[0002] In newly built (renovated) thermal power plants, some large-diameter, high-temperature steam transmission pipelines are arranged in an inverted L-shape, that is, the top of the large-diameter, high-temperature steam transmission riser needs to be turned 90 degrees before being connected to the high-altitude horizontal steam pipeline. In order to overcome the thermal expansion of the horizontal steam pipeline, it is necessary to set an expansion joint at the top of the steam riser to absorb the left and right horizontal expansion. The expansion joint needs to be set vertically at the top of the large-diameter, high-temperature steam transmission riser to effectively absorb the expansion of the steam pipe in the horizontal direction. How to set the structure of the expansion joint and hoist the expansion joint of this structure to the high-altitude installation position has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved on site.

[0007] Positioning basket bolts for the upper and lower ports of the expansion joint are provided on the front outer side, the left outer side, the rear outer side and the right outer side of the rectangular tubular cover.
[0008] A method for constructing and positioning an expansion joint at an aerial L-shaped bend in a high-temperature steam pipeline comprises a steam delivery riser, an aerial steam delivery horizontal pipe, an expansion joint upper port pipe joint, an expansion joint lower port pipe joint, and a bellows. A 90-degree elbow pipe fitting is connected to the left end of the steam delivery horizontal pipe, and a bellows is fixedly connected between the expansion joint upper port pipe joint and the expansion joint lower port pipe joint, comprising the following steps:
[0009] Step 1: On the outer surface of the expansion joint lower end pipe joint, crescent-shaped horizontal support plates are fixedly installed at equal intervals of 90 degrees.
[0010] The second step is to make a rectangular tubular cover and process a horizontal long through hole on the upper part of each of the four vertical surfaces of the rectangular tubular cover;

The upper port of the expansion joint composed of the upper port pipe joint, the lower port pipe joint and the bellows can swing in the left and right directions or the front and back directions in the rectangular tubular cover, thereby absorbing the horizontal expansion of the L-shaped bend in the air of the high-temperature steam pipeline.
[0013] A cantilevered connecting beam is fixedly connected to the crescent-shaped horizontal supporting plate, and the outer end of the cantilevered connecting beam is welded to the inner vertical surface of the rectangular tubular cover, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the lower end of the rectangular tubular cover and the lower port pipe joint of the expansion joint.
[0014] Step 5: Make a positioning turnbuckle bolt. Connect an upper inverted L-shaped screw to the upper end of the screw sleeve of the positioning turnbuckle bolt, and set an inverted U-shaped hook at the top of the upper inverted L-shaped screw. Connect a lower L-shaped screw to the lower end of the screw sleeve of the positioning turnbuckle bolt, and set a U-shaped hook at the lower end of the lower L-shaped screw.
[0015] Step 6. Hook the inverted U-shaped hook to the top of the expansion joint upper port pipe joint; hook the U-shaped hook to the bottom of the expansion joint lower port pipe joint; set an upper jackscrew between the upper end of the upper inverted L-shaped screw and the outer vertical surface of the expansion joint upper port pipe joint, and set a lower jackscrew between the lower end of the lower L-shaped screw and the outer vertical surface of the expansion joint lower port pipe joint; a positioning basket bolt for the upper and lower ports of the expansion joint is set on the front outer side, left outer side, rear outer side and right outer side of the rectangular tubular cover; and by adjusting the four positioning basket bolts, the upper jackscrew and the lower jackscrew, the central axis of the expansion joint upper port pipe joint is coincident with the central axis of the expansion joint lower port pipe joint, thereby realizing the vertical positioning of the expansion joint.
[0016] Step 7: Hoist the expansion joint vertically positioned in step 6 between the top of the steam delivery riser in the air and the 90-degree elbow fitting. Then, butt-weld the upper end pipe joint of the expansion joint to the lower end of the 90-degree elbow fitting; butt-weld the lower end pipe joint of the expansion joint to the top end of the steam delivery riser;
[0017] Step 8. Remove the positioning basket bolts from the lower port pipe joint and the upper port pipe joint of the expansion joint by rotating the upper inverted L-shaped screw and the lower L-shaped screw respectively, so that the upper end of the expansion joint can swing freely left and right or front and back in the rectangular tubular cover to absorb the expansion of the steam conveying horizontal pipe.
[0018] The present invention constructs an expansion joint structure at the top of the steam riser, which uses a vertically arranged expansion joint to absorb the expansion of the horizontal steam pipe arranged in an L-shape in the air. The expansion joint has a simple structure and is easy to install. Since the expansion joint is a flexible body, the expansion joint often twists during the hoisting process, causing the vertical center axis of the expansion joint to deviate from the center axes of the upper and lower risers. The present invention develops a connection and positioning method between the positioning basket bolt and the expansion joint, which achieves the coincidence of the center lines of the upper and lower ends of the expansion joint during the hoisting process, and facilitates the operation of welding and connecting the expansion joint at high altitudes.
