Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of punching technology, and more specifically, to a punching positioning device and a punching method. Background Technology

[0002] Piling foundations are a crucial foundation type for offshore engineering facilities, widely used in offshore oil platforms, offshore wind power, and mooring systems. Large-diameter steel pipe piles are commonly used in marine engineering as the foundations for fixed offshore structures. These piles have a circular cross-section, ranging from tens to hundreds of meters in length and from less than one meter to over ten meters in diameter, and are driven into the seabed by a hydraulic piling system. With technological advancements, to monitor key construction parameters such as hammering energy, hammering force, pile resistance, internal forces, and pile bearing capacity in real time, engineers often install sensors (accelerometers, strain sensors, etc.) along the generatrix of the circular pipe surface. This real-time monitoring of construction parameters (hammering energy, bearing capacity, internal forces, etc.) guides the construction process and ensures construction safety.

[0003] The installation of the detection sensor requires punching two mounting holes. The line connecting the two holes must be along the generatrix of the circular tube, and the mounting holes must be perpendicular to the surface of the tube. Currently, the common practice in engineering is to use a measuring tape to mark the lines and then use a handheld drill to punch the holes. This method has the following problems: due to the large diameter of the circular tube, the positioning accuracy of the measuring tape method is poor, and the two mounting holes cannot be accurately positioned along the generatrix of the tube; due to the curvature of the circular tube surface, the handheld drill cannot drill perpendicularly into the tube surface, resulting in inaccurate positioning of the mounting holes. Therefore, this easily leads to poor installation accuracy of the detection sensor, thereby reducing the monitoring accuracy and effectiveness of the sensor. Moreover, the on-site operation procedure is complicated, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a punching positioning device to solve the problem that the existing method of using a measuring tape to measure and mark lines and then using a hand-held electric drill to punch holes in a round pipe is prone to inaccurate positioning of the punching position. The present invention also proposes a punching method using this punching positioning device.

[0005] In one aspect, the present invention provides a punching positioning device, the device comprising: a support frame; a height adjustment device disposed at the bottom of the support frame for detachably connecting to the pipe body to be punched and for adjusting the distance between the support frame and the pipe body to be punched; a support, disposed at the top of the support frame in an adjustable position and angle, for mounting a drilling machine to punch the pipe body to be punched; and a positioning mechanism disposed at the bottom of the support frame for positioning the support frame on the pipe body to be punched.

[0006] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned punching positioning device, the positioning mechanism includes: a first positioning component, disposed at the bottom of the support frame, for positioning the support frame axially from the tube body to be punched; and a second positioning component, disposed at the bottom of the support frame, for positioning the support frame circumferentially from the tube body to be punched.

[0007] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned punching positioning device, the first positioning component includes: a retractable first pull wire member, disposed on the side wall at the bottom of the support frame, the pull wire end of the first pull wire member being retracted along the axial direction of the tube body to be punched; and a first locking member, connected to the pull wire end of the first pull wire member, for locking with the tube body to be punched.

[0008] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned punching positioning device, the second positioning component includes: a retractable second pull wire member, disposed on the side wall at the bottom of the support frame, the pull wire end of the second pull wire member being retracted and extended along the circumference of the tube body to be punched; and a second locking member, connected to the pull wire end of the second pull wire member, for locking with the tube body to be punched.

[0009] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned punching positioning device, the tube to be punched is made of iron; the first locking member and the second locking member are both magnetic seats, and the magnetic seats are magnetically attracted to the tube to be punched.

[0010] Furthermore, in the aforementioned punching positioning device, the height adjustment device includes: multiple columns, detachably and positionably disposed at the bottom of the support frame; multiple balls, rotatably disposed at the ends of some columns facing the tube to be punched, and each ball rollingly contacting the tube to be punched; and multiple magnetic bases, disposed at the ends of another portion of the columns facing the tube to be punched, and each magnetic base magnetically attracting the tube to be punched; wherein the tube to be punched is made of iron.

[0011] Furthermore, in the aforementioned punching and positioning device, the support frame is rectangular, and the columns equipped with ball bearings are detachably and positionably positioned at the four corners of the bottom of the support frame.

