Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline production equipment technology, specifically a self-aligning assembly structure for a plastic plug and a pipeline. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of industrial production and pipeline installation and maintenance, the assembly of plastic plugs with pipes is a common and important task.
[0003] Traditional methods of assembling plastic plugs with pipes mostly rely on manual operation. Workers need to rely on experience and feel to align the plug with the pipe opening for installation. This method is not only inefficient, but also difficult to guarantee assembly accuracy. Problems such as misalignment between the plug and the pipe and loose connection are prone to occur, resulting in poor pipe sealing and potentially causing media leakage and other safety hazards, affecting the normal operation of the entire system. With the development of automation technology, some simple assembly aids have appeared on the market. However, these tools are often single-function and can only reduce the labor intensity of workers to a certain extent. They cannot achieve self-alignment assembly of plastic plugs and pipes. Their applicability to plugs and pipes of different sizes is also poor, making it difficult to meet the increasingly diversified production needs. Therefore, we propose a self-alignment assembly structure for plastic plugs and pipes. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a self-aligning assembly structure for a plastic plug and a pipe, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A self-aligning assembly structure for a plastic plug and a pipe includes a base, an internal groove in which a slider is slidably disposed, a mounting shell fixedly mounted on the top of the slider, a rack fixedly mounted on the top of the base at the front and rear sides of the mounting shell, a mounting shaft rotatably disposed inside the mounting shell, a gear connected to the mounting shaft above the rack via a key, the gear meshing with the rack, a first bevel gear connected to the mounting shaft via a key, a mounting disc rotatably disposed on the other side wall of the mounting shell via a bearing, a second bevel gear connected to the rotating shaft of the mounting disc inside the mounting shell via a key, the second bevel gear meshing with the first bevel gear, and a clamp fixedly mounted on the other side wall of the mounting disc.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a threaded rod is also provided in the slide groove through a bearing, the threaded rod passing through the slider and being threadedly connected to the slider.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a cavity is provided on the other side of the top of the base, in which several hydraulic cylinders are uniformly fixedly installed. A lifting plate is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic arm of the hydraulic cylinder. Several mounting frames are uniformly fixedly installed on the top of the lifting plate. Several electric push rods are uniformly arranged inside the mounting frames. A clamping plate is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic arm of the electric push rod.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: a drive motor is also fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the base, and the power output shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the threaded rod through a coupling.
[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, a rubber pad is also provided on the inner wall of the clamping plate.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] 1. This structure drives the threaded rod to rotate via a drive motor, causing the slider to move in the groove. At the same time, the meshing of gears and racks and the transmission of bevel gears drive the clamp to rotate. Simultaneously, the height of the clamped pipe is adjusted by a hydraulic cylinder, thereby achieving self-alignment assembly of the plastic plug and the pipe. This greatly improves assembly efficiency and accuracy, avoids problems such as inaccurate alignment and loose connection that may occur in manual assembly, and effectively improves product quality and production efficiency.
[0013] 2. The clamp can hold and fix plastic plugs of different sizes. The electric push rod drives the clamping plate to clamp pipes of different sizes. The rubber pad on the inner wall of the clamping plate increases the friction and ensures the quality of clamping and fixing. This makes the device widely applicable, able to meet diverse production needs and reduce production costs. Attached Figure Description

Any obvious modifications or alterations made to this utility model do not depart from its spirit and scope.
[0020] Example
[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment of the utility model, a self-aligning assembly structure for a plastic plug and a pipe includes a base 1, a sliding groove inside the base 1, a slider 2 slidably disposed in the sliding groove, an mounting shell 4 fixedly installed on the top of the slider 2, and a threaded rod 3 rotatably disposed in the sliding groove through a bearing. The threaded rod 3 passes through the slider 2 and is threadedly connected to the slider 2. At this time, rotating the threaded rod 3 can drive the slider 2 to move on the base 1.
