Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of hydraulic equipment fixing technology, and more particularly to an adjustable pipe clamp device for special equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, hydraulic systems are widely used in military special equipment. Hydraulic pipelines are a crucial component of these systems, typically secured to structural surfaces using pipe clamps. The quality of these clamps directly impacts the functionality and reliability of the special equipment. However, due to the harsh operating environments of military special equipment, often involving vibration, sandstorms, and salt spray, high precision is required for hydraulic pipeline assembly. An error exceeding 1mm can lead to oil leaks during use, affecting equipment performance. Military special equipment is typically large in size, and its operational environment dictates the complexity of its structure, inevitably resulting in a diverse range of pipe clamps. This makes controlling the tolerances of the assembly surfaces prohibitively expensive. Using self-adjusting pipe clamps for precision compensation could significantly reduce manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the current pipe clamp structures suffer from limited operating space, difficulty in adjusting pipeline positions, and poor workability, increasing the difficulty of positioning the clamps during installation. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application provides an adjustable pipe clamp device for special equipment to address the problems that the complexity of the structure determined by the usage environment inevitably leads to a variety of pipe clamp types, resulting in excessively high costs for controlling the tolerance accuracy of the assembly surface, and increasing the difficulty of positioning the pipe clamp during installation and making it difficult to adjust the pipeline position.

[0004] This application provides an adjustable pipe clamp device for special equipment, including a pipe clamp assembly and a position adjustment assembly. The pipe clamp assembly is movably disposed on the position adjustment assembly, and the pipe clamp assembly has a fixed cavity with an adjustable size.

[0005] The pipe clamp assembly includes a pipe clamp seat unit and a pipe clamp cover unit. The pipe clamp cover unit is disposed on the pipe clamp seat unit to form the fixed cavity with an adjustable size. The distance between the pipe clamp cover unit and the pipe clamp seat unit is adjusted so that the fixed cavity can fix hydraulic pipelines of different sizes.

[0006] The pipe clamp unit is movably mounted on the position adjustment assembly to move the hydraulic pipeline fixed in the fixed cavity to the target position.

[0007] Optionally, the pipe clamp cover unit includes a pipe clamp cover and a first adjustment module. The pipe clamp cover has a first fixing hole, and the first adjustment module is disposed in the first fixing hole and passes through the pipe clamp seat unit. When the first adjustment module begins to move away from the position adjustment component, the distance between the pipe clamp cover unit and the pipe clamp seat unit is increased to make the fixing cavity larger. When the first adjustment module begins to move closer to the position adjustment component, the distance between the pipe clamp cover unit and the pipe clamp seat unit is decreased to make the fixing cavity smaller.

[0008] Optionally, the first adjustment module includes a first bolt, a first spring washer, and a first flat washer. The first flat washer and the first spring washer are sequentially stacked on the fixing hole, and the bolt passes through the first flat washer, the first spring washer, and the first fixing hole to the outer wall of the pipe clamp unit.

[0009] Optionally, the pipe clamp cap unit further includes a second adjustment module, the structure of which is the same as that of the first adjustment module.

[0010] Optionally, the pipe clamp unit includes a pipe clamp seat and a first nut. The pipe clamp seat is provided with a first screw hole. The first nut is close to the position adjustment component and corresponds to the first screw hole. The first adjustment module passes through the first fixing hole and is screwed to the first screw hole and the first nut.

[0011] Optionally, the pipe clamp unit further includes a first column, the first column having a second fixing hole, the first column being movably mounted on the position adjustment assembly, and the first adjustment module passing through the first fixing hole and being screwed to the first screw hole, the first nut, and the second fixing hole.

[0012] Optionally, the pipe clamp unit further includes a second nut and a second column. The second column is movably mounted on the position adjustment assembly. The second column and the first column have the same structure. The second adjustment module passes through the pipe clamp cover and is screwed to the pipe clamp, the second nut, and the second column.

[0013] Optionally, the position adjustment component includes a slide rail and a slider, the slider being disposed on the slide rail, and the first column being disposed on the slider.

[0014] Optionally, the pipe clamp cap unit is disposed on the pipe clamp seat unit to form an adjustable fixed cavity, which can be a circular cavity, a rectangular cavity, or a polygonal cavity.

[0015] Optionally, the pipe clamp assembly is symmetrical about its center toward the position adjustment assembly.

[0016] This application describes a pipe clamp assembly comprising a pipe clamp seat unit and a pipe clamp cap unit. The pipe clamp cap unit is disposed on the pipe clamp seat unit to form an adjustable-sized fixing cavity. The distance between the pipe clamp cap unit and the pipe clamp seat unit can be adjusted to allow the fixing cavity to fix hydraulic lines of different sizes, thereby reducing the complexity of the overall structure. Furthermore, by adjusting the size of the fixing cavity, the cost of controlling the tolerance accuracy of the fixing cavity on the assembly surface is reduced. The positioning difficulty of the pipe clamp seat unit and the pipe clamp cap unit during installation is also reduced. The pipe clamp seat unit is movably disposed on the position adjustment assembly to move the hydraulic line fixed in the fixing cavity to the target position, thereby making it easier to adjust the position of the pipeline.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides an adjustable pipe clamp device for special equipment, including a pipe clamp assembly 1 and a position adjustment assembly 2. The pipe clamp assembly 1 is movably disposed on the position adjustment assembly 2, and the pipe clamp assembly 1 has a fixed cavity 10 with an adjustable size. The pipe clamp assembly 1 includes a pipe clamp seat unit 12 and a pipe clamp cover unit 11. The pipe clamp cover unit 11 is disposed on the pipe clamp seat unit 12 to form the fixed cavity 10 with an adjustable size, and the pipe clamp cover unit 11 is adjusted relative to the pipe clamp seat unit 12. The distance between the elements 12 is adjusted so that the fixed cavity 10 can fix hydraulic lines of different sizes, thereby reducing the complexity of the entire structure. Furthermore, by adjusting the size of the fixed cavity 10, the cost of controlling the tolerance accuracy of the fixed cavity 10 on the assembly surface is reduced. The positioning difficulty of the pipe clamp seat unit 12 and the pipe clamp cover unit 11 during installation is reduced. The pipe clamp seat unit 12 is movably disposed on the position adjustment component 2 to move the hydraulic line fixed by the fixed cavity 10 to the target position, thereby making it easier to adjust the position of the pipeline.

