Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of polishing tool technology, and specifically relates to a polishing tool for the inner wall of a round tube. Background Technology

[0002] In the industrial manufacturing sector, circular tubes, as key connection and conveying devices, are widely used in various industries such as petrochemicals, high-voltage power, and water conservancy. The quality of their inner walls directly determines the core performance and service life of the products. Among these factors, the surface roughness of the inner wall of a circular tube has a significant impact on conveying efficiency, media purity, and corrosion resistance. Taking high-voltage power pipes as an example, their inner walls must meet the standard of "absolute smoothness." If there are uneven marks or dents, they can easily cause point discharge accidents under high-voltage environments, threatening the safe operation of the power system.

[0003] However, the current mainstream manual polishing methods in the industry have insurmountable drawbacks: for round pipes with small diameters or long lengths, workers' arms or conventional tools cannot reach the middle section of the pipe, creating obvious blind spots for polishing. In the petrochemical industry, there have been numerous incidents where crude oil and chemical raw materials have been contaminated due to incomplete rust and scale removal from the inner walls of the middle section of the pipeline, resulting in not only economic losses but also increased subsequent treatment costs. Furthermore, manual polishing relies on the operator's experience, making it difficult to control the polishing force and uniformity, easily leading to localized over-polishing or incomplete polishing, further affecting the quality stability of the inner wall of the round pipe.

[0004] With the increasing demands for precision in the industrial sector, traditional manual grinding methods can no longer meet the needs of efficient and high-quality production. Developing a grinding tool for the inner wall of round tubes that can eliminate grinding blind spots and ensure grinding uniformity has become an urgent need for the current industry development.

It includes a driving frame 21. One end of the driving frame 21 is connected to the fixing device 1 through several feet 22. The center of the driving frame 21 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the grinding rod 31. The grinding rod 31 is threaded through the threaded hole. When the grinding rod 31 rotates, it can move axially along the threaded hole to achieve grinding.

[0033] When grinding the inner wall of a round tube, the fixing device 1 is installed at both ends of the round tube. After connecting the grinding device 3 and the driving device 2 into a whole, the driving device 2 is connected to the fixing device 1 on one side, so that the sandpaper or scouring pad is pressed against the inner wall of the round tube. The driving mechanism such as an electric drill is connected to the internal hexagonal groove of the end of the grinding rod 31 with external thread.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the drive frame 21 is provided with a plurality of blow pipes 23. The air inlet of the blow pipe 23 is connected to the air compressor, and the air outlet of the blow pipe 23 is aligned with the inner wall of the round pipe to blow away the rust stains that have been ground off inside the round pipe. In some embodiments, the airflow blown out by the plurality of blow pipes 23 enters the interior of the round pipe in a spiral state, which further enhances the blowing effect of the blow pipes 23.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, multiple connecting rods 33 are arranged in parallel, with one end of each connecting rod 33 hinged to a grinding rod 31 and the other end of each connecting rod 33 hinged to a grinding seat 32. An adjustment device is provided on the grinding rod 31 to adjust the distance between the grinding seat 32 and the grinding rod 31 to accommodate round tubes of different inner diameters.

An adjusting nut 37 is threaded onto the grinding rod 31, and the adjusting nut 37 abuts against the sliding sleeve 35.

[0041] By rotating the adjusting nut 37, the position of the sliding sleeve 35 on the grinding rod 31 is adjusted. When the sliding sleeve 35 moves along the axial direction of the grinding rod 31, the push rod 34 pushes and pulls the connecting rod 33 to rotate around the hinge point at the lower end of the connecting rod 33, thereby driving the grinding seat 32 to move closer to or further away from the grinding rod 31, thus realizing the adjustment of the position of the grinding seat 32.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, a spring 36 is sleeved on the outside of the grinding rod 31. One end of the spring 36 abuts against the sliding sleeve 35, and the other end of the spring 36 abuts against the adjusting nut 37. After the grinding device 3 is installed inside the round tube, the spring 36 is in a compressed state. The compressed spring 36 generates a constant preload on the sliding sleeve 35, so that the grinding seat 32 generates stable pressure on the inner wall of the round tube. By tightening or loosening the adjusting nut 37, the grinding force of the grinding device 3 on the inner wall of the round tube can be easily adjusted.

[0043] like Figure 4As shown, it also includes a support frame 4 for supporting the end of the grinding rod 31. The support frame 4 includes a support plate 41. The end of the grinding rod 31 is rotatably mounted on the support plate 41 via a bearing. Both ends of the support plate 41 are provided with threaded sleeves 42. The threaded sleeves 42 are internally threaded with support legs 43. The bottom of the support legs 43 is provided with casters 44.

[0044] The end of the grinding rod 31 is rotatably mounted on the support plate 41 via a bearing, which enables the grinding rod 31 to maintain a stable axial position during the rotational grinding process, reducing the shaking and offset caused by rotation and improving the stability of the grinding device 3 during grinding.

[0045] The above content is merely an example and illustration of the structure of this utility model.
