Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0042] The first embodiment of this application provides a steel pipe cylindrical structure manufacturing apparatus 1 (hereinafter referred to as the manufacturing apparatus), wherein, as Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the steel pipe cylindrical structure 2 includes a plurality of first steel pipes 21 and an I-beam 22 connecting two adjacent first steel pipes 21. The plurality of first steel pipes 21 and the plurality of I-beams 22 are arranged in a generally circular steel pipe cylindrical structure 2. The I-beam 22 has a generally parallel outer first flange 221 and an inner second flange 222, and a web 223 that is generally perpendicular to the first flange 221 and the second flange 222. The two ends of the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 are respectively connected to the two adjacent first steel pipes 21.
[0043] like Figure 2-10 As shown, the manufacturing apparatus 1 includes a base 11 and a rotating frame 12 located on the base 11. The base 11 serves as the foundation of the entire manufacturing apparatus and has a first groove 111 with a concave surface of an arc. The rotating frame 12 is annular and located within the first groove 111. The outer surface 121 of the rotating frame 12 mates with the concave surface of the first groove 111, allowing the rotating frame 12 to be installed in and rotate relative to the first groove 111. Figure 5 As shown, the rotating frame 12 also has an inner surface 122 capable of accommodating the steel pipe cylindrical structure 2; wherein, the inner surface 122 is provided with an inwardly protruding first boss 1221 for supporting the first flange 221 of the I-beam 22; a limiting groove 1222 capable of accommodating the first steel pipe 21 is formed between two adjacent first bosses 1221; the limiting groove 1222 is a concave arc shape that matches the outer surface of the first steel pipe 21 and is used to limit the position of the first steel pipe 21.
[0044] The pedestal 11 is equipped with a drive device for driving the rotating frame 12 to rotate. In one embodiment, the drive device includes a power gear set 13 and a motor (not shown in the figure); wherein, as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the power gear set 13 includes multiple rotatable gears that respectively contact the outer surface 121 of the rotating frame 12 to drive the rotation of the rotating frame 12; the motor is used to drive the power gear set 13 to rotate, so as to further rotate the rotating frame 12. The motor can be selected as a stepper motor to precisely control the synchronous rotation of the power gear set 13.
[0045] In one implementation, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the manufacturing apparatus 1 includes multiple rotating frames 12 spaced apart on the pedestal 11; a gap band 14 is formed between adjacent rotating frames 12, wherein the axial length L1 of the gap band 14 is greater than the axial length L2 of the rotating frame 12, facilitating welding of the exposed first flange 221 within the gap band 14. When there are multiple rotating frames 12, the manufacturing apparatus 1 includes multiple power gear sets 13 corresponding one-to-one with the rotating frames 12, used to drive the rotation of each rotating frame 12 respectively. A synchronization control system can be provided to control the synchronous rotation of each power gear set 13, so that the rotation steps of each rotating frame 12 are consistent, thereby preventing the steel tube cylindrical structure 2 located in the rotating frame 12 from twisting. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The diagram shows a configuration where there are three rotating frames 12 and three power gear sets 13, with each set corresponding to the other. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The diagram illustrates a configuration where each power gear set 13 has five rotating gears. It is worth noting that in practical applications, the number of rotating frames 12, power gear sets 13, and gears can be flexibly adjusted based on the length and weight of the steel tubular structure 2. Furthermore, if multiple rotating frames 12 are spaced apart on the same base 11, only one axially arranged power gear set 13 can be mounted on the base 11 to simultaneously drive the multiple rotating frames 12 in synchronous motion.
[0046] The manufacturing apparatus 1 further includes a limiting device to prevent the steel pipe cylindrical structure from detaching. In one embodiment, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the limiting device is a magnetic attraction device 15 installed in the rotating frame 12. It can be either an electromagnet or a permanent magnet. It is arranged in a ring around the rotating frame 12 and close to the inner surface 122 of the rotating frame 12, especially close to the first boss 1221 and the limiting groove 1222. By magnetically attracting the first steel pipe 21 and the I-beam 22 of the steel pipe cylindrical structure, even if the first steel pipe 21 and the I-beam 22 are rotated to the top of the rotating frame 12 after the inner surfaces are welded, they will not fall off due to gravity. In another embodiment, as... Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the limiting device is an L-shaped structure 16, with its first end 161 hinged to the rotating frame 12, and its second end 162 extending into the first steel pipe 21 or into the gap formed by the first flange 221 and the web 223. The second end 162 hooks the first steel pipe 21 or the I-beam 22 onto the rotating frame 12 to prevent it from falling off (e.g., ...). Figure 9 (As shown by the dashed line).
[0047] Furthermore, such as Figure 2-6As shown, the manufacturing device 1 also includes a welding device 17 for welding the steel pipe cylindrical structure, mainly including welding the first steel pipe 21 to the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 of the I-beam 22.
