Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bracket device technology, and in particular to a liftable LNG hose bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Due to the unique properties of liquefied natural gas (LNG), specialized pipelines are required to ensure safe and efficient transportation. Currently used hose supports are not adjustable and cannot accommodate hoses of different specifications simultaneously. LNG hoses typically consist of a multi-layered structure, including a corrosion-resistant protective layer, an insulation layer, and a reinforcement layer. On board, LNG hoses need a degree of flexibility to adapt to the ship's dynamic movements. Because of the significant weight and size of LNG hoses during transportation and use, proper support and securing are necessary to ensure their safety and normal operation. LNG hose supports serve to support the hoses, reduce pressure, and protect them. LNG hose supports are typically constructed from robust metal materials (such as steel) with sufficient strength and stability. Their design takes into account the weight, length, and environmental conditions of the hoses to ensure they can withstand sufficient load and avoid excessive stress or deformation. Supports usually consist of components such as beams, columns, and support frames, which are fixed together by welding or bolting. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a liftable LNG hose bracket for supporting and fixing the hose, reducing hose stress, protecting the hose and reducing wear, and facilitating the connection and installation between the hose and the flange.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A liftable LNG hose bracket includes a bracket platform, multiple columns, and multiple lifting bolts. The multiple columns are vertically arranged on the lower end surface of the bracket platform. Two wooden pad placement boxes are symmetrically fixed on the upper end surface of the bracket platform. Wooden pad blocks are placed inside the wooden pad placement boxes. The multiple lifting bolts are divided into two groups. The non-nut end of each lifting bolt passes through the bracket platform and extends into the wooden pad placement box to abut against the lower end surface of the wooden pad block. It is also movably connected to the wooden pad placement box.

[0006] Furthermore, during use, the wooden pad placement box is located directly below the hose, and the vertical center planes of the two coincide.

[0007] Furthermore, two vertically spaced waist-shaped grooves are provided on the side of the wooden pad placement box, and fixing bolts for fixing the wooden pad blocks are screwed into the waist-shaped grooves.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting bolt includes a bolt body and a bolt seat, the upper end face of the bolt seat is fixedly connected to the lower end face of the bracket platform, and the bolt seat is screwed to the bolt body.

[0009] Furthermore, the number of lifting bolts is four, arranged symmetrically in pairs on the bracket platform, and symmetrically positioned relative to the vertical center face of the wooden pad placement box.

[0010] Furthermore, the number of columns is three, and the top of the columns is welded to the lower end face of the bracket platform; the columns are bent columns with a bent section, and a water curtain device is fixed at the inner corner of the connection between the bent section and the vertical section located below it.

[0011] Furthermore, two rigid connecting rods spaced vertically are connected between two adjacent columns; a reinforcing structure can be connected between the lifting bolt and the column, as well as between two adjacent lifting bolts, and the two adjacent reinforcing structures combine at the lifting bolt to form a trapezoidal notch whose central axis coincides with the central axis of the lifting bolt.

[0012] This utility model's liftable LNG hose bracket facilitates the installation of LNG hoses and ensures stable and secure connections between pipelines. Considering the bracket's structural strength and actual operation and use, this utility model is practical and reasonable. Attached Figure Description
