[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a large-diameter seamless steel pipe straightening fixture includes a base 1, two clamping blocks 2 that are respectively moved left and right and connected to both sides of the base 1, and an auxiliary straightening mechanism.

[0023] The base 1 has a support 4 in the middle corresponding to the steel pipe 3. The steel pipe 3 is placed on the support 4. When the two clamping blocks 2 clamp and straighten the steel pipe 3, they maintain a distance from the support 4.

[0024] The auxiliary straightening mechanism includes a fixed platform 5, a movable platform 6, and an auxiliary straightening block 7. The fixed platform 5 has a lead screw 8 at its rear end, and a guide rod 9 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixed platform 5. The fixed platform 5 also has a drive mechanism 10 for driving the lead screw 8 to rotate at its front end. The auxiliary straightening block 7 is screwed onto the lead screw 8. The two guide rods 9 pass through corresponding guide holes on the auxiliary straightening block 7. The auxiliary straightening block 7 is a flat disc shape corresponding to the inner diameter of the steel pipe 3. When straightening, the auxiliary straightening block 7 is coaxially arranged with the steel pipe 3. The movable platform 6 has connection holes corresponding to the lead screw 8 and the guide rods 9.

[0025] The fixed platform 5 is fixed to the front end of the base 1, and the movable platform 6 is movably connected to the rear end of the base 1.

[0026] The working principle of the above structure is as follows: Initially, the moving platform 6 is removed, and the thin-walled, large-diameter seamless steel pipe is placed on the support 4. Since the distance between the two guide rods 9 is much smaller than the inner diameter of the steel pipe 3, the steel pipe 3 can be directly pushed into the space between the two clamping blocks 2 along the support 4. Furthermore, since the bending point of the steel pipe 3 generally does not occur at the end of the steel pipe 3, the auxiliary straightening block 7 located at the rear end of the fixed platform 5 can be directly inserted into the end of the steel pipe 3. After the steel pipe 3 is pushed in, the two clamping blocks 2 close together to clamp and straighten the steel pipe 3. The tube 3 is initially straightened under the action of the two clamping blocks 2; then the moving seat is moved to the rear end of the base 1, and the lead screw 8 and the two guide rods 9 are respectively passed through the corresponding holes on the moving seat to provide support for the lead screw 8 and the two guide rods 9. The drive mechanism 10 is started, causing the auxiliary straightening block 7 to move along the inside of the steel tube 3 to perform fine straightening of the steel tube 3, ensuring the coaxiality of the steel tube 3 and repairing some of the dents in its tube wall. After the fine straightening is completed, the auxiliary straightening block 7 is reset, the two clamping blocks 2 are reset, the moving table 6 is removed, and the straightened steel tube 3 can be pulled out.

[0027] The advantages of the above structure are: the structure is simple, and the auxiliary straightening block 7, together with the two clamping blocks 2, can straighten the steel pipe 3 while completing the fine calibration and pipe wall repair of the steel pipe 3. It is especially suitable for the straightening operation of thin-walled large-diameter seamless steel pipes.

[0028] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support 4 is a long strip-shaped slide rail, and the top of the slide rail is arc-shaped.

[0029] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the rear end of the support 4 extends beyond the rear end of the base 1, so that the steel pipe 3 can be placed on the support 4 for pushing in or pulling out.

[0030] In another embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the auxiliary straightening block 7 has a frustum at both the front and rear ends to facilitate entry into or exit from the steel pipe 3.

[0031] In another embodiment, the movable stage 6 is provided with a connecting sleeve corresponding to the lead screw 8. The connecting sleeve is rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting hole on the movable stage 6 to avoid damage to the lead screw 8.

[0032] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, wall plates 11 are provided on both sides of the base 1, and hydraulic cylinders 12 for driving the clamping blocks 2 to move are provided on the two wall plates 11 respectively. The piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 12 is connected to the corresponding clamping block 2.

[0033] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 1 is also provided with multiple guide rails 13 corresponding to the two clamping blocks 2. The bottom of the two clamping blocks 2 is provided with sliders corresponding to each guide rail 13. Each slider matches the corresponding guide rail 13 to avoid the clamping blocks 2 from shifting during the clamping and straightening process.

[0034] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer sides of the two wall panels 11 are also provided with reinforcing plates 14 to ensure the reliability of the wall panels 11.

[0035] In another embodiment, the bottom of the mobile platform 6 is also provided with rollers equipped with brakes.

[0036] In another embodiment, the drive mechanism 10 is a forward and reverse geared motor.
