Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thermal insulation pipe transportation technology, and in particular to a circular transportation device for thermal insulation pipes. Background Technology

[0002] Insulated pipes are widely used in the transportation of fluids such as hot water, steam, and refrigerants. Their core function is to reduce heat loss or absorption through the insulation layer to maintain the temperature stability of the fluid, thereby improving energy efficiency and reducing energy consumption. Insulated pipes typically consist of a working pipe and an external insulation material layer. The insulation material is a key component of the insulated pipe, and its performance directly affects the insulation effect and service life of the pipe.

[0003] Currently, polyurethane is widely used as a thermal insulation material in the production of insulated pipes. Polyurethane has a low thermal conductivity and good environmental performance, effectively preventing heat transfer and allowing insulated pipes to maintain good insulation performance in various environments. However, common insulation materials such as polyurethane have relatively low hardness, which poses a significant challenge during the transportation of insulated pipes.

[0004] In actual transportation, insulated pipes are mostly transported by stacking and bundling. While this method improves convenience and loading efficiency to some extent, it also presents several problems. Because the insulation layer of the pipes has relatively low hardness, it is prone to rolling during stacking and bundling, inevitably leading to friction between the pipes and between the pipes and the transport vehicle. This friction can damage the insulation layer, causing surface wear, localized deformation, or even cracking. Once the insulation layer is damaged, the insulation performance of the pipe will significantly decrease, not only increasing heat loss during transport but also potentially causing other safety hazards, such as pipe rupture due to thermal expansion. Furthermore, damage to the insulation layer shortens the lifespan of the insulated pipes, increases replacement and repair costs, and causes unnecessary economic losses for users. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a rounding transport device for insulation pipes, which solves the defect in the prior art that insulation pipes are prone to mutual friction during transportation, resulting in damage to the external insulation layer and affecting the performance of the insulation pipe. It realizes support and fixation from the relatively hard interior of the insulation pipe, without putting stress on the external insulation material, and can protect the insulation layer during transportation to ensure that the insulation material is not damaged.

[0006] This utility model provides a circular transport device for insulated pipes, comprising: Fixed base; A steel bracket is connected to the fixed base, and the steel bracket includes multiple transverse support members, which are spaced apart from each other. Multiple supporting mechanisms are spaced apart on the transverse support member. Each supporting mechanism includes multiple elastic support members, which are evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the transverse support member. The supporting mechanism has a tube-penetrating state and a supporting state. When the supporting mechanism is in the tube-penetrating state, the elastic support members contract toward the axis of the transverse support member. When the supporting mechanism is in the supporting state, the elastic support members elastically abut against the inner wall of the insulation pipe. Multiple linkage adjustment mechanisms are provided, each corresponding to one of the transverse support components. Each linkage adjustment mechanism is connected to a circular support mechanism on the same transverse support component. The linkage adjustment mechanism is used to control the circular support mechanism to switch between the tube insertion state and the support state.

[0007] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for a thermal insulation pipe is provided, wherein the elastic support member includes an elastic element and a rubber pad layer. One end of the elastic element along its own axis is connected to the transverse support member, and the rubber pad layer is connected to the other end of the elastic element along its own axis. The rubber pad layer is used to abut against the inner wall of the thermal insulation pipe.

[0008] According to the present invention, a circular conveying device for a thermal insulation pipe is provided, wherein the rubber pad layer is arranged in an arc shape on the side opposite to the elastic element.

[0009] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for insulated pipe is provided, wherein the steel support further includes a vertical support member, the bottom end of the vertical support member is connected to the fixed base, and a plurality of the horizontal support members are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction on the vertical support member.

[0010] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for a thermal insulation pipe is provided. The linkage adjustment mechanism includes multiple traction ropes, multiple fixed pulleys, and an electric rotating device. The multiple electric rotating devices are disposed on the vertical support member. The fixed pulleys are disposed inside the horizontal support member and are positioned corresponding to the connection position between the elastic element and the horizontal support member. One end of the traction rope is connected to the rubber pad layer, and the other end passes through the elastic element and the horizontal support member, then wraps around the fixed pulley and extends along the length direction of the horizontal support member and is connected to the electric rotating device.

