[0025] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined or described in one figure, it will not need to be discussed or described in detail in the description of the subsequent figures.

[0026] In order to solve the technical problems in the background art, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, this application provides a technical solution: a pipe welding auxiliary line marking device, characterized as follows:

[0027] The fixed base 1 serves as a stable base for securing the entire pipeline welding auxiliary line marking device. The fixed base 1 can be made of metal or rigid plastic to ensure its strength and stability. V-shaped columns 2 and rails 3 are arranged parallel to each other on the fixed base 1. The V-shaped columns 2 support and position the pipeline, while the rails 3 facilitate the movement of the sliding seat 11. The unique V-shaped design of the V-shaped columns 2 provides automatic centering to accommodate pipelines of different diameters. The two sides of the two V-shaped columns 2 are connected by two positioning blocks 4, which can be fixed to the V-shaped columns 2 by bolts or welding to ensure structural stability. A U-shaped block 5 is mounted on the positioning blocks 4, with a threaded hole in the center for mounting the screw 7. Guide rails 6 are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the U-shaped block 5 for the sliding of the slider 9. The screw 7 passes through the threaded hole in the U-shaped block 5 and has a rotating handle 8 installed at one end for manual rotation. The other end of the screw 7 is connected to the slider 9, which slides along the guide rails 6. A V-block 10 is provided on the slider 9, with its opening facing the V-shaped post 2, for contact with the pipe and to assist in marking. A sliding seat 11 is mounted on the track 3 and can slide along it. A clamping arm 12 is hinged to the sliding seat 11, with a clip 13 at one end for engaging a marker pen 14. A limiting groove 15 is provided on the side wall of the sliding seat 11 to limit its range of motion and ensure marking accuracy. A positioning rod 16 is mounted on the fixed seat 1, and a positioning sleeve 17 is fitted onto it. A stop pin 18 is provided on the positioning sleeve 17, with a protrusion 19 at its end. The protrusion 19 is adapted to the limiting groove 15; by rotating the positioning sleeve 17, the protrusion 19 can be engaged into the limiting groove 15, thereby fixing the position of the sliding seat 11.

[0028] In use, first place the pipe between the V-shaped posts 2, and adjust the position of the slider 9 by rotating the handle 8 so that the V-shaped block 10 contacts the pipe surface. Then, slide the sliding seat 11 along the track 3 to the appropriate position, and fix the marker pen 14 by the clip 13. Finally, rotate the positioning sleeve 17 to make the protrusion 19 engage in the limiting groove 15, fix the position of the sliding seat 11, and begin marking the welding auxiliary lines.

[0029] It should be noted that the V-block 10 is movable, and its position is located in the connecting gap between the two V-shaped posts 2. This design allows the V-block 10 to move out of or into the connecting gap of the V-shaped posts 2 to accommodate pipes of different diameters. The movement of the V-block 10 can be achieved by rotating the screw 7. When the screw 7 rotates, the slider 9 moves along the guide rail 6 of the U-block 5, thereby causing the V-block 10 to move into or out of the connecting gap of the V-shaped posts 2.

[0030] It is worth noting that one end of the U-shaped block 5 is connected to the positioning block 4 via a hinge structure, allowing the U-shaped block 5 to rotate freely on the positioning block 4. The other end of the U-shaped block 5 is designed with a hook 20. The hook 20 is a protruding part, which can be hook-shaped or buckle-shaped, used to engage with the positioning block 4 to fix the position of the U-shaped block 5. A corresponding protruding structure or notch is designed between the hook 20 and the positioning block 4, allowing the hook 20 to accurately engage with the positioning block 4. This engaging structure ensures the stability of the U-shaped block 5 during operation and prevents displacement due to external forces.

[0031] It should be noted that the arc-shaped design of the protrusion 19 makes its fit with the limiting groove 15 smoother, reducing the friction when the protrusion 19 is engaged in the limiting groove 15, thus making the positioning operation smoother. The protrusion 19 is designed as a semi-circular or elliptical arc, which ensures that when the positioning sleeve 17 is rotated, the protrusion 19 can slide smoothly into the limiting groove 15, reducing jamming.

[0032] It is worth noting that the positioning rod 16 is provided with several positioning sleeves 17, which can be distributed along the positioning rod 16 as needed. The number of positioning sleeves 17 depends on the design requirements and application scenario of the device, and can be determined according to the adjustment range and accuracy requirements of the pipe welding auxiliary line marking device. The positioning sleeves 17 are distributed along the axial direction of the positioning rod 16, which can be uniform or non-uniform according to specific adjustment requirements. This distribution allows the positioning rod 16 to fix the protrusion 19 at different positions to adapt to different marking requirements. Each positioning sleeve 17 can move independently along the positioning rod 16 to adjust the position of the protrusion 19. By rotating the positioning sleeve 17, the protrusion 19 can be engaged into the limiting groove 15 on the sliding seat 11, thereby fixing the position of the sliding seat 11.

[0033] It should be noted that the clamping arm 12 is a composite structure consisting of multiple U-shaped hinge pieces 21, a rotating shaft 22, and a clip 13. This design makes the clamping arm 12 adjustable. The U-shaped hinge pieces 21 are U-shaped components made of metal or engineering plastic, hinged end to end to form a continuous linkage structure. This design allows the clip 13 to be adjusted to different heights during use. The rotating shaft 22 is a shaft passing through the center of the U-shaped hinge piece 21 at its end, and it is hinged to the center of the U-shaped hinge piece 21 at that end, allowing the rotating shaft 22 to rotate around the U-shaped hinge piece 21. The other end of the rotating shaft 22 is hinged to the clip 13, which is used to fix the marker pen 14 or other marking tools. The clip 13 can be designed to be adjustable to accommodate marker pens 14 of different diameters.

[0034] It is worth noting that a series of scales are provided on the outer wall of the positioning rod 16. These scales can be linear or segmented, and are used to precisely indicate the position of the positioning sleeve 17 along the positioning rod 16. Each graduation on the scale can be marked with a number or symbol, which corresponds to a specific position of the positioning sleeve 17. These markings can help users quickly identify and adjust the positioning sleeve 17 to a preset position.

[0035] It is worth noting that the limiting groove 15 is located on the side wall of the sliding seat 11. Its design ensures that when the marker 14 is fixed by the clip 13, the axis of the marker 14 coincides with the plane containing the limiting groove 15. This design ensures the stability and consistency of the marker 14 during the marking process, as the axis of the marker 14 and the limiting groove 15 are on the same plane, reducing marking errors caused by axis deviation. By keeping the axis of the marker 14 and the limiting groove 15 on the same plane, marking accuracy can be improved because this alignment reduces any potential errors caused by axis deviation.

[0036] Although embodiments of this application have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this application, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
