Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipeline leak sealing technology, specifically a pipeline planar pinhole sealing device. Background Technology
[0002] Power pipelines are piping systems used to transport power media such as steam, compressed air, and nitrogen. They play a vital role in industrial production, providing power to various equipment. They typically have high pressure and temperature requirements, therefore, their design, installation, and maintenance must strictly adhere to relevant standards and specifications. During use, power pipelines require regular inspection and maintenance to ensure their safe and reliable operation.
[0003] In actual production processes, power pipelines often experience sand hole leaks due to years of erosion, severely affecting their normal operation. If the entire system is shut down for pipe repair, it disrupts normal production. Therefore, a leak-sealing device is needed to seal the pipeline. However, existing leak-sealing devices cannot maintain a stable position on the pipeline, and the sealing process is prone to displacement, affecting the sealing effect. Furthermore, the sealing process cannot be flexibly and accurately adjusted according to the location of the leak, significantly limiting the efficiency and sealing effect of the sealing operation.

Detailed Implementation
[0028] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 9A pipe surface pinhole sealing device includes a lower semi-circular clamping plate 4, a fixed shaft 21 fixed on the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4, an upper semi-circular clamping plate 3 rotatably mounted on the fixed shaft 21 and mating with the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4, a power pipe 1 passing between the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4 and the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, guide frames 11 fixed on both the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4 and the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, a transmission arc plate 7 slidably mounted on the guide frame 11, clamping arc blocks 8 opposite to the power pipe 1 mounted on both the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4 and the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, and radial sliders 14 slidably mounted on both the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4 and the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, with a drive arc plate 7 connected to the radial slider 14 for driving the clamping arc blocks 8 towards... The clamping and pushing assembly that moves toward the power pipeline 1 has a docking plate 5 installed at the end of the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4 away from the fixed shaft 21. The docking plate 5 is equipped with a driving assembly for driving the transmission arc plate 7 to slide. An extension plate I16 is fixed on the upper semicircular clamping plate 3. An angle locking assembly is connected between the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4. An extension plate II17 corresponding to the extension plate I16 is installed on the angle locking assembly. A radial adjustment assembly is installed on the upper semicircular clamping plate 3. A sealing plate 9 for sealing the sand hole 35 on the power pipeline 1 is fixed on the radial adjustment assembly. A sealing assembly extending into the sand hole 35 is installed on the radial adjustment assembly.
[0031] When sealing the pinhole 35 on the power pipeline 1 using this device, the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4 are placed on the power pipeline 1 to be sealed. Then, the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4 are closed and fixed by the angle locking component, so that the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4 encircle the power pipeline 1.
[0032] Specifically, the angle locking assembly includes a connecting strip 19 slidably mounted on the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, an extension plate II 17 fixed on the connecting strip 19, a push spring 22 fixed between the connecting strip 19 and the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, a snap-fit wedge tooth 20 fixed on the connecting strip 19, and a number of anti-return wedge teeth 18 that snap and match the snap-fit wedge teeth 20 fixed on the lower semi-circular clamping plate 4. The anti-return wedge teeth 18 are distributed around the axis of the fixed shaft 21.
[0033] During the rotation of the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 relative to the fixed shaft 21, the engaging wedge 20 rotates with the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and slides relative to the check wedge 18. Finally, under the elastic pushing action of the push spring 22, the engaging wedge 20 engages between the two check wedges 18, thereby locking the angle of the enclosed upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and lower semicircular clamping plate 4, ensuring the stability of the structure and improving the sealing effect of the subsequent sand hole 35. By adjusting the extension plate II17 to move towards the extension plate I16, the connecting strip 19 can drive the engaging wedge 20 to move out from between the check wedges 18, at which point the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and lower semicircular clamping plate 4 can be unlocked.
[0034] The clamping and pushing assembly of this device includes a locking wedge 23 fixed on the transmission arc plate 7. The wedge surface of the locking wedge 23 abuts against the radial slider 14. An extension block 25 is fixed to the side wall of the radial slider 14. A radial spring 24 is fixed between the extension block 25 and the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3. A guide slider 26 is fixed to the end of the radial slider 14 away from the locking wedge 23. The guide slider 26 is slidably embedded in the clamping arc block 8. A return spring 27 is fixedly connected between the clamping arc block 8 and the guide slider 26.
[0035] With the help of the set drive component, the transmission arc plate 7 can slide under the guidance of the guide frame 11, so that the transmission arc plate 7 drives the locking wedge block 23 to push the radial slider 14. The radial slider 14 drives the clamping arc block 8 to move towards the power pipeline 1 through the guide slider 26, thereby realizing that multiple clamping arc blocks 8 clamp and limit the power pipeline 1, which greatly improves the sealing stability and sealing operation efficiency of the sealing component for the sand hole 35.
