For example, they may refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0034] Refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the pipeline online drilling device of this embodiment includes a drill rod main shaft 1, a screw-in box 2, a manual drilling assembly 3, a guide short pipe 4, an interface short pipe 5, an interface ball valve 6 and a pipe joint 7.

[0035] The front end of the drill rod main shaft 1 is used to fix the hole drill 8. Figure 4As shown, the drill rod spindle 1 comprises a drill rod spline shaft 11 and a screwing jack 12. The front end of the screwing jack 12 is fixedly connected with the rear end of the drill rod spline shaft 11, and the front end of the drill rod spline shaft 11 is fixedly connected with the hole drill 8.

[0036] In this embodiment, the screwing jack 12 is connected with the drill rod spline shaft 11 in the following way: as shown in Figure 4 As shown, the rear end of the drill rod spline shaft 11 is provided with a flared counterbore structure 111, and a counterbore end cover 112 is arranged. The counterbore end cover 112 is sleeved on the screwing jack 12. The front end of the screwing jack 12 is provided with a tapered step structure 121. The outer periphery of the thin diameter section of the step structure 121 is fixedly connected with a thrust bearing retainer 123 through a pin shaft 122.

One end of the pipe joint 7 is used for being welded in advance around the hole of the pipeline to be drilled, and the other end is used for being sealingly connected with the front end of the interface ball valve 6. In this way, the drill rod spindle 1 extends into the inlet end of the screwing box 2 until the hole drill 8 at the front end of the drill rod spindle 1 contacts the outer wall of the pipeline to be drilled. The drill rod spindle 1 can rotate relative to the screwing box 2, the manual drilling assembly 3, the guide short pipe 4, the interface short pipe 5 and the interface ball valve 6, and can move up and down, thereby facilitating the drilling operation.

[0039] Specifically, the inlet end of the screwing box 2 is provided with a locking disc 21 fixedly connected with the port thereof. The center of the locking disc 21 is provided with an internal thread hole 211. The screwing jack 12 is provided with an external thread 127 threadedly matched with the internal thread hole 211.

[0040] Referring again to the drawings Figure 3 , 5As shown in Figs. 6, the manual drilling assembly 3 in this embodiment includes a housing 31 and a hand lever 32, and the inside of the housing 31 is provided with a worm gear assembly. The worm 33 of the worm gear assembly is connected with the hand lever 32 and is driven to rotate by the hand lever 32. The worm gear 34 of the worm gear assembly is internally provided with a toothed hole 341, and the drill rod spline shaft 11 is provided with a spline 113 matched with the toothed hole 341. Then the hand lever 32 drives the worm 33 to rotate, the worm 33 drives the drill rod spline shaft 11 to rotate through the meshing with the worm gear 34, and the drill rod spline shaft 11 further moves up and down through the fixed connection with the screwing jacking rod 12 and the screwing of the screwing jacking rod 12 with the locking disc 21, thereby driving the hole drill 8 to realize the on-line drilling of the pipeline to be drilled.

[0041] More specifically, the screwing box 2 adopts a tubular structure with flange plates at both ends, the flared counterbore structure 111 at the rear end of the drill rod spline shaft 11 moves up and down along the tubular structure and can ensure the stability of the axis of the drill rod spline shaft 11. The rear end flange plate of the tubular structure is connected with the locking disc 21 through bolts, and the front end flange plate is connected with the housing 31 of the manual drilling assembly 3 through bolts.

[0042] The rear end of the guide short pipe 4 is provided with a rear flange plate 41 fixedly connected with the housing 31 of the manual drilling assembly 3, the outer side of the front end of the guide short pipe 4 is provided with an outer thread section 42 screwedly connected with the rear end of the interface short pipe 5, and the inner side of the front end of the guide short pipe 4 is provided with a guide hole 43 for the drill rod spline shaft 11 to slide up and down.

[0043] The interface short pipe 5 can adopt a 1.5-inch interface short pipe, or a 2-inch or other size interface short pipe, which is used for corresponding different sizes of interface ball valves 6. The interface ball valve 6 is selected according to the pressure of the pipeline to be drilled, so as to adapt to different pressure pipelines to be drilled.

[0044] In order to ensure the stability of the rotation of the drill rod main shaft 1, the central axis of the tubular structure of the screwing box 2, the central axis of the worm gear 34 of the worm gear assembly, the central axis of the guide hole 43 of the guide short pipe 4, the central axis of the interface short pipe 5, and the central axis of the pipe joint 7 all coincide with the central axis of the drill rod main shaft 1, which can ensure that the axis of the drill rod main shaft 1 remains unchanged or only has a slight change, thereby improving the stability of the drilling device. The pipeline drilling device has the advantages of simple structure, manual operation, small size, light weight, easy to carry, time saving, labor saving, or high working efficiency compared with the existing drilling devices.

[0045] In this embodiment, the front end of the drill rod spline shaft 11 is configured as a socket structure for inserting the drill bit stud 81 at the rear end of the hole drill 8, such as a triangular prism structure socket 115, which facilitates the detachable connection of the hole drill 8 and the replacement of the drill bit, which is beneficial to improving the cutting speed and efficiency; it can also ensure that the drill bit stud is concentric with the drill rod main shaft 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the hole opening operation.

[0046] In this embodiment, the drill 8 is a MCTR super-hard alloy drill. Its open end is equipped with cutting teeth with serrated edges, which improve cutting speed and efficiency. The MCTR super-hard alloy drill 8 has a hollow interior, which holds the cut pipe wall within the hollow space. This prevents the cut pipe wall from falling out under the influence of gravity during the operation, ensuring efficient and safe cutting.

[0047] The specific use method of the portable online pipeline opening device of the utility model is as follows:

[0048] First, weld one end of the pipe joint 7 in advance around the opening of the pipe to be drilled; connect the screw-in box 2, manual drilling assembly 3, guide short tube 4, interface short tube 5 and interface ball valve 6 in sequence, and then insert the screw-in push rod 12 and the drill pipe spline shaft 11 into the hollow through hole formed by the screw-in box 2, manual drilling assembly 3, guide short tube 4, interface short tube 5 and interface ball valve 6, and insert the shaft head stud 81 of the appropriate hole drill 8 into the front end receiving hole 115 of the drilling spindle 1, and then seal the interface ball valve 6 and the pipe joint 7 to complete the drilling preparation;

[0049] Then, the locking disk 21 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the screw-in box 2, and by rotating the push rod wrench 126, the drill rod spindle 1 moves forward so that the open end of the hole drill 8 contacts the position to be drilled;

[0050] Next, the hand crank 32 is rotated to make the drill rod main shaft 1 drive the drill 8 to rotate and move forward, thereby completing the drilling operation of the pipeline.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Those skilled in the art can make some simple modifications, equivalent changes or modifications based on the technical content disclosed above, which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
