Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0020] It should be noted that all directional indications in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0021] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixing" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited.

[0022] Furthermore, in this utility model, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0023] In related technologies, the piping system is fixed by welding a pipe system mounting bracket to a steel beam, and then firmly securing the piping to the bracket using pipe clamps. This method can, to a certain extent, meet the basic fixing requirements of the piping system, ensuring that the system does not experience significant shaking or displacement during normal operation and guaranteeing the stability of fluid transport. However, due to design errors, construction deviations, or subsequent system upgrades, it is often necessary to adjust the position of the piping system. Since the piping is fixed to the mounting bracket, its position is completely locked, making flexible adjustment impossible according to actual needs. This poses significant difficulties when the piping system is integrated with other systems, easily leading to problems such as loose connections and fluid leakage, seriously affecting the normal operation and performance of the entire system. Furthermore, it also hinders subsequent pipeline maintenance.

[0024] Based on these technical problems, this application provides a pipeline adjustment device and a railway freight car, aiming to solve the technical problem that the position of the pipeline system cannot be adjusted.

[0025] The design concept of this application is as follows: the first hanger is slidably mounted on the support base and moves along the first and second directions; the second hanger is connected to the first hanger at an angle; the connecting component is slidably mounted on the second hanger and moves along the third direction; the connecting component is connected to the pipeline; the first, second, and third directions intersect each other, which can realize the adjustment of the pipeline in three directions, allowing the pipeline to move within a certain range in three-dimensional space, thereby achieving precise and rapid alignment of the pipeline with the matching system to complete the pipeline assembly, reducing the installation difficulty, improving the installation quality and efficiency of the pipeline, reducing the labor intensity, shortening the loading cycle, and facilitating after-sales maintenance.

[0026] Specific technical solutions will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are not necessarily drawn to scale. Similar or identical reference numerals may be used to designate the same or similar parts in different figures. The use of similar or identical reference numerals in different figures does not mean that all figures including similar or identical reference numerals constitute a single or the same embodiment. The accompanying drawings illustrate the various embodiments discussed in this application in a generalized, illustrative, and not restrictive manner.

[0027] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pipeline adjustment device according to this application embodiment includes: a support base 10, a first hanger 20, a second hanger 30, and a connecting assembly 40. The first hanger 20 is slidably disposed on the support base 10 and moves along a first direction and a second direction. The second hanger 30 is connected to the first hanger 20 at an angle. The connecting assembly 40 is slidably disposed on the second hanger 30 and moves along a third direction, and the connecting assembly 40 is connected to the pipeline 50. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction intersect each other.

[0028] Since the first hanger 20 is slidably mounted on the support base 10 and moves along the first and second directions, and the second hanger 30 is angledly connected to the first hanger 20, and the connecting assembly 40 is slidably mounted on the second hanger 30 and moves along the third direction, and the connecting assembly 40 is connected to the pipe 50, the first, second, and third directions intersect each other. Therefore, when the pipe 50 needs to be installed or repaired, the position of the first hanger 20 in the first and second directions can be adjusted by sliding the first hanger 20 on the support base 10. The position of the pipe 50 in the first and second directions is adjusted by the second hanger 30 and the connecting component 40. The connecting component 40 slides on the second hanger 30 to adjust the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction. This allows the pipe 50 to be adjusted in three directions, enabling it to move within a certain range in three-dimensional space. The pipe 50 can be precisely and quickly aligned with the matching system to complete the assembly of the pipe 50. This reduces the difficulty of installation, improves the installation quality and efficiency of the pipe 50, reduces the workload, shortens the loading cycle, and facilitates after-sales maintenance.

[0029] In some embodiments, the first direction is a relative direction, i.e., the z-direction, where the first hanger 20 and the second hoist 30 drive the pipe 50 to move vertically via the connecting assembly 40; therefore, the first direction is generally up-down. The second direction is a relative direction, i.e., the x-direction, where the first hanger 20 and the second hoist 30 drive the pipe 50 to move horizontally left-right via the connecting assembly 40; therefore, the second direction is generally left-right. The third direction is a relative direction, i.e., the y-direction, where the first hanger 20 and the second hoist 30 drive the pipe 50 to move horizontally back-and-forth via the connecting assembly 40; therefore, the third direction is generally back-and-forth.

[0030] In some embodiments, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction can be perpendicular to each other to form a spatial rectangular coordinate system.

[0031] In some embodiments, the included angle between the first hanging bracket 20 and the second hanging bracket 30 can be set from 45° to 135°. In this embodiment, the included angle between the first hanging bracket 20 and the second hanging bracket 30 is 90°, that is, the first hanging bracket 20 and the second hanging bracket 30 are set vertically, which is only used as an example and should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0032] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, in order to adjust the position of the first hanging seat 20 in the first and second directions, the support base 10 is provided with a first sliding groove 11 extending along the first direction, and the first hanging seat 20 is provided with a second sliding groove 21 extending along the second direction. The pipe adjusting device further includes a first sliding member 60. The first sliding member 60 passes through the second sliding groove 21 and is disposed within the first sliding groove 11. The first sliding member 60 is slidably disposed in the first sliding groove 11 and the second sliding groove 21.

