Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ductile iron pipe technology, specifically to a device for precise control of cement quantity in the inner lining of cast iron pipes. Background Technology

[0002] Ductile iron pipes are pipes made by centrifugally casting molten iron of grade 18 or higher with the addition of spheroidizing agents using a centrifugal ductile iron casting machine at high speed. They are also known as ductile iron pipes or ductile cast pipes. They are mainly used for water supply and gas transmission in municipal and industrial enterprises, and are the preferred material for water supply pipes. They are also widely used in drainage fields, such as drainage pipe networks, urban rainwater treatment, and urban sewage treatment systems. During the finishing process of ductile iron pipes, cement mortar needs to be evenly coated on the inner wall. The industry standard for cement mortar has a thickness control standard. Too little thickness is not conducive to corrosion resistance, while too much thickness wastes costs.

[0003] During the centrifugal rotation process of ductile iron pipes of different diameters, a certain amount of cement mortar needs to be applied. However, in the current production process, the amount of cement mortar applied cannot be accurately known. The industry standard is to calculate the amount of cement mortar based on the thickness of the socket after the lining is completed. This makes it difficult to accurately control the amount of cement used in the lining, which is not conducive to cost control and overall pipe control. Therefore, this does not meet the current requirements, and a device for precise control of the amount of cement used in the lining of ductile iron pipes is proposed. Utility Model Content

After the support is lifted by a hydraulic cylinder, the cast pipe body is placed on two supports and fixed by two stabilizing rods. Then, the hydraulic cylinder drives the support to slowly descend, causing the column to press down on the weighing sensor, thereby obtaining the weight of the cast pipe body before the cement is applied. At this time, personnel inject cement mortar into the cast pipe body until the preset weight is reached, thus achieving precise control of the amount of cement used for the inner lining of the cast pipe body and solving the problems in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a precise control device for cement quantity in cast pipe lining, comprising a cast pipe body and a support, wherein at least two supports are provided, each located below both ends of the cast pipe body.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This utility model uses a hydraulic cylinder to lift the support frame, then places the cast pipe body on two supports. The cast pipe body is fixed by two stabilizing rods. Afterwards, the hydraulic cylinder drives the support frame to slowly descend, causing the column to move with the support frame and press down on the weighing sensor, thus obtaining the weight of the cast pipe body before the material is laid. At this time, the operator injects cement mortar into the cast pipe body until the preset weight is reached, achieving precise control of the amount of cement used for the inner lining of the cast pipe body. The weight of the cast pipe body before and after the material is laid is displayed on a screen. The operator can subtract the two numbers to obtain the weight of the injected cement, thus more intuitively controlling the amount of material laid, avoiding cement waste, and reducing production costs.

[0015] 2. This utility model uses a motor to drive the lead screw to rotate. The lead screw drives two sliders to move simultaneously. When the two sliders move towards the two ends of the lead screw at the same time, the upper ends of the two stabilizing rods move towards the casting pipe body at the same time. This makes the two stabilizing rods and one limiting rod form a triangular frame to fix the position of the casting pipe body, which improves the stability of subsequent weighing and material placement operations.

[0022] To address the difficulty in accurately controlling the amount of cement used for the inner lining, which hinders cost control and overall pipe system management, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a device for precisely controlling the amount of cement used in the lining of cast pipes, comprising a cast pipe body 1 and a support 2. At least two supports 2 are provided, with each support 2 located below both ends of the cast pipe body 1. A positioning plate 7 and a hydraulic cylinder 4 are provided below the support 2.

Stabilizing rods 302 are provided on both sides of the load-bearing rod 201. The two stabilizing rods 302 are respectively connected to the two ends of the limit rod 202. The upper end of the stabilizing rod 302 contacts the side of the cast pipe body 1. The contact surface between the stabilizing rod 302 and the cast pipe body 1 is provided with anti-slip rubber pads. A fixing plate 701 is provided below the positioning plate 7. A sleeve 702 is provided inside the positioning plate 7. The upper end of the column 206 is connected to the base plate 205. The lower end of the column 206 passes through the sleeve 702 and contacts the weighing sensor 6. The hydraulic cylinder 4 is installed on the fixing plate 701.

[0024] After the hydraulic cylinder 4 lifts the support 2, the cast pipe body 1 is placed on the two supports 2. The cast pipe body 1 is fixed by two stabilizing rods 302. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the support 2 to slowly descend until the upper end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 is completely separated from the base plate 205, so that the column 206 moves with the support 2 and presses down the weighing sensor 6, thereby obtaining the weight of the cast pipe body 1 before the material is laid. At this time, the personnel inject cement mortar into the cast pipe body 1 until the preset weight is reached, so as to achieve precise control of the amount of cement used for the inner lining of the cast pipe body 1. The weight of the cast pipe body 1 before and after the material is laid is displayed on the screen. The weight displayed on the screen is automatically zeroed before the cast pipe body 1 is weighed. The personnel can obtain the weight of the injected cement by subtracting the two numbers, so as to more intuitively control the amount of material laid, avoid cement waste, and further reduce production costs.

[0025] The load-bearing rod 201 has a driven wheel 502 inside, which is mounted on the lead screw 3. The extension plate 204 has a driving wheel 501 inside, which is connected to the motor shaft 5.

Several transmission protrusions are provided on the contact surface between the belt and the driving wheel 501 and the driven wheel 502. The transmission protrusions are engaged inside the grooves and move with the belt, thereby driving the driving wheel 501 and the driven wheel 502 to rotate. One end of the lead screw 3 is connected to one end of the base plate 205 by a bearing. The other end of the lead screw 3 passes through the load-bearing rod 201 and is connected to the other end of the base plate 205 by a bearing.

A transmission shaft 3021 is provided inside the elongated hole 3012. The transmission shaft 3021 is connected to the lower end of the stabilizer rod 302.

[0026] After the motor 5 drives the moving drive wheel 501, driven wheel 502 and lead screw 3 to rotate in sequence, the lead screw 3 then drives the two sliders 301 to move simultaneously. When the two sliders 301 move towards the two ends of the lead screw 3 at the same time, the upper ends of the two stabilizing rods 302 move towards the casting pipe body 1 at the same time, so that the two stabilizing rods 302 and the limiting rod 202 form a triangular frame to fix the position of the casting pipe body 1, which improves the stability of subsequent weighing and material placement operations, improves the accuracy of weighing results, and further improves the accuracy of cement dosage control.

[0027] Working principle: After the hydraulic cylinder 4 lifts the support 2, the cast pipe body 1 is placed on the two supports 2. The cast pipe body 1 is fixed by two stabilizing rods 302. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 4 drives the support 2 to slowly descend until the upper end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 is completely separated from the base plate 205, so that the column 206 moves with the support 2 and presses down the weighing sensor 6, thereby obtaining the weight of the cast pipe body 1 before the material is laid. At this time, the personnel inject cement mortar into the cast pipe body 1 until the preset weight is reached, so as to achieve precise control of the amount of cement used for the inner lining of the cast pipe body 1.
