Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline lifting vehicle technology, specifically a pipeline lifting vehicle with flexible working arm rear folding height. Background Technology

[0002] In industries such as pipeline installation, maintenance, and transportation, it is frequently necessary to move pipelines from one location to another. Traditional manual handling methods are inefficient and pose safety hazards, especially for heavy or long pipelines. Therefore, various pipeline lifting vehicles have emerged on the market, aiming to improve the efficiency and safety of pipeline handling.

[0003] However, existing pipeline grabbing vehicles generally suffer from a lack of flexibility. Many grabbing vehicles can only grab and place pipelines along fixed trajectories and angles, making it difficult to adapt to complex and ever-changing operating environments. In addition, when not in operation or while driving, the grabbing module of some grabbing vehicles still occupies a large amount of space, which not only affects the vehicle's driving stability but may also pose safety hazards to other equipment and personnel. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a flexible pipeline lifting vehicle with a working arm that can be folded back to its maximum height, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a flexible pipeline grabbing vehicle with a folding arm, comprising a movable carrier, wherein a grabbing module is installed on the upper part of the movable carrier, the grabbing module can grab or release pipelines at any angle, and the upper part of the movable carrier also has a reserved storage area, wherein the grabbing module can be stored in the storage area after folding.

[0006] Furthermore, the grasping module includes a cross slide, a rotating seat one is mounted on the drive end of the cross slide, a base is mounted on the drive end of the rotating seat one, a telescopic arm is hinged to the upper part of the base, a rotating seat two is mounted on the telescopic end of the telescopic arm, and a mechanical claw is hinged to the drive end of the rotating seat two.

[0007] Furthermore, the cross slide includes a transverse slide and a longitudinal slide. The transverse slide is installed on the upper part of the movable carrier, and the longitudinal slide is installed on the drive end of the transverse slide. The transverse slide and the longitudinal slide are perpendicular to each other.

[0008] Furthermore, the first rotating seat is driven by a rotary hydraulic cylinder, which can drive the base, the telescopic arm, the second rotating seat, and the mechanical claw to rotate 180° in the horizontal plane.

[0009] Furthermore, the extension and retraction of the telescopic arm are driven by a length adjustment cylinder, and the pitch adjustment of the telescopic arm is driven by a pitch angle adjustment cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the mechanical gripper consists of two jaws, both of which are hinged to the drive end of the rotating seat and are opened and closed by a gripping drive cylinder. Several rollers are rotatably connected to the side of the mechanical gripper to support the pipeline when gripping it.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, it has the following advantages:

[0012] This flexible pipeline grabber with a folding boom not only allows for grabbing and placing pipelines at any angle during operation to meet complex and varied operational needs, but also enables its grabbing module to fold back into a designated storage area when not in operation or while driving, avoiding any impact on vehicle movement and improving the overall stability and safety of the vehicle.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a flexible pipeline grabbing vehicle with a folding boom in a first aspect embodiment of this utility model includes a movable carrier 1, a grabbing module 2 mounted on the upper part of the movable carrier 1, and a storage area 3 reserved on the upper part of the movable carrier 1. The grabbing module 2 can grab the pipeline at any angle, and after grabbing the pipeline, it can place the pipeline at any angle. After folding, the grabbing module 2 is located inside the storage area 3, and does not affect the movement of the movable carrier 1. Specifically:

[0025] The gripping module 2 includes a cross slide 21. A rotating seat 22 is mounted on the drive end of the cross slide 21. A base 23 is mounted on the drive end of the rotating seat 22. A telescopic arm 24 is hinged to the upper part of the base 23. A rotating seat 25 is mounted on the telescopic end of the telescopic arm 24. A mechanical claw 26 is hinged to the drive end of the rotating seat 25. The cross slide 21 can drive the entire assembly of the rotating seat 22, base 23, telescopic arm 24, rotating seat 25, and mechanical claw 26 to move in the horizontal and vertical directions. The rotating seat 22 can drive the entire assembly of the base 23, telescopic arm 24, rotating seat 25, and mechanical claw 26 to rotate 180° in the horizontal plane. The telescopic arm 24 can extend and retract, thereby increasing the gripping range of the mechanical claw 26. The rotating seat 25 can drive the mechanical claw 26 to rotate 180° in the vertical plane.

[0026] The cross slide 21 includes a transverse slide 211 and a longitudinal slide 212. The transverse slide 211 is installed on the upper part of the movable carrier 1, and the longitudinal slide 212 is installed on the drive end of the transverse slide 211. Both the transverse slide 211 and the longitudinal slide 212 are ball screw drive structures, which are existing known technologies and will not be described in detail here. The transverse slide 211 and the longitudinal slide 212 are perpendicular to each other.

[0027] The rotating seat 22 is a rotating hydraulic cylinder drive structure. When the rotating hydraulic cylinder is working, it can drive the rotating seat 22 to rotate 360°. This is a well-known technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] The pitch adjustment of the telescopic boom 24 is driven by the pitch adjustment cylinder 231. Specifically, the non-telescopic end of the pitch adjustment cylinder 231 is hinged to the base 23, and the telescopic end of the pitch adjustment cylinder 231 is hinged to the telescopic boom 24.

[0029] The extension and retraction of the telescopic arm 24 are driven by the length adjustment cylinder 241. The telescopic arm 24 is composed of several telescopic joints. The non-telescopic end of the length adjustment cylinder 241 is hinged to the non-telescopic end of the telescopic arm 24, and the telescopic end of the length adjustment cylinder 241 is hinged to the telescopic end of the telescopic arm 24.

[0030] The rotating seat 25 is a hydraulically driven structure that can drive the mechanical claw 26 to rotate. This is a well-known technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The mechanical gripper 26 consists of two jaws, both of which are hinged to the drive end of the rotating base 25 and driven by a gripping drive cylinder 261. Specifically, the gripping drive cylinder 261 can drive the mechanical gripper 26 to open and close. The non-extension end of the gripping drive cylinder 261 is hinged to the rotating base 25, and the extension end of the gripping drive cylinder 261 is hinged to the mechanical gripper 26. Several rollers 262 are rotatably connected to the side of the mechanical gripper 26. The edge of each roller 262 protrudes from the jaw. When the mechanical gripper 26 grips the pipeline, the rollers 262 support the pipeline together, thereby enabling the pipeline to rotate and adjust its position within the mechanical gripper 26.

[0032] In summary, based on the above technical solution, the pipeline grabbing vehicle is highly flexible during operation, and when not in operation or while driving, the grabbing module 2 can be folded back into the storage area 3 without causing any negative impact.

[0033] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
