Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thread protector technology, specifically to a thread protector with a buffer structure. Background Technology

[0002] Thread protectors are caps and bushings used to protect threads and seals during loading, unloading, transportation and storage. They protect threads from damage such as wear, corrosion and impact, ensuring the accuracy and integrity of the threads, thereby guaranteeing the reliability and sealing of threaded connections and extending the service life of threaded components. However, current thread protectors only protect the threaded area of ​​the pipe and are not convenient for protecting the ends of the pipe. Local deformation of the pipe ends is prone to occur, which will affect the subsequent connection effect of the pipe.

[0003] In the prior art, a thread protector has been proposed to address the above problems. It includes a body, a sealing plate, and a buffer body. The sealing plate is used to prevent rainwater or dust from passing through the body. One end of the body has a thread on its outer wall for connection with the internal thread of the pipe. The other end of the body is connected to one side of the buffer body. The other side of the buffer body extends along the axial direction of the body and forms a groove with the outer wall of the body for fitting the pipe. It can protect the end of the pipe. Although it is convenient to protect the threaded part and end of the pipe, the size of the thread protector is fixed, which makes it inconvenient to adjust the buffer protection range according to the diameter of different pipes. It has high limitations when providing buffer protection for pipes. Utility Model Content

[0041] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A thread protector with a buffer structure includes a protective cylinder 1, an end protection plate 2, a protective pad 3, a threaded plate 4, an elastic buffer pad 5, a buffer plate 6, an adjusting component, and a buffer structure. An elastic pad 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective cylinder 1. The protective cylinder 1 can accommodate pipes of different specifications, and the elastic pad 24 provides stable support to the outer wall of the pipe. The end protection plate 2 is detachably connected to one side of the protective cylinder 1, and the protective pad 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the end protection plate 2. The protective pad 3 has a protective groove for easy placement and support of the pipe end. To provide buffering at the pipe end, two threaded plates 4 are installed, which are moved towards each other inside the protective cylinder 1. The threaded plates 4 are provided with threads that match the inner wall of the pipe, which can provide stable support for the inner wall of pipes of different diameters. Two elastic buffer pads 5 are provided, which are symmetrically connected between the two threaded plates 4, which can buffer the vibration of the threaded plates 4, thereby reducing the impact of vibration on the inner wall of the pipe. Buffer plates 6 are fixedly connected to each threaded plate 4, and the adjustment component is set between the two buffer plates 6. The buffer structure is installed on each buffer plate 6.

[0043] refer to Figure 2 as well as Figure 3The adjustment assembly includes an adjustment plate 7, an adjustment rod 8, a main gear 9, an adjustment cylinder 10, a double-ended screw 11, and a driven wheel 12. The adjustment plate 7 is located between two threaded plates 4. The adjustment rod 8 is rotatably connected between the adjustment plate 7 and the end protection plate 2. The main gear 9 is fixedly connected to the adjustment rod 8. There are two adjustment cylinders 10, which are respectively connected to two buffer plates 6. An adjustment frame 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the adjustment cylinder 10. The adjustment plate 7 has an adjustment groove for the adjustment frame 23 to slide, which can limit the sliding of the adjustment frame 23 on the adjustment plate 7, so that the adjustment cylinder 10 can drive the buffer plate 6 to move stably. The double-ended screw 11 is threaded between the two adjustment cylinders 10. The double-ended screw 11 has symmetrical threads in opposite directions. The driven wheel 12 is installed on the double-ended screw 11, and the main gear 9 meshes with the driven wheel 12.

[0044] When the adjusting rod 8 drives the double-headed screw 11 to rotate through the meshing of the main gear 9 and the driven wheel 12, the two adjusting cylinders 10 will move towards each other on the double-headed screw 11, causing the two adjusting cylinders 10 to drive the two buffer plates 6 to move towards each other, thereby adjusting the support and buffer range between the two threaded plates 4, so that the two threaded plates 4 can support the inner wall of pipes of different specifications.

