Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat-insulating pipe production, in particular to a spray winding device for heat-insulating pipes. Background Art
[0002] Insulated pipes, also known as heat-insulated pipes, are primarily used for the transportation of liquids, gases, and other media, and are widely used in a variety of fields. By employing specific materials and processes, they reduce energy consumption caused by temperature loss during the transportation process, as well as the impact of pipeline temperature on the external environment.
[0003] Polyurethane has an extremely low thermal conductivity, far lower than traditional insulation materials. This means it can more effectively prevent heat transfer, thereby reducing heat loss and improving energy efficiency. Therefore, polyurethane is sprayed on the outside of insulated pipes to improve their insulation effectiveness. Furthermore, since insulated pipes are often buried underground, to extend their service life and slow their corrosion rate, a layer of polyethylene is often applied to the outside of the polyurethane to protect the polyurethane insulation from mechanical damage and provide corrosion resistance and waterproofing.
[0004] This solution proposes a spraying and winding device for an insulated pipe, which completes the spraying of the pipe body insulation layer and the winding of the outer protective layer. Utility Model Content

[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a spray winding device for an insulation pipe, comprising:
[0041] Support structure 100;
[0042] The conveying structure 200 and the supporting structure 100 are both provided with a plurality of them. The supporting structure 100 and the conveying structure 200 are alternately arranged to form a conveying line. The conveying structure 200 drives the insulated pipe to move;
[0043] Auxiliary side rails 300, the auxiliary side rails 300 are arranged on the side of the conveyor line;
[0044] Spraying structure 400, spraying insulation material onto the outer wall of the insulation pipe to form an insulation layer, the spraying structure 400 is located at the starting end of the conveying line;
[0045] The winding structure 500 has a reel that is rotatably disposed on the auxiliary side rail 300 , and the outer protective layer is wound around the outside of the thermal insulation layer by the reel.
[0046] During the production process, the insulated pipe needs to go through the processes of shot blasting and rust removal - insulation layer spraying - outer protective layer winding - spray cooling to complete the production. After the pipe body of the insulated pipe is shot blasted and rust removed, it is placed on the spray winding device, and the pipe body is gradually transported backward through the conveying structure 200. When the pipe body is transported to the spraying structure 400, the spraying structure 400 sprays the insulation material to the outside of the pipe body to form an insulation layer. After the spraying is completed, the pipe is gradually transported to the winding structure 500. Driven by the conveying structure 200, the insulated pipe rotates and moves forward. This movement trend causes the outer protective layer to gradually wrap around the outside of the insulation layer, protecting the insulation layer and preventing it from being scratched and corroded during use, resulting in insulation failure. Since the overall thickness of the insulated pipe will change during the spraying and winding process, by alternately arranging different support structures 100 in the conveying structure 200 and selecting the support height of the support structure 100, the insulated pipe can still stably contact with the next conveying structure 200 after the thickness changes and be gradually transported by the conveying structure 200.
[0047] In order to prevent incomplete spraying of the rigid polyurethane, multiple spraying structures 400 may be provided to perform simultaneous spraying on both sides of the insulation pipe or to perform multiple spraying operations during the transportation process.
[0048] The conveying structure 200 includes:
[0049] There are two conveying rollers 210, both of which are in contact with the insulation pipe;
[0050] The first base 220 is located below the conveying roller 210. A driving component is arranged in the first base 220 and is drivingly connected to the conveying roller 210.
[0051] The second base 230 is provided with a lifting cylinder 240 . One end of the lifting cylinder 240 is connected to the first base 220 . The lifting cylinder 240 drives the first base 220 to move up and down.
[0052] By setting a lifting cylinder 240 to adjust the height of the first base 220, the spray-wrapping device can transport and process insulated pipes of different diameters, thereby improving the versatility of the spray-wrapping device. In order to ensure the stability of the first base 220 during the lifting process, four guide rods 250 are provided to limit the lifting trajectory of the first base 220 to ensure that the first base 220 is lifted and lowered stably.
