Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pipeline welding, and in particular to a welding quality detection technology for a multi-channel pipeline group with narrow separation space formed due to densely arranged pipelines, and specifically to a leakage test tool and an operation method for a densely welded pipeline group. Background Art
[0002] In the field of industrial pipelines, the possibility of gas (or fluid) leakage from the weld of welded pipelines is a complex and critical safety issue, which is affected by a variety of factors. Among them, the quality of the weld is crucial. If there are defects such as lack of fusion, lack of penetration, slag inclusions, cracks, etc., these will become direct channels for gas (or fluid) to leak under pressure. At the same time, the strength, toughness and corrosion resistance of the pipeline material will also affect the sealing and overall strength of the weld. If the material itself has defects or is susceptible to corrosion, then the weld will be more likely to leak when under pressure.
[0003] In addition, the type of gas (or fluid) and its pressure are also important factors affecting the possibility of leakage. In particular, some toxic and harmful gases, such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, ozone and hydrogen fluoride, are more likely to leak through weld defects under pressure due to their small size and strong permeability. The leakage of these toxic and harmful gases will not only pollute the environment, but also pose a serious threat to people's lives and health.
[0004] In particular, there are many challenges in conducting weld leak detection on pipelines in a small space where pipelines are close to each other: space limitations make it difficult for inspectors to perform their duties, their vision is blocked, the operation is more difficult, such as equipment operation difficulties, extended detection time, and the applicability of detection technology is limited. The detection technology may not be able to fully function due to space limitations, and some detection equipment is too large or heavy to be suitable for small spaces. In addition, the need for specific power supply or environmental conditions further aggravates the difficulty and complexity of detection.
[0005] Therefore, in order to ensure the safe operation of welded pipelines, a series of effective detection and prevention measures must be taken on the pipelines before they are put into use. Summary of the invention

[0010] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism includes a main wheel disc, an auxiliary wheel disc, a belt, a main drive disc, an auxiliary drive disc, a rotating shaft and a motor.

When it is detected that the gas concentration exceeds the standard, the prompter immediately starts the sound and light alarm, and sends out an obvious alarm signal through the high-brightness LED light and the buzzer; the leak detector 23 can be set outside a small through hole 22 to detect the leakage of the pipe body 4 connected thereto, or it can be set outside each small through hole 22 one by one to detect the leakage of each connected pipe body 4. Since the active leak detector 23 is an existing public technology, the present invention does not make much description.The outer part of each turntable 2 is sleeved with a rotating mechanism 3 for driving the turntable 2 to rotate. The rotating mechanism 3 includes a main wheel disc 31, an auxiliary wheel disc 32, a belt 33, a main drive disc 34, an auxiliary drive disc 35, a rotating shaft 36 and a motor 37. The main wheel disc 31 and the auxiliary wheel disc 32 are sleeved on the two turntables 2 respectively. The main wheel disc 31 and the auxiliary wheel disc 32 are sleeved with a belt 33 respectively, and the other ends of the two belts 33 are respectively on the main drive disc 34 and the auxiliary drive disc 35. The main wheel disc 31 is connected to the main drive disc 34 through the corresponding belt 33, and the auxiliary wheel disc 32 is connected to the main drive disc 34 through the corresponding belt 33. The main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35 are connected; support feet are respectively arranged on both sides of the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35, and the bottom of the support feet is connected to a support plate, and the support feet cooperate with the support plate to improve the stability of the placement of the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35; a rotating shaft 36 is connected between the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35, and one end of the rotating shaft 36 passes through the interior of the main drive disk 34 and is connected to the motor 37; the motor 37 cooperates with the rotating shaft 36, which can not only drive the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35 to rotate synchronously, but also ensure that the turntable 2 and its pipeline body 4 rotate synchronously Rotation, while reducing the cost of electricity use and resource waste; the two ends of the pipeline body 4 are respectively sleeved inside the two turntables 2, and a clamping mechanism 5 is respectively provided at the top of each bracket assembly 1, which is used to temporarily clamp the bracket assembly 1 and the turntable 2 inside it with the pipeline body 4. The clamping mechanism 5 includes a slide rail 51, a slider 52, a connecting plate 53, a gas rod 54 and a cylinder 55. The slide rail 51 is arranged on one side of the top of the bracket assembly 1, and the upper end surfaces on both sides of the slide rail 51 are respectively vertically provided with limit plates, and the slide rail 51 is sleeved with a slider 52, and the two sides of the slider 52 are symmetrically provided with connecting plates 53, each connecting A gas rod 54 is inserted into the interior of the plate 53.

