Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: a second support base 2 is fixedly disposed on the first support base 1, and a positioning plate 3 is disposed on the second support base 2; a support assembly is disposed on the inner side of the positioning plate 3, and the support frame assembly and the positioning plate 3 are fixed by two bolts.
[0023] This solution first requires calibrating the distance between the outer side of the support frame base 502 of the support assembly and the positioning plate 3 for the connection between the support assembly and the positioning plate 3. Then, the bottom positioning groove of the support frame base 502 is fixed with two symmetrically arranged bolts. The purpose of calibrating the distance between the outer side of the support frame base 502 and the positioning plate 3 is to ensure welding accuracy. Next, the pin protrusion 503 and the connecting slot 504 at the lower part of the support plate 501 are inserted, and then the support plate 501 and the support frame base 502 are fixed with knob-fixing bolts. By replacing the support plate 501 with different support groove 506 specifications, it is possible to support heat exchanger shells of different diameters.
[0024] The lengths of the pin protrusion 503 and the connecting slot 504 are equal. A strip groove 602 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the pin protrusion 503, and an auxiliary inclined surface 601 is provided on the inner bottom of the strip groove 602. The purpose of the auxiliary inclined surface 601 is to apply a downward force when the fixing bolt is fixed, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the pin protrusion 503 and the connecting slot 504. The pin protrusion 503 and the connecting slot 504 are positioned correspondingly and have the same number of sets, and they are compatible for insertion.
[0025] After the pin protrusion 503 and the connecting slot 504 are adjusted, the fastening threaded post 701 is aligned with the threaded through grooves 505 on both sides of the support frame base 502. Then, the pin protrusion 503 and the connecting slot 504 are fixed by turning the knob of the rotating handle 704 with the handle recess 705. The bottom end of the fastening threaded post 701 is provided with a protruding ball 702, which is adapted to engage with the connecting slot 706. The connecting slot 706 is set in the rubber top 703. The rubber top 703 is made of rubber to increase friction and improve the stability of the connection between the support plate 501 and the support frame base 502. After the support plate 501 and the support frame base 502 are connected, the heat exchanger shell can be placed on the support groove 506 and then positioned and welded. When heat exchanger shells of different diameters are supported by the support assembly, the corresponding diameter support plate 501 can be directly replaced, thereby quickly realizing the processing and welding of the heat exchanger.
[0026] 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.
