Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pipeline welding technology and relates to a positioning device for weld repair. Background Technology

[0002] Welding is a manufacturing process that uses heat, pressure, or both to achieve atomic or molecular bonding at the joint of two or more metals or thermoplastic materials. Its core principle is to use a heat source (such as an electric arc, flame, or laser) or mechanical pressure to locally melt or plasticize the materials, forming a permanent bond upon cooling. Common welding methods include arc welding, gas welding, laser welding, and friction welding, and are widely used in machinery manufacturing, construction engineering, aerospace, and the automotive industry. It is a key technology for achieving efficient material bonding and structural integration.

[0003] The key to welding lies in the precise control of energy input and material fusion process. Temperature, time, and protective measures (such as inert gas isolation) must be taken into account to avoid oxidation or defects. Modern welding technology not only focuses on the joint strength, but also needs to solve problems such as performance degradation in the heat-affected zone, residual stress, and deformation. With the development of automation and intelligence, the application of robotic welding, digital control, and real-time monitoring technologies has significantly improved welding accuracy and quality, and promoted the evolution of welding from traditional processes to advanced manufacturing technologies with high precision and high efficiency.

[0004] In the field of pipeline welding repair, weld repair positioning devices are key equipment to ensure accurate weld repair. Traditional positioning devices mostly use fixed clamps or single-size clamps, which are only suitable for pipes of specific diameters and have obvious limitations. For repair operations of different pipe diameters, it is necessary to frequently change clamps or manually adjust positioning components, resulting in low operating efficiency and difficulty in ensuring positioning accuracy.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, a positioning device for weld repair includes a base 101. A rotating frame 102 is symmetrically arranged on the upper end of the base 101. A rotating ring 103 is arranged on the inner side of the rotating frame 102. Limiting blocks 104 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating ring 103. The limiting blocks 104 are located inside the rotating frame 102 and rotatably connected to it. Because the rotating ring 103 is located inside the rotating frame 102, the rotating frame 102 limits the rotation of the rotating ring 103 through the limiting blocks 104, thus making the rotation of the rotating ring 103 more stable. Multiple sets of rotating rings are rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating frame 102. A rod 105 is fixedly connected to a plurality of fixed rods 106 on the outer side of the rotating rod 105 and on the inner side of the rotating frame 102. A pressing block 107 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed rod 106 away from the rotating rod 105. A gear ring a108 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rotating ring 103. A plurality of sawtooth groups 109 are fixedly connected to the end of the fixed rod 106 away from the pressing block 107. The sawtooth groups 109 are meshed with the gear ring a108. A support assembly is provided between the rotating frame 102 and the base 101. A drive assembly is provided on the inner side of the rotating frame 102. A rotating assembly is provided on the inner side of the base 101.

[0029] The drive assembly includes a servo motor a201. The servo motor a201 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rotating frame 102. The output end of the servo motor a201 is fixedly connected to a drive rod 202. The outer side of the drive rod 202 is fixedly connected to a gear a203. The outer side of the rotating ring 103 is fixedly connected to a gear ring b204. The gear ring b204 meshes with the gear a203.

[0030] The outer side of the extrusion block 107 is provided with an anti-slip groove 601, which increases the friction between the device and the pipe.

[0031] During operation, the servo motor a201 is started, causing the output end of the servo motor a201 to drive the drive rod 202 to rotate. When the drive rod 202 rotates, it meshes with the gear ring b204 through the gear a203, thereby driving the rotating ring 103 to rotate. The rotating ring 103 meshes with the sawtooth group 109 through the gear ring a108, causing multiple sets of fixed rods 106 to rotate synchronously around the rotating rod 105 as the axis. This allows the device to clamp pipes of various diameters and ensures that the clamped position of the pipe is at the center of the rotating frame 102, thereby reducing the frequency of clamp changes by the operator and improving operating efficiency and positioning accuracy.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] like Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, the support assembly includes a fixing ring 301. The fixing ring 301 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the middle part of the rotating frame 102. A limiting ring 302 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing ring 301. A limiting groove 303 is formed on the inner side of the base 101. The limiting ring 302 is located inside the limiting groove 303 and is rotatably connected to the limiting groove 303.

[0034] The rotating assembly includes a gear ring c401. The gear ring c401 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer side of the limiting ring 302. A synchronizing rod 402 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the base 101. Gears b403 are fixedly connected to both ends of the synchronizing rod 402. The gears b403 mesh with the gear ring c401. A driving mechanism is provided on the inner side of the base 101.

[0035] The drive mechanism includes a servo motor b501, which is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner side of the base 101. A gear c502 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor b501, and a gear d503 is fixedly connected to the middle of the synchronizing rod 402. The gear d503 meshes with the gear c502.

[0036] During operation, the servo motor b501 is started, causing its output to drive gear c502 to rotate. Gear c502 meshes with gear d503, thereby driving the synchronizing rod 402 to rotate. The synchronizing rod 402 meshes with gear ring c401 through gears b403 at both ends, thus driving the limiting ring 302 to rotate. The limiting ring 302 is limited by the fixing ring 301, making its rotation more stable. At the same time, when the limiting ring 302 rotates, the fixing ring 301 drives the rotating frame 102 to rotate, causing the two sets of rotating frames 102 to drive the pipe to rotate synchronously. This allows the workers to drive the two sets of pipes to rotate synchronously when welding, thereby eliminating pipe misalignment or angular deviation caused by manual segmentation adjustment, and improving the concentricity and bevel alignment accuracy of the joint.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. The present utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
