Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of on-site installation technology, in particular to a kind of assembling method for improving the installation precision and speed of steel pipe node plate. BACKGROUND

[0002] The main body of iron tower and space truss structure is mainly composed of steel pipes. Such structures have high strength, good plasticity and processability, superior seismic resistance, convenient construction and good economy, and are widely used in the field of construction.

[0003] The components of iron tower and space truss structure are connected by multiple rods and have uniform angles. The rod joint forms between layers are the same during production. The through-hole rate of rod connecting bolts is required to be high during installation. The through-hole rate also determines the installation quality of the entire main body during the installation process. Therefore, the size and angle positioning of the node plate at each node position are particularly important.

[0004] In the past, when assembling steel pipe nodes, workers measured and determined the installation angle of the node plate according to the template and then positioned it. Manual measurement can easily cause the node plate to move, resulting in a certain misalignment deviation in the up-down position of the node plate, which affects the installation of the rod. The cumulative error is too large to effectively control the size, thereby reducing the overall installation quality. In addition, during high-altitude installation, due to the large size deviation, personnel adjustment at high altitude will increase the construction measure investment, increase the construction difficulty and high-altitude operation risk. Therefore, we propose a kind of assembling method for improving the installation precision and speed of steel pipe node plate. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a kind of assembling method for improving the installation precision and speed of steel pipe node plate to solve the problems raised in the background art.

After installation is completed, check the flatness of the fixed frame; 3) Fix the combined plate on the fixing frame, fix the center line positioning ruler on both ends of the fixing frame, and install the node plate positioning plate between the two fixing frames; Step three, node plate positioning measurement and assembly: First step: Place the steel pipe on the positioning frame, and draw the main pipe center line on the outer wall of the pipe; Second step: Determine the positioning point at one end of the steel pipe, and measure and mark the node plate positioning size according to the positioning point; Third step: Place the positioning device on the pipe, make the center line positioning rulers at both ends of the positioning frame coincide with the pipe center line, determine the node plate installation direction, place the node plate on the positioning device, and make the node plate close to the node plate positioning plate for welding positioning. After the flange and node plate of the entire steel pipe are positioned, move to other fixing devices for welding work. This fixing device continues the flange and node plate assembly work of the next group of steel pipes.

[0007] Preferably, the installation site required by the ground fixing device should meet the operation space required by at least one ground fixing device, and the site should be hardened to ensure the stability and flatness of the fixing device.

[0009] Preferably, the positioning column is adjusted according to the pipe diameter and length during installation to avoid serious deformation of the steel pipe due to too large spacing between adjacent two positioning columns, which affects the positioning and installation of the node plate.

[0010] Preferably, all positioning columns ensure that the entire jig frame remains on the same horizontal plane and the same straight line, thereby ensuring the flatness of the placed steel pipe.

[0011] Preferably, the steel pipe component is placed on the positioning column, the center line is drawn on the outer wall of the steel pipe, the positioning point at one end of the steel pipe is determined, the node plate positioning size is measured and marked according to the positioning point, the node plate assembly position is determined, the positioning device is placed on the pipe, the center line positioning ruler is made to coincide with the pipe center line, the node plate installation direction is determined, the node plate is placed on the positioning device, and the node plate is welded and positioned by closely approaching the node plate positioning plate. After the flange and node plate of the entire steel pipe are positioned, move to other fixing devices for welding work.
