Patent ID: 10564133

Abstract:
Method, system, and device for ultrasonic signal emission and reception of reflected ultrasonic signal enabling non-destructive analysis of solid material such as in roads, bridges, and other constructions. The device being formed as a wheel (1) where the wheel (1) comprises an array of transducers (20) arranged on a base (3) attached to an axis (2) and a tire section (10) providing a sealed enclosure (7) around the array of transducers (20) where the tire section comprises a plurality of circular protruding sections (12) comprising a tire tread section (11, 22, 24, 25), and a coupling fluid (26) in the sealed enclosure (7) providing an acoustic transparency between the array of transducers and contact points (27) for the tire tread section (11, 24) towards a test material (15).
