The capacity of onshore wind power units has reached 10MW, and the capacity of offshore wind power units has reached 16MW. The design thickness of the steel plates used in the tower is getting thicker and thicker. At the same time, due to the development needs of extremely cold climate conditions and offshore service, thicker specifications and larger single weight steel plates are required for tower production. The cost of raw materials has always occupied a large proportion of the design cost. Through the design of raw materials, the existing Q355 material is upgraded to Q420 material, which greatly reduces the use of steel. With the introduction and use of new raw materials, coupled with the welding of high-power tower thick plates, preheating of the parent material before welding has become an important quality control point in the entire tower production process.

A caster 4 is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the base 1, a mounting plate 5 is integrally mounted on the upper end of the base 1, a support rod 6 is rotatably mounted on the outer end of the mounting plate 5, an adjusting rod 7 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the supporting rod 6, a connecting piece 11 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the adjusting rod 7, and the upper surface of the connecting piece 11 is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the mounting frame 3, which is convenient to move and flexible to use; The output shaft of the servo motor 2 is fixedly installed with a threaded screw 9, the outer end of the threaded screw 9 is threadedly connected with a sliding member 8, the outer end of the sliding member 8 is rotatably connected with the lower end of the adjusting rod 7, the outer wall of the base 1 is fixedly installed with a mounting platform 10, and the servo motor 2 is fixedly installed at the outer end of the mounting platform 10. The threaded screw 9 is rotatably installed on the upper end of the mounting platform 10, and the sliding member 8 is slidably installed on the outer end of the mounting platform 10. The servo motor 2 is arranged on the upper side of the base 1, and the servo motor 2 is symmetrically arranged in two groups, which is convenient for adjusting the height of the heating gun 18, convenient for movement and use, and more convenient to operate. It can not only be used for preheating the door frame before welding, but also can adjust the size of the flame to achieve heat preservation and slow cooling of the door frame weld after welding.

[0018] The outer end of the mounting frame 3 is fixedly mounted with a support plate 12, and the outer end of the support plate 12 is slidably mounted with an adjustment plate 13. The outer end of the adjustment plate 13 is fixedly mounted with a first mounting member 14, and the outer end of the first mounting member 14 is closely fitted with a second mounting member 15. The inner ends of the first mounting member 14 and the second mounting member 15 are threadedly connected with a first bolt 16. A seamless gas passage steel pipe 17 is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the first mounting member 14, and a heating gun 18 is fixedly mounted equidistantly on the inner end of the seamless gas passage steel pipe 17. Adjustment holes 19 are equidistantly opened at the inner end of the support plate 12, and the inner end of the adjustment hole 19 is threadedly connected with a second bolt 20. The second bolt 20 is threadedly connected to the inner end of the adjustment plate 13, and the adjustment plate 13 is arranged on the outer side of the heating gun 18. The seamless gas channel steel pipe 17 is slidably installed with the second mounting member 15, and a gas inlet 21 is fixedly installed at the inner end of the seamless gas channel steel pipe 17. The installation positions of the first mounting member 14 and the second mounting member 15 can be adjusted to make the position of the heating gun 18 more consistent with the weld position, which can reduce the labor of construction workers and improve work efficiency.

[0019] Specific working principle: like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, when the preheating tooling for welding the wind power tower door frame is used, due to the irregular shape of the tower door frame, most of them are elliptical. In order to ensure a good preheating effect, the position of the heating gun 18 can be adjusted according to the shape of the tower door frame, so that the heating gun 18 ensures that the heating area covers the door frame weld and can heat the door frame as a whole. At the same time, the tooling needs to be optimized so that the tooling can be convenient for construction personnel to operate, and ultimately achieve the effect of saving time and effort. When adjusting, according to the shape and size of the seamless gas channel steel pipe 17, the positions of the first mounting member 14 and the second mounting member 15 are adjusted to the same as the installation position of the seamless gas channel steel pipe 17. Correspondingly, when adjusting, the second bolt 20 is removed from the adjusting hole 19 and the inner end of the adjusting plate 13, and then the adjusting plate 13 can be slid on the outer end of the support plate 12, and the adjusting plate 13 is adjusted to the desired position, and then the second bolt 20 is used again to fix it, and the positions of each first mounting member 14 and the second mounting member 15 are adjusted to the desired positions, and then the seamless gas channel steel pipe 17 is placed to a position that fits the first mounting member 14, and then the second mounting member 15 is covered on the outer wall of the seamless gas channel steel pipe 17, and the second mounting member 15 is fixedly connected to the first mounting member 14 using the first bolt 16, and the installation of the seamless gas channel steel pipe 17 is completed; like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when in use, the base 1 is pushed, the casters 4 are rotated, and the mounting frame 3 is pushed to the lower side of the wind power tower door frame that needs to be preheated for welding, and is connected to the external gas delivery equipment through the gas inlet 21, and then the height of the heating gun 18 is adjusted. When adjusting the height of the heating gun 18, the servo motor 2 is started, and the output shaft of the servo motor 2 drives the threaded screw 9 to rotate on the upper end of the mounting platform 10 when rotating. When the threaded screw 9 rotates, it drives the sliding member 8 to slide on the upper side of the mounting platform 10. When the sliding member 8 slides in the direction of the support rod 6, the sliding member 8 drives the lower end of the adjusting rod 7 to move outward, and the upper end of the adjusting rod 7 stands up, so that the mounting frame is realized. 3 is raised, when the servo motor 2 drives the threaded screw 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, the sliding member 8 moves in the direction of the servo motor 2, the lower end of the adjusting rod 7 moves inwardly driven by the sliding member 8, and the upper end of the adjusting rod 7 rotates in the direction of the base 1, so as to reduce the height of the mounting frame 3, adjust the mounting frame 3 and the heating gun 18 to a suitable height, so that the outer flame part of the flame from the heating tool can just heat the preheating area, so as to achieve the maximum heating temperature and the overall heating effect of the door frame, and the above completes a series of operations of the preheating tool for welding the wind tower door frame.
