Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of tooling for valve sleeve welding, in particular to a tooling for sleeve welding positioning and correction. Background Art
[0002] When welding sleeves to valves at the welding end, especially small-diameter valves, after welding the sleeves, if there is no tooling to fix them, the shrinkage of the welding will cause the sleeves at both ends of the valve to be misaligned and eccentric (in a V shape). In this way, when the valve with the sleeves welded arrives at the installation site, the sleeves cannot be aligned with the pipes at both ends of the site, which will affect the on-site welding construction. In serious cases, rework is required, and the rework can only be solved by cutting off the sleeves, reprocessing the welding grooves, and then re-welding the sleeves. This will delay a lot of rework time and increase a lot of rework costs. In order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to propose a tooling that can fix the sleeves during welding and correct the sleeves after problems occur. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a sleeve welding positioning and correction tool to solve the problem that the existing sleeve is easily deformed after welding and cannot be corrected after deformation and needs rework.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] A sleeve welding positioning and correction tool, comprising a base plate, a V-shaped positioning block and a pressure plate, the base plate comprising a left positioning and correction part, a valve body connecting part and a right positioning and correction part arranged in sequence from left to right, the two V-shaped positioning blocks are respectively fixed on the top surface of the left positioning and correction part and the top surface of the right positioning and correction part, the top of the V-shaped positioning block is connected to the pressure plate through a pressure plate stud and a pressure plate nut, the downward pressing operation area of the pressure plate is opposite to the V-shaped notch of the V-shaped positioning block, a positioning tube is fixed at the V-shaped notch through the pressure plate, the inner diameter of the positioning tube is adapted to the outer diameter of the sleeve to be welded, a base plate connecting through hole for connecting the valve body is opened in the middle of the valve body connecting part, the valve body and the base plate are connected by valve body connecting studs and valve body connecting nuts arranged at the base plate connecting through hole.
[0006] When in use, first fix the flange in the valve body upside down on the valve body connection part on the top surface of the base plate, and use the valve body connection studs and valve body connection nuts to position the valve body on the base plate. Then, after the sleeve is passed through the positioning tube, the groove of the sleeve is aligned with the groove of the valve body. Subsequently, the pressure plate studs and pressure plate nuts are used to control the pressure plate to press the positioning tube tightly and fix it in the V-shaped notch of the V-shaped positioning block. Then the valve body and the sleeve can be welded. If the sleeve of the valve welded is deformed, it can be corrected by this tooling. During correction, the welded valve is assembled onto the tooling, and the pressure plate studs and pressure plate nuts are used to make the pressure plate press the sleeve to correct the deformed sleeves at both ends of the valve.
[0007] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top surface of the valve body connecting portion is detachably connected to a pad via a detachable connecting structure, and a pad connecting through hole is provided at a position of the pad facing the bottom plate connecting through hole.
[0008] The positioning of valve bodies of different heights can be achieved by adding a backing plate between the valve body and the positioning plate, thereby making the adaptability of the tooling better.
[0009] As a further preference of the present invention, the detachable connection structure is a bolt connection structure.
[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, there are two groups of pressure plate studs and pressure plate nuts for connecting the pressure plate at the top of the V-shaped positioning block, and the two groups of pressure plate studs and pressure plate nuts are respectively arranged on both sides of the V-shaped notch.
[0011] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a slot is provided on the top of the positioning tube, and a block adapted to the slot is provided on the bottom of the pressure plate facing the slot.
[0012] The designed clamping block and clamping slot can clamp and limit the positioning tube, so that the positioning tube will not rotate or slide, and the stability is better, which makes it easier for the sleeve to be inserted into the positioning tube.
[0013] As a further preference of the present invention, the outer end of the positioning tube is further threadedly connected to a limiting sleeve, and the inner diameter of the limiting sleeve is adapted to the outer diameter of the sleeve to be welded.
[0014] When welding the sleeve, the sleeve may slide outward under the action of external force, which will affect the welding quality. In order to avoid this problem, a limit sleeve is provided at the outer end of the positioning tube. After the sleeve is installed, the limit sleeve can be installed to limit the sleeve, so that the sleeve will not slide outward during the welding process, thereby ensuring the welding quality. The limit sleeve can be removed for correction or when it is no longer needed because it is threadedly connected to the outer end of the positioning tube.
[0015] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a transparent observation window is further provided on the side of the limiting sleeve.
[0016] It is convenient to visually see whether the outer end of the sleeve is against the limiting end of the inner cavity of the limiting sleeve.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. When in use, first fix the flange in the valve body upside down on the valve body connection part on the top surface of the base plate, and use the valve body connection studs and valve body connection nuts to position the valve body on the base plate. Then, after the sleeve is passed through the positioning tube, the groove of the sleeve is aligned with the groove of the valve body. Subsequently, the pressure plate studs and pressure plate nuts are used to control the pressure plate to press the positioning tube tightly and fix it in the V-shaped notch of the V-shaped positioning block. Then, the valve body and the sleeve can be welded. If the sleeve of the valve welded is deformed, it can be corrected by this tooling. During correction, the welded valve is assembled to the tooling. Through the action of the pressure plate studs and pressure plate nuts, the pressure plate can be pressed against the sleeve to correct the deformed sleeves at both ends of the valve.
[0019] 2. By using this device to weld the sleeve of the valve, welding deformation can be effectively controlled to prevent deformation of the sleeves at both ends of the valve after welding.
[0020] 3. The bottom plate connecting through holes can be multiple through holes of different sizes, so that different valve bodies can be positioned.
[0021] 4. By adding a pad between the valve body and the positioning plate, the positioning of valve bodies of different heights can be achieved, making the adaptability of the tooling better.
[0022] 5. The designed clamping block and slot can clamp and limit the positioning tube, so the positioning tube will not rotate or slide, which has better stability and makes it easier to insert the sleeve into the positioning tube.
[0023] 6. When welding the sleeve, the sleeve may slide outward under the action of external force, which will affect the welding quality. In order to avoid this problem, a limit sleeve is set at the outer end of the positioning tube. After the sleeve is installed, the limit sleeve can be installed to limit the sleeve, so that the sleeve will not slide outward during the welding process, thereby ensuring the welding quality. The limit sleeve can be removed when correcting or when it is not needed, because it is threadedly connected to the outer end of the positioning tube.
[0024] 7. It is easy to visually see whether the outer end of the sleeve is against the limiting end of the inner cavity of the limiting sleeve. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
