Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline support technology, and in particular to a prefabricated pipeline support device. Background Technology

[0002] The drainage method of laying pipes within the lowered floor slab in the bathroom is an innovative design in modern building drainage systems. It aims to optimize the internal spatial layout of the bathroom, reduce the risk of leakage caused by drainage pipes passing through the floor slab, and improve drainage efficiency and living comfort. The core of this method is that the drainage pipes of sanitary fixtures (such as toilets, sinks, and showers) do not directly penetrate the floor slab. Instead, the horizontal drainage pipes are installed in the space where the floor slab is lowered (i.e., the lowered slab area) and connected to the drainage riser or main pipe on this floor.

[0003] To ensure smooth drainage, the drainage pipes laid within the drop slab must be designed with a certain slope to utilize gravity to accelerate water flow and prevent water accumulation and blockage. However, in current construction practice, there are several challenges in handling the details of implementing this drainage method:

[0004] Traditionally, bricks are often used as temporary supports. This method is not only unstable and prone to pipe displacement, but also makes it difficult to ensure the consistency and accuracy of the pipe slope, creating potential problems for future use. Furthermore, manually adjusting the height of the bricks to attempt to achieve the designed slope lacks precise control and often results in inconsistent slopes, affecting drainage performance. If improper slope settings or incorrect pipe layouts are discovered during subsequent inspections, the hardening of the bricks and cement mortar makes rectification extremely difficult and costly.

[0005] In view of the above problems, developing a new, efficient, and stable supporting structure for the installation of drainage pipes in bathroom recessed slabs has become an urgent technical challenge. This supporting structure should provide precise slope control to ensure construction efficiency and quality, while facilitating later maintenance and modifications, thereby comprehensively improving the reliability and service life of the bathroom drainage system. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a prefabricated pipe support device.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] This utility model provides a prefabricated pipe support device, including: two support modules and a connecting rod assembly. The two support modules are respectively connected to both ends of the connecting rod assembly. Each support module includes a base, a screw, an upper pipe clamp, and a lower pipe clamp. The screw is vertically connected to both sides of the base. The upper pipe clamp and the lower pipe clamp are movably connected to the screw, and the upper pipe clamp and the lower pipe clamp are joined to form a clamp cavity, which is used to pass through and support the pipe.

[0009] In one specific embodiment, the screw is provided with horn nuts both below the lower pipe clamp and above the upper pipe clamp. Tightening the horn nuts adjusts the height of the clamp cavity.

[0010] In one specific embodiment, both the upper pipe clamp and the lower pipe clamp are provided with a sliding groove, and an adapter is provided in the sliding groove for supporting the pipe.

[0011] In one specific embodiment, the adapter includes an arc-shaped adapter plate and a mounting rod. The arc-shaped adapter plate is located in the clamp cavity, and the mounting rod passes through and extends out of the slide groove. The mounting rod is connected to horn nuts on both the inner and outer sides of the slide groove.

[0012] In one specific embodiment, the linkage assembly includes a first linkage and a second linkage. The first linkage is connected to the base of one of the support modules, and the second linkage is connected to the base of the other support module. The first linkage and the second linkage are rotatably connected to adjust the angle between the two support modules.

[0013] In one specific embodiment, the first connecting rod has a collar at the end away from the base, and the second connecting rod has a pivot corresponding to the collar at the end away from the base.

[0014] In one specific embodiment, the second connecting rod extends a support protrusion on the outside of the rotating shaft, and the lower surface of the collar abuts against the support protrusion so that the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are on the same horizontal plane.

[0015] In one specific embodiment, the base is provided with an opening slot, and the first connecting rod or the second connecting rod is slidably connected to the opening slot.

[0016] In one specific embodiment, both the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are provided with mounting posts on the side near the base, and the mounting posts are slidably connected to the opening slot.

[0017] In one specific embodiment, the base is further provided with a support block at its bottom.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the prefabricated pipe support device of this utility model has the following advantages: The design allows the upper and lower pipe clamps to be movably connected to the screw rod, enabling users to easily adjust their positions on the screw rod and flexibly adjust the height of the clamping cavity. This feature allows the device to quickly adapt to pipe installation requirements at different heights and also facilitates adjustment of the pipe slope, ensuring the stability and functionality of the pipeline system in different application scenarios. Furthermore, the clamping cavity formed by the connection of the upper and lower pipe clamps tightly wraps around the pipe, providing stable support. Combined with the adjustment function of the screw rod, this ensures the pipe maintains a stable position under different loads and environments, effectively preventing displacement or deformation due to external forces and ensuring the safe operation of the pipeline system. Additionally, the prefabricated structure makes each component easy to inspect and replace. When a component is worn or damaged, it is not necessary to replace the entire component; only the damaged part needs to be replaced, reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, the quick disassembly function also facilitates regular pipeline inspection and emergency repairs.

