DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0034] See attached Figure 1 As shown, a mounting support device suitable for large diameter pipelines includes a first support frame 3, a third support frame 13, a connecting rod 5, a second support frame 11, a first support rod 9, a mileage wheel 10, a second support rod 7 and an auxiliary wheel 6.

[0035] The first support frame 3 and the third support frame 13 are coaxially spaced and arranged, and a plurality of connecting rods 5 are fixedly connected between the first support frame 3 and the third support frame 13, and the plurality of connecting rods 5 are parallel to each other. The first support frame 3, the third support frame 13 and the connecting rods 5 constitute a support frame fixing assembly; the second support frame 11 is slidably connected to the connecting rods 5;

[0036] In this embodiment, three connecting rods 5 are arranged in parallel and at intervals; an instrument 4 for detection is fixedly connected to the end of the first support frame 3 between the multiple connecting rods 5 (the instrument 4 can be replaced according to the detection needs),

[0037] The outer periphery of the first support frame 3 is evenly spaced and hinged with a plurality of first support rods 9, and the free ends of the first support rods 9 are all installed with mileage wheels 10, which are connected to the instrument 4 through a line; the mileage wheel 10 is a device for determining the position of defects in the pipe, which is mainly placed on the periphery of the overall structure of the detection device and in contact with the pipe wall, and rotates with the movement of the detection device. When the detection device moves to the defect position in the pipe, the identification signal of the defect detection sensor will change. By extracting the mileage number recorded by the mileage wheel 10 at the same time, the defect in the pipe can be located. The mileage wheel 10 is connected to the corresponding instrument 4 to obtain the corresponding detection result.

[0038] A plurality of second support rods 7 are hingedly connected at even intervals on the outer periphery of the second support frame 11, and auxiliary wheels 6 are installed at the free ends of the second support rods 7. The first support rods 9 correspond to the second support rods 7 one by one, and the corresponding first support rods 9 and the second support rods 7 are hingedly connected by a pin shaft 8 in the middle part, and the first support rods 9 and the second support rods 7 connected by the pin shaft 8 form a set of support rod components.

[0039] As shown in the attached drawings of this embodiment, for pipes with a diameter of DN600 or more, six groups are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction to increase support stability; for pipes with a diameter of DN400-DN600, three groups can be evenly distributed along the circumferential direction.

[0040] When the second support frame 11 moves, the first support rod 9 and the second support rod 7 swing synchronously relative to each other. As the first support rod 9 and the second support rod 7 rotate, the mileage wheel 10 and the auxiliary wheel 6 respectively extend and retract radially in the circumferential direction, and the mileage wheel 10 group and the auxiliary wheel 6 group can be supported on the inner wall of the tube body respectively.

[0041] In order to match the inner diameter of the pipe to be detected, the radial size of the mileage wheel 10 is adjusted, and the second support frame 11 can coaxially reciprocate along the connecting rod 5. A limit ring 15 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 5 between the second support frame 11 and the first support frame 3. The limit ring 15 is used to limit the movement range of the second support frame 11;

[0042] A compression spring 12 is mounted on the connecting rod 5 between the second support frame 11 and the third support frame 13. The two ends of the compression spring 12 abut against the second support frame 11 and the third support frame 13 respectively, thereby providing a supporting force for the second support frame 11, thereby keeping the mileage wheel 10 and the auxiliary wheel 6 abutting against the inner wall of the tube.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first support frame 3, the second support frame 11, and the third support frame 13 are regular hexagonal flat plate structures with the same outer dimensions, and can be set to other regular polygonal structures as needed.

[0044] In order to increase the strength, the first support rod 9 and the second support rod 7 are both made of seamless steel pipes. Other materials can also be used as long as the required strength is achieved. The first support rod 9 and the second support rod 7 are both provided with bends.

[0045] See attached Figure 2 As shown, in order to control the movement of the device and facilitate pulling, a traction cover 2 is fixedly connected to the end surface of the first support frame 3 and the third support frame 13 that are away from the connecting rod 5, and a traction connecting piece 1 is fixedly installed in the middle of the traction cover 2. The traction piece can be connected to structures such as steel cables or pull rods to drive the device to move inside the tube body.

[0046] See attached Figure 3 As shown, in order to reduce friction resistance, linear bearings 16 are installed at the connection position between the second support frame 11 and the connecting rod 5.

[0047] See attached Figure 3 , 5 As shown, in order to reduce the elongation of the compression spring 12, a spacer sleeve 17 can be installed between the limit ring 15 and the linear bearing 16, and a washer 18 is installed between the spacer sleeve 17 and the linear bearing 16. The compression spring 12 is a replaceable structure, and the pipe diameter requirement can be met by replacing the spring. The length of the compression spring 12 can be changed to adapt to different pipe diameters.

[0048] See attached Figure 4 As shown, in order to ensure the installation stability of the instrument 4 , a fixing frame 14 is fixedly connected to the middle of the plurality of connecting rods 5 , and the instrument 4 for detection is installed between the fixing frame 14 and the first supporting frame 3 .

[0049] The supporting device of the present application can be used not only for the detection of large-diameter pipes above DN400, but also for ordinary pipes and small-sized pipes of DN400 and below.

[0050] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
