Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation and installation of modular pipe sections, and in particular to a support frame for pipe sections. Background Technology
[0002] During the transportation and installation of pipe sections, supports are needed to support the pipe sections, especially during installation, when the pipe sections need to be supported to a specified height to facilitate pipe section docking and assembly.
[0003] However, the pipe supports currently used only consider supporting straight pipe sections, such as... Figure 1 The modular pipe section shown has U-shaped and T-shaped sections. Existing support technologies cannot stably support the modular pipe section, and cannot guarantee the safety of transportation and assembly of the modular pipe section during transportation and installation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing pipe supports in providing stable support for modular pipe sections, and to provide a support frame for pipe sections.
[0005] This utility model provides a support frame for pipe sections, comprising:
[0006] A base, on which a support column is provided;
[0007] A frame member, which is connected to the support column, has a receiving space for accommodating modular pipe segments;
[0008] The frame member is provided with clamping components on both opposite sides, and the clamping components are clamped and connected to the modular pipe section.
[0009] The accommodating space is provided with a supporting crossbar, which is slidably connected to the frame component and is used to abut against the modular pipe section.
[0010] This utility model discloses a support frame for pipe sections. Modular pipe sections are placed within an accommodating space, allowing the support frame to protect them from impacts. Frame members support T-shaped pipe sections and limit their movement via clamping components. Support crossbars support U-shaped pipe sections, ensuring the modular pipe sections are fixed and secured to the support frame. Support columns raise the height of the frame members, suspending the modular pipe sections and preventing impacts to their bottoms. A base ensures the stability of the modular pipe sections. The support crossbars are slidably connected to the frame members, allowing adjustment of their position to facilitate support of the U-shaped pipe sections.
[0011] Preferably, the frame member is a rectangular frame, and the two ends of the supporting crossbar are slidably connected to the frame member.
[0012] By connecting the two ends of the support crossbar to the frame components, the connection between the support crossbar and the frame components is ensured, enabling the support crossbar to provide stable support for the modular pipe section.
[0013] Preferably, the frame member is provided with a sliding groove, and the end of the supporting crossbar is provided with a sliding member, which is slidably connected to the sliding groove.
[0014] The support crossbar is easy to slide by the cooperation of the groove and the sliding component, which makes it easy to adjust the position of the support crossbar.
[0015] Preferably, the frame member has a notch, and the notch communicates with the slide groove.
[0016] The support crossbars can be inserted into or removed from the chute through the notch. The number of support crossbars is adapted to the number of U-shaped pipe sections on the modular pipe section, so that the modular pipe section is stably supported.
[0017] Preferably, the support crossbar is provided with a limiting component, which can abut against the frame member.
[0018] By using a limiting component to abut against the frame component, the support crossbar is fixed at a designated position on the frame component, preventing displacement of the support crossbar after it supports the modular pipe section, thereby providing stable support for the modular pipe section.
[0019] Preferably, the limiting component includes a first limiting member and a second limiting member, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the supporting crossbar.
[0020] The two ends of the support crossbar are respectively abutted against the frame component by the first limiting component and the second limiting component, so that the support crossbar is firmly limited and the support crossbar provides stable support for the modular pipe section.
[0021] Preferably, the limiting component includes a first block, a second block, and a limiting bolt. The first block is slidably disposed along the axial direction of the supporting crossbar and can abut against the frame member. The second block can abut against the first block and is rotatably connected to the limiting bolt. The limiting bolt is threadedly connected to the supporting crossbar.
[0022] The second block is displaced by the limiting bolt, causing the second block to press against the first block. The first block extends from the end of the support crossbar and abuts against the frame member, thereby limiting and fixing the support crossbar.
[0023] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a first clamping member and a second clamping member, the first clamping member and the second clamping member being spaced apart, and the first clamping member and the second clamping member respectively abutting against the modular pipe section.
[0024] The first and second clamping members are respectively abutted against both sides of the T-shaped pipe section of the modular pipe section to prevent displacement of the modular pipe section and ensure that the modular pipe section is stably supported.
