Abstract:
The wire rope flaw detector includes: buffer members provided on both sides of the probe in an axial direction of the wire rope and between a connecting member and the probe. The connecting member is configured to connect a first and a second position regulation mechanism with each other, and is configured to guide the wire rope. The buffer members are made of a material satisfying conditions that, during running of the wire rope, a vibration frequency of the buffer members becomes lower than the vibration frequency of vibration generated by the first and the second position regulation mechanism, and have an inherent vibration frequency larger than the vibration frequency of the vibration having a largest amplitude among vibration components of the wire rope. The adjustment jig is used at an initial adjustment so that a guide groove of the probe is supported by the position regulation mechanisms without contact.

Claim (Index 1):
A wire rope flaw detector, comprising:\n a probe including: a magnetizer configured to form a main magnetic flux so as to embrace a predetermined segment in an axial direction of a wire rope; and a detection coil, which is disposed within the predetermined segment so as to be magnetically insulated from the magnetizer, and is configured to detect leakage of the magnetic flux generated from the damaged portion of the wire rope; a first position regulating mechanism and a second position regulating mechanism disposed on both sides of the probe in the axial direction of the wire rope of the magnetizer, which are configured to regulate a position of the probe in association with a running of the wire rope; a connecting member configured to connect between the first position regulating mechanism and the second position regulating mechanism; and a buffer member provided between the connecting member and the probe, the connecting member and the probe being connected via the buffer member, wherein the buffer member is made of a material satisfying a condition that, during running of the wire rope, a vibration frequency of vibration generated by the probe becomes lower than the vibration frequency of vibration generated by each of the first position regulation mechanism and the second position regulation mechanism.
