Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of marine engineering pipeline boots, and specifically relates to a marine engineering pipeline boot that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] In marine engineering construction, pipeline systems are key facilities for oil and gas transportation and resource development. Pipeline boots, as crucial components for supporting and securing pipelines, directly impact project progress and construction efficiency due to their ease of installation. As marine engineering expands into deep-sea areas, the demands for speed and stability in pipeline installation are constantly increasing. Traditional pipeline boot installation processes are complex and consume significant manpower and time. Therefore, developing a marine engineering pipeline boot with a rational structural design and easy installation can effectively improve construction efficiency and ensure the smooth progress of marine engineering projects.
[0003] Existing technologies have specifically developed some easy-to-install marine engineering pipeline boots. For example, Chinese patent publication number "CN217355837U" discloses "a new type of embedded pipe shoe" which uses a bottom plate to seal the weld between the bottom and the pipe support. This weld can be painted directly, reducing the possibility of missed welds, inability to weld, and inability to apply paint later on site. The embedded fit between the boss bottom plate and the groove of the bottom plate can restrict the horizontal axial and radial freedom of the pipeline, achieving paint protection at the weld of the pipe shoe, horizontal axial and radial limitation of the pipeline, reducing the amount of anti-corrosion painting work at the weld of the pipe shoe, reducing construction costs, ensuring construction quality, and facilitating civilized construction on site.
[0004] Although the weld between the bottom of the lower base plate and the pipe support is sealed and welded, allowing for direct painting and reducing issues like missed welds, inability to weld, and inability to touch up paint later on-site, the embedded fit between the boss base plate and the groove of the lower base plate restricts the horizontal axial and radial freedom of the pipeline. This achieves paint protection at the pipe shoe weld, horizontal axial and radial limitation of the pipeline, reduces the amount of anti-corrosion painting work at the pipe shoe weld, lowers construction costs, and ensures construction quality, the aforementioned structure cannot be easily replaced and installed during use. This will cause delays for later workers during replacement and installation, slowing down the progress and hindering the effective improvement of construction efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a marine engineering pipeline boot that is easy to install, so as to solve the problems of marine engineering pipeline boots.
[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A marine engineering pipeline boot that is easy to install includes a base plate. A raised platform is integrally formed on the upper end of the base plate. Mounting seats are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the raised platform. Connecting blocks are engaged inside the mounting seats on both sides. A lower fixing bracket is fixedly installed on the upper end of each connecting block. Upper fixing brackets are threadedly connected to both sides of the upper end of the lower fixing bracket. Anti-slip pads are provided inside both the lower and upper fixing brackets. A pipeline body is fixedly installed inside the upper and lower fixing brackets. A connecting collar is fixedly provided at the center of the outer ring of the pipeline body. A limiting rod is integrally formed on the opposite surfaces of the two upper fixing brackets. Positioning seats are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper ring of the pipeline body. The ends of the two limiting rods away from the upper fixing brackets are engaged inside the positioning seats.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the mounting bases fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the protrusion are provided with mounting grooves inside, and the mounting grooves are provided with first slots on both sides inside the mounting grooves. The two connecting blocks are slidably installed inside the mounting bases through the mounting grooves.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution, a first slot is provided on both sides of the interior of the two connecting blocks. A first spring is fixedly installed inside the first slot. A first locking block is fixedly installed at the end of the first spring away from the first slot. The first locking block is engaged and installed inside the first slot.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution, both sides of the connection between the upper and lower fixed frames are integrally formed with protruding plates, and a round hole is opened in the center of each protruding plate. A cylindrical rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the protruding platform integrally formed on both sides of the lower fixed frame.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the cylindrical rod is provided with internal threads, and a threaded rod is connected to the internal threads of the cylindrical rod. The threaded rod is connected to the internal threads of the cylindrical rod through the protrusions integrally formed on both sides of the upper fixing frame.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution, both of the upper ends of the positioning seats are provided with insertion slots, and the two sides of the insertion slots are provided with second slots. The ends of the two limiting rods away from the upper fixed frame are slidably installed inside the positioning seats through the insertion slots provided inside the upper ends of the positioning seats.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution, a second slot is provided on both sides of the end of the two limiting rods away from the upper fixed frame. A second spring is fixedly installed inside the second slot. A second locking block is fixedly installed on the end of the second spring away from the second slot. The second locking block is engaged and installed inside the second slot.