The connecting ring 541 and the gas rod 54 are temporarily fastened by a rotating thread, and the other end of the gas rod 54 is connected to the cylinder 55. By locking the knob of the connecting ring 541 on one end of the gas rod 54, the gas rod 54 is limited to one side of the connecting plate 53. When it is necessary to open the clamping blocks 13 on both sides, the knob of the connecting ring 541 can be removed, and then the slider 52 can be pushed to the outside of the slide rail 51 to make the connecting plate 53 away from the gas rod 54. At this time, the clamping blocks 13 on both sides lose connection, so that they are folded to both sides.
[0023] For example, when testing the straight-segment pipe body 4, specifically, the two turntables 2 are respectively placed inside the bracket assemblies 1 on both sides, the main wheel disc 31 and the auxiliary wheel disc 32 of the rotating mechanism 3 are respectively sleeved on the two turntables 2, and then the two ends of the plurality of straight-segment pipe bodies 4 are respectively sleeved in the large through holes 21 and the small through holes 22 of the turntables 2 on both sides. The specific placement position can be selected according to the diameter of the straight-segment pipe body 4; after the plurality of straight-segment pipe bodies 4 are placed, the two cylinders 55 of the clamping mechanism 5 are started to provide driving force, and the cylinders 55 are used to drive the gas rods 54 connected thereto to pull the connecting plates 53 on both sides to move inward, and then the connecting plates 53 on both sides pull the middle slider 52 to move inward along the slide rail 51, thereby the clamping blocks 13 on both sides are clamped. The bracket assembly 1 is locked to form an integral whole; the turntable 2 at the other end and the bracket assembly 1 are operated according to the same steps, based on which the two turntables 2 are temporarily buckled in the bracket assemblies 1 at both ends; it should be noted that there is a certain gap between the turntable 2 and the inner wall of the clamping block 13 after being temporarily buckled, so that the turntable 2 can rotate; at this time, the motor 37 is started to provide driving force, and the motor 37 is used to drive the shaft 36 to drive the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35 to rotate synchronously, and the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35 respectively drive the main wheel disk 31 and the auxiliary wheel disk 32 to rotate synchronously with the help of the belt 33 sleeved therewith; based on this, the turntables 2 at both ends are respectively driven to rotate by the main wheel disk 31 and the auxiliary wheel disk 32, thereby driving the straight segment pipe body 4 sleeved by the turntable 2 to rotate synchronously.
