Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] like Figures 1-8 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic screwing device for oil casing and anti-corrosion oil pipe thread protectors, comprising: refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 The proximity component 4 is used to provide the function of moving closer to each other. The proximity component 4 includes a proximity housing 401, a proximity screw 404 is rotatably connected inside the proximity housing 401, a proximity handle 405 is fixedly connected to one end of the proximity screw 404, a proximity channel 402 is provided on the proximity housing 401, a moving block 403 is threadedly connected to the proximity screw 404, the moving block 403 is slidably engaged with the proximity channel 402, a protrusion 406 is provided on the upper part of the proximity housing 401, an indicator needle 408 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the moving block 403, a scale line 407 is provided on the side of the proximity housing 401, and the indicator needle 408 is located outside the scale line 407. During the tightening and approaching operation, the approach handle 405 drives the approach screw 404 to rotate, the approach screw 404 drives the moving block 403 to move, thereby driving the drive component 3 on the moving block 403 to move, so that the drive component 3 and the clamping component 2 move closer to each other, realizing the initial alignment between the protector body 102 and the oil pipe workpiece 101 and the subsequent continuous tightening and approaching.

[0020] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 Clamping assembly 2 is located near the upper part of assembly 4 and is used to clamp the oil pipe workpiece 101. Clamping assembly 2 includes clamping housing 201, clamping bidirectional lead screw 202 is rotatably connected inside clamping housing 201, two movable housings 203 are threaded on clamping bidirectional lead screw 202, clamping claws 204 are fixedly connected inside movable housings 203, and clamping handle 205 is fixedly connected to one end of clamping bidirectional lead screw 202. In this embodiment, the clamping housing 201 is fixedly connected to the protrusion 406; During clamping operations, the oil pipe workpiece 101 is placed between the two movable housings 203. The clamping handle 205 drives the clamping double-acting screw 202 to rotate. The threads on the clamping double-acting screw 202 cause the two movable housings 203 to move closer to each other, thereby causing the clamping claws 204 to contact the oil pipe workpiece 101, thus clamping the oil pipe workpiece 101 and realizing the clamping function.

[0021] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 The drive assembly 3 is located near the lower part of the assembly 4 and is used to clamp and drive the protector body 102 to rotate. The drive assembly 3 includes a drive housing 301, a drive bidirectional lead screw 302 is rotatably connected inside the drive housing 301, a drive housing 1 303 and a drive housing 2 305 are threadedly connected to the drive bidirectional lead screw 302, an auxiliary wheel 304 is rotatably connected inside the drive housing 1 303, an auxiliary wheel 304 is rotatably connected inside the drive housing 2 305, a drive wheel 309 is rotatably connected to the end of the drive housing 2 305, a drive motor 308 is fixedly installed inside the drive housing 2 305, the drive motor 308 drives the drive wheel 309 to rotate through the transmission component 307, and a drive handle 306 is fixedly connected to one end of the drive bidirectional lead screw 302. In this embodiment, the drive housing 301 is fixedly connected to the moving block 403. In order to control the speed of the drive wheel 309, the drive motor 308 can be a servo motor. With the help of the PLC controller, it can achieve slow rotation in the early stage to align the threaded part, and stable rotation in the later stage to achieve the function of rapid twisting. When the protector body 102 rotates, the drive handle 306 first drives the drive double-acting screw 302 to rotate, thereby causing the drive housing 1 303 and drive housing 2 305 to approach each other and contact the protector body 102. Then, the drive motor 308 works under the action of the external power supply and controller to initially fix the protector body 102. The drive wheel 309 is driven to rotate through the transmission component 307, and the drive wheel 309 drives the protector body 102 to rotate, thereby generating a twisting force. The transmission component 307 includes two pulleys and a belt between the two pulleys. One pulley is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 308, and the other pulley is fixedly connected to the drive wheel 309. The drive motor 308 drives one of the pulleys to rotate, which in turn drives the other pulley to rotate via the belt, thereby driving the drive wheel 309 to rotate.

