TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of workpiece water pressure test, and particularly relates to a back-embedded post-pull welding end sealing device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Water pressure test is a core inspection process before workpiece delivery, which detects the sealing performance and pressure resistance of the weld and base material by filling high-pressure water into the workpiece, directly verifies whether the welding quality meets the standard, and only the workpiece passing the water pressure test can be confirmed to be free of defects such as pores and cracks, thereby ensuring the safety in subsequent use. However, in order to ensure welding accuracy and subsequent assembly compatibility, some workpieces do not have flanges, bolt holes or other connecting structures on the welding end face, which directly challenges the sealing process of water pressure test.
[0003] There are three sealing methods for welding ends without preset connecting structures, one is temporary flange sealing, which assembles a sealing plate after welding a temporary flange on the welding end of the workpiece, and cuts and removes it after the test; the second is a binding type of tight sealing, which realizes plugging by squeezing a sealing gasket around the outside of the workpiece through a metal hoop or a rope; the third is a bonding type of sealing, which bonds and fixes the sealing gasket to the welding end face by using sealing glue.

Detailed Implementation
[0037] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.
[0038] Example 1:
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 5 A back-embedded back-pull-out welding end sealing device includes a workpiece 1, a sealing component, an overload component, and a replacement component; the sealing component is installed at the welding end opening of the workpiece 1, the welding end opening of the workpiece 1 has a protrusion, the workpiece 1 is provided with a sealing plate 4, the sealing plate 4 is provided with a plug 17, the plug 17 is provided with an O-ring 7 to enhance the sealing effect between the plug 17 and the workpiece 1, and a nylon gasket 6 is slidably connected in the sealing plate 4 to directly fit the welding end face of the workpiece 1 to achieve sealing.
[0040] The sealing assembly is used to seal the weld end face of workpiece 1;
[0041] The overload component is used to warn and remind workpiece 1 that the internal pressure is too high;
[0042] The replacement component is used to periodically replace the nylon gasket 6, thereby ensuring the sealing of the weld end of workpiece 1.
[0043] The sealing assembly includes two semi-circular retaining rings 3, two bolts 5, and a retaining ring 2. The retaining ring 2 is fitted onto the workpiece 1 and serves to support the semi-circular retaining rings 3 and connect the sealing plate 4. The two semi-circular retaining rings 3 are respectively set inside the retaining ring 2. The retaining ring 2 is provided with a slot, and the two semi-circular retaining rings 3 are respectively engaged in the slot of the retaining ring 2 to achieve the positioning and installation of the semi-circular retaining rings 3. The bolts 5 are slidably connected to the retaining ring 2 and the sealing plate 4. The tension force is transmitted by tightening the bolts 5. The two semi-circular retaining rings 3 are tightly attached to the protrusion at the weld end opening of the workpiece 1 through the bolts 5 to form a temporary fixed base to compress the sealing surface. The bolts 5 are provided with a circular groove 19, and the two bolts 5 are respectively provided with a residue cleaning component.
[0044] In this embodiment, the retaining ring 2 is first fitted onto the workpiece 1, and then two semi-circular retaining rings 3 are snapped into the retaining ring 2 slots. The bolts 5 are passed through the retaining rings 2 and connected to the sealing plate 4. At the same time, the rotating rod 10 passes through the arc knife 11 and is snapped in place. Then, the bolts 5 are tightened to make the semi-circular retaining rings 3 fit tightly against the weld end protrusion of the workpiece 1. Meanwhile, the O-ring 7 and nylon washer 6 in the sealing plate 4 fit against the weld end face of the workpiece 1. The end face sealing plate 4 is tightened by the bolts 5 to pull the retaining ring 2 and tighten and fix the end face sealing plate 4 to achieve the end face sealing effect. At the same time, the tooling assembly efficiency is improved and the unstable factors of the sealing tooling are eliminated.
[0045] Example 2:
[0046] Unlike Example 1, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This embodiment also has the following further features:
[0047] The overload assembly includes two rotating rods 10, two contact sensors 14, and an alarm 8. The two rotating rods 10 are slidably connected inside the sealing plate 4 and can slide synchronously with the pressure displacement of the sealing plate 4. They can also rotate under the rotation of the gear 20. The two contact sensors 14 are fixedly installed on two semi-circular retaining rings 3 to sense changes in the contact state of the rotating rods 10. The alarm 8 is fixedly installed on the sealing plate 4 to receive signals and issue an overload alarm. One end of each of the two rotating rods 10 is in contact with the two contact sensors 14, forming a pressure sensing linkage structure. The contact sensors 14 send signals to the control system to cause the alarm 8 to sound an alarm, realizing the warning feedback of pressure overload.