[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned punching positioning device, the top of the support frame has two parallel support rods, and the opposing walls of the two support rods are each provided with a slide rail; the support includes: a first support plate, the first end of which is slidably connected to the slide rail of one of the support rods; a second support plate, the first end of which is rotatably connected to the second end of the first support plate, and the drilling rig is detachably mounted on the second support plate; a third support plate, the first end of which is lockably connected to the second end of the second support plate, and the second end of the third support plate is slidably connected to the slide rail of the other support rod.

[0013] In this invention, the positioning mechanism positions the support frame on the pipe to be punched according to the punching position. The height adjustment device adjusts the distance between the support frame and the pipe to be punched, connecting the support frame and the pipe. The drill mounted on top of the support frame can then perform punching, enabling precise positioning of the punching position and ensuring accuracy. This improves the installation accuracy of the sensor, is simple and convenient to operate, saves time, and reduces labor intensity. It solves the problem in the prior art where the method of measuring and marking with a tape measure and punching holes in a round pipe by hand-held electric drill easily leads to inaccurate positioning of the punching position. The position of the support on top of the support frame is adjustable, ensuring that the drill corresponds to the punching position, making the drilling direction of the drill perpendicular to the surface of the pipe to be punched, and allowing punching at different punching positions. The angle between the support and the top of the support frame is adjustable, facilitating the adjustment, installation, removal, and replacement of the drill.

[0014] On the other hand, the present invention also proposes a punching method using any of the above-mentioned punching positioning devices, the method comprising the following steps: a determination step, determining two punching positions, the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, and the relative distance between the two punching positions, according to design requirements and parameters of the tube to be punched; a locking step, locking the first locking member in the positioning mechanism to the first end of the tube to be punched; wherein the positioning mechanism includes: a first pull wire member that extends and retracts along the axial direction of the tube to be punched and a first locking member connected to the pull wire end of the first pull wire member; a placement step, placing a support frame on the tube to be punched according to the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, adjusting the distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube to be punched, and connecting the support frame to the tube to be punched; a first punching step, installing a drilling machine on a support, adjusting the position of the support according to the two punching positions and the relative distance between the two punching positions, and punching the tube to be punched by the drilling machine.

[0015] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned punching method, in the determining step, based on the design requirements and parameters of the tube to be punched, the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position, as well as the distance between the new punching position and the first end of the tube to be punched, are also determined; after the first punching step, a locking step is also included, in which the second locking member in the positioning mechanism is locked to the tube to be punched based on the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position; wherein, the positioning mechanism further includes: a second pull wire member that extends and retracts along the circumference of the tube to be punched and a pull wire end of the second pull wire member. The second locking member is connected; the release step involves releasing the locking between the first locking member and the tube to be punched, and releasing the connection between the support frame and the tube to be punched; the adjustment step involves moving the support frame to the second locking member, adjusting the position of the support frame according to the distance between the new punching position and the first end of the tube to be punched, and adjusting the distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube to be punched through the height adjustment device, and then connecting the support frame to the tube to be punched; the second punching step involves punching the tube to be punched by the drilling machine according to the new punching position.

[0016] In this invention, the first locking member is locked to the first end of the tube to be punched. Based on the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, a support frame is placed on the tube to be punched. Then, based on the relative distance between the two punching positions, the drilling machine punches the tube to be punched. This allows for precise positioning of the punching position, ensuring accuracy and improving the installation accuracy of the sensor. The operation is simple and convenient, saving time and reducing labor intensity. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Example of a punching positioning device:

[0025] See Figures 1 to 4 The figure shows a preferred structure of the punching positioning device in this embodiment. As shown, the punching positioning device includes: a support frame 1, a height adjustment device 2, a support 3, and a positioning mechanism. The support frame 1 is hollow and can be a cuboid frame structure. The support frame 1 may include: two rectangular frames 12 and four support columns 11. The two frames 12 are parallel and spaced a certain distance apart, and the two ends of the four support columns 11 are respectively connected to the two frames 12 one-to-one.

