[0002] In the field of civil engineering pipeline construction, it is often necessary to lay pipelines over a large area.

However, the materials, diameters, etc. of each section of the pipeline may be different.

[0003] When connecting pipelines, not only the connection position should be considered to facilitate construction, but also various issues such as different materials, diameters, thicknesses, etc. The most important thing is that the pipelines should be connected correctly to ensure the use effect.

[0004] Current construction methods:

[0005] ①One worker holds the ends of the two pipes to be connected and aligns them manually, while another worker connects them;

[0006] ② When the pipeline is heavy or cannot be handled by one person, two or more workers will operate the two ends of the pipeline respectively, align them, and then one worker will connect them;

[0007] ③ Place the pipeline on the ground, use stones, sand or wooden wedges to support the low places, and use your feet and body weight to press down the high places to achieve the purpose of alignment;

[0008] ④The connection between pipelines is usually made by welding, heating, sealant, connectors, joint sleeves, etc.

[0009] There are problems with the current construction method:

[0010] ① The workers hold the pipes close to each other, and the alignment accuracy of the pipes is extremely challenging for their personal level, which has a huge impact on the control of construction quality. In addition, the alignment efficiency is not high and deviations are prone to occur;

[0011] ② Multiple people perform alignment operations, which not only wastes labor, but also requires constant adjustment of the alignment positions on both sides, making coordination and operation difficult;

[0012] ③Due to the operations of electric welding, heating and glue injection, workers need to wear protective equipment, which may cause harm to other people around them, thus creating a great safety hazard for the surrounding personnel;

[0013] ④ When pipelines are placed on the ground, high pipelines are prone to be squeezed and cracked or damaged due to uneven weight, and low pipelines are prone to rolling or slipping at the support pad position, which have a serious impact on the alignment and connection of the pipelines;

[0014] ⑤ When the pipeline is not aligned, not only the material consumption increases exponentially, but also during use, the joints are easily damaged because the degree of patency is seriously lower than that of normal pipelines. Utility Model Content

[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0034] The utility model aims to provide a pipeline alignment tool to solve the problems existing in the prior art, improve construction quality, construction efficiency and construction safety, save labor, and at the same time, have a wide range of applications.

[0035] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a pipeline alignment tool, including at least one alignment module, the alignment module includes a connecting shell 2 and two adjustment clamps 1, with a simple structure and low manufacturing cost. The two adjustment clamps 1 are movably installed at the two ends of the connecting shell 2, and the two adjustment clamps 1 are used to clamp the two pipelines 3, thereby clamping and fixing the two pipelines 3. The adjustment clamp 1 is provided with a transmission element, and the two ends of the connecting shell 2 are respectively connected to the two transmission elements. When the clamping range of the adjustment clamp 1 changes, it can drive the transmission element to transmit, and the transmission element is limited by the connecting shell 2, so that the two pipelines 3 are in an aligned state, improving the alignment efficiency, and the alignment quality is guaranteed, reducing the construction difficulty, avoiding subsequent repeated maintenance, and at the same time, because the clamping range of the adjustment clamp 1 is adjustable, it can adapt to the clamping and alignment of pipelines 3 of different sizes, and has a wide range of applications. In addition, the utility model is simple to operate, greatly reduces the requirements for personnel quality, saves labor, and also avoids sparks generated by construction from causing damage to construction workers.

[0037] Specifically, the adjusting splint 1 includes a rotating element 13, two baffles 12 and two tooth plates 11. The two tooth plates 11 are arranged in parallel, and the tooth surface sides of the two tooth plates 11 are opposite to each other. The outer periphery of the rotating element 13 is meshed with the two tooth plates 11 to form a transmission element. When the two tooth plates 11 move toward or away from each other, they can drive the rotating element 13 to rotate, and the axis of the rotating element 13 is rotatably connected to the connecting shell 2, and then the rotating element 13 is limited by the connecting shell 2, so that the two rotating elements 13 are always aligned, thereby ensuring that the two adjusting splints 13 are aligned. When the section clamp 1 clamps the two pipelines 3 respectively, the two pipelines 3 can be aligned. The operation is simple and convenient, and it does not require too many workers to complete, saving labor. The baffle 12 and the tooth plate 11 correspond one to one, and the baffle 12 and the tooth plate 11 are perpendicular to each other. One corner of the baffle 12 is fixed to one end of the tooth plate 11. The two baffles 12 are used to clamp the pipeline 3, and then with the relative movement of the tooth plate 11, the two baffles 12 move towards or away from each other, and the displacement directions of the two tooth plates 11 are opposite, and the displacement distances are equal.

[0038] The adjusting splint 1 also includes two limiters 14 . A limiter 14 is fixed to one end of each tooth plate 11 away from the baffle 12 . The limiter 14 can limit the rotating element 13 to prevent the rotating element 13 from escaping from the tooth plate 11 during the process of adjusting the clamping range of the adjusting splint 1 .

[0039] The rotating element 13 includes a rotating shaft 131 and a gear 132. The gear 132 is fixed to the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 131. The outer periphery of the gear 132 is meshed with the two tooth plates 11. The two ends of the rotating shaft 131 are respectively rotatably connected to the upper and lower end surfaces of the connecting shell 2, so that the connecting shell 2 will not affect the normal rotation of the gear 132.

[0040] The connecting shell 2 includes a middle section 21 and two end sections 22. The two end sections 22 are respectively fixed at the two ends of the middle section 21, and the end sections 22 are perpendicular to the middle section 21. The end sections 22 are sleeved on the outer periphery of the two tooth plates 11 on the same side to achieve connection and limit the two tooth plates 11, ensuring that the two tooth plates 11 are always engaged with the gears 132. The tooth plates 11 can slide in the end sections 22 to achieve distance adjustment between the two baffles 12.

[0041] There are two alignment modules, and the clamping directions of the two alignment modules are perpendicular to each other, so that the pipeline 3 is centered on multiple axes. At this time, the full-directional alignment of the pipeline 3 is completed, and the next step can be carried out.

[0042] The present embodiment adopts a detachable and replaceable assembly as a whole, which saves costs, is easy to carry, and has strong applicability in multiple sizes.

[0043] The present invention uses specific examples to illustrate the principle and implementation of the present invention. The above examples are only used to help understand the method and core idea of ​​the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
