Abstract
1,081,435. Ultrasonic inspection devices. UNITED STATES STEEL CORPORATION. Oct. 27, 1964 [Nov. 7, 1963], No. 43716/64. Heading H4D. In an arrangement for ultrasonically testing metal wheels for flaws the wheel is supported at its rim by a pair of rollers, and two adjustably mounted transducers are positioned such that one transmits ultrasonic waves radially through the tread surface of the wheel while the other transmits waves through a lateral face of the rim. Two rollers 12, one of which is rotated by a motor, are journalled in a water-tank 10 and support the wheel 11. Two guide rollers 23 bear against the wheel tread and provide vertical positioning of a sprung plate 14 which carries transducers 32, the transducers being secured respectively to a horizontal section 15 and vertical section 16 of the plate 14 by gimbal-type adjustable mountings (detailed in Fig. 3, not shown) each comprising members 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31. The arrangement is intended to detect flaws, such as discontinuities, regardless of their orientation in the wheel.
