Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipe joint polishing technology, and in particular to polishing fixtures for gas pipe joints. Background Technology

[0002] Gas pipeline joint polishing refers to the surface treatment process of gas pipeline connection parts. The purpose is to remove burrs, oxide layers and unevenness, improve surface smoothness, and ensure sealing and connection strength. It is usually achieved by mechanical or chemical methods and is an important process in pipeline installation and maintenance. Currently, polishing fixtures are required to clamp and fix the gas pipeline joints during the polishing process.

[0003] Existing gas pipeline joint polishing fixtures typically include a fixed base, a clamp for holding the joint, and a polishing wheel driven by a drive mechanism. The polishing wheel is positioned on one side of the joint to polish that side of the surface.

[0004] When polishing the entire circumferential surface of a pipe joint, after polishing one side of the joint, it must be removed from the fixture, its orientation adjusted, and then re-clamped before the unpolished other side can be processed. This repeated disassembly and reassembly not only increases the labor intensity and working time of the workers, resulting in low polishing efficiency, but also makes it difficult to obtain a uniform polishing quality on the entire joint surface due to the slight positional deviation that may occur with each clamping, which is not conducive to its use. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0007] Therefore, the problem that this invention aims to solve is that the existing gas pipe joint polishing fixture does not have an automatic orientation adjustment function.

The installation sleeve can limit the limiting tube, prevent it from shaking during movement, and improve the stability of the friction plate during movement.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The automatic flipping component design utilizes a servo motor to control the screw rotation, causing the threaded sleeve to move the extrusion roller, thereby adjusting the clamping position of the pipe joint. When the drive motor controls the rotating shaft to rotate, the pipe joint can automatically flip, eliminating the need for disassembly and re-clamping. This reduces the labor intensity of workers, improves polishing efficiency, and ensures the uniformity of the polishing quality of the joint surface, avoiding positional deviations caused by repeated clamping.

[0030] A dustproof mechanism 10 is provided on the rear side of the base 1. The dustproof mechanism 10 includes a collection shell 101. The front side of the collection shell 101 extends to the front side of the base 1. A filter element 102 is provided in the inner cavity of the collection shell 101. The rear side of the filter element 102 extends through the collection shell 101 and is fixedly connected to a sealing plate. An installation plate 103 is fixedly connected between the two sides of the inner cavity of the collection shell 101. A fan 104 is connected to the top of the installation plate 103. An exhaust pipe 105 is connected to the right side of the collection shell 101. An movable opening for use with the filter element 102 is opened on the rear side of the collection shell 101.

[0031] The collection shell 101 collects the metal dust generated during the polishing process, the filter element 102 filters the metal dust in the air, the mounting plate 103 facilitates the installation and fixing of the exhaust fan 104, the exhaust fan 104 delivers external air to the inside of the collection shell 101 and delivers the filtered air to the exhaust pipe 105, the exhaust pipe 105 delivers airflow to the front of the control shell 2 to push the dust generated during the polishing process into the inside of the collection shell 101, the movable opening facilitates the installation and fixing of the filter element 102, the sealing plate seals the movable opening, and the bolt fixing facilitates the cleaning or replacement of the filter element 102 by the staff.

[0032] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When polishing a gas pipeline joint is required, the joint is first placed on the surface of the extrusion roller 54. The servo motor 51 is started, and the servo motor 51 drives the screw 52 to rotate, causing the threaded sleeve 53 to push the extrusion roller 54 closer to the rotating shaft 4, clamping and fixing the joint. Then, the drive motor 3 is started, and the drive motor 3 drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, causing the joint to rotate accordingly. The polishing equipment polishes the surface of the joint. After one side of the joint is polished, the drive motor 3 continues to work, and the rotating shaft 4 drives the joint to automatically flip, so that the unpolished surface faces the polishing equipment. No disassembly or re-clamping is required, achieving continuous polishing and improving work efficiency. During the polishing process... If it is necessary to fix the joint position, the electric cylinder 62 can be activated. The electric cylinder 62 pushes the pressing block 63 to press down the slope block 64. The slope block 64 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 65 and moves to the left, driving the connecting arm 66 to push the friction plate 67 to make close contact with the rotating shaft 4, generating friction to prevent the rotating shaft 4 from rotating, thereby locking the joint and ensuring polishing accuracy. The metal dust generated during polishing is sucked into the collection shell 101 by the exhaust fan 104. After the air is filtered by the filter element 102, the dust is trapped in the collection shell 101. The clean air is discharged through the exhaust pipe 105. The generated airflow pushes the dust to the inlet of the collection shell 101, making it easy for it to be sucked into its interior for filtration, keeping the working environment clean.
