Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipe gallery support technology, and in particular to a pipe gallery support that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] Pipe galleries, also known as corridors for pipelines, are where many pipelines in chemical and related factories are concentrated and arranged along the outside of the equipment or factory buildings. They are usually located in the air, supported by brackets, forming a corridor-like structure. A few pipe galleries are located underground. These are used to save urban construction land and improve the safety and standards of urban engineering pipeline construction.
[0003] Currently, there are two types of pipes installed in utility tunnels: rectangular pipes and circular pipes. For the installation of rectangular pipes, please refer to the bidirectional seismic support hoisting mechanism for rectangular pipes disclosed in CN210462126U. Specifically, this device achieves rectangular installation by clamping the upper and lower supports, and the required shock-absorbing mechanism is installed on the side of the upper and lower supports. For the installation of circular pipes, please refer to the seismic connection support combination structure disclosed in CN104315255B. Specifically, this device achieves circular pipe installation by using U-shaped pipe hangers and pipe clamps.
[0004] The two installation methods mentioned above are widely used in the current market. In summary, regardless of whether it is a rectangular or round pipe, their installation can follow these steps:
[0005] First, multiple pairs of vertical supports are fixed to the top of the wall according to the pipeline route, which serves as a preliminary layout of the pipeline route;
[0006] After the pipeline route is laid out, the pipeline will be supported and lifted upwards by lifting equipment until the predetermined height is reached;
[0007] Subsequently, workers need to use ladders and other climbing equipment to reach the designated height for pipe installation and connect one horizontal support to two vertical supports to support the pipe.
[0008] Finally, the lifting equipment was removed to allow for work on the next section of the pipeline.
[0009] The above installation method has the following problems in practical applications:
[0010] First, after multiple pairs of vertical supports are installed, there will be a certain horizontal error. This means that the pipes will deviate in angle during the installation process, causing the pipes to fail to connect accurately with other pipes. Although this problem can be solved by raising the pipes with shims, the shims may be cut inaccurately.
[0011] Secondly, since the pipe is lifted to a designated height by lifting equipment and then supported, and subsequently fixed and erected by workers, the pipe is located above the workers. Therefore, if the pipe falls or slips, it could easily cause serious injury to the workers.
[0012] Third, the lifting equipment requires a long period of support work and will not be removed until the installation is completed, resulting in low construction efficiency.
[0013] Fourth, when multiple pipes are laid out between two vertical supports, bolts are usually used to fix the pipes to the crossbeams and the required supports. However, the installation or dismantling of numerous bolts and supports is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the workers are in a harsh working environment. This not only increases the workload of the workers, but also affects the pipe installation wheel and poses significant safety hazards. Summary of the Invention
[0014] This invention provides an easy-to-install pipe rack support to solve the aforementioned technical problems.
[0015] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: it includes a vertical support, a horizontal support, a connector, an adjustment mechanism, and a positioning block. Two vertical supports are provided, and the two vertical supports are symmetrically arranged on the top of the wall by bolts. The connector is located at the lower end of one of the vertical supports and is fixedly connected. The end of the horizontal support is rotatably connected to the connector, and the horizontal support is in a vertical and horizontal state under the influence of gravity before installation, forming an opening at the lower ends of the two vertical supports. The adjustment mechanism is located on the connector and at the side end of the corresponding vertical support. The inner end of the vertical support away from the connector is provided with a snap-fit component. The end of the horizontal support is provided with a snap-fit block that matches the snap-fit component, and the end is also rotatably connected to a connecting plate. The positioning block is located at the center of the horizontal support.
[0016] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment component, an adjustment rod, and an adjustment bracket. The adjustment component is mounted on the connector and located at the side end of the corresponding vertical bracket. The adjustment rod is mounted on the adjustment component, and the adjustment bracket is mounted on the adjustment rod.
[0017] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes a housing, a first gear, a second gear, a rack, and a connecting bracket. The housing is located on the side of the connector. The first gear is connected to the rotation connection point of the transverse bracket and is located inside the housing. The second gear is rotatably connected to the housing and meshes with the first gear. The rack meshes with the second gear and passes through the housing. The connecting bracket is located at the upper end of the rack and is located on one side of the corresponding vertical bracket for a sliding fit.
