The fixing rod is around the central cylinder and its two ends are fixed on the side support seats at both ends of the plugging device body. The other end of the central cylinder is connected to the operating mechanism, and the plugging head is arranged at the top of the central cylinder and the connecting cylinder. The beneficial effect of the utility model is that it can realize plugging of a small-diameter pressure pipeline under pressure without stopping the transportation. The minimum diameter of the plugged pipeline can reach the nominal diameter of 40, and it is used for plugging operations of petroleum, petrochemical, and gas water pipes.
[0004] The above technical solution has some problems in practical applications. When the above technical solution is used for plugging, its plugging effect is limited by the contact effect between the plugging head and the pipeline, and the plugging head is prone to wear during multiple uses, affecting the plugging effect.
[0005] Therefore, it is very necessary to invent an auxiliary device for plugging a live pipeline under pressure to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

A connecting tile 2 is fixedly arranged at the bottom end of the shunt pipe 1. A pipeline 3 to be sealed is arranged below the connecting tile 2. An extension pipe 4 is fixedly arranged at the top end of the shunt pipe 1. An installation pipe 5 is arranged at the top end of the extension pipe 4. A sealing rubber ring 6 is arranged inside the installation pipe 5. The sealing rubber ring 6 is in a drum-shaped structure when not deformed, so as to be easily inserted into the pipeline 3 to be sealed;
[0022] Specifically, lower electromagnets 7 and upper electromagnets 8 are fixedly arranged at both inner ends of the sealing rubber ring 6. The lower electromagnets 7 and the upper electromagnets 8 are both arranged in a cylindrical structure, and a deceleration spring 9 is arranged between the lower electromagnets 7 and the upper electromagnets 8. The arrangement of the deceleration spring 9 prevents the sealing rubber ring 6 from being damaged due to rapid deformation.
[0023] More specifically, a positioning screw 10 is fixedly arranged at the top end of the sealing rubber ring 6, a fixing plate 11 is fixedly arranged at the top end of the installation pipe 5, a threaded sleeve 12 is movably arranged in the middle of the fixing plate 11 through a bearing, and the threaded sleeve 12 is sleeved outside the positioning screw 10. A driving motor 13 is fixedly arranged at the top end of the fixing plate 11, and a gear set 14 is arranged between the driving motor 13 and the threaded sleeve 12. Positioning sliders 15 are fixedly arranged on both inner walls of the installation pipe 5, and positioning sliding seats 16 corresponding to the positioning sliders 15 are fixedly arranged at the top end of the sealing rubber ring 6. The cooperation between the positioning sliders 15 and the positioning sliding seats 16 can ensure that the sealing rubber ring 6 slides up and down without rotating, so as to facilitate the cooperation between the positioning screw 10 and the threaded sleeve 12.
[0024] Furthermore, an extension cover 17 is fixedly arranged in the middle of the extension pipe 4. A slot 18 is opened in the middle of the extension cover 17, and one end of the slot 18 extends into the extension pipe 4. A sealing plate 19 is inserted in the slot 18, and the sealing plate 19 is arranged in a circular structure corresponding to the extension pipe 4. A screw hole 20 is penetrated through the middle of the bottom of the slot 18, and an adjusting screw 21 is penetrated through the screw hole 20. One end of the adjusting screw 21 is movably arranged in the middle of the sealing plate 19 through a bearing, and a hand wheel is fixedly arranged at one end of the adjusting screw 21.

[0025] The working principle of the present utility model:
[0026] When the device is in use, first weld the shunt pipe 1 to the outside of the pipeline 3 to be sealed through the connecting tile 2, and install the extension pipe 4 at the top of the shunt pipe 1. Then, pass the hole-opening drill bit through the extension pipe 4 and drill a hole on the outside of the pipeline 3 to be sealed. After drilling, block the extension pipe 4 through the sealing plate 19 inside the extension pipe 4. After removing the drill bit, fix the installation pipe 5 at the top of the extension pipe 4. Then, adjust the position of the sealing plate 19 and start the drive motor 13. The drive motor 13 drives the threaded sleeve 12 to rotate through the gear set 14. The threaded sleeve 12 cooperates with the positioning screw rod 10, so that the positioning screw rod 10 drives the sealing rubber ring 6 to move downward until the sealing rubber ring 6 is inserted into the pipeline 3 to be sealed. At this time, switch the electrode directions of the upper electromagnet 8 and the lower electromagnet 7, so that the magnetic poles of the upper electromagnet 8 and the lower electromagnet 7 change. At this time, the upper electromagnet 8 and the lower electromagnet 7 attract each other, so that both ends of the sealing rubber ring 6 move towards the middle. At this time, the sealing rubber ring 6 expands in the horizontal direction to block the pipeline 3 to be sealed.