[0026] The height adjustment device 2 is located at the bottom of the support frame 1. Figure 1 The lower part shown), specifically, the height adjustment device 2 is provided on the support frame 1 positioned below (relative to the lower part). Figure 1 The bottom of the frame 12 (in terms of the support frame 1). The height adjustment device 2 is used to detachably connect to the tube body 7 to be punched, and the height adjustment device 2 is used to adjust the distance between the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched. The tube body 7 to be punched can be a round tube or other shapes, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0027] The support 3 is adjustablely positioned on the top of the support frame 1. Figure 1 As shown in the upper part), the support 3 is connected to the top of the support frame 1 at an adjustable angle. The support 3 is used to mount the drill rig 4, which punches holes in the pipe body 7 to be punched. Specifically, the support 3 is mounted on the frame 12 above the support frame 1. The position of the support 3 on the top of the support frame 1 is adjustable, that is, the position of the drill rig 4 is adjustable, so that the drill rig 4 can punch holes at different positions. The angle between the support 3 and the top of the support frame 1 is adjustable, which facilitates the adjustment, installation, removal, and replacement of the drill rig 4 when the support 3 rotates at a certain angle relative to the top of the support frame 1.

[0028] The top of the support frame 1 has two parallel support rods 121, and slide rails are provided on the opposing walls of the two support rods 121. Specifically, each frame 12 in the support frame 1 includes: four support rods 121 connected end to end, the four support rods 121 forming a rectangle. The frame 12 located above has support rods 121 arranged in the longitudinal direction... Figure 1 In the two support rods 121 shown (from left to right), each support rod 121 has a slide rail on its body facing the other support rod 121. The two slide rails are arranged opposite each other and extend along the length direction of the frame 12, that is, along the length direction of the support frame 1. Figure 1 (Extended in the direction shown from left to right).

[0029] Preferably, the support 3 includes a first support plate, a second support plate, and a third support plate. The first end of the first support plate is slidably connected to the slide rail of one of the support rods 121. The second end of the first support plate is rotatably connected to the first end of the second support plate, such as by a hinge or a pivot; this embodiment does not limit the rotatable connection method. The second end of the second support plate is lockably connected to the first end of the third support plate, allowing them to be locked or opened. The second end of the third support plate is slidably connected to the slide rail of the other support rod 121. The drill rig 4 is detachably mounted on the second support plate. Since the first and third support plates are slidably connected to the slide rails of the two support rods 121 respectively, the sliding of the first and third support plates causes the second support plate to slide, which in turn causes the drill rig 4 to slide. This allows for adjustable positioning between the support 3 and the support frame 1, enabling punching at different positions of the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0030] When the second and third support plates are locked together, the second support plate is connected to the first and third support plates, and the drilling rig 4 is in a stable state, ready for punching. When the second and third support plates are unlocked, since the second support plate is rotatably connected to the first support plate, the second support plate can rotate around its first end, thereby opening the second support plate. This allows for adjustment of the angle between the support 3 and the support frame 1, enabling operations such as replacement and disassembly of the drilling rig 4.

[0031] The positioning mechanism is located at the bottom of the support frame 1 and is used to position the support frame 1 on the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0032] In practice, the punching position is determined based on design requirements and parameters such as the diameter and length of the pipe body 7 to be punched. Then, according to the punching position, the positioning mechanism determines the position of the support frame 1 on the pipe body 7. After determination, the height adjustment device 2 adjusts the distance between the support frame 1 and the pipe body 7, making the support frame 1 suspended. After adjustment, the height adjustment device 2 is connected to the pipe body 7, keeping the position of the support frame 1 stationary. The drilling rig 4 is installed on the support 3, and the position of the support 3 is adjusted according to the punching position, so that the drilling rig 4 corresponds to the punching position. The drilling rig 4 punches at the punching position. When it is necessary to change the punching position, the support 3 is moved to adjust the position of the drilling rig 4, thereby punching at the new punching position.

[0033] As can be seen, in this embodiment, the positioning mechanism positions the support frame 1 on the tube body 7 to be punched according to the punching position. The height adjustment device 2 adjusts the distance between the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched, so that the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched are connected together. Then the drill 4 installed on the top of the support frame 1 can punch holes. It can accurately position the punching position, ensuring the accuracy of the punching position, thereby improving the installation accuracy of the sensor. The operation is simple and convenient, saving time and reducing labor intensity. It solves the problem that the existing method of using a tape measure to measure and mark lines and hand-held electric drill to punch holes on the round pipe is prone to inaccurate positioning of the punching position. The position of the support 3 on the top of the support frame 1 is adjustable, ensuring that the drill 4 corresponds to the punching position, so that the drilling direction of the drill 4 is perpendicular to the surface of the tube body 7 to be punched, and punching can be performed on different punching positions. The angle between the support 3 and the top of the support frame 1 is adjustable, which facilitates the adjustment, installation, removal and replacement of the drill 4.