[0014] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:
[0015] First, when installing the connecting block, align the connecting block with the mounting groove of the mounting base and slide it in along the groove direction. Inside the first groove on both sides of the connecting block, the elastic locking structure composed of the first spring and the first locking block plays its role. During the insertion of the connecting block, the first locking block is squeezed by the inner wall of the mounting base and retracts into the first groove. When the connecting block slides to the appropriate position, the first locking block pops out under the elastic force of the first spring and locks into the first locking groove, realizing a stable connection between the connecting block and the mounting base, completing the initial construction of the pipe shoe foundation frame, and providing a faster and more efficient way to build pipelines.
[0016] Second, insert the limiting rod into the insertion slot of the positioning seat. The second spring and the second locking block structure inside the limiting rod have the same locking principle as the connecting block. After being inserted into place, the second locking block is locked into the second slot under the action of the second spring, further restricting the movement of the pipeline and ensuring that the pipeline remains stable in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0024] Example
[0025] refer to Figures 1-6This embodiment of a marine engineering pipeline boot that is easy to install includes a base plate 12. The upper end of the base plate 12 is integrally formed with a protrusion 11. Mounting seats 7 are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the protrusion 11. Connecting blocks 9 are snapped into the interior of the mounting seats 7 on both sides. A lower fixing frame 6 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the connecting block 9. An upper fixing frame 4 is threadedly connected to the upper sides of the lower fixing frame 6. Anti-slip pads 17 are provided inside the lower fixing frame 6 and the upper fixing frame 4. A pipeline body 5 is fixedly installed inside the upper fixing frame 4 and the lower fixing frame 6. A connecting collar 2 is fixedly provided at the center of the outer ring of the pipeline body 5. A limiting rod 3 is integrally formed on the opposite side of the two upper fixing frames 4. Positioning seats 18 are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper ring of the pipeline body 5. The ends of the two limiting rods 3 away from the upper fixing frames 4 are snapped into the interior of the positioning seats 18.
[0026] refer to Figures 2 to 3 The mounting base 7, which is fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the protrusion 11, has mounting grooves 14 inside. Each side of the mounting groove 14 has a first locking groove 15. Both connecting blocks 9 are slidably installed inside the mounting base 7 through the mounting grooves 14. Each side of the connecting blocks 9 has a first slot 23 inside. A first spring 22 is fixedly installed inside each first slot 23. A first locking block 21 is fixedly installed at the end of the first spring 22 away from the first slot 23. The first locking block 21 engages inside the first locking groove 15. When installing the connecting block 9, align the connecting block 9 with the mounting base 7. The groove 14 is slidably inserted along the groove direction. Inside the first groove 23 on both sides of the connecting block 9, the elastic locking structure composed of the first spring 22 and the first locking block 21 plays a role. During the insertion of the connecting block 9, the first locking block 21 is squeezed by the inner wall of the mounting seat 7 and retracts into the first groove 23. When the connecting block 9 slides to the appropriate position, the first locking block 21 pops out under the elastic force of the first spring 22 and locks into the first locking groove 15, realizing a stable connection between the connecting block 9 and the mounting seat 7, completing the initial construction of the pipe shoe foundation frame, and providing a faster and more efficient function for building pipelines.
[0027] refer to Figures 1 to 6Both sides of the connection between the upper fixed frame 4 and the lower fixed frame 6 have integrally formed protruding plates 13. The center of each protruding plate 13 has a round hole 16. The bottom of the integrally formed protrusions 11 on both sides of the lower fixed frame 6 is fixedly installed with cylindrical rods 8. The cylindrical rods 8 have internal threads 27. The internal threads of the cylindrical rods 8 are connected to threaded rods 1. The threaded rods 1 are threadedly connected to the internal threads 27 of the cylindrical rods 8 through the protrusions on both sides of the upper fixed frame 4. During the tightening process, the anti-slip pads 17 inside the lower fixed frame 6 and the upper fixed frame 4 are tightly fitted with the pipe body 5, which not only increases the friction and prevents the pipe from sliding during use, but also plays a buffering and protective role to avoid damage to the pipe due to external force collision. At the same time, the connecting collar 2 at the center of the outer ring of the pipe body 5 provides additional positioning and support points for the pipe, enhancing the overall stability of the pipe after installation.