[0048] In this embodiment, when the bolt 5 is tightened, at the same time, one end of the rotating rod 10 contacts the contact sensor 14. When the internal pressure of the workpiece 1 is too high, the pressure pushes the sealing plate 4 to produce a slight displacement, which drives the rotating rod 10 to move synchronously. Thus, the contact between the rotating rod 10 and the contact sensor 14 is released, and the contact sensor 14 sends a signal to the control system. The control system then causes the alarm 8 to sound an alarm to remind that the internal pressure of the workpiece 1 is too high, so as to avoid safety hazards such as deformation of the workpiece 1, damage to the sealing device, or leakage of high-pressure medium due to excessive pressure.
[0049] Example 3:
[0050] Reference Figures 6 to 9 Compared to Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, in this embodiment:
[0051] The replacement components include a knob 9, a threaded surface 16, and a pressure ring 15. The threaded surface 16 is set on the plug 17, and the pressure ring 15 is slidably connected to the threaded surface 16, achieving axial sliding through threaded transmission. The knob 9 is rotatably connected to the sealing plate 4 and fixedly connected to the plug 17. Rotating the knob 9 can drive the plug 17 to rotate synchronously. One end of the nylon washer 6 is attached to the weld end face of the workpiece 1, and the other end is attached to the pressure ring 15. The pressure ring 15 presses the nylon washer 6 to achieve a seal.
[0052] The residue removal assembly includes two arc blades 11, a gear ring 12, and a gear 20. The gear 20 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 10 and slidably connected in the circular groove 19, which limits the movement trajectory of the gear 20. The gear ring 12 is rotatably connected in the circular groove 19, providing a meshing transmission carrier for the gear 20. The arc blades 11 are rotatably connected in the sealing plate 4 and can rotate around the connection point to scrape away impurities.
[0053] Gear 20 meshes with gear ring 12 to transmit power. A torsion spring is provided at the connection between arc blade 11 and sealing plate 4 to provide a reset force for arc blade 11. At the same time, when bolt 5 is tightened, since the rotating rod 10 on gear 20 is engaged with arc blade 11 and gear 20 is meshed with gear ring 12, it can prevent gear ring 12 from easily shaking as bolt 5 rotates. Gear ring 12 is provided with two sockets 21 for engaging so that gear ring 12 can rotate with bolt 5. The protruding part of rotating rod 10 is engaged with arc blade 11, which can drive arc blade 11 to rotate synchronously.
[0054] Two connecting rods 13 are slidably connected to the bolt 5, and can slide along the axial direction of the bolt 5. One end of the connecting rod 13 is fixedly connected to a push block 18. Pressing the push block 18 drives the connecting rod 13 to move. A spring 22 is fixedly connected between the push block 18 and the bolt 5 to provide a restoring force for the push block 18 and the connecting rod 13. The spring 22 is sleeved on the connecting rod 13 to limit the installation position of the spring 22 and prevent displacement.
[0055] In this embodiment, the bolt 5 is loosened to expose the plug 17. Then, the push block 18 is pressed to drive the connecting rod 13 into the socket 21. At the same time, the bolt 5 is continuously turned back and forth, which drives the gear ring 12 to rotate. The gear ring 12 drives the gear 20 and the rotating rod 10 to rotate. During the rotation, the arc blade 11, which is engaged with the rotating rod 10, scrapes off the welding slag and impurities of the nylon gasket 6 on the sealing surface, avoiding problems such as poor sealing and medium leakage during high-pressure testing caused by impurities. At the same time, it can scrape off the damaged nylon gasket 6. After the damaged nylon gasket 6 is scraped off, the plug 17 is rotated by turning the knob 9, which causes the pressure ring 15 on the threaded surface 16 to press the nylon gasket 6 downward and slide it, so that the new nylon gasket 6 is exposed on the sealing plate 4. The replacement is completed, avoiding the cumbersome operation of disassembling the entire device in the traditional way, reducing replacement time and improving maintenance efficiency.
[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