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 4 The positioning mechanism includes a first positioning component 5 and a second positioning component 6. The first positioning component 5 is located at the bottom of the support frame 1 and is used to position the support frame 1 axially along the tube body 7 to be punched. The central axis of the support frame 1 along its length is parallel to the axial direction of the tube body 7 to be punched, thus achieving the function of axial positioning along the tube body 7.

[0035] Specifically, the first positioning component 5 includes a first pull wire member 51 and a first locking member 52. The first pull wire member 51 is retractable, meaning its pull end can be extended or retracted. Furthermore, the pull end of the first pull wire member 51 extends or retracts along the axial direction of the tube body 7 to be punched. The first pull wire member 51 is located on the side wall at the bottom of the support frame 1, that is, on the side of the frame 12 below the support frame 1. The first locking member 52 is connected to the pull end of the first pull wire member 51 and locks into the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0036] In specific implementation, the support frame 1 is placed within the lower frame 12, and a solid cuboid mounting base 8 is provided at one of its corners in the width direction. The first pull wire member 51 is disposed on the side wall of the mounting base 8 corresponding to the width direction of the frame 12. The first pull wire member 51 may include: a first housing, a first pull wire, and a first retraction structure. One end of the first pull wire is rotatably wound around the first housing and connected to the first retraction structure, and the other end of the first pull wire is the pull wire end. The first pull wire extends axially along the tube body 7 to be punched, that is, along the length direction of the support frame 1. When it needs to be lengthened, pulling the pull wire end of the first pull wire member 51 will pull the first pull wire outward. When it needs to be retracted, releasing the pull wire end of the first pull wire member 51 will automatically retract the first pull wire.

[0037] The structure of the first pull cord component 51 is the same as that of a measuring tape; its specific structure can be found in the structure of a measuring tape, and will not be described in detail here. Of course, the first pull cord component 51 can also be a measuring tape.

[0038] Preferably, the tube body 7 to be punched is made of iron, and the first locking member 52 is a magnetic base. The magnetic base is magnetically attracted to the tube body 7 to be punched, thus realizing the locking of the first locking member 52 and the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0039] The second positioning component 6 is disposed at the bottom of the support frame 1. The second positioning component 6 is used to position the support frame 1 from the circumferential direction of the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0040] Specifically, the second positioning component 6 includes a second pull wire member 61 and a second locking member 62. The second pull wire member 61 is retractable, meaning its pull end can be extended or retracted, and it extends or retracts along the circumference of the tube body 7 to be punched. The second pull wire member 61 is located on the side wall at the bottom of the support frame 1, that is, it is located on the side of the frame 12 below the support frame 1. The second locking member 62 is connected to the pull end of the second pull wire member 61 and locks into the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0041] In specific implementation, the second pull wire member 61 is disposed on the side wall of the mounting base 8 corresponding to the length direction of the frame 12. The second pull wire member 61 may include: a second housing, a second pull wire, and a second retraction structure. One end of the second pull wire is wound inside the second housing and connected to the second retraction structure, and the other end of the second pull wire is the pull wire end. The second pull wire extends circumferentially along the tube body 7 to be punched. When it is necessary to extend, pulling the pull wire end of the second pull wire member 61 will extend the second pull wire outward. When it is necessary to retract, releasing the pull wire end of the second pull wire member 61 will retract the second pull wire.

[0042] In practice, the structure of the second pull cord component 61 is the same as that of a measuring tape, and its specific structure can be referred to the structure of a measuring tape, which will not be repeated here. Of course, the second pull cord component 61 can also be a measuring tape.

[0043] Preferably, the tube body 7 to be punched is made of iron, and the second locking member 62 is a magnetic base. The magnetic base is magnetically attracted to the tube body 7 to be punched, thus realizing the locking of the second locking member 62 to the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0044] More preferably, the tube body 7 to be punched is made of iron, and the first locking member 52 and the second locking member 62 are both magnetic seats, which are magnetically attracted to the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0045] In practice, the magnetic base can be a magnetic dial indicator base, and a wrench is provided on the magnetic base. When the wrench is turned, the magnetic base generates magnetic force, and at this time, the magnetic base adheres to the surface of the tube body 7 to be punched. When the wrench is turned again, the magnetic base loses its magnetic force, and at this time, the magnetic base separates from the tube body 7 to be punched. The structure of the magnetic dial indicator base can be referred to the description in the prior art, and will not be repeated here.

