Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe laying devices, and in particular to a natural gas pipeline laying device. Background Technology

[0002] Pipe laying equipment refers to auxiliary transport equipment and tools used in the construction and operation of natural gas pipelines.

[0003] During the installation of natural gas pipelines, when transporting the pipelines to mountainous areas using slide rails and pipeline transport vehicles, the slide rails are installed in the mountains. The natural gas pipelines are then secured to the pipeline transport vehicle. The drive mechanism inside the transport vehicle is activated, causing several wheels to rotate within the slide rails. This drive mechanism can be a motor driving gears to rotate the wheels, so there is no fixed limitation. The rotation of the wheels propels the transport vehicle to deliver the natural gas pipelines, facilitating the installation process. However, since both the slide rails and the transport vehicle are directly exposed in the mountains, over time, the wheel surfaces are prone to corrosion, rust, and aging. This increases the resistance between the wheels and the slide rails, affecting the transport vehicle's speed and reducing pipeline installation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem this utility model aims to solve is that, since both the slide rail and the pipe transport vehicle are installed in the mountains and directly exposed to the elements, over time, the surface of the wheels is prone to corrosion, rust, and aging, which increases the driving resistance between the wheels and the slide rail, affects the transport speed of the pipe transport vehicle, and reduces the efficiency of pipe laying.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a natural gas pipeline laying device, including a slide rail and a pipeline transport vehicle. Several wheels are rotatably installed on both sides of the pipeline transport vehicle. The pipeline transport vehicle is installed in the inner wall of the slide rail by means of the rolling of the wheels. A lubrication device is provided on one side of the pipeline transport vehicle at the outer surface of the wheel. The lubrication device can periodically wipe the outer surface of the wheel with lubricating oil from the oil tank through a hollow roller and a sponge block by an oil pump, so as to lubricate and maintain it.

[0006] The aforementioned components achieve the following effects: During the installation of natural gas pipelines, when transporting the pipelines to mountainous areas using slide rails and pipeline transport vehicles, the slide rails are installed in the mountains. The natural gas pipelines are then secured to the pipeline transport vehicle. The drive mechanism inside the vehicle is activated, causing several wheels to rotate within the slide rails. This drive mechanism can be a motor driving gears to rotate the wheels; therefore, no fixed limitation is imposed. The rotation of the wheels propels the pipeline transport vehicle to deliver the natural gas pipeline, facilitating installation. During use, the lubrication device can be periodically opened to evenly apply lubricating oil to the rolling wheels for lubrication maintenance. This reduces the possibility of corrosion, rust, and aging, lowers the travel resistance between the wheels and the slide rails, avoids affecting the transport speed of the pipeline transport vehicle, and improves pipeline installation efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, the lubrication device includes an oil tank, with a detachable device between one side of the oil tank and one side of the pipeline transport vehicle; an oil pump, wherein the inlet of the oil pump is fixedly installed at the outlet of the oil tank; an oil pipe, wherein one end of the oil pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the outlet of the oil pump; a guide pipe frame, wherein one side of the guide pipe frame is installed through the outer surface of one end of the oil pipe; two hollow rollers, wherein both ends of the guide pipe frame are respectively installed through one side of the two hollow rollers, the hollow rollers are hollow with an open outer surface and solid sides; and two sponge blocks, wherein the inner wall of the sponge blocks is fitted onto the outer surface of the hollow rollers, covering their hollow parts, and the outer surfaces of the sponge blocks and the hollow rollers abut against the outer surface of the wheel.

[0008] The effects achieved by the above-mentioned components are as follows: By setting up a lubrication device, when using the pipe transport vehicle, lubricating oil is first injected into the oil tank. Then, the oil pump can be started periodically to draw the lubricating oil from the oil tank into the oil pipe, which then enters the interior of the guide pipe frame, and then into the interior of the hollow roller. Finally, it penetrates into the interior of the sponge block through the holes on the surface of the hollow roller. When the wheels rotate during travel, they will squeeze the sponge block and drive the hollow pipe to rotate on the guide pipe frame, so that the lubricating oil is evenly applied to the outer surface of the wheels for lubrication and maintenance. This reduces the possibility of corrosion, rust, and aging, reduces the travel resistance between the wheels and the slide rail, avoids affecting the transport speed of the pipe transport vehicle, and improves the efficiency of pipe laying.

