[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of steel pipe welding centering, and more specifically relates to a clamp device for fixing the steel pipe welding centering. Background Art

[0002] When a sewage treatment plant is being modified or expanded, it will involve a variety of process pipelines, mainly including: production pipelines, overrunning pipelines and sludge pipelines, etc., all of which are made of steel pipes and are mainly connected by welding. Traditional pipeline welding requires manual assistance for docking, and an electric hoist is needed to align the two ends of the welded pipes before welding the joints.

[0003] However, this method requires the use of an electric hoist to maintain the butt joint of the two sections of steel pipe, and requires manual assistance from workers to align the two sections of the steel pipe. During the welding process, the pipes at both ends are not easy to stabilize, the alignment error is large, and the steel pipe ends are prone to offset and large gaps. The welding process is prone to leaking welds, large butt welds, and poor welding quality, which reduces the quality of pipeline welding, takes a long time, and has low pipeline construction efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a clamp device for centering and fixing steel pipe welding to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0017] Furthermore, a rotating shaft is rotatably provided on the first clamp via a bearing, a connecting plate is provided on the rotating shaft, and a limiting component is provided on the connecting plate for limiting the position of the second clamp.

[0018] Furthermore, the second clamp is provided with a plurality of limiting holes, and the limiting component includes:

[0024] 2. In this solution, after the interface of the two sections of steel pipes is tightly fitted by adjusting the mechanism, the connecting plate drives the limiting component to move to the corresponding position of the second clamp, and the position of the second clamp is limited, which can further improve the stability between the first clamp and the second clamp. At the same time, when the first clamp and the second clamp are removed or moved, the position of the second clamp is limited by the limiting component, which can avoid the first clamp and the second clamp from being separated from each other, and also prevent the first clamp and the second clamp from shaking and making loud noises.

[0034] When in use, after the steel pipe is laid, the position where the pipe is welded is dug deeper to ensure the working surface for the workers, and the electric hoist is used to align the position where the two sections of the pipe are connected. After that, the device can be installed. First, the adjustment hoop 4 of the second clamp 3 can be inserted into the arc groove 5 of the first clamp 2, so that the first clamp 2 and the second clamp 3 form a whole. Then, the first clamp 2 and the second clamp 3 are symmetrically placed on the end interface positions of the two sections of steel pipes 1, and the first clamp 2 and the second clamp 3 are placed on the two steel pipes 1 respectively. Figure 1 As shown, the first clamp 2 and the second clamp 3 are tightly locked on the steel pipe 1 through the fixing mechanism 8, and the interface of the two sections of the steel pipe 1 is located between the first reserved hole 6 and the second reserved hole 7.

After the upper and lower symmetrical first clamp 2 and the second clamp 3 are put on the outer wall of the steel pipe 1, bolts are passed through the fixing holes 83 of the upper and lower symmetrical first fixing plate 81 and the second fixing plate 82, and fixed by nuts, so that the upper and lower first clamp 2 and the second clamp 3 can be fixed together, so that they are tightly locked on the steel pipe 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, preferably, please refer to Figure 1-2 and Figure 4-5 The adjustment mechanism 9 includes: an adjustment plate 91, which is arranged on the first fixing plate 81 and the second fixing plate 82, and an adjustment hole 92 is opened on the adjustment plate 91; adjacent adjustment plates 91 are connected by adjusting screws 93 and nuts.

At this time, the adjustment hoop 4 will also slide towards the arc groove 5, which will make the interface of the two sections of the steel pipe 1 fit closely, thereby avoiding the occurrence of gaps or large gaps at the interface of the two sections of the steel pipe 1, thereby improving the quality of welding and the subsequent use of the steel pipe 1.

[0037] In this embodiment, preferably, please refer to Figure 1-5 The first hoop 2 is provided with a rotating shaft 10 through a bearing, the rotating shaft 10 is provided with a connecting plate 11, and the connecting plate 11 is provided with a limiting component 12 for limiting the position of the second hoop 3.

The elastic member 123 in the present application is a spring. First, the pull plate 122 can be pulled upward, and the pull plate 122 will drive the limiting rod 121 to move and stretch the elastic member 123. Then, the connecting plate 11 is rotated so that the limiting rod 121 rotates to the position of the limiting hole 13 on the second clamp 3. After the pull plate 122 is released, the pull plate 122 and the limiting rod 121 can be driven to move by the rebound force of the elastic member 123, and the limiting rod 121 will eventually enter the limiting hole 13, so that the second clamp 3 can be restricted by the cooperation of the limiting rod 121 and the limiting hole 13.