[0046] As can be seen, in this embodiment, the first locking member 52 is first locked to the end of the tube body 7 to be punched, and then the first pulling member 51 is loosened and the support frame 1 is placed at the punching position according to the distance between the punching position and the end of the tube body 7 to be punched. This can accurately control the distance between the punching position and the end of the tube body to be punched, thereby accurately determining the punching position and ensuring the precise positioning of the punching position. The operation is simple and convenient. When there is a certain arc length between the new punching position and the previously punched punching position, the second pull wire 61 is loosened and the second locking member 62 is placed at the new punching position. The locking between the first locking member 52 and the tube body 7 to be punched, as well as the connection between the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched, are released. The support frame 1 is moved to the second locking member 62. During this process, the second pull wire 61 is in a retracted state. Then, the first locking member 52 is locked to the end of the tube body 7 to be punched. Then, according to the distance between the new punching position and the end of the tube body 7 to be punched, the position of the support frame 1 is adjusted. At this time, the support frame 1 is accurately placed at the new punching position, and the drilling machine 4 can punch the new punching position.

[0047] See also Figures 1 to 4 In the above embodiments, the height adjustment device 2 includes: multiple uprights 21, multiple ball bearings (not shown in the figure), and multiple magnetic bases 22. Each upright 21 is detachably mounted on the bottom of the support frame 1, and the position between each upright 21 and the bottom of the support frame 1 is adjustable, i.e., adjusting the relative position of the upright 21 and the support frame 1, thereby adjusting the distance between the bottom of the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched. Specifically, each upright 21 is placed at the bottom of the frame 12 below the support frame 1, and the uprights 21 are spaced apart.

[0048] Each ball is disposed on a portion of the columns 21, that is, only a portion of the columns 21 are provided with balls, and each column 21 in this portion of the columns 21 is provided with only one ball. Each ball is rotatably connected to the end of the column 21 facing the tube body 7 to be punched, so the ball can rotate on the column 21, and each ball makes rolling contact with the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0049] Each magnetic base 22 is disposed on another part of the columns 21. That is, the other part of the columns 21 is provided with magnetic base 22, and each column 21 in this part of the columns 21 is provided with only one magnetic base 22. Each magnetic base 22 is connected to the end of the column 21 facing the tube body 7 to be punched, and the tube body 7 to be punched is made of iron, and each magnetic base 22 is magnetically attracted to the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0050] In a specific implementation, the magnetic base 22 can be a magnetic dial indicator base, and a wrench is provided on the magnetic base 22. When the wrench is turned, the magnetic base 22 generates magnetic force, and at this time, the magnetic base 22 adheres to the surface of the tube body 7 to be punched. When the wrench is turned again, the magnetic base 22 loses its magnetic force, and at this time, the magnetic base 22 separates from the tube body 7 to be punched. The structure of the magnetic dial indicator base can be referred to the description of the prior art, and will not be repeated here.

[0051] Preferably, the support frame 1 is cuboid in shape, and the ball bearing columns 21 are detachably and positionably positioned at the four corners of the bottom of the support frame 1. Specifically, there are four ball bearing columns 21, which are respectively positioned at the four corners of the frame 12 below the support frame 1. More preferably, the ends of the ball bearing columns 21 are tapered, with the ball bearings located at the tips of the tapered ends.

[0052] In practice, the support frame 1 is placed at each of the four corners of the frame 12 below, and there are four mounting seats 8. The four mounting seats 8 correspond one-to-one with the four corners, and each mounting seat 8 extends outward from the corresponding corner. The four columns 21 correspond one-to-one with the four mounting seats 8.

[0053] Preferably, the top surface of each mounting base 8 ( Figure 1 The above-mentioned sections all have through-mounting brackets along their thickness direction. Figure 1The column 21 is movably inserted through the through hole (shown from top to bottom). Furthermore, each mounting base 8 has a threaded hole on its side wall, which communicates with the corresponding through hole. After the column 21 moves to extend a certain length beyond the bottom of the support frame 1, a bolt is screwed into the threaded hole and abuts against the column 21, keeping the column 21 stationary. This allows for adjustable positioning between the column 21 and the bottom of the support frame 1, and by adjusting the length of the column 21 extending beyond the bottom of the support frame 1, the distance between the bottom of the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched can be adjusted.