[0018] Furthermore, the adjusting rod is a telescopic rod, and the telescopic rod is equipped with an adjusting knob that can control the telescopic rod's extension and retraction.
[0019] Furthermore, the lower end of the adjusting bracket is provided with connecting blocks on both sides, and the two connecting blocks are respectively located on the inner end of the corresponding vertical bracket. The two connecting blocks and the corresponding vertical bracket are subsequently fixed with bolts. The lower end of the adjusting bracket is also provided with a matching bracket.
[0020] Furthermore, the outer ends of the two vertical supports are provided with holes that match the connection of the seismic bracing.
[0021] Furthermore, the positioning block includes a positioning shaft and a spring. The positioning shaft is slidably mounted at the center of the transverse support. The two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the positioning shaft and the lower end of the transverse support. The positioning shaft is provided with a knob that can control the extension and retraction of the positioning shaft.
[0022] Furthermore, it also includes two merging mechanisms and pipe clamp supports. The two merging mechanisms are symmetrically arranged inside the transverse support. Two pipe clamp supports are provided, symmetrically arranged on the transverse support and connected to the corresponding merging mechanisms. Each merging mechanism includes a first fixing block, a second fixing block, a spring damper, a hook, a fixing tube, and a push rod. The end of the spring damper is connected to the second fixing block. The transverse support has two sliding grooves. A connecting rod is rotatably connected to the outer wall of each of the two pipe clamp supports. Each merging mechanism has two hooks. The hooks are all connected to the first end of the spring damper. The lower ends of the two connecting rods pass through the corresponding sliding grooves and are connected to the two corresponding hooks in a through-pass manner. There are two fixed tubes, which are symmetrically arranged inside the sliding grooves on one side of the transverse support. The first ends of the two hooks are respectively hung at the openings of the corresponding fixed tubes. The second fixed block is connected to the fixed tubes and is located between the two fixed tubes. There are two push rods, and their ends extend through the inside of the corresponding fixed tubes to the side of the corresponding hooks. The first end of the push rod is located beside the positioning shaft and is connected to the first fixed block.
[0023] Furthermore, the positioning shaft is provided with two inclined plates, which are symmetrically arranged and face the corresponding pipe clamp brackets respectively. The transverse bracket is provided with inclined grooves for the movement of the two inclined plates. The two inclined plates can respectively abut against the corresponding first fixing block.
[0024] Furthermore, the outer walls of the two pipe clamp supports are also provided with holes that match the seismic bracing.
[0025] The above-described at least one technical solution adopted in the embodiments of the present invention can achieve the following beneficial effects:
[0026] Firstly, this invention facilitates the simultaneous or separate installation of rectangular and circular pipes, accurately ensuring the required pipe horizontal height and providing high installation quality during pipe connection installation; specifically:
[0027] In this invention, the pipe, after being continuously lifted and moved upward, will contact the adjusting bracket, causing it to move upward synchronously. Once the adjusting bracket moves upward, it will drive the adjusting rod and gears upward. The upward movement of the gears will transmit power to the second gear and the first gear. The rotation of the first gear will cause the horizontal bracket to rotate around the axis of the first gear towards the locking member. When the adjusting bracket is moved upward by the pipe until the horizontal bracket has rotated exactly 90 degrees, the locking block at the end of the horizontal bracket will lock onto the locking member, forming a connection between the horizontal bracket and the corresponding vertical bracket. At this point, the pipe is exactly in the required storage position within the two corresponding vertical brackets. Then, the lifting device lifts and supports the rectangular pipe downward so that the lower end of the pipe is exactly at the upper end of the horizontal bracket for placement. At this point, the lifting equipment used for rectangular pipes can be directly removed. The corresponding horizontal supports provide support for the pipes to be installed. Since multiple pairs of vertical supports are installed, there are also multiple pairs of horizontal supports. Therefore, the horizontal supports have sufficient support capacity to provide the necessary support, thus ensuring the safety of workers when working at higher positions. After the lifting equipment is removed, the next pipe can be directly installed and supported. This means that the time it takes for the lifting equipment to support the pipe is greatly shortened, thus reducing the probability of gravity shift and the possibility of serious injury to workers. It also improves efficiency, maximizes the use of the equipment, reduces the number of lifting equipment used, and lowers costs.
