Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe welding and fixing technology, and in particular to a pipe and electrofusion fitting welding and fixing device that is easy to adjust. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of pipeline engineering, the insertion welding of pipes and electrofusion fittings is a key process for achieving pipeline connections, and the quality of the connection directly affects the sealing performance, pressure resistance, and service life of the pipeline system. During this welding process, ensuring that the pipes on both sides maintain a preset angle with the electrofusion fitting is crucial, as the accuracy of the angle directly determines the routing precision, stress distribution, and overall structural stability of the pipeline after welding.
[0003] To ensure the accuracy of the aforementioned included angle, specialized fixing tools are typically used to position and secure the pipes on both sides. The core function of these tools is to limit the displacement and angular changes of the pipes during the welding operation, keeping the relative position between the pipes and the electrofusion fittings stable. This provides a reliable reference for the welding process and ensures that the welded joint meets design standards.
[0004] However, in practical applications, electrofusion fittings exhibit diverse specifications, especially those used as bends. Their bending angles are designed in various types to meet different engineering requirements, such as the common 90°, 45°, and other special angles. Different specifications of bend fittings require different included angles between the two sides of the fitting to accommodate different pipeline routing designs.
[0005] Current tools for securing pipes have significant limitations: the included angle of existing tools is usually fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the specifications of electrofusion fittings. This means that when dealing with electrofusion fittings at different angles, construction workers must be equipped with fixing tools corresponding to the included angle, and each type of electrofusion fitting requires a dedicated fixing tool. This situation not only increases the procurement and storage costs of construction equipment but also prolongs construction preparation time and reduces construction efficiency. On the construction site, workers need to frequently change tools to adapt to different operational needs. Especially in complex pipeline laying scenarios, frequent tool changes can easily lead to cumbersome operations, delays, and other problems, seriously affecting the convenience and practicality of construction.

[0037] See Figures 1-5An easily adjustable pipe and electrofusion fitting welding and fixing device includes two adjusting bases 10, which are rotatably arranged relative to each other about a pivot 100. Each adjusting base 10 is provided with a fixing module 20 for fixing a pipe 40. Multiple locking holes 120 are arranged in a circular array around the pivot 100. A plug-in locking module 30 is provided on any one of the adjusting bases 10, which can be plugged into the corresponding locking holes 120 of the two adjusting bases 10, thereby constraining the relative rotation of the two adjusting bases 10.
[0038] The working principle is as follows:
[0039] Two adjusting bases can rotate relative to each other around a pivot, providing a basis for adjusting the included angle of the two pipes. In use, first place the electrofusion fitting to be welded in the preset position, then insert the two pipes onto the corresponding ends of the electrofusion fitting, and finally secure the pipes using a fixing module to prevent displacement during welding.
[0040] Based on the bending angle requirements of the electrofusion fitting, rotate the two adjusting bases to form an angle between the pipes on both sides and the electrofusion fitting that meets the design requirements. Since multiple locking holes are arranged in a circular array around the pivot point on the adjusting bases, when the two adjusting bases rotate to the target angle, corresponding locking holes will appear on the two adjusting bases. At this time, operate the plug-in locking module located on either adjusting base and insert it into the corresponding locking hole on the two adjusting bases. With the cooperation of the plug-in locking module and the locking hole, the relative rotation of the two adjusting bases can be effectively constrained, keeping the angle between the pipes on both sides and the electrofusion fitting stable.
[0041] See Figure 6 The insertion locking module 30 includes a mounting bracket 310 fixed on any one of the adjustment bases 10. The mounting bracket 310 is movably provided with a moving rod 330. The moving rod 330 is connected to a movable locking pin 320 that can be inserted into the locking hole 120. The mounting bracket 310 and the movable locking pin 320 are connected with an elastic element 340. The elastic element 340 is used to apply force to the movable locking pin 320 so that the movable locking pin 320 is kept inserted into the two locking holes 120.
[0042] When it is necessary to lock the relative angle of the two adjusting bases, the elastic element applies a continuous force to the movable locking pin, pushing the movable locking pin and its connected movable rod along the mounting bracket toward the locking hole, so that the movable locking pin is precisely inserted into the corresponding locking holes of the two adjusting bases. At this time, the movable locking pin, through its engagement with the locking hole, directly restricts the relative rotation of the two adjusting bases around the pivot axis, thereby firmly maintaining the preset included angle between the pipes on both sides and the electrofusion fitting.
