Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pipeline transportation, and more specifically, it relates to a sloping pipeline support device. This utility model also relates to a transportation system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the support work for inclined pipelines commonly uses concrete piers or steel structures with fixed heights. Once these traditional support devices are built, their support height cannot be adjusted. When the pipeline needs to be adjusted in height due to long-term use, foundation settlement, or process changes, complex operations such as raising, cutting, or complete replacement are required, which are cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Furthermore, some support structures are single-point supports, lacking effective linkage and stabilization mechanisms. When bearing the weight of the pipeline and the slope component, this can easily lead to uneven stress on the pipeline, lateral slippage, or vibration, affecting the long-term stability and safety of the pipeline system. At the same time, existing height adjustment methods (such as using jacks for localized lifting) often fail to achieve synchronous and precise raising and lowering of multiple support points, easily causing localized stress concentration or deformation of the pipeline during adjustment. These shortcomings of existing technologies highlight the urgent need to develop a device that can dynamically, synchronously, and smoothly adjust the support height and provide stable and reliable support. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a slope-type pipe support device to solve the technical problem that the support height of the slope pipe is fixed and it is difficult to adapt to different slopes or changes in pipe settlement.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: to provide a sloping pipe support device, comprising: The bracket includes a bracket body and a first guide plate inclinedly disposed on the bracket body; A roller is rotatably mounted on the top of the support body and used to support the pipe. The axis of the roller is perpendicular to the arrangement path of the pipe. The roller is stopable and guided by the first guide plate. As the roller moves on the first guide plate, it has a displacement component extending in the vertical direction.

[0005] In one feasible implementation, the support further includes a second guide plate, and the rollers are two rollers arranged at intervals along the pipeline layout path. Along the pipeline layout path, the second guide plate and the first guide plate are disposed opposite to each other on the top of the support body to form a stable triangular or trapezoidal structure, and the two rollers are respectively guided and adapted to the opposite outer surfaces of the first guide plate and the second guide plate.

[0006] In one feasible implementation, the inclined pipe support device further includes an installation mechanism, which includes a sliding plate and an installation plate. The sliding plate is parallel to and slidably adapted to the first guide plate. The roller is rotatably adapted to the top of the installation plate, and the bottom of the installation plate is fixedly connected to the sliding plate.

[0007] In one feasible implementation, the two rollers rise or fall synchronously.

[0008] In one feasible implementation, the installation mechanism further includes two limiting wheels. Along the axis of the roller, two guide grooves with oppositely arranged slots are provided on both sides of the installation plate. The two sides of the first guide plate are respectively adapted to guide the two guide grooves. The two limiting wheels are respectively rotatably disposed in the two guide grooves, and the two limiting wheels are respectively adapted to roll on both sides of the first guide plate.

[0009] In one feasible implementation, the mounting mechanism further includes a positioning plate located on the side of the first guide plate away from the mounting plate, and the guide groove is formed between the positioning plate and the mounting plate.

[0010] In one feasible implementation, the inclined pipe support device further includes a drive mechanism, which includes a drive screw and a first nut and a second nut threadedly adapted to the drive screw. The drive screw is rotatably disposed on the support body and is located below the idler roller. The axis of the drive screw is perpendicular to the axis of the idler roller. The first nut and the second nut are respectively connected to the two idler rollers. As the drive screw rotates, the two idler rollers move closer to each other and rise simultaneously, or move away from each other and fall simultaneously.

[0011] In one feasible implementation, the driving mechanism further includes a drive motor and a limiting plate. The limiting plate is movably inserted into the bracket body in the vertical direction. The drive screw is rotatably adapted to the limiting plate. The drive motor is mounted on the limiting plate to drive the drive screw to rotate. The drive motor, the drive screw, and the limiting plate move synchronously in the vertical direction.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of the inclined pipe support device provided by this utility model are as follows: First, through the cooperation of the aforementioned support body and the inclined first guide plate with the idler roller, the idler roller can move along the first guide plate and generate a displacement component in the vertical direction during the movement. The rotating idler roller can make the horizontal movement smoother by rotating itself during the inclined movement, preventing its horizontal movement from interfering with the pipeline. This realizes the flexible adjustment of the idler roller support height, and thus can dynamically adjust the support height according to the pipeline layout requirements, thereby solving the technical problem of fixed support height for sloping pipelines and difficulty in adapting to different slopes or pipeline settlement changes.