[0025] Preferably, it also includes a lifting platform, which is equipped with a lifting component, one end of which is connected to the base and the other end of which is connected to the lifting platform.
[0026] When connecting and assembling pipelines, the height of the modular pipe sections is adjusted by a lifting assembly, which facilitates the installation and connection of the modular pipe sections.
[0027] Preferably, the bottom of the lifting platform is provided with a number of casters.
[0028] The casters facilitate the movement of the modular pipe sections, allowing them to be quickly moved to the designated position during assembly.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0030] 1. This utility model provides a support frame for pipe sections. Modular pipe sections are placed in an accommodating space, allowing the support frame to protect the modular pipe sections and prevent them from being bumped or knocked. The frame supports the T-shaped pipe sections and limits their position using a clamping assembly. The support crossbar supports the U-shaped pipe sections, allowing the modular pipe sections to be fixed and secured on the support frame. The support column raises the height of the frame, suspending the modular pipe sections and preventing them from being bumped or knocked at the bottom. The base ensures the stability of the modular pipe sections. The support crossbar is slidably connected to the frame, and its position can be adjusted to facilitate support for the U-shaped pipe sections.
[0031] 2. This utility model provides a support frame for pipe sections, which has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and is convenient to use. It supports modular pipe sections to a specified height through frame components and support crossbars, and limits the movement of the modular pipe sections through clamping components to prevent displacement, thus ensuring stable support and preventing damage from impacts. It also facilitates easy installation and connection of the modular pipe sections. The support crossbars are slidably connected to the frame components, allowing for quick and easy fixing of the modular pipe sections to the frame components by adjusting the position of the crossbars. It has good economic and practical value. Attached Figure Description

However, it should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention to the following embodiments; all technologies implemented based on the content of the present invention fall within the scope of the present invention.
[0043] Unless otherwise specified, the use of terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "center," "inner," and "outer" to indicate orientation or positional relationships in the description of specific embodiments of this utility model is based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the utility model product / equipment / device is typically placed during use.

Such connections can be mechanical, electrical, or communication connections; they can be direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components.
[0048] Example 1
[0049] like Figures 2-6 As shown, a support frame for pipe sections is specifically composed of a base 1 and a frame 3. A support column 2 is provided on the base 1, located at the top of the base 1, with one end of the support column 2 connected to the base 1 and the other end connected to the frame 3. A receiving space 4 for accommodating modular pipe sections 100 is provided in the middle of the frame 3. When supporting the modular pipe section 100, part of the modular pipe section 100 is placed in the receiving space 4. Clamping components 6 are respectively provided on both sides of the frame 3, so that the clamping components 6 are clamped and connected to the modular pipe section 100, thereby limiting and fixing the modular pipe section 100. A support crossbar 5 is provided in the receiving space 4, which supports the modular pipe section 100, so that the modular pipe section 100 is stably supported. The end of the support crossbar 5 is slidably connected to the frame 3, so that the position of the support crossbar 5 can be adjusted.
[0050] Modular pipe section 100 is placed within the receiving space 4, allowing the support frame to protect it and prevent it from being bumped or knocked. Frame component 3 supports the T-shaped pipe section and limits its position via clamping component 6. Support crossbar 5 supports the U-shaped pipe section 101, allowing the modular pipe section 100 to be fixed and secured on the support frame. Support column 2 raises the height of frame component 3, suspending the modular pipe section 100 and preventing its bottom from being bumped or knocked. Base 1 ensures the stability of the modular pipe section 100. Support crossbar 5 is slidably connected to frame component 3, allowing the position of support crossbar 5 to be adjusted for support of the U-shaped pipe section 101.
