Detailed Implementation

[0017] 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.

[0018] Example 1:

[0019] This utility model provides an impact-resistant protective shell for a pipeline intelligent guardian terminal, comprising an upper pipe sleeve 1 and a lower pipe sleeve 2. A protective shell 3 is installed on the upper pipe sleeve 1. A buffer plate 5 is fixedly installed on the outside of the protective shell 3 by bolts 4. A buffer pad 6 is provided between the buffer plate 5 and the protective shell 3. The upper pipe sleeve 1 is fixedly connected to the lower pipe sleeve 2 by a fastening assembly 7. The fastening assembly 7 includes a fixing seat 8, a nut 9, and a connecting assembly 10. The fixing seat 8 has a first stud 11, which is fixedly connected to the nut 9. A plug rod 12 is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 8 by the connecting assembly 10. The connecting assembly 10 includes a fixing member 13 and symmetrically arranged conical inserts 14. The fixing member 13 has a second stud 15, and the conical insert 14 has a groove 16 that abuts against and fixes the plug rod 12. The fixing seat 8 has an assembly hole 17, which includes a conical section 18 and a threaded section 19. The conical insert 14 is disposed within the conical section 18, and the second stud 15 is screwed and fixed to the threaded section 19. A reinforcing frame 20 is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 3. The buffer plate 5 includes a soft rubber layer 21 and an iron plate 22. The soft rubber layer 21 wraps around the iron plate 22. Both the soft rubber layer 21 and the buffer pad 6 are made of silicone rubber.

[0020] Through the above technical solution, the upper pipe sleeve 1 and the lower pipe sleeve 2 of this utility model are fixed to the surface of the pipe sleeve by fastening components 7. A protective shell 3 is installed on the upper pipe sleeve 1, and the intelligent pipeline guardian terminal is located inside the protective shell 3. A buffer plate 5 is fixedly installed on the outside of the protective shell 3 by bolts 4, and a buffer pad 6 is provided between the buffer plate 5 and the protective shell 3. When an external object hits the intelligent pipeline guardian terminal, the buffer plate 5 and the buffer pad 6 work together to prevent the impacting object from directly acting on the protective shell 3. The protective shell 3 wraps around the intelligent pipeline guardian terminal to prevent small impacting objects from hitting the intelligent pipeline guardian terminal, thus playing a protective role.

[0021] Fastening components 7 are located at the four corners. The connecting components 10 of the fastening components 7 are fixedly connected to the insert rods 12. One end of the insert rod 12 is directly inserted into the ground and fixedly connected to the ground. The other end of the insert rod 12 is fixedly connected to the fastening components 7, so that the upper sleeve 1 and the lower sleeve 2 are fixedly connected to the ground. When the protective shell 3 is subjected to a large impact, it prevents the protective shell 3 from displacing too much and prevents the pipe from bending and breaking.

[0022] Example 2:

[0023] In this embodiment, a protective shell 3 is installed on the upper pipe sleeve 1. The protective shell 3 is made of metal, and its internal space is used to accommodate the pipeline intelligent guardian terminal equipment. A buffer plate 5 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the protective shell 3 by bolts 4. The buffer plate 5 is made of high-strength alloy material and can withstand large impact forces. An elastic buffer pad 6 is provided between the buffer plate 5 and the protective shell 3. This pad has good buffering and energy absorption characteristics.

[0024] When an external object impacts the protective casing, it first contacts the outer buffer plate 5. The buffer plate 5 disperses the impact force to the buffer pad 6, which absorbs part of the impact energy through its elastic deformation. The remaining energy is then evenly transferred to the protective casing 3 through the buffer plate 5. This multi-stage buffer structure effectively reduces the impact force acting directly on the protective casing 3, protecting the internal terminal equipment from damage.

[0025] The upper sleeve 1 and the lower sleeve 2 are fixedly connected by fastening components 7 at the four corners. Each fastening component 7 includes a fixing seat 8, a nut 9, and a connecting component 10. The fixing seat 8 is welded to the upper sleeve 1, and its lower end is provided with a first stud 11. The nut 9 cooperates with the first stud 11 to achieve initial fixation. The connecting component 10 includes a connecting sleeve, one end of which is welded and fixed to the fixing seat 8, and the other end is connected to a plug rod 12.

[0026] The insertion rod 12 features a tapered design, with its tip facilitating insertion into the ground. During installation, the insertion rod 12 is inserted vertically into the ground to a certain depth, ensuring a stable connection between the entire protective casing and the earth. When the protective casing experiences a significant impact, the impact force is transmitted to the insertion rod 12 via the fastening assembly 7, where it is distributed to the ground. This fixing method effectively prevents excessive displacement of the protective casing upon impact, avoiding bending or breakage of the pipeline due to external forces.

