[0030] 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.

[0031] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0033] A protective device for steel pipe welding includes a helmet 1, with a brim plate 2 fixedly connected to the front end of the helmet 1, and a protective face shield assembly 3 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the brim plate 2. A rotating protective mechanism 4 is installed inside the protective face shield assembly 3, and a grooved cover plate 5 is bolted to the back of the protective face shield assembly 3. The protective face shield assembly 3 includes a face shield body 31, with arc-shaped structures on both sides. The face shield body 31 corresponds to the grooved cover plate 5 front to back. An adjusting shaft 32 is rotatably connected to the bottom inner side of the face shield body 31, and a half-gear 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the adjusting shaft 32. A support spring 36 is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner side of the mask body 31, and a connecting mechanism 37 is fixedly connected to the center of the inner side of the mask body 31; the rotating protection mechanism 4 includes a damping bearing 41, a retainer 42 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the damping bearing 41, a circular protective disc 43 is clamped on the outer side of the retainer 42, the circular protective disc 43 is located between the mask body 31 and the grooved cover plate 5, and a toothed ring 44 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the circular protective disc 43; the adjusting shaft 32 is located below the toothed ring 44, and the toothed ring 44 is meshed with the adjusting shaft 32, and the damping bearing 41 is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting mechanism 37.

[0034] As a further implementation of this solution, the connecting mechanism 37 includes a connecting seat 371. The top and bottom of the front end of the connecting seat 371 are provided with adjustment cavities 372. Two return springs 373 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the adjustment cavity 372. The front end of the return spring 373 is fixedly connected to a limiting inclined block 374. The top of the front end of the limiting inclined block 374 is an inclined structure. Dovetail blocks 375 are fixedly connected to both sides of the limiting inclined block 374. The dovetail blocks 375 are slidably connected to the inner side of the adjustment cavity 372. This design effectively prevents the limiting inclined block 374 from accidentally separating from the connecting seat 371 during movement, ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire connecting mechanism 37 during operation.

[0035] As a further implementation of this solution, a collection plate 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the mask body 31. The collection plate 34 is parallel to the mask body 31. An oil-absorbing sponge 35 for absorbing lubricating oil is embedded in the inner side of the collection plate 34. The oil-absorbing sponge 35 is located below the half gear 33. During the rotation of the half gear 33, its teeth will fully contact the oil-absorbing sponge 35 below for absorbing lubricating oil with each rotation. In this way, the lubricating oil will adhere to the teeth of the half gear 33. When the half gear 33 meshes with the gear ring 44, it can ensure a good meshing effect between the two, reduce wear, and at the same time ensure the effectiveness of the angle adjustment of the gear ring 44, and improve the working performance of the rotation protection mechanism 4.

[0036] As a further implementation of this solution, there is a gap between the inner side of the support spring 36 and the outer side of the connecting seat 371. The support spring 36 and the circular protective disc 43 are located on the same central axis. The front end of the support spring 36 is in contact with the outer side of the circular protective disc 43. The support spring 36 can provide a certain support force for the circular protective disc 43, ensuring the stability of the circular protective disc 43 when rotating and preventing it from shaking or deviating, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the entire rotating protective mechanism 4. At the same time, when the circular protective disc 43 needs to be disassembled, the limiting wedge block 374 no longer limits the circular protective disc 43. The elastic force of the support spring 36 can push the circular protective disc 43 to move up quickly and separate from the connecting seat 371, achieving the purpose of quick disassembly.

[0037] As a further implementation of this solution, the other end of the adjusting shaft 32 is fixedly connected to an anti-slip wheel 38. The anti-slip wheel 38 and the half gear 33 are located on the same central axis. The rear end of the anti-slip wheel 38 is rotatably fitted with a dustproof rubber pad 7. The dustproof rubber pad 7 is bonded and fixed to the mask body 31. The dustproof rubber pad 7 can effectively prevent dust and other impurities during the welding process from entering the rotating parts of the adjusting shaft 32, protect the adjusting shaft 32, ensure its rotation effect, extend its service life, and thus ensure the stable operation of the entire protective device.

[0038] As a further implementation of this solution, a dust cover 6 is installed on the outside of the anti-slip wheel 38. The dust cover 6 has a hollow structure inside. The dust cover 6 is bonded and fixed to the front end of the mask body 31. The dust cover 6 can effectively block dust, protect the adjusting shaft 32 and the anti-slip wheel 38, reduce the wear and impact caused by dust, and ensure the cleanliness and normal working performance of the relevant components of the protective device.

[0039] Workflow: During installation, remove the bolts at the corners of the grooved cover plate 5 to separate the grooved cover plate 5 from the inside of the mask body 31. Install the prepared rotating protective mechanism 4 through the mask body 31. Specifically, align the prepared damping bearing 41 with the center of the connecting seat 371. By pressing the circular protective disc 43, the damping bearing 41 is embedded into the middle of the connecting seat 371 through the top. During this process, the inclined limiting block 374 at the front end is squeezed by the damping bearing 41 and moves inward along the path of the adjusting cavity 372. During the movement, the dovetail block 375 slides and connects with the adjusting cavity 372, preventing the limiting block 374 from accidentally contacting the connecting seat 371. When the damping bearing 41 is inserted into the middle of the connecting seat 371, the dust cover 6 located below will be compressed by the circular protective disc 43 to shrink and store energy, while the limiting wedge 374 will be ejected outward by the elastic force of the return spring 373. The position of the card seat 42 is limited by the return spring 373. Then the grooved cover plate 5 is returned to its original position. The entire rotating protective mechanism 4 is easy, efficient and practical to install. By wearing the headgear 1 to the head, the protective mask assembly 3 is located in front of the face. The face is protected by the mask body 31. The staff can observe through the observation slot opened on the top of the mask body 31 and the grooved cover plate 5. The circular protective disc 43 protects the eyes. If welding slag and dust affect the visibility of this part of the disc during prolonged steel pipe welding, the worker can rotate the anti-slip wheel 38 located in front. Simultaneously, the anti-slip wheel 38 rotates, driving the half-gear 33 to rotate synchronously via the adjusting shaft 32. When the teeth of the half-gear 33 mesh with the adjusting shaft 32, the gear ring 44 causes the circular protective disc 43 to rotate intermittently. This causes the area of ​​the circular protective disc 43 with welding slag to move out of the welder's line of sight, while the clean area of ​​the disc 43 moves into front of the welder's line of sight, thus quickly restoring a clear field of vision. Furthermore, with each rotation of the half-gear 33, the circular protective disc 43... The protective disc 43 rotates 15°. This intermittent rotation allows for high precision in adjusting the angle of the circular protective disc 43. This method is more convenient and efficient than the traditional method of improving observation through on-site cleaning and wiping. During use, the dust cover 6 prevents welding dust from falling directly onto the outside of the adjusting shaft 32 and the anti-slip wheel 38. The dustproof rubber pad 7 protects the outer side of the adjusting shaft 32, ensuring the rotation effect of the adjusting shaft 32. At the same time, with each rotation of the half gear 33, the teeth of the half gear 33 will fully contact the oil-absorbing sponge 35 below, which absorbs lubricating oil, ensuring the meshing effect between the half gear 33 and the gear ring 44 and ensuring the effectiveness of the angle adjustment of the gear ring 44.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
