In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned self-sensing electromagnetic ultrasonic sensor is connected with an electromagnetic ultrasonic detector and a magnetic field measuring device, so as to realize the self-sensing electromagnetic ultrasonic detection process. Fig. 2 is a structural diagram of an electromagnetic ultrasonic testing device for self-sensing working points provided by the preferred embodiment.

Wherein the electromagnetic ultrasonic detector comprises computer 18, signal generator 19, power amplifier 20, signal preprocessor 21, A/D converter 22; Wherein

Computer 18, one end is connected to Hall element 13 interface, and the other end is respectively connected to signal generator 19 and A/D converter 22, is used for controlling signal generator 19 to generate sinusoidal pulse current signal;

A signal generator 19 is used to generate a sinusoidal pulse current signal and send it to a power amplifier 20;

The power amplifier 20 is connected to the excitation coil 10 through the excitation connector 16, and is used for inputting the amplified sinusoidal pulse current signal into the excitation coil 10;

The signal preprocessor 21 is connected to the receiving coil 11 through the receiving connector 17, and is used to receive the electrical signal generated by the receiving coil 11 for filtering and amplification, and send it to the A/D converter 22;

The A/D converter 22 is used to receive the electrical signal and convert it into a digital signal, and send it to the computer 18 to obtain the final detection signal.

When the device shown in Figure 2 was working, at first the computer 18 controlled the signal generator 19 to produce a sinusoidal pulse current signal, and after the signal was amplified by the power amplifier 20, it was input to the excitation coil 10; the annular magnet 9 in the sensor produced a static magnetic field, and the excitation coil 10 produced alternating magnetic field. Under the action of static magnetic field and alternating magnetic field, based on the magnetostrictive effect, the ultrasonic guided wave is excited and generated in the inspected component. When the ultrasonic guided wave passes through the receiving coil 11, based on the magnetostrictive inverse effect, the induced voltage change of the receiving coil 11 is caused to generate an electrical signal; the electrical signal is filtered and amplified by the signal preprocessor 21, and then input into the computer 18 through the A/D converter 22 , get the detection signal. Simultaneously, the USB interface of the computer 18 supplies power to the Hall element 13 through the Hall element connector 1, and the Hall element 13 placed on the outside of the ring magnet 9 converts the axial component of the static magnetic field at the measurement point into a voltage, which is displayed in the voltage display 23 Displays the voltage at the measurement point to characterize the magnetization state inside the inspected component.

During the specific detection process, the lift-off between the ring magnet 9 and the component to be tested is changed by adjusting the bolt 15, and the axial component of the static magnetic field at the measurement point changes, which in turn causes the voltage of the Hall element 13 to change. Wherein, the magnetic field component measured by the Hall element 13 is related to its placement angle. Under different lift-off conditions, according to the peak-to-peak value of the first non-electromagnetic pulse signal in the detection signal, the corresponding relationship between the working point of the sensor and the voltage of the Hall element 13 is established to realize the self-sensing function of the working point of the sensor.

Fig. 3 is the waveform diagram of the first non-electromagnetic pulse signal of the electromagnetic ultrasonic detection signal under different lift-off conditions. The lift-offs are 0, 1.5mm, and 3mm respectively, and the peak-to-peak value of the first non-electromagnetic pulse signal in the detection signal first increases and then decreases. When the lift-off is 1.5mm, the signal amplitude is large and the detection sensitivity is high, which can be regarded as the ideal working point of the sensor.

Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of the working point of the self-sensing electromagnetic ultrasonic sensor provided by the specific embodiment. Increase the lift-off between the permanent magnet 9 and the inspected component from 0 to 4.5mm by adjusting the bolt 15. The peak-to-peak value of the first non-electromagnetic pulse signal in the detection signal in the figure first increases and then decreases. When the lift-off is between 1mm-2mm When between, the energy conversion efficiency of the sensor is the largest and the detection sensitivity is improved. Therefore, the sensor is at an ideal operating point within this lift-off range.

Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the voltage change of the Hall element of the self-sensing electromagnetic ultrasonic sensor provided by the specific embodiment. The Hall element 13 is arranged in the middle of the permanent magnet 9, 3mm away from its surface. Change the lift-off between the ring magnet 9 and the tested component by adjusting the bolt 15, and record the voltages corresponding to the 10 lift-offs in FIG. It can be seen from Figure 5 that lift-off causes the axial component of the static magnetic field at the measurement point to change, and the voltage presents an increasing trend. When the lift-off is between 1mm-2mm, the voltage range of the Hall element is 3313mV-3360mV. In other words, during the on-site detection process, when the voltage of the Hall element is in the above range, the sensor is at the ideal working point.

Through the voltage of the Hall element, not only the internal magnetization state of the tested component can be known, but also the ideal working point of the sensor can be easily found, and the energy conversion efficiency and detection sensitivity can be improved.

Those skilled in the art can easily understand that the above descriptions are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and modifications made within the spirit and principles of the utility model Improvements and the like should all be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
