Abstract
Therefore, this application relates to the field of water conservancy engineering, and particularly to a pipeline construction device for traversing curved tunnels, including a forklift, a turntable, a connecting steel pipe, and a front guide vehicle. The forklift has two forks on its front side, and the turntable is mounted on the two forks. The connecting steel pipe is fixedly connected between the turntable and the front guide vehicle, which is used to receive the pipeline. By moving the forklift left and right, and forward and backward, the pipeline between the front guide vehicle and the turntable can be adjusted to change its forward and backward, left and right angles within the tunnel, thereby facilitating the installation at the pipeline socket. When height adjustment is required, the pipeline is lifted synchronously by the forklift's cargo box and jacks. This eliminates the need for prefabricated pipelines and gantry cranes, simplifying the operator's workflow and improving pipeline installation efficiency.
