[0021] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the working principle of the structure of an automatic welding device for rigid direct buried pipes: the walking wheels 6 of the automatic welding device can move freely in the pipe pit under different working conditions, and the operation is flexible and convenient. The rigid direct buried pipes 12 that need to be welded on both sides are lifted by the lifting boom 9, the lifting arm 10 and the hook 11, and the rigid direct buried pipes 12 that need to be welded on both sides are rotated and fixed by using the telescopic mechanical arm 5, the pipe clamp 3, the rotating bearing 4 and the adjustable bite 8. The butt welds of the rigid direct buried pipes 12 are welded by the automatic welder 7, and the control integration completes the automated control with high welding efficiency. During the welding process, the lifting boom 9, the lifting arm 10 and the hook 11 clamp the welding distal end of the rigid direct buried pipe 12, and the rigid direct buried pipes 12 on both sides are guaranteed to be horizontal, thereby improving the welding quality, reducing the workload of the construction personnel, and improving the welding level. It is not affected by the terrain and construction environment, has strong practicality, a wide range of applications and high economic value.

[0023] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, an automatic welding device for rigid direct-buried pipes includes an automatic welding trolley 1, a control integration 2, a pipe clamp 3, a rotating bearing 4, a telescopic mechanical arm 5, a walking wheel 6, an automatic welder 7, an adjustable bite 8, a lifting boom 9, a lifting jib 10 and a hook 11. The control integration 2 controls the automatic welding trolley 1. The bottom of the automatic welding trolley 1 is provided with a walking wheel 6, and the movement of the device is realized by the walking wheel. An automatic welder 7 is provided on the top. After the rigid direct-buried pipe 12 is fixed, the welding rod is filled for welding. A telescopic mechanical arm 5 is symmetrically provided on the outer surface of both sides. The telescopic mechanical arm 5 is a device for docking and fixing two rigid direct-buried pipes 12 with different diameters and different distances. The end face of the telescopic mechanical arm 5 is provided with an adjustable bite 8. Pipe clamps 3 are provided on both sides of the length of the adjustable bite 8. The pipe clamp 3 is used to fix rigid direct-buried pipes 12 of different diameters. It is a clamp that effectively fixes the rigid direct-buried pipe 12. A lifting unit is provided at the tail end of the automatic welding trolley 1.

[0024] Furthermore, the control integration 2 controls the front and rear movement, left and right movement, and lifting and hoisting control assembly of the automatic welding device.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, further, the lifting unit is divided into two parts, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the tail end of the automatic welding trolley 1. The lifting units on both sides correspond to the telescopic mechanical arms 5 on both sides. The lifting units and the telescopic mechanical arms 5 and the pipe clamps 3 cooperate to install and fix the rigid direct-buried pipes 12 that need to be welded on both sides. During welding, the lifting units on both sides respectively clamp the distal ends of the rigid direct-buried pipes 12, and cooperate with the telescopic mechanical arms 5 and the pipe clamps 3 on both sides to keep the rigid direct-buried pipes 12 level during the welding process, thereby improving the welding quality.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, further, the lifting unit includes a lifting boom 9, a lifting jib 10 and a hook 11, the lifting boom 9 is arranged at the tail end of the automatic welding trolley 1, the lifting jib 10 is arranged on the top of the lifting boom 9, and the hook 11 is arranged at the end of the lifting jib 10. The lifting unit composed of the lifting boom 9, the lifting jib 10 and the hook 11 is arranged on the automatic welding device, and cooperates with the automatic welding device to perform welding work. There is no need to consider the lifting construction conditions. The lifting work is flexible to operate, and the lifting and welding work are completed together, which saves the laying progress of the rigid direct buried pipe 12 and improves the construction efficiency.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, further, the automatic welder 7 is arranged in the middle of the telescopic robotic arms 5 on both sides. The automatic welder 7 is responsible for the butt welding of the two rigid direct-buried pipes 12. The telescopic robotic arms 5 on both sides fix the rigid direct-buried pipes 12, and the automatic welder 7 welds the weld in the middle to achieve automatic welding.

[0028] Furthermore, at least two pipe clamps 3 are provided on one side of the adjustable bite 8, and the distance between the two pipe clamps 3 on the adjustable bite 8 can be freely adjusted to ensure that the welded rigid direct buried pipe 12 is balanced and stable at the proximal end of the welding, thereby improving the welding quality.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, further, a rotary bearing 4 is provided on the inner side of the pipe clamp 3. The rotary bearing 4 is a key component for connecting the pipe clamp 3 to the telescopic robotic arm 5 to rotate the rigid direct buried pipe 12. When the rigid direct buried pipe 12 rotates to weld other weld positions, the rotary bearing 4 reduces friction and improves the surface quality of the rigid direct buried pipe.

[0030] Furthermore, the travel wheel 6 is a universal wheel with a brake. The universal wheel with a brake can ignore the terrain requirements, allowing the automatic welding device to move freely on the construction site.

[0031] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, and they should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
