[0030] like Figures 1-5 As shown;

[0031] A natural gas pipeline welding device includes a guide assembly 1 and a clamping and rotating fixture 2 disposed on the guide assembly 1. A pipeline 3 is disposed on the clamping and rotating fixture 2, and a coaxial rotation limiting assembly 4 is disposed on the guide assembly 1.

[0032] This implementation plan addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art, such as the difficulty in ensuring the coaxiality of the pipeline to be welded, leading to poor welding quality; the pipeline is prone to shaking or displacement during welding, affecting the stability and accuracy of the welding. Furthermore, traditional welding equipment has poor adaptability to pipelines of different diameters, requiring frequent tooling changes and reducing work efficiency. In practical terms, this problem is clearly real and difficult to solve. Therefore, to address this technical problem, a natural gas pipeline welding device is provided.

[0033] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure;

[0034] In conjunction with the above, the coaxial rotation limiting assembly 4 includes a support plate 41 fixed on the guide assembly 1, a centering and tightening mechanism 42 is provided on the support plate 41, and a left limiting mechanism 43 and a right limiting mechanism 44 are movably provided on the centering and tightening mechanism 42.

[0035] The centering and tightening mechanism 42 includes a U-shaped support 421 fixedly mounted on the support plate 41, a lead screw 422 connected between the left and right ends of the U-shaped support 421 via bearings, and a pair of guide slide rods 423.

[0036] A geared motor is installed on the U-shaped support 421. The rotor of the geared motor is fixedly connected to the lead screw 422, and the threads at the left and right ends of the lead screw 422 are opposite.

[0037] A left threaded sleeve 424 and a right threaded sleeve 425 are screwed onto the threads in different directions at the left and right ends of the lead screw 422, respectively. A left sliding sleeve 426 and a right sliding sleeve 427 that slide left and right are respectively sleeved on the left and right ends of the slide rod 423.

[0038] A left support seat 428 is fixed on the left threaded sleeve 424 and the left slide cylinder 426, and a right support seat 429 is fixed on the right threaded sleeve 425 and the right slide cylinder 427. A limit seat 45 is provided on both the left support seat 428 and the right support seat 429, and a slot 451 is provided on the limit seat 45.

[0039] The left limit mechanism 43 and the right limit mechanism 44 are the same size and are arranged symmetrically on the left and right.

[0040] The left limiting mechanism 43 includes a rotating ring 431 that is engaged inside the slot 451. The rotating ring 431 rotates inside the slot 451. A limiting cylinder 432 is provided inside the rotating ring 431. A sliding rod 433 is provided on the limiting cylinder 432.

[0041] A locking bolt 434 is screwed into the limiting cylinder 432 through a threaded hole. The bottom end of the locking bolt 434 is movably provided with a limiting arc plate 435 through a bearing. The bottom end of the slide rod 433 is fixed on the limiting arc plate 435.

[0042] Installation and Commissioning: Install the guide assembly 1 on a suitable work platform, ensuring its stability and reliability. Install the clamping rotary fixture 2 on the guide assembly 1 and adjust its position. Place the pipe 3 to be welded on the clamping rotary fixture 2 and clamp and fix the pipe in place using the fixture. Fix the support plate 41 of the coaxial rotation limit assembly 4 to the guide assembly 1, ensuring the support plate is securely installed.

[0043] Centering Operation: Start the reduction motor on the U-shaped support 421, which drives the lead screw 422 to rotate. Since the thread directions at the left and right ends of the lead screw 422 are opposite, the left threaded sleeve 424 and the right threaded sleeve 425 will move in opposite directions on the lead screw 422. At the same time, the left slide cylinder 426 and the right slide cylinder 427 slide on the slide rod 423, thereby driving the left support seat 428 and the right support seat 429 to move, so that the left limit mechanism 43 and the right limit mechanism 44 move closer to or further away from the pipeline, thus achieving pipeline centering.

[0044] Limiting Operation: Based on the pipe diameter, loosen the locking bolt 434, adjust the height of the limiting arc plate 435 to ensure tight contact with the outer wall of the pipe, and then tighten the locking bolt 434 to fix the limiting arc plate 435. During welding, when the pipe rotates under the drive of the clamping rotating fixture 2, the rotating ring 431 rotates within the slot 451, and the limiting cylinder 432 and the limiting arc plate 435 rotate accordingly, limiting the pipe and preventing it from shaking or displacing.

[0045] Welding process: After completing the centering and limiting operations, welding of the natural gas pipeline can begin. After welding is completed, disassemble the device and remove the welded pipeline by reversing the steps.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