[0024] In order to better demonstrate the operation process of a leakage test tool for a densely welded pipe group, the present invention provides an operation method of a leakage test tool for a densely welded pipe group, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Before testing, remove the connecting ring 541, push the slider 52 outward to make the connecting plate 53 away from the gas rod 54, place the turntable 2 in the semi-arc grooves 14 of the two clamping blocks 13, and then sleeve a plurality of pipe bodies 4 in the large through hole 21 and the small through hole 22 respectively; Step 2: Before testing, fold the clamping blocks 13 on both sides upwards, insert the gas rod 54 into the corresponding connecting plate 53, and sleeve the connecting ring 541 back, start the cylinder 55 to cause the gas rod 54 to pull the connecting plate 53 and the slider 52 to move inward along the slide rail 51, and temporarily lock the turntable 2 and its pipeline body 4 in the bracket assembly 1, and there is a certain gap between the turntable 2 and the inner wall of the clamping block 13 after being temporarily locked, so that the turntable 2 can rotate, and then operate the turntable 2 and the bracket assembly 1 at the other end according to the same steps; Step 3: Before testing, a leak detector 23 is installed on a certain pipe body 4, and in particular, the leak detector 23 can be installed at the weld position of the key pipe body 4; Step 4: Fill all test pipes with inert gas and temporarily seal the pipe ports with plugs or blind plates; Step 5: Start the motor 37 to drive the rotating shaft 36 to drive the main driving disk 34 and the auxiliary driving disk 35 to rotate synchronously. The main driving disk 34 and the auxiliary driving disk 35 drive the main wheel disk 31 and the auxiliary wheel disk 32 to rotate synchronously respectively by means of the belt 33. Based on this, the main wheel disk 31 and the auxiliary wheel disk 32 respectively drive the rotating disks 2 at both ends to rotate, and gradually the pipeline generates centrifugal force due to the rotation; Step 6: Under the action of the centrifugal force generated by the continuous rotation, the inert gas inside the pipeline body 4 generates pressure outside the pipeline. Based on this, the leakage detector 23 rotating with the pipeline performs continuous leakage detection on the pipeline, especially the weld position of the pipeline, in real time; Step 7: When the motor 37 is turned off and stops rotating, the air cylinder 55 is started to cause the air rod 54 to pull the connecting plate 53 and the slider 52 to move outward along the slide rail 51, then the connecting ring 541 is removed to move the air rod 54 out of the inside of the connecting plate 53, and the clamping blocks 13 on both sides are folded down to take out the turntable 2, take out the pipeline body 4, remove the leakage detector 23, and then operate the turntable 2 and the bracket assembly 1 at the other end according to the same steps.
[0025] The beneficial effects achieved by the above content are as follows: Through the above method, the pressure testing requirements of pipe section welds under the premise of narrow space caused by pipeline groups are met, the quality of welds is ensured, and it is in line with the development trend of industrialized construction in the construction industry; at the same time, the leakage detector can be used to realize synchronous leakage testing of multiple pipelines to improve work efficiency.
[0026] Working principle: by placing multiple pipe bodies 4 in the turntable 2, the turntable 2 is temporarily locked by the bracket assemblies 1 at both ends; the starting motor 37 drives the main drive disk 34 and the auxiliary drive disk 35 to rotate synchronously by using the rotating shaft 36, thereby driving the main wheel disk 31 and the auxiliary wheel disk 32 to rotate synchronously with the help of the belt 33, and the turntables 2 at both ends and the pipe bodies 4 inside them are driven by the main wheel disk 31 and the auxiliary wheel disk 32 to rotate and generate centrifugal force. Under the action of centrifugal force, the inert gas inside the pipe body 4 forms pressure on the pipe wall, and further cooperates with the leakage detector 23 to meet the purpose of pressure testing the weld of the pipe body 4.
[0027] The leak detector 23 in this embodiment can also be used for fluid testing. For example, a chemical test paper is set at the contact position of the weld between the leak detector 23 and the pipeline body 4, and the corresponding reagent is filled in the pipeline body 4. The centrifugal force during the rotation of the pipeline body 4 causes the reagent to exert pressure on the pipe wall of the pipeline body 4. The test paper at the weld position of the outer wall of the outer pipeline body 4 is further used to test whether the weld of the pipeline body 4 is leaking.
[0028] Furthermore, in some hazardous gas or precision industrial piping systems, even a slight gas leak can cause serious damage to life or property. For this reason, it is very necessary to test these piping systems for particulate matter before they are put into production.
[0029] Since the particle diameter of helium is very small, helium testing can detect very small leaks in the pipeline, which is conducive to leak testing of the above-mentioned precision industrial piping systems.
[0030] Based on the above reasons, if the leakage detector 23 in this embodiment is designated as a particle trap (or particle detector), it can be implemented as an effective means of performing helium testing on the pipeline. The general testing process is as follows: Step 1: pre-blow the pipeline to be tested for more than 1 hour to ensure that it meets the cleanliness requirements; Step 2: connect the pipeline to be tested to the leak test tool and fill it with helium for testing; Step 3: turn on the power supply, so that the leak test tool drives the pipeline to be tested to rotate and generates centrifugal force inside the pipeline, so that the helium continues to exert pressure on the pipe wall; Step 4: turn on the leak detector 23 (i.e., particle trap or particle detector) to start monitoring; Step 5: When the test time is reached, the leak detector 23 and the leak test tool are turned off in sequence; Step 6: Determine whether there is a helium leak by using the leak detector 23.
