Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ductile iron pipe production technology, specifically to an anti-collision device for ductile iron pipes. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the entire cast iron pipe industry typically stacks cast iron pipes on rails for transshipment or storage during the entire production, transportation, and storage process. However, with the development strategy of environmental protection and energy conservation, existing cast iron pipes are becoming thinner and lighter while ensuring their service life. This directly increases the risk of damage from collisions between thin-walled cast iron pipes and rails, especially at the ends of the rails.

[0003] To prevent cast pipes from falling from the end of the track and causing serious safety hazards, the existing method is to weld a wedge-shaped iron to the end of the track to block and limit the pipe body at the end of the track to prevent it from falling. However, when the cast pipe comes into contact with the wedge-shaped iron, the thin pipe wall or the outer coating of the pipe wall will generally be damaged due to the hard impact, thereby reducing the product quality of the cast pipe.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned defects, the creator of this utility model has finally obtained this utility model after a long period of research and practice. Utility Model Content

[0022] The above-mentioned and other technical features and advantages of this utility model will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 This is a front view of the structure of the ductile iron pipe anti-collision device in this embodiment; Figure 2 This is a side view of the structure of the ductile iron pipe anti-collision device in this embodiment.

[0025] The ductile iron pipe anti-collision device of this utility model includes a connecting seat 1 and a buffer wheel 2. The connecting seat 1 is fixedly installed at the end of the track 3. The buffer wheel 2 is cylindrical, and a rotating hole is provided on the axis of the buffer wheel 2. A rotating shaft 4 is provided in the rotating hole, and the rotating shaft 4 is fixedly installed on the connecting seat 1. The rubber buffer wheel 2 limits the contact of the pipe body on the track 3, thereby avoiding hard contact with the pipe body. At the same time, the rotatable buffer wheel 2 can also prevent scratching of the outer coating of the pipe body when the pipe body at the end of the track 3 is removed.

[0026] Specifically, the connecting seat 1 includes two side plates 11 and a bottom plate 12. The bottom plate 12 is fixedly welded to the bottom of the track 3. The two side plates 11 are symmetrically and vertically fixed to both ends of the bottom plate 12. The two side plates 11 are welded and fixed to both sides of the track 3, and the upper end surface of the side plate 11 does not exceed the upper edge surface of the track 3, thereby avoiding collision between the tube on the track 3 and the edge of the side plate 11. The connecting seat 1 with this structure can ensure strong overall stability to effectively support the buffer wheel 2.

[0027] A connecting plate 13 is provided on the end of the side plate 11 away from the track 3. The connecting plate 13 is provided with a connecting hole. The two ends of the rotating shaft 4 are respectively set in the connecting holes of the two side plates 11, thereby realizing the rotational connection between the buffer wheel 2 and the connecting seat 1. The axis of the connecting hole extends beyond the upper edge of the track 3, ensuring that the buffer wheel 2 can have a large contact surface with the tube on the track 3 for buffering collision.

[0028] In this embodiment, the buffer wheel 2 adopts a cylindrical structure made of integral rubber, and the buffer wheel 2 as a whole provides contact cushioning.

[0029] Generally, both ends of the rotating shaft 4 are threaded with limit nuts 5. The two limit nuts 5 are respectively set on both sides of the connecting seat 1, so as to fix the position of the rotating shaft 4 on the connecting seat 1, and at the same time facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the buffer wheel 2.

[0030] By using the design of this utility model, the tube body can be restricted from sliding down at the end of the track 3, while avoiding hard collisions between the end of the track 3 and the tube body, thus maximizing the protection of the tube body and the outer coating of the tube body and improving the quality of the product leaving the factory.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] When the track 3 is used as a storage rack to hold the tube for a long time, the tube at the end will press against the buffer wheel 2 for a long time. The buffer wheel 2, which is made of whole rubber material in Embodiment 1, is prone to deformation, which will cause uneven thickness of the wheel body, resulting in poor buffering effect, or deform the rotating hole and prevent it from rotating effectively.

[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, Figure 3 This is a front view of the structure of the ductile iron pipe anti-collision device in this embodiment; Figure 4 This is a top view of the structure of the ductile iron pipe anti-collision device in this embodiment.

[0034] In this embodiment, the buffer wheel 2 includes a cylindrical wheel body and a buffer layer wrapped around the outer circumferential surface of the wheel body. The buffer layer is made of rubber, and the wheel body is made of metal. A buffer assembly is provided on the connecting seat 1 to provide elastic support for the buffer wheel 2, reduce the deformation of the buffer wheel 2 caused by long-term compression of the pipe, and thus improve the service life of the buffer wheel 2.

[0035] The two connecting plates 13 are connected by a fixing plate 14 to form a U-shaped frame structure. The connecting plate 13 can move linearly along the upper edge of the corresponding side plate 11. An adjusting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the ends of the two side plates 11 away from the track 3. The adjusting plate 15 and the fixing plate 14 are arranged in parallel. An adjusting rod 16 is vertically arranged on the fixing plate 14. An adjusting hole is provided on the adjusting plate 15. The adjusting rod 16 is arranged in the adjusting hole. An elastic element 17 is provided between the adjusting plate 15 and the fixing plate 14. When the buffer wheel 2 is squeezed, the elastic element 17 is driven to be compressed, thereby reducing the impact received by the buffer wheel 2.

[0036] The adjusting plate 15 is vertically fixedly connected to both the side plate 11 and the bottom plate 12 to improve the overall structural strength of the connecting seat 1 and ensure the stable elastic support of the adjusting rod 16 to the fixed plate 14.

[0037] Preferably, the elastic element 17 is configured as a buffer spring, and the buffer spring is sleeved on the adjusting rod 16. The two ends of the buffer spring are respectively in contact with the adjusting plate 15 and the fixing plate 14 to provide elastic repulsion.

[0038] The end of the adjusting rod 16 away from the fixed plate 14 is threaded with an adjusting nut 19. The adjusting plate 15 is disposed between the adjusting nut 19 and the buffer spring. By rotating the adjusting rod 16 and the adjusting nut 19 relative to each other, the fixed plate 14 and the adjusting plate 15 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the elastic force provided by the buffer spring.

[0039] Similarly, the elastic element 17 is a rubber pad with a fixing hole, and the adjusting rod 16 is disposed in the fixing hole, thereby fixing the rubber pad between the adjusting plate 15 and the fixing plate 14.

[0040] Preferably, a guide rod 18 is vertically arranged on the fixed plate 14, and a guide hole is provided on the adjusting plate 15. The guide rod 18 and the adjusting rod 16 are arranged in parallel, and the guide rod 18 is disposed in the guide hole, thereby stabilizing the linear compression movement of the buffer wheel 2 on the elastic member 17.

[0041] The lower edge of the connecting plate 13 and the upper edge of the side plate 11 are both set as smooth planes extending in a straight line, which facilitates the contact and linear sliding of the two planes and ensures the linear movement of the buffer wheel 2.

[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is illustrative rather than restrictive. Those skilled in the art will understand that many changes, modifications, and even equivalents can be made within the spirit and scope defined by the claims of the present utility model, all of which will fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
