Existing clamps cannot rotate the pipe, resulting in low welding efficiency.

[0021] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further scheme is that the six rotating wheels are arranged in a three-point configuration to contact the outside of the pipe and provide support for the pipe.

[0022] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism is located below the support mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes a motor, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the platform. A pulley is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. One of the pulleys, which is rotatably connected to the third support rod, has a groove on its outer side.

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.

[0030] In the embodiments, by Figure 1-4 The present invention provides a clamp for welding pipes, comprising a platform 1, an adjustment mechanism 2 extending to the top of the platform 1, a fixing mechanism 3 located on one side of the adjustment mechanism 2 fixedly connected to the top of the platform 1, a support mechanism 4 located between the fixing mechanism 3 and the adjustment mechanism 2 fixedly connected to the top of the platform 1, and a transmission mechanism 5 connected to the support mechanism 4 at the bottom of the platform 1.

[0031] The top of the adjusting mechanism 2 and the supporting mechanism 4, and the bottom of the fixing mechanism 3 are all fixedly connected with a rotating wheel 6;

[0032] The adjustment mechanism 2 includes a lead screw 201, which is rotatably connected to the inside of the platform 1. One end of the lead screw 201 is fixedly connected to a control panel 202 located on the outside of the platform 1. A screw tube 203 is threadedly connected to the outside of the lead screw 201. A slide plate 204 that is slidably connected to the platform 1 and located above the platform 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate 204. Two first support rods 205, which are symmetrically distributed front and back, are fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate 204. Two rotating wheels 6 are rotatably connected to the two first support rods 205 respectively.

[0033] The fixing mechanism 3 includes two sleeves 301, both of which are fixedly connected to the top of the platform 1 and are symmetrically distributed front and back. The interior of each sleeve 301 is slidably connected to a slide rod 302. The bottom of each slide rod 302 is fixedly connected to a spring plate 303. The top of each spring plate 303 and the inner wall of the sleeve 301 on the same side are both fixedly connected to a spring 304 located outside the slide rod 302 on the same side. The top of each slide rod 302 is fixedly connected to the same parallel plate 305 located above the sleeve 301. One side of the parallel plate 305 is fixedly connected to two mounting plates 306 located above the two lower rotating wheels 6. The bottom of each mounting plate 306 is fixedly connected to a second support rod 307, which is symmetrically distributed front and back. The two rotating wheels 6 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the two second support rods 307 respectively.

[0034] The bottom of the platform 1 is fixedly connected with four support legs 7 arranged in a rectangular array, and the inside of the platform 1 is provided with through holes 8 that are compatible with the transmission mechanism 5.

[0035] The pre-set perforation 8 facilitates belt drive of 504 stainless steel;

[0036] The left side of each of the two sleeves 301 is fixedly connected to the top of the platform 1 with a reinforcing rib 9, and the inside of each of the two sleeves 301 is fixedly connected to an anti-deviation tube 10 that is slidably connected to the outside of the slide rod 302 on the same side.

[0037] Reinforcing rib 9 can improve the structural connection strength;

[0038] The parallel plate 305 is trapezoidal, the tops of the two mounting plates 306 are arc-shaped, and the two mounting plates 306 are fixedly connected by the same tie rod 11.

[0039] Pull rod 11 can raise the grip position, making it easier to lift the parallel plate 305;

[0040] The support mechanism 4 includes two third support rods 401. Both third support rods 401 are fixedly connected to the top of the platform 1 and are symmetrically distributed front and back. Two rotating wheels 6 are rotatably connected to the top of the two third support rods 401. There are a total of six rotating wheels 6, with the two upper rotating wheels 6 located between the four lower rotating wheels 6.

[0041] The six rotating wheels are arranged in a three-point configuration to contact the outside of the pipe and provide support for the pipe.

[0042] The transmission mechanism 5 is located below the support mechanism 4. The transmission mechanism 5 includes a motor 501, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the platform 1. The output end of the motor 501 is fixedly connected to a pulley 502. One of the rotating wheels 6, which is rotatably connected to the third support rod 401, has a groove 503 on its outer side. The groove 503 and the pulley 502 are connected by the same belt 504.

[0043] Belt drives provide smooth transmission and are less prone to shaking, maintaining welding stability while driving the pipeline to rotate.

[0044] Working principle:

[0045] Step 1: Pull up the mounting plate 306 by pulling the lever 11, place the pipe on top of the four rollers 6 below, and when the lever 11 is released, the spring plate 303 is pushed by the spring 304, causing the slide bar 302 to slide down, so that the rollers 6 above press down on the pipe.

[0046] Step 2: When welding the pipe, start the motor 501. The motor 501 drives the belt 504 through the pulley 502 and the groove 503 to drive one of the rotating wheels 6 that is rotatably connected to the third support rod 401 to rotate, thereby driving the pipe to rotate. Since there is a welding point between the two pipe sections, both pipe sections will rotate, which makes it easy to perform circumferential welding on the pipe.

[0047] Step 3: When encountering pipes with different diameters, the control panel 202 can be rotated to drive the lead screw 201 to rotate, thereby driving the slide plate 204 to move through the solenoid 203. This will cause the two rotating wheels 6, which are rotatably connected to the first support rod 205, to move closer to or further away from the third support rod 401, thereby adjusting the placement spacing to suit the current welded pipe.
