Specific embodiments

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0023] Refer to Figures 1-4 , a temporary fixing structure for the welded pipe orifice of a steel pipe according to the present invention includes a fixed frame 1 and a pipe penetration 2. The pipe penetration 2 is a circular pipe. The fixed frame 1 includes a frame body 101 in the shape of a cuboid and an arc-shaped support block 102. The arc-shaped support frame 102 is fixedly installed inside the fixed frame 1, and the arc surface of the arc-shaped support frame 102 supports the outer wall surface of the pipe penetration 2.

[0024] Two pipe penetrations 2 are coaxially and spacedly installed inside the fixed frame 1. The spaced space between the two pipe penetrations 2 forms a working space 5 for welding. The function of the working space 5 is, firstly, to observe the alignment of the pipe orifices when adjusting the position of the steel pipe, and secondly, for the staff to perform welding operations on the two pipe orifices from the position of the working space 5.

[0025] A position adjustment mechanism 4 for adjusting the position of the steel pipe is installed on the side wall of the pipe penetration 2. Specifically, after the position adjustment mechanism 4 adjusts the position of the steel pipe, the steel pipe is fixed at the adjusted position, so that the alignment state of the pipe orifices of the two steel pipes remains stable, which is convenient for welding.

[0026] A protection structure 3 is installed on the top of the fixed frame 1. A ladder 301 leading to the top of the fixed frame 1 is provided on one side of the protection structure 3. The ladder 301 is connected to the top of the fixed frame 1 for the staff to climb onto the top of the fixed frame 1.

[0027] According to different construction projects, the diameters of the steel pipes to be welded are different. When welding steel pipes with a diameter of less than 1 meter, the staff can stand on the ground and conveniently reach various positions outside the pipe orifice of the steel pipe for welding operations; while for steel pipes with a diameter of more than 1 meter, especially for steel pipes with diameters of 2 meters and 3 meters, it is very difficult for the staff to directly reach the upper and top positions of the steel pipe when standing on the ground, and generally high-altitude operations are required.

[0028] When the present solution is used to temporarily fix a steel pipe longer than 2 meters, a ladder 301 may be provided to facilitate workers to climb onto the top of the fixing frame 1 and perform welding operations on the pipe opening from above the steel pipe.

[0029] There are multiple position adjustment mechanisms 4, which are respectively located on the top and side of the through-tube 2. The positions of the steel pipes are adjusted from the top and both sides of the through-tube 2 so that the two steel pipes are located as close to the vertical center line of the through-tube 2 as possible, and the pipe openings are aligned.

[0030] The protection structure 3 includes a guardrail 302 and a steel mesh plate 303. The steel mesh plate 303 is installed at the inner bottom of the guardrail 302. The steel mesh plate 303 is fixedly installed on the top of the frame 101. The screw seat 403 at the top passes through the steel mesh plate 303.

[0031] The guardrail 302 is connected to the ladder 301, and the ladder 301 is connected to the top of the fixing frame 1. The top position adjustment mechanism 4 is located on the inner side of the guardrail 302. When temporarily fixing a steel pipe with a diameter exceeding 2 meters, the staff climbs to the top of the fixing frame 1 through the ladder 301, and then operates the top position adjustment mechanism 4 inside the guardrail 302 to improve safety.

[0032] The position adjustment mechanism 4 includes a disc handle 401, a threaded rod 402, and a screw seat 403. The screw seat 403 is installed on the penetration tube 2 along the radial direction of the penetration tube 2. The threaded rod 402 is arranged inside the screw seat 403. The outer wall of the threaded rod 402 is processed with screw teeth. The inside of the screw seat 403 is processed with thread grooves. The threaded rod 402 and the screw seat 403 are threadedly connected. The threaded rod 402 passes through the side of the penetration tube 2. When the threaded rod 402 is twisted, the end of the threaded rod 402 located on the inner side of the penetration tube 2 presses against the steel pipe to adjust the position of the steel pipe.

