Patent ID: 7472598

Claim:
An ultrasonic inspection apparatus for non-destructive inspection of a test body, the apparatus comprising: a probe; a transmitter operably connected to the probe, the transmitter generates transmitter pulses and delivers the transmitter pulses to the probe; a receiver operably connected to the probe, the receiver receives echo signals; and a monitor with a display operably connected to the receiver for representing the echo signals received, in the form of an A-scan, wherein the probe delivers ultrasonic pulses and insonifies them at a certain angle (α) into a test body, the pulses penetrating the test body where the test pulses are at least once reflected from a rear wall of the test body forming, as a result thereof, at least one first leg that extends from an entrance surface to the rear wall and a second leg that extends from the rear wall to the entrance surface, wherein the echo signals received are represented on the display within the A-scan so as to show from which leg the echo signals originate.
