[0002] Crude oil extracted by pumping units needs to be transported to a gathering station via pipelines. To prevent the crude oil from clogging the pipelines during transportation, heating cables and electric heating pipes are typically used to heat the pipelines. While underground heating equipment is less susceptible to damage, above-ground heating equipment failure often leads to pipeline blockages. In extremely cold weather, pipelines in these areas can also become clogged.
[0003] In the prior art, the invention patent application publication number CN113175580A provides a heating device connected to the outside of an oil pipeline, which can adjust the angle and height according to the environment so that the heating component can fit the surface of the oil pipeline. It includes a first platform, a second platform, a third platform, a heating component, a horizontal drive component, an angle adjustment component, and a height adjustment component; the second platform is located between the first and third platforms and is arranged parallel to the first platform; the height adjustment component is connected between the first and second platforms; the angle adjustment component is connected between the second and third platforms; the horizontal drive component is installed on the third platform; there are two groups of heating components, each group of heating components includes an arc-shaped heating plate, a control element, and a base; the arc-shaped heating plate is installed on the base; the control element is installed inside the base; the bases of the two groups of heating components are both connected to the horizontal drive component and are arranged facing each other.
[0004] In the process of realizing the present utility model, the inventors found that there are at least the following problems in the prior art: 1.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] In order to clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the present invention is described in detail below through specific implementation methods and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0029] Figures 1 to 6 An embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, a pipeline electric heating device includes two semi-cylindrical heating sleeves 11, the pipeline electric heating device also includes an operating rod 1, a right clamping rod 3, a left clamping rod 4, a middle pressure rod 5, a top plate 6, a roller 7, a guide plate 8, and a rotating shaft 12. The openings of the two heating sleeves 11 are arranged opposite to each other, the lower end of the right clamping rod 3 is connected to the outer side of the right heating sleeve 11, the lower end of the left clamping rod 4 is connected to the outer side of the left heating sleeve 11, the left clamping rod 4 crosses the right clamping rod 3, and the middle parts of the left clamping rod 4 and the right clamping rod 3 are both installed on the rotating shaft 12; the upper end of the operating rod 1 is connected to the rotating shaft 12, and the top of the operating rod 1 is The guide plate 8 is C-shaped. A guide hole is provided on each side of the guide plate 8. The upper ends of the left clamping rod 4 and the right clamping rod 3 extend through the guide holes on either side of the guide plate 8. The guide plate 8 is positioned horizontally, and the intermediate pressure rod 5 is positioned vertically directly below the guide plate 8. The top of the intermediate pressure rod 5 is connected to the bottom of the guide plate 8, and the bottom of the intermediate pressure rod 5 is connected to the top plate 6. Rollers 7 are mounted on the bottom of the top plate 6 via mounting brackets. Three rollers 7 are positioned directly below the top plate 6, distributed along the circumference of the outer surface of the pipe. One roller 7 is positioned directly below the top plate 6, and the other two rollers 7 are symmetrically positioned on either side of the top plate 6. Rollers 7 are positioned on either side of the rollers 7, which are mounted in mounting brackets via bearings. The mounting brackets are mounted on the bottom of the top plate 6. A counterweight 2 is also provided at the bottom of the operating lever 1. By providing the counterweight 2 at the bottom of the operating lever 1, the two heating jackets 11 can be merged during operation by the weight of the counterweight 2 without pulling down the operating lever 1, ensuring that the two heating jackets 11 remain merged during the heating process.
[0030] The C-shape at the top of the operating rod 1 bypasses the pipeline, and the counterweight 2 at the bottom of the operating rod 1 is located directly below the center of the pipeline electric heating device.
[0031] The pipeline electric heating device also includes a pressure plate 9 and a spring 10. A guide hole is provided on each side of the pressure plate 9. The upper ends of the left clamping rod 4 and the right clamping rod 3 pass through the guide holes on both sides of the pressure plate 9. The pressure plate 9 is horizontally arranged above the guide plate 8, and the spring 10 is arranged between the pressure plate 9 and the guide plate 8.

By providing the pressure plate 9 and the spring 10, the spread state of the two heating sleeves 11 can be maintained. Increasing the friction between the left clamping rod 4, the right clamping rod 3 and the rotating shaft 12 can also achieve the same effect.

The sleeve body 111 is semi-cylindrical, and the wall of the sleeve body 111 is corrugated in the axial direction. A sealing plate 112 is provided at each end of the sleeve body 111. The sealing plate 112 is semi-circular, and the inner diameter of the sealing plate 112 is equal to the outer diameter of the pipeline. By providing a sealing plate 112 at each end of the sleeve body 111, the sealing performance of the heating sleeve 11 to the heating position of the pipeline is improved, and the heating efficiency is improved. The heating sleeve 11 also includes a guide ring 113 and a support rod 114. The guide ring 113 is provided in the middle of the outer side of the sleeve body 111. A plurality of guide rings 113 are evenly provided along the axial direction of the sleeve body 111. The support rod 114 passes through each guide ring 113, and blocks are provided at both ends of the support rod 114. Because the sleeve 111 has a corrugated wall, it is prone to axial collapse and bending. The guide ring 113 and support rod 114 prevent deformation of the sleeve 111. The heating sleeve 11 also includes a semi-annular heating rod 115, which is perpendicular to the axis of the sleeve 111. Multiple heating rods 115 are evenly spaced on the inside of the sleeve 111. The heating rods 115 are connected to a power source via wires, which are equipped with switches.
[0035] When the pipeline needs to be heated, first manually open the two heating sleeves 11, and move the guide plate 8 close to the rotating shaft 12; then use the operating lever 1 to move the electric heating device to the top of the pipeline to be heated, and make the roller 7 contact the top of the pipeline; pull down the operating lever 1, the guide plate 8 remains in position under the support of the medium pressure rod 5, the rotating shaft 12 moves down, the guide plate 8 moves away from the rotating shaft 12, the angle between the left clamping rod 4 and the right clamping rod 3 becomes smaller, and the two heating sleeves 11 merge into a complete cylinder and wrap the pipeline; at this time, start the heating rod 115 in the heating sleeve 11 to heat. The heating length can be adjusted by controlling the two operating levers 1 at both ends of the heating sleeve 11; drag the operating lever 1, and the electric heating device can move on the top of the pipeline via the roller 7, improving the efficiency of pipeline dredging.
[0036] Although the above describes the specific implementation methods of the utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it does not limit the scope of protection of the utility model. On the basis of the technical solution of the utility model, various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the utility model.
