Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of gas pipeline technology, specifically referring to a gas PE pipeline water collection device. Background Technology
[0002] During operation, PE gas pipes may experience water accumulation due to various reasons such as rainwater, groundwater infiltration, internal water vapor condensation, drainage facility problems, and improper installation of household gas water heaters.
[0003] The following methods are commonly used to remove water accumulated inside gas PE pipelines:
[0004] 1. Gas shut-off purging: This method involves excavating a working pit and injecting compressed air into the gas pipeline to drain the water. However, this method may damage existing road surfaces or landscaping, and due to the lengthy operation process, it may cause user dissatisfaction. Furthermore, if the shut-off valve does not close tightly, water in the pipeline may be blown into other pipelines, causing additional damage.
[0005] 2. Fishing Method: This method uses felt or pumps to drain water through the access panel, eliminating the need for excavation and damage to the road surface and greenery, making it relatively economical. However, this method only temporarily alleviates the water blockage problem, as the slope and settlement of the pipes can cause water to accumulate in multiple areas, and the fishing method can only drain a portion of the water. With the resumption of gas use, new areas of water accumulation may form, leading to recurring water blockage problems.
[0006] 3. Install a condensate pump: In existing technology, a condensate pump can be installed on the gas transmission pipeline to periodically remove accumulated water to solve the water blockage problem. However, traditional condensate pumps have a relatively simple structure, and gas shutdown measures are still required during maintenance, affecting the normal use of gas. Utility Model Content
[0007] This utility model aims to at least solve the problem of water accumulation inside PE gas pipes, overcome the problem that gas needs to be stopped to drain the water during the actual operation, and provides a new method for draining water, achieving the effect of uninterrupted gas supply and reusability.
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: The utility model proposes a gas PE pipeline water collection device, including a PE pipeline. The outer wall of the pipeline is wrapped with two sets of symmetrical C-shaped shells, with mounting plates extending from both ends. The mounting plates are fixed by hexagonal bolts and nuts. A through hole is opened at the top of the upper shell, penetrating the pipeline. A rubber sealing ring is embedded in the through hole, and the sealing ring is located between the upper shell and the pipeline. The through hole is threaded and threaded with internal and external threaded joints. The internal and external threaded joints are vertically threaded with sealing bolts.
[0009] Furthermore, a rubber sheet is placed between the housing and the pipe to prevent direct contact.
[0010] Furthermore, the sealing bolt extends into the pipe through the through hole into a galvanized short pipe, the end of which is beveled.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model using the above structure are as follows: it achieves the technical effects of simple installation, long service life, and reliable sealing performance; it can repeatedly extract liquid when there is liquid accumulation in PE pipes; at the same time, this device plays two roles with one connector, reducing other auxiliary parts in the pipeline during emergency repairs, ensuring the quality of emergency repairs while reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

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.
[0016] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," and "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0017] Example 1:
[0018] As per the instruction manual Figure 1-2As shown, a gas PE pipeline water collection device includes a PE pipeline 1. The outer wall of the pipeline 1 is wrapped with two sets of symmetrical C-shaped shells 2, with mounting plates 3 extending from both ends. The mounting plates 3 are fixed by hexagonal bolts 4 and nuts 5. A rubber plate is placed between the shell 2 and the pipeline 1 to avoid direct contact. A through hole 6 is opened at the top of the upper shell 2 to penetrate the pipeline 1. A rubber sealing ring 7 is embedded in the through hole 6 and is located between the upper shell 2 and the pipeline 1. The through hole 6 is threaded and threaded with an internal and external threaded joint 8. A sealing bolt 9 is vertically threaded to the internal and external threaded joint 8. The sealing bolt 9 extends into the pipeline 1 through the through hole 6 into a galvanized short pipe 10. The end of the short pipe 10 is beveled.
[0019] In a specific implementation of this invention, when there is water accumulation inside the low-pressure PE pipe 1, after opening the through hole 6 on the pipe 1, the upper and lower sets of housings 2 are installed on the pipe 1 using mounting plates 3, internal hex bolts 4, and nuts 5. A sealing ring 7 is inserted into the through hole 6. Then, the short pipe 10 is tightened from bottom to top onto the internal and external threaded joint 8 outside the pipe 1, forming a single unit. Subsequently, the sealing bolt 9 is screwed in from above the internal and external threaded joint 8, using the short pipe 10 to block the internal and external threaded joint 8 from both ends. Finally, the short pipe 10 is then tightened to form a single unit. Pipe 10, internal and external threaded connector 8, and sealing bolt 9 are inserted together into the through hole 6 that has been filled with sealing ring 7. The external thread of the internal and external threaded connector 8 is tightened and fixed to the shell 2 thread. When there is water in the pipe, the sealing bolt 9 is unscrewed and the water is pumped out with short pipe 10. After pumping out, the sealing bolt 9 is screwed back on. If a second pumping is required, the sealing bolt 9 is unscrewed again and the water is pumped out. Thus, the sealing bolt 9 can effectively block the air in the through hole 6 of pipe 1, and can also repeatedly pump out the water in pipe 1.