[0013] Secondly, the second guide plate and the first guide plate are positioned opposite each other on the top of the support body to form a stable triangular or trapezoidal structure, which provides stable support for the installation of the idler rollers. This achieves bidirectional support and coordinated force distribution for the pipeline by the two idler rollers, enhances the stability and load-bearing capacity of the support device, and solves the technical problems of pipeline swaying, uneven stress distribution, or insufficient stability that may be caused by single-point support.

[0014] In addition, the sliding plate is parallel to and slidably adapted to the first guide plate, the bottom of the mounting plate is fixedly connected to the sliding plate, and the roller rotates and adapts to the top of the mounting plate, realizing the smooth movement and precise positioning of the roller, and reducing the frictional resistance and jamming phenomenon when the roller moves.

[0015] Furthermore, this invention achieves uniform adjustment of the pipe support height by having two rollers rise or fall synchronously, thus maintaining the pipe horizontally or at a preset slope.

[0016] In addition to the aforementioned beneficial effects, the two sides of the first guide plate are respectively adapted to guide the two guide grooves, and the two limiting wheels are respectively rotatably set in the two guide grooves and rolled to adapt to the two sides of the first guide plate, realizing precise guidance and lateral limiting when the idler moves, preventing the idler from deviating from the moving path, and solving the technical problems of lateral deviation, swaying or unstable guidance that may occur during the movement of the idler.

[0017] In addition, during the rotation of the drive screw, the two idlers move closer to each other and rise simultaneously or move further apart and fall simultaneously, realizing the mechanization and synchronization of idler height adjustment, accurately controlling the pipe support height, and solving the technical problems of low efficiency, difficulty in synchronization, and easy error in the existing adjustment method.

[0018] By having the drive motor, drive screw, and limit plate move synchronously in the vertical direction, the drive system can move as a whole, avoiding interference between the drive mechanism and the idler roller. The limit plate can also prevent the rotation of the drive screw from interfering with the operation of the drive motor and other structures, which helps to maintain the consistency between the drive system and the idler roller.

[0019] Another objective of this invention is to provide a transportation system, including the inclined pipe support device mentioned above.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the transportation system of this utility model has all the advantages of the above-mentioned inclined pipe support device, which will not be elaborated here. At the same time, by setting the above-mentioned inclined pipe support device, the pipeline can be stably supported on the slope, and the height adjustment is stable and controllable, which improves the adaptability, reliability and maintenance efficiency of the pipeline transportation system, thereby solving the technical problems of the support device not adapting to terrain changes, pipeline settlement or difficulty in adjustment in inclined pipeline transportation.

For example, a connection 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, or 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 in light of the specific circumstances.

[0026] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0027] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 The inclined pipe support device provided by this utility model will now be described. The inclined pipe support device includes a support 1 and a roller 2. The support 1 includes a support body 11 and a first guide plate 12 inclinedly disposed on the support body 11. The roller 2 is rotatably disposed on the top of the support body 11 and is used to support the pipe. The axis of the roller 2 is perpendicular to the arrangement path of the pipe. The guide plate 12 is stopable and guided by the roller 2. As the roller 2 moves on the first guide plate 12, the roller 2 has a displacement component extending in the vertical direction.

[0028] Compared to existing technologies, this embodiment utilizes the cooperation between the support body 11 and the inclined first guide plate 12 with the idler roller 2. The idler roller 2 can move along the first guide plate 12 and generate a displacement component in the vertical direction during the movement. The rotating idler roller 2 can make the horizontal movement smoother by rotating itself during the inclined movement, preventing its horizontal movement from interfering with the pipeline. This achieves flexible adjustment of the support height of the idler roller 2, and can dynamically adjust the support height according to the pipeline layout requirements. This solves the technical problem of fixed support height for sloping pipelines, which is difficult to adapt to different slopes or pipeline settlement changes.