[0045] refer to Figure 4 The buffer structure includes a buffer cylinder 13, a buffer spring 14, a buffer rod 15, and a buffer strip 16. There are two buffer cylinders 13, which are symmetrically connected to adjacent buffer plates 6. The buffer spring 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the buffer cylinder 13. The buffer rod 15 is fixedly connected to the buffer spring 14 and is slidably connected to the buffer cylinder 13. The buffer strip 16 is connected to the buffer rod 15. A buffer groove for the buffer strip 16 to slide is provided on the inner wall of the buffer cylinder 13.

[0046] When the protective cylinder 1 and the pipeline are subjected to external impact, the resulting vibration will be symmetrically transmitted to the two buffer cylinders 13 through the buffer plate 6, and the two buffer springs 14 will be compressed or stretched to a certain extent. The kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy and stored through the elastic deformation of the buffer springs 14, thereby reducing the impact force of the vibration. When the buffer springs 14 move, the buffer rod 15 will drive the buffer strip 16 to move. The buffer strip 16 will move in the buffer groove. The energy is consumed by the viscous resistance between the buffer strip 16 and the buffer groove, which can avoid the secondary impact caused by the reciprocating vibration of the buffer springs 14, thereby reducing the impact of vibration generated during loading, unloading or transportation on the pipeline.

[0047] refer to Figure 1 as well as Figure 3A rotating cylinder 17 is detachably connected to one side of the end protection plate 2. A rotating plate 18 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 17. A rotating opening matching the rotating plate 18 is opened on the adjusting rod 8, and a rotating ring 19 is fixedly connected to the rotating cylinder 17.

[0048] After the rotating cylinder 17 is installed on the end protection plate 2, the rotating plate 18 will be inserted into the rotating port on the adjusting rod 8. When the operator rotates the rotating cylinder 17 through the rotating ring 19, the rotating plate 18 will drive the adjusting rod 8 to rotate stably, so that the adjusting rod 8 can drive the double-headed screw 11 to rotate stably through the meshing of the main gear 9 and the driven wheel 12.

[0049] refer to Figure 1 Two connecting brackets 21 are symmetrically connected to the end protection plate 2. Both connecting brackets 21 are threadedly connected to the protective cylinder 1 with connecting screws 22. Two fixing rods 20 are symmetrically connected to one side of the adjusting plate 7. Fixing grooves matching the fixing rods 20 are opened on both the end protection plate 2 and the protective pad 3.

[0050] By tightening the two connecting screws 22 between the protective cylinder 1 and the two connecting brackets 21, the end protection plate 2 can be installed and removed on the protective cylinder 1. When the end protection plate 2 is installed on the protective cylinder 1, the two fixing rods 20 will drive the fixing plate to be installed inside the protective cylinder 1, so that the main gear 9 can mesh with the driven wheel 12 to rotate the double-ended screw 11.

[0051] In summary, this thread protector with a buffer structure first places the pipe to be loaded, unloaded, or transported into the protective cylinder 1, and then installs the end protection plate 2 inside the protective cylinder 1, allowing the pipe end to move into the protective groove on the protective pad 3. Simultaneously, according to the pipe specifications, the rotating cylinder 17 rotates, causing the rotating plate 18 to drive the adjusting rod 8 to rotate. At the same time, the adjusting rod 8 drives the double-headed screw 11 to rotate through the meshing of the main gear 9 and the driven wheel 12. Through the rotation of the double-headed screw 11, the two adjusting cylinders 10 drive the two buffer plates 6 to move towards each other, causing the two threaded plates 4 to move towards each other and support the inner wall of the pipe. Thus, the pipe can be stably placed inside the protective cylinder 1. When vibration occurs during loading, unloading, or transport, multiple buffer springs 14 will be compressed or stretched to a certain extent by the vibration, and the kinetic energy will be converted into elastic potential energy and stored through elastic deformation, reducing the impact of vibration on the pipe. At the same time, the protective pad 3 and the elastic pad 24 will buffer and protect the pipe end and outer wall, thereby improving the protection effect during pipe loading, unloading, or transport.

[0052] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
