[0030] Now, embodiments of the present utility model will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Embodiment

[0032] The detailed implementation manners of the present utility model are as Figures 1-5 shown. A pipeline clamping device includes a clamping mechanism. The clamping mechanism includes a vertically arranged mounting plate 3. On one side surface of the mounting plate 3, two clamping arms 302 extending downward to both sides of the pipeline are relatively arranged. The mounting plate 3 is also provided with two clamping arm adjusting screws and a wrench 303. On the opposite sides of the lower ends of the two clamping arms 302, clamping blocks 301 are provided. The two clamping blocks 301 are arranged relatively. In this embodiment, the clamping block 301 is an arc-shaped clamping block. Regarding how to realize the adjustment of the distance between the two clamping arms 302 by the clamping arm adjusting screws and how to realize the clamping drive of the two clamping arms 302 by the wrench 303, this belongs to the conventional technical means in the art, and the connection relationship of its various components can be set with reference to the Chinese patent with the publication number CN117798593A - "A welding caliper clamping device applicable to pipelines with a wide range of diameters and its application". Therefore, it will not be elaborated in this embodiment.

[0033] In order to achieve centering clamping of the device on the pipeline, the device further includes a fixing plate 2 connected in parallel with the plate surface of the mounting plate 3. Two support square rods 202 are arranged on the fixing plate 2 along the radial direction of the pipeline, and the lower ends of the two support square rods 202 extend outside the fixing plate 2 and are in contact with the outer wall of the pipeline. At the same time, indicating scales 204 are provided on the outer walls of the support square rods 202. An adjusting assembly capable of driving the axial movement of the support square rods 202 is also provided on the fixing plate 2. Through the adjusting assembly, the axial extension amounts of the two support square rods 202 can be adjusted along the radial direction of the pipeline. Thus, in cooperation with the indicating scales 204 on the outer walls of the support square rods 202, it can be ensured that the device can be centered and clamped on pipelines with various pipe diameters. Moreover, the reason for setting the support square rods 202 to two is that two positioning points can determine a straight line, which can ensure the maximum elimination of pipeline eccentricity, thereby ensuring the centering clamping installation of the pipeline, and further ensuring the concentricity between the processing equipment and the workpiece. In this embodiment, the lower ends of the support square rods 202 are connected with support feet 203 arranged along the axial direction of the pipeline. By setting the support feet 203 in this way, the axial deflection of the pipeline can be further prevented.

[0034] The clamping mechanism of the device can achieve clamping in a multi-pipe diameter range, and the clamping is firm and reliable. At the same time, by using two support square rods 202 arranged along the radial direction of the pipeline and capable of axially adjusting their positions, in cooperation with the indicating scales 204 on the outer walls of the support square rods 202, it can be ensured that the device can be centered and clamped on pipelines with various pipe diameters. Therefore, through this device, it can be ensured that the clamping device is centered and clamped on the pipeline, so as to ensure the concentricity between the processing equipment clamped on the pipeline and the workpiece, and further high-precision positioning can be achieved, ensuring the processing quality.

[0035] In this device, in order to guide the movement path of the support square rods 202, a square chute 201 passing through the entire fixing plate 2 along the radial direction of the pipeline is provided on the plate surface of the fixing plate 2, and the support square rods 202 are slidably installed in the square chute 201. At the same time, in order to adjust the extension amount of the support square rods 202, the adjusting assembly of the device includes a support adjusting screw rod 205 extending in the same direction as the support square rods 202, and the lower outer wall of the support adjusting screw rod 205 is threadedly connected and matched with the support square rods 202. The support adjusting screw rod 205 is arranged in the square chute 201, and a limit block 206 rotatably installed on the inner wall of the square chute 201 is fixedly provided on the upper part of the support adjusting screw rod 205. The upper end of the support adjusting screw rod 205 extends outside the fixing plate 2 and is connected with an adjusting knob 1. When it is necessary to position a certain pipe diameter, by rotating the adjusting knob 1, the support adjusting screw rod 205 is driven to rotate. When the support adjusting screw rod 205 rotates, it drives the support square rods 202 to move along the radial direction of the pipeline to the specified pipe diameter scale, so as to achieve pipe diameter positioning adjustment.