[0028] Secondly, when the height of each adjusting bracket is consistent, the lifting device lifts and supports the rectangular pipe upwards. Each adjusting bracket on the multiple pairs of vertical supports moves in the same direction, causing the corresponding horizontal supports to rotate 90 degrees. This ensures the pipe is horizontal after being placed on the corresponding horizontal support, allowing for subsequent installation by workers. This guarantees the quality of pipe installation. In other words, even if there are errors in the arrangement of the multiple pairs of vertical supports, it will not affect the quality of normal pipe installation. This ensures the quality of pipe installation while avoiding resource waste and reducing labor costs.
[0029] Thirdly, after multiple pairs of vertical supports are arranged and installed, the error is generally not too large, which may cause the pipeline to deviate by about 3 to 4 degrees during installation. After measuring and adjusting the corresponding adjustable supports to a uniform height, the corresponding horizontal support will inevitably be horizontal after rotating 90 degrees. If the installation length of the vertical support at the end of the horizontal support has an error, and is too long or too short, the locking mechanism will prevent the end of the horizontal support from colliding with the corresponding vertical support and causing obstruction, as long as the vertical support is located at the inner end of the vertical support furthest from the connector and the end of the horizontal support has a matching locking block, and the end is also rotatably connected to a connecting block. A locking device is provided on the side end of one vertical bracket of the connector, which matches the locking block on the horizontal bracket. The locking distance between the two is set to be greater than the aforementioned error, so that the horizontal bracket always rotates 90 degrees and is in a horizontal state, which will not affect the normal horizontal layout quality of the pipeline. If the other horizontal bracket has an error, the principle is the same as above. After the rectangular pipe is installed, when it is connected to another rectangular pipe, it is only necessary to ensure that the two adjacent corresponding adjusting brackets are at the same horizontal height. This will prevent the rectangular pipe from shifting in different positions during the connection process, improve the quality of circular connection installation, and also reduce the labor of workers.
[0030] Fourth, since the rectangular pipe is lifted and supported by the lifting equipment to move downwards, after the rectangular pipe is located on the corresponding horizontal support, the upper end of the rectangular pipe will separate from the adjusting support. Therefore, at this time, it is necessary to loosen the knob on the adjusting rod to adjust the adjusting rod so that the lower end of the adjusting support presses against the upper end of the rectangular pipe. The rectangular pipe is clamped and limited by the horizontal support and the adjusting support. Subsequently, the corresponding holes are fixed one by one by the staff.
[0031] Fifth, when installing a circular pipe, the installation steps are the same as those for a rectangular pipe during the process of being inside the two vertical supports. When the circular pipe is in the required position inside the two vertical supports, and the lifting device lifts and supports the circular pipe, and the horizontal support is engaged with the corresponding vertical support and is in a horizontal state, the lifting device lifts and supports the circular pipe to move downwards. The circular pipe is then positioned on the corresponding horizontal support. Afterwards, the lifting device can be removed. During the downward movement of the circular pipe through the horizontal support, the lower end of the circular pipe will press against the positioning shaft, exerting a downward thrust on the positioning shaft. The spring is in a stretched state. The downward movement of the positioning shaft will cause the two inclined plates on the positioning shaft to move downwards within the corresponding inclined grooves on the horizontal support. The movement of the two inclined plates will push downwards through their own tilt angle. The corresponding push rod moves within the corresponding fixed tube. After the positioning axis moves downward and aligns with the transverse support, the end of the push rod will push out the hook located at the opening of the corresponding fixed tube, causing the hook to disengage from the opening. At this point, without a fixed point, the hook will be driven by the tension of the corresponding spring damper to move the corresponding connecting rod towards the positioning axis within the corresponding sliding groove. Simultaneously, the two pipe clamp supports will move synchronously to form a semi-circular shape, clamping the circular pipe within the two pipe clamp supports. Adjusting the adjusting rod will press the lower end of the adjusting support onto the circular pipe, forming a circular pipe support that is fixed and matched to the circular pipe. Subsequently, the corresponding holes can be fixed one by one by the staff. The positioning block and spring provide a supporting force for the pipe extension.
