Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline installation support technology, and in particular to a BIM-based integrated pipeline support. Background Technology

[0002] Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a building model built upon various relevant information and data of a construction project. Through digital information simulation, it mimics the real-world information of a building. It is an integrated process built upon design, construction, operation coordination, and project information, possessing five key characteristics: visualization, coordination, simulation, optimization, and the ability to generate drawings. By using BIM technology, construction companies can innovate, design, and draw projects with unified information throughout the entire process, and can also achieve better communication through realistic simulation and building visualization.

[0003] Building Information Modeling (BIM)-based pipeline layout is a crucial aspect of modern building design and construction. It utilizes 3D modeling technology to optimize the layout of mechanical, electrical, and piping systems within a building. This approach not only improves design efficiency but also significantly reduces potential problems during the construction phase, such as spatial conflicts and material waste.

[0004] Existing BIM-based pipeline supports typically use clamps to secure pipelines. These clamps are tightened with bolts to secure the pipeline. However, bolt-locking is prone to loosening over time, especially in environments with frequent vibrations (such as industrial plants). Loosening bolts significantly increase the risk of bolt loosening, causing the clamps to fail to effectively hold the pipeline in place, leading to displacement, shaking, and ultimately, damage to the pipeline. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a BIM-based integrated pipeline support system.

[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a BIM-based integrated pipeline support, comprising a support body and a clamping component mounted on the support body. The clamping component includes a first fixed section, a second fixed section, a movable section, and a locking member. One end of the first and second fixed sections is fixedly connected to the support body. One end of the movable section is hinged to the other end of the first fixed section, and the other end of the movable section is hinged to one end of the locking member. A locking connection mechanism is provided between the other end of the locking member and the second fixed section. The locking member is arc-shaped and consists of an outer metal layer and an inner metal layer. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the inner metal layer is greater than that of the outer metal layer.

[0007] Preferably, the locking connection mechanism includes a connecting hole provided on the second fixed section and a hook provided at the end of the locking member and cooperating with the connecting hole.

[0008] Preferably, the support body includes a crossbeam and suspension rods disposed at both ends of the crossbeam, with a fixing plate at the upper end of the suspension rods and a clamping component disposed on the crossbeam.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing plate is provided with bolt holes.

[0010] Preferably, the boom includes an outer tube and a telescopic rod, the telescopic rod being slidably connected in the outer tube, an adjusting screw being connected to the outer tube, and a socket being provided on the telescopic rod to cooperate with the adjusting screw.

[0011] Preferably, the movable segment is arc-shaped.

[0012] Preferably, the first fixed section, the second fixed section, and the movable section are all made of carbon steel.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it can stably clamp and fix pipelines without the problem of loose bolts, providing a more stable fixation effect and effectively preventing pipeline displacement and shaking, thus reducing the probability of pipeline damage. Furthermore, traditional clamp fixing methods often require tightening multiple bolts one by one to ensure pipeline fixation, which is cumbersome during installation; while this utility model uses locking components to clamp and fix pipelines, simplifying operation, greatly improving installation efficiency, and reducing labor and time costs.

[0018] 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. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a BIM-based integrated pipeline support includes a support body and a clamping component mounted on the support body. The clamping component includes a first fixed section 6, a second fixed section 7, a movable section 9, and a locking member 10. One end of the first fixed section 6 and the second fixed section 7 are fixedly connected to the support body. One end of the movable section 9 is hinged to the other end of the first fixed section 6, and the other end of the movable section 9 is hinged to one end of the locking member 10. A locking connection mechanism is provided between the other end of the locking member 10 and the second fixed section 7. The locking member 10 is arc-shaped and consists of an outer metal layer 12 and an inner metal layer 13. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the inner metal layer 13 is greater than that of the outer metal layer 12.

[0020] In this invention, the movable section 9 is arc-shaped. The support body can be fixed at the installation position of the pipeline 15. When the pipeline 15 is fixed, the locking member 10 is in the open state. At this time, the locking member 10 is unlocked from the second fixed section 7, and the pipeline 15 is placed between the first fixed section 6 and the second fixed section 7. Then, the movable section 9 is rotated to cover the pipeline 15. The locking member 10 is heated. Since the coefficient of thermal expansion of the inner metal layer 13 on the locking member 10 is greater than that of the outer metal layer 12, the locking member 10 will heat up as the temperature rises. The thermal expansion of the inner metal layer 13 is greater than that of the outer metal layer 12, which causes the two ends of the locking member 10 to open and the distance between the two ends of the locking member 10 to increase. Then, while it is still hot, one end of the locking member 10 is connected to the second fixed section 7. When the locking member 10 cools down to room temperature, the distance between the two ends of the locking member 10 gradually decreases. When the distance between the two ends of the locking member 10 decreases, the locking member 10 tightens the movable section 9, so that the movable section 9 firmly holds the pipeline 15.

[0021] This invention can stably clamp and fix the pipeline 15 without the problem of loose bolts, providing a stable fixation effect for the pipeline 15 and effectively preventing displacement or shaking, thus reducing the probability of damage to the pipeline 15. Furthermore, traditional clamp fixing methods often require tightening multiple bolts one by one to ensure the pipeline 15 is secured, which is cumbersome during installation. In contrast, this invention uses the locking element 10 to clamp and fix the pipeline 15, simplifying the operation, greatly improving installation efficiency, and reducing labor and time costs.

[0022] In this application, when heating the locking member 10, it can be heated by a flame torch to 300-400 degrees Celsius.

[0023] The locking mechanism includes a connecting hole 8 on the second fixed section 7 and a hook 14 at the end of the locking member 10 that engages with the connecting hole 8. When the end of the locking member 10 is connected to the second fixed section 7, the hook 14 at the end of the locking member 10 engages with the connecting hole 8 on the second fixed section 7, and the hook 14 locks the edge of the connecting hole 8, thereby achieving the connection between the locking member 10 and the second fixed section 7.

[0024] The support structure includes a crossbeam 5 and suspension rods at both ends of the crossbeam 5. A fixing plate 4 is installed at the upper end of each suspension rod, and a clamping component is mounted on the crossbeam 5. Bolt holes are provided on the fixing plate 4. The upper end of the suspension rod can be connected to the building structure via the fixing plate 4, which is connected to the building structure using expansion bolts.

[0025] Furthermore, the hanger includes an outer sleeve 1 and a telescopic rod 2. The telescopic rod 2 is slidably connected to the outer sleeve 1. An adjusting screw 3 is connected to the outer sleeve 1, and the telescopic rod 2 is provided with a socket 11 that mates with the adjusting screw 3. The adjusting screw 3 is inserted into one of the sockets 11 on the telescopic rod 2. The height of the hanger is adjustable, and the installation height of the pipeline 15 can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the hanger.

[0026] In this embodiment, the first fixed section 6, the second fixed section 7, and the movable section 9 are all made of carbon steel.

[0027] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in their shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
