Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of spherical tank installation engineering, in particular to a spherical tank pre-weld part layout device and a construction method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As we all know, the spherical tank is a large-capacity, pressure-bearing and efficient storage container, which is widely used in the chemical industry for its superior performance. However, as a special equipment, the spherical tank has an irregular structure and special construction procedures, which poses great risks during the construction process. Especially in the process of laying out and positioning the upper and lower plate pre-weld pads on the outer surface of the spherical shell, the construction workers need to frequently move back and forth on the surface of the spherical shell. At this time, most of the arc-shaped fixtures on the surface of the spherical shell have been dismantled, and there are few places for the construction workers to hook their safety belts. This poses a huge safety hazard. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new construction method to solve the safety problems in the process of laying out the spherical tank.

[0003] At present, in the installation project of spherical tanks, the layout of prefabricated weldments of spherical tanks mainly adopts traditional manual layout. The main operation steps are to place the square ruler at the manhole to find the center of the manhole, and the construction workers pinch the layout line or pull the tape measure to perform the layout operation. The layout accuracy deviation is too large, the layout range is small, and the operation is inconvenient. Especially when laying out the lower plate of the spherical tank, the layout is more difficult, which seriously affects the progress of the project and increases the construction cost. Summary of the invention

[0023] (III) Beneficial effects

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a spherical tank pre-weld part layout device and a construction method thereof, which have the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The mechanical structure is combined with a laser rangefinder and a digital display compass to lay out and locate the position of the prefabricated weldment pad of the spherical tank, which overcomes the traditional single manual circle-swinging method of spherical tank layout; the digital display compass on the azimuth plate is used to determine the direction, and the fixed laser rangefinder is fine-tuned to determine the position, so as to achieve the precise positioning of the prefabricated weldment pad around the manhole of the spherical tank. This construction method that completely relies on the machine for layout and positioning is conducive to improving the efficiency and accuracy of the layout of the prefabricated weldment pad of the spherical tank, and can speed up the construction progress;

The operating position of the construction personnel is fixed, and there is no need for frequent movement, which effectively reduces the risk factor of the construction personnel. The materials used in the main structure are mostly higher than the strength coefficient, which improves the stability of the invention and reduces the impact of the environment on the accuracy of this product. The symmetrical spring structure in the groove of the compass plate makes it easy to disassemble the digital display compass. In the past, the construction was mainly to position the template by manual circle swinging. The upper and lower plates of each 1000m3 spherical tank required three workers for two days, and all the benchmarks were located by manual measurement, so the error was large. This product redefines the construction procedure for the layout of spherical tank pre-welds, and the cost price is much lower than a riveter day, saving construction costs, labor costs, schedule costs, quality costs and other budget costs;

[0027] 3. It has simple structure, practical value, high construction efficiency and good stability.

[0035] Example:

[0036] A spherical tank pre-weld component layout construction method comprises the following steps:

[0037] S1. Fixing the sampler: fix the sampler at the manhole of the spherical tank through the base positioning slider;

[0038] S2. Sampler adjustment: adjust the sampler height and level through the height adjustment mechanism;

[0039] S3, data measurement: measure the required data H1 and H4;

[0040] S4. Data calculation: Calculate according to the layout radius and layout formula, and adjust the angle of the laser rangefinder on the layout device to make the data displayed on the rangefinder consistent with the calculation structure; when the volume of the spherical tank is >1000m3 and the outer diameter of the manhole flange is not greater than 1000mm, it can be approximately considered that H2≈H4, and this procedure can be skipped; when the volume of the spherical tank is ≤1000m3, this procedure cannot be ignored. The vertical distance from the plane on the manhole flange to the outer surface of the spherical shell is H4, the radius of the outer surface of the spherical shell is R, and the outer diameter of the upper plate flange is R1, so H2 can be calculated:

[0041]

[0042] H3=R-H5…………………………………………②

[0043] H2=H4-H3…………………………………………③

[0044] B is the distance from the rotation center of the laser rangefinder tray to the center axis of the sampler, X is the distance of the reading on the laser rangefinder instrument screen, and L1 is the distance from the tail of the laser rangefinder to the rotation axis of the laser rangefinder. X can be calculated as:

[0045] H=H1+H2…………………………………………④

[0046] C=AB…………………………………………⑤

[0047]

[0048] H33=R-H55…………………………………………⑦

[0049]

[0050] X=L1+L2…………………………………………⑨

[0051] According to the above formula, it can be deduced that:

[0052]

[0053] S5. Determine the lofting radius: After finding the specific value of X, slowly rotate the laser rangefinder tray until the reading on the laser rangefinder is equal to the obtained X, then stop rotating and fix the rangefinder tray so that it does not rotate anymore. A laser spot will be observed on the spherical shell, and the distance between the laser spot and the vertical center axis of the spherical tank is the lofting diameter A;

[0054] S6. Stakeout positioning: Place the digital compass in the fixed slot of the azimuth disk, adjust the direction of the azimuth disk, read the data on the digital compass screen until it is consistent with the data on the drawing. After the azimuth adjustment is completed, the position of the red dot on the laser rangefinder is the stakeout position.