[0009] Preferably, bearings are fixedly installed on the outer surfaces of both ends of the guide tube frame, and the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly installed on one side of the hollow roller.

[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting bearings, the hollow roller can rotate easily with the rotation of the wheel, and at the same time, the rotational wear between the hollow roller and the guide tube frame can be reduced, thereby improving the service life of both.

[0011] Preferably, a bracket is symmetrically fixedly installed on one side of the guide pipe frame, one end of the bracket is fixedly installed on one side of the oil tank, and the other side abuts against one side of the pipe transport vehicle.

[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting up the bracket, one side of the guide tube frame can be limited and fixed, making it less prone to shaking during use and improving the stability of the lubrication operation.

[0013] Preferably, the detachable device includes a square ring block, one side of which is fixedly installed on one side of the oil tank, and the inner walls of the square ring block are provided with locking holes on both sides.

[0014] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is as follows: By setting up a detachable device, when it is necessary to maintain or replace the oil tank and oil pump, the locking block can be pressed from the locking hole into the inner wall of the square ring block, causing one end to slide to the other end in the inner wall of the slide groove, causing the spring to stretch and completely retract into the inner wall of the square ring block. After pulling the oil tank upward, the square ring block can be pulled out from the two locking blocks, thus allowing it to be removed from the pipe transport vehicle for easy maintenance and replacement. It should be noted that the hollow roller can be designed to the appropriate size according to the usage requirements, so that the distance between its outer surface and the slide rail is greater than the distance the square ring block is pulled out from the locking block, thus not hindering the operation of the detachable device.

[0015] Preferably, one end of the card block has a T-shaped longitudinal section, and the inner wall of the slide groove has a T-shaped longitudinal section.

[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting the round roller, the contact friction between one side of the locking block and the square ring block can be reduced, making it easier to push and push during installation, thus facilitating installation.

[0019] Preferably, the detachable device further includes a telescopic rod, wherein the outer surface of the telescopic rod is installed through the inner wall of the spring, and both ends are respectively fixedly installed on one side of the locking block and one side of the inner wall of the slide groove.

[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting up the telescopic rod, the inner wall of the spring can be supported and reinforced, making it less prone to damage during use.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] By installing a lubrication device, when using the pipe transport vehicle, lubricating oil is first injected into the oil tank. Then, the oil pump can be started periodically to draw the lubricating oil from the tank into the oil pipe, which then enters the guide pipe frame, the hollow roller, and finally permeates into the sponge block through the holes on the surface of the hollow roller. When the wheels rotate during travel, they squeeze the sponge block and simultaneously drive the hollow pipe to rotate on the guide pipe frame, evenly coating the outer surface of the wheels with lubricating oil for lubrication and maintenance. This reduces the possibility of corrosion, rust, and aging, lowers the travel resistance between the wheels and the guide rail, avoids affecting the transport speed of the pipe transport vehicle, and improves pipe laying efficiency.