[0028] refer to Figures 4 to 5 Both positioning seats 18 have insertion slots 19 on their upper interiors. Second slots 20 are formed on both sides of each insertion slot 19. The ends of the two limiting rods 3 furthest from the upper fixed frame 4 are slidably installed inside the positioning seats 18 via the insertion slots 19. The ends of the two limiting rods 3 furthest from the upper fixed frame 4 have second openings 24 on both sides. A second spring 25 is fixedly installed inside each second opening 24. A second locking block 26 is fixedly installed at the end of the second spring 25 furthest from the second opening 24. The second locking block 26 engages inside the second slot 20. When the limiting rod 3 is aligned with the insertion slot 19 of the positioning seat 18 and inserted, the structure of the second spring 25 and the second locking block 26 inside the limiting rod 3 is the same as the engaging principle of the connecting block 9. After insertion, the second locking block 26 engages with the second slot 20 under the action of the second spring 25, further restricting the movement of the pipe and ensuring the pipe remains stable in both horizontal and vertical directions.
[0029] Operating principle and advantages: Installation of the tube shoe begins with the base plate 12. The base plate 12, serving as a foundation support component, is placed at the predetermined installation position in the marine engineering project. Its integrally formed upper protrusion 11 provides a stable platform for subsequent component installation. Mounting seats 7 are fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the protrusion 11, each with an internal mounting groove 14 and a first locking groove 15. This is a key structure for installing the connecting block 9. When installing the connecting block 9, align it with the mounting groove 14 of the mounting seat 7 and slide it in along the groove direction. The elastic locking structure composed of the first spring 22 and the first locking block 21 within the first groove 23 on both sides of the connecting block 9 functions. During the insertion of the connecting block 9, the first locking block 21 is squeezed by the inner wall of the mounting seat 7, pushing it towards the first groove 23. 3. Internal contraction: When the connecting block 9 slides to the appropriate position, the first locking block 21 pops out under the elastic force of the first spring 22 and engages with the first locking groove 15, realizing a stable connection between the connecting block 9 and the mounting base 7, completing the initial construction of the pipe shoe foundation frame. After the connecting block 9 is installed, the lower fixing frame 6 is fixed on the upper end of the connecting block 9. The lower fixing frame 6 and the upper fixing frame 4 are combined through the threaded connection on both sides. In specific operation, the upper fixing frame 4 is placed above the corresponding position of the lower fixing frame 6, and the threaded rod 1 passes through the round holes 16 of the protrusions and protrusion plates 13 on both sides of the upper fixing frame 4 in sequence, and engages with the internal threads 27 inside the cylindrical rods 8 on both sides of the lower fixing frame 6 to tighten. During the tightening process, the anti-slip pads 17 inside the lower fixing frame 6 and the upper fixing frame 4 and the pipe... The tight fit of the main body 5 not only increases friction and prevents the pipe from sliding during use, but also provides cushioning protection to prevent damage from external impacts. Simultaneously, the connecting collar 2 at the center of the outer ring of the main body 5 provides additional positioning and support points, enhancing the overall stability of the pipe after installation. The integrally formed limiting rod 3 of the upper fixing bracket 4 cooperates with the positioning seat 18 on the outer ring of the main body 5. The limiting rod 3 is inserted into the insertion slot 19 of the positioning seat 18. The second spring 25 and the second locking block 26 structure inside the limiting rod 3 operate on the same locking principle as the connecting block 9. After insertion, the second locking block 26, under the action of the second spring 25, engages with the second locking groove 20, further restricting the movement of the pipe and ensuring its stability in both horizontal and vertical directions. The pipe shoe, after installation, maintains stability in the vertical direction. The base plate 12, through structures such as the raised platform 11, mounting base 7, and connecting block 9, evenly transfers the weight and force of the pipeline to the foundation support surface, providing stable support for the pipeline. The fixing structure composed of the lower fixing frame 6 and the upper fixing frame 4, together with the anti-slip pad 17, connecting collar 2, limiting rod 3, and positioning seat 18, fixes and limits the pipeline from multiple directions, ensuring stability even in complex marine environments such as currents and waves, preventing displacement and swaying, and guaranteeing the normal operation of the marine engineering pipeline system. In actual use, if pipeline maintenance or adjustment is required, simply reverse the operation, loosen the threaded rod 1, and separate the upper fixing frame 4 from the lower fixing frame 6.By releasing the locking mechanism between the limiting rod 3 and the positioning seat 18, and between the connecting block 9 and the mounting seat 7, the pipe shoe can be easily disassembled for pipework operations. After the operations are completed, the pipe can be reinstalled according to the installation steps.
