[0045] The cooperation between the right-end limiting structure 1.6 of the pipe and the left-end limiting structure 1.1 of the pipe facilitates, on the one hand, the lifting and placing of the large-diameter circular pipe on the two groups of left support roller groups 1.2 and the two groups of right support roller groups 1.5, and on the other hand, during the grinding process, axial limiting of the large-diameter circular pipe can be achieved.

[0046] The grinding actuator 2 mainly includes a grinder 2.1, a force control actuator 2.2, a support arm 2.3, and a frame 2.4.

[0051] Embodiment:

[0052] Apply the inner wall grinding equipment for large-diameter circular pipes to a large-diameter circular pipe with an inner diameter of 740 mm and a length of 2100 mm. It can complete the grinding of one large-diameter circular pipe within 40 minutes, making the inner wall of the circular pipe smooth due to the grinding of the bumps and defects caused by processing. In the existing manual grinding method, it takes at least 3 hours for a single person to complete the grinding of one large-diameter circular pipe of the same specification, and in addition, it is difficult to guarantee the grinding quality. Compared with the existing manual grinding method, the grinding equipment of the present invention can greatly improve the grinding efficiency and grinding quality.

Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the content disclosed in the embodiments and drawings.
