Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of large-diameter pipelines, and particularly to a large-diameter flexible conveying pipeline and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Flexible composite pipelines are a kind of pipeline system composed of different materials, usually consisting of an internal medium conveying layer, a reinforcing layer and a protective layer. These different layers cooperate with each other to make the pipeline have high strength and durability. Flexible composite pipelines have the advantages of light weight, low thermal conductivity, convenient installation and maintenance, etc. Their flexibility and bendability make them suitable for complex terrains and environments where it is difficult to lay traditional pipelines. Therefore, flexible composite pipelines are widely used in fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, water supply, drainage and gas transmission.
[0003] CN201507728U discloses a continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite pipeline, belonging to the technical field of double-layer pipes. It has at least three layers of structure, and in each layer, a thermoplastic resin is used as the matrix. With continuous fibers or their fabrics with different contents as the reinforcing materials, the continuous fibers or their fabrics are laid in longitudinal, winding and weaving ways. This composite pipeline can improve and enhance impact resistance, aging resistance and temperature resistance, and has more excellent mechanical properties.
[0004] CN213479408U discloses a high-barrier flexible composite pipe, including an inner lining layer, a reinforcing layer and an outer pipe layer. An anti-gas permeation membrane is arranged between the inner lining layer and the reinforcing layer and / or between the reinforcing layer and the outer pipe layer. The anti-gas permeation membrane is a metal sheet layer with a thickness of not less than 0.04 mm, and the metal sheet layer includes but is not limited to aluminum foil, stainless steel thin sheet, or the anti-gas permeation membrane is a non-metal sheet layer composed of at least one isolation layer made of nylon, PVDF, EVOH or POK plastic and protective layers made of polyethylene respectively located on both sides of the isolation layer. This high-barrier flexible composite pipe has the characteristics of high pressure-bearing structural strength, good coiling flexibility, tight anti-gas permeation and long service life.
[0005] CN211624464U discloses a large-diameter flexible composite pipe, which includes an inner pipe, a warp belt, a reinforcing layer and an outer pipe. The warp belt is arranged on the outer surface of the inner pipe along the axial direction parallel to the inner pipe. The reinforcing layer is wound around the warp belt, and the outer pipe is wrapped around the reinforcing layer. The large-diameter flexible composite pipe adds a warp belt layer between the inner pipe and the reinforcing layer, improving the pressure resistance, tensile resistance, oil resistance, corrosion resistance and long service life of the composite pipe. The composite pipe simplifies the winding method, has no special requirements for the winding angle, and one winding tape can solve the one-layer or multi-layer winding structure in the same direction; any metal and non-metal reinforcing strips and wires can be used for winding, and winding tapes of any width can be used, with a wide range of applications; the inner pipe and the outer pipe are not limited to extruded pipes, and are also applicable to the inner pipe sealing layer and the outer pipe protection layer formed by strip winding; the equipment requirements are simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to implement.
[0006] CN201507728U realizes the fiber reinforcement of polyolefin pipes, which can be coiled and transported at a DN200mm diameter, but it is difficult to coil for larger diameters.
[0007] CN211624464U solves the problem of large-diameter pipe processing, but still cannot be coiled.