[0029] A preferred embodiment is proposed. Specifically, the support 1 further includes a second guide plate 13, and two idler rollers 2 are arranged at intervals along the pipeline's layout path. Along the pipeline's layout path, the second guide plate 13 and the first guide plate 12 are positioned opposite each other on the top of the support body 11 to form a stable triangular or trapezoidal structure. The two idler rollers 2 are respectively guided and adapted to the opposite outer surfaces of the first guide plate 12 and the second guide plate 13. This arrangement, with the second guide plate 13 and the first guide plate 12 positioned opposite each other on the top of the support body 11, forms a stable triangular or trapezoidal structure, providing stable support for the installation of the idler rollers 2. This achieves bidirectional support and coordinated force distribution for the pipeline by the two idler rollers 2, enhancing the stability and load-bearing capacity of the support device, and solving the technical problems of pipeline swaying, uneven stress distribution, or insufficient stability that may result from single-point support.

[0030] Preferably, the stable structure formed by the two guide plates is an isosceles triangle or an isosceles trapezoid, so that the stable structure composed of the two guide plates and the support 1 is more robust, and the two idlers 2 can move synchronously relative to each other or towards each other.

[0031] A preferred embodiment is proposed. Specifically, the inclined pipe support device further includes an installation mechanism 3. The installation mechanism 3 includes a sliding plate 31 and an installation plate 32. The sliding plate 31 is parallel to and slidably adapted to the first guide plate 12. The idler roller 2 is rotatably adapted to the top of the installation plate 32, and the bottom of the installation plate 32 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 31. In this embodiment, the sliding plate 31 is parallel to and slidably adapted to the first guide plate 12, the bottom of the installation plate 32 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 31, and the idler roller 2 is rotatably adapted to the top of the installation plate 32, which realizes the smooth movement and precise positioning of the idler roller 2, and reduces the frictional resistance and jamming phenomenon when the idler roller 2 moves.

[0032] A preferred implementation method is proposed, in which the two idlers 2 rise or fall synchronously to achieve uniform adjustment of the pipe support height and maintain the pipe horizontal or at a preset slope.

[0033] Based on the above embodiments, a preferred implementation is proposed. Specifically, the mounting mechanism 3 further includes two limiting wheels 33. Along the axis of the idler roller 2, two guide grooves 321 with oppositely arranged openings are respectively provided on both sides of the mounting plate 32. The two sides of the first guide plate 12 are respectively adapted to guide the two guide grooves 321. The two limiting wheels 33 are respectively rotatably disposed in the two guide grooves 321, and the two limiting wheels 33 are respectively adapted to roll with the two sides of the first guide plate 12. In this embodiment, the two sides of the first guide plate 12 are respectively adapted to guide the two guide grooves 321, and the two limiting wheels 33 are respectively rotatably disposed in the two guide grooves 321 and are adapted to roll with the two sides of the first guide plate 12. This achieves precise guidance and lateral limiting when the idler roller 2 moves, prevents the idler roller 2 from deviating from the moving path, and solves the technical problems of lateral deviation, swaying, or unstable guidance that may occur during the movement of the idler roller 2.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting mechanism 3 further includes a positioning plate 34, which is located on the side of the first guide plate 12 away from the mounting plate 32, and a guide groove 321 is formed between the positioning plate 34 and the mounting plate 32. With this configuration, this embodiment achieves clamping and fixing of the first guide plate 12, enhances the rigidity and durability of the guide structure, and prevents the guide groove 321 from deforming, wearing, or loosening due to long-term load or vibration.

[0035] In addition to the feasible implementations described above, a preferred implementation is proposed to drive the two idler rollers 2 to move. Specifically, the inclined pipe support device further includes a drive mechanism 4. The drive mechanism 4 includes a drive screw 41 and a first nut 42 and a second nut 43 that are threadedly adapted to the drive screw 41. The drive screw 41 is rotatably mounted on the support body 11 and is located below the idler rollers 2. The axis of the drive screw 41 is perpendicular to the axis of the idler rollers 2. The first nut 42 and the second nut 43 are respectively connected to the two idler rollers 2. As the drive screw 41 rotates, the two idler rollers 2 move closer to each other and rise simultaneously, or move away from each other and fall simultaneously.

