4 ), and the other end is connected to the power supply and signal plug ( 7 ). The electromagnetic ultrasonic double-wave transducer can simultaneously stimulate longitudinal wave and transverse wave on the surface of the part to be inspected, and the inspection accuracy is improved.

Claims (8)

1. An electromagnetic ultrasonic double wave transducer, comprising a shell ( 1 ), and a permanent magnet assembly, a coil ( 4 ), a shielding layer ( 5 ), and a wire ( 6 ) which are provided in the shell ( 1 ); said permanent magnet assembly comprises a first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and a second permanent magnet ( 3 ) sleeved on the first permanent magnet ( 2 ), the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) having a circular shape; the magnetizing directions of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) are perpendicular to a bottom of the shell ( 1 ), and magnetic field directions of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) are opposite; a non-conducting non-magnetic bushing material ( 9 ) is only disposed in between the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ), and upper end faces of the first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and the second permanent magnet ( 3 ) realize magnetic circuit closing by means of a magnetic circuit closing element ( 8 ); said coil ( 4 ) is fixed on the bottom of said shell ( 1 ) and is located below said first permanent magnet ( 2 ); said shielding layer ( 5 ) is provided between the lower end of said first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and said coil ( 4 ) and below said second permanent magnet ( 3 ); one end of said wire ( 6 ) is connected to said coil ( 4 ), and the other end is connected to a power supply and signal plug ( 7 ),

wherein the electromagnetic ultrasonic double wave transducer is adapted for simultaneously exciting vertical downward-transmitted ultrasonic transverse waves and ultrasonic longitudinal waves on a surface of a conductive or magnetic testing subject.

2. The electromagnetic ultrasonic double-wave transducer of claim 1 wherein said first permanent magnet ( 2 ) is cylindrical while said second permanent magnet ( 3 ) is annular.

3. The electromagnetic ultrasonic double-wave transducer of claim 2 wherein an inner diameter of said second permanent magnet ( 3 ) is 1-15 mm larger than an outer diameter of said first permanent magnet ( 2 ).

4. The electromagnetic ultrasonic double-wave transducer of claim 2 wherein lower end faces of said first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and said second permanent magnet ( 3 ) have a height difference of less than 3 mm.

5. The electromagnetic ultrasonic double-wave transducer of claim 2 wherein said coil ( 4 ) is spiral, and the outer diameter thereof is larger than or equal to an outer diameter of said first permanent magnet ( 2 ) and smaller than the inner diameter of said second permanent magnet ( 3 ).

6. The electromagnetic ultrasonic double-wave transducer of claim 1 wherein a non-conductive material ( 10 ) is filled between said coil ( 4 ) and said shielding layer ( 5 ), and a non-conducting non-magnetic material ( 11 ) is filled between said permanent magnet assembly and said shell ( 1 ).