[0011] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for insulated pipe is provided, which further includes a pipe connector. The number of vertical support members is two, and the two vertical support members are connected to the two ends of the horizontal support member. The pipe connector is provided on the first or last end of the horizontal support member near itself.

[0012] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for a thermal insulation pipe is provided, wherein the cross-section of the transverse support member is square, and one circular support mechanism includes four elastic support members, which are respectively disposed on the four outer wall surfaces of the transverse support member at the same axial position in the circumferential direction.

[0013] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for insulated pipe is provided, wherein the distance between two adjacent transverse support members is 300mm~500mm.

[0014] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for insulated pipes is provided, wherein the distance between two adjacent elastic support members on the same transverse support member is 500mm~800mm.

[0015] According to the present invention, a circular transport device for insulation pipe is provided, wherein the fixed base is provided with a plurality of fixed holes along its circumference, and the fixed base is connected and fixed to the transport vehicle after being fastened by fasteners passing through the fixed holes.

[0016] The circular support transport device provided by this utility model allows the circular support mechanism to have two states: a tube-insertion state and a support state. In the tube-insertion state, the elastic support member contracts towards the axis of the transverse support member, allowing the insulation tube to be smoothly inserted into the device. When in the support state, the elastic support member elastically abuts against the inner wall of the insulation tube. Thus, by abutting against the inner wall of the insulation tube in the support state, the insulation tube is supported and fixed from the inside, utilizing the relatively rigid internal structure of the insulation tube to ensure stability. Furthermore, because the elastic support member of the circular support mechanism elastically abuts against the inner wall of the insulation tube, the point of application of the supporting force is inside the insulation tube. Unlike traditional transport methods where the forces such as mutual compression between insulation tubes and friction with the transport vehicle are applied to the outside of the insulation tube, the support method of this device avoids external forces acting directly on the insulation layer, thereby ensuring that the external insulation material is not affected by forces and protecting the insulation layer during transport, ensuring that the insulation material is not damaged.

[0028] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 4 The present invention will provide a detailed description of a circular transport device for insulated pipes through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0029] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a circular conveying device 10 for insulated pipes includes a fixed base 100, a steel support 200, multiple circular conveying mechanisms 300, and multiple linkage adjustment mechanisms 400. The steel support 200 is connected to the fixed base 100 and includes multiple transverse support members 210, which are spaced apart from each other. Multiple circular conveying mechanisms 300 are spaced apart on the transverse support members 210. Each circular conveying mechanism 300 includes multiple elastic support members 310, which are evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the transverse support members 210. Each circular conveying mechanism 300 has a pipe-through function. In the tube-penetrating state, the elastic support member 310 retracts towards the axis of the transverse support member 210 when the supporting mechanism 300 is in the supporting state. In the supporting state, the elastic support member 310 elastically abuts against the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20. The linkage adjustment mechanism 400 is configured one-to-one with the transverse support member 210. The linkage adjustment mechanism 400 is connected to the supporting mechanism 300 on the same transverse support member 210. The linkage adjustment mechanism 400 is used to control the switching of the supporting mechanism 300 between the tube-penetrating state and the supporting state.

[0030] The fixed base 100 serves as the basic support component of the entire device, providing stable support for the entire circular transport device. This ensures that the device can be firmly placed on the transport device or other support surfaces during transportation and use, preventing the device from shaking or tipping over, and guaranteeing the normal operation and safety of the device.

[0031] The steel bracket 200 is connected to the fixed base 100 and serves to bear and support other components. It is the main structural frame of the entire device and provides an installation position for the round support mechanism 300 and the linkage adjustment mechanism 400, so that the components can be combined in an orderly manner to jointly realize the function of round transporting the insulation pipe 20.

