During the connection process, corresponding connectors are needed to connect the main rigid frame and the pipes.

[0003] However, the conventional method of using welded connecting plates on the lower flange of rigid frame beams and setting connecting columns at the bottom, or using tie rods to connect the upper and lower flanges of the beam with channel steel, is not convenient for positioning and operation during construction. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a connector that is easy to connect and install.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] 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.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-7 .

[0032] To address the challenges of conventional methods, such as welding connecting plates to the lower flange of a rigid frame beam and installing connecting columns at the bottom, or using tie rods to connect the upper and lower flanges of the beam with channel steel, which are inconvenient for positioning and operation during construction, it is essential to develop an easy-to-connect and install connector. Therefore, this solution provides a connector for connecting pipes to the main rigid frame of a steel structure roof equipment layer. This connector comprises a top plate 1, a fixing plate 7, and a bottom plate 11 for support. The lower end of a fixing cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 7, which in turn moves the fixing plate 7 below the top plate 1 to form a lifting structure. Side guard plates 8 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the fixing plate 7, and a fixing pressure plate 15 for clamping and positioning is located in the middle of the side guard plates 8. An upper buffer pad 16 is located on the inner side of the fixing pressure plate 15, which is positioned above the bottom plate 11, and a lower buffer pad 13 is located at the upper end of the bottom plate 11.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the top plate 1 is fixed to the main frame by studs and nuts or by welding. The lower end of the top plate 1 is provided with nested fixing rods 2 and fixing cylinders 4. By pulling the fixing cylinder 4, the fixing cylinder 4 slides up and down on the outside of the fixing rod 2, thereby adjusting the height of the fixing plate 7 and thus adjusting the installation height of the pipe. When the appropriate height is adjusted, the support rod 5 is inserted through the upper end of the fixing cylinder 4. At the same time, the support rod 5 is inserted into the fixing hole 3 at the corresponding position, which can limit the movement between the fixing cylinder 4 and the fixing rod 2. Then, the connecting cap 6 threaded to the outer surface of the support rod 5 is rotated so that the connecting cap 6 fits against the upper end of the fixing cylinder 4, limiting the movement of the support rod 5.

[0034] A fixing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support rod 5. Protrusions 9 are fixedly connected to both ends of the fixing plate 7. Side guard plates 8 are respectively snapped onto the left and right ends of the fixing plate 7. Simultaneously, the upper end of the side guard plate 8 is snapped into the protrusions 9, thus positioning the side guard plate 8 and the fixing plate 7. Then, the positioning screw 10 is rotated to limit the movement between the side guard plate 8 and the fixing plate 7. Next, the base plate 11 is fixed to the lower end of the side guard plate 8 using fastening bolts 12. Then, the pipe is inserted into the connecting frame formed by the fixing plate 7, side guard plate 8, and base plate 11. The lower end of the pipe rests on the lower buffer pad 13 on the upper end of the base plate 11. Slide the mounting rod 17 into the connecting groove 14 from the opening at the upper end of the connecting groove 14. By pulling the mounting rod 17 up and down, the mounting rod 17 slides up and down in the connecting groove 14. The mounting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the fixed pressure plate 15, thereby driving the fixed pressure plate 15 to move downward to press and position the pipeline, thereby improving the stability of the pipeline during installation. Then, rotate the mounting bolt 18 to limit the distance between the mounting rod 17 and the side guard plate 8. In addition, the upper and lower ends of the pipeline are in contact with the upper buffer pad 16 and the lower buffer pad 13, respectively, which can play a certain role in shock absorption and protect the pipeline.

[0035] 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.
