Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pipeline installation technology, and more specifically, it relates to an auxiliary device for pipeline installation in narrow spaces. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, there is an increasing number of projects such as the renovation and expansion of municipal drainage pipe networks, the transformation of underground drainage pipes in old residential areas, and the laying of drainage pipes in narrow areas inside sewage treatment plants. A large number of drainage pipe installation operations need to be completed in narrow spaces, which makes the limitations of traditional installation methods increasingly prominent. The operating space left for inserting or connecting new water pipes is very limited, making it difficult to connect new water pipes.

[0003] Traditional water pipe connection methods often use a hot air blower to soften the water pipes, causing them to deform and complete the connection. After the connection is completed, the pipes are heated again to restore their original shape. However, using a hot air blower to soften the water pipes requires the installer to have sufficient experience. Moreover, when using a hot air blower to heat the water pipes, it is difficult to ensure that the pipes are heated evenly. If the pipes are overheated in some areas, it will lead to excessive softening or even melting, damaging the structural strength of the pipes. On the other hand, areas that are not heated enough will not deform sufficiently, affecting the connection effect and making it inconvenient for the workers to carry out the construction. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an auxiliary device for pipe installation in narrow spaces. This device solves the technical problem in existing technologies where, when using a hot air blower to heat water pipes, it is difficult to ensure uniform heating of the pipes. Local overheating of the pipes can lead to excessive softening or even melting, damaging the structural strength of the pipes, affecting the connection effect, and making it inconvenient for operators to carry out the work.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An auxiliary device for installing pipes in narrow spaces includes two sets of mounting frames;

[0007] Both sets of mounting frames have sliding grooves on one side, and two sets of clamps can be slidably installed in both sets of sliding grooves. Each set of clamps has a first mounting groove at its top. A heater is installed in the first mounting groove. A heat spreader is provided on the inner wall of the first mounting groove. One side of the heater is in contact with the heat spreader, and a heat insulation plate is provided on the other side of the heater. A cover plate is provided at the opening of the first mounting groove.

[0008] Two sets of drive rods are respectively installed between the four sets of grippers. Each of the two sets of drive rods has a connecting rod at both ends. One end of each of the four sets of connecting rods is connected to the two sets of grippers. A connecting cylinder is provided on the other side of each of the two sets of mounting frames.

[0009] The above technical solution further includes: through holes are provided in both sets of the connecting cylinders corresponding to the two sets of sliding through slots, and couplings are installed in both sets of through holes.

[0010] The above technical solution further includes: a motor is installed inside each of the two sets of connecting cylinders, and the two sets of drive rods are connected to the two sets of motors respectively through two sets of couplings.

[0011] The above technical solution further includes: a second mounting groove is provided on the top of one of the mounting frames, a display module is installed in the second mounting groove, and the display module is electrically connected to the two sets of heaters.

[0012] The above technical solution further includes: each of the two sets of connecting cylinders is connected to an installation cylinder at one end, and a telescopic component is provided at one end of each of the two sets of installation cylinders. The telescopic component includes two sets of bent pipes, and the two sets of bent pipes are respectively installed at one end of the two sets of installation cylinders.

[0013] The above technical solution further includes: the telescopic component also includes a telescopic cylinder, and the telescopic cylinder is slidably connected to one end of the two sets of bent pipes.

[0014] The above technical solution further includes: each of the two sets of mounting cylinders has a mounting through hole on one side, each of the two sets of mounting through holes has a control button installed in it, and each of the two sets of mounting cylinders has a battery mounting base.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. By embedding the heater inside the clamps, the heater heats the water and conducts the heat to the heat spreader plate. The heat spreader plate then conducts the heat to the water pipe held by the clamps, achieving a uniform heat transfer effect. Furthermore, the heat insulation plate installed on the inner wall of the clamps reduces the risk of burns when using the device. This solves the problem that it is difficult to ensure uniform heating of the pipes when using a hot air blower to heat the water pipes, which is inconvenient for operators.