[0051] In one or more embodiments, the frame member 3 is a rectangular frame, and the two ends of the support crossbar 5 are slidably connected to the frame member 3 respectively; specifically, the two ends of the support crossbar 5 are connected to the frame member 3 respectively, so that the support crossbar 5 can provide better support effect and avoid excessive local stress on the support crossbar 5.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, the frame member 3 is provided with a groove 31, and the end of the support crossbar 5 is provided with a sliding member 52, which is slidably connected to the groove 31. Specifically, the groove 31 is a strip groove, and the sliding member 52 is a rectangular block. The sliding member 52 is fitted into the groove 31 to prevent the support crossbar 5 from rotating and to ensure that the support crossbar 5 provides stable support for the modular pipe section 100. Specifically, the support crossbar 5 is a rod with a rectangular cross-section.
[0053] In an optional embodiment, the frame member 3 is provided with a notch 32, which is connected to the slide groove 31. Specifically, according to the number of U-shaped pipe sections 101 in the modular pipe section 100, a corresponding number of support crossbars 5 can be placed from the notch 32 into the slide groove 31, so that multiple support crossbars 5 can jointly support the U-shaped pipe section 101, thereby providing stable support for the modular pipe section 100.
[0054] In an optional embodiment, the support crossbar 5 is provided with a limiting component 7, which can abut against the frame member 3; specifically, the limiting component 7 abuts against the frame member 3 to limit and fix the support crossbar 5 in a designated position, thereby preventing the support crossbar 5 from shifting and ensuring that the modular pipe section 100 is stably supported.
[0055] In an optional embodiment, the limiting component 7 includes a first limiting member 71 and a second limiting member 72. The first limiting member 71 and the second limiting member 72 are respectively disposed at both ends of the supporting crossbar 5. Specifically, the first limiting member 71 and the second limiting member 72 abut against the frame member 3 at both ends of the supporting crossbar 5, so that the supporting crossbar 5 is firmly fixed.
[0056] In an optional embodiment, the limiting component 7 consists of a first block 713, a second block 712, and a limiting bolt 711. The first block 713 is slidably disposed along the axial direction of the supporting crossbar 5 and can abut against the frame member 3. The second block 712 can abut against the first block 713 and is rotatably connected to the limiting bolt 711. The limiting bolt 711 is threadedly connected to the supporting crossbar 5. Specifically, the limiting bolt 711 pushes the second block 712 to move, causing the second block 712 to press against the first block 713, so that the first block 713 extends from the end of the supporting crossbar 5 and abuts against the frame member 3, thereby limiting and fixing the supporting crossbar 5. The first block 713 is provided with a first inclined surface, and the second block 712 is provided with a second inclined surface. The first inclined surface and the second inclined surface abut against each other, and the sliding direction of the first block 713 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the second block 712.
[0057] In one or more embodiments, the clamping component 6 includes a first clamping member 61 and a second clamping member 62, which are spaced apart and abut against the modular pipe section 100 respectively. By having the first clamping member 61 and the second clamping member 62 abut against both sides of the T-shaped pipe section of the modular pipe section 100 respectively, displacement of the modular pipe section 100 is prevented, and the modular pipe section 100 is stably supported.
[0058] Example 2
[0059] like Figure 7The support frame for pipe sections shown is structurally similar to that of Embodiment 1. However, unlike Embodiment 1, the support frame for pipe sections also includes a lifting platform 8. The lifting platform 8 is equipped with a lifting assembly 9. One end of the lifting assembly 9 is connected to the base 1, and the other end is connected to the lifting platform 8. When connecting and assembling the pipes, the height of the modular pipe section 100 is adjusted by the lifting assembly, which facilitates the installation and connection of the modular pipe section 100.
[0060] Specifically, the lifting assembly 9 consists of four lifting rods, each connected to a hydraulic controller. The height of the lifting rods is controlled by the hydraulic controller, thereby adjusting the height of the base 1. The four lifting rods are located at the four corners of the rectangular lifting platform 8.
[0061] In an optional embodiment, the bottom of the lifting platform 8 is provided with several casters 10; the casters 10 facilitate the displacement of the modular pipe section 100, so that the modular pipe section 100 can be quickly pushed to the designated position during assembly.
[0062] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
