DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. The described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 , a low-friction pipe support includes a base 1. Installation holes 2 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the base 1. Gaskets 3 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the base 1, and the inner diameter of the gasket 3 is not less than the diameter of the installation hole 2. The base 1 can be installed on the base through the installation hole 2. The gasket 3 can reinforce the fixed screws to prevent the screws from loosening. Two lower fixing rings 4 are welded to the top of the base 1. Upper fixing rings 5 are provided on the tops of the two lower fixing rings 4, and the lower fixing ring 4 and the upper fixing ring 5 are fixed by a locking mechanism. Arc-shaped inner walls of the lower fixing ring 4 and the upper fixing ring 5 are provided with chutes 10. A carriage 8 is slidably connected in the chute 10. A plurality of evenly distributed rolling grooves 14 are provided on the circumferential outer wall of the carriage 8. A ball 15 is rolled in the rolling groove 14, and the ball 15 is in contact with the chute 10. Guide components for making the carriage 8 move only in one direction are provided between the two inner walls of the plurality of chutes 10. Place the pipe in the carriage 8 on the lower fixing ring 4, and use the locking mechanism to fix the upper fixing ring 5 and the lower fixing ring 4, so that the carriage 8 in the upper fixing ring 5 and the lower fixing ring 4 clamps and fixes the pipe to support and fix the pipe. When the pipe moves, the pipe drives the carriage 8 to move, so that the carriage 8 moves in the chute 10. Under the action of the ball 15, the sliding friction between the carriage 8 and the chute 10 can be changed into rolling friction, so that the carriage 8 slides easily, reducing the direct friction between the pipe support and the pipe and improving the protection effect of the pipe support.

[0023] Among them, the locking mechanism includes a plurality of through holes 9. The plurality of through holes 9 are respectively provided on both sides of the lower fixing ring 4 and the upper fixing ring 5. Hexagon bolts 6 are inserted into the plurality of through holes 9. A hexagon nut is threadedly connected to the circumferential outer side of the hexagon bolt 6, and the hexagon nut is in contact with the lower fixing ring 4. The hexagon bolt 6 passes through the through holes 9 of the upper fixing ring 5 and the lower fixing ring 4 from above the upper fixing ring 5, and then the hexagon nut is used to cooperate with the hexagon bolt 6 to fix the lower fixing ring 4 and the upper fixing ring 5, so that the carriage 8 in the upper fixing ring 5 and the lower fixing ring 4 clamps and fixes the pipe to support and fix the pipe, improving the fixing effect of the pipe support.

[0024] Among them, the guiding component is the guiding rod 13. The guiding rod 13 is welded between the inner walls on both sides of the sliding groove 10, and the guiding rod 13 passes through the carriage 8 and is slidably connected to the carriage 8. The guiding rod 13 guides the moving direction of the carriage 8, enabling the carriage 8 to only slide horizontally, avoiding the rotation of the carriage 8 and friction with the pipeline, improving the protection effect of the pipe support. A placement cavity 11 is formed in the carriage 8, and a lubricating fluid is provided in the placement cavity 11. The guiding rod 13 is in contact with the lubricating fluid, adding lubrication between the guiding rod 13 and the carriage 8, reducing the friction force between the carriage 8 and the guiding rod 13, and thus making it easier for the carriage 8 to slide, further reducing the wear between the carriage 8 and the pipeline. A filling port 12 is formed on one side of the carriage 8, and the filling port 12 is communicated with the placement cavity 11. A plug 16 is provided on the circumferential inner wall of the filling port 12. Through the filling port 12, the lubricating fluid can be filled into the placement cavity 11, and it can be replenished and replaced after the lubricating fluid is consumed, improving the service life of the pipe support. Rubber pads 7 are bonded to the arc-shaped inner walls of multiple carriages 8, enabling the rubber pads 7 to contact the pipeline, which not only increases the friction force between the carriage 8 and the pipeline but also prevents the pipeline from directly contacting the carriage 8, thereby avoiding wear caused by the carriage 8 during the movement of the pipeline and further improving the protection effect of the pipe support.

[0025] Working principle: During use, the pipeline is placed in the carriage 8 within the lower fixing ring 4 and the upper fixing frame 5. Then, the hexagon bolt 6 passes through the through hole 9 of the upper fixing ring 5 and the lower fixing ring 4 from above the upper fixing ring 5, and then the hexagon nut is used to cooperate with the hexagon bolt 6 to fix the lower fixing ring 4 and the upper fixing ring 5, thereby clamping and fixing the pipeline by the carriage 8 within the upper fixing ring 5 and the lower fixing ring 4. When the pipeline moves, the pipeline drives the carriage 8 to move, causing the carriage 8 to move within the sliding groove 10. Under the action of the balls 15, the sliding friction between the carriage 8 and the sliding groove 10 can be changed into rolling friction, enabling the carriage 8 to slide easily and reducing the direct friction between the pipe support and the pipeline.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that: For those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