[0032] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The natural gas pipeline laying device shown includes a slide rail 1 and a pipeline transport vehicle 4. Several wheels 5 are rotatably installed on both sides of the pipeline transport vehicle 4. The pipeline transport vehicle 4 is rolled in the inner wall of the slide rail 1 by means of the wheels 5. A lubrication device 2 is provided on one side of the pipeline transport vehicle 4 at the outer surface of the wheels 5. The lubrication device 2 can periodically wipe the outer surface of the wheels 5 with lubricating oil from the oil tank 21 through the rotating perforated roller 25 and sponge block 26 by the oil pump 22, so as to lubricate and maintain the wheels. During the installation of natural gas pipelines, when transporting the pipelines to the mountains using slide rails 1 and pipeline transport vehicles 4, slide rails 1 are installed in the mountains, and then the natural gas pipelines are tied and fixed to the pipeline transport vehicles 4. The drive mechanism inside the pipeline transport vehicles 4 is activated, causing several wheels 5 to rotate within the inner wall of the slide rails 1. The drive mechanism can be a motor driving gears to rotate the wheels 5, so there is no fixed limitation. The rotation of the wheels 5 will drive the pipeline transport vehicles 4 to transport the natural gas pipelines, facilitating pipeline installation. During use, the lubrication device 2 can be opened periodically to evenly apply lubricating oil to the rolling wheels 5 for lubrication maintenance, thereby reducing the possibility of corrosion, rust, and aging, reducing the travel resistance between the wheels 5 and the slide rails 1, avoiding affecting the transportation speed of the pipeline transport vehicles 4, and improving pipeline installation efficiency.

[0033] Figure 4 and Figure 5The lubrication device 2 shown includes an oil tank 21, with a detachable device 3 between one side of the oil tank 21 and one side of the pipe transport vehicle 4; an oil pump 22, with its inlet fixedly installed at the outlet of the oil tank 21; an oil pipe 23, with one end of the oil pipe 23 fixedly installed on one side of the outlet of the oil pump 22; a guide pipe frame 24, with one side of the guide pipe frame 24 extending through and installed on the outer surface of one end of the oil pipe 23; two hollow rollers 25, with both ends of the guide pipe frame 24 extending through and installed on one side of the two hollow rollers 25 respectively. The hollow rollers 25 are hollow, with their outer surfaces being hollow and their sides being solid; and two sponge blocks 26, with the inner walls of the sponge blocks 26 fitted onto the outer surface of the hollow rollers 25, covering their hollow parts. The outer surfaces of the sponge blocks 26 and the hollow rollers 25 abut against the outer surface of the wheel 5. When using the pipe transport vehicle 4, lubricating oil is first injected into the oil tank 21. Then, the oil pump 22 can be started periodically to draw the lubricating oil from the oil tank 21 into the oil pipe 23, which then enters the guide pipe frame 24 and the hollow roller 25. Finally, the lubricating oil penetrates into the sponge block 26 through the holes on the surface of the hollow roller 25. When the wheel 5 rotates during travel, it will squeeze the sponge block 26 and drive the hollow pipe to rotate on the guide pipe frame 24, so that the lubricating oil is evenly applied to the outer surface of the wheel 5 for lubrication and maintenance. This reduces the possibility of corrosion, rust and aging, reduces the travel resistance between the wheel 5 and the slide rail 1, avoids affecting the transport speed of the pipe transport vehicle 4, and improves the pipe laying efficiency.

[0034] Figure 4 and Figure 5 Bearings 27 are fixedly installed on the outer surfaces of both ends of the guide tube frame 24 shown. The outer ring of the bearing 27 is fixedly installed on one side of the perforated roller 25. By setting the bearings 27, the perforated roller 25 can rotate easily with the rotation of the wheel 5, and the rotational wear between the perforated roller 25 and the guide tube frame 24 can be reduced, thus improving the service life of both. A bracket 28 is symmetrically fixedly installed on one side of the guide tube frame 24. One end of the bracket 28 is fixedly installed on one side of the oil tank 21, and the other side abuts against one side of the pipe transport vehicle 4. By setting the bracket 28, one side of the guide tube frame 24 can be limited and fixed, making it less prone to shaking during use and improving the stability of the lubrication operation.