[0032] Sixth, when the two spring dampers return to their initial state, after the circular pipes are installed and fixed, the connecting rods can be rotated toward the corresponding vertical supports, so that the two connecting rods and the corresponding pipe clamp supports can be connected by bolts. At this time, the two spring dampers are in a tensile state, which can play a role in supporting and damping the pipes, thus realizing the secondary use of the two spring dampers.
[0033] Seventh, since the circular pipes are installed by splicing, after the first pipe is installed, the next pipe needs to be aligned with the adjacent pipe. During the alignment process, it is essential to ensure that the axis of each pipe is the same. In the case of errors in the vertical support mentioned above, by measuring and adjusting the corresponding adjustment support to a uniform height, the corresponding horizontal support will inevitably be in a horizontal state after rotating 90 degrees. Therefore, in the pipe alignment installation, the upper end of the circular pipe has the same contact height with the adjustment support, and the corresponding horizontal support rotates at the lower end. This means that the axis of the circular pipe remains consistent during the alignment process, thus preventing the occurrence of different axes during the alignment process. This improves the quality of circular pipe alignment installation and reduces the labor required of workers.
[0034] Eighth, when installing rectangular pipes side by side, the present invention simply sets the horizontal support to the required matching length. When installing circular pipes side by side, without changing the adjustment mechanism, the invention adds the required matching components for the circular pipes, such as the matching support, the clamping mechanism, and the pipe clamp support. The installation process is similar to the above. When installing rectangular and circular pipes simultaneously, the positions of the required clamping mechanism, pipe clamp support, matching support, snap-fit, snap-fit block, and connecting block are offset and changed. The installation principle is the same as the above. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0054] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0055] This invention provides an easy-to-install pipe gallery support, including a vertical support 1, a horizontal support 2, a connector 3, an adjustment mechanism 4, and a positioning block 5. Two vertical supports 1 are provided, symmetrically arranged on the top of the wall by bolts. The connector 3 is located at the lower end of one of the vertical supports 1 and is fixedly connected. The end of the horizontal support 2 is rotatably connected to the connector 3, and before installation, the horizontal support 2 is in a vertical-horizontal state due to gravity, forming an opening at the lower ends of the two vertical supports 1. The adjustment mechanism 4 is located on the connector 3 and at the side end of the corresponding vertical support 1. A snap-fit 11 is provided on the inner end of the vertical support 1 away from the connector 3. The end of the horizontal support 2 is provided with a snap-fit block 21 that matches the snap-fit 11, and a connecting plate 22 is rotatably connected to the end. The positioning block 5 is located at the center of the horizontal support 2.
[0056] The adjustment mechanism 4 includes an adjustment component 41, an adjustment rod 42, and an adjustment bracket 43. The adjustment component 41 is mounted on the connector 3 and located at the side end of the corresponding vertical bracket 1. The adjustment rod 42 is mounted on the adjustment component 41, and the adjustment bracket 43 is mounted on the adjustment rod 42.
[0057] The adjustment assembly 41 includes a housing, a first gear 412, a second gear 413, a rack 414, and a connecting bracket 415. The housing is located on the side of the connector 3. The first gear 412 is connected to the rotation connection point of the transverse bracket 2 and is located inside the housing. The second gear 413 is rotatably connected to the housing and meshes with the first gear 412. The rack 414 meshes with the second gear 413 and passes through the housing. The connecting bracket 415 is located at the upper end of the rack 414 and is located on one side of the corresponding vertical bracket 1, with a sliding fit.
[0058] The adjusting rod 42 is a telescopic rod, and the telescopic rod is equipped with an adjusting knob that can control the telescopic rod's extension and retraction.
[0059] The lower end of the adjusting bracket 43 is provided with connecting blocks 431 on both sides, and the two connecting blocks 431 are respectively located on the inner end of the corresponding vertical bracket 1. The two connecting blocks 431 and the corresponding vertical bracket 1 can be fixed with bolts in the future. The outer ends of the two vertical brackets 1 are provided with holes that match the connection of the seismic bracket.
