Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spraying technology, and in particular to a spraying device for the inner coating of steel pipes. Background Technology

[0002] During the internal coating process of steel pipes, existing spraying equipment often suffers from low rotation speed and small atomization range, leading to defects such as uneven coating and numerous pinholes, thus affecting the first-pass yield. These problems primarily arise from insufficient spraying equipment rotation speed, resulting in poor paint atomization and an inability to form a uniform and dense coating film. Furthermore, uneven particle size distribution during spraying also contributes to insufficient coating coverage, further resulting in pinholes and leaks. Patent application CN221674691U discloses a coating spraying device for the inner wall of steel pipes, comprising: a motor; a rotary cup, which includes an outer rotary cup and an inner rotary cup, the inner rotary cup being concentrically embedded within the outer rotary cup; the lower part of the outer rotary cup wall has multiple annularly distributed through holes, and the upper part of the inner rotary cup wall has multiple annularly distributed through holes; a gap is provided between the cup walls of the outer rotary cup and the inner rotary cup; the cup opening of the rotary cup faces the motor, and the rotary cup is connected to the output shaft of the motor; and a liquid outlet pipe, which is a rigid pipe, with its front end extending into the inner rotary cup and facing the through holes on the cup wall of the inner rotary cup. This device is used to solve the problems of flow marks and uneven coating in existing epoxy resin coatings, as well as the technical problem that airless nozzles cannot be inserted into small-diameter steel pipes with diameters ranging from 158 to 406 mm, making it impossible to spray the inner wall. However, the gap between the outer and inner rotating cups of this device is easily clogged during paint spraying, and the inner rotating cup is fixedly connected to the outer rotating cup via a connecting column at the bottom of the outer rotating cup, making it difficult to clean the gap. Furthermore, the device's integrated design cannot meet the needs of actual spraying. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is based on the technical solution of the present invention and provides detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures; however, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] This embodiment provides a steel pipe internal coating spraying device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a pneumatic motor drive base 1, a valve core 2, a paint tube 4, a pneumatic motor 6, a rotary nozzle fixing shaft 7, and a rotary nozzle 8. The pneumatic motor drive base 1 is connected to the pneumatic motor 6 through the valve core 2; the paint tube 4 is connected to the pneumatic motor drive base 1; and the rotary nozzle 8 is connected to the pneumatic motor 6 through the rotary nozzle fixing shaft 7.

[0026] like Figure 2As shown in (2a), the pneumatic motor drive base 1 is provided with an inclined outward channel 11, and a central hole is provided at the center of the pneumatic motor drive base 1. One end of the central hole is connected to the external paint pipeline, and the other end is connected to the paint pipe 4 through the inclined outward channel 11. Figure 2 As shown in (2b), six air channels 12 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the central hole. One end of the air channel 12 is connected to the external compressed air pipeline, and the other end is connected to the valve core 2. The pneumatic motor drive base 1 has a threaded hole 13 at the lower edge of the end of the air channel 12 that is connected to the external compressed air pipeline. The end of the threaded hole 13 is flared and is used to add lubricating oil to the pneumatic motor 6 to improve the service life of the motor.

[0027] The pneumatic motor drive base 1 serves as the mounting foundation for the pneumatic motor 6. Air passage 12 provides an air path, ensuring that compressed air from the outside can smoothly enter the pneumatic motor 6. The valve core 2 is a key component of the air path. By controlling the airflow in and out, it regulates the speed and direction of rotation of the pneumatic motor 6. The design of the valve core 2 typically achieves efficient airflow distribution, ensuring the smooth operation of the pneumatic motor 6. The pneumatic motor 6 is the power source for the entire spraying device. Compressed air enters the valve core 2 through air passage 12, driving the rotor of the pneumatic motor 6 to rotate. The rotation of the pneumatic motor 6 provides power support for subsequent spraying actions.

[0028] The steel pipe internal coating spraying device also includes a first paint pipe fixing bracket 3 and a second paint pipe fixing bracket 5. The first paint pipe fixing bracket 3 and the second paint pipe fixing bracket 5 are located outside the pneumatic motor 6, and the paint pipe 4 is fixed to the first paint pipe fixing bracket 3 and the second paint pipe fixing bracket 5. The front end of the paint pipe 4 is bent inwards and extends into the rotating nozzle 8. The paint pipe 4 is used to transport the internal coating paint. The material of the paint pipe typically needs to have good corrosion resistance and wear resistance to adapt to different types of paint. The first paint pipe fixing bracket 3 and the second paint pipe fixing bracket 5 securely install the paint pipe 4 on the pneumatic motor 6, preventing the paint pipe 4 from loosening or shifting due to vibration during spraying, thereby ensuring the stability of paint transport.

[0029] The pneumatic motor 6 adopts a low-noise, high-speed pneumatic grinder, with an idle speed of 65,000 r / min.

[0030] The rotating nozzle 8 is connected to the rotating nozzle fixing shaft 7 via a fastening screw 9. The rotating nozzle fixing shaft 7 and the fastening screw 9 fix the rotating nozzle 8 to the output end of the pneumatic motor 6. Through the fixing action of the rotating nozzle fixing shaft 7 and the fastening screw 9, a tight connection between the rotating nozzle 8 and the pneumatic motor 6 is ensured, enabling the rotational kinetic energy of the pneumatic motor 6 to be efficiently transferred to the rotating nozzle 8.

[0031] The rotary nozzle 8 is a key component of the spraying device, responsible for atomizing and uniformly spraying the inner coating paint onto the object surface. A cross-sectional view of the rotary nozzle 8 is shown below. Figure 3 As shown in (3a), the rotary nozzle 8 is cylindrical with a hollow bottom, and the front end of the paint tube 4 extends into the bottom of the rotary nozzle 8. Figure 3 As shown in (3b), the outer surface of the rotary nozzle 8 is provided with uniformly distributed spiral spray holes. Through the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation and the shearing action of the airflow, the paint is dispersed into fine droplets, thus achieving uniform spraying. When the pneumatic motor 6 drives the rotary nozzle 8 to rotate, the paint enters the nozzle through the paint pipeline. Under the combined action of the high-speed rotation of the nozzle and the airflow, the paint is atomized into fine particles and uniformly sprayed onto the object surface. This atomization method can improve the adhesion and spraying efficiency of the paint while reducing paint waste.

[0032] The working principle of the steel pipe internal coating spraying device proposed in this utility model is as follows:

[0033] Compressed air enters the pneumatic motor 6, driving its rotor to rotate. The rotational kinetic energy of the pneumatic motor 6 is transmitted to the rotating nozzle 8 via the rotating nozzle fixing shaft 7 and fastening screws 9, causing it to rotate at high speed. The inner coating paint is delivered to the rotating nozzle 8 through the paint pipe 4. Under the high-speed rotation of the rotating nozzle 8 and the shearing action of the airflow, the paint is atomized into fine particles and evenly sprayed onto the object surface. By adjusting the rotation speed of the pneumatic motor 6 and the paint delivery rate, the thickness and uniformity of the coating can be controlled. This spraying method is suitable for surfaces of various complex shapes and can achieve high-quality coating coverage. Therefore, the steel pipe inner coating spraying device proposed in this utility model, due to the high rotation speed of the pneumatic motor, has a large atomization range and good atomization effect, fully ensuring the atomization distance of the paint, and can spray steel pipes with an inner diameter of φ40mm to φ400mm.

[0034] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of this utility model through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