[0032] Multiple transverse support members 210 are part of the steel bracket 200. The multiple transverse support members 210 are spaced apart from each other, providing an installation base for the supporting mechanism 300.

[0033] Multiple rounding mechanisms 300 are spaced apart on the transverse support member 210, which can perform rounding operation on the insulation pipe 20 to ensure that the insulation pipe 20 remains round during transportation, prevent the insulation pipe 20 from deforming, and ensure the quality and normal use of the insulation pipe 20.

[0034] Multiple elastic support members 310 are evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the transverse support member 210. When the rounding mechanism 300 is in the supporting state, the elastic support members 310 are elastically abutting against the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20, using their elastic force to round and fix the insulation pipe 20, so that the insulation pipe 20 maintains a stable shape during transportation; when the rounding mechanism 300 is in the pipe insertion state, the elastic support members 310 contract towards the axis of the transverse support member 210, making it easy for the insulation pipe 20 to be smoothly inserted into or removed from the device, which is convenient for operation.

[0035] The supporting mechanism 300 has two states: a tube-insertion state and a support state. These two states enable the device to easily complete the installation and transportation of the insulation pipe 20. The tube-insertion state facilitates the insertion of the insulation pipe 20 into the device, while the support state effectively supports and fixes the insulation pipe 20 during transportation, meeting different needs during the transportation of the insulation pipe 20 and improving the practicality and ease of operation of the device.

[0036] The linkage adjustment mechanism 400 is configured one-to-one with the transverse support member 210 and is connected to the supporting mechanism 300 on the same transverse support member 210. Its main function is to control the switching of the supporting mechanism 300 between the pipe-inserting state and the supporting state. Through the linkage adjustment mechanism 400, the state changes of the supporting mechanism 300 can be operated centrally and conveniently, realizing automated or semi-automated control, improving operating efficiency, and reducing the difficulty and labor intensity of manual operation.

[0037] This application provides a support mechanism 300 with both a through-tube state and a support state. In the through-tube state, the elastic support member 310 contracts towards the axis of the transverse support member 210, allowing the insulation tube 20 to be smoothly inserted into the device. In the support state, the elastic support member 310 elastically abuts against the inner wall of the insulation tube 20. Thus, by abutting against the inner wall of the insulation tube 20 in the support state, the insulation tube 20 is supported and fixed from within, utilizing the relatively rigid internal structure of the insulation tube 20 to ensure stability. Furthermore, since the elastic support member 310 of the support mechanism 300 elastically abuts against the inner wall of the insulation tube 20, the point of application of its supporting force is inside the insulation tube 20. Unlike traditional transportation methods where the insulation pipes 20 are squeezed against each other and rubbed against the transport vehicle, the support method of this device avoids the external forces acting directly on the insulation layer. This ensures that the external insulation material is not affected by the forces, protects the insulation layer during transportation, and ensures that the insulation material is not damaged.

[0038] Reference Figures 2 to 4According to the present invention, a circular transport device 10 for a thermal insulation pipe is provided. The elastic support member 310 includes an elastic element 311 and a rubber pad 312. One end of the elastic element 311 along its own axis is connected to the transverse support member 210, and the rubber pad 312 is connected to the other end of the elastic element 311 along its own axis. The rubber pad 312 is used to abut against the inner wall of the thermal insulation pipe 20.

[0039] Understandably, when the supporting mechanism 300 is in the supported state, the elastic element 311 can generate a radially outward force based on its own elastic properties, which is transmitted to the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20 through the rubber pad layer 312, thereby achieving stable support for the insulation pipe 20. Simultaneously, the elastic element 311 has good deformation capacity, allowing for easy switching between the supported state and the pipe-penetrating state. Optionally, the elastic element 311 can be a spring.

[0040] The rubber pad 312 is in direct contact with the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20. Its softness and elasticity effectively protect the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20, preventing scratches or damage caused by direct contact with rigid support components. Furthermore, the softness of the rubber pad 312 allows it to fit tightly against the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20, increasing the contact area and thus improving the stability of the support.

