Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pipeline welding, and particularly relates to a protection device for a cable interface of a ductile iron pipeline welding machine and a using method thereof. Background Art

[0002] During the casting process of ductile iron pipelines, small holes are drilled in the core of the socket plug to form impact points on the end face of the socket of the cast pipeline. In the subsequent cement internal coating process, cement is injected into the rapidly rotating ductile iron pipeline, and the cement then covers the inner wall of the pipeline under the action of centrifugal force. The existence of the impact points causes the cast iron pipe to vibrate violently during centrifugal rotation, and the resulting vibration force enables the cement to adhere to the inner wall of the pipeline better and more evenly, effectively reducing the occurrence of quality accidents caused by subsequent shedding of the inner lining cement.

[0003] Due to poor core hole opening, poor casting, or collision during the transportation of ductile iron pipelines, these factors may cause the impact points to fall off before reaching the cement internal coating process. Therefore, it is necessary to weld and repair the pipelines lacking impact points before internal coating, and manually add the impact points again. During the use of on-site welding repair electric welders, due to frequent repeated pulling of the cables, the cable quick plugs inserted into the cable interfaces are easily loosened, and the plastic sheaths at the tails of the quick plugs are also easily damaged, resulting in abnormal operation of the welder and posing safety hazards.

[0026] The protection device for the cable interface of the ductile iron pipe welding machine according to the present invention includes a first connection part 1 and a second connection part 2. The first connection part 1 and the second connection part 2 are fixedly connected. The first connection part 1 is detachably connected to the welding machine cable interface, and the second connection part 2 is detachably connected to the cable quick plug, so as to fix the relative positions between the welding machine cable interface and the cable quick plug, and avoid the disconnection between the welding machine cable interface and the cable quick plug during the repeated pulling of the cable.

[0027] Specifically, the first connection part 1 includes a base 11 and a pressing plate 12. Both the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 are set as semi-circular ring structures. The base 11 and the pressing plate 12 are coaxially arranged, and one end of the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 is connected by a first connection component 13, and the other end of the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 is connected by a second connection component 14, so that the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 can be combined into an integral ring structure. The second connection part 2 is fixedly arranged on the base 11. By symmetrically arranging the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 on the outer bulge of the welding machine cable interface, and fixedly connecting the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 through the first connection component 13 and the second connection component 14 to clamp and fix the welding machine cable interface, the first connection part 1 is detachably connected to the welding machine cable interface.

[0028] The second connection part 2 includes a fixing plate 21 and a binding band. The fixing plate 21 extends linearly parallel to the axis of the base 11.

The cable quick plug or the cable is arranged in the fitting groove 22, and the cable quick plug or the cable is tied to the fixing plate 21 by the binding band, so as to realize the detachable connection of the second connection part 2 to the cable quick plug.

[0029] Preferably, the cross-section of the fitting groove 22 is arc-shaped, which is convenient for the fitting groove 22 to fit with the cable quick plug. Generally, the axis of the fitting groove 22 is consistent with the axis of the base 11, so as to ensure that after the first connection part 1 and the second connection part 2 respectively connect and fix the welding machine cable interface and the cable quick plug, the welding machine cable interface and the cable quick plug are coaxial.

[0030] The length of the fixed plate 21 is generally longer than that of the cable quick plug, so as to protect the plastic shield at the tail of the cable quick plug from being damaged by force.

[0031] Preferably, flexible fitting layers 15 are provided on the inner ring surfaces of the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 and on the groove walls of the fitting groove 22. The flexible fitting layers 15 are made of rubber material, so as to ensure flexible fitting of the welding machine cable interface and the cable quick plug, and at the same time increase the contact area to reduce the relative movement between the first connection part and the welding machine cable interface, and between the second connection part 2 and the cable quick plug, and ensure the stable positions of the welding machine cable interface and the cable quick plug on the present invention.

[0032] The structure of the present invention is compact and easy to install. During the daily use of the welding machine by the operator to pull the cable, the cable quick plug is firmly protected from loosening, ensuring that the welding machine can work normally for a long time and protecting the personal safety of the welding machine operator.

[0036] Connected in this way, the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 can be pulled apart along the connection shaft 132, so as to open the distance between the base 11 and the pressing plate 12 for sleeving and installing on the welding machine cable interface.

[0037] The second connecting component 14 includes two movable connecting blocks 141 which are respectively arranged at the ends of the base 11 and the pressing plate 12.
