Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline installation technology, specifically a fixing clamp for fixing pipelines. Background Technology

[0002] Pipeline laying and installation are extremely common in many fields such as construction and industry.

[0003] Traditional pipe fixing methods often involve simply fitting metal or plastic clamps directly onto the pipe and securing them to the supporting structure with bolts. This method has many drawbacks. For example, during long-term use, the pipe may shift due to factors such as thermal expansion and contraction, and vibration. Ordinary clamps cannot effectively adapt to these changes, which can easily cause the pipe connection to loosen or even leak. At the same time, it can also generate a lot of noise, affecting the surrounding environment and the stability and safety of the pipeline system. Therefore, this utility model provides a fixing clamp for fixing pipes. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the issue that ordinary clamps cannot effectively adapt to changes in pipelines due to thermal expansion and contraction, vibration, etc., which can easily lead to loosening or even leakage at pipeline connections, as well as generating significant noise and affecting the stability and safety of the surrounding environment and pipeline system, this utility model provides a fixing clamp for securing pipelines.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fixing clamp for securing pipes, comprising:

[0007] The main clamping piece is arc-shaped, and a first wide lug and a second wide lug are fixedly connected to both sides of the main clamping piece respectively;

[0008] The main clamping plates are symmetrically arranged in two sets. The two first wide ears corresponding to the two sets of main clamping plates are connected by hinges, and the two second wide ears corresponding to the two sets of main clamping plates are connected by spring bolt assemblies.

[0009] The spring bolt assembly includes: a bolt, a spring, and a nut, with the spring disposed inside the nut.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] A rubber buffer pad is provided on the inner side of the main clamping piece.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] The main clamp, the first wide ear, and the second wide ear are an integral structure.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The hinge includes a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate. One side of the first connecting plate and one side of the second connecting plate are rotatably connected by a hinge shaft. The first connecting plate is fixedly connected to the outside of a first wide lug, and the second connecting plate is fixedly connected to the outside of another first wide lug.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] An insertion hole is provided on the side of the first wide ear, between the first connecting plate and the main body clip or between the second connecting plate and the main body clip. A stabilizing component is installed in the insertion hole, and the stabilizing component is clipped on the outside of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] The stabilizing component includes a cylinder with protruding plates fixedly connected to both ends. The protruding plates have hexagonal slots at their ends, and the shape of the insertion hole is consistent with the shape of the protruding plates.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] This utility model, through the design of a main clamping plate, a first wide ear, a second wide ear, a hinge, and a spring bolt assembly, allows the main clamping plate to have a certain degree of deformation capability. When the pipeline inside the main clamping plate expands or experiences strong vibration, the main clamping plate can deform and push the spring bolt assembly, causing the spring bolt assembly to loosen elastically to adapt to possible changes in the pipeline and ensure the stability and safety of the pipeline system.

[0022] This utility model, through the design of a stabilizing component, allows for the installation of a stabilizing component in some application scenarios where such a large deformation is not required. The stabilizing component directly bears the force transmitted from the main body clamp, thereby effectively protecting the hinge and ensuring that the deformation allowance at the location of the first wide ear is appropriate.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 - Figure 5 This application illustrates a fixing clip for fixing pipes, which is used to fix two pipes together. Specifically, it includes: two sets of symmetrically arranged main clamping pieces 1, a first wide lug 2, a second wide lug 3, a hinge 5, and a spring bolt assembly 4.

[0032] The main clamp 1 is arc-shaped, with two sets of main clamps 1 symmetrically arranged to form a ring (this ring corresponds to the outer side of the pipe, and if necessary, the inner side of the ring can be designed with a corresponding annular protrusion / recess). The inner structure of the main clamp 1 is consistent with / fits the shape of the actual pipe structure. The two sides of the main clamp 1 are respectively fixedly connected with a first wide ear 2 and a second wide ear 3. The design of the wide ear structure allows the main clamp 1 to have a certain degree of deformation. The main clamp 1 is generally made of high-strength engineering plastic injection molding (including the first wide ear 2 and the second wide ear 3 being molded together). The two first wide ears 2 corresponding to the two sets of main clamps 1 are connected by hinges 5, and the two second wide ears 3 corresponding to the two sets of main clamps 1 are connected by spring bolt assembly 4.

