Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to pipeline welding tooling, and in particular relates to a butt joint device used for pipeline welding. Background Art
[0002] When using pipelines, multiple pipes need to be welded according to the installation requirements. When connecting and welding the pipes together, the quality of the pipe joint is crucial. When welding pipes with smaller diameters, the conventional method is basically to align the joint pipes on a temporary operating platform on the ground and then weld them. Large-diameter pipes need to be assembled and fixed before welding. Due to the lack of suitable fixing devices on the operating platform, it is difficult to align the pipe ends during positioning welding. The pipe ends are easily staggered with each other, resulting in misalignment defects, which reduces the effective thickness of the weld and causes welding stress concentration, making the welding strength of the pipeline unable to meet the process requirements. If the pipeline is not forcibly fixed during welding, tensile stress often occurs when spot welding the first weld point, causing the pipeline to bend and affecting the subsequent welding process.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, the supporting wheel 305 and the pressing wheel 306 are both provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves 3051 to prevent the inner clamp 3 and the outer clamp 505 from slipping when docking the pipe 7 .

[0044] When butt welding pipes, move the two pipes 7 to the lower part of the bracket 1, and align the butt joint of the two pipes 7 with the position of the welding gun. Then use the hydraulic cylinder 205 to control the butt joint seat 2 to descend, so that the inner clamp 3 and the outer clamp 505 are clamped into the pipe 7. Then rotate the knob 308 to make the supporting wheel 305 and the pressure wheel 306 completely clamp the pipe 7. At this time, the inner pull rod 202 and the outer pull rod 504 are in an eight-shaped structure. Then control the butt joint seat 2 to rise and lift the pipes 7 on both sides. At this time, since the inner pull rod 202 and the outer pull rod 504 are in an eight-shaped structure, The inner pull rod 202 and the outer pull rod 504 are arranged in an eight-shaped pattern, pushing the pipes 7 on both sides toward the middle, so that the welding points of the pipes 7 on both sides are closely close. The degree of closeness can be adjusted by rotating the second adjusting screw 502 and the double-headed stud 5042 to adjust the angle of the outer pull rods 504 on both sides; at the same time, the rotation component 6 can be used to adjust the support arm 5 and the deflection angle of the outer pull rod 504 and the mounting plate 201 according to the offset of the two pipes 7 when docking, so that the pipes 7 on both sides are accurately docked, thereby ensuring the quality of the butt welding of the pipes 7.