[0035] Figure 2 and Figure 3The detachable device 3 shown includes a square ring block 34, one side of which is fixedly installed on one side of the oil tank 21. Both sides of the inner wall of the square ring block 34 are provided with locking holes 35. Several sliding grooves 31 are symmetrically provided on one side of the pipe transport vehicle 4. Two locking blocks 33, one end of which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the two opposite sliding grooves 31, and the other end is inserted into the inner wall of the square ring block 34 and the locking holes 35. Two springs 32, the two ends of which are fixedly installed on one side of the locking block 33 and one side of the inner wall of the sliding groove 31, respectively. When maintenance or replacement of the oil tank 21 and oil pump 22 is required, the locking block 33 can be pressed from the locking hole 35 into the inner wall of the square ring block 34, causing one end to slide in the inner wall of the slide groove 31 to the other end, causing the spring 32 to be stretched, so that it is completely housed in the inner wall of the square ring block 34. Then, by pulling the oil tank 21 upward, the square ring block 34 can be pulled out from the two locking blocks 33, thereby removing it from the pipe transport vehicle 4 for easy maintenance and replacement. It should be noted that the hollow roller 25 can be designed to the appropriate size according to the usage requirements, so that the distance between its outer surface and the slide rail 1 is greater than the distance from which the square ring block 34 is pulled out from the locking block 33, so as not to hinder the operation of the detachable device 3.

[0036] Figure 2 and Figure 3 The longitudinal section of one end of the locking block 33 is T-shaped, and the longitudinal section of the inner wall of the slide groove 31 is also T-shaped. By making both the end of the locking block 33 and the slide groove 31 T-shaped, the shaking of the locking block 33 during sliding can be reduced, improving its stability. Several circular rollers 36 are rotatably mounted on one side of the locking block 33, and these rollers 36 are arranged at equal intervals. By setting the rollers 36, the contact friction between one side of the locking block 33 and the square ring block 34 can be reduced, making it easier to push and abut against it during installation. The detachable device 3 also includes a telescopic rod 37, the outer surface of which is installed through the inner wall of the spring 32, and both ends are fixedly installed on one side of the locking block 33 and one side of the inner wall of the slide groove 31, respectively. By setting the telescopic rod 37, the inner wall of the spring 32 can be supported and reinforced, making it less prone to damage during use.

[0037] Working principle: During the installation of natural gas pipelines, when transporting the pipeline to the mountains using slide rail 1 and pipeline transport vehicle 4, slide rail 1 is installed in the mountains, and then the natural gas pipeline is tied and fixed to pipeline transport vehicle 4. The drive mechanism inside pipeline transport vehicle 4 is activated, causing several wheels 5 to rotate within the inner wall of slide rail 1. This drive mechanism can be a motor driving gears to rotate the wheels 5, so no fixed limit is imposed. The rotation of the wheels 5 propels pipeline transport vehicle 4 to move and transport the natural gas pipeline, facilitating pipeline installation. When using pipeline transport vehicle 4, lubricating oil is first injected into the oil tank 21, and then periodically... The oil pump 22 is activated to draw lubricating oil from the oil tank 21 into the oil pipe 23, which then enters the guide pipe frame 24, the hollow roller 25, and finally permeates into the sponge block 26 through the holes on the surface of the hollow roller 25. When the wheel 5 rotates during travel, it squeezes the sponge block 26 and drives the hollow pipe to rotate on the guide pipe frame 24, spreading the lubricating oil evenly on the outer surface of the wheel 5 for lubrication and maintenance. This reduces the possibility of corrosion, rust, and aging, reduces the travel resistance between the wheel 5 and the slide rail 1, avoids affecting the transport speed of the pipe transport vehicle 4, and improves the efficiency of pipe laying.

[0038] When maintenance or replacement of the oil tank 21 and oil pump 22 is required, the locking block 33 can be pressed from the locking hole 35 into the inner wall of the square ring block 34, causing one end to slide in the inner wall of the slide groove 31 to the other end, causing the spring 32 to be stretched, so that it is completely housed in the inner wall of the square ring block 34. Then, by pulling the oil tank 21 upward, the square ring block 34 can be pulled out from the two locking blocks 33, thereby removing it from the pipe transport vehicle 4 for easy maintenance and replacement. It should be noted that the hollow roller 25 can be designed to the appropriate size according to the usage requirements, so that the distance between its outer surface and the slide rail 1 is greater than the distance from which the square ring block 34 is pulled out from the locking block 33, so as not to hinder the operation of the detachable device 3.

[0039] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
