Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of pipe processing, in particular to an auxiliary tool for laying a thermal insulation layer of an overhead steam pipe. Background Art
[0002] Overhead steam pipes are piping systems used to transport high-temperature steam. These systems require special insulation to minimize heat loss and protect the external environment from the effects of the high-temperature steam. Currently, various types of insulation are available. Among them, hard insulation not only provides effective insulation but also enhances the overall structural strength of the pipe. Hard insulation is typically constructed from multiple stacked blocks of materials such as calcium silicate, with standardized caulking between the blocks to prevent heat loss through the gaps.
[0003] In the existing technology, calcium silicate tiles are fixed to the outer wall of the working steel pipe with hoops. However, it is difficult to fix multiple calcium silicate tiles at the same time, usually requiring the cooperation of multiple people, which is inefficient and the fixing effect is not good. Therefore, a tooling to assist in the laying and fixing of calcium silicate tiles is developed to optimize the above operation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an auxiliary tool for laying an insulation layer of an overhead steam pipe to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] Technical solution: An auxiliary tooling for laying an insulation layer on an overhead steam pipe, comprising a movable base, a column, a cylinder and a tensioning belt. The columns are mounted on the movable base, and there are two columns. The cylinder is mounted on the columns, and the two ends of the tensioning belt are respectively connected to the cylinder output ends on the two columns.
[0006] Furthermore, the movable base is arranged below the working steel pipe erected outside, and a laser lamp is installed on the movable base, and the light beam of the laser lamp cooperates with the landmark line.
[0007] Furthermore, the two columns are respectively arranged on both sides of the working steel pipe, a carrier plate is provided on the column, the installation height of the carrier plate on the column is adjustable, and the cylinder is installed on the carrier plate.
[0008] Furthermore, an air source installation station is provided on the mobile base, and the air source lines of the two cylinders pass through the inside of the column and are connected to an external air source set at the air source installation station. An industrial control switch is electrically connected between the cylinder and the external air source, and the industrial control switch is installed on the column.
[0009] Furthermore, the output end of the cylinder is movably connected to the tensioning belt through an articulated seat. The tensioning belt includes an articulated end block, a flexible belt and a fixing strip. Both ends of the flexible belt are equipped with articulated end blocks, the articulated end blocks are connected to the articulated seat, and the fixing strip is arranged on the flexible belt for restraining the hoop arranged on the flexible belt.
[0010] Furthermore, the width of the flexible belt is greater than half the width of the calcium silicate tile, and a storage groove for storing the hoop is provided on the flexible belt.
[0011] Beneficial Effects: The insulation layer installation process is simple. The cylinder drives the tensioning belt up and down, making it easy to fix the calcium silicate tile to the working steel pipe, simplifying the insulation layer installation process. The tensioning belt design allows workers to pre-fix the calcium silicate tile on the lower side by simply operating the cylinder, reducing the complexity of the installation work.
[0012] In summary, the present invention not only solves the difficulty in securing calcium silicate tiles in the prior art, but also significantly improves the efficiency of laying the insulation layer for overhead steam pipes and the effectiveness of securing the insulation layer.

[0017] In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features known in the art are not described to avoid confusion with the present invention.
[0018] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, an auxiliary tooling for laying an insulation layer of an overhead steam pipe includes a mobile base 1, a column 2, a cylinder 3 and a tensioning belt 4. The column 2 is installed on the mobile base 1, and there are two columns 2. The cylinder 3 is installed on the column 2, and the two ends of the tensioning belt 4 are respectively connected to the output ends of the cylinder 3 on the two columns 2.
[0019] This utility model utilizes a tensioning belt 4 to support a portion of the calcium silicate tiles 6. Under the output of the cylinder 3, the calcium silicate tiles 6 on the tensioning belt 4 can be pre-fixed below the working steel pipe 7. The remaining calcium silicate tiles 6 can then be manually placed to complete the laying of the circumferential insulation layer. This solves the problem of difficult fixation of calcium silicate tiles 6 in the prior art, greatly improving the efficiency of laying the insulation layer for overhead steam pipes and the effectiveness of the insulation layer fixation.
[0020] The mobile base 1 is positioned beneath the externally installed work pipe 7. A laser light is mounted on the base 1, and its beam aligns with the landmark line. As the insulation layer is laid, the base 1 needs to be constantly moved to new workstations. The laser light and the landmark line coordinate to ensure accurate positioning of the tooling, facilitating efficient workstation changes.
[0021] Two columns 2 are positioned on either side of the working steel pipe 7. A carrier plate is mounted on each column 2, and the plate's height is adjustable. The cylinder 3 is mounted on the carrier plate. The working steel pipe 7 is hoisted onto the support frame using external lifting tools. The mobile base 1 is positioned to ensure that the two columns 2 are located on either side of the support frame, allowing the tensioning belt 4 to pass around the working steel pipe 7. The adjustable carrier plate allows for flexible adjustment to accommodate working steel pipes of varying diameters, increasing the versatility of the tooling.
[0022] The mobile base 1 is equipped with an air source installation station. The air supply lines for the two air cylinders 3 pass through the interior of the column 2 and are connected to an external air source located at the air source installation station. An industrial control switch, mounted on the column 2, electrically connects the air cylinders 3 to the external air source. The air supply lines for the two cylinders 3 must be synchronized to ensure stable ascent of the calcium silicate tile 6 on the tensioning belt 4. Internally routing the air supply lines enhances the aesthetics of the tooling and reduces external interference, highlighting the tooling's streamlined design. The single-switch control makes the tooling easy to operate, making it easy for even untrained operators to quickly master its operation.
[0023] The output end of the cylinder 3 is movably connected to the tensioning belt 4 via an articulated seat. The tensioning belt 4 comprises an articulated end block 41, a flexible belt 42, and a fixing strip 44. Both ends of the flexible belt 42 are fitted with articulated end blocks 41, which are connected to the articulated seat. The fixing strip 44 is provided on the flexible belt 42 and is used to restrain the hoop 5 provided on the flexible belt 42. When the cylinder 3 is in the contracted state, the hoop 5 is first laid on the tensioning belt 4, and the ends of the hoop 5 are secured with fixing strips 44. The calcium silicate tiles 6 are then laid on the tensioning belt 4. When the cylinder 3 is output, the calcium silicate tiles 6 will wrap around the working steel pipe 7. After manually laying the calcium silicate tiles 6 around the entire circumference, they can be directly tied and secured with the hoop 5.
[0024] The width of the flexible band 42 is greater than half the width of the calcium silicate tile 6, and a storage slot 43 is provided on the flexible band 42 for storing the band 5. The width of the flexible band 42 is limited to improve the installation stability of the calcium silicate tile 6, and the storage slot 43 is to prevent the band 5 from affecting the stable placement of the calcium silicate tile 6.
[0025] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present invention, various equivalent transformations can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and these equivalent transformations all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