[0060] In the installation of rectangular pipes, this invention simultaneously installs horizontal supports 2 onto the corresponding vertical supports 1 via connectors 3 after arranging and installing multiple pairs of vertical supports 1. It also installs the corresponding adjusting mechanisms 4 and positioning blocks 5. This avoids significant safety hazards during prolonged operation of the pipes under elevated supports. Since most of the necessary supports have been laid out before the pipes are erected, when the pipes are placed between two corresponding vertical supports 1, workers can simply use climbing equipment to reach the required working height and secure the pipes one by one at the designated points, without much complicated installation. This avoids the significant safety hazards associated with workers operating beneath the pipe for extended periods, and also simplifies installation, reducing the workload for workers. After the horizontal support 2 is installed, it will be in a horizontal-vertical-downward position due to its own weight and rotational connection. At this time, the storage space for the two vertical supports 1 is open, without affecting the normal installation method. Then, the rectangular pipe is lifted and supported by a lifting device and moved upwards to be placed between the two vertical supports 1. When the lifting device lifts and supports the rectangular pipe until the upper end of the pipe contacts the lower end of the adjusting support 43 in the adjusting mechanism 4, refer to... Figure 7As shown, after the pipe is continuously lifted upwards, it will contact the adjusting bracket 43, causing it to move upwards synchronously. Once the adjusting bracket 43 moves upwards, it will drive the adjusting rod 42 and the gear upwards. The upward movement of the gear will transmit power to the second gear 413 and the first gear 412. The rotation of the first gear 412 will drive the horizontal bracket 2 to rotate around the axis of the first gear 412 towards the locking member 11. When the adjusting bracket 43 is contacted by the pipe and moves upwards to make the horizontal bracket 2 rotate exactly 90 degrees, the locking block 21 at the end of the horizontal bracket 2 will lock onto the locking member 11, so that the horizontal bracket 2 and the corresponding vertical bracket 1 form a connection. At this time, the pipe is exactly in the required storage position within the corresponding two vertical brackets 1. Then, the lifting device lifts and supports the rectangular pipe downwards, so that the lower end of the pipe is... The pipe is placed on top of the horizontal support 2. At this point, the rectangular pipe lifting equipment can be removed directly. The horizontal support 2 provides support for the pipe to be installed. Since multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 are installed, there are also multiple pairs of horizontal supports 2. Therefore, the horizontal supports 2 have sufficient support capacity to support the pipe to be installed. This provides safety for workers when they are working at a higher position. After the lifting equipment is removed, it can be used directly for the installation of the next pipe. This means that the time for the lifting equipment to support the pipe is greatly shortened, thus reducing the probability of gravity shift and the possibility of serious injury to workers. It also improves efficiency, maximizes the use of the equipment, reduces the number of lifting equipment used, and reduces costs.
[0061] Each set of vertical supports 1 is installed first, and the installation method is to fix them by drilling holes in the top of the wall. Assuming the required pipe length is 10 meters, after arranging multiple pairs of vertical supports 1, when installing a pipe of sufficient length (10 meters), it is impossible for the multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 to be installed in a nearly perfectly horizontal state. Even after the multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 are fixed, if a large error is found after measurement, it is impossible for the workers to remove and reinstall the two vertical supports 1 with discrepancies, because not only is the workload large, but the placement of the two vertical supports 1 is to define the pipe track. The placement positions of the two vertical supports 1 in each set are pre-designed and fixed by drilling. Therefore, after the horizontal supports 2 are installed, there will be angular offset errors, which will affect the uniformity of the pipe's horizontal height and thus directly affect the overall quality of the pipe installation. In the process of rectangular pipe installation, multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 have already been installed... After the arrangement and installation are completed, there will be some errors. First, the height of each adjusting bracket 43 on the multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 is measured using a horizontal measuring device. If the heights are not uniform after measurement, the height of the adjusting rod 42 corresponding to each adjusting bracket 43 can be adjusted. The adjustment knob can be loosened to make the adjustment, and then locked after adjustment. This ensures that the height of each adjusting bracket 43 is consistent. When the lifting equipment lifts and supports the rectangular pipe upward, each adjusting bracket 43 on the multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 moves in the same way, and drives the corresponding horizontal support 2 to rotate 90 degrees. This ensures that the pipe is in a horizontal state after being placed on the corresponding horizontal support 2, so that it can be laid by subsequent workers. This ensures the installation quality of the pipe. It also means that if there are errors after the multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 are arranged, it will not affect the quality of normal pipe laying. This ensures the quality of pipe laying, avoids waste of resources, and reduces the labor of workers.