[0022] A rack 5 is fixedly mounted on the top of the base 1, located on the front and rear sides of the mounting shell 4. A mounting shaft 6 is rotatably mounted inside the mounting shell 4. A gear 11 is connected to the mounting shaft 6 above the rack 5 via a key. The gear 11 meshes with the rack 5. When the slider 2 moves, the gear 11 and rack 5 drive the mounting shaft 6 to rotate. A first bevel gear 7 is also connected to the mounting shaft 6 via a key. A mounting disc 9 is rotatably mounted on the other side wall of the mounting shell 4 via a bearing. A second bevel gear 8 is connected to the rotating shaft of the mounting disc 9 inside the mounting shell 4 via a key. The second bevel gear 8 meshes with the first bevel gear 7. When the mounting shaft 6 is moved by the gear 11 and rack 5... When rotating downwards, the first bevel gear 7 and the second bevel gear 8 will drive the mounting plate 9 to rotate. A clamp 10 is fixedly installed on the other side wall of the mounting plate 9. Under the action of the clamp 10, not only can the plastic plug be clamped and fixed, but it can also meet the clamping and fixing of plastic plugs of different sizes, thereby improving the applicability of the device to a certain extent. At the same time, under the action of the rotating mounting plate 9, the clamp 10 will be driven to rotate, thereby driving the plastic plug to rotate, thus better connecting the plastic plug to the pipe. A drive motor 15 is also fixedly installed on one side outer wall of the base 1. The power output shaft of the drive motor 15 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 3 through a coupling.
[0023] A cavity is provided on the other side of the top of the base 1. Several hydraulic cylinders 12 are uniformly fixedly installed in the cavity. A lifting plate 13 is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic arm of the hydraulic cylinder 12. Several mounting brackets 14 are uniformly fixedly installed on the top of the lifting plate 13. Several electric push rods 16 are uniformly arranged inside the mounting brackets 14. A clamping plate 17 is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic arm of the electric push rod 16. Under the action of the clamping plate 17, the pipe can be clamped and fixed. At the same time, it can also meet the clamping and fixing of pipes of different sizes, which improves the applicability of the device to a certain extent. A rubber pad is also provided on the inner wall of the clamping plate 17. Under the action of the rubber pad, the friction between the clamping plate 17 and the pipe is increased, thereby ensuring the clamping and fixing quality of the pipe by the clamping plate 17, and thus ensuring the connection quality between the plastic plug and the pipe.
[0024] In actual use, the drive motor 15 starts, and its power output shaft drives the threaded rod 3 to rotate in the groove of the base 1 through the coupling. Since the slider 2 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 3 and is slidably set in the groove, the rotation of the threaded rod 3 will drive the slider 2 to move, thereby causing the mounting shell 4 fixed on the top of the slider 2 to move synchronously. The top of the base 1 is provided with racks 5 on the front and rear sides of the mounting shell 4. The mounting shaft 6 inside the mounting shell 4 is equipped with gears 11 that mesh with the racks 5. When the mounting shell 4 moves, the gears 11 roll along the racks 5, driving the mounting shaft 6 to rotate. The first bevel gear 7 on the mounting shaft 6 rotates accordingly, and the second bevel gear 8 that meshes with the first bevel gear 7 also rotates. The second bevel gear 8 drives the mounting plate 9 to rotate through the rotating shaft of the mounting plate 9, thereby causing the clamp 10 on the mounting plate 9 to rotate. The clamp 10 can clamp plastic plugs of different sizes and drive them to rotate, which is convenient for connecting to pipes. In the cavity on the other side of the top of the base 1, the ends of the telescopic arms of several hydraulic cylinders 12 are fixed with lifting plates 13. The height of the lifting plate 13 can be adjusted by controlling the hydraulic cylinder 12, allowing the plug to be better aligned with the pipe. An electric push rod 16 is installed inside the mounting bracket 14 at the top of the lifting plate 13. The clamping plate 17 at the end of the telescopic arm of the electric push rod 16 can clamp pipes of different sizes. The rubber pad on the inner wall of the clamping plate 17 increases the friction between the clamping plate and the pipe, ensuring the quality of the clamping and fixing, thereby guaranteeing the quality of the subsequent connection between the plastic plug and the pipe.
