Abstract

See full text

There is provided a non-destructive inspection device having an actuating portion and at least one inspecting portion. The inspecting portion(s) are magnetically coupled to the actuating portion so that the inspecting portion(s) may be moved into limited-access areas to inspect features of a structure. The inspecting portion(s) each include at least one inspection sensor that transmits and/or receives signals that, when processed, indicate defects in the features of the structure. The inspection sensor of the inspecting portion is moveable relative to the housing of the inspecting portion to enable inspection of relatively larger areas of the structure being inspected. The inspection sensors may be moved, relative to the housing of the inspecting portion, manually and/or automatically.