[0062] After multiple pairs of vertical supports 1 are arranged, the error is generally not too large, which may cause the pipeline to deviate by about 3 to 4 degrees during installation. After measuring and adjusting the corresponding adjusting supports 43 to a uniform height, the corresponding horizontal support 2 will inevitably be horizontal after rotating 90 degrees. If the installation length of the vertical support 1 at the end of the horizontal support 2 has an error, and is too long or too short, the snap-fit mechanism will prevent the end of the horizontal support 2 from colliding with the corresponding vertical support 1 and causing obstruction. The snap-fit mechanism will have a matching snap-fit block 21 at the inner end of the vertical support 1 furthest from the connector 3 and at the end of the horizontal support 2, and the end will also be rotatably connected to a connecting block 431. A snap-fit piece 11 is provided on the side of a vertical support 1 that is far away from the connector 3. The snap-fit distance between the two is set to be greater than the aforementioned error. This ensures that the horizontal support 2 is always horizontal after rotating 90 degrees, which will not affect the normal horizontal layout quality of the pipeline. If the other horizontal support 2 has an error, the principle is the same as above. After the rectangular pipeline is installed, when it is connected to another rectangular pipeline, it is only necessary to ensure that the two adjacent corresponding adjustment supports 43 are at the same horizontal height. This will prevent the rectangular pipeline from shifting at different vertical positions during the connection process, improve the quality of circular connection installation, and reduce the labor of workers.
[0063] As the rectangular pipe is lifted and supported by the lifting equipment to move downwards, after the rectangular pipe is positioned on the corresponding horizontal support 2, the upper end of the rectangular pipe will detach from the adjusting support 43. Therefore, at this time, it is necessary to loosen the knob on the adjusting rod 42 to adjust the adjusting rod 42 so that the lower end of the adjusting support 43 presses against the upper end of the rectangular pipe. The rectangular pipe is clamped and limited by the horizontal support 2 and the adjusting support 43. Subsequently, the corresponding holes are fixed one by one by the staff.
[0064] Preferably, the lower end of the adjusting bracket 43 is also provided with a cooperating bracket 432, the positioning block 5 includes a positioning shaft 51 and a spring 52, the positioning shaft 51 is slidably disposed at the center of the transverse bracket 2, the two ends of the spring 52 are respectively connected to the positioning shaft 51 and the lower end of the transverse bracket 2, and the positioning shaft 51 is provided with a knob that can control the extension and retraction of the positioning shaft 51.
[0065] It also includes two cage-joining mechanisms 6 and pipe clamp supports 7. The two cage-joining mechanisms 6 are symmetrically arranged inside the transverse support 2. There are two pipe clamp supports 7, which are symmetrically arranged on the transverse support 2 and connected to the corresponding cage-joining mechanism 6. Each cage-joining mechanism 6 includes a first fixing block 61, a second fixing block 66, a spring damper 62, a hook 63, a fixing tube 64, and a push rod 65. The end of the spring damper 62 is connected to the second fixing block 66. The transverse support 2 is provided with two sliding grooves 23. A connecting rod 71 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of each of the two pipe clamp supports 7. Each cage-joining mechanism 6 has two hooks 63. 3 are all connected to the first end of the spring damper 62. The lower ends of the two connecting rods 71 pass through the corresponding sliding grooves 23 and are connected to the two corresponding hooks 63 in a through manner. There are two fixed tubes 64. The two fixed tubes 64 are symmetrically arranged inside the sliding grooves 23 on one side of the transverse support 2, and the first ends of the two hooks 63 are respectively hung at the opening of the corresponding fixed tubes 64. The second fixed block 66 is connected to the fixed tubes 64 and is located between the two fixed tubes 64. There are two push rods 65, and the ends of the push rods 65 extend through the inside of the corresponding fixed tubes 64 to the side of the corresponding hooks 63. The first end of the push rod 65 is located beside the positioning shaft 51 and is connected to the first fixed block 61.
