[0021] Further explanation, realize the function of centering: the design of the centering mechanism makes the spiral-welded steel pipe be accurately centered, the guide round block 6 and the moving disc 7 are moved by the gas cylinder 5, the driving gear disc 14 is driven to rotate by the motor 13, the driving gear disc 14 is in meshing connection with the plurality of straight-tooth conical gears 15, the threaded rod 10 is driven to rotate, the rectangular block 11 slides in the rectangular hole 9, the position of the centering wheel 12 is changed, and the centering operation of the spiral-welded steel pipe with different diameters is realized.

[0022] Further explanation, the structure is compact and reasonable: the limiting cylinder 4 and the clamping cylinder 3 are coaxially arranged, the stability of the overall structure and the accuracy of the centering operation are ensured, meanwhile, the fixed cavity 8, the rectangular holes 9 and the connecting holes in the moving disc 7 are in communication, and the installation mode of the components makes the layout of the whole centering mechanism compact and facilitates the realization of the centering function.

[0023] As shown in Figure 2 , the plurality of rectangular holes 9 are arranged in a ring array on the side edge of the moving disc 7 with the center of the moving disc 7 as the matrix center.

[0024] Further explanation, this makes the plurality of centering wheels 12 be uniformly distributed on the circumference of the spiral-welded steel pipe, in the centering process, the centering wheels 12 can simultaneously and uniformly act on the steel pipe, the centering precision is improved, and the centering deviation caused by the uneven distribution of the centering wheels 12 is avoided.

[0027] As shown in Figure 1 The guide circular block 6 and the moving disc 7 are coaxially arranged.

[0028] Further illustrate, in the process that the cylinder 5 pushes the guide circular block 6 and the moving disc 7 to move, the stable linear motion can be maintained.

[0032] Further illustrate, in this way, the plurality of limiting wheels 18 can be uniformly distributed on the circumference of the spiral welded steel pipe, so that the steel pipe can be uniformly limited in the circumferential direction, the limiting effect is further improved, and the stability of the steel pipe in the welding process is ensured.

[0033] The utility model can be described by the following operation mode to explain its function principle:

[0034] Starting the cylinder 5

[0035] The switch of the cylinder 5 is turned on, and the cylinder 5 starts to work, and the piston end pushes the guide circular block 6 to slide in the inner wall of the limiting wheel 18, since the guide circular block 6 and the moving disc 7 are coaxially arranged and fixedly connected, the guide circular block 6 will drive the moving disc 7 to move towards the clamping cylinder 3, until the moving disc 7 approaches the spiral welded steel pipe to be centered.

[0036] Starting the motor 13

[0037] When the mobile disc 7 reaches the appropriate position, the motor 13 installed in the fixed cavity 8 is started, and the output shaft of the motor 13 drives the driving gear disc 14 to rotate. Since the driving gear disc 14 is connected with the plurality of straight-tooth bevel gears 15, the rotation of the driving gear disc 14 drives the synchronous rotation of each straight-tooth bevel gear 15.

[0038] Adjusting the position of the centering wheel 12

[0039] Each straight-tooth bevel gear 15 is fixedly sleeved on the corresponding threaded rod 10, so that the rotation of the straight-tooth bevel gear 15 drives the threaded rod 10 to rotate on the inner side wall of the connecting hole. Since the rectangular block 11 is provided with a threaded hole matched with the threaded rod 10, when the threaded rod 10 rotates, the rectangular block 11 slides on the inner side wall of the rectangular hole 9. Since the plurality of rectangular holes 9 are arranged in a ring array with the center of the mobile disc 7 as the matrix center, the plurality of rectangular blocks 11 synchronously drive the centering wheel 12 connected thereon to move towards or away from the center of the mobile disc 7, until the centering wheel 12 contacts the outer side wall of the spiral welded steel pipe and automatically adjusts the position according to the pipe diameter, so that the steel pipe is in the center position of the mobile disc 7 and the clamping cylinder 3, and the centering operation is completed.

[0040] Limiting operation

[0041] After the spiral welded steel pipe is centered, since the limiting mechanism is arranged on the inner side wall of the clamping cylinder 3, the limiting wheels 18 arranged in a ring array on the concave plates 16 on the inner side wall of the clamping cylinder 3 can assist in limiting the steel pipe. The limiting wheels 18 rotate on the inner side wall of the concave plate 16 through the rotating shaft 17, and form a constraint in the circumferential direction of the steel pipe, so as to prevent the steel pipe from moving radially or shaking in the subsequent welding process.

[0042] Welding operation

[0043] After the spiral welded steel pipe is centered and limited, welding operation can be performed. During the welding process, the centering and clamping device continuously maintains the centered state and the limited state of the steel pipe, so as to ensure the welding quality and stability.

[0044] Turning off the motor 13

[0045] After the welding is completed, the motor 13 is turned off, the motor 13 stops rotating, the driving gear disc 14 no longer drives the straight-tooth bevel gear 15 and the threaded rod 10 to rotate, and the position of the centering wheel 12 stops adjusting.

[0046] Retracting the air cylinder 5

[0047] The switch of the air cylinder 5 is operated to retract the piston end of the air cylinder 5, drive the guide circular block 6 and the mobile disc 7 to return to the initial position.

[0048] Taking out the welded steel pipe

[0049] The welded spiral welded steel pipe is taken out from the clamping cylinder 3, and the whole use process is completed.

[0050] The above merely describes a preferred embodiment of the present application, but the scope of protection of the present application is not limited thereto. Any skilled person in the art, according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application, can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the scope of protection of the present application.