[0053] The support structure 100 comprises:
[0054] A support plate 110, with a through slot 111 formed on the top of the support plate 110;
[0055] A side plate 120 , the side plate 120 is located on one side of the support plate 110 ;
[0056] The protective pad 130 is located between the support plate 110 and the side plate 120 , and the heat-insulating pipe abuts against the protective pad 130 .
[0057] The insulated pipe is placed on the protective pads 130 of the support plate 110 and the side plate 120. The protective pads 130 are provided to prevent scratches on the pipe body, the insulation layer or the outer protective layer during transportation.
[0058] Specifically, the side plate 120 includes a first plate body 121 and a second plate body 122. The first plate body 121 is provided with a through groove 111. The first plate body 121 is rotatably connected to a shift cylinder 140. The other end of the shift cylinder 140 is rotatably connected to the support plate 110. The second plate body 122 is rotatably connected to the support plate 110.
[0059] Because both ends of the repositioning cylinder 140 are rotatably connected, they can adjust the rotational position of the side plate 120. Changing the position of the side plate 120 can adjust the diameter of the passage through the slot 111, allowing the support structure 100 to pass through insulated pipes of different diameters, thereby improving the versatility of the spray wrap structure 500.
[0060] Specifically, the insulation layer can be made of rigid polyurethane. Polyurethane has a low thermal conductivity, effectively reducing heat conduction and providing excellent insulation. Furthermore, after foaming, it produces a unique cell structure, which further enhances the insulation effect. To shorten production time and ensure effective insulation, the insulation material sprayed on the exterior of the tube is rigid polyurethane. Rigid polyurethane foams quickly after spraying and has sufficient strength for transport.
[0061] The outer sheath can be made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). HDPE itself offers excellent thermal insulation. When combined with the polyurethane insulation layer, it forms a robust insulation system, reducing heat dissipation within the pipe. HDPE also offers excellent corrosion resistance, resisting attack by soil, water, and other chemicals, protecting the interior of the pipe from damage. It also exhibits excellent aging resistance, maintaining stable physical and chemical properties over long periods of use.
[0062] Furthermore, a trimming structure 600 is included. The trimming structure 600 is located between the spraying structure 400 and the winding structure 500 and is used to trim the thermal insulation layer.
[0063] Specifically, the trimming structure 600 includes an angled scraper and a cylinder. To ensure a smooth and even insulation layer after spraying, the trimming structure 600 is configured to trim the sprayed insulation layer. When the insulated pipe enters the trimming structure 600, the scraper scrapes away any protruding portions of the insulation layer, flattening the insulation layer.
[0064] Furthermore, a cooling structure 700 is included, and the cooling structure 700 cools down the wound insulation pipe. Specifically, the cooling structure 700 is a spray head, and the spray head is located on at least one side of the insulation pipe.
[0065] After the outer sheath is wrapped, the insulated pipe needs to be sprayed to cool it down. This cooling process ensures that the polyurethane insulation layer cures at an appropriate temperature while maintaining the good performance of the polyethylene outer sheath. During the cooling process, the insulation and outer sheath materials will undergo some shrinkage and stress changes, which improves the bonding strength between the two layers and strengthens the connection between the insulation and outer sheath. Since the cooling method for the insulated pipe is spray cooling, it is necessary to ensure that other structures in this area are waterproofed accordingly.
[0066] Furthermore, the device includes a base frame 800, which extends along the conveying direction of the insulated pipe. The support structure 100, conveying structure 200, and spraying structure 400 are all mounted on the base frame 800. Since mechanical vibration is inevitably generated during the entire operation process, which not only generates noise but also causes the components of each structure to loosen, the base frame 800 is provided to connect the various structures into a whole, improve their overall stability, reduce vibration, or share vibration to solve the above problems.
[0067] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made by utilizing the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