[0017] 2. The dual-claw design allows the device to adapt to water pipes of different sizes. Furthermore, the display module allows for temperature adjustment based on the specific water pipe being heated and softened, ensuring uniform heating and preventing localized overheating, excessive softening, or even melting of the pipe, which could damage the pipe's structural strength and affect the connection process. This lowers the technical barrier to pipe connection. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Example:

[0026] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown:

[0027] A pipe installation auxiliary device in a narrow space includes two sets of mounting frames 1;

[0028] Both sets of mounting frames 1 have sliding grooves on one side, and two sets of clamps 3 are slidably installed in both sliding grooves. The sliding grooves and clamps 3 cooperate to achieve flexible sliding, allowing the device to be adjusted according to the pipe installation position and spatial layout, adapting to complex and ever-changing installation environments in narrow spaces, facilitating precise positioning and operation. Each set of clamps 3 has a first mounting groove on its top, in which a heater 2 is installed. A heat spreader 20 is provided on the inner wall of the first mounting groove. One side of the heater 2 is in contact with the heat spreader 20, and the heat generated by the heater 2 is evenly conducted to the pipe surface through the heat spreader 20, so that the pipe is evenly heated and softened. A heat insulation plate 4 is provided on the other side of the heater 2, which effectively prevents heat from being transferred to other parts of the device, ensuring operational safety. A cover plate 5 is provided at the opening of the first mounting groove. The cover plate 5 can be opened or closed as needed, facilitating the inspection and maintenance of the heater 2.

[0029] Two sets of drive rods 7 are respectively installed between four sets of grippers 3. Connecting rods 6 are installed at both ends of each set of drive rods 7. One end of each of the four sets of connecting rods 6 is connected to one of the two sets of grippers 3. Connecting cylinders 16 are provided on the other side of each of the two sets of mounting frames 1. Through holes are opened in each of the two sets of sliding through slots within the connecting cylinders 16. Couplings 9 are installed in each of the two sets of through holes. Motors 8 are installed in each of the two sets of connecting cylinders 16. The two sets of drive rods 7 and the two sets of motors 8 are connected by the two sets of couplings 9. The motors 8 drive the drive rods 7 to rotate through the couplings 9, which in turn drives the connecting rods 6 to move the grippers 3, achieving stable clamping and position adjustment of the pipeline. This ensures stable power transmission, precise control of the movement and clamping force of the grippers 3, and guarantees accurate and reliable positioning during pipeline installation. The couplings 9 ensure stable and efficient power transmission between the motors 8 and drive rods 7, accurately converting the rotation of the motors 8 into the movement of the grippers 3, thus improving the stability and reliability of the device operation.

[0030] One of the mounting frames 1 has a second mounting groove on its top, and a display module 11 is installed in the second mounting groove. The display module 11 is electrically connected to the two sets of heaters 2. This electrical connection to the heaters 2 allows for real-time monitoring of the heaters 2's operating status and the pipeline heating temperature. Construction personnel can promptly grasp the heating situation, ensuring the heating process meets installation requirements, guaranteeing pipeline installation quality, and facilitating timely handling of any abnormalities.

[0031] Each of the two sets of connecting cylinders 16 is connected to a mounting cylinder 13 at one end. A telescopic assembly is provided at one end of each of the two sets of mounting cylinders 13. The telescopic assembly includes two sets of bent pipes 14, which are respectively installed at one end of each of the two sets of mounting cylinders 13.

[0032] The telescopic assembly also includes a telescopic cylinder 15. The telescopic cylinder 15 is slidably connected to one end of two sets of bends 14. The telescopic cylinder 15 can slide on the bends 14. In conjunction with the mounting cylinder 13, it can flexibly change the relative position of the device and the pipeline, realize the adjustment of the pipeline position in narrow spaces, and meet the position adjustment needs in different installation scenarios.

[0033] Each of the two sets of mounting cylinders 13 has a mounting through hole on one side, and a control button 19 is installed in each of the two sets of mounting through holes. Each of the two sets of mounting cylinders 13 is provided with a battery mounting base 18. After the battery is installed in the battery mounting base 18, it can power the device, enabling the device to work normally in a narrow space without an external power source, thus improving the applicability and flexibility of the device.

[0034] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows: Before use, install the compatible lithium battery on the battery mounting seat 18 inside the mounting cylinder 13, check whether the connection of each component is firm, and ensure that the device is powered normally. Press the control button 19 on the mounting cylinder 13 to start the clamp 3 and fix it on the pipe to be heated. Set a suitable temperature through the display module 11 to preheat the device. When the preheating is complete, operate the control button 19 again to start the motor 8. The motor 8 drives the drive rod 7 and the connecting rod 6 through the coupling 9, so that the clamp 3 with the heater 2 moves in the sliding groove and the clamp 3 fits against the pipe to continue heating. After heating is completed, turn off the device and remove it. Let the device cool down. This avoids the problem of uneven heating and deformation of the water pipe caused by the use of a fan to heat the water pipe during traditional pipe installation, and facilitates the construction of the operator.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
