Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steel pipe welding clamping, and in particular relates to a clamping mechanism for a seamless steel pipe. Background Art
[0002] Seamless steel pipes are made of a whole piece of metal, and there are no seams on the surface. They are called seamless steel pipes. According to the production method, seamless pipes are divided into hot-rolled pipes, cold-rolled pipes, extruded pipes, jacking pipes, etc. According to different uses, there are thick-walled pipes and thin-walled pipes. Seamless steel pipes are mainly used as petroleum geological drilling pipes, cracking pipes for petrochemicals, boiler pipes, bearing pipes, and high-precision structural steel pipes for automobiles, tractors, and aviation.
[0003] After searching, Chinese patent publication number CN109108566B proposed that the traditional seamless steel pipe clamping device is unstable and cannot achieve stable butt welding, and proposed a solution to clamp the seamless steel pipe by two arc grooves, and to make the two seamless steel pipes close to each other and weld by rotating the bidirectional screw. This solution has the following problems: 1. Use an arc groove to clamp the seamless steel pipe. If the radius of the arc groove is larger than the radius of the seamless steel pipe, there are only two straight lines in contact between the arc groove and the seamless steel pipe. Positioning and clamping are performed through the two straight lines of contact, and the stability is not high. If the radius of the arc groove is smaller than the radius of the seamless steel pipe, the seamless steel pipe cannot be placed in the arc groove for clamping.
[0004] 2. Since the welding surface is circular, only the upper part can be welded, and the lower part is not easy to weld. Therefore, to complete the complete welding, it is necessary to weld a part first, and then disassemble the seamless steel pipe, rotate it at a certain angle, and clamp it again for welding. To complete the welding, the seamless steel pipe needs to be disassembled once or multiple times, which is troublesome to operate and has low work efficiency.
[0005] 3. During the welding process of seamless steel pipes, the welding area must be kept dry and clean to avoid overheating. The existing equipment does not have the function of ventilation and cooling. The high temperature of the welding head during long-term operation can easily damage the seamless steel pipe and affect the welding quality. Summary of the invention

The screw 14 is threadedly connected with a slider 15, and the threads on the two screws 14 have the same direction. When the first bevel gear 122 rotates, it drives the two second bevel gears 141 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the sliders 15 move in opposite directions, so that the two sliders 15 are close to or away from each other. A first slide plate 151 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slider 15, and the two ends of the first slide plate 151 are respectively slidably connected to the side wall of the base 1 close to the rotating shaft 12 and the support frame 11. The rotation of the rotating shaft 12 drives the screw 14 to rotate, thereby adjusting the distance between the two first slide plates 151.
[0020] The upper surface of the first slide plate 151 is fixedly connected with a clamp body 2, and a second slide plate 16 is slidably connected between the side wall of the base 1 away from the rotating shaft 12 and the support frame 11, and a slide groove is provided on the base 1 and the support frame 11, and the first slide plate 151 and the second slide plate 16 are both slidably connected in the slide groove, and the first slide plate 151 is fixedly connected to the second slide plate 16. The first slide plate 151 and the second slide plate 16 are fixedly connected to ensure that when the handle 121 is rotated, the first slide plate 151 and the second slide plate 16 move synchronously, and the relative positions of the first pulley 163 and the second pulley 28 will not change, so as to prevent the belt from falling off, and the upper surface of the second slide plate 16 is fixedly connected with a motor 161, and a cam 162 and a first pulley 163 are fixedly connected on the output shaft of the motor 161, and an air cylinder 17 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1, and the air outlet position of the air cylinder 17 is aligned with the weld position, and a piston 171 is provided in the air cylinder 17, and the piston 171 reciprocates in the air cylinder 17 to generate airflow to cool the weld and the welding head.