[0066] The positioning shaft 51 is provided with two inclined plates 511, and the two inclined plates 511 are symmetrically arranged and face the corresponding pipe clamp bracket 7 respectively. The transverse bracket 2 is provided with an inclined groove for the movement of the two inclined plates 511.
[0067] The outer walls of the two pipe clamp supports 7 are also provided with holes that match the seismic bracing.
[0068] Based on the installation of rectangular pipes, this invention applies the same installation steps to circular pipes as the rectangular pipes, particularly when the circular pipes are inside the two vertical supports 1. When the circular pipe is positioned within the required location of the two vertical supports, and the lifting device supports it, while the horizontal support 2 is engaged with the corresponding vertical support 1 and is in a horizontal state, the lifting device supports the circular pipe as it moves downwards. The circular pipe then rests on the corresponding horizontal support 2. The lifting device is then removed. During the downward movement of the circular pipe through the horizontal support 2, the lower end of the circular pipe presses against the positioning shaft 51, exerting a downward thrust on it. The spring 52 is in a stretched state. The downward movement of the positioning shaft 51 causes the two inclined plates 511 on the positioning shaft 51 to move downwards within the corresponding inclined grooves on the horizontal support 2. The movement of the inclined plate 511 will push the corresponding push rod 65 within the corresponding fixed tube 64 through its own tilt angle. After the positioning shaft 51 moves downward and is level with the horizontal support 2, the end of the corresponding push rod 65 will push out the corresponding hook 63 located at the opening of the corresponding fixed tube 64, causing the hook 63 to disengage from the opening of the corresponding fixed tube 64. At this time, without a fixed point, the hook 63 will be driven by the tension of the corresponding spring damper 62 to move the corresponding connecting rod 71 towards the positioning shaft 51 within the corresponding sliding groove 23. The two pipe clamp supports 7 will also move synchronously to form a semi-circular state, clamping the circular pipe within the two pipe clamp supports 7. The adjusting rod 42 is adjusted so that the matching support 432 at the lower end of the adjusting support 43 presses against the circular pipe, forming a circular pipe support that is fixed and matched with the circular pipe. (Refer to...) Figure 15 As shown, the corresponding holes can be fixed one by one by the staff. The positioning block 5 and the spring 52 can provide an upward support force for the pipe.
[0069] When both spring dampers 62 return to their initial state, and after all the circular pipes are installed and fixed, the connecting rod 71 can be rotated toward the corresponding vertical support 1, as shown in the reference. Figure 12 As shown, the two connecting rods 71 and the corresponding pipe clamp brackets 7 can be connected by bolts, while the two spring dampers 62 are in a stretched state at this time, which can play a role in supporting and damping the pipe, realizing the secondary use of the two spring dampers 62.
[0070] Since the pipes are installed by splicing, after the first pipe is installed, the next pipe needs to be aligned with the adjacent pipe. During the alignment process, it is essential to ensure that the axis of each pipe is the same. In the case of errors in the vertical support 1 mentioned above, by measuring and adjusting the corresponding adjustment support 43 to a uniform height, the corresponding horizontal support 2 will inevitably be in a horizontal state after rotating 90 degrees. Therefore, in the pipe alignment installation, the upper end of the circular pipe has the same contact height with the adjustment support 43, and the corresponding horizontal support 2 rotates at the lower end. This means that the axis of the circular pipe remains consistent during the alignment process, thus preventing the occurrence of different axes during the alignment process. This improves the quality of circular alignment installation and reduces the labor required of workers.
[0071] When installing rectangular pipes side by side in sequence, this invention refers to... Figure 3 As shown, simply set the horizontal support 2 to the required matching length. When installing and arranging circular pipes side by side, refer to... Figure 4 As shown, with the adjustment mechanism 4 unchanged, the required matching components for the installation of circular pipes, such as the required matching bracket 432, the cage mechanism 6, and the pipe clamp bracket 7, can be added. The installation operation process is similar to that described above.
[0072] This invention achieves simultaneous installation of rectangular and circular pipes by offsetting the positions of the required clamping mechanism 6, pipe clamp support 7, mating support 432, snap-fit component 11, snap-fit block 21, and connecting block 431. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the installation steps are based on the same principle as described above.
[0073] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
