[0002] In the field of oil transportation, the laying and maintenance of oil pipelines are crucial links. Oil pipeline docking refers to connecting the ends of two or more sections of pipelines in a specific way to form a complete oil transportation system. The quality of docking directly affects the sealing, pressure resistance and operational safety of the pipeline. Oil pipeline docking is widely used in various links of oil extraction, transportation, storage and refining. It is an important process in oil and gas transportation engineering. The traditional oil pipeline docking process mainly relies on manual measurement, marking and manual adjustment of pipeline position, supplemented by lifting equipment for docking.

When using it to dock pipes, the two pipes are respectively inserted into the clamping cavity jointly formed by the upper clamping device and the lower clamping device of the two pipe clamping devices, and then the clamping cavity is reduced, so that the upper clamping device and the corresponding lower clamping device can clamp a pipe together. Since the distance between the two pipe clamping devices is adjustable, after the pipe clamping devices clamp the pipes, the two pipe clamping devices can be brought close to each other to dock the two pipes. Compared with the existing technology, the construction difficulty is low, the efficiency is high, the cost is low and the construction safety performance is high. After the docking is completed, the clamping cavity is enlarged, and the connection between the other end of the upper clamping device and the lower clamping device is disassembled, and then the upper clamping device is flipped over to facilitate the removal of the docked pipe.

A strip slide groove 302 is opened on the inner wall of the docking seat 1 along the length direction. The convex sliding seat 301 is rotatably connected with the strip slide groove 302. A driving mechanism is provided on the docking seat 1, which is used to drive the convex sliding seat 301 to slide in the strip slide groove 302 to adjust the position of the pipe clamping assembly 3. The driving mechanism includes a driving motor 303 and a first screw 304. The first screw 304 is rotatably connected in the strip slide groove 302 and is threadedly connected to the convex sliding seat 301. The output shaft of the driving motor 303 is fixedly connected to the first screw 304 through a coupling.
[0057] The pipe orifice detection assembly 5 is arranged on the movable pipe clamping assembly 3 and is in transmission connection with the linkage assembly 4. When the pipe clamping assembly 3 is driven to move forward and backward in the docking seat 1, the linkage assembly 4 synchronously drives the pipe orifice detection assembly 5 to detect the pipe orifice of the oil pipeline clamped on the movable pipe clamping assembly 3. The pipe orifice detection assembly 5 includes an arcuate slide 51 provided on the inverted U-shaped seat 31 and an arcuate sliding seat 52 slidably connected in the arcuate slide 51.

[0058] Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the oil pipeline docking auxiliary device is used, the installed and fixed oil pipeline is clamped by the fixed pipeline clamping assembly 3, and the pipeline to be docked with the fixed oil pipeline is clamped by the movable pipeline clamping assembly 3. When clamping the fixed oil pipeline, the position of the docking seat 1 is moved so that the oil pipeline to be clamped is located in the docking seat 1, and then the hydraulic telescopic rod 33 is controlled to extend, driving the clamping mechanism 34 to move down and clamp and fix it on the oil pipeline, and then the hydraulic telescopic rod 33 is controlled to contract so that the length of the hydraulic telescopic rod 33 is the same as the length of the hydraulic telescopic rod 33 on the fixed pipeline clamping assembly 3. Therefore, when the pipeline clamping assembly 3 clamps the pipeline, the inverted U-shaped seat 31 with a lower opening and the clamping mechanism 34 are set, so that when clamping the oil pipeline, there is no need to manually lift the pipeline and insert it into the clamping mechanism 34, which overcomes the traditional method of manually lifting the pipeline and inserting the pipeline into the pipeline clamping device for fixing, making the clamping and fixing of the oil pipeline more convenient and labor-saving.
[0059] Secondly, when the oil pipeline is clamped and fixed, when docking, the movable pipe clamping assembly 3 is controlled to move toward the fixed pipe clamping assembly 3, so that the two pipe clamping assemblies 3 are close to each other, and the oil pipelines clamped and fixed on the two pipe clamping assemblies 3 are docked. The specific method of controlling the movable pipe clamping assembly 3 is to turn on the driving motor 303, drive the first screw 304 to rotate through the driving motor 303, and the first screw 304 drives the convex sliding seat 301 to move, and the convex sliding seat 301 drives the movable pipe clamping assembly 3 to move to achieve the docking of the pipelines;
[0060] Furthermore, when the movable pipe clamping assembly 3 is driven to move by the convex sliding seat 301, the linkage assembly 4 synchronously drives the pipe mouth detection assembly 5 to detect the pipe mouth of the oil pipeline clamped on the movable pipe clamping assembly 3, thereby eliminating the need to set a driving mechanism to drive the pipe mouth detection assembly 5 to rotate. On the one hand, this reduces the manufacturing cost and operational complexity of the equipment, and secondly, it realizes automatic detection of the pipe mouth during the docking process, further improving the efficiency of the oil pipeline docking.
[0061] The specific method in which the linkage component 4 synchronously drives the pipe mouth detection component 5 to detect the pipe mouth of the oil pipeline clamped on the movable pipe clamping component 3 is as follows: when the convex sliding seat 301 drives the movable pipe clamping component 3 to move to achieve the docking of the pipeline, the movable pipe clamping component 3 synchronously drives the driving shaft 41 to move. When the driving shaft 41 moves, the driving slider 45 fixed on the inner wall of the docking seat 1 moves in the spiral groove 44 opened in the driving shaft 41, thereby driving the driving shaft 41 to rotate, and the rotation of the driving shaft 41 drives the driving gear 42 to rotate, and the rotation of the driving gear 42 drives the ring gear 55 to rotate, and the ring gear 55 drives the annular detection frame 53 to rotate, thereby driving the laser scanner 54 set on the annular detection frame 53 to rotate one circle, scan the detection of the pipe mouth, and wirelessly transmit the scanning result to the terminal PC.

