Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat exchangers, and in particular to a clamping fixture for heat exchanger pipes. Background Technology
[0002] Shell-and-tube heat exchangers, also known as tubular heat exchangers, mainly work by injecting liquids of different temperatures into the tubes and shell, allowing their temperatures to interact and cooling the higher-temperature liquid while heating the lower-temperature liquid. This type of heat exchanger has a simple structure and low cost, making it the most widely used type of heat exchanger.
[0003] However, existing shell-and-tube heat exchangers are inconvenient to pipe and have low heat exchange efficiency. Therefore, multiple shell-and-tube heat exchangers are usually used in series or parallel, which makes the pipe connection and layout between shell-and-tube heat exchangers more complicated. When installing large metal pipes, it is not convenient to support and adjust the height of the other end of the pipe. If the pipe joints are not properly connected, it will cause a reduction in service life. Utility Model Content

The axis of the worm gear corresponds to the movable rod, and the worm gear is threadedly connected to the thread of the movable rod. The worm gear rotates inside the second block, and the worm rotates inside the second block and meshes with the worm gear. A hexagonal groove is set on the end face of the worm to facilitate rotation.

The guide rod 4 can be hexagonal, quadrilateral, or pentagonal. A movable rod 3 is slidably connected to the base 1, and the side wall of the movable rod 3 is threaded. A second block 11 is located at the bottom of the base 1, and the second block 11 corresponds to the axis of the movable rod 3. The movable rod 3 passes through the second block 11, and a worm gear 51 is installed inside the second block 11, with the axis of the worm gear 51 corresponding to the movable rod 3. Furthermore, the worm gear 51 is threadedly connected to the thread of the moving rod 3.
