[0045] First of all, it should be explained that the directional words such as up, down, left, right, front and back described in the present invention are only described according to the drawings for the convenience of understanding, and are not intended to limit the technical solution and the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 29 The specific embodiment of a highly reliable pipe plasma hole opening machine of the present invention is shown, comprising a housing 1 and a control device 2, a lifting device 3 and a hole opening device arranged in the housing 1. The hole opening device comprises a pan head assembly 4, a swing arm assembly 5, a slide rail assembly 6, a cutting assembly 7 and a material lifting assembly 8. The pan head assembly 4 is provided with a pan head support plate 41 connected to the lifting device 3, a first hollow rotating table 42 is installed on the pan head support plate 41, and a turntable 43 is coaxially fixed on the turntable of the first hollow rotating table 42. The swing arm assembly 5 is provided with a swing arm 51 and a bracket plate 52, the swing arm 51 is horizontally fixed on the turntable 43, the bracket plate 52 is vertically fixed on the swing arm 51, and the slide rail assembly 6 is vertically installed on the bracket plate 52. The cutting assembly 7 is provided with an adapter 71 connected to the slide rail assembly 6, a plasma cutting gun 72 is fixed in the middle of the adapter 71, a laser rangefinder 73 is provided on one side of the plasma cutting gun 72, a camera or an infrared rangefinder 74 is provided on the other side of the plasma cutting gun 72, and the vertical distances from the plasma cutting gun 72 and the laser rangefinder 73 to the axis of the first hollow rotating table 42 are equal. The lifting assembly 8 is fixedly connected to the pan / tilt support plate 41 and is used to extract the cut pipe wall.

[0047] The above structure is used to form a highly reliable pipeline plasma hole-opening machine. In practical applications, the hole-opening machine is installed on the welding pipe fitting 200 through the gate valve 100. When the hole-opening operation is performed, the hole-opening device is first moved down from the hole-opening machine to the welding pipe fitting by controlling the lifting device 3, and the lifting device 3 is stopped after the hole-opening device is moved down to the position. Then, the plasma cutting gun 72 and the laser rangefinder 73 are moved to the set initial position by controlling the first hollow rotating table 42 and the slide rail assembly 6. Then, the laser rangefinder 73 is rotated for one circle and the cutting path is scanned by controlling the first hollow rotating table 42. Then, the plasma cutting gun 72 is started, and the first hollow rotating table 42 is rotated for one circle at a set speed, and the distance from the plasma cutting gun 72 to the pipe wall is controlled according to the cutting path. After the pipe wall is cut, the first hollow rotating table 42, the slide rail assembly 6 and the plasma cutting gun 72 are stopped. Finally, the hole-opening device is moved up to the hole-opening machine by controlling the lifting device 3, and the subsequent process can be carried out, and the cut pipe wall will be extracted by the material lifting assembly 8. The present invention uses plasma cutting to perform pipe hole drilling, which greatly improves the hole drilling speed and work efficiency compared with the traditional tube knife hole drilling, and effectively reduces the overall weight and maintenance cost of the hole drilling machine. By using a laser rangefinder 73 to detect the distance from the pipe wall and establish a cutting path, and making the vertical distance from the laser rangefinder 73 to the axis of the first hollow rotating table 42 equal, by using the angle, height difference and rotation speed of the first hollow rotating table 42, it is easy to control the slide rail assembly 6 to keep the distance from the plasma cutting gun 72 to the pipe wall within the working distance range, thereby improving the convenience of control and the stability and reliability of cutting and drilling. By setting a camera or an infrared rangefinder 74, when a fault occurs during the cutting and drilling process, when the cutting is interrupted or the pipe wall is not completely cut off due to an error, the uncut position can be quickly found, and after determining the position, the plasma cutting gun 72 is positioned at the position and cut again to achieve the purpose of error correction, thereby enhancing the functionality, reliability and practicality of the hole drilling device. When a camera is used, the uncut position can be manually found and the plasma cutting gun can be positioned; when an infrared rangefinder is used, the vertical distance from the plasma cutting gun 72 to the axis of the first hollow rotating table 42 should be equal, so that the infrared rangefinder can detect the distance along the cutting path by rotating the first hollow rotating table 42. The distance detection value of the area after cutting is larger, while the distance detection value of the uncut or uncut area will be significantly smaller. Through this difference, the uncut position and area can be quickly determined. It should be noted that the scanning cutting path refers to the laser rangefinder rotating one circle and detecting and recording the pipe wall distance; the connection between the adapter 71 and the slide rail assembly 6 refers to the connection between the adapter 71 and the sliding part of the slide rail assembly 6; during the hole opening operation, the welding pipe fitting 200 is welded on the pipe 300 to be opened, and the gate valve 100 and the welding pipe fitting 200 are commonly used equipment in this field. Their structure and use method are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be repeated here.
