Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline installation technology, specifically to a pipe support with a self-locking mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] During the construction of industrial pipelines, the pipelines need to be supported to prevent large deflection deformation and subsequent rupture. Pipeline supports are typically installed at regular intervals during installation. Common supports are divided into two types: movable supports and fixed supports. Fixed supports are generally used in locations where axial displacement of the pipeline is not permitted. However, in practical applications, considering the changing characteristics of temperature, gravity, and flow field of the medium flowing inside the industrial pipeline, the pipeline itself may experience expansion, contraction, and vibration. Movable supports are more commonly used in daily applications. However, common pipe support devices usually use bolts for fixing, lacking a corresponding self-locking structure. Consequently, after prolonged use, the bolts are prone to loosening due to external factors, leading to pipeline swaying and creating safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0017] 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.

[0018] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a pipe support with a self-locking mechanism, including: a fixed support plate 3, the lower surface of which is fixedly connected to a base plate 1 via a vertical plate 2, and the upper surface of which is fixedly connected to a movable support plate 8 via fastening bolts 6. Limiting rings 5 ​​and fastening layers 4 are fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of both the fixed support plate 3 and the movable support plate 8. Side plates 7 are symmetrically connected to both ends of the fixed support plate 3, and buffer grooves 10 are symmetrically opened within the side plates 7. Through holes are opened on the surface of the buffer grooves 10, and a fixed rod 12 is slidably connected within the through holes. One end of the fixed rod 12 is fixedly connected to a pull plate 11, and the other end is fixedly connected to a fitting block 13. An elastic element is sleeved on the end of the fixed rod 12 near the fitting block 13, and a fitting groove 14 is opened on the end face of the movable support plate 8 corresponding to the position of the fitting block 13.

[0019] In this embodiment, the pipe support is fixedly connected to a suitable position via the base plate 1. The pipe is placed inside the fastening layer 4 of the fixed support plate 3. The movable support plate 8 is then placed on top of the fixed support plate 3, and the positioning block 9 of the movable support plate 8 is embedded in the positioning grooves opened at both ends of the side plates 7 of the fixed support plate 3. Fastening bolts 6 are then passed through the through holes opened at both ends of the movable support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3 and screwed with nuts. This allows the movable support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3 to clamp and fix the pipe under the action of the fastening bolts 6. During the downward movement of the support plate 8, the movable support plate 8 will press the fitting block 13 into the buffer groove 10 through the inclined surface of the fitting block 13. The elastic element in the buffer groove 10 will be compressed. When the movable support plate 8 is attached to the fixed support plate 3, the fitting groove 14 on the end face of the movable support plate 8 is directly opposite the fitting block 13. Then, the fitting block 13 is reset and embedded into the fitting groove 14 under the action of the compressed elastic element, thereby realizing the self-locking of the pipe support after installation, and thus ensuring the safety of pipe installation when the pipe support is used for a long time.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the two sets of side plates 7 fixedly connected to both ends of the fixed support plate 3 are both square in structure, and two sets of buffer grooves 10 are symmetrically opened on the side of the side plate 7 near the fixed support plate 3, and the two sets of buffer grooves 10 are both rectangular in structure.

[0021] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The opening of the buffer groove 10 allows the fixed rod 12, elastic element and fitting block 13 to be stably slidably connected in the side plate 7. The side plate 7 facilitates self-locking when the moving support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3 are closed, enhancing the stability of the pipe support after installation and use.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the interlocking block 13 has a square structure as a whole, the embedded end of the interlocking block 13 has a right trapezoidal structure, the main body of the interlocking block 13 and the buffer groove 10 are matched in size, and the fixing rod 12 fixedly connected to the end face of the main body of the interlocking block 13 has a cylindrical structure.

[0023] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The structural design of the insertion end of the interlocking block 13 can effectively reduce the difficulty of inserting the interlocking block 13 into the interlocking groove 14, thereby effectively enhancing the convenience of self-locking between the moving support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3. At the same time, the size of the main body of the interlocking block 13 and the buffer groove 10 are matched, which can enhance the stability of the interlocking block 13 when it moves and reduce the probability of relative shaking after the moving support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3 achieve self-locking.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the pull plate 11 has a long strip structure, and two sets of fixing rods 12 are fixedly connected to both ends of the pull plate 11. The pull plate 11 and the fixing rods 12 are combined to form a U-shaped structure. At the same time, auxiliary grooves are opened in the middle of the upper and lower surfaces of the pull plate 11, and the bottom of the auxiliary grooves has an arc-shaped structure.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The size of the fixing rod 12 and the through hole are matched, which can help enhance the stability of the fixing rod 12 when it moves. At the same time, the setting of the pull plate 11 can facilitate the worker to quickly release the locking state of the interlocking block 13 on the moving support plate 8, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the pipe support. The opening of the auxiliary groove can reduce the chance of the worker slipping.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment, two sets of positioning grooves are symmetrically opened on the surface of the side plate 7 near the moving support plate 8. Both sets of positioning grooves are rectangular in structure, and the fitting block 13 is located between the two sets of positioning grooves. At the same time, the positions of the two ends of the moving support plate 8 relative to the positioning grooves are connected to the positioning blocks 9, and the dimensions of the positioning blocks 9 and the positioning grooves are compatible.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The dimensions of the positioning groove and the positioning block 9 are matched, which helps to enhance the stability and accuracy of the closing between the moving support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3, and ensures that the fastening bolt 6 can be smoothly fixed to the moving support plate 8 and the fixed support plate 3, so that the fixed support plate 3 and the moving support plate 8 can smoothly clamp and fix the pipeline.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, two sets of limiting rings 5 ​​are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner cavity of the fixed support plate 3 and the movable support plate 8, and all four sets of limiting rings 5 ​​are semi-circular ring structures. A set of fastening layers 4 are fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fixed support plate 3 and the movable support plate 8, and the fastening layers 4 are located between the corresponding two sets of limiting rings 5. At the same time, the ring width of the fastening layer 4 is greater than the ring width of the limiting rings 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 The setting of the limiting ring 5 can help enhance the stability of the connection between the fixed support plate 3 and the moving support plate 8 and the corresponding fastening layer 4. The fastening layer 4 can be made of elastic materials such as soft rubber, thereby enhancing the clamping and fixing effect of the fixed support plate 3 and the moving support plate 8 on the pipeline.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, three sets of upright plates 2 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the lower surface of the fixed support plate 3. The three sets of upright plates 2 are all rectangular in structure, and the lower ends of the three sets of upright plates 2 are fixedly connected to the same set of base plates 1. The base plates 1 are rectangular in structure, and multiple sets of mounting holes are opened at equal intervals on the surface of the base plates 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 The upright plate 2 helps to enhance the stability of the fixed connection between the fixed support plate 3 and the base plate 1. At the same time, the multiple sets of mounting holes on the surface of the base plate 1 facilitate the installation of the tube support.
