Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pipeline welding, and in particular relates to a pipeline welding alignment device and method. Background Art

[0002] Large pipelines refer to pipelines with long length, heavy weight and large diameter. The traditional process of pipeline docking uses waste steel plate bottom welding and manual docking, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and low-precision. Traditional manual pipeline docking requires 3-5 workers to cooperate and adjust one by one through hand chain hoists. On average, it takes more than an hour to successfully complete a docking, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in great challenges in pipeline alignment. Therefore, it is of great significance to explore an efficient and high-precision large pipeline welding alignment equipment.

[0003] In the prior art, when aligning existing pipeline welding, hydraulic cylinder drive control, V-shaped blocks and angle cylinder clamping technology are used. However, when adjusting the pipeline, only one of the three directions of left and right, front and back, and up and down can be moved, or two of the three directions can be combined. It is very rare to move in three directions of left and right, front and back, and up and down. For example, CN214350621U discloses a pipeline welding auxiliary alignment device. When in use, the first adjustment mechanism rotates to control the first telescopic support frame to be opened and fixed on the inner wall of the pipeline on the left, and then the pipeline to be welded is inserted from the right side, and then the second adjustment mechanism is used to rotate and control the second telescopic support frame to be opened and fixed on the inner wall of the pipeline, and the distance between the two pipelines is adjusted. The two adjustment mechanisms are tightened to allow the support frame to hold the pipeline firmly, and the welding operation begins. The device can only move in the forward and backward directions; CN211804656U discloses a simple pipeline welding alignment device, through which the weld around the steel pipe can be accurately adjusted to a uniform width, and the device can only move in the left and right directions; For example, CN213945492U discloses a pipeline welding auxiliary alignment tool, including a fixed pipe clamping device, a cantilever bracket, a spacing adjustment movable slider, an up and down movable slider, a front and back movable slider and a movable pipe clamping device, which can adjust the gap between two sections of the pipeline, and can adjust the up and down, left and right relative positions between the two sections of the pipeline, which is equivalent to moving in three directions: left and right, front and back, and up and down. However, the pipeline is suspended by a cantilever bracket, which is not suitable for large pipeline welding alignment, because large pipelines have a large mass and are affected by external forces. Once they shake, their kinetic energy is very large, the alignment effect is poor, and even the safety of the operators is affected. Especially for field alignment welding operations, factors such as wind and nearby mechanical operations will cause the suspended large pipelines to shake.

[0004] In the prior art, the V-block is fixed, and its technical defects are not obvious for the welding alignment of small and medium-sized pipes. However, for the welding alignment of large pipes, the technical defects of the fixed V-block are obvious: due to the obvious deflection of the long-length large pipe, there is an angle between the axial direction of the deflected pipe and the surface of the V-block. When the pipe is dragged and moved, the resistance increases, the alignment is also difficult, and even when the pipe is dragged and moved, the outer peripheral surface of the pipe is damaged.

[0005] In view of the above problems, there is a need for large-scale pipeline welding alignment equipment and alignment method. Summary of the invention

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention is implemented by adopting the following technical solutions: On the one hand, a large-scale pipeline welding alignment device is used for outdoor large-scale pipeline welding operations, including a base plate, on which a first pipeline support module, a second pipeline support module and a fixed support are arranged in sequence and spaced apart.

The left and right hydraulic cylinders push the left and right movable adjustment slides to move left and right through the left and right hydraulic push rods. The direction adjustment device also includes: front and rear hydraulic push rods and front and rear hydraulic cylinders, the front and rear hydraulic cylinders are connected to the front and rear hydraulic cylinder flanges on the front side or rear side of the left and right movable adjustment slide seat through the front and rear hydraulic connecting columns, the front and rear hydraulic push rods are connected to the front and rear movable adjustment slide seat, and the front and rear hydraulic cylinders push the front and rear movable adjustment slide seat to move forward and backward through the front and rear hydraulic push rods; The forward and backward movable adjustment slide is arranged on the top surface of the forward and backward movable adjustment slide, and comprises a vertical heavy-load hydraulic cylinder, upper and lower hydraulic push rods, a vertical guide rail, a coupling base and a coupling; The vertical heavy-load hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the center of the top surface of the front-rear movable adjustment slide, the vertical guide rails are fixedly connected to both sides of the front-rear movable adjustment slide, and the vertical guide rails are slidably connected to the coupling base; The V-block is fixedly connected to the coupling, the coupling is rotatably connected to the coupling base, the upper and lower hydraulic push rods are connected to the coupling base, and the vertical heavy-duty hydraulic cylinder pushes the V-block up and down through the upper and lower hydraulic push rods, the coupling base and the coupling.

[0009] The same device can be used to adjust and move large pipelines in three dimensions: left and right, front and back, and up and down, saving time for adjustment and movement, shortening the entire process, and improving the efficiency of large pipeline welding alignment.

[0010] Preferably, the pipe clamping device is arranged on the top surface of the V-block and is used to clamp large pipes, including: the pipe clamping device includes an angle clamping cylinder and a pipe clamping block, and the output shaft of the angle clamping cylinder is connected to the pipe clamping block.

The left and right hydraulic cylinders 524 push the left and right movable adjustment slide 520 to move left and right through the left and right hydraulic push rods 523.

[0032] In this embodiment, the left and right hydraulic cylinders 524 of the first pipe support module 200 and the second pipe support module 300 are connected to the left and right hydraulic cylinder flanges on the right side of the base 510 through the left and right hydraulic connection columns.

[0038] During the working process of the angle clamping cylinder 601, the piston first completes the rotation stroke - the pressure arm presses down and rotates to the designed specified position and angle, closes the pipe clamping block 602, and then completes the clamping stroke - that is, presses down linearly and clamps the large pipe.

[0039] See also Figure 1 and 7 The fixed support member 400 includes a third V-shaped block 553 and a coupling base 544. The third V-shaped block 550 is provided with a coupling 545.

[0044] S2-1, S2-2 and S2-3 are all optional steps, and only one of the steps, or two or three steps may be performed; after completing one step, another step may be performed and then the previous step may be repeated.