[0033] like Figure 1 After connection, when the pipe inside the main clamp 1 expands or vibrates strongly, the main clamp 1 can deform and push the spring bolt assembly 4, causing the spring bolt assembly 4 to loosen elastically to adapt to possible changes in the pipe and ensure the stability and safety of the pipeline system.

[0034] like Figure 5As shown, the spring bolt assembly 4 includes: bolt 401, spring 402, and nut 404. The spring 402 is disposed inside the nut 404. Washers 403 can be designed at the contact points between the spring 402 and the nut 404 and between the spring 402 and the second wide lug 3. The force on the pipe is transmitted to the main clamp 1 and then to the position of the second wide lug 3. When the two second wide lugs 3 apply force to the outside, they can push the spring 402 to elastically move, causing the inner areas of the two symmetrically arranged main clamps 1 to elastically deform.

[0035] In one embodiment, a rubber buffer pad 7 is provided on the inner side of the main clamp 1. The rubber buffer pad is attached to the inner side of the main clamp 1 by a vulcanization process to enhance the friction between the main clamp 1 and the pipe and to protect the surface of the pipe.

[0036] In one embodiment, the main clamp 1, the first wide ear 2, and the second wide ear 3 are an integral structure, which facilitates manufacturing. Moreover, the integral structure is easy to reset after deformation and is not easily damaged.

[0037] In one embodiment, the hinge 5 adopts a stainless steel hinge structure. The hinge 5 specifically includes: a first connecting plate 501 and a second connecting plate 502. One side of the first connecting plate 501 and one side of the second connecting plate 502 are rotatably connected by a hinge shaft 503. The first connecting plate 501 is fixedly connected to the outside of a first wide ear 2, and the second connecting plate 502 is fixedly connected to the outside of another first wide ear 2.

[0038] The connection between hinge 5 and the first wide lug 2 is made during the manufacturing of the fixing clamp for securing pipes, and can be achieved by bonding. After bonding, a strength test is performed. In the actual installation process, only the spring bolt assembly 4 needs to be installed, making installation very convenient and quick.

[0039] In one embodiment, a socket is provided on the side of the first wide ear 2 and between the first connecting plate 501 and the main body clip 1 or between the second connecting plate 502 and the main body clip 1. A stabilizing member 6 is installed in the socket and is clipped on the outside of the first connecting plate 501 and the second connecting plate 502.

[0040] The hinge pin in hinge 5 is located outside the first wide ear 2. When the main clamping plate 1 is under force, the main clamping plate 1 and the first wide ear have a large deformation margin. In some application scenarios, such a large deformation is not required. A stabilizing component 6 can be installed. The stabilizing component 6 directly bears the force transmitted from the main clamping plate 1, thereby effectively protecting hinge 5 and ensuring that the deformation margin at the location of the first wide ear 2 is appropriate.

[0041] In one embodiment, the stabilizing member 6 includes a cylinder 601, with a protruding plate 602 fixedly connected to both ends of the cylinder 601. The end of the protruding plate 602 is provided with a hexagonal groove 603. The shape of the insertion hole is consistent with the shape of the protruding plate 602 so that the protruding plate 602 can be inserted through the insertion hole. The inner side of the protruding plate 602 is generally designed with a bevel so that it can be rotated and locked on the outer side of the first connecting plate 501 / second connecting plate 502.

[0042] When using the fixing clamp for fixing the pipe, the two main clamping pieces 1 are clamped on the outside of the pipe, and then the spring bolt assembly 4 is pre-tightened. One end of the stabilizing member 6 is passed through the insertion hole, and the stabilizing member 6 is rotated with a hex wrench so that the convex plate 602 is clamped on the outside of the first connecting plate 501 / second connecting plate 502. Then the spring bolt assembly 4 is tightened.

[0043] Generally, the lengths of the first wide ear 2 and the second wide ear 3 are consistent with the length of the main clamping piece 1, which meets the matching requirements of the connection between the two pipes. The spring bolt assembly 4 and the stabilizing piece 6 are each provided in two sets to ensure that the fixing clamp used to fix the pipes has sufficient clamping force on both pipes.
