During the movement, there is a high probability that the connected natural gas pipeline will be subjected to uneven stress, which may damage the connection point.
[0004] In view of this, this utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a natural gas pipeline centering clamping installation platform includes: a base 20, the base 20 having a rectangular platform surface, a rectangular groove being opened through the center of the top of the base 20, and connecting rods 21 being symmetrically fixedly connected to the front and rear positions of the rectangular groove at the top of the base 20. The connecting rods 21 are rods with an L-shaped cross section. This is existing technology, so it will not be described in detail here.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the split structure is set on the top of the base 20 for fixing the pipe. The split structure includes: base frame 30, side shaft 31 and rotating plate 36. The base frame 30 is symmetrically set on the top of the base 20. The side shaft 31 is symmetrically fixedly connected between the symmetrical base frames 30. The rotating plate 36 is symmetrically set at both ends of the base frame 30. A clamp is installed on the top of the rotating plate 36.
[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the base frame 30 is a rectangular rod, the side shaft 31 is cylindrical, and the rotating plate 36 is a rectangular frame. The side wall of the rotating plate 36 has a rectangular opening, and the wall with the opening is arc-shaped. Each side shaft 31 is inserted into the opening on the side wall of the rotating plate 36. The symmetrical base frame 30 can be snapped onto the symmetrical connecting rod 21. The split structure also includes: a limiting plate 32, a rotating column 33, a movable ring 34, and a plug 35. The limiting plate 32 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the front wall of the base frame 30. The rotating column 33 is rotatably connected between the symmetrical limiting plates 32. The movable rings 34 are symmetrically arranged on the wall of the rotating column 33. The plug 35 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the front and rear walls of each movable ring 34. The limiting plate 32 is rectangular. The rotating plate 33 is composed of a hexagonal column in the middle and cylindrical columns at both ends. The cylindrical arc surface of the rotating plate 33 is threaded. The ring 34 is circular and has threads in its cavity that can fit against the wall of the rotating plate 33. The plug 35 is pin-shaped. The side wall of each limiting plate 32 is respectively provided with slots that can accommodate the ring 34 and the plug 35. The split structure also includes a locking groove 37, which is opened on the arc surface of the rotating plate 36. The locking groove 37 is an isosceles triangular groove. Multiple identical locking grooves 37 are arranged in a ring array on the arc surface of the rotating plate 36. Each locking groove 37 can fit the end of the plug 35 and the end of the plug 35 can be inserted into the locking groove 37.
[0030] In practical use, firstly, the two natural gas pipelines to be connected are fixed using the clamps on the top of the rotating plate 36. Then, the ends of the two pipelines are aligned and connected. If the pipelines to be connected are curved, the rotating column 33 is rotated. When the rotating column 33 rotates, the live ring 34 will move within the groove on the wall of the limiting plate 32 due to the threads on the wall of the rotating column 33. As the symmetrical live ring 34 and plug 35 move towards the other side, the end of the plug 35 will separate from the locking groove 37. At this time, the position of the rotating plate 36 will be unlocked, and the rotating plate 36 can... With the side shaft 31 as the center, the rotating plate 36 is rotated upwards, and the clamp on its top can rotate synchronously when it is rotated. When the clamp on the top of the rotating plate 36 is at the same angle as the natural gas pipeline to be connected, the symmetrical plug 35 is then controlled by rotating the rotating column 33 to lock into the corresponding locking groove 37 on the wall of the rotating plate 36 to fix the angle of the rotating plate 36. After the pipeline connection is completed, the base frame 30 is directly removed from the top of the symmetrical connection rod 21. Then, the connected pipeline can be moved to the required position by holding the base frame 30 for installation. After the pipeline is installed, the base frame 30 can be locked back into the top of the base platform 20.
[0031] In summary, by setting up a split structure, the pipes can be connected without having to remove and install them. This solution uses a detachable base frame 30 to ensure that the assembled pipes do not have uneven stress during movement, which could lead to gaps at the connection point. Furthermore, the rotatable rotating plate 36 can fit the angle of pipes even when they need to be connected.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a fixture strip 38 is fixedly connected to the top cavity of the rotating plate 36. The fixture strip 38 is a rectangular plate and is horizontally placed at the top of the cavity of the rotating plate 36. Each fixture strip 38 has a threaded groove on its top, and the threaded grooves on the top of the fixture strip 38 are distributed in a linear array.
[0033] In practical use, the clamp is installed into the threaded groove at the top of the fixture strip 38 by bolts, thereby realizing the installation of the clamp;
[0034] In summary, by setting multiple threaded holes on the top of the fixture strip 38, it is possible to adapt to fixtures of different sizes, thereby further improving the applicability of this solution.
[0035] Working principle: First, the two natural gas pipelines to be connected are fixed by the clamps on the top of the rotating plate 36. Then, the ends of the two pipelines are aligned and connected. If the pipelines to be connected are curved, the rotating column 33 is rotated. When the rotating column 33 rotates, the live ring 34 will move within the groove on the wall of the limiting plate 32 due to the thread on the wall of the rotating column 33. As the symmetrical live ring 34 and plug 35 move towards the other side of the live ring 34 and plug 35, the end of the plug 35 will separate from the locking groove 37. At this time, the rotating plate 36... The position will be unlocked, and the rotating plate 36 can be moved upward with the side shaft 31 as the center. When the rotating plate 36 is flipped, the clamp on its top can be flipped synchronously. When the clamp on the top of the rotating plate 36 is at the same angle as the natural gas pipeline to be connected, the symmetrical plug 35 is controlled to engage in the corresponding locking groove 37 on the wall of the rotating plate 36 by rotating the rotating column 33 to fix the angle of the rotating plate 36. After the pipeline is connected, the base frame 30 can be directly removed from the top of the symmetrical connection rod 21. Then, the connected pipeline can be moved to the required position for installation by holding the base frame 30.