[0041] Reference Figures 2 to 4 According to the present invention, a circular conveying device 10 for a heat-insulating pipe is provided, wherein the rubber pad 312 is arranged in an arc shape on the side opposite to the elastic member 311.

[0042] Understandably, the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20 is typically circular, and the rubber pad 312, on the side facing away from the elastic element 311, is designed to be curved, allowing it to better match the circular contour of the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20. This fitting design maximizes the contact area between the rubber pad 312 and the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20. Compared to flat surfaces or other irregular shapes, the curved surface can fit more tightly against the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20, reducing the presence of gaps.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 According to the present invention, a circular transport device 10 for a thermal insulation pipe is provided. The steel support 200 further includes a vertical support member 220. The bottom end of the vertical support member 220 is connected to the fixed base 100. A plurality of horizontal support members 210 are arranged vertically at intervals on the vertical support member 220.

[0044] Understandably, connecting the bottom end of the vertical support member 220 to the fixed base 100 allows the entire steel support 200 to stand stably on the ground or other supporting surface. The fixed base 100 typically has a large contact area, which can distribute the weight and pressure borne by the steel support 200, ensuring that the circular transport device will not tip over due to instability during placement and use, thus providing a reliable support foundation for the entire device.

[0045] Because multiple horizontal support members 210 are arranged at vertical intervals, and each horizontal support member 210 can be equipped with a support mechanism 300 to support one insulation pipe 20, layered transportation of multiple insulation pipes 20 can be achieved within a limited transportation space. This greatly improves transportation efficiency and reduces transportation costs, making it particularly suitable for large-scale transportation of insulation pipes 20.

[0046] Reference Figure 2 According to the present invention, a circular transport device 10 for a thermal insulation pipe is provided. The linkage adjustment mechanism 400 includes multiple traction ropes 410, multiple fixed pulleys 420, and an electric rotating device 430. The multiple electric rotating devices 430 are disposed on the vertical support member 220. The fixed pulleys 420 are disposed inside the horizontal support member 210 and are disposed at the connection position between the elastic member 311 and the horizontal support member 210. One end of the traction rope 410 is connected to the rubber pad 312, and the other end passes through the elastic member 311 and through the horizontal support member 210, then wraps around the fixed pulley 420 and extends along the length direction of the horizontal support member 210 and is connected to the electric rotating device 430.

[0047] Understandably, the electric rotating device 430 is mounted on the vertical support member 220, serving as the power source for the entire linkage adjustment mechanism 400. It can rotate according to a preset program or according to the operator's control commands, providing stable and controllable power for the winding and unwinding of the traction rope 410. By controlling the rotation direction and number of turns of the electric rotating device 430, the degree of tension or relaxation of the traction rope 410 can be precisely controlled, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the position of the rubber pad layer 312.

[0048] A fixed pulley 420 is located within the transverse support member 210, corresponding to the connection point between the elastic element 311 and the transverse support member 210. When the traction rope 410 winds around the fixed pulley 420, the direction of the force changes. This change allows the rotation of the electric rotating device 430 on the vertical support member 220 to be converted into a pulling force on the traction rope 410 along the length of the transverse support member 210, thereby pulling the rubber pad 312 towards the inner wall of the insulation pipe 20 or releasing it, thus adjusting the size of the support circle. The fixed pulley 420 serves to transmit and direct force, making the entire adjustment process smoother and more efficient.

[0049] One end of the traction rope 410 is connected to the rubber pad 312, and the other end passes through the elastic member 311 and the transverse support member 210 before winding around the set pulley 420 and connecting to the electric rotating device 430. This connection method ensures that the power generated by the electric rotating device 430 can be accurately transmitted to the rubber pad 312 through the traction rope 410. The traction rope 410 passing through the elastic member 311 utilizes the internal space of the elastic member 311, making the structure more compact. Simultaneously, the traction rope 410 passing through the transverse support member 210 ensures its stability and straightness during power transmission, reducing losses and deviations during power transmission and improving the accuracy and reliability of adjustment.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 According to the present invention, a circular transport device 10 for a thermal insulation pipe is provided, which further includes a pipe connector 500. There are two vertical support members 220, which are connected to the two ends of the horizontal support member 210. The pipe connector 500 is provided on the first or last end of the horizontal support member 210 near itself.

