Laser-based maintenance apparatus for inspecting flaws based on a generated surface wave
First Claim
1. A surface inspecting method comprising the steps of:
- irradiating a laser light to a test object to be inspected so as to generate an ultrasonic wave;
irradiating a second laser light at a position apart by a known distance from a position where the laser light is irradiated and receiving a reflection light thereof; and
correcting a generation surface wave of a received ultrasonic wave by using an ultrasonic wave other than the generation surface wave to thereby detect a flaw of the test object,wherein a characterization of the generation surface wave is divided or integrated by the same characterization of the ultrasonic wave other than the generation surface wave included in an output signal to obtain a performance index value and obtain a depth of the flaw by applying the performance index value to a calibration curve in which a corresponding relation between the performance index value and the depth of the flaw is obtained preliminarily.

Abstract
A surface inspecting method including irradiating a laser light to a test object to generate an ultrasonic wave, irradiating a second laser light at a position apart by a known distance from a position where the laser light is irradiated and receiving a reflection light thereof, and correcting a generation surface wave of a received ultrasonic wave by using an ultrasonic wave other than the generation surface wave to thereby detect a flaw of the test object. A characterization of the generation surface wave is divided or integrated by the same characterization of the ultrasonic wave other than the generation surface wave included in an output signal to obtain a performance index value and obtain a depth of the flaw by applying the performance index value to a calibration curve in which a corresponding relation between the performance index value and the depth of the flaw is obtained preliminarily.

6. A surface inspecting device comprising:
-
an ultrasonic generating unit for irradiating a laser light to a test object to be inspected so as to generate an ultrasonic wave; an ultrasonic receiving unit for irradiating a second laser light to a position apart by a known distance from a position where the laser light from the ultrasonic generating device is irradiated and receiving an ultrasonic wave by receiving a reflection light thereof; and a processing unit that inputs and records the output signal from the ultrasonic receiving device so as to detect a flaw of the test object, wherein the processing unit corrects a generation surface wave of the output signal with an ultrasonic wave other than a surface wave, and wherein the processing unit divides or integrates a characterization of the generation surface wave by the same characterization of the ultrasonic wave other than the surface wave included in an output signal to obtain a performance index value and obtain a depth of the flaw by applying the performance index value to a calibration curve in which a corresponding relation between the performance index value and the depth of the flaw is obtained preliminarily.
