[0002] During the pipeline processing, the inner wall of the pipeline needs to be polished. Since the pipeline is long, a transmission mandrel is generally used to connect the grinding head and the motor. The grinding head is extended into the pipeline through the transmission mandrel and the motor power is transmitted to the grinding head to polish the inner wall of the pipeline.
[0003] For longer pipes, a longer transmission mandrel is required. An overly long transmission mandrel will have excessive deflection when rotating, which will generate loud noise and vibration, and easily lead to mandrel breakage. The previous improvement plan was to install a bearing between the mandrel and the outer protection tube of the probe rod to support the mandrel. However, since the bearing is in the middle of the probe rod, it is difficult to maintain the bearing. Once the bearing is damaged, the entire transmission mandrel needs to be replaced.