[0036] It should be noted that the two sections of threads on the drive screw 41 that are respectively adapted to the threads of the two nuts have opposite directions of rotation, so as to drive the first nut 42 and the second nut 43 to move closer or further apart from each other.

[0037] Compared with existing technologies, during the rotation of the drive screw, the two idlers 2 move closer to each other and rise simultaneously or move further away from each other and fall simultaneously, realizing the mechanization and synchronization of the height adjustment of the idlers 2, accurately controlling the pipe support height, and solving the technical problems of low efficiency, difficulty in synchronization and easy error in existing adjustment methods.

[0038] Based on the above, more preferably, the drive mechanism 4 also includes a drive motor 44 and a limiting plate 45. The limiting plate 45 is movably inserted into the bracket body 11 in the vertical direction. The drive screw 41 is rotatably adapted to the limiting plate 45. The drive motor 44 is mounted on the limiting plate 45 so that the drive screw 41 rotates. The drive motor 44, the drive screw 41 and the limiting plate 45 move synchronously in the vertical direction.

[0039] In this embodiment, the drive motor 44, drive screw 41 and limiting plate 45 move synchronously in the vertical direction, and the drive system can move as a whole to avoid interference between the drive mechanism 4 and the idler roller 2. The limiting plate 45 can prevent the rotation of the drive screw 41 and the operation of the drive motor 44 and other structures from interfering with each other, which is conducive to maintaining the consistency of the movement of the drive system and the idler roller 2.

[0040] Based on the same inventive concept, another objective of this utility model is to propose a transportation system that includes the inclined pipe support device mentioned above.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the transportation system of this utility model has all the advantages of the above-mentioned inclined pipe support device, which will not be elaborated here. At the same time, by setting the above-mentioned inclined pipe support device, the pipeline can be stably supported on the slope, and the height adjustment is stable and controllable, which improves the adaptability, reliability and maintenance efficiency of the pipeline transportation system, thereby solving the technical problems of the support device not adapting to terrain changes, pipeline settlement or difficulty in adjustment in inclined pipeline transportation.

[0042] In summary, the inclined pipeline support device provided in this application successfully achieves flexible and dynamic adjustment of the pipeline support height through the innovative cooperation of the inclined guide plate and the idler roller 2. In short, the idler roller 2 can move along the inclined first guide plate 12. While moving horizontally, it inevitably generates a vertical displacement component, thus accurately converting the horizontal displacement into a change in support height. This effectively solves the technical problem that traditional fixed supports cannot adapt to pipeline settlement, thermal expansion and contraction, or fine-tuning of the slope. Furthermore, by setting up a stable triangular or trapezoidal structure with opposing second guide plates 13, and working in conjunction with the two idler rollers 2, single-point support is optimized into bidirectional stable support, greatly enhancing the overall rigidity and anti-sway capability of the device, effectively avoiding the risk of uneven pipeline stress and lateral instability. Its core drive mechanism 4 uses a drive screw 41 to synchronously drive two nuts, causing the two idler rollers 2 to move towards or away from each other, thus maintaining the stability of the pipeline posture during lifting and lowering. This solves the industry pain points of low efficiency, difficulty in synchronization, and easy bending and deformation of pipelines caused by manual or hydraulic adjustments using jacks or hydraulic systems. Furthermore, the sliding plate 31, guide groove 321, and limiting wheel 33 in the installation mechanism 3 form a precise rolling guide system, ensuring smooth, jam-free, and accurate positioning of the idler roller 2. Simultaneously, the design of the follow-up drive motor 44 avoids mechanical interference and extends service life. In summary, this device integrates height adjustment, synchronous lifting, stable support, and mechanized operation, significantly improving the adaptability, safety, and maintenance efficiency of the inclined pipeline transportation system.

[0043] 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, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
