[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a weld seam smoothing device for straight seam welded pipes, comprising two movable supports 1 and a cylindrical welded pipe 23. The two movable supports 1 support the entire device to ensure its stability. Two fixed carrier plates 3 provide installation foundations for components such as electric winches 4 and I-beam vertical beams 6, ensuring that the components are securely installed. The two electric winches 4 can adjust the height of the cylindrical welded pipe 23 and related components by controlling the raising and lowering of hooks 5 through the raising and lowering of steel cables. The bottom ends of the two electric winches 4 are fixedly connected to hooks 5 for connecting to the fixing mechanism 2, facilitating... The position of the cylindrical welded pipe 23 is raised and adjusted. I-beam vertical beams 6 are fixedly connected to the top of both fixed carrier plates 3, providing stable support for the cylindrical crossbeam 7. Cylindrical crossbeams 7 are fixedly connected between adjacent I-beam vertical beams 6, serving as sliding tracks for the cylindrical sleeve 8. The cylindrical sleeve 8 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the cylindrical crossbeam 7, allowing the cylindrical sleeve 8 to move on the cylindrical crossbeam 7. The position of the arc-shaped razor 11 is adjusted. Multiple ball bearings 9 are equidistantly rotatably connected inside the cylindrical sleeve 8, reducing friction between the cylindrical sleeve 8 and the cylindrical crossbeam 7, making the sliding smoother. A movable rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sleeve 8, used to connect and move the arc-shaped razor 11. The arc-shaped razor 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable rod 10 to smooth the weld seam of the cylindrical welded pipe 23. Multiple handles 12 are fixedly connected to the outside of the movable rod 10, allowing operators to manually adjust the position of the movable rod 10 and the arc-shaped razor 11. Fixing mechanisms 2 are provided at the left and right ends inside the cylindrical welded pipe 23 to fix the cylindrical welded pipe 23 and prevent it from moving during the weld seam smoothing process. Two support rods 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the front side of the left-end movable bracket 1. Mounting plate 14 is fixedly connected to the top of both support rods 13, providing an installation platform for control console 15. Control console 15 is fixedly connected to the top of mounting plate 14 to centrally control the operation of components such as electric winch 4. Multiple control buttons 16 are fixedly installed on the top of control console 15 to facilitate operation and control of the device by operators. A tension gauge 17 is fixedly connected to the front of mounting plate 14 to display the tension of electric winch 4 in real time to ensure operational safety. The tension gauge 17 is electrically connected to the two electric winches 4 to monitor the tension of electric winches 4.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 Two fixing plugs 201 are respectively installed at the left and right ends of the cylindrical welded pipe 23 to fix the cylindrical welded pipe 23 and ensure its stability during the weld smoothing process. Each fixing plug 201 has a hydraulic oil chamber 202 inside, which can push the extrusion column 204 through hydraulic action to fix the cylindrical welded pipe 23. Multiple mounting holes 203 are provided around the outer perimeter of each fixing plug 201 to provide mounting positions for the extrusion column 204. The extrusion column 204 is slidably connected to the inner wall of each mounting hole 203 and moves under the action of the hydraulic oil chamber 202 to fix the cylindrical welded pipe 23. Pressure is applied to the inner wall of the tube 23. Rubber heads 205 are fixedly connected to the far ends of multiple extrusion columns 204 to increase the friction with the inner wall of the cylindrical welded tube 23 and improve the fixing effect. L-shaped rotating rods 206 are rotatably connected to the far ends of the two fixing plugs 201 to facilitate the connection of lifting rings 207. Lifting rings 207 are fixedly connected to the top of the two L-shaped rotating rods 206 to engage with hooks 5 to achieve the lifting and fixing of the cylindrical welded tube 23. The two lifting rings 207 engage with the two hooks 5 respectively to facilitate the operation and control of the cylindrical welded tube 23 by the electric winch 4.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top front end of each of the two fixed carrier plates 3 is fixedly connected to a horizontal frame 18 for mounting a level 19 to ensure the device is level and to guarantee the accuracy of the weld flatness. Multiple levels 19 are fixedly connected inside each of the two horizontal frames 18 to monitor the levelness of the device in real time and facilitate adjustment of the device to a level position. Counterweight balls 20 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the two fixed carrier plates 3 on opposite sides to increase the stability of the device and prevent it from tilting during operation. Both counterweight balls 20 are spherical in shape, which facilitates installation and position adjustment, making the center of gravity of the device more stable. Universal wheels 21 are rotatably connected to the four corners of the bottom of the two movable supports 1 to facilitate the movement and handling of the device and improve its flexibility. Brake plates 22 are fixedly installed inside the multiple universal wheels 21 at the rear end to fix the device during operation, prevent the device from moving, and ensure the stability of the operation.
[0035] Working principle: Two movable supports 1 support the entire device. The fixed carrier plate 3, which is fixedly connected to the top of the supports, provides the installation foundation for subsequent components. The electric winch 4 on the fixed carrier plate 3 can control the lifting and lowering of the hook 5 below through its own rotation. The I-beam vertical beam 6 is fixed to the top of the fixed carrier plate 3. The cylindrical crossbeam 7 between the two I-beam vertical beams 6 provides a sliding track for the cylindrical sleeve 8. Multiple ball bearings 9 are equidistantly rotatably connected inside the cylindrical sleeve 8, allowing the cylindrical sleeve 8 to slide smoothly on the outer wall of the cylindrical crossbeam 7, reducing frictional resistance. The movable rod 10 at the bottom of the cylindrical sleeve 8 is connected to the arc-shaped razor 11. When it is necessary to flatten the weld seam of the cylindrical welded pipe 23, the cylindrical sleeve 8 is adjusted on the cylindrical crossbeam 7. The position allows the arc-shaped razor 11 to move above the weld and its bottom to fit against the top of the cylindrical welded pipe 23. Multiple handles 12 on the outside of the moving rod 10 facilitate manual adjustment of the position of the moving rod 10 and the arc-shaped razor 11 by the operator. In actual operation, the cylindrical welded pipe 23 is placed in a suitable position, and then the height of the hook 5 is adjusted by operating the electric winch 4 to ensure that the whole device is at a suitable working height. The position of the moving rod 10 and the arc-shaped razor 11 is adjusted by using the handles 12 to accurately align them with the weld. As the cylindrical sleeve 8 slides on the cylindrical beam 7, it can drive the arc-shaped razor 11 to move on the surface of the cylindrical welded pipe 23 to smooth the weld. The function of the ball bearing 9 is to ensure smooth sliding of the cylindrical sleeve 8.
[0036] Furthermore, two fixing plugs 201 are respectively set at the left and right ends inside the cylindrical welded pipe 23. The hydraulic oil tank 202 inside the fixing plug 201 plays a key role. When it is necessary to fix the cylindrical welded pipe 23, the pressure inside the hydraulic oil tank 202 changes, pushing the extrusion column 204 in the multiple mounting holes 203 opened around the outside of the fixing plug 201 to slide outward. The rubber head 205 at the far end of the extrusion column 204 is in close contact with the inner wall of the cylindrical welded pipe 23, generating friction, thereby fixing the cylindrical welded pipe 23. The lifting ring 207 at the top of the L-shaped rotating rod 206 rotatably connected to the far end of the fixing plug 201 is engaged with the hook 5 at the bottom of the electric winch 4 on the top fixed carrier plate 3 of the two movable supports 1. By raising and lowering the electric winch 4, the height position of the fixing mechanism 2 and the cylindrical welded pipe 23 can be adjusted.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
