Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of heat shrinking equipment, and in particular relates to a heat shrinking equipment for automatic identification of product numbers. Background Art

[0002] The heat shrink sleeve is a heat shrink anti-corrosion material designed for the corrosion protection of buried and overhead steel pipeline welds and the insulation patching of insulation pipelines. It can also be used for sealing and corrosion protection of pipeline flange connection parts. It is composed of a radiation cross-linked polyolefin substrate and a special sealing hot melt adhesive. The special sealing hot melt adhesive can form a good bond with the polyolefin substrate, the steel pipe surface and the solid epoxy coating. When the heat shrink sleeve is heated and installed, the substrate shrinks radially while the internal composite adhesive layer melts and tightly wraps around the patching. Together with the substrate, it forms a firm anti-corrosion body outside the pipeline, which has excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance, impact resistance, and good resistance to ultraviolet rays and light aging.

[0003] At present, the connection between the heat shrink sleeve and the pipe is completed in the heat shrink equipment. Due to the different thickness specifications of the heat shrink sleeve, the temperature of the heating device needs to be adjusted. In addition, when the heat shrink sleeve is installed in the heat shrink equipment, the product number on the heat shrink sleeve may not be directly aligned with the scanning device, resulting in failure of product number recognition. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem that the temperature of the heating device needs to be adjusted in order to solve the problem that the thickness specifications of the heat shrink sleeve are different. In addition, when the heat shrink sleeve is installed in the heat shrink equipment, the product number on the heat shrink sleeve is not necessarily directly aligned with the code scanning device, resulting in the heat shrink equipment being unable to automatically adjust the heating temperature and the product number being unable to be automatically identified. A heat shrink equipment with automatic product number identification is proposed.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: a heat shrink device with automatic identification of product numbers, which includes a workbench, a pipe support mechanism, a sleeve support, a wall thickness probe mechanism, a heating lamp and a code scanner, wherein the pipe support mechanism, the sleeve support, the wall thickness probe mechanism, the heating lamp and the code scanner are all installed on the workbench, the code scanner and the wall thickness probe mechanism are respectively located on opposite sides of the sleeve support, the heating lamp is located above the sleeve support, the wall thickness probe mechanism is electrically connected to the heating lamp, and the pipe support mechanism is electrically connected to the code scanner.

[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0007] The pipeline support mechanism includes an active support, a driven support and a driving motor. The active support and the driven support are both hinged on the workbench, and the active support and the driven support are respectively located on opposite sides of the casing support. The driving motor is installed on the workbench and connected to the active support.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] One end of the probe body is a flat head, which is aligned with the sleeve support, and the other end of the probe body is a cylinder, which slides in the blind hole of the fixing sleeve.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The distance meter is connected to the heating lamp tube via a light source controller.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0018] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] 1. In the present invention, the pipe support mechanism provides support for the pipe body, and the sleeve support member provides support for the heat shrink sleeve.
