Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline installation, specifically an auxiliary structure for connecting underground pipeline installation. Background Technology

[0002] Underground pipe networks are an important urban infrastructure, undertaking functions such as water supply, drainage, heating, gas supply, power supply, and communication. Currently, some pipe networks suffer from problems such as lagging construction and insufficient management and coordination. The application of new detection technologies, such as unmanned underwater vehicles, has improved the efficiency of pipe network maintenance. However, underground pipe networks require auxiliary devices for connection during their deployment.

[0003] For example, the pipeline interface docking auxiliary device for underground pipeline construction described in (authorization announcement number CN222831777U) includes a base. The upper side of the base is connected to a lifting platform through a lifting mechanism. Two sets of pipeline positioning devices are symmetrically installed on the top surface of the lifting platform. Each set of pipeline positioning devices includes two clamp-type clamps with the same structure. The clamp-type clamps have a limiting hole in the middle that matches the size of the pipeline. The four clamp-type clamps of the two sets of pipeline positioning devices are arranged parallel to each other and the limiting holes are arranged coaxially. In each pipeline positioning device, one clamp-type clamp is a fixed clamp and the other is a movable clamp.

[0004] The aforementioned device, through the linkage of the locking device, moves the two lower fixing clamps in the middle, simultaneously driving the pipes on both sides to move towards the middle, facilitating pipe docking. However, the aforementioned device lacks a three-in-one structure of "clamping-cleaning-leveling," failing to solve the industry's chronic problems of fragmented cleaning processes, easy positioning failures, and uncontrollable quality in traditional pipe network docking. This leads to the aforementioned device forcing the pipes to move due to unevenness, causing positioning offset, which in turn leads to stress concentration, which accelerates interface failure.

The drive motor 14 is activated. After the movement, the positive and negative threaded rod 15 can be rotated. When the positive and negative threaded rod 15 rotates, it can drive the clamping seat 16 and its upper components to move back and forth. The positive and negative threaded rod 15 is rotatably connected to the left end of the base 11 through the slide groove 12. The rear end of the positive and negative threaded rod 15 is fixedly connected to the front drive shaft of the drive motor 14. The lower end of the clamping seat 16 is slidably connected to the base 11 through the slide groove 12. The lower right side of the clamping seat 16 is slidably connected to the slide rod 13. The first threaded groove 17 is provided on the lower left side of the clamping seat 16. The lower left side of the clamping seat 16 is threadedly connected to the positive and negative threaded rod 15 through the first threaded groove 17.

[0026] The clamping assembly 2 has a slide rail 21 fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the upper end of the base 11, a track wheel 22 slidably connected to the slide rail 21 at its lower end, a movable frame 23 rotatably connected to the track wheel 22 at its lower end, a first electric push rod 24 fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the upper end of the movable frame 23, and the first electric push rod 24 can drive the clamping block 27 to move up and down after it is started, a second threaded groove 25 is provided on the left and right sides of the lower end of the movable frame 23, and a screw 26 is threadedly connected to the clamping seat 16 and the movable frame 23 through the second threaded groove 25, the upper end of the clamping block 27 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod at the lower end of the first electric push rod 24, and the second threaded groove 25 is provided on the left and right ends of the clamping seat 16.

[0027] Adjustment component 3, adjustment frame 31 is fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the lower end of base 11, second electric push rod 32 is fixedly connected to the hollow groove in the middle of adjustment frame 31. After the second electric push rod 32 is started, it can drive ball head 33 and its lower components to move up and down. Ball head 33 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod at the lower end of second electric push rod 32. The upper end of ball seat 34 is rotatably connected to ball head 33. Rotating plate 35 is fixedly connected to the lower end of ball seat 34. Tilt sensor 36 is fixedly connected to the front end of base 11.

[0028] This utility model provides an improved auxiliary structure for the installation and docking of underground pipelines, the working principle of which is as follows:

[0029] First, when using this device, place it in the work area and then connect it to an external power source to provide the necessary electrical energy for its operation.

[0030] Secondly, when this device is needed, it can be placed in the designated position first, and then the tilt sensor 36 can be activated by the display controller 43. After the tilt sensor 36 is activated, the tilt angle of the device can be detected and the detected tilt data can be sent to the display controller 43 for processing via a data cable. The display controller 43 can then control the second electric push rod 32 to be activated based on the tilt data. After the second electric push rod 32 is activated, it can drive the ball head 33 and its lower components to move up and down to the designated position. At the same time, when the rotating plate 35 contacts the uneven ground, the ball seat 34 and the rotating plate 35 can rotate around the ball head 33 as the center to keep the device in a horizontal state and avoid device displacement. This avoids the vicious cycle of pipe movement → positioning displacement → displacement leading to stress concentration → stress accelerating interface failure. Then, the pipe fittings to be connected are placed on the upper ends of the two sets of clamping seats 16. Then, the first electric push rod 24 is started. After the first electric push rod 24 is started, it can drive the clamping block 27 to move downward so that the clamping block 27 contacts the pipe fitting for clamping. Then, the drive motor 14 is started to drive the positive and negative threaded rod 15 to rotate. When the positive and negative threaded rod 15 rotates, it can drive the clamping seat 16 and its upper components to move back and forth to adjust the position of the pipe fitting. At the same time, when the clamping seat 16 moves, it can drive the moving frame 23 to move back and forth so that the track wheel 22 rotates along the slide rail 21 to move to the designated position. When it is necessary to disassemble and assemble the moving frame 23 and its upper components, the screw 26 can be rotated to separate the screw 26 from the moving frame 23 and the clamping seat 16. Then, the moving frame 23 is pulled to separate the moving frame 23 from the clamping seat 16 to complete the disassembly.

After the water pump 44 starts, it can pump water from the water tank 42 through the water supply pipe 45 and deliver it to the atomizing nozzle ring 46 for atomization and spraying to clean the pipes to be connected. The lower end of the water supply pipe 45 is fixedly connected to the water pump 44 and the water tank 42. The lower end of the atomizing nozzle ring 46 is fixedly connected to the clamping seat 16, the upper end of the atomizing nozzle ring 46 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the clamping block 27, and the left end of the atomizing nozzle ring 46 is fixedly connected to the water supply pipe 45.

[0033] In this embodiment:

[0034] When pipe fittings need to be cleaned, the water pump 44 can be started by the display controller 43. After the water pump 44 is started, the water in the water tank 42 can be drawn out through the water pipe 45, and the water pump 44 can deliver the water to the atomizing nozzle ring 46 for atomization and spraying to clean and rinse the pipe fitting interface that needs to be connected, thereby reducing the risk of interface failure caused by impurities at the pipe fitting interface.

By setting up a three-in-one structure of "clamping-cleaning-leveling", it solves the industry's chronic problems of fragmented cleaning process, easy positioning failure, and uncontrollable quality in traditional pipeline docking.
