Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flame retardancy testing of pipes, and in particular to a device for testing the flame retardancy performance of HDPE pipes. Background Technology

[0002] HDPE pipe (high-density polyethylene pipe) is a type of plastic pipe made from high-density polyethylene resin through an extrusion molding process. It possesses excellent corrosion resistance, impact resistance, and flexibility, making it suitable for water supply, drainage, gas transmission, agricultural irrigation, and other applications. HDPE pipes are lightweight, easy to install, and have a smooth inner wall, resulting in low fluid resistance and effectively reducing energy consumption. They have a long service life (up to 50 years or more), are environmentally friendly and non-toxic, recyclable, and have excellent heat-fusion connection performance, ensuring reliable joint sealing. Furthermore, HDPE pipes exhibit outstanding low-temperature resistance, functioning stably within a temperature range of -60℃ to 60℃, making them an ideal replacement for traditional metal pipes.

[0003] While existing technologies can achieve certain results in testing the flame retardant performance of HDPE pipes, they suffer from drawbacks. The current methods require a large number of samples, leading to lengthy sample processing and analysis times and causing inconvenience. Therefore, we propose a flame retardant performance testing device for HDPE pipes, which solves these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the background technology by proposing a device for testing the flame retardant performance of HDPE pipes.

The outer wall of the rotating block is provided with limiting blocks arranged in a ring array and having elastic elements. The inner wall of the inner liner is provided with partition rings arranged in a linear array. Flame injectors are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the inner liner divided by the partition rings.

[0006] When using this device, the pipe to be tested can be inserted into the inner chamber from one side of the housing. Finally, a limiting block is inserted into the pipe, and the limiting block can fix the pipe under the action of a spring. After fixing, the side cover is closed, and the motor and flame emitter are turned on. The control panel can be used to adjust the flame emitter to different axial positions for spraying. Under the action of the partition ring, it is divided into multiple combustion chambers, and the combustion effect of different chambers can be adjusted. The surface physical properties can be recorded using a camera. The motor can drive the pipe to rotate, so that the heating in all directions is uniform. This device can simulate multiple combustion effects on the same pipe, realize the flame-retardant effect of the pipe under different flame combustion degrees, facilitate comparison, and has high practicality.

[0007] Preferably, the outer walls on both sides of the housing are provided with collection grooves. The collection grooves are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the housing via mounting base one. The collection grooves mainly store fuel for use by the flamethrower. At the same time, the fixing of the mounting base one enhances the structural stability and extends the service life of the equipment.

[0008] Preferably, a transmission pipe is provided between the collection tank and the box body. The transmission pipe is connected to the flame injector through a branch pipe buried inside the box body.

[0009] Preferably, a side cover is provided on one side of the outer wall of the enclosure. The side cover is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the enclosure. A handle is rotatably installed on one side of the side cover. The rotatable connection between the side cover and the handle simplifies the operation process, facilitates quick opening and closing of the enclosure, improves testing efficiency, and enhances the sealing performance of the equipment.

[0010] Preferably, a bracket is fixed to the lower end of the housing, and a base is fixed to the lower end of the bracket. The combination of the bracket and the base provides stable support, reduces the interference of vibration on the testing process, and ensures the clarity and consistency of the data collected by the camera.

[0011] Preferably, a controller is fixed to the upper end of the housing, and a high-temperature resistant camera arranged in a linear array is provided on the upper end of the inner liner. The information collected by the camera is post-processed by the controller and transmitted to the back-end control system. A control panel is fixed to one side of the outer wall of the housing. The controller integrates data processing functions, analyzes the combustion images collected by the camera in real time, and achieves precise parameter control in combination with the control panel.

[0012] Preferably, a motor is fixed to one outer wall of the housing, the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotation center of one side of the rotating block, a plug rod is fixed to the lower end of the limiting block, the plug rod is inserted into the limiting block, a spring is provided between the bottom of the limiting block and the outer wall of the rotating block, and one side of the limiting block is designed with an inclined angle. The motor drive, in conjunction with the spring limiting block, realizes automatic centering and rotation of the pipe. The inclined angle design, in conjunction with the spring, facilitates the insertion and removal of the pipe.

[0013] Preferably, a pressure booster is provided on one side of the outer wall of the chamber. The pressure booster is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the chamber via a mounting base two. The pressure booster appropriately increases the internal pressure of the inner liner to ensure complete combustion. The pressure booster optimizes the combustion conditions by adjusting the pressure of the inner liner, simulating a real high-pressure environment, making the test results more practically valuable.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0015] I. This utility model achieves efficient multi-condition testing of the flame retardant performance of pipes by combining the independent combustion chamber of the partition ring with a controller, camera, and booster. It can detect various combustion effects on the surface of a single-end pipe.

[0016] Second, based on the first beneficial effect, the design of elastic limit, uniform heating by rotation, and residue collection not only improves the testing accuracy, but also takes into account the ease of operation and environmental friendliness. Overall, it can perform diverse testing effects on a single section of pipeline and obtain a variety of reliable data.
