Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline construction technology, and in particular to a pipeline docking and positioning device. Background Technology
[0002] In urban water supply and drainage or energy transmission projects, the laying of pipeline systems is a crucial step. PCCPCD-C pipe (prestressed concrete cylinder pipe), as a high-performance pipeline material, is widely used in various engineering scenarios due to its high strength, corrosion resistance, and good sealing performance. It can withstand large pressure and external loads, ensuring that the pipeline system can still operate stably under complex geological conditions and harsh environments, thus guaranteeing the safety and durability of the project.
[0003] Accurate pipeline laying is the foundation of the entire project, and the connection of PCCPCD-C pipes is a key step in the laying process, the quality of which directly affects the overall performance of the pipeline system.
[0004] The existing PCCPCD-C pipe connection method still relies on manual visual inspection. Workers place the PCCPCD-C pipe on a flat surface for connection. They manually inspect the connection position and repeatedly move the pipe to try to align the two ends to avoid water or air leakage caused by pipe connection deviation. However, since it relies entirely on manual labor, the labor intensity is high, the connection efficiency is low, manual movement and adjustment are difficult to be precise, and there may be shaking during connection, making it difficult to achieve a relatively accurate position adjustment effect. In view of the above defects, this application is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pipe docking and positioning device, which solves the problems of high labor intensity and difficulty in ensuring accuracy caused by the current reliance on manual relocation and positioning for pipe docking.
[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a pipe docking and positioning device, comprising two base plates. One base plate has a placement plate fixedly connected to its top. The top of the placement plate has an arc-shaped groove, and fastening grooves are formed on its front, rear, left, and right sides. Fastening bolts are installed inside each of the fastening grooves, and the ends of each fastening bolt are connected to a rotating body, which can be a bearing. The fastening bolts are connected to a pressure plate, and the distance between the pressure plate and the arc-shaped groove is adjusted by rotating the fastening bolts. The pressure plate is used to fix the pipe. The other base plate has a fine-tuning mechanism on its top, used to adjust the position of the pipe docking end. The fine-tuning mechanism includes a second placement plate, the top of which has an arc-shaped groove. The second placement plate is movably mounted on the base plate.
[0007] According to one embodiment of the present utility model, the bottom of the second placement plate is connected to a T-shaped slide rail, and the top of the base plate that cooperates with the second placement plate is provided with a T-shaped slide groove, and the T-shaped slide rail is installed in the T-shaped slide groove.
[0008] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a fixing bolt is installed on the second placement plate, which is used to fix the second placement plate to the base plate to ensure stability during docking.
[0009] According to one embodiment of the present utility model, the fixing bolt is threadedly connected to a tension plate, and a transverse groove is provided on the top of the base plate that cooperates with the placement plate two. The end of the fixing bolt extends into the interior of the transverse groove, and the tension plate is transversely engaged in the interior of the transverse groove, and the tension plate can move along the transverse groove.
[0010] According to one embodiment of the present invention, both base plates are provided with a plurality of nail holes for driving nails in to fix the base plates.
[0011] According to one embodiment of the present invention, anti-slip strips are provided on the bottom of both base plates. The anti-slip strips adopt an S-shaped design. The anti-slip strips can be integrally formed with the base plates, or they can be assembled on the base plates by welding, bolting or other methods.
[0012] According to one embodiment of the present invention, both base plates are connected to handles to facilitate the removal of the base plates.
[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a scale is connected to the base plate that cooperates with the second placement plate. The scale is arranged along the movable direction of the second placement plate, and the surface of the scale is coated with fluorescent paint.
[0014] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the fixing bolt is connected to a pressure disc, and the second placement plate is provided with a disc groove for accommodating the pressure disc.
[0015] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the pressure plate has an arc-shaped structure, and at least two sets of pressure plates are provided.
[0016] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the inner walls of both the first arc groove and the second arc groove are provided with rubber pads.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By supporting the pipe through the arc-shaped groove at the top of the first placement plate, and rotating the fastening bolt to push the rotating slider, the pressure plate presses the pipe tightly. This provides stable support and precise positioning for the pipe during PCCPCD-C pipe docking, effectively preventing docking wobbling, significantly improving docking accuracy and quality, and ensuring the smooth progress of subsequent pipeline laying projects. Furthermore, the T-shaped slide rail of the second placement plate, in conjunction with the T-shaped slide groove on the right-side base plate, allows for precise adjustment of the pipe position during PCCPCD-C pipe docking, further improving docking accuracy and quality.

[0026] The following description is only intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The embodiments in the following description are merely examples, and those skilled in the art will conceive of other obvious modifications. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
[0027] A pipe docking and positioning device, such as Figure 1The device includes two base plates 1. A placement plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the left base plate 1. An arc-shaped groove 4 is opened on the top of the placement plate 3. Fastening grooves 5 are opened on the front, back, left and right ends of the top of the placement plate 3. Fastening bolts 6 are installed inside the multiple fastening grooves 5. Rotating bodies 7 are rotatably connected to the ends of the multiple fastening bolts 6. The rotating bodies 7 can be bearings installed in the base plate 1, or bearings can be installed in the rotating bodies 7 and connected to the bottom ends of the fastening bolts 6. Pressure plates 8 are threadedly connected to the outside of the two fastening bolts 6 on the left end and the two fastening bolts 6 on the right end. A fine-tuning mechanism 2 is set on the top of the right base plate 1. The fine-tuning mechanism 2 is used to finely adjust the angle between the end and the top of the pipe to be connected.
