Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a traction device for repairing the inner lining of a PE pipe, in particular to a replacement device for traction equipment during the operation process of inserting the outlet end of the PE pipe. Background Art

[0002] PE (HDPE) pipe is a kind of plastic pipe widely used in water supply and drainage engineering. The inner wall of this kind of pipe is smooth, strong in tensile strength, corrosion-resistant, and has a long service life. It can be used for pressure flow pipes and gravity flow pipes, and can be constructed by excavation or trenchless construction. During the construction process, the equal-diameter compression and interlacing process is the most economical, reliable, and practical trenchless repair technology for PE (HDPE) pipes. This process involves PE pipe stretching and traction during flange welding. In this process, it means the repeated use of the traction device, which seriously restricts the improvement of work efficiency. At the same time, the reciprocating traction of the rope will inevitably accelerate the wear of the wire rope, thereby affecting the service life of the wire rope, and accompanied by safety accident hazards. Designing a traction device for repairing the lining of PE pipes can not only improve the service life of the wire rope and reduce its economic cost, but also provide the operating efficiency of the traction equipment, provide the efficiency of the equipment, and provide guarantees for the joint operation of multiple teams; in addition, the research and development of this equipment reduces the occurrence of safety production hazards and saves labor costs, so it is necessary to invent this device.

[0021] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a traction device for repairing the lining of a PE pipe comprises a hydraulic thruster I, an inner cone sleeve II, and an outer sheath III.

[0022] The hydraulic thruster 1 adopts an assembled structure; the hydraulic thruster 1 includes a support plate assembly 1, a hydraulic cylinder assembly 2, a slip retainer assembly 3, a hydraulic pipeline 4 and a fastener 1; the fastener 1 is composed of a screw 5 and a nut 6; the support plate assembly 1 and the hydraulic cylinder assembly 2 are connected together by the cooperation of the screw 5 and the nut 6; the slip retainer assembly 3 and the support plate assembly 1 adopt a detachable assembly structure to meet the working conditions of different pipe diameters; the support plate assembly 1 is composed of three support plates, and the support plates are welded and fixed with structural steel parts to ensure the strength and stability of the device; the support plate located in the middle is provided with a positioning hole, and is connected to the flange of the pipeline to be lined by the cooperation of positioning bolts and positioning nuts, thereby offsetting the reverse force generated during the traction process and ensuring the completion of the construction task.

[0023] The inner cone sleeve II is composed of two parts, namely the cone sleeve 7 and the handle 13. The cone sleeve 7 is formed by integral extrusion and is precisely machined on a lathe. A hydraulic pipeline channel is reserved in the middle and a designed taper is adopted to meet the requirements of a certain range of pipe diameters, thereby increasing the universality of the device and improving economic efficiency. The handle 13 adopts a detachable structure, which is easy to maintain and meet the requirements of the working space under specific working conditions. The device has strong applicability.

[0024] The outer sheath III is composed of upper and lower semicircular arcs 8, a pin shaft 9, a pin 10 and a fastener II, wherein the upper and lower semicircular arcs 8 are formed by rolling and welding of plates, and the middle is reinforced and welded by profiles; one end of the upper and lower semicircular arcs 8 is connected together by the cooperation of the pin shaft 9 and the pin 10, and is rotated along the pin shaft 9 to open and close a certain angle, which is convenient for the assembly and cooperation of the outer sheath III and the pipeline to be lined, and the other end is connected together by the cooperation of the fastening bolt 11 and the fastening nut 12, thereby ensuring the preload force of the outer sheath III and the pipeline to be lined.

[0025] The inner sides of the upper and lower semicircular arcs 8 of the outer sheath III adopt a slip guard ring mode, which can adapt the slip radius according to different pipe diameters to meet different working conditions. At the same time, the slip guard ring adopts a detachable structure, which can realize the rapid assembly and matching of the slips, save operation time, and improve work efficiency, thereby ensuring the wide applicability of the device and the implementation of the operation task.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] Before the PE pipe is inserted into the outlet end, the support plate assembly 1 and the hydraulic cylinder assembly 2 are assembled and fixed by fasteners I, and the hydraulic pipeline 4 is installed. The hydraulic device is operated in conjunction with the slip ring assembly 3 according to different pipe diameter specifications; after the installation is completed, the device is placed on the flange end, and the positioning bolts are adjusted so that the corresponding positions of the flange holes correspond one by one. After the position is determined, the positioning nuts are tightened to fix it; the length of the hydraulic cylinder assembly 2 is adjusted, and the reserved length of the PE pipe is cut according to different working conditions. The tapered sleeve 7 and the upper and lower semicircular arcs 8 are installed, and the fasteners II are adjusted so that the tapered sleeve 7, the upper and lower semicircular arcs 8 are fully matched and contacted with the reserved PE pipe. During the PE pipe traction process, through the close cooperation of the three and the friction generated between them, it is ensured that the PE pipe traction reaches the designed length, thereby meeting the operation requirements and completing the engineering operation tasks.