[0036] The guide slider 26 can slide relative to the clamping block 8, which makes it convenient to adjust the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4 relative to the power pipeline 1 after the clamping block 8 is locked to the power pipeline 1. This allows the sealing component to be accurately adjusted to the position opposite to the sand hole 35, greatly improving the sealing accuracy of the sand hole 35.
[0037] In addition, the drive assembly of this device includes a push wedge 38 slidably mounted on the docking plate 5. The push wedge 38 abuts against the end of the transmission arc plate 7. A sliding assembly for driving the push wedge 38 to slide relative to the docking plate 5 is installed on the docking plate 5. The sliding assembly includes a vertical plate 6 fixed on the docking plate 5. A threaded rod 2 that is threadedly connected to the push wedge 38 is rotatably mounted on the vertical plate 6. Gear I15 and gear II37 are coaxially fixed on the two threaded rods 2 respectively. Gear I15 and gear II37 are meshed. A hand crank II36 is fixed to the end of the threaded rod 2.
[0038] When the upper semicircular clamping plate 3 and the lower semicircular clamping plate 4 are closed, the two connecting plates 5 are connected, and the gears I15 and II37 on the two threaded rods 2 are engaged. At this time, by shaking the hand crank II36 to drive one of the threaded rods 2 to rotate, the other threaded rod 2 can be rotated. This allows the two pushing wedges 38 to move towards the transmission arc plate 7 at the same time. Finally, the transmission arc plate 7 slides after being pushed, thereby driving multiple clamping arc blocks 8 to move synchronously and stably clamp the power pipe 1.
[0039] Example 2
[0040] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 9 Based on Embodiment 1, the radial adjustment component of this device includes a lifting frame 12 that is radially slidably mounted on the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3. A threaded post 13 is threadedly connected to the lifting frame 12. One end of the threaded post 13 is rotatably mounted on the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, and a hand crank 110 is fixed to the other end of the threaded post 13. A sealing plate 9 is fixed on the side of the lifting frame 12 facing the power pipeline 1.
[0041] The threaded column 13 is driven to rotate by shaking. At this time, the threaded column 13 drives the lifting frame 12 to slide relative to the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3, thereby enabling the sealing component to extend into the sand hole 35 for sealing operation. Specifically, the sealing component includes a sliding column 30 that is slidably connected to the sealing plate 9. The sliding column 30 slides through the lifting frame 12. One end of the sliding column 30 is fixed with a top plate 28. A spring ring 29 is fixed between the top plate 28 and the lifting frame 12. The other end of the sliding column 30 is fixed with a sealing cone block 32 that is opposite to the sand hole 35. A locking component for locking the position of the sliding column 30 is installed on the sealing cone block 32. The locking component includes a check trapezoidal block 31 that is slidably installed on the side wall of the extension column 33. A connecting spring 34 is fixed between the check trapezoidal block 31 and the extension column 33. The bottom of the check trapezoidal block 31 has a slope 39 that is opposite to the power pipe 1.
[0042] With the above configuration, as the lifting frame 12 moves toward the pinhole 35, the top plate 28, spring ring 29, sliding column 30, and sealing cone 32 move toward the pinhole 35, allowing the sealing cone 32 to enter the pinhole 35 for sealing. Subsequently, the lifting frame 12 continues to move, and the spring ring 29 deforms and elongates, causing the sealing cone 32 to continuously increase its pushing force on the pinhole 35 of the power pipeline 1, further ensuring the sealing effect of the pinhole 35. During this process, the sealing plate 9 moves and abuts against the outer wall of the power pipeline 1, achieving a secondary sealing effect on the power pipeline 1, and significantly improving the leak-stopping effect of the power pipeline 1.
[0043] During the process of the sealing cone 32 and the extension column 33 extending into the power pipeline 1, the slope 39 of the check trapezoidal block 31 pushes against the power pipeline 1 and slides towards the extension column 33. When the check trapezoidal block 31 passes the side wall of the power pipeline 1, under the elastic reset action of the connecting spring 34, the check trapezoidal block 31 resets and abuts against the inner wall of the power pipeline 1, thereby locking the sealing cone 32 onto the power pipeline 1 and ensuring effective sealing and plugging of the sand hole 35.
[0044] In summary, this invention uses an upper semi-circular clamping plate 3 and a lower semi-circular clamping plate 4 that are connected and fitted onto the power pipeline 1. A clamping and pushing assembly drives multiple clamping arc blocks 8 to fix and limit the power pipeline 1. Simultaneously, the upper semi-circular clamping plate 3 can slide circumferentially relative to the clamping arc blocks 8, allowing the sealing plate 9 and sealing assembly to stably and quickly connect with the pinhole 35, greatly improving the sealing efficiency and accuracy of the pinhole 35. In this invention, a sealing cone 32 first extends into the pinhole 35, and a locking assembly locks the position of the sealing cone 32, ensuring that the sealing cone 32 tightly fills the pinhole 35. Then, the sealing plate 9 moves down and adheres to the outer wall of the power pipeline 1 for secondary sealing, significantly improving the leak-stopping effect of the pinhole 35.
