Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas pipeline technology, specifically to a protective device for buried gas pipelines. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of urban gas services, a large number of residential, industrial, commercial, and public buildings are using gas, which has significantly promoted national economic development and improved people's living standards. Indoor gas pipeline equipment is a crucial facility for gas transmission and distribution. Due to the demands of some high-end residential communities and users, especially villa owners, who believe that exposed gas pipelines are unsightly, they refuse to allow them to run on exterior walls. According to the "Urban Gas Design Code," necessary protective measures must be taken for aluminum-plastic pipes; the "Urban Gas Indoor Engineering Construction and Quality Acceptance Code" requires that buried gas pipelines be equipped with effective metal protective devices along their entire length to prevent external impact, and the thickness of the metal protective devices must be greater than 1.2mm.

[0003] Currently, most household gas pipelines and their fittings in my country are installed underground. These underground gas pipelines are typically installed using pipe section welding, which creates weld seams. Because the pipelines are buried, the limited space increases the difficulty of welding, leading to some weld defects. Furthermore, during use, thermal expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, as well as the environmental factors of the underground location, make the gas pipeline surface more susceptible to corrosion. This results in corrosion in areas with poor weld quality, reducing the lifespan of the gas pipeline and increasing the risk of leaks. To address these issues, a protective device for underground gas pipelines is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a protective device for buried gas pipelines. The present invention uses a circle formed by two arc-shaped clamps on the sealing component to fix and seal the weld seam, and uses the sealing strip and gasket inside the arc-shaped clamps to seal and protect the outer surface of the weld seam. The socket and the plug ring are sealed together to strengthen and protect the inside of the gas pipeline, thereby protecting the inner and outer surfaces of the weld seam and improving the service life of the gas pipeline.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a protective device for buried gas pipelines, including a weld between a first pipe section and a second pipe section, a sealing component with a split design on the weld surface, the sealing component including two arc-shaped clamps that fit against the weld surface, each arc-shaped clamp having an arc-shaped groove, each arc-shaped groove having a sealing strip, the sealing strip fitting against the weld surface, a socket being provided at the end of the first pipe section, and a plug ring being provided at the beginning of the second pipe section, the socket and the plug ring being sealed together.

[0006] A gasket is provided between each sealing strip and the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamp on the same side. The gasket is used to connect and fix the sealing strip to the arc-shaped clamp.

[0007] Each arc-shaped clamp has a sealing sticker at both the top and bottom ends. The sealing sticker is used to seal the end of the arc-shaped clamp on the same side, thereby preventing the ends of the sealing strip from being exposed. The two corresponding sealing stickers are glued together.

[0008] Each sealing patch has a positioning block on both the left and right sides. The positioning block is used to connect and fix the two arc-shaped clamping blocks, so that the two arc-shaped clamping blocks form a ring. Each positioning block is fixed to the arc-shaped clamping block on the same side. Each positioning block has a threaded hole symmetrically arranged in the middle. The threaded hole is used to install bolts. Every two concentric threaded holes are connected by bolts.

[0009] The outer surface of the sealing component is fitted with a protective sleeve, which is used to protect the outer wall of the gas pipeline, thereby reducing the corrosion of the gas pipeline in the buried environment. The outer surface of the protective sleeve is provided with a wear-resistant layer, which is used to improve the wear resistance of the protective sleeve.

[0010] A reinforcing sleeve is centrally located on the inner wall of the protective cylinder. This sleeve reinforces the protective sealing assembly, thereby strengthening the protection of the weld. The reinforcing sleeve fits snugly against the sealing assembly. Multiple positioning rods are located on both sides of the reinforcing sleeve. These positioning rods are used to fix the protective cylinder to the arc-shaped gasket. Each positioning rod has an arc-shaped gasket on the side closest to the sealing assembly. The arc-shaped gasket is used to assist in positioning the gas pipeline. It can reduce the vibration of the gas pipeline when it is ventilated, thereby reducing the impact of the gas hammer effect on the valves and connections on the gas pipeline. It also helps to support the protective cylinder, making it more pressure-bearing.

[0011] In summary, compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0012] 1. The weld seam is fixed and sealed by the circle formed by the two arc-shaped clamps on the sealing component. The outer surface of the weld seam is sealed and protected by the sealing strip and gasket inside the arc-shaped clamps. The internal structure of the gas pipeline is reinforced and protected by the sealing fit between the socket and the plug ring, thereby protecting the inner and outer surfaces of the weld seam and improving the service life of the gas pipeline.

[0013] 2. The protective sleeve protects the outer wall of the gas pipeline, thereby reducing the corrosion of the gas pipeline in the buried environment. The wear-resistant layer can be coated on the outer surface of the protective sleeve to improve its wear resistance.

[0014] 3. The arc-shaped gasket is used to assist in the positioning of the gas pipeline, which can reduce the vibration of the gas pipeline when it is ventilated, thereby reducing the impact of the gas hammer effect on the valves and connections on the gas pipeline. It also helps to support the protective cylinder, making the protective cylinder more pressure-bearing. Attached Figure Description

[0024] This embodiment provides a protective device for buried gas pipelines.

[0025] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown in Figure 5: Each sealing strip 203 is provided with a gasket 204 between its inner wall and the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamp 201 on the same side. The gasket 204 is arc-shaped and fits the arc-shaped clamp 201.