[0054] The columns 21 with magnetic bases 22 are spaced apart on the support rods 121 of the frame 12. Specifically, the support frame 1 is placed in the lower frame 12 and each of the two support rods 121 in the length direction is provided with multiple columns 21 spaced apart. Each column 21 is connected to the corresponding support rod 121 in an adjustable position, and each column 21 is provided with a magnetic base 22 at its bottom.

[0055] Preferably, the top surface of the support rod 121 ( Figure 1 The above-mentioned sections are all provided with through support rods 121 in the thickness direction. Figure 1 A through hole (shown from top to bottom) is provided, through which the column 21 is movably inserted. Furthermore, a threaded hole is provided on the side wall of the support rod 121 corresponding to the through hole. The threaded hole is connected to the through hole. After the column 21 moves to extend a certain length beyond the bottom of the support frame 1, a bolt is screwed into the threaded hole and abuts against the column 21, keeping the column 21 stationary. This allows for adjustable positioning between the column 21 and the bottom of the support frame 1, and by adjusting the length of the column 21 extending beyond the bottom of the support frame 1, the distance between the bottom of the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched can be adjusted.

[0056] As can be seen, in this embodiment, by adjusting the position of the column 21 and the support frame 1, the length of the column 21 extending out of the bottom of the support frame 1 can be adjusted, thereby realizing the adjustment of the distance between the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched. The ball bearings allow the support frame 1 to slide freely on the tube body 7 to be punched, and the magnetic base 22 can fix the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched relatively. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0057] In practice, the support frame 1, column 21, support 3 and magnetic base 22 are all made of high-strength and non-deformable metal materials, which play a supporting role. The magnetic base 22 and the magnetic seat have strong magnetic attraction and can be attached to the surface of the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0058] In summary, in this embodiment, the positioning mechanism positions the support frame 1 on the pipe body 7 to be punched according to the punching position, which can accurately position the punching position, ensuring the accuracy of the punching position, thereby improving the installation accuracy of the sensor. The operation is simple and convenient, saving time and reducing labor intensity. The position of the support 3 at the top of the support frame 1 is adjustable, ensuring that the drill 4 corresponds to the punching position, so that the drilling direction of the drill 4 is perpendicular to the surface of the pipe body 7 to be punched, and punching can be performed at different punching positions. The angle between the support 3 and the top of the support frame 1 is adjustable, which facilitates the adjustment, installation, removal, and replacement of the drill 4.

[0059] Example of punching method:

[0060] This embodiment also proposes a punching method using any of the above-mentioned punching positioning devices. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the punching method includes the following steps:

[0061] In step S1, based on the design requirements and the parameters of the tube to be punched, determine the two punching positions, the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, and the relative distance between the two punching positions.

[0062] Specifically, the parameters of the tube to be punched include its diameter and length. Two punching positions are designed based on the design requirements and the diameter and length of the tube. These two punching positions are placed alternately on the same axis of the tube. The distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube, as well as the relative distance between the two punching positions, are determined. The distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube to be punched can also be determined.

[0063] In specific implementation, the structure of the support frame can be referred to the description in the above-mentioned punching positioning device, and will not be repeated here in this embodiment.

[0064] In the locking step S2, the first locking member in the positioning mechanism is locked to the first end of the tube body to be punched; wherein, the positioning mechanism includes: a first pull wire member that extends and retracts along the axial direction of the tube body to be punched and a first locking member connected to the pull wire end of the first pull wire member.

[0065] Specifically, see Figure 1The positioning mechanism includes a first positioning component 5. The first positioning component 5 is disposed at the bottom of the support frame 1. The first positioning component 5 includes a first pull wire member 51 and a first locking member 52. The first pull wire member 51 is retractable; that is, the pull end of the first pull wire member 51 can be extended or retracted. Furthermore, the pull end of the first pull wire member 51 is retracted along the axial direction of the tube body 7 to be punched. The first pull wire member 51 is disposed on the side wall at the bottom of the support frame 1. The first locking member 52 is connected to the pull end of the first pull wire member 51 and locks with the first end of the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0066] In practice, the structure of the first pull element 51 is the same as that of a measuring tape, and its specific structure can be referred to the structure of a measuring tape, which will not be repeated here. Of course, the first pull element can also be a measuring tape.