[0027] The protective housing 3 houses an equipment mounting bracket for securing the intelligent pipeline monitoring terminal. A buffer gap is provided between the mounting bracket and the inner wall of the protective housing 3, and rubber shock-absorbing pads are installed at the contact points to further reduce the impact of vibration on the terminal equipment. A waterproof sealing ring is provided at the opening of the protective housing 3 to ensure the waterproof performance of the internal equipment.

[0028] The overall structural design of this protective shell fully considers various impact scenarios in actual use environments. Through a combination of external buffer structures and internal fixing devices, it achieves comprehensive protection for the intelligent pipeline guardian terminal. It can withstand minor everyday impacts and maintain structural stability under larger impacts, ensuring the normal operation of the terminal equipment.

[0029] Example 3:

[0030] The connecting assembly 10 in this embodiment mainly consists of a fixing member 13 and symmetrically arranged tapered inserts 14. The fixing member 13 is provided with a second stud 15, and the tapered insert 14 is provided with a groove 16. During assembly, the second stud 15 of the fixing member 13 is screwed into the threaded section 19 of the mounting hole 17 of the fixing seat 8, while the tapered insert 14 is placed in the tapered section 18 of the mounting hole 17. As the second stud 15 is gradually screwed in, it will generate axial pressure on the tapered insert 14. Since the tapered insert 14 and the tapered surface of the tapered section 18 are engaged, this axial pressure will be converted into radial clamping force, so that the groove 16 of the tapered insert 14 tightly presses against the surface of the insertion rod 12, thereby achieving a reliable fixed connection.

[0031] The unique feature of this connecting assembly 10 is its use of a conical mating mechanical principle. When an external impact force is applied to the protective shell, the impact force is transmitted to the connecting assembly 10 through the insert 12. Because the conical mating of the conical insert 14 and the conical section 18 has a self-locking characteristic, under external force, it further enhances the clamping force on the insert 12, creating a tightening effect. This design effectively prevents the connection from loosening or detaching under impact loads.

[0032] The assembly process of the connecting component 10 embodies the principle of precise mechanical fit. First, the tapered inserts 14 are symmetrically placed within the tapered section 18 of the assembly hole 17. Then, the insert rod 12 is inserted between the two tapered inserts 14. As the second stud 15 is screwed in, the tapered inserts 14 undergo radial displacement within the tapered section 18, and their grooves 16 gradually press against the surface of the insert rod 12. This design not only ensures ease of assembly but, more importantly, achieves a uniform distribution of clamping force, avoiding the problem of localized stress concentration.

[0033] In practical applications, the connecting assembly 10 exhibits excellent impact resistance. When the protective housing is subjected to a lateral impact, the impact force is transmitted to the connecting assembly 10 through the insert 12. The tapered surface mating structure of the tapered insert 14 can convert part of the impact energy into a more secure clamping of the insert 12, thereby effectively suppressing the relative displacement of the connection parts. This dynamic self-reinforcing characteristic significantly improves the reliability of the entire protective system.

[0034] Disassembly and maintenance of the connecting assembly 10 are also very convenient. Simply rotate the second stud 15 in the opposite direction to release the axial pressure on the tapered insert 14, allowing the tapered insert 14 to release its clamping grip on the insertion rod 12 under elastic recovery. This detachable design facilitates regular inspection and maintenance without affecting the reusability of the connecting parts.

[0035] The connecting component 10 in this embodiment achieves multiple advantages, including easy installation, reliable clamping, and strong impact resistance, through its ingenious conical surface fit design. The symmetrically arranged conical inserts 14 ensure a uniform distribution of clamping force, avoiding uneven loading caused by unilateral force application. The entire connecting system automatically increases clamping force when subjected to external impact, providing stable and reliable protective support for the pipeline intelligent guardian terminal.

[0036] Example 4:

[0037] In this embodiment, a reinforcing frame 20 is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 3. This reinforcing frame 20 adopts a ring-shaped frame structure and is evenly distributed along the circumference of the inner wall of the protective shell 3. The reinforcing frame 20 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective shell 3 by welding, forming a stable support structure. When the protective shell 3 is subjected to external impact, the reinforcing frame 20 can effectively disperse the impact force and prevent local deformation of the protective shell 3. The ring-shaped frame structure design of the reinforcing frame 20 creates multiple support points inside the protective shell 3. These support points work together to improve the overall rigidity of the protective shell 3.

[0038] The reinforcing frame 20 adopts a cross-grid design with reinforcing ribs at the grid nodes. This structural design allows the reinforcing frame 20 to absorb some energy through grid deformation when subjected to impact, while the reinforcing ribs evenly distribute the remaining impact force to the entire protective shell 3. When the protective shell 3 is subjected to impact from any direction, the cross-grid structure provides effective support, preventing damage to the protective shell 3 due to excessive stress at a single point. The reinforcing ribs further enhance the connection strength of the grid nodes, ensuring that the impact force is effectively dispersed.

