Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of welding auxiliary devices, in particular to a welding seam heating blanket hanging fixture. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the application of large-diameter straight seam submerged arc welded pipes has been expanded to many fields. In addition to pipelines, it has also developed in the direction of special ships such as offshore drilling and oil production platforms, offshore floating cranes and other marine structures and thermal power generation units. As a pipe for marine structures, large-diameter straight seam welded pipes have obvious advantages, such as uniform wall thickness, simple process, low cost, less performance affected by the pipe making process, easy to achieve high strength and high toughness requirements, and flexible specification adjustment to meet the requirements of different pipe diameters. However, the service environment of marine structure pipes is different from that of land fluid transportation pipes. In addition to bearing working stress, marine structure pipes must also withstand environmental stresses such as wind, waves, seawater corrosion, temperature difference and low temperature. Therefore, in practical applications, in addition to requiring general pipeline performance, marine structure pipes also have higher requirements for their strength, toughness and corrosion resistance. Low-alloy, large-wall thickness, high-grade welded steel pipes have gradually become the development direction. Before welding low-alloy welded pipes and pressure vessel pipelines, in order to reduce welding residual stress and improve the organization and performance of the weld, the weld groove should be preheated before welding. When producing high-grade welded steel pipes in winter, in order to prevent welding defects, the weld groove must also be preheated before welding. Preheating can control the cooling rate of the weld joint, reduce or avoid the formation of hardened martensite in the heat-affected zone, reduce the hardness of the heat-affected zone, thereby reducing welding stress and helping hydrogen to fully escape from the weld joint.

[0003] Existing preheating devices usually use flexible heating blankets to preheat the welded pipes. However, in actual operation, this method requires manual real-time monitoring of the heating temperature, which is not only time-consuming but also labor-intensive. In addition, it is difficult for operators to accurately judge whether the flexible heating blanket is fully fitted to the welded pipe. If the preheating temperature is insufficient, the performance of the welded pipe cannot be significantly improved. Utility Model Content