[0067] Preferably, the tube body 7 to be punched is made of iron, and the first locking member 52 is a magnetic base. The magnetic base is magnetically attracted to the tube body to be punched, thus realizing the locking of the first locking member 52 and the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0068] In specific implementation, the specific structure of the first positioning component can be referred to the description in the above-mentioned punching positioning device, and will not be repeated here in this embodiment.

[0069] In step S3, based on the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, a support frame is placed on the tube to be punched, and the distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube to be punched is adjusted, and the support frame is connected to the tube to be punched.

[0070] Specifically, since the first locking member is locked to the tube body to be punched, the support frame is pulled axially along the tube body to be punched according to the distance between one of the punching positions determined in step S1 and the first end of the tube body to be punched. This causes the pull wire of the first pull member to extend and straighten. When the support frame reaches the specified distance, the pulling is stopped, and the support frame is placed on the tube body to be punched. The distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube body to be punched is adjusted by the height adjustment device, and the support frame is connected to the tube body to be punched by the height adjustment device, so that the position of the support frame on the tube body to be punched remains unchanged, thus determining the position of the support frame. The specific structure of the height adjustment device can be found in the description of the punching positioning device above, and will not be repeated here in this embodiment.

[0071] For specific implementation, please refer to Figure 1Based on the distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube to be punched determined in step S1, the position of the column 21 at the bottom of the support frame 1 is adjusted. When the length of the column 21 extending beyond the bottom of the support frame 1 is equal to the distance between the bottom of the support frame 1 and the tube to be punched 7, the column 21 is locked. Then, the handle is turned, and the magnetic base 22 in the height adjustment device 2 generates a magnetic force and adheres to the tube to be punched 7, thus fixing the support frame 1 and the tube to be punched 7 relatively.

[0072] In the first punching step S4, the drill is installed on the support. The position of the support is adjusted according to the two punching positions and the relative distance between the two punching positions. The drill punches the pipe body to be punched.

[0073] Specifically, see Figures 1 to 3 Move support 3 to one of the punching positions, and drill 4 performs the punching operation. After punching is completed, adjust the position of support 3 on support frame 1 according to the two punching positions and the relative distance between them, so that drill 4 is positioned at the other punching position, and drill 4 performs the punching operation. After both punching operations are completed, remove drill 4 from support 3.

[0074] In specific implementation, the specific structure of each component in the above method can be referred to the description in the above embodiment of the punching positioning device, and will not be repeated here.

[0075] As can be seen, in this embodiment, the first locking member is locked to the first end of the tube to be punched. Based on the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, a support frame is placed on the tube to be punched. Then, based on the relative distance between the two punching positions, the drilling machine punches the tube to be punched. This allows for precise positioning of the punching position, ensuring accuracy and improving the installation accuracy of the sensor. The operation is simple and convenient, saves time, and reduces labor intensity.

[0076] In the above embodiment, in step S1, based on the design requirements and the parameters of the tube to be punched, the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position, as well as the distance between the new punching position and the first end of the tube to be punched, are also determined. Specifically, the axis of the tube to be punched corresponding to the new punching position has a certain arc length with the axis of the tube to be punched corresponding to the previous punching position, and this arc length is determined according to the design requirements.

[0077] Following the first punching step S4, the following also includes:

[0078] In step S5, the second locking member in the positioning mechanism is locked to the tube body to be punched according to the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position; wherein, the positioning mechanism further includes: a second pull wire member that is extended and retracted along the circumference of the tube body to be punched and a second locking member connected to the pull wire end of the second pull wire member.

[0079] Specifically, see Figure 1 The positioning mechanism includes a second positioning component 6. The second positioning component 6 is located at the bottom of the support frame 1. The second positioning component 6 includes a second pull wire member 61 and a second locking member 62. The second pull wire member 61 is retractable; that is, the pull end of the second pull wire member 61 can be extended or retracted. Furthermore, the pull end of the second pull wire member 61 extends and retracts along the circumference of the tube body 7 to be punched, and the second pull wire member 61 is located on the side wall at the bottom of the support frame 1. The second locking member 62 is connected to the pull end of the second pull wire member 61 and locks into the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0080] In practice, the structure of the second pull cord is the same as that of a measuring tape; its specific structure can be found in the measuring tape, and will not be repeated here. Of course, the second pull cord can also be a measuring tape.

