Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of pipeline welding, and in particular to a pipeline welding protection device and a pipeline welding protection method thereof. Background Art
[0002] At present, during the pipeline laying and maintenance and rectification stage, it is often necessary to weld stainless steel pipes and stainless steel flanges. Due to the great affinity between stainless steel and oxygen medium, the weld metal of the stainless steel pipe is easily oxidized during the welding process. Therefore, effective weld protection measures need to be taken during welding, otherwise the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the weld metal will be reduced.
[0003] Under the current circumstances, in the maintenance work of chemical plants, since welding is a high-temperature hot work, when welding the welds of flammable and explosive medium pipelines and flanges, if there is flammable and explosive medium leakage in the upstream pipeline of the welding point.
[0004] The above-mentioned existing technical solutions have the following defects: during the welding process of the pipeline and the flange, the flammable and explosive medium leaking from the pipeline overflows and contacts the high-temperature weld or the sparks generated by the welding, posing a safety hazard of explosion, which is not conducive to the welding work of the pipeline. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to ensure the quality of pipeline welding and improve the safety of welding processing, the present application provides a pipeline welding protection device and a pipeline welding protection method.
[0006] On the one hand, the above technical objectives of this application are achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A pipeline welding protection device and pipeline welding protection method thereof, comprising a mounting cylinder having an open end and a closed end at its two ends, a fixed cylinder having one end fixedly connected to the inner wall of the closed end of the mounting cylinder and arranged coaxially, a mounting plate in the form of a circular plate, one plate surface of which is coaxially fixedly connected to the fixed cylinder near the open end and spaced apart from the open end, a sealing gasket provided on the plate surface of the mounting plate on a side facing away from the fixed cylinder, a sealing assembly slidably provided on the outer wall of the fixed cylinder and having one end slidably provided outside the closed end, a first locking member provided on the outer wall of the closed end, and a second locking member provided on one end of the sealing assembly located outside the closed end;
[0008] The sealing gasket includes a circular pad portion fixed to the mounting plate and a convex edge portion integrally formed on the side of the circular pad portion facing the mounting tube, wherein the convex edge portion is spaced apart from the plate surface of the mounting plate and the open end of the mounting tube;
[0009] The sealing assembly includes a first driving member and a second driving member that are slidably arranged, and a plurality of sealing blocks that are respectively hinged to the first driving member and the second driving member near one end of the flange portion. The plurality of sealing blocks can form a circular ring seal and can slide between the flange portion and the open end and can be tightly pressed against the flange portion.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, before welding the pipeline, the end of the protective device provided with the sealing gasket is first placed into the interior of the pipeline from the pipe mouth, and the end of the sealing assembly away from the sealing gasket is located at the pipe mouth. When the sealing gasket is placed in the pipeline to be welded, the outer peripheral wall of the flange portion is pressed against the inner wall of the pipeline to be welded and the flange portion is squeezed. Then, the locking of the first locking member on the first driving member and the locking of the second locking member on the second driving member are respectively released, and the first driving member and the second driving member are pushed toward the flange portion in turn. Then, the first driving member and the second driving member are locked by the first locking member and the second locking member in turn, so that the multiple sealing blocks can be stably pressed against the flange portion and squeeze the flange portion in the horizontal direction. Combined with the squeezing of the inner wall of the pipeline to be welded on the radial direction of the flange portion, the sealing performance of the flange portion and the inner wall of the pipeline to be welded can be effectively improved, and the possibility of gas leakage upstream of the pipeline to be welded can be reduced. Finally, inert gas is filled from the pipe mouth to the direction of the sealing block, and then the flange is welded to the pipe mouth of the pipeline to be welded, thereby ensuring the quality of pipeline welding and improving the safety of the connection work.
[0011] Optionally, the convex edge portion is processed from its outer diameter to the direction of its inner diameter to form a slope;
[0012] The sealing block is processed with a first arc-shaped surface which can be fitted with the inclined surface of the convex edge portion.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined surface can effectively increase the release area between the sealing block and the flange, while also reducing the thickness of the flange. After the sealing block is pressed against the flange, the flange is more likely to deform, which can further improve the sealing performance of the flange to the inner wall of the pipe.
