DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] The embodiment of the present application provides a conveying platform for spiral pipe welding, which can solve the problem in the related art that manual handling is required during the spiral pipe welding process, which is inconvenient to operate.

[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 3A conveying platform for spiral pipe welding includes; a support frame 1, and a bracket 2 slidably arranged on the support frame 1, the support frame 1 is also provided with a lifting member 3, the lifting member 3 is connected to the bracket 2 and is used to drive the bracket 2 to rise and fall; a discharge seat 4 is provided on the bracket 2, and the discharge seat 4 has a groove for accommodating a pipe, and a plurality of pressing members 5 are relatively arranged on the bracket 2, and the plurality of pressing members 5 are distributed along both sides of the length of the discharge seat 4, and the pressing members 5 are used to fix the pipe on the discharge seat 4; the pressing member 5 includes a mounting plate 51 arranged on the bracket 2, and a driving member 52 is provided on the mounting plate 51, and a fastening block 53 is provided on the driving member 52, and the driving member 52 is used to drive the fastening block 53 close to or away from the discharge seat 4.

[0032] First, the operator places the spiral pipe to be welded into the unloading seat 4 on the bracket 2. The groove design of the unloading seat 4 provides preliminary positioning of the pipe, preventing it from slipping during transportation. Next, the lifting member 3 is activated, driving the bracket 2 up and down, thereby achieving precise vertical positioning of the pipe. Simultaneously, the clamping member 5 begins to operate. The driving member 52 on the mounting plate 51 is activated, driving the fastening block 53 toward the unloading seat 4 until the pipe is firmly fixed in the groove.

[0033] The above operation can complete the positioning of one end of the pipeline. The same principle can be used to complete the positioning of the other end of the pipeline through another identical device.

[0034] Through automated conveying and fixing devices, the time for manual handling and positioning of pipelines is significantly reduced, the efficiency of welding operations is improved, the physical burden of operators is reduced, the possibility of human operational errors is reduced, and the risk of safety accidents is reduced.

[0035] Precise pipe positioning and firm clamping ensure the stability and centering of the pipe during welding, thereby improving welding quality.

[0036] The conveying platform can be adjusted and optimized according to spiral pipes of different specifications and lengths, and has strong versatility and flexibility.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the support frame 1 is in an N-shape, a base is provided at the bottom of the support frame 1, and a plurality of pulleys are provided oppositely below the base; two receiving grooves 6 are provided oppositely on the bracket 2.

[0038] Furthermore, in actual operation, in order to improve work efficiency, the present embodiment also includes two sets of slide rails arranged relatively to each other, and several pulleys are slidingly arranged on the corresponding slide rails to control the two relatively arranged devices to move closer or farther away, thereby simultaneously transporting the pipes at both ends to the workbench for centering and welding operations.

[0039] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the lifting member 3 includes two sprockets 31 that are arranged inside the accommodating groove 6 for relative rotation, a chain 32 is wound around the two sprockets 31 on the same side, a rotating shaft 34 is provided between the two opposite sprockets 31, and a plurality of transmission rods 33 are provided on one side of the chain 32, and the other end of the transmission rod 33 is connected to the bracket 2; the lifting member 3 also includes a reducer arranged on the support frame 1, and a driving motor is provided on the reducer, and the output shaft of the driving motor is connected to the input shaft of the reducer, and the output shaft of the reducer is connected to the bottom sprocket 31.

[0040] When the lifting member 3 begins operation, the drive motor starts, and its output shaft transmits power to the connected reducer input shaft. The reducer, through the deceleration action of its internal gears, converts high-speed, low-torque power into low-speed, high-torque power, which is then transmitted through its output shaft to the bottom sprocket 31. The bottom sprocket 31 rotates relative to another opposing sprocket 31 via a rotating shaft 34. As the bottom sprocket 31 rotates, the chain 32 begins to move, driving several transmission rods 33 mounted on it. The other ends of these transmission rods 33 are connected to the carriage 2. Therefore, as the chain 32 and transmission rods 33 rise or fall with the rotation of the sprocket 31, they correspondingly drive the vertical movement of the carriage 2, thereby achieving the lifting or lowering function. This entire process is accomplished through the power provided by the drive motor, the power conversion and deceleration performed by the reducer, and the transmission functions of the sprockets, chain, and transmission rods.

[0041] Specifically, the bracket 2 in this embodiment includes a U-shaped discharge platform 21, fixed plates 22 are provided on both sides of the discharge platform 21, the other end of the transmission rod 33 is connected to the fixed plate 22, and the discharge seat 4 is provided in the middle of the discharge platform 21.

[0042] The U-shaped structure of the unloading platform 21 provides a spacious and stable platform for placing and supporting the spiral pipe. The fixing plate 22 enhances the overall structural strength of the bracket 2 and also provides a reliable support point for the connection of the transmission rod 33.

[0043] The discharge seat 4 usually has a groove that matches the shape of the pipeline to ensure the stability and accuracy of the pipeline during transportation.

[0044] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, two fixed rods 221 are relatively arranged on the side of the fixed plate 22 away from the discharge platform 21, and rollers 222 are rotatably arranged at both ends of the fixed rods 221; two guide rails 7 are relatively arranged on both ends of the support frame 1, and the rollers 222 are slidably arranged above the corresponding guide rails 7.

[0045] The main function of the roller 222 is to reduce the friction resistance of the bracket 2 during movement, so that the bracket 2 can move horizontally on the support frame 1 more easily and smoothly. The guide rail 7 provides a precise sliding path for the roller 222, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the bracket 2 during movement.

[0046] At the same time, since the roller 222 and the guide rail 7 fit very tightly together, it can be ensured that the bracket 2 will not deviate or shake during the movement, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the spiral pipe during the transportation process.

[0047] Furthermore, in this embodiment, two baffles 8 are relatively arranged on the discharge table 21, and guide wheels 9 are rotatably provided on the opposite sides of the two baffles 8, and the guide wheels 9 are slidably matched with the corresponding guide rails 7.

[0048] As the carriage 2 moves the unloading platform 21 vertically, the guide wheels 9 on the two baffles 8 roll along the pre-set guide rails 7. This rolling contact significantly reduces frictional resistance compared to sliding contact, making the raising and lowering of the carriage 2 smoother and more stable. Furthermore, the design of the guide wheels 9 ensures the directional stability of the unloading platform 21 during movement, preventing it from deviating from the predetermined lifting path.

[0049] Preferably, in this embodiment, several of the mounting plates 51 are relatively arranged on the discharge platform 21, and several of the mounting plates 51 are located on both sides of the discharge seat 4, and the top ends of the mounting plates 51 are inclined toward the side close to the discharge seat 4.

[0050] The top of the mounting plate 51 is designed to be inclined toward the side close to the discharge seat 4. By the inclined design of the mounting plate 51, the moving trajectory of the driving member 52 can be guided, and the moving space of the pipeline will not be disturbed while the pipeline is tightened.

[0051] In one embodiment, the driving member 52 is an electric push rod.

[0052] Electric linear actuators are highly efficient and reliable drive devices. Driven by electricity, they achieve fast and smooth telescopic motion. This kinematic characteristic makes them ideal for driving the unloading base 4 or other components requiring precise position adjustment.
