Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of stiffening ring assembly technology, and in particular to a stiffening ring assembly support device for pressure steel pipe tiles. Background Technology

[0002] In the construction of pressure steel pipe installation projects for water conservancy and hydropower projects and pumped storage power stations, the common practice is to manually transport segmented stiffening rings to the outside of the finished pressure steel pipe for positioning and assembly. Simultaneously, internal supports must be installed within the pressure steel pipe to ensure the roundness of the pipe sections and facilitate the stiffening ring assembly. For conventional processes, this stiffening ring assembly method basically meets the requirements for pressure steel pipe installation. However, it has significant drawbacks, such as requiring the finished pressure steel pipe sections to be welded as a whole, and then using internal supports for roundness adjustment before the stiffening ring assembly process. This disadvantage is particularly pronounced in underground caverns where it is impossible to directly transport finished pipe sections to the installation work surface, necessitating the assembly of the pressure steel pipe in a tile-like manner within the cavern.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to study and design an assembly support device for stiffening rings of pressure steel pipe tiles, so as to fundamentally solve the shortcomings of the conventional assembly process of stiffening rings of pressure steel pipe tiles being too complicated.

[0007] The adjustment frame is a tripod made of square tubing, with support columns distributed in a fan shape at the top of the adjustment frame;

[0008] An adjusting screw is installed at the top of the support column, and a nut is installed on the adjusting screw;

[0009] The locking plate is an arc plate, and each set of adjusting steel bars is a symmetrically arranged I-beam. The adjusting steel bars are evenly distributed on the inner side of the locking plate, and each set of adjusting steel bars is equipped with an adjusting round tube.

The nut on the adjusting screw is set between the adjusting steel and the adjusting round tube. The relative height between the support column and the adjusting round tube is adjusted by rotating the nut on the adjusting screw to adapt to the curvature of the steel pipe tile with different inner diameter pressures.

[0011] Optionally, in some embodiments, the pressure steel pipe tile stiffening ring assembly support device further includes:

[0012] The fixed frame base has the same curvature as the locking plate and is made of square tubing. The fixed frame base is installed between the adjusting steel, the adjusting round tube and the support column for further fixation.

[0029] In the construction of pressure steel pipe installation projects for water conservancy and hydropower projects and pumped storage power stations, the common practice is to manually transport segmented stiffening rings to the outside of the finished pressure steel pipe for positioning and assembly. Simultaneously, internal supports must be installed within the pressure steel pipe to ensure the roundness of the pipe sections and facilitate the stiffening ring assembly. For conventional processes, this stiffening ring assembly method basically meets the requirements for pressure steel pipe installation. However, it has significant drawbacks, such as requiring the finished pressure steel pipe sections to be welded as a whole, and then using internal supports for roundness adjustment before the stiffening ring assembly process. This disadvantage is particularly pronounced in underground caverns where it is impossible to directly transport finished pipe sections to the installation work surface, necessitating the assembly of the pressure steel pipe in a tile-like manner within the cavern.

[0030] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a stiffening ring assembly support device for pressure steel pipe tiles. This device, consisting of an adjusting frame, support columns, and a locking plate, forms a frame that can be quickly inserted into the pressure steel pipe tile. By adjusting the I-beam, adjusting the circular tube, and adjusting the screw, the height between the support column and the locking plate can be adjusted to accommodate the curvature of pressure steel pipe tiles with different inner diameters, thus achieving rapid and stable support for the pressure steel pipe tile and solving the problem of overly complex conventional pressure steel pipe tile stiffening ring assembly processes.

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the pressure steel pipe tile stiffening ring assembly support device shown in the embodiments of this application.

[0033] See Figure 1 A pressure steel pipe tile stiffening ring assembly support device, comprising:

[0034] 1. Fixed frame base, 2. Adjustment frame, 3. Support column, 4. Adjustment steel, 5. Adjustment round tube, 6. Adjustment screw, 7. Locking plate, 8. Anchor bolt and 9. Mounting base plate;

[0035] The adjusting frame 2 is an "A"-shaped tripod composed of square tubing, preferably made of 160×4.5mm square steel or 18# channel steel. It is cut to size according to the stiffening ring, with burrs removed, and six pieces are machined, numbered, and welded into an "A"-shaped tripod. Support columns 3 are fan-shaped and welded to the upper end of the adjusting frame 2. Support columns 3 are preferably made of 160×4.5mm square steel or 18# channel steel. An adjusting screw 6 is welded to the top of the support column 3, with a nut installed on it. The adjusting screw 6 is made of Q355 material φ60mm round steel, cut to size according to the stiffening ring, with burrs removed, and machined into an M58 metric coarse-thread screw. One end is left 50mm, and a 10×45° chamfer is used for welding to the support column 3. During installation, it is placed in the designed middle position of the support column 3. After checking that the verticality meets the requirements, the fillet weld is fully welded, and the weld leg size meets the requirements. Care should be taken to control welding deformation during the welding process.

[0036] The locking plate 7 is an arc plate, made of steel plate of suitable thickness, cut according to the size of the stiffening ring, and the burrs are cleaned off. Each set of adjusting steel beams 4 consists of symmetrically arranged I-beams, made of 16# I-beams, and evenly distributed and welded to the inside of the locking plate 7. Each set of adjusting steel beams 4 has an adjusting tube 5 welded inside; the adjusting frame 2 and the support column 3 are respectively installed at both ends of the adjusting steel beam 4 via adjusting screws 6. The upper end of the adjusting screw 6 passes through the adjusting steel beam 4 and the adjusting tube 5. The adjusting tube 5 has a through hole suitable for the adjusting screw 6. The nut on the adjusting screw 6 is set between the adjusting steel beam 4 and the adjusting tube 5. By rotating the nut on the adjusting screw 6, the relative height between the support column 3 and the adjusting tube 5 is adjusted to accommodate the curvature of the steel pipe tile with different inner diameter pressures.

[0037] The fixed frame base 1 and the locking plate 7 have the same curvature, and are preferably made of 160×4.5mm square steel or 18# channel steel; the fixed frame base 1 is installed between the adjusting steel 4, the adjusting round tube 5 and the support column 3 to further fix the stiffening ring assembly support device.

[0038] Anchor bolts 8 are welded evenly at equal intervals to the base 1 of the fixed frame. The anchor bolts 8 are inserted into the foundation, and their verticality and positioning dimensions are adjusted. Grouting and anchoring are required afterward. The number and specifications of the anchor bolts 8 are determined based on the overall weight of the support frame.

[0039] Mounting plate 9 is installed on adjusting frame 2 to facilitate the later lifting and transport of segmented stiffening rings and construction tools by cantilever crane.

[0040] The various embodiments of this application have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