[0031] See Figures 1 to 3 The specific embodiment shown in this utility model discloses a prefabricated pipe support device, including: two support modules 10 and a connecting rod assembly 20. The two support modules 10 are respectively connected to the two ends of the connecting rod assembly 20. Each support module 10 includes a base 11, a screw 12, an upper pipe clamp 13 and a lower pipe clamp 14. The screw 12 is vertically connected to both sides of the base 11. The upper pipe clamp 13 and the lower pipe clamp 14 are movably connected to the screw 12, and the upper pipe clamp 13 and the lower pipe clamp 14 are joined to form a clamp cavity (not shown in the figure). The clamp cavity is used to pass through and support the pipe.

[0032] Specifically, the design allows the upper pipe clamp 13 and lower pipe clamp 14 to be movably connected to the screw 12. Users can easily adjust the position of the upper pipe clamp 13 and lower pipe clamp 14 on the screw 12, thereby flexibly adjusting the height of the clamp cavity. This feature enables the device to quickly adapt to the installation requirements of pipelines at different heights, and also facilitates the adjustment of the pipeline slope, ensuring the stability and functionality of the pipeline system in different application scenarios. In addition, the clamp cavity formed by the mating of the upper pipe clamp 13 and lower pipe clamp 14 tightly wraps the pipeline, providing stable support. Combined with the adjustment function of the screw 12, it can ensure that the pipeline maintains a stable position under different loads and environments, effectively preventing the pipeline from shifting or deforming due to external forces, and ensuring the safe operation of the pipeline system. Furthermore, the prefabricated structure makes it easy to inspect and replace each component. When a component is worn or damaged, it is not necessary to replace the whole system; only the damaged component needs to be replaced, reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, the quick disassembly function also provides convenience for regular pipeline inspection and emergency repairs. In addition, because its height and slope can be flexibly adjusted, the device is suitable for various types and sizes of pipes, including but not limited to water pipes, oil pipes, and gas pipes.

[0033] In one embodiment, the screw 12 is provided with horn nuts both below the lower clamp 14 and above the upper clamp 13. Tightening the horn nuts adjusts the height of the clamp cavity.

[0034] Specifically, when it is necessary to adjust the height of the clamp cavity, the construction personnel can use tools (such as wrenches or pliers) to tighten or loosen the horn nuts at both ends. By tightening or loosening the horn nuts, the relative positions of the upper clamp 13 and the lower clamp 14 on the screw 12 can be changed, thereby adjusting the height of the pipe in the clamp cavity. Once the pipe reaches the required height and slope, the construction personnel can further tighten the horn nuts to fix the positions of the upper clamp 13 and the lower clamp 14, ensuring that they will not be displaced by external forces during subsequent use.

[0035] More specifically, by tightening the horn nut, construction workers can precisely adjust the height of the clamp cavity to meet the stringent height and slope requirements of the pipeline system. This adjustment method is more accurate and reliable than traditional manual adjustment, reducing installation problems caused by human error. Furthermore, the horn nut design makes the adjustment process simpler and more intuitive; construction workers can easily complete the adjustment using only simple tools, without complex operating procedures or professional skills. In addition, tightening the horn nut ensures that the upper clamp 13 and lower clamp 14 are firmly fixed on the screw 12. This fixing method not only improves the stability of the pipeline system but also helps prevent displacement or deformation of the pipeline due to external forces.

[0036] In one embodiment, both the upper pipe clamp 13 and the lower pipe clamp 14 are provided with a sliding groove 131, and an adapter 15 is provided in the sliding groove 131 for supporting the pipe.

