PLATFORM FOR INTRATUBAL FLAW DETECTOR ON MAGNETIC WHEELS Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC F17D5/06 F16L55/26 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to pipeline transport and can be used for intratubal diagnostics in construction and overhaul maintenance of objects having a pipe manifold. An object of the present invention is to provide a small platform for intratubal flaw detector on magnetic wheels, allowing unlimited maneuvering in a complex piping with Dn≥200 mm and to overcome vertical obstacles of piping without the equipping of the platform with the mechanism of turning off the magnetic field of the wheels. Platform for an intratubal flaw detector on magnetic wheels comprises magnetic motor-wheel modules and additionally equipped with magnetic wheels with non-magnetic inserts placed along the wheels, which provide variable magnetization force of the platform wheels for the intratubal defectoscope to the surveyed pipeline surface, which allows it to overcome vertical obstacles in the form of internal angles.

EFFECT: proposed platform is optimal for the construction on its basis of small-sized intratubal detectors, and also other technological devices used in various branches of the national economy.