[0064] In this embodiment, the specific method of clamping and fixing the pipeline by the clamping mechanism 34 includes: in the initial state, the two clamping claws 342 are in an open structure, the hydraulic telescopic rod 33 is controlled to extend, and the clamping mechanism 34 is driven to move downward, so that the two clamping claws 342 are sleeved on the outer wall of the oil pipeline, and then the servo motor 349 is controlled to work to drive the second screw 345 to rotate, and the rotation of the second screw 345 drives the bar seat 346 to move upward, and the bar seat 346 pulls the L-shaped connecting rod 344 to rotate through the second connecting rod 347, thereby driving the two clamping claws 342 to close each other, thereby clamping and fixing the oil pipeline.

In this embodiment, the center point of the pipe mouth is preferably used as the coordinate origin, and the length, width and height of the pipeline are used as the X, Y, and Z axes of the coordinate system. Secondly, the coordinate system of the laser scanner 54 refers to the coordinate system used by the laser scanner 54 itself, which is usually a three-dimensional coordinate system defined with the position of the laser scanner 54 as the origin.

[0097] The method of determining whether there is a crack and obtaining the crack position and generating an alarm instruction when a crack exists includes:
[0098] For each point in the point cloud data, the local point cloud density is obtained by calculating the number of points in its neighborhood. The calculation formula is:
[0099] ;
[0100] in, For point The local density of point The number of points in the neighborhood, point The volume of the neighborhood;
[0101] It should be noted that the scope of the neighborhood can be defined in two ways:
[0102] k nearest neighbor method: choose a point , and then find the M points with the smallest distance from it. These points constitute the point 's neighborhood.
[0103] Radius Neighborhood Method: Select a Point , then select all Points whose distance does not exceed the specified radius r, these points constitute the point 's neighborhood.
[0104] Preset local density threshold, when point If the local density is lower than the preset local density threshold, it proves that cracks appear in the area, and the point The coordinates of the crack are used as the coordinates of the crack position to issue an alarm.
[0105] It should be noted that cracks usually mean a sudden interruption or rupture of the surface structure. The scanning equipment cannot fully capture the point cloud of the crack area. The point clouds on both sides of the crack are relatively sparse, forming a low-density area.
[0106] In this embodiment, the point cloud data collected by the laser scanner 54 is obtained, and the data obtained by the laser scanning is converted from the laser coordinate system to the pipeline coordinate system, and then the notch feature and crack feature analysis of the pipe mouth are performed based on the point cloud data. When the notch feature and crack feature appear, the corresponding coordinates can be obtained in time and an alarm instruction can be issued. In summary, by converting the laser scanning data from the laser coordinate system to the pipeline coordinate system and analyzing the notch feature and crack feature of the pipe mouth based on the point cloud data, it can provide many advantages in pipeline docking and daily operation, including ensuring the long-term safe operation of the pipeline through accurate defect identification and timely alarm processing, avoiding excessive maintenance or neglect of important defects, and avoiding the situation where the human eye or manual detection easily misses small defects or makes wrong judgments, and through automated point cloud analysis, defects can be found more comprehensively and accurately.