[0028] Specifically, the placement plate 3 serves a supporting and positioning function. The arc-shaped groove 4 on its top is preferably adapted to the outline of the PCCPCD-C pipe, supporting the pipe and initially stabilizing it during placement. Multiple fastening grooves 5 on the front, back, left, and right ends of the top of the placement plate 3, along with matching fastening bolts 6 and rotating bodies 7, constitute a precise adjustment and fixing system. When the PCCPCD-C pipe needs to be fixed, rotating the fastening bolts 6 moves the pressure plate 8 towards the pipe, gradually approaching and pressing the PCCPCD-C pipe. The clamping portion of the pressure plate 8 preferably adopts an arc-shaped structure and is equipped with rubber pads. In other embodiments, the clamping portion of the pressure plate 8 can adopt a flexible structure, such as a chain or rope, using evenly distributed fastening bolts... Bolt 6 and pressure plate 8 provide a stable clamping force for the pipe, ensuring that the pipe will not easily shift in either the horizontal or vertical direction. When connecting two PCCPCD-C pipes, first place one of the pipes to be connected on the arc-shaped groove 4 of the left placement plate 3 and secure it firmly using the aforementioned fastening system. Then, through precise measurement and adjustment, move the other PCCPCD-C pipe to the connection position. During the connection process, since the first pipe has been firmly fixed to the device, there will be no shaking, providing a stable reference for the connection. This effectively avoids shaking between the two PCCPCD-C pipes during connection, greatly improving the accuracy and quality of the connection and laying a solid foundation for the smooth progress of subsequent pipeline laying projects.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The fine-tuning mechanism 2 includes a second placement plate 201. The top of the second placement plate 201 has an arc-shaped groove 202. The bottom left and right sides of the second placement plate 201 are fixedly connected to T-shaped slide rails 203. The top left and right sides of the right base plate 1 have T-shaped slide grooves 204. The second placement plate 201 is slidably connected to the two T-shaped slide rails 203 in the two T-shaped slide grooves 204. The top front and rear sides of the second placement plate 201 are connected to fixing bolts 205. The lower part of the outer wall of the two fixing bolts 205 is threaded with tension plates 206. The top center of the right base plate 1 has a transverse groove 207. The ends of the two fixing bolts 205 pass through the transverse groove 207. The two tension plates 206 are transversely engaged in the center of the transverse groove 207. The tension plates 206 can move along the transverse groove 207.
[0030] Specifically, the arc-shaped groove 202 is used to place the end of another PCCPCD-C pipe to be connected. The T-shaped slide rails 203 on the left and right sides of the bottom of the placement plate 201 cooperate with the T-shaped slide groove 204 on the top of the right base plate 1, so that the placement plate 201 can slide freely in the front and back direction. This creates conditions for the initial adjustment of the pipe position. When it is necessary to make a fine adjustment to the angle between the end and the top of the pipe, loosen the fixing bolts 205 and move the placement plate 201 along the T-shaped slide groove 204, thereby realizing the precise adjustment of the angle between the pipe placed on it and the other end of the pipe.
[0031] When performing PCCPCD-C pipe docking, firstly, place the end of one pipe on the arc-shaped groove 4 of the left placement plate 3 and secure it with two pressure plates 8. Then, place the top of the other pipe on the arc-shaped groove 4 of the left placement plate 3, connecting them end to end. Next, place the end of the second pipe on the arc-shaped groove 202 of the placement plate 201. Through the cooperation of the T-shaped slide rail 203 and the T-shaped slide groove 204, the position of the pipes is precisely adjusted, and the angle and position of the docking ends are adjusted. Finally, the fixing bolt 205 is rotated and the tension plate 206 is used to tighten the pressure on the inner wall of the transverse groove 207. Then, the two pressure plates 8 are used to secure it again, ensuring that the two pipes can be docked at the optimal angle and position. During the docking process, both pipes can obtain stable support and extremely precise positioning, effectively avoiding possible shaking and deviation during docking, and greatly improving the accuracy and quality of docking.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5Each of the two base plates 1 has nail holes 9 at the four corners of its top, and the inner diameter of the multiple nail holes 9 is the same. Anti-slip strips 10 are fixedly connected to the front and back sides of the bottom of the two base plates 1, and the multiple anti-slip strips 10 adopt an S-shaped design. Handles 11 are fixedly connected to the right side of the two base plates 1, and the exterior of the two handles 11 is frosted. A scale 12 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the right base plate 1, and the surface of the scale 12 is coated with fluorescent paint. Pressure discs 13 are fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the outer wall of the two fixing bolts 205. The front and back sides of the top of the second placement plate 201 are provided with disc grooves 14, and the dimensions of the two pressure discs 13 and the two disc grooves 14 are matched. Rubber pads 15 are fixedly connected to the inside of the first arc groove 4, the inside of the two pressure plates 8, and the inside of the second arc groove 202, and the surface of the multiple rubber pads 15 is frosted.
[0033] Specifically, nails are driven into the nail holes 9 to firmly fix the base plate 1 to the ground, preventing displacement of the device during operation. The S-shaped anti-slip strips 10 on the front and back sides of the bottom further enhance the friction between the device and the ground, ensuring the device remains stable during operation. The handle 11 fixed on the right side has a frosted finish, which not only facilitates carrying but also increases grip friction to prevent slippage. The scale 12 on the top left of the right base plate 1 is coated with fluorescent paint, allowing operators to clearly read data and accurately control the device even in dim lighting conditions. The pressure disc 13, which is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the fixing bolt 205, matches the size of the disc groove 14 opened on the front and rear sides of the top of the placement plate 201. When the operator rotates the fixing bolt 205, the pressure disc 13 can engage with the disc groove 14, increasing stability. The arc groove 4 at the top of the placement plate 3 has a frosted rubber pad 15 fixed inside, which perfectly matches the outline of the PCCPCD-C pipe. When placing the pipe, the rubber pad 15 can provide initial stable support and increase friction to prevent the pipe from sliding.