[0037] Specifically, arc-shaped grooves 131 are formed on the inner sides (i.e., the side facing the pipe) of the upper pipe clamp 13 and the lower pipe clamp 14, respectively. The grooves 131 extend along the length of the pipe clamp, providing sufficient space for the adapter 15 to move. The width of the grooves 131 is precisely designed according to the dimensions of the adapter 15 to ensure that the adapter 15 can slide stably within the grooves 131 without falling off. The bottom of the adapter 15 is typically designed with raised support surfaces for direct support of the pipe. These support surfaces can be flat or arc-shaped to accommodate pipes of different diameters. The adapter 15 can be fixed at any position within the grooves 131 using bolts, nuts, or other fasteners, thereby achieving height adjustment. When installing the pipe, first select the appropriate adapter 15 according to the pipe diameter and install it in the grooves 131 of the upper pipe clamp 13 and the lower pipe clamp 14 respectively. Then, by moving the adapter 15 up and down along the grooves 131, their position relative to the pipe axis can be adjusted, thereby changing the pipe slope. Once the required slope is achieved, use fasteners to secure the adapter 15 to the corresponding position within the chute 131 to ensure that the pipeline will not be displaced by external forces during subsequent use.

[0038] More specifically, by adjusting the height of the adapter 15 along the groove 131, precise adjustment of the pipe slope can be achieved. This adjustment method is more accurate and reliable than traditional manual adjustment, helping to ensure the stability and functionality of the pipeline system. Furthermore, the sliding design of the adapter 15 within the groove 131 makes the adjustment process simpler and more intuitive. Construction personnel can easily complete the adjustment using only simple tools, without complex operating procedures or professional skills. In addition, because the adapter 15 can move freely within the groove 131, this pipe support device can adapt to the needs of pipes with different diameters and slopes. This flexibility allows for its wide application in various engineering projects.

[0039] In one embodiment, the adapter 15 includes an arc-shaped adapter plate 151 and a mounting rod 152. The arc-shaped adapter plate 151 is located in the clamp cavity, and the mounting rod 152 passes through and extends out of the slide groove 131. The mounting rod 152 is connected to horn nuts on both the inner and outer sides of the slide groove 131.

[0040] Specifically, the arc-shaped adapter plate 151 is the main part of the adapter 15. Its arc shape matches the outer contour of the pipe, ensuring a tight fit and stable support. Horn nuts are attached to both the inner and outer sides of the mounting rod 152 extending from the slide groove 131. These nuts are threaded onto the mounting rod 152 and can be easily tightened or loosened. When adjusting the height of the arc-shaped adapter plate 151, workers can use tools (such as wrenches or pliers) to tighten or loosen the horn nuts, thus changing the position of the mounting rod 152 within the slide groove 131 and moving the arc-shaped adapter plate 151 up and down.

[0041] More specifically, by tightening the horn nut, the height of the arc-shaped adapter plate 151 can be precisely adjusted, thereby achieving precise control of the pipe slope. This adjustment method is more accurate and reliable than traditional manual adjustment. Furthermore, the design of the arc-shaped adapter plate 151 allows it to fit snugly against the pipe, providing stable support. Simultaneously, the cooperation between the mounting rod 152 and the sliding groove 131, along with the fixing effect of the horn nut, further enhances the stability of the pipe support device. Moreover, since the arc-shaped adapter plate 151 can be customized according to the pipe diameter, this pipe support device can adapt to the needs of pipes with different diameters and slopes. This flexibility allows for its wide application in various engineering projects.

[0042] In one embodiment, the linkage assembly 20 includes a first linkage 21 and a second linkage 22. The first linkage 21 is connected to the base 11 of one of the support modules 10, and the second linkage 22 is connected to the base 11 of the other support module 10. The first linkage 21 and the second linkage 22 are rotatably connected to adjust the angle between the two support modules 10.

[0043] Specifically, the first link 21 and the second link 22 are rotatably connected via a rotating joint (such as a universal joint, hinge, or rotary bearing). This rotating joint allows the two links to rotate relative to each other within a certain range, thereby changing the included angle between them to accommodate bends of different angles. In other words, by adjusting the angle of the link assembly 20, this pipe support device can adapt to bends of different angles and sizes, providing great flexibility and applicability. In addition, the design of the link assembly 20 enables a stable support structure to be formed between the two support modules 10, effectively preventing deformation or displacement of the bend under stress and ensuring the safety and stability of the pipeline system.

[0044] In one embodiment, the first connecting rod 21 has a collar 211 at one end away from the base 11, and the second connecting rod 22 has a rotating shaft 221 corresponding to the collar 211 at one end away from the base 11.