[0014] Optionally, the inner diameter of the flange portion is consistent with the outer diameter of the mounting plate.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the inner wall of the convex edge is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting plate, so that the mounting plate forms support for the convex edge in the direction of the inner wall of the pipe to be welded, and is conducive to the convex edge and the inner wall of the pipe to be welded to be tightly pressed, which is conducive to improving the sealing of the convex edge against the inner wall of the pipe to be welded.
[0016] Optionally, the first driving member includes a connecting plate arranged outside the closed end and in a circular ring shape, and a first sliding rod with one end fixed to the connecting plate and slidably arranged on the outer wall of the fixed cylinder. There are at least two first sliding rods, and the sealing block is hinged to one end of the first sliding rod close to the flange and can be received in the mounting cylinder.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, within the limited space of the installation tube, the first slide rod can be pushed from the space outside the closed end of the installation tube, which is beneficial for the first slide rod to drive the sealing block to press against the convex edge.
[0018] Optionally, the first driving member includes a connecting tube fixed to the outer wall of the closed end and sleeved on the outer wall of the first sliding rod, a driving rod rotatably arranged in the connecting tube, an insertion rod fixed to one end of the driving rod and located in the connecting tube, and a spring fixed to the driving rod and the other end of which abuts against the inner wall of the connecting tube, the spring and the insertion rod are respectively located on opposite sides of the same end of the driving rod, and the end of the insertion rod away from the spring can be plugged into the first sliding rod.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring can rely on its own elastic force to stably insert the insertion rod into the socket, thereby locking the first sliding rod. When the locking relationship needs to be released, the driving rod is pressed away from one end of the insertion rod, so that the driving rod compresses the spring, thereby facilitating the insertion rod to disengage from the socket.
[0020] Optionally, two insertion holes are provided on the first sliding rod. When the sealing block is pressed against the convex edge, the insertion rod is inserted into one of the insertion holes. When the sealing block is located in the installation tube, the insertion rod is inserted into the other insertion hole.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the effective working state and the idle state of the first sliding rod are locked respectively.
[0022] Optionally, the second driving member includes a telescopic rod slidably inserted on the connecting plate, and a second sliding rod fixed to the telescopic rod and spaced apart from the telescopic rod. There are at least two second sliding rods and they are spaced apart from the first sliding rod in sequence. The sealing block is hinged to one end of the second sliding rod close to the flange and can be received in the mounting tube.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the second sliding rod can accommodate the sealing block in the installation cylinder, and is also conducive to forming a circular ring-shaped sealing member with multiple sealing blocks.
[0024] Optionally, the second locking member includes a mounting tube fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate facing away from the closed end of the mounting tube, a rotating rod eccentrically arranged on the outer wall of the mounting tube, and a locking block movably arranged in the mounting tube and abutting against the outer peripheral surface of the rotating rod. The telescopic rod is slidably arranged in the mounting tube, and the locking block can be tightly pressed against the telescopic rod.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, while not hindering the telescopic rod from driving the sealing block to move, it is also convenient to lock the position of the telescopic rod and the connecting plate. The overall structure of the second locking piece is simple and easy to operate, and it can also form a stable locking connection between the connecting plate and the telescopic rod.
[0026] Optionally, the outer wall of the locking block is processed into an arc-shaped convex surface, and a locking groove is opened on the outer wall of the telescopic rod along its length direction. The notch of the locking groove is an arc-shaped concave surface and can be tightly pressed against the arc-shaped convex surface of the locking block.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the arcuate surface can increase the contact area between the two, thereby increasing the static friction between the two, thereby improving the locking stability of the locking block on the telescopic rod.
[0028] On the other hand, this application also provides the following technical solutions:
[0029] A pipeline welding protection method includes the following steps:
[0030] Step 1: Place the protective device as a whole into the pipe to be welded from the pipe opening of the pipe to be welded;
[0031] Step 2: Release the lock of the telescopic rod by the second locking assembly;
[0032] Step 3: Push the connecting plate until the sealing block is pressed against the convex edge;
[0033] Step 4: After the sealing block is pressed against the convex edge, insert the insertion rod into the insertion hole away from the sealing block;
[0034] Step 5: Push the telescopic rod until the sealing block touches the convex edge;
[0035] Step 6: Move the operating panel so that the locking block locks the telescopic rod and the connecting plate;
[0036] Step 7: Blow inert gas into the sealing block from the pipe mouth of the pipe to be welded.