[0033] A disc handle 401 is welded to one end of the threaded rod 402 away from the tube 2, and a labor-saving lever system is formed between the disc handle 401 and the threaded rod 402. Rotating the disc handle 401 drives the threaded rod 402 to be screwed in or out, thereby achieving a labor-saving effect and reducing the difficulty of operation.

[0034] An arc plate 404 is rotatably mounted on the threaded rod 402 at the top. The arc plate 404 is located at the end of the threaded rod 402 away from the disc handle 401. The arc plate 404 rotates horizontally with the axis of the threaded rod 402 as the center, pressing the steel pipe from the top down, mainly to prevent the steel pipe from obviously warping upward.

[0035] A top head 6 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 402 on the side. The top head 6 is located at one end of the threaded rod 402 away from the disc handle 401. The top head 6 includes a universal ball seat 601 and a universal ball 602. The universal ball seat 601 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 402. A universal ball 602 is rotatably installed at one end of the universal ball seat 601 away from the threaded rod 402. When the threaded rod 402 is screwed into the inside of the pipe 2, the threaded rod 402 drives the universal ball 602 through the universal ball seat 601 to abut against the outside of the steel pipe and close it, holding and pushing the steel pipe to move.

[0036] Since the pipe 2 itself is a circular pipe, when the steel pipe is pushed along the radial direction, in addition to lateral movement, the steel pipe will also have a longitudinal rise in the pipe 2. Therefore, during the movement of the steel pipe, there will be a positional change between the steel pipe and the top head 6. There is friction between the steel pipe and the top head 6. The universal ball 602 is rotatably installed in the universal ball seat 601, which can convert sliding friction into rolling friction, thereby reducing the resistance formed by this part of the friction encountered by the staff when turning the threaded rod 402.

[0037] Working principle: During use, a crane is used at the construction site to lift the steel pipe to be welded, and the steel pipe is inserted into the pipe 2 so that the pipe orifices of the two steel pipes abut against each other and the pipe orifices are located within the working space 5.

[0038] After the steel pipe at the construction site (taking a steel pipe with a diameter of 2 meters and a length of 10 meters as an example) is inserted into the pipe 2, since the pipe 2 itself is a circular pipe, the two steel pipes will automatically move closer to the center of the pipe 2. However, there will still be a deviation of several centimeters at the pipe orifices. At this time, the staff selects to operate one of the position adjustment mechanisms 4 on the side according to the deviation situation, turns the disc handle 401 to drive the threaded rod 402 to rotate, and abuts against the side of the steel pipe through the top head 6 to cause a slight positional deviation of the steel pipe.

[0039] It is possible to only adjust the position of one of the steel pipes, or to adjust the positions of the two steel pipes one after another to align the pipe orifices of the two steel pipes.

[0040] After the pipe orifices of the two steel pipes are aligned, climb up the steel mesh plate 303 through the ladder 301, turn the position adjustment mechanism 4 at the top to fix the positions of the two steel pipes from the top. Finally, the staff performs welding operations on the outside of the pipe orifices of the two steel pipes in the working space 5, or (enters the steel pipe) on the inside of the pipe orifices. After welding, the steel pipe is lifted and removed.

[0041] When hoisting the steel pipe, according to the situation, it can be padded at both axial ends of the pipe 2 to keep the bottom of the steel pipe horizontal and reduce the deformation amount of the steel pipe itself.

[0042] During actual use, it is possible to weld steel pipes with the same pipe diameter size (such as a steel pipe with a pipe diameter of 2 meters), and it is also possible to weld steel pipes with different pipe diameter sizes but a small difference in pipe diameter (such as welding two steel pipes with pipe diameters of 110 cm and 100 cm. Two steel pipes with too large a difference in pipe diameter have no practical welding significance. If necessary, other structures are generally used for connection).

[0043] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