[0021] Two first telescopic rods 18 are arranged on the upper surface of the side wall of the base 1 away from the rotating shaft 12, and a connecting rod 181 is fixedly connected to one end of the two first telescopic rods 18 away from each other, and one end of the connecting rod 181 away from the first telescopic rod 18 is slidably connected to the cam 162, and support blocks are arranged on the side wall of the base 1 away from the rotating shaft 12 and the upper surface of the support frame 11, and the air cylinder 17 is fixedly connected to the support block on the upper surface of the support frame 11, and the end of the piston 171 away from the air cylinder 17 is rotatably connected to the support block on the upper surface of the base 1, and the piston 171 It is slidably connected to the gas cylinder 17. When the motor 161 rotates, it drives the cam 162 to rotate. Under the action of the cam 162, the connecting rod 181 reciprocates in the horizontal plane. The first telescopic rod 18 moves synchronously with the cam 162, so that the piston 171 fixed on the first telescopic rod 18 reciprocates in the gas cylinder 17. The reciprocating motion of the piston 171 in the gas cylinder 17 generates airflow. The airflow blows from the air outlet of the gas cylinder 17 to the weld and the welding head, cools the weld and the welding head, avoids the damage of the seamless steel pipe due to the excessive temperature of the welding head during long-term operation, and ensures the quality of welding.
[0022] The clamp body 2 includes a main body 21, a through hole 22 is provided on the main body 21, and an annular groove is provided on the side wall of the main body 21 near the through hole 22, an annular plate 23 is slidably connected in the annular groove, and a second pulley 28 is fixedly connected to the annular plate 23. When the second pulley 28 rotates, it will drive the annular plate 23 to rotate synchronously in the annular groove, so that the extrusion plate 27, the V-shaped block 25 and the seamless steel pipe rotate, and a groove corresponding to the annular plate 23 is provided on the side of the main body 21 away from the second bevel gear 141, and the second pulley 28 extends to the outside of the main body 21 through the groove, and the second pulley 28 is connected to the first pulley 163 by a belt. The transmission ratio of the pulley 163 is 1:5, which reduces the rotation speed of the second pulley 28 so that the seamless steel pipe rotates at a suitable speed, which is convenient for welding workers to weld and ensures the welding quality. The annular plate 23 is fixedly connected with a fixed block 24 and a V-shaped block 25. The fixed block 24 and the V-shaped block 25 are positioned relative to each other. The fixed block 24 is fixedly connected with a second telescopic rod 26 on the side away from the annular plate 23, and the second telescopic rod 26 is fixedly connected with an extrusion plate 27 on one end away from the fixed block 24. When clamping, the seamless steel pipe is placed on the V-shaped block. When the length of the second telescopic rod 26 is adjusted, the extrusion plate 27 clamps the seamless steel pipe on the V-shaped block. The seamless steel pipe is clamped by the extrusion plate 27 and the V-shaped block, and the clamping is more stable.
[0023] The functional principle of the present invention can be explained through the following operation mode: when in use, the two seamless steel pipes to be welded are respectively placed on the two V-shaped blocks 25, and the extrusion plate 27 is adjusted to press the seamless steel pipe onto the V-shaped block 25 by adjusting the second telescopic rod 26. The seamless steel pipe is clamped by the V-shaped block 25 and the extrusion plate 27. The contact parts of the V-shaped block 25 and the extrusion plate 27 with the seamless steel pipe when clamped are three straight lines. Compared with the existing clamping through two arc grooves, the clamping stability is higher. Then the handle 121 is rotated to drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 12 drives the first bevel gear 122 to rotate. Under the meshing action of the first bevel gear 122 and the second bevel gear 141, the two screws 14 start to rotate, and the slider 15 on the screw 14 drives the first slide plate 151 and the clamp body 2 to approach each other to connect the two seamless steel pipes together. After the clamping is stable, the motor 161 is turned on to prepare for welding.
[0024] Turn on the motor 161, and the output shaft of the motor 161 drives the first pulley 163 to rotate. Under the action of the belt, the second pulley 28 drives the annular plate 23 to rotate, so that the fixed block 24 and the V-shaped block 25 fixed on the annular plate 23 rotate, thereby rotating the seamless steel pipe clamped between the V-shaped block 25 and the extrusion plate 27. Workers can directly weld at the welding point, so that the seamless steel pipe can rotate automatically during the welding process, and there is no need for multiple disassembly and welding. The operation is simple and the work efficiency is high. In addition, only welding once makes the weld more beautiful.
[0025] When the motor 161 drives the first pulley 163 to rotate, the cam 162 rotates together. The rotation of the cam 162 causes the connecting rod 181 to pull the first telescopic rod 18 to reciprocate, thereby causing the piston 171 to reciprocate in the air cylinder 17. The generated airflow blows toward the weld and the welding head to cool them down. While cooling the weld, it can prevent the welding head from overheating and damaging the seamless steel pipe.
[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