[0051] Understandably, the pipe connector 500 enables the detachable connection between the horizontal support member 210 and the vertical support member 220. When installing or removing the insulation pipe 20, disassembling the pipe connector 500 that connects one of the vertical support members 220 and the horizontal support member 210 allows one end of the horizontal support member 210 to detach from the vertical support member 220, thereby facilitating the installation and removal of the insulation pipe 20 from the horizontal support member 210.

[0052] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 According to the present invention, a circular transport device 10 for a heat-insulating pipe is provided, wherein the cross-section of the transverse support member 210 is square, and one circular support mechanism 300 includes four elastic support members 310, which are respectively disposed on the four outer wall surfaces of the transverse support member 210 at the same axial position in the circumferential direction.

[0053] Understandably, the four outer walls of the square cross-section are planar structures, and the included angle between adjacent walls is 90°, which can be directly used as the installation reference surface for the elastic support member 310. Compared with the circular cross-section, which requires additional welding of brackets to fix the elastic element 311, the square structure allows the elastic support member 310 to be directly fixed to the wall surface, ensuring that the four elastic elements 311 extend radially (perpendicular to the wall surface) along the transverse member, avoiding the tilting of the elastic element 311 due to unclear installation reference, and ensuring that the direction of the supporting force is accurately pointed to the center of the inner tube of the insulation pipe 20.

[0054] Four elastic support members 310 are evenly distributed on the four outer circumferential surfaces of the transverse support member 210 at the same axial position, so that when the rounding mechanism 300 acts on the rounded object, it can apply uniform force from four directions simultaneously. This ensures that the supporting force on the rounded object in the circumferential direction is balanced, thereby achieving the effect of uniform rounding.

[0055] Optionally, the spacing between two adjacent transverse support members 210 is 300mm to 500mm.

[0056] Understandably, insulation pipes 20 with different diameters require different support ranges. The 300mm~500mm spacing allows the support mechanism 300 to be flexibly adjusted according to the diameter of the insulation pipe 20, providing suitable installation and operating space for the elastic support member 310.

[0057] Optionally, the spacing between two adjacent elastic support members 310 on the same transverse support member 210 is 500mm to 800mm.

[0058] Understandably, this spacing range ensures a reasonable structural layout between adjacent lateral support members 210, providing sufficient support strength for the entire circular transport device when bearing the weight of the transported objects, such as the insulated pipe 20. If the spacing is too small, although the number of support points increases, it will increase the overall weight and cost of the device, and the overly dense structure may affect the installation and operation of other components; while a spacing of 300mm to 500mm can ensure support strength while keeping the device structure relatively lightweight and reasonable.

[0059] Reference Figure 2 According to the present invention, a circular transport device 10 for a thermal insulation pipe is provided, wherein the fixed base 100 is provided with a plurality of fixed holes 110 along its circumference, and the fixed base 100 is connected and fixed to the transport vehicle after being fastened by fasteners passing through the fixed holes 110.

[0060] Understandably, by providing multiple fixing holes 110 along its circumference on the fixed base 100 and connecting it to the transport vehicle using fasteners inserted into these holes, a multi-point connection can be formed between the fixed base 100 and the transport vehicle. Compared to a single-point connection, a multi-point connection can more evenly distribute the various forces generated by the spherical transport device during operation, such as the device's own weight and the impact force caused by bumps during transport. This greatly enhances the stability and reliability of the connection between the spherical transport device and the transport vehicle, effectively preventing the device from shaking, shifting, or even falling off during transport, thus ensuring the safety of the transport process.

[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