[0048] To achieve automated welding, the fabrication apparatus 1 further includes a support frame 18 having two legs 181 and a crossbeam 182 located between the legs 181. The crossbeam 182 is longer than the first steel pipe 21 and is substantially parallel to the axial direction of the first steel pipe 21. The welding device 17 is movably mounted on the crossbeam 182, for example, by providing a slide rail between the welding device 17 and the crossbeam 182, allowing the welding device 17 to slide continuously along the axial direction of the first steel pipe 21 to form a horizontal weld.
[0049] The support frame 18 is detachable, and its legs 181 are adjustable in height, allowing for double-sided welding of the steel pipe cylindrical structure both inside and outside the rotating frame 12. The support frame 18 can be initially installed inside the rotating frame, such as... Figure 3-6 As shown, first weld the second flange 222 and the first steel pipe 21 located below the crossbeam 182; after the inner welding is completed, disassemble the support frame 18 and set it on the outer side of the top of the rotating frame, as shown. Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the first flange 221 and the first steel pipe 21 below the support frame 18 are welded together.
[0050] The manufacturing apparatus 1 also includes a pushing device (not shown in the figure) capable of axially moving the steel pipe cylindrical structure. For example, a jack that can be installed axially along the steel pipe cylindrical structure can be contacted with one end of the steel pipe cylindrical structure to axially push the steel pipe cylindrical structure to move. After the inner second flange 222 or part of the second flange 222 is welded, the first steel pipe 21 and the portion of the first flange 221 located in the gap zone 14 can be welded first. The portion blocked by the rotating frame 12 cannot be welded. Then, the steel pipe cylindrical structure can be axially pushed so that the unwelded portion is moved into the gap zone 14 for welding.
[0051] In another implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the steel pipe cylindrical structure 2 also includes second steel pipes 23, which have a smaller diameter and fewer number than the first steel pipes 21, and are spaced apart on the steel pipe cylindrical structure 2 to connect two adjacent first steel pipes 21, replacing the I-beams 22 thereon. The steel pipe cylindrical structure 2 simultaneously has I-beams 22 and second steel pipes 23; the centers of the first steel pipes, the second steel pipes, and the I-beams (webs) are located on the same circumference of the steel pipe cylindrical structure 2. The second steel pipe 23 has an extension 231 longer than the first steel pipes 21 and the I-beams 22. Based on this, the inner surface 122 of the manufacturing device 1 is also provided with an inwardly protruding second boss 1223 for supporting the second steel pipe 23, which has an arc-shaped second groove matching the outer surface of the second steel pipe 23. The limiting groove 1222 is formed between the second boss 1223 and the adjacent first boss 1221.
[0052] The second embodiment of this application provides a method for manufacturing a steel pipe cylindrical structure, which can employ the manufacturing apparatus described in any of the preceding embodiments, and includes the following steps:
[0053] Step A: As Figure 7 As shown, the first steel pipe 21 before welding is arranged in the limiting groove 1222 at the lower part of the rotating frame 12; the I-beam 22 before welding is arranged on the first boss 1221 at the lower part of the rotating frame 12, so that the outermost first flange 221 contacts the first boss 1221; at this time, the two ends of the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 of the I-beam are respectively close to the two adjacent first steel pipes.
[0054] Step B: Arrange the welding device 17 inside the rotating frame 12 to weld the second flange 222 and the first steel pipe 21 on the inner side. Install a restraining device, such as turning on the electromagnet switch or moving the second end of each L-shaped structure 16 to extend into the first steel pipe 21 and into the gap formed by the first flange 221 and the web 223, to prevent the steel pipe cylindrical structure from detaching.
[0055] Step C: Rotate the rotating frame 12, continue to arrange the first steel pipe 21 and the I-beam 22, repeat steps A and B, and complete the welding between the second flange 222 and the first steel pipe 21.
[0056] Step D: Move the welding device 17 to the outside of the rotating frame 12, rotate the rotating frame 12, and weld all the first flanges 221 and the first steel pipes 21 together.
[0057] Further, in step D, the first flange 221 and the first steel pipe 21 located in the gap zone 14 are first welded, and then the unwelded first flange 221 and the first steel pipe 21 are moved into the gap zone 14 by a pushing device to complete the welding of the first flange 221 and the first steel pipe 21.
[0058] In one embodiment, when the steel pipe cylindrical structure 2 includes a second steel pipe 23, step A further includes placing the second steel pipe 23 before welding on the second boss 1223 at the lower part of the rotating frame 12, at which time the second steel pipe 23 is close to two adjacent first steel pipes respectively; step B further includes welding the first steel pipe 21 and the second steel pipe 23 together; step C further includes continuing to place the second steel pipe 22, repeating steps A and B, and completing the welding between the first steel pipe 21 and the second steel pipe 23; step D further includes supplementary welding between the first steel pipe 21 and the second steel pipe 23 from the outside of the rotating frame 12.
[0059] The order of steps described in this embodiment is merely a descriptive order. In actual operation, it can be adjusted according to actual needs. Therefore, this descriptive order does not constitute an absolute limitation on this application.
[0060] The described embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Any modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of this application without departing from the spirit of this application should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of this application.
