DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] The present invention is further described and understood by the following non-limiting examples.

[0015] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention provides a covering assembly suitable for a straight tube pressure balanced expansion joint, the straight tube pressure balanced expansion joint comprises a first working bellows 1, a balancing bellows 2, and a second working bellows 3 which are arranged in sequence from left to right, a transition pipe 4 and a pressure-bearing ring plate 5 are arranged between the balancing bellows 2 and the first working bellows 1 and the second working bellows 3, and end pipes 6 are arranged at the free ends of the first working bellows 1 and the second working bellows 3 and on both sides of the balancing bellows 2, the covering assembly consists of a plurality of groups of equally divided circles, each group of equally divided circles can be spliced ​​and fixed to form a circular shape, and according to the size of the caliber, the circumference can be divided into 2, 3, or 4 equal parts to form equally divided circles; the covering assembly comprises two groups of working bellows covering assemblies and one group of balancing bellows covering assemblies, the working bellows covering assembly is arranged on the outer rings of the first working bellows 1 and the second working bellows 3, and the balancing bellows covering assembly is arranged on the outer ring of the balancing bellows 2.

[0016] The working bellows sheath assembly includes a small sheathed bellows 7 and a small transitional pipe 8 connected by pipes. The small sheathed bellows 7 and the small transitional pipe 8 are respectively composed of a number of equally divided circles, and each group of equally divided circles can be spliced ​​and fixed to form a circular shape. The small sheathed bellows 7 is connected to the end pipe 6 through an end ring 9, and the small transitional pipe 8 is connected to the transitional pipe 4 through an end ring 9.

[0017] The balancing bellows 2 covering assembly includes a first transition large pipe 10, a covering large bellows 11, and a second transition large pipe 12 connected by a pipe, wherein the first transition large pipe 10, the covering large bellows 11, and the second transition large pipe 12 are respectively composed of a number of equally divided circles, and each group of equally divided circles can be spliced ​​and fixed to form a circular shape. The first transition large pipe 10 is connected to the end pipe 6 on one side of the balancing bellows 2 through an end ring 9, and the second transition large pipe 12 is fixedly installed on the pressure ring plate 5 on the other side of the balancing bellows 2. A rib plate 13 is provided between the second transition large pipe 12 and the pressure ring plate 5, and an end ring 9 is also provided between the second transition large pipe 12 and the pipe of the covering large bellows 11.

[0018] During on-site construction, first plug the original straight pipe pressure balance expansion joint to ensure that there is no leakage in the on-site expansion joint. Then install it according to the following installation steps: 1. Install the working bellows sheathing components on both sides first, 2. Install the balance bellows 2 sheathing components, 3. Test the pressure to check for leaks.

[0019] Since the cross-sectional area of ​​the bellows increases after coating, the blind plate force increases. Therefore, before on-site construction, the waveform parameters of the coated small bellows 7 and the coated large bellows 11 are selected according to the pressure balance requirements to ensure that the waveform parameters of the coated small bellows 7 and the coated balanced large bellows meet the pressure balance requirements. At the same time, the force requirements of the load-bearing pipe are recalculated according to the coated small bellows 7 and the coated large bellows 11 to ensure that the load-bearing pipe in this structure meets the blind plate force generated by the coated small bellows 7 and the coated large bellows. If the load-bearing pipe cannot meet the force requirements, a load-bearing structure is added externally: such as a rib plate 13, etc.

[0020] In summary, the coating assembly provided by the present invention is directly arranged on the outer ring of the first working bellows 1, the second working bellows 3 and the balancing bellows 2 in the existing structure, and can repair the expansion joint on-site without stopping the equipment, which can effectively save the economic losses caused by shutdown. At the same time, the coated small bellows 7 and the coated large bellows 11 whose waveform parameters meet the requirements of pressure balance are selected to ensure that the expansion joint after coating can meet the original performance requirements.

For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
