Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a device for installing a flange, in particular to a device for installing a heavy-duty inclined flange. Background Art
[0002] At present, for some light flanges, manual installation is generally adopted. For some heavy flanges that are easy to be lifted by crane, they are lifted by crane and installed with manual assistance. However, for those heavy flanges that are hidden under the equipment and not easy to be lifted by crane, there is no suitable special installation equipment available on the market. Therefore, for flanges with large mass, limited lifting space, frequent disassembly, and cannot be lifted by conventional cranes, Figure 1 A special transplanter is needed to move the flange that is inconvenient to install from the waiting position to the installation position. The equipment has a positioning function, and workers only need to install the bolts, which is convenient, fast and reliable. Summary of the Invention
[0003] When installing flanges at the oblique lower part of a large cylinder, the flanges are heavy and cannot be lifted by cranes. They cannot be moved manually and are difficult to install. The flanges also need to be disassembled frequently, posing a very high safety risk. There is also a special sealing ring between the flange and the cylinder, which can only be installed along the axis. In this special use environment, the utility model proposes a transplanter for installing heavy-duty inclined flanges. The transplanter needs to have both horizontal and tilting functions. The horizontal movement can move the flange from the waiting position to the bottom of the cylinder. When the flange is at the waiting position, there are no obstacles under the cylinder, and workers can drill into the cylinder through the flange hole to carry out their work, ensuring that the workers' passage is unobstructed. The tilting movement can move the flange from the oblique lower part along the flange axis to directly below the flange, ensuring the normal installation of the flange and the sealing ring. Both horizontal and tilting movements are guided by linear guides and driven by servo motors and ball screws. This method has accurate positioning, simple structure, high reliability and convenient operation.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is: a transplanter for installing heavy-duty inclined flanges, comprising a base, a horizontal sliding assembly, an inclined sliding assembly, an inclined driving mechanism and a horizontal driving mechanism. The horizontal sliding assembly is installed on the weighing beams on both sides of the base and is connected to the horizontal driving mechanism. The horizontal driving mechanism drives the horizontal sliding assembly to move left and right on the linear guide rail; the inclined sliding assembly is installed on the horizontal sliding assembly and is connected to the inclined driving mechanism. The inclined driving mechanism drives the inclined sliding assembly to move obliquely on the linear guide rail; the driving inclined sliding assembly is provided with an inclined surface for installing the heavy flange and a positioning and fixing structure.
[0005] Furthermore, the base is composed of a horizontal motion limit block, a linear guide rail, a civil engineering support base and a base frame, the horizontal motion limit block is installed on the base frame, the linear guide rail is installed on the base frame, and the civil engineering support base is installed below the base.
[0006] Furthermore, the horizontal sliding assembly consists of a tilting motion limit block, a horizontal sliding bracket and a linear guide rail. The tilting motion limit block is installed on the horizontal sliding bracket, and the horizontal sliding bracket is installed on the horizontal linear guide rail shoe. It can move horizontally on the horizontal linear guide rail and provide support and guidance for the tilting motion. The tilting motion linear guide rail is installed on the inclined surface of the horizontal sliding bracket.
[0007] Furthermore, the inclined sliding assembly consists of a self-aligning bolt, an inclined sliding bracket, an adjustment pad and a support block. The self-aligning bolt is installed on the inclined sliding bracket. The self-aligning bolt is used to adjust the position of the flange center. The inclined sliding bracket is installed on the inclined linear guide rail and can move on the inclined linear guide rail. The support block is installed on the sliding bracket, and the adjustment pad is installed on the support block.
[0008] Furthermore, when the annular flange needs to be installed, the support block and the adjustment pad are installed on the inclined sliding bracket, and when the flat flange needs to be installed, the support block and the adjustment pad are removed.
[0009] Furthermore, the tilt drive mechanism is composed of a servo motor, a planetary reducer, a reducer mounting seat, a diaphragm coupling, a fixed support seat, a ball screw, a screw nut mounting seat and a screw nut. The servo motor is connected to the planetary reducer, and the planetary reducer is installed on the reducer mounting seat. The diaphragm coupling connects the reducer output shaft and the roller screw output shaft together and transmits torque. The two ends of the roller screw are connected to the fixed support seat. The fixed support seat constrains the roller screw to prevent the roller screw from generating axial movement. The screw nut can move axially along the roller screw to drive the tilt sliding assembly to move.
[0010] Furthermore, the horizontal drive mechanism consists of a servo motor, a planetary reducer, a reducer mounting seat, a plum blossom coupling, a mounting support, a ball screw, a screw nut and a screw nut mounting seat. The servo motor is connected to the ball screw through the planetary reducer and the plum blossom coupling. The planetary reducer is installed on the reducer mounting seat. Both ends of the roller screw are connected to the mounting support to fix, support and constrain the ball screw to avoid axial movement during installation. The screw nut can move axially along the ball screw to drive the horizontal sliding assembly to move.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0012] This new transplanter for installing heavy-duty tilting flanges allows for quick installation and removal of flanges, automating the entire installation and removal process. This method is highly efficient, stable, and reliable, and is also compatible with flanges of varying diameters. The flange support surface features two adjustable support screws, which can be adjusted to accommodate flanges of varying diameters. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The horizontal sliding bracket 302 is mounted on the sliding shoe of the horizontal linear guide 303, allowing horizontal motion on the horizontal linear guide 303 while providing support and guidance for the tilt motion. The tilt motion linear guide is mounted on the inclined surface of the horizontal sliding bracket 302.
[0024] like Figure 5 As shown, the tilt slide assembly 103 mainly consists of a centering bolt 401, a tilt slide bracket 402, an adjustment pad 403, and a support block 404.

The diaphragm coupling 504 connects the reducer output shaft and the output shaft of the roller screw 506 to transmit torque. The two ends of the roller screw 506 are connected to the fixed support base 505, which constrains the roller screw 506 to prevent axial movement. The screw nut 508 moves axially along the roller screw 506, driving the tilt slide assembly 103 to move.