[0039] A buffer layer made of elastic material is provided between the reinforcing frame 20 and the inner wall of the protective shell 3. This buffer layer absorbs some of the impact energy, reducing the impact force transmitted to the reinforcing frame 20. When the protective shell 3 is impacted, the buffer layer first undergoes elastic deformation to absorb the initial impact energy, and then the reinforcing frame 20 begins to function, providing rigid support. This dual protection mechanism ensures the impact resistance of the protective shell 3 while preventing brittle fracture due to excessive rigidity.

[0040] A transition structure with an arc-shaped design is provided at the connection between the upper end of the reinforcing frame 20 and the top of the protective shell 3. The transition structure can smoothly transmit the impact force from the top of the protective shell 3, avoiding stress concentration. When the top of the protective shell 3 is subjected to a vertical impact, the transition structure will evenly transmit the impact force to each support point of the reinforcing frame 20, preventing the top of the protective shell 3 from denting or cracking due to excessive local stress.

[0041] The lower end of the reinforcing frame 20 extends to the bottom of the protective shell 3 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective shell 3. This extended design allows the reinforcing frame 20 to provide support for the bottom of the protective shell 3, preventing deformation due to stress. When the protective shell 3 is subjected to an impact from the side, the fixed connection at the lower end of the reinforcing frame 20 can effectively restrain the displacement of the bottom of the protective shell 3, maintaining the overall stability of the protective shell 3. At the same time, the fixed connection at the bottom also enhances the connection strength between the protective shell 3 and the upper sleeve 1.

[0042] A transverse support rod is provided in the middle of the reinforcing frame 20, and the transverse support rod is perpendicularly connected to the annular frame. The transverse support rod can enhance the bending resistance of the reinforcing frame 20 in the vertical direction. When the protective shell 3 is subjected to lateral impact, the transverse support rod can effectively resist bending deformation. This design is particularly suitable for maintaining the stability of the protective shell 3 under uneven impact, ensuring that the protective shell 3 can still maintain good structural integrity under complex stress conditions.

[0043] The overall structure of the reinforcing frame 20 adopts a lightweight design, minimizing weight while ensuring sufficient rigidity. This design neither adds excessive burden to the protective shell 3 nor fails to provide effective impact protection. The lightweight design is achieved by optimizing the cross-sectional shape and material distribution of the reinforcing frame 20, ensuring optimal structural performance with the same amount of material.

[0044] Example 5:

[0045] In this embodiment, the upper pipe sleeve 1 is equipped with a protective shell 3, which is used to house the pipeline intelligent guardian terminal. A buffer plate 5 is fixedly installed on the outside of the protective shell 3 by bolts 4, and a buffer pad 6 is provided between the buffer plate 5 and the protective shell 3. The buffer plate 5 adopts a double-layer structure design, including an inner iron plate 22 and a soft rubber layer 21 covering the iron plate 22. Both the soft rubber layer 21 and the buffer pad 6 are made of silicone rubber. This structural design gives the buffer plate 5 both the strength of metal materials and the elasticity of rubber materials.

[0046] When an external object impacts the protective casing, the buffer plate 5, as the first line of defense, absorbs the impact force. The silicone rubber material of the soft rubber layer 21 effectively absorbs and disperses the impact energy, preventing the impact force from being directly transmitted to the protective casing 3. Simultaneously, the buffer pad 6 between the buffer plate 5 and the protective casing 3 further absorbs the remaining impact energy, forming a second line of defense. The silicone rubber material possesses excellent elasticity and damping properties, effectively mitigating the transmission of impact force and protecting the internal intelligent pipeline terminal from damage.

[0047] Fastening components 7 are located at the four corners of the upper sleeve 1 and the lower sleeve 2, and include a fixing base 8, a nut 9, and a connecting component 10. The fixing base 8 is provided with a first stud 11, which is fixedly connected to the nut 9. The fixing base 8 is fixedly connected to a plug rod 12 through the connecting component 10. One end of the plug rod 12 is inserted into the ground and fixedly connected to the ground, while the other end is connected to the fastening component 7. This fixing method ensures that the entire protective shell is stably connected to the ground, effectively preventing excessive displacement of the protective shell 3 under large impact.

[0048] When the protective casing is subjected to a significant impact, the fixed connection between the insertion rod 12 and the ground can resist the impact force and prevent the protective casing 3 from shifting. This design is particularly suitable for preventing pipe bending or breakage caused by displacement of the protective casing 3. At the same time, the synergistic effect of the buffer plate 5 and the buffer pad 6 can continuously absorb and disperse impact energy, ensuring the stable operation of the intelligent pipeline guardian terminal in complex environments.

[0049] The protective shell, through the synergistic action of the buffer plate 5, buffer pad 6, and fastening assembly 7, provides comprehensive protection for the pipeline intelligent guardian terminal. The double-layer structure of the buffer plate 5 ensures both impact resistance and excellent energy absorption capacity; the fixed connection of the fastening assembly 7 to the ground ensures the stability of the overall structure and effectively prevents displacement of the protective shell 3. This design can cope with impact threats in various complex environments, significantly improving the service life and reliability of the pipeline intelligent guardian terminal.
