The structure is simple and easy to install. Since the expansion joint is a flexible body, the expansion joint often twists during the hoisting process, resulting in the vertical center axis of the expansion joint being offset from the center axes of the upper and lower risers. The present invention develops a connection and positioning method for the positioning basket bolt and the expansion joint, which realizes the coincidence of the center lines of the upper and lower openings of the expansion joint during the hoisting process, and facilitates the operation of welding and connecting the expansion joint at high altitudes.