[0045] Specifically, during installation, first align the pivot 221 of the second connecting rod 22 with the collar 211 of the first connecting rod 21, and then gently push it in until the pivot 221 is fully inserted into the collar 211. Once the pivot 221 is inserted into the collar 211, the angle between the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 can be adjusted by rotating one of the connecting rods. Due to the small gap between the collar 211 and the pivot 221, this rotation maintains a certain degree of stability and accuracy. To prevent accidental changes in angle during use, a locking mechanism (such as a locking screw, a clip, etc.) can be designed between the collar 211 and the pivot 221 to ensure that the angle can be fixed after adjustment.

[0046] More specifically, through the cooperation of the collar 211 and the rotating shaft 221, the angle between the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 can be easily adjusted to adapt to the needs of elbows or pipe layouts with different angles. In addition, due to the tight fit between the collar 211 and the rotating shaft 221, and the possible locking mechanism, this design can ensure that after adjustment, the connecting rod assembly 20 can provide stable support and prevent pipe deformation or displacement.

[0047] In one embodiment, the second connecting rod 22 extends a support protrusion 222 outside the pivot 221, and the lower surface of the collar 211 abuts against the support protrusion 222 so that the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 are on the same horizontal plane.

[0048] Specifically, the engagement between the support protrusion 222 and the lower surface of the collar 211 ensures that the first link 21 and the second link 22 remain on the same horizontal plane after angle adjustment, thus providing stable support. Furthermore, the engagement between the support protrusion 222 and the collar 211 simplifies and speeds up the installation of the link assembly 20, reducing installation difficulty and time.

[0049] In one embodiment, the base 11 is provided with an opening slot 111, and the first connecting rod 21 or the second connecting rod 22 is slidably connected to the opening slot 111.

[0050] Specifically, the design of the sliding connection between the opening slot 111 and the connecting rod allows the distance between the two support modules 10 to be adjusted according to actual needs, thus adapting to the support requirements of confined spaces or longer pipelines. Furthermore, this design makes the pipeline support device more adaptable and flexible, capable of handling the support requirements of different scenarios and pipelines. Additionally, since the distance can be flexibly adjusted, precise measurement and positioning are not required during installation, simplifying the installation process and improving work efficiency. Moreover, when used in confined spaces, the distance can be adjusted to fully utilize limited space resources, avoiding installation difficulties caused by insufficient space. Furthermore, by designing adjustable support modules 10 and connecting rod assemblies 20, the cost waste of customizing dedicated support structures for each pipeline length or layout is avoided, improving the economic efficiency and practicality of the device.

[0051] In one embodiment, the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 are each provided with a mounting post 212 on the side near the base 11, and the mounting post 212 is slidably connected to the opening slot 111.

[0052] Specifically, after sliding the mounting post 212 to the desired position, it is locked in the opening slot 111 using a horn nut. The horn nut design makes the locking process simpler and faster; simply rotating the nut is sufficient for tightening. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the two support modules 10, the horn nut can be loosened, and then the connecting rod can be pushed manually or with a tool to slide the mounting post 212 into the opening slot 111 to the desired position. Once adjusted to the desired position, the mounting post 212 is locked in the opening slot 111 using the horn nut to ensure that its position does not change during subsequent use.

[0053] More specifically, the sliding connection design between the mounting post 212 and the opening slot 111, along with the locking action of the horn nut, ensures a stable and reliable connection between the first connecting rod 21, the second connecting rod 22, and the base 11. Furthermore, the design of the mounting post 212 and the opening slot 111 makes distance adjustment simpler and faster, allowing adjustment without disassembling the entire connecting rod assembly 20. This design also allows the pipe support device to adapt to pipe support requirements of different lengths and layouts, improving the system's flexibility and versatility. Additionally, when used in confined spaces, the limited space can be fully utilized by adjusting the position of the mounting post 212 within the opening slot 111.

[0054] In one embodiment, the base 11 is further provided with a support block 112 at its bottom.

[0055] Specifically, the addition of support block 112 significantly enhances the stability of base 11 and its pipe support components, enabling the entire device to withstand greater loads and reducing swaying caused by vibration or external forces. Furthermore, the height adjustment function of support block 112 allows the pipe support device to adapt to uneven installation surfaces, ensuring the system's levelness and stability.

[0056] In one embodiment, the problem of drainage pipes floating in foamed concrete can be solved by adding counterweights to the device.

[0057] Specifically, for shorter pipes, it is only necessary to pass the pipe through two support modules and adjust the corresponding height and slope to use one pipe support device; for longer pipes, several pipe support devices can be arranged along the length of the pipe to meet the usage requirements.

[0058] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