[0036] Meanwhile, regarding the specific structure of the adjustment knob 1, the adjustment knob 1 includes a knob inner shaft 102, one end of which is provided with a threaded hole for fixing and installing the entire adjustment knob 1, and the other end is provided with a knob outer shell 101 that can move axially along the knob inner shaft 102. The outer wall of the knob inner shaft 102 is provided with outer teeth 106, and the inner wall of the knob outer shell 101 is provided with inner teeth 105 that can be inserted into and disengaged from the outer teeth 106 along the axial direction of the knob inner shaft 102. In this embodiment, a rear cover 104 is provided on the end of the knob outer shell 101 away from the knob inner shaft 102, and a knob spring 103 is provided between the rear cover 104 and the end surface of the knob inner shaft 102, and the two ends of the knob spring 103 are respectively in tight contact with the two. In order to install the knob spring 103 , a spring positioning boss 108 is provided on the rear cover 104 for sleeve engagement of one end of the knob spring 103 , and a spring slot 107 is provided on the end surface of the knob inner shaft 102 for inserting the other end of the knob spring 103 .

[0037] When there is no external force pressing the back cover 104, due to the spring force of the knob spring 103, the inner teeth 105 of the knob housing 101 and the outer teeth 106 of the knob inner shaft 102 are disengaged and not engaged. At this time, rotating the knob housing 101 will not drive the knob inner shaft 102 to rotate, thereby achieving a protective function. When the back cover 104 is pressed, the knob housing 101 will cause the knob spring 103 to compress, so that the inner teeth 105 of the knob housing 101 and the outer teeth 106 of the knob inner shaft 102 are engaged. At this time, rotating the knob housing 101 can drive the knob inner shaft 102 to rotate, thereby achieving a rotation adjustment function. Therefore, the special structure of the adjustment knob 1 can prevent the current pipeline position from changing due to the arbitrary rotation of the adjustment knob 1.

[0038] In addition, in order to prevent the clamp arm adjusting screw from rotating at will, the control end of the clamp arm adjusting screw is connected with an adjusting knob 1. When a specific pipe diameter needs to be clamped, pressing and rotating the adjusting knob 1 can drive the clamp arm adjusting screw of the clamping mechanism to rotate, thereby adjusting the clamp arm 302 to a suitable position, so that the appropriate clamping force is generated after the wrench 303 is turned to clamp the pipe.

[0039] When clamping the pipe, the device needs to be adjusted and set first. The specific setting method is:

[0040] S1. According to the diameter of the pipeline, press and rotate the adjusting knob 1 so that the indicating scales 204 of the two supporting square rods 202 correspond to the diameter of the pipeline, and then place the device on the pipeline with the two supporting square rods 202 as support. At this time, the wrench 303 is in a tightened and locked state. After that, press and rotate the adjusting knobs 1 on both sides of the clamping mechanism so that the clamping arms 302 clamp the pipeline;

[0041] S2. After S1, the clamping force is very small. Therefore, it is necessary to reopen the wrench 303, remove the device and readjust the adjusting knobs 1 on both sides of the clamping mechanism again, and slightly adjust the clamping arm 302 in the direction slightly smaller than the pipe diameter. The specific adjustment size depends on the actual clamping force. The smaller the set pipe diameter to be clamped is compared with the pipe to be clamped, the greater the clamping force will be. At the same time, it also requires a greater force to push the wrench 303 during clamping. Therefore, in actual use, it can be adjusted to an appropriate amount according to the actual situation.

[0042] S3. After setting, each time the device is used, only need to place the device on the pipe and then turn the wrench 303 to the locking position, and the device will be accurately clamped and positioned on the pipe.

[0043] The present utility model has been described in combination with the best embodiments, but the present utility model is not limited to the disclosed embodiments above, and should cover various modifications and equivalent combinations made according to the essence of the present utility model.