[0037] In summary, this application has the following technical effects:
[0038] 1. By providing an installation cylinder, a fixing cylinder, a mounting plate, a sealing gasket, a sealing assembly, a first locking piece, and a second locking piece, when the sealing gasket is placed in the pipe to be welded, the outer peripheral wall of the convex edge portion is pressed against the inner wall of the pipe to be welded and the convex edge portion is squeezed, and then the locking piece is released from the locking piece to the driving piece, and the first driving piece and the second driving piece are pushed toward the convex edge portion in sequence, and then the driving piece is locked by the locking piece in sequence, so that the multiple sealing blocks can be stably pressed against the convex edge portion and squeeze the convex edge portion in the horizontal direction, and cooperate with the squeezing of the inner wall of the pipe to be welded on the radial direction of the convex edge portion, which can effectively improve the sealing performance of the convex edge portion and the inner wall of the pipe to be welded, and reduce the possibility of gas leakage in the upstream of the pipe to be welded, and finally fill in inert gas from the pipe orifice to the pipe to be welded in the direction of the sealing block, and then start welding the flange to the pipe orifice to be welded, thereby ensuring the quality of pipeline welding and improving the safety of the joint work;
[0039] 2. By providing a beveled surface on the convex edge, the release area between the sealing block and the convex edge can be effectively increased while reducing the thickness of the convex edge. When the sealing block is pressed against the convex edge, the convex edge is more likely to deform, which can further improve the sealing performance of the convex edge against the inner wall of the pipe.
[0040] 3. By setting the inner diameter of the flange to be consistent with the outer diameter of the mounting plate, the inner wall of the flange is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the mounting plate, so that the mounting plate can support the flange in the direction of the inner wall of the pipe to be welded, and facilitate the flange to be tightly pressed against the inner wall of the pipe to be welded, thereby improving the sealing performance of the flange against the inner wall of the pipe to be welded.

[0071] Step 2: Release the lock of the telescopic rod 521 by the second locking assembly, so as to facilitate the first driving member 51 to push the sealing block 54 into the pipe to be welded;
[0072] Step 3: Push the connecting plate 511 until the sealing block 54 is pressed against the flange 42 to further improve the sealing performance of the flange 42;
[0073] Step 4: After the sealing block 54 is pressed against the flange 42 , the insertion rod 64 is inserted into the insertion hole 5121 away from the sealing block 54 , thereby positioning the first driving member 51 as a whole and ensuring that the sealing block 54 is stably pressed against the flange 42 ;
[0074] Step 5: Push the telescopic rod 521 until the sealing block 54 is pressed against the flange 42 , so that all the sealing blocks 54 form a seal, improving the sealing performance of the flange 42 as a whole.
[0075] Step 6: Move the operating plate 74 so that the locking block 75 locks the telescopic rod 521 and the connecting plate 511. After locking the telescopic rod 521, it is ensured that it is completely pressed against the flange 42, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the internal sealing of the pipe to be welded;
[0076] Step 7: Blow an inert gas, such as an inert gas or a mixed gas, into the sealing block 54 from the pipe mouth of the pipe to be welded. Argon or helium can be used as the inert gas, and argon carbon dioxide can be used as the mixed gas. Inert gases (argon and helium) do not chemically react with the metal during the welding process, can effectively isolate the air, and prevent oxidation of the molten pool. They are particularly suitable for welding metals such as stainless steel and titanium alloys. Because argon has a low boiling point (-186°C) and a density slightly higher than that of air, it can quickly vaporize to form a dense protective layer that covers the welding area and reduces deformation. Argon carbon dioxide mixtures can maintain the inert protection effect while adjusting the penetration depth and spatter control through binary or ternary ratios (such as Ar+He+CO2). For example, Ar+10%-20% CO2 mixtures are commonly used in carbon steel welding, which can not only improve arc stability but also reduce alloy element burnout.