[0081] Preferably, the tube to be punched is made of iron, and the second locking component is a magnetic base. The magnetic base is magnetically attracted to the tube to be punched, thus achieving the locking of the second locking component with the tube to be punched.

[0082] After the first punching step S4 is completed, the support frame 1 is in the previous punching position. According to the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position, the second pull wire 61 is pulled so that the arc distance between the position of the second locking member 62 and the support frame 1 is equal to the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position. At this time, the wrench of the magnetic seat is turned, and the magnetic seat is magnetically attracted to the tube body 7 to be punched, that is, the second locking member 62 is locked to the tube body 7 to be punched.

[0083] In specific implementation, the specific structure of the second positioning component can be found in the description of the punching positioning device above, and will not be repeated here in this embodiment.

[0084] Release step S6, release the locking between the first locking member and the tube body to be punched, and release the connection between the support frame and the tube body to be punched.

[0085] Specifically, by turning the wrench, the magnetic base loses its magnetism, separating from the tube body 7 to be punched. This releases the lock between the first locking member 52 and the tube body 7, causing the pull wire in the first pull member 51 to retract and pull the first locking member 52 back to the bottom of the support frame 1. The pull wire in the second pull member 61 is then straightened, and the arc distance between the second locking member 62 and the support frame 1 is checked to see if it equals the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position. When the arc distance between the second locking member 62 and the support frame 1 equals the arc length between the new punching position and the previous punching position, the wrench is turned, the magnetic base 22 loses its magnetism, separating from the tube body 7 to be punched. This releases the connection between the support frame 1 and the tube body 7, allowing the support frame 1 to move freely.

[0086] In step S7, move the support frame to the second locking part, adjust the position of the support frame according to the distance between the new punching position and the first end of the tube to be punched, and adjust the distance between the bottom of the support frame and the tube to be punched by the height adjustment device, and then connect the support frame to the tube to be punched.

[0087] Specifically, by moving the support frame 1, the pull wire in the second pull wire member 61 is retracted. The support frame 1 moves to the second locking member 62, and then the first locking member 52 is locked with the first end of the tube body 7 to be punched. That is, by pulling the wrench, the magnetic base generates magnetic force and is attracted to the end of the first end of the tube body 7 to be punched. According to the distance between the new punching position and the first end of the tube body 7 to be punched, the support frame 1 is pulled along the axial direction of the tube body 7 to be punched, so that the pull wire of the first pull wire member 51 is extended. When the distance is reached, the pulling is stopped, and the support frame 1 is placed on the tube body 7 to be punched. At this time, the new punching position is positioned. The distance between the bottom of the support frame 1 and the tube body 7 to be punched is adjusted by the height adjustment device 2, and the support frame 1 is connected to the tube body 7 to be punched by the height adjustment device 2.

[0088] In the second punching step S8, the drilling machine punches holes in the tube body to be punched according to the new punching position.

[0089] Specifically, based on the new punching position, the position of the support on the top of the support frame is adjusted, and the drilling rig punches the pipe body to be punched at the new punching position. After punching is completed, the locking of the first locking member 52 and the pipe body 7 to be punched is released, i.e., the wrench is turned, the magnetic base loses its magnetism, the magnetic base separates from the pipe body 7 to be punched, the pull wire in the first pull member 51 is retracted, and the first locking member 52 is pulled back to the bottom of the support frame. Then, the connection between the support frame 1 and the pipe body 7 to be punched is released, i.e., the wrench is turned, the magnetic base loses its magnetism, the magnetic base separates from the pipe body 7 to be punched, and the support frame is in a free state and can be retrieved.

[0090] As can be seen, in this embodiment, punching can be performed not only in the axial direction of the tube body to be punched, but also in the circumferential direction of the tube body to be punched, realizing punching at different positions of the tube body to be punched, and accurately positioning the punching position.

[0091] In summary, in this embodiment, the first locking member is locked to the first end of the tube to be punched. Based on the distance between one of the punching positions and the first end of the tube to be punched, a support frame is placed on the tube to be punched. Then, based on the relative distance between the two punching positions, the drilling rig punches the tube to be punched. This allows for precise positioning of the punching position, ensuring accuracy and improving the installation accuracy of the sensor. The operation is simple and convenient, saves time, and reduces labor intensity.