[0022] refer to Figure 6 , Figure 7 Locking component 5 is disposed on clamping component 2 and driving component 3 and is used to provide one-way locking function. Locking component 5 includes a ring ratchet 501 and a fixed slide sleeve 505. A locking rod 503 is slidably connected inside the fixed slide sleeve 505. A hand block 506 is fixedly connected to one end of the locking rod 503, and a locking pawl 502 is fixedly connected to the other end of the locking rod 503. The locking pawl 502 cooperates with the ring ratchet 501. A locking spring 504 is sleeved on the locking rod 503 and is located between the fixed slide sleeve 505 and the locking pawl 502. The driving double-acting lead screw 302 and the clamping double-acting lead screw 202 are respectively fixedly connected to the two ring ratchet 501; During the locking operation, under the elastic force of the locking spring 504, the locking pawl 502 is always engaged with the ring ratchet 501, so that the driving double-acting screw 302 and the clamping double-acting screw 202 can only rotate in one direction. During the clamping and driving operations, the auxiliary wheel 304, the driving wheel 309, and the clamping pawl 204 are kept stable, thereby ensuring the stability of the protector body 102 and the oil pipe workpiece 101 and the quality of the screwing. When it is necessary to release the reverse rotation drive double-acting screw 302 and clamp double-acting screw 202, the locking lever 503 is pulled by the hand block 506 to lock the pawl 502, thereby moving the locking pawl 502 away from the ring ratchet 501. At this time, without the restriction of the locking pawl 502, the drive double-acting screw 302 and clamp double-acting screw 202 can rotate normally.

[0023] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 8 The lifting component 6 is located at the bottom of the drive component 3 and is used to lift the protector body 102. The lifting component 6 includes a connecting block 601, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to a base plate 602. A lifting seat 603 is fixedly connected to the base plate 602, and a lifting wheel 604 is rotatably connected to the lifting seat 603. The connecting block 601 is fixedly connected to the drive housing 301. There are four lifting seats 603, which are evenly arranged around the circumference. During the lifting operation, the protector body 102 is placed directly on multiple lifting rollers 604. The multiple lifting rollers 604 can make the end face of the protector body 102 on the same plane. In conjunction with the clamping assembly 2, it can ensure that the protector body 102 and the threaded part of the oil pipe workpiece 101 are accurately aligned and screwed in, avoiding the difficult operation of manually aligning the protector body 102 and the threaded part.

[0024] Working principle: First, place the protector body 102, which is the oil pipe thread protector, on multiple lifting rollers 604. The multiple lifting rollers 604 can make the end face of the protector body 102 on the same plane. First, drive the double-acting screw 302 to rotate by driving the handle 306, thereby driving the first drive housing 303 and the second drive housing 305 to approach each other and contact the protector body 102, thus achieving the initial fixation of the protector body 102. The oil pipe workpiece 101 is placed between two movable shells 203. The clamping handle 205 drives the clamping double-acting screw 202 to rotate. The threads on the clamping double-acting screw 202 cause the two movable shells 203 to move closer to each other, thereby causing the clamping claw 204 to contact the oil pipe workpiece 101 and clamp the oil pipe workpiece 101, thus achieving the clamping function. Then, by moving the handle 405, the lead screw 404 is rotated, and the lead screw 404 moves the moving block 403, thereby moving the drive component 3 on the moving block 403, so that the drive component 3 and the clamping component 2 move closer to each other, thereby achieving contact between the threaded part of the protector body 102 and the oil pipe workpiece 101. Then, the drive motor 308 works under the action of the external power supply and controller, and drives the drive wheel 309 to rotate through the transmission component 307. The drive wheel 309 drives the protector body 102 to rotate, thereby generating a twisting force. While screwing, the device moves closer to component 4, and the indicator needle 408 moves relative to the scale line 407. Based on the position of the scale line 407, the device body 102 can be installed completely without any exposed thread. The device of this invention has a compact overall structure, can be carried to the construction site, and solves the problem of inconvenient automatic screwing of thread protectors at the construction site.

[0025] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