[0031] During the above helium leak test, the data must be qualified within 3 minutes of continuous operation to be valid. During the test, if the test data is unqualified, the data will be invalidated and retested until it is qualified; if the pipeline reason is eliminated and the data is still unqualified, the gas source should be checked to see if it is qualified.
[0032] In the above-mentioned helium test process, for the particle trap used as the leak detector 23, the particle test specifications are 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0; unit: um.

7. The leak testing tool for a densely welded pipe group according to claim 4, characterized in that: Support feet are respectively provided on both sides of the main drive disk (34) and the auxiliary drive disk (35), and the bottoms of the support feet are connected to support plates.
8. The leak testing tool for a densely welded pipe group according to claim 5, characterized in that: One end of the gas rod (54) passing through the connecting plate (53) is sleeved with a connecting ring (541), and the connecting ring (541) and the gas rod (54) are temporarily fastened via a rotating thread.
9. The leak testing tool for a densely welded pipe group according to claim 5, characterized in that: Limiting plates are respectively vertically arranged on the upper end surfaces of both sides of the slide rail (51).
10. An operating method of a leakage testing tool for a densely welded pipe group according to any one of claims 1 to 9, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: Step 1: Before testing, remove the connecting ring (541), push the slider (52) outward to move the connecting plate (53) away from the gas rod (54), place the turntable (2) in the semi-arc grooves (14) of the two clamping blocks (13), and then respectively sleeve a plurality of pipe bodies (4) into the large through hole (21) and the small through hole (22); Step 2: Before testing, fold the clamping blocks (13) on both sides upwards, insert the gas rod (54) into the corresponding connecting plate (53), and put it back on the connecting ring (541), start the cylinder (55) to make the gas rod (54) pull the connecting plate (53) and the slider (52) to move inward along the slide rail (51), and temporarily lock the turntable (2) and its pipeline body (4) in the bracket assembly (1), and there is a certain gap between the turntable (2) and the inner wall of the clamping block (13) after being temporarily locked, so that the turntable (2) and the bracket assembly (1) at the other end are operated according to the same steps; Step 3: Before testing, a leakage detector (23) is installed on a certain pipeline body (4), and in particular, the leakage detector (23) can be installed at a weld position of a key pipeline body (4); Step 4: Fill all test pipes with inert gas and temporarily seal the pipe ports with plugs or blind plates; Step 5: Start the motor (37) to drive the rotating shaft (36) to drive the main drive disc (34) and the auxiliary drive disc (35) to rotate synchronously. The main drive disc (34) and the auxiliary drive disc (35) respectively drive the main wheel disc (31) and the auxiliary wheel disc (32) to rotate synchronously by means of the belt (33). Based on this, the main wheel disc (31) and the auxiliary wheel disc (32) respectively drive the rotating discs (2) at both ends to rotate, so that the pipeline gradually generates centrifugal force due to the rotation; Step 6: Under the action of the centrifugal force generated by the continuous rotation, the inert gas inside the pipeline body (4) generates pressure outside the pipeline. Based on this, the leakage detector (23) rotating with the pipeline performs continuous leakage detection on the pipeline, especially the weld position of the pipeline, in real time; Step 7: When the motor (37) is turned off and stops rotating, the air cylinder (55) is started to cause the air rod (54) to pull the connecting plate (53) and the slider (52) to move outward along the slide rail (51), then the connecting ring (541) is removed to move the air rod (54) out of the inside of the connecting plate (53), and the clamping blocks (13) on both sides are folded downward to remove the turntable (2), remove the pipeline body (4), remove the leakage detector (23), and then operate the turntable (2) and the bracket assembly (1) at the other end according to the same steps.