[0043] When the angle needs to be adjusted, the installer can pull the moving rod, causing the movable locking pin to move in the opposite direction along the mounting bracket against the force of the elastic element. This allows the movable locking pin to be pulled out of the locking hole, releasing the constraint on the two adjusting bases. At this point, the two adjusting bases can rotate freely relative to each other to adjust to a new angle. Once the angle is determined, releasing the moving rod will immediately restore the elastic element's deformation, pushing the movable locking pin back into the new corresponding locking hole, thus re-locking the system.
[0044] Furthermore, the two adjustable bases are arranged to rotate and connect to each other in a stacked configuration, while the plug-in locking module is located on the upper adjustable base to facilitate manual operation of the plug-in locking module.
[0045] Furthermore, the elastic element 340 is a spring.
[0046] See Figure 6 The mounting bracket 310 is provided with a through hole 360, and the movable rod 330 is movably inserted into the through hole 360. The end of the movable rod 330 away from the movable locking pin 320 is connected to a limit handle 350.
[0047] In the structure of this plug-in locking module, the through hole of the mounting bracket provides precise guidance and movement space for the moving rod. The moving rod is inserted into the through hole in a movable plug-in manner, allowing it to move stably back and forth along the axial direction of the through hole. This, in turn, drives the connected moving locking pin to move synchronously, ensuring the straightness and accuracy of the moving locking pin during insertion or withdrawal from the locking hole, and avoiding locking failure or operational jamming caused by deviation of the movement trajectory.
[0048] The limiting handle connected to the end of the moving rod away from the moving locking pin plays a crucial role in operation. When it is necessary to adjust the relative angle of the two adjusting bases, the operator can easily move the moving rod along the through hole away from the locking hole by holding the limiting handle and applying pulling force. This allows the moving locking pin to overcome the force of the elastic element and be pulled out of the locking hole. At this time, the limiting handle provides a reliable point of force application for the operator, improving the convenience and labor-saving of the operation.
[0049] Meanwhile, the limit handle is used to constrain the force of the elastic element. When the elastic element pushes the moving rod to move closer to the locking hole, the limit handle will abut against the mounting bracket to form an effective limit, preventing the moving rod from disengaging from the through hole under the continuous force of the elastic element, thus ensuring the integrity of the entire plug-in locking module structure and the safety of operation.
[0050] See Figure 4The fixing module 20 includes a first clamping member 210 and a second clamping member 220, and the fixing tube 40 is clamped and fixed between the first clamping member 210 and the second clamping member 220; the first clamping member 210 and the second clamping member 220 are connected to each other by a plurality of fasteners 250; the first clamping member 210 is detachably connected to the adjusting base 10. The fasteners 250 may be bolts.
[0051] See Figure 4 The fixing module 20 further includes a connecting base 200, which is detachably connected to the adjusting base 10, and the first clamping member 210 is detachably connected to the connecting base 200. By setting the connecting base 200 to detach the first clamping member 210 for quick assembly and disassembly, it is convenient to replace the first clamping member 210 according to the pipe diameter of different pipe materials.
[0052] See Figure 4 The adjusting base 10 is provided with an adjusting groove 110, and the connecting base 200 is provided with a through hole 203 corresponding to the adjusting groove 110. A bolt 230 is inserted into the adjusting groove 110, and the bolt 230 extends upward through the through hole 203. A nut 240 is threadedly connected to the bolt 230, and the adjusting base 10 and the connecting base 200 are clamped and fixed between the nut 240 and the bolt head of the bolt 230. The adjusting groove 110 allows the position of the connecting base 200 to be adjusted according to different pipe materials to meet different fixing requirements.
[0053] See Figure 4 The connecting base 200 is provided with a mounting slot 201, and the first clamping member 210 is provided with a mounting block 211, which is movably inserted into the mounting slot 201. The connecting base 200 has threaded holes 202 on both sides that communicate with the mounting slot 201. The mounting block 211 has a limiting hole 212 that corresponds to and communicates with the threaded hole 202. A limiting bolt 260, which is inserted into the limiting hole 212, is threaded into the threaded hole 202. Locking is achieved by using an insertion connection with the limiting bolt, facilitating disassembly and assembly, and simplifying future replacement operations.
