Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipes, and more specifically, to a novel thermal insulation composite pipe. Background Technology
[0002] Insulated pipes, also known as thermal insulation pipes, are essential pipelines specifically designed for transporting liquids, gases, and other media, minimizing heat loss during transport. They are widely used in the insulation and heat preservation of pipelines in industries such as petroleum, chemical, hot springs, district heating, central air conditioning, and municipal engineering. They effectively prevent heat loss when transporting high-temperature media, prevent liquid freezing inside the pipe at low temperatures, and prevent the intrusion of external cooling and humid air, thus reducing energy consumption.
[0003] Currently, most thermal insulation pipes need to be buried underground. In order to improve the strength of the thermal insulation pipes, the outermost part of most thermal insulation pipes is made of metal, which has poor corrosion resistance and high maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of thermal insulation composite pipe with excellent thermal insulation, corrosion resistance and compressive strength.
[0005] The technical problem solved by this utility model is achieved by the following technical solution.
[0006] This utility model provides a novel thermal insulation composite pipe, which includes, from the inside out, an inner pipe, a first support frame, a steel pipe, a thermal insulation layer, a second support frame, and an outer pipe. The outer wall of the inner pipe is fixedly connected to one end of the first support frame, and the other end of the first support frame is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steel pipe. One end of the second support frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the steel pipe, and the other end of the second support frame is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer pipe. The thermal insulation layer is adhered to the outer wall of the steel pipe, and a vacuum cavity exists between the inner wall of the outer pipe and the outer wall of the steel pipe.
[0007] In some embodiments of this invention, the insulation layer is a porous polyurethane foam. The porous structure of polyurethane provides excellent thermal insulation performance. In this embodiment, the vacuum cavity and the insulation layer work synergistically, not only improving the thermal insulation performance of the composite pipe but also ensuring that the porous insulation layer continues to provide thermal insulation even after the vacuum cavity is destroyed.
[0008] In some embodiments of this utility model, the second support frame includes a radial support arranged along the radial direction of the steel pipe and a circumferential support arranged along the circumference of the steel pipe. A plurality of radial supports are spaced apart along the circumference of the steel pipe. One end of the radial support is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the steel pipe, and the other end of the radial support is fixedly connected to the inside of the outer pipe. The circumferential support is fixedly connected to the plurality of radial supports.
[0009] In some embodiments of this utility model, the inner tube and the outer tube are made of one of the following: fiberglass composite material, fiber resin-based composite material, or fiber-containing plastic.
[0010] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first support frame includes a large-diameter end and a small-diameter end, the large-diameter end being fixedly connected to the interior of the steel pipe, and the small-diameter end being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the inner pipe.
[0011] In some embodiments of this utility model, there are multiple first support frames, and multiple first support frames are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the inner tube to form support frame groups, and multiple support frame groups are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the inner tube.
[0012] In some embodiments of this utility model, a vacuum cavity exists between the inner tube and the steel tube. By setting two vacuum cavity layers and one insulation layer, a triple insulation effect is achieved. In actual use, after the outermost vacuum air is broken, it becomes an air layer. The insulation layer and the inner vacuum cavity can still continue to function as an insulation pipe. Furthermore, the air layer has better insulation performance than the steel tube and the inner and outer tubes. Therefore, the composite pipe provided by this utility model, with its two vacuum cavity layers and one insulation layer, not only has excellent insulation properties but also extends the service life of the composite pipe and maintains long-term effective insulation.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this utility model have at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0014] The insulated pipe provided by this utility model has a vacuum cavity layer and an insulation layer set between the outer pipe and the steel pipe. Both have excellent heat insulation performance, improving the insulation performance of the composite pipe. Secondly, the setting of the first support frame and the second support frame can improve the strength of the composite pipe. The outer pipe set on the outer wall of the steel pipe can protect the steel pipe and prevent the steel pipe from direct contact with the outside air, soil and water vapor, thereby protecting the steel pipe and improving the corrosion resistance of the composite pipe.
[0015] In summary, the composite pipe of this invention has excellent thermal insulation, corrosion resistance and compressive strength. Attached Figure Description