[0028] In one embodiment, the pipe clamp cap unit 11 includes a pipe clamp cap 112 and a first adjustment module 111. The pipe clamp cap 112 has a first fixing hole 113. The first adjustment module 111 is disposed in the first fixing hole 113 and passes through the pipe clamp seat unit 12. When the first adjustment module 111 begins to move away from the position adjustment component 2, the distance between the pipe clamp cap unit 11 and the pipe clamp seat unit 12 is increased, thereby enlarging the fixing cavity 10. When the first adjustment module 111 begins to move closer to the position adjustment component 2, the distance between the pipe clamp cap unit 11 and the pipe clamp seat unit 12 is decreased, thereby shrinking the fixing cavity 10. By adjusting the size of the fixing cavity 10 through the first adjustment module 111, the tolerance accuracy cost of the fixing cavity 10 controlling the assembly surface is reduced. Furthermore, it can fix pipes of different sizes, has a simple structure, and reduces production costs.

[0029] In one embodiment, the first adjustment module 111 includes a first bolt 1111, a first spring washer 1112, and a first flat washer 1113. The first flat washer 1113 and the first spring washer 1112 are sequentially stacked on the fixing hole. The bolt passes through the first flat washer 1113, the first spring washer 1112, and the first fixing hole 113 to the outer wall of the pipe clamp seat unit 12. By adjusting the position of the first bolt 1111 relative to the position adjustment component 2, that is, by moving the first bolt 1111 away from or closer to the position adjustment component 2, the distance between the pipe clamp cover unit 11 and the pipe clamp seat unit 12 is increased or decreased, thereby increasing or decreasing the size of the fixing cavity 10. This adjustment method is simple, and the structure is also relatively simple, making it convenient for users to adjust at any time and reducing production costs.

[0030] In one embodiment, the pipe clamp cap unit 11 further includes a second adjustment module 114, the structure of which is the same as that of the first adjustment module 111. The simultaneous fixing of the adjustable-size fixing cavity 10 on both the pipe clamp cap unit 11 and the pipe clamp seat unit 12 by the first adjustment module 111 and the second adjustment module 114 provides greater stability.

[0031] In one embodiment, the pipe clamp unit 12 includes a pipe clamp 121 and a first nut 122. The pipe clamp 121 has a first screw hole 124. The first nut 122 is close to the position adjustment component 2 and corresponds to the first screw hole 124. The first adjustment module 111 passes through the first fixing hole 113 and is screwed to the first screw hole 124 and the first nut 122. The pipe clamp 121 and the first nut 122 make the adjustment of the first adjustment module 111 more convenient and easier.

[0032] Optionally, the pipe clamp unit 12 further includes a first column 123, which has a second fixing hole. The first column 123 is movably mounted on the position adjustment assembly 2. The first adjustment module 111 passes through the first fixing hole 113 and is screwed to the first screw hole 124, the first nut 122, and the second fixing hole. Optionally, the pipe clamp unit 12 further includes a second nut and a second column 125. The second column 125 is movably mounted on the position adjustment assembly 2. The second column 125 and the first column 123 have the same structure. The second adjustment module 114 passes through the pipe clamp cover 112 and is screwed to the pipe clamp seat 121, the second nut, and the second column 125. The height of the pipe clamp seat unit 12 and the pipe clamp cover unit 11 is changed by the column, that is, the height of the fixed cavity 10 is adjusted, thereby ensuring the position height of the fixed cavity 10. Moreover, the first column 123 and the second column 125 can be better adapted to columns of different heights and sizes at any time, making it convenient to adjust the position height of the fixed cavity 10.

[0033] In one embodiment, the position adjustment assembly 2 includes a slide rail 22 and a slider 21, the slider 21 being disposed on the slide rail 22, and the first column 123 being disposed on the slider 21. Optionally, the slider 21 is made of steel, and by placing the slider 21 on the slide rail 22, the slide rail 22 is guided and sliding friction is reduced, thereby achieving the horizontal position adjustment of the fixed cavity 10. Additionally, the column is made of stainless steel.

[0034] Optionally, the pipe clamp cap unit 11 is disposed on the pipe clamp seat unit 12 to form an adjustable-size fixing cavity 10, which can be a circular cavity, a rectangular cavity, or a polygonal cavity. By designing the fixing cavity 10 into different shapes, different types of pipes can be fixed, thus broadening the user's application range.

[0035] Optionally, the pipe clamp assembly 1 is symmetrical about its center toward the position adjustment assembly 2. The symmetrical structure of the pipe clamp assembly 1 makes it aesthetically pleasing and also helps to improve the structural stability of the pipe clamp assembly 1.
