AI Technical Summary
Existing asbestos gaskets need to be manually held during flange installation, which is easy to be misaligned or dropped, especially inconvenient in flat flange installation without positioning convex and concave surfaces.
A circular asbestos gasket was designed with epitaxial strips extending on both sides, and tearing holes and pulling holes are processed at the junction of the sealing body and the epitaxial strips. In combination with a pulling tool, including a hook, a spring and a magnetic suspension ring, the spacer is fixed to the flange end surface by pulling the hook and a spring.
It realizes the correct installation of asbestos gaskets without the need for a dedicated person to control, which reduces construction personnel. The outer extension strip can be tear and removed after pre-tightening, and does not hinder the tightening of the bolts. The pulling tool is simple in structure, low in cost and easy to carry.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a gasket for flange sealing and a tool for installing the same. Background Art
[0002] When connecting pipeline flanges, gaskets are needed for sealing. Asbestos gaskets are widely used because of their low material cost, easy processing and high temperature resistance.
[0003] When installing a conventional asbestos gasket on a flange, someone needs to hold the gasket by hand to align it with the installation position. Otherwise, the gasket is likely to be misaligned or fall off during the alignment and installation process of the two flanges. Especially for a flat flange without convex and concave surfaces for gasket positioning, the installation is very inconvenient. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Aiming at the technical problems mentioned in the above background, the utility model provides an asbestos gasket for flange sealing and a pulling tool for installing the same. During installation, there is no need for a special person to hold the gasket by hand. Only by using this pulling tool can the asbestos gasket be fixed at the flange sealing end face.
[0005] Technical Solution: An asbestos gasket for flange sealing, which is characterized in that: the asbestos gasket is arranged as an annular sealing body and two extension strips extending from its symmetric two sides. The sealing body is installed at the flange sealing end face to play a sealing role, and the extension strips extend to the outside of the flange to play a fixing role; and, a plurality of tearing holes are processed at the junction of the sealing body and the extension strips, and a pulling hole is processed on the outside of the extension strips.
[0006] On the other hand, the utility model also provides a pulling tool for installing the asbestos gasket. The pulling tool includes a hook, a spring and a magnetic lifting ring; the hook is made of steel wire bent, the front part is a front hook, and the rear part is a tail ring. The front hook hooks on the pulling hole on the extension strip of the asbestos gasket, and the tail ring is connected to the spring; the magnetic lifting ring is composed of a pulling ring, a sheath and a magnet, and is adsorbed on the steel pipe outside the flange. The asbestos gasket is fixed at the flange end face by pulling the spring.
[0007] Further, a U-shaped middle ring is welded on the outside of the front hook of the hook to form a closed loop with the front hook. The size of the closed loop hole is larger than the finger diameter, which is convenient for the finger to be inserted into the middle ring, and the extension strip of the asbestos gasket is torn and disconnected by pulling the hook.
[0008] Compared with the existing background art, at least one of the above technical solutions adopted by one or more embodiments of this specification can achieve the following beneficial effects:
[0009] First, when installing the asbestos gasket, it is fixed with the aid of the pulling tool, eliminating the need for a dedicated person to hold it by hand, reducing the number of construction workers. Second, the extension strip of the asbestos gasket can be torn off after some bolts are pre-tightened during installation, without hindering the tightening of the remaining bolts. Finally, the pulling tool has a simple structure, low manufacturing cost, and is convenient to carry.
[0010] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are merely exemplary and explanatory, and do not limit the present utility model.
[0011] Other features and aspects of the present utility model will become clear from the following detailed description of exemplary embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation manners
[0023] Various exemplary embodiments, features and usage methods of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote elements having the same or similar functions. Although various aspects of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, the drawings do not have to be drawn to scale unless otherwise specified.
[0024] In addition, in order to better illustrate the present utility model, numerous specific details are given in the following detailed implementation manners. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model can be implemented without some specific details. In some instances, methods, means and elements well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail so as to highlight the gist of the present utility model.
[0025] As Figure 1 shown, an asbestos gasket for flange sealing and a pulling tool for its installation include an asbestos gasket 1, a hook 2, a spring 3, and a magnetic lifting ring 4; among them, the hook 2, the spring 3, and the magnetic lifting ring 4 form a pulling tool for installing the asbestos gasket 1.
[0026] As Figure 2 shown, the asbestos gasket is provided with a circular sealing body 101 and two extension strips 102 extending from its symmetric two sides. The sealing body is installed at the sealing end face of the flange 5 to play a sealing role, and the extension strips extend to the outside of the flange 5 to play a fixing role; and, several tearing holes 103 are processed at the junction of the sealing body and the extension strips, and a pulling hole 104 is processed on the outside of the extension strips.
[0027] As Figures 3 to 5 shown, the hook is made of wire bending. The front part is a front hook 201, and the rear part is a tail ring 203. The front hook hooks on the pulling hole 104 on the extension strip 102 of the asbestos gasket 1, and the tail ring connects the spring; a U-shaped middle ring 202 is welded outside the front hook 201 of the hook 2 to form a closed loop with the front hook. The size of the closed loop hole is larger than the finger diameter, which is convenient for the finger to be inserted into the middle ring, and the extension strip 102 of the asbestos gasket 1 is torn and disconnected by pulling the hook; the magnetic lifting ring is composed of a pulling ring 401, a sheath 402, and a magnet 403, adsorbs on the steel pipe 6 outside the flange 5, and fixes the asbestos gasket at the end face of the flange 5 by pulling the spring.
[0028] As Figures 6 to 9As shown, one asbestos gasket 1 of the present utility model is used in conjunction with two of the said pulling tools. The specific usage method is as follows:
[0029] First, magnetically suspend the magnetic suspension rings 4 of the two pulling tools symmetrically above and below or left and right on the steel pipe 6 outside a flange 5. Stick the asbestos gasket 1 by hand at the sealing end face of the flange 5. Hook the two hooks 2 on the pulling holes 104 on the extension strip 102 of the asbestos gasket 1. Let go of the hand and adjust the position of the asbestos gasket 1 to align with the sealing end face of the flange 5. The asbestos gasket 1 is pulled and adhered to the sealing end face of the flange 5 and fixed in place, as Figure 6 shown.
[0030] Then, align another flange with the gasketed flange 5, and the two flanges 5 clamp the asbestos gasket 1, as Figure 7 shown; Connect some bolts and nuts on the two flanges and pre-tighten them to clamp the asbestos gasket 1. By pulling the hook 2, tear off the extension strip 102 of the asbestos gasket 1 and remove the said pulling tool, as Figure 8 shown.
[0031] Finally, connect all the bolts and nuts on the two flanges and tighten them to achieve the purpose of gasket sealing, as Figure 9 shown.
