[0023] The vertical side plate 5 is provided with two first threaded holes; it also includes two first bolts 6; when the first steel pipe tile 1 and the second steel pipe tile 2 are pieced together to form a vertical longitudinal seam, the vertical arc plate 4 fits against the outer walls of the penstock on both sides of the vertical longitudinal seam, and the two first bolts 6 are respectively screwed into the two first threaded holes, and the end parts of the two first bolts 6 respectively abut against the inner walls of the penstock on both sides of the vertical longitudinal seam.
[0024] In this embodiment, when the first steel pipe tile 1 and the second steel pipe tile 2 are pieced together to form a vertical longitudinal seam, at a total of four points, namely the apex and the bottom point of the two vertical longitudinal seams, the vertical arc plate 4 fits against the outer walls of the penstock on both sides of the vertical longitudinal seam, the two first bolts 6 are correspondingly screwed into the two first threaded holes, and the end parts of the two first bolts 6 respectively abut against the inner walls of the penstock on both sides of the vertical longitudinal seam, so as to clamp the first steel pipe tile 1 and the second steel pipe tile 2, so that during the process of turning the penstock 90 degrees before longitudinal seam welding of the penstock, and during the process of the operator standing inside the penstock to weld the longitudinal seam after turning, the first steel pipe tile 1 and the second steel pipe tile 2 will not fall off.
[0025] As a preferred embodiment, see Figure 1 , the end parts of the first bolts 6 are all connected with steel balls 7.
[0026] In this embodiment, the end parts of the two first bolts 6 respectively abut against the inner walls of the penstock on both sides of the vertical longitudinal seam through the steel balls 7; the presence of the steel balls 7 enables the first bolts 6 to more fully abut against the inner wall of the penstock.
[0027] As a preferred embodiment, see Figure 1 , it also includes two nuts 8; the two nuts 8 are respectively connected to the two first threaded holes; the first bolts 6 are sequentially screwed into the nuts 8 and the first threaded holes.
[0028] In this embodiment, the setting of the nut 8 makes the length of the first bolt 6 in the threaded hole longer, and further makes the first bolt 6 more stable after abutting against the inner wall of the penstock.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 5 , it further includes an arc-shaped gasket 9 and a second bolt 10; the arc-shaped gasket 9 is located inside the vertical arc-shaped plate 4, and the radian of the arc-shaped gasket 9 is the same as that of the penstock; a groove 9a is opened on the inner side of the arc-shaped gasket 9, and the groove 9a communicates with a second threaded hole; a third threaded hole is opened on the inner side of the vertical arc-shaped plate 4; the second bolt 10 is sequentially screwed into the second threaded hole and the third threaded hole, and the head of the second bolt 10 is located in the groove 9a.
[0030] In this embodiment, when the vertical arc-shaped plate 4 is worn or deformed due to various reasons, resulting in incomplete fitting with the outer wall of the penstock, the arc-shaped gasket 9 is installed inside the vertical arc-shaped plate 4, and the arc-shaped gasket 9 fits the outer wall of the penstock, and the arc-shaped gasket 9 plays a good backup role.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , the vertical side plate 5 is an arc-shaped plate and its radian is the same as that of the penstock; the central axis of the first threaded hole passes through the center of the cross-section of the penstock.
[0032] In this embodiment, the direction line of the first bolt 6 screwed into the first threaded hole passes through the center of the cross-section of the penstock. Therefore, the force on the end of the first bolt 6 when abutting against the inner wall of the penstock is better, making the end of the first bolt 6 more stable when abutting against the inner wall of the penstock.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the vertical side plate 5 is provided with a through slot 11 along the longitudinal seam of the penstock.
[0034] In this embodiment, when the penstock is flipped 90 degrees, the vertical longitudinal seam becomes a horizontal longitudinal seam.