[0033] When the position of pipe 50 needs to be adjusted in the first direction, the first sliding member 60 slides within the first slide groove 11, causing the first hanger 20 to move in the first direction. The first hanger 20 and the second lifting device 30, through the connecting assembly 40, cause pipe 50 to move in the first direction, thereby adjusting the position of pipe 50 in the first direction. When the position of pipe 50 needs to be adjusted in the second direction, the first hanger 20 is operated, causing the first sliding member 60 to slide within the second slide groove 21. The first hanger 20 and the second lifting device 30, through the connecting assembly 40, cause pipe 50 to move in the second direction, thereby adjusting the position of pipe 50 in the second direction.

[0034] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, to adjust the position of the first hanging seat 20 in the first direction and the second direction, the first sliding member 60 includes a sliding part 61 and a first connecting part 62. The sliding part 61 is slidably disposed in the first slide groove 11. The first connecting part 62 passes through the second slide groove 21 and is connected to the sliding part 61 in the first slide groove 11.

[0035] When the position of pipe 50 needs to be adjusted in the first direction, sliding part 61 slides within the first slide groove 11, causing the first hanger 20 to move in the first direction. The first hanger 20 and the second lifting device 30, through the connecting assembly 40, cause pipe 50 to move in the first direction, thereby adjusting the position of pipe 50 in the first direction. When the position of pipe 50 needs to be adjusted in the second direction, the first hanger 20 is operated, causing the first connecting part 62 to slide within the second slide groove 21. The first hanger 20 and the second lifting device 30, through the connecting assembly 40, cause pipe 50 to move in the second direction, thereby adjusting the position of pipe 50 in the second direction.

[0036] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, after the position of the pipe 50 in the first and second directions is adjusted, in order to ensure that the position of the pipe 50 in the first and second directions is determined, the first sliding member 60 further includes a first locking part 63. The first locking part 63 is movably connected to the first connecting part 62. The first hanger 20 is located between the first locking part 63 and the support base 10.

[0037] After the position of the pipe 50 in the first and second directions is adjusted, the first locking part 63 is operated. The first locking part 63 moves towards the first hanger 20 until the first locking part 63 abuts against the first hanger 20 to lock the first hanger 20, ensuring that the position of the first hanger 20 in the first and second directions is determined, so that the position of the pipe 50 in the first and second directions is determined.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first sliding member 60 may be a bolt, the sliding part 61 may be a nut of the bolt, the first connecting part 62 may be a bolt shank, and the first locking part 63 may be a nut of the bolt.

[0039] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, in order to adjust the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction, the second hanger 30 is provided with a third slide groove 31, which extends in the third direction. The pipe adjustment device also includes a second sliding member 70. The second sliding member 70 is sequentially disposed through the connecting assembly 40 and the third slide groove 31. The second sliding member 70 is slidably disposed in the third slide groove 31.

[0040] When the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction needs to be adjusted, the second sliding member 70 slides in the third sliding groove 31 to drive the connecting component 40 to move in the third direction. The connecting component 40 drives the pipe 50 to move in the third direction, so as to realize the adjustment of the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction.

[0041] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, in order to adjust the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction, the second sliding member 70 includes a limiting part 71 and a second connecting part 72. One end of the second connecting part 72 is connected to the limiting part, and the other end passes through the connecting assembly 40 and the third sliding groove 31 in sequence.

[0042] When the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction needs to be adjusted, the second connecting part 72 slides in the third slide groove 31 to drive the connecting component 40 to move in the first direction. The connecting component 40 drives the pipe 50 to move in the third direction, so as to realize the adjustment of the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction.

[0043] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, after the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction is adjusted, in order to ensure that the position of the pipe 50 in the third direction is determined, the second sliding member 70 further includes a second locking part 73. The second locking part 73 is movably connected to the second connecting part 72. The second hanger 30 is located between the first locking part 63 and the connecting assembly 40.

[0044] After the pipe 50 is adjusted to the third-party upward position, the second locking part 73 is operated. The second locking part 73 moves towards the second hanger 30 until the second locking part 73 abuts against the second hanger 70 to lock the connecting component 40, ensuring that the connecting component 40 is in the third-party upward position, so that the pipe 50 is in the third-party upward position.

[0045] In some embodiments, the second sliding member 70 may be a bolt, the limiting part 71 may be a nut of the bolt, the second connecting part 72 may be a bolt shank, and the second locking part 73 may be a nut of the bolt.

[0046] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, to connect the pipe 50 to the connecting assembly 40, the connecting assembly 40 includes a first flexible clamping member 41 and a second flexible clamping member 42. The first flexible clamping member 41 has a first groove. The second flexible clamping member 42 is detachably connected to the first flexible clamping member and has a second groove, which communicates with the first groove to form a receiving cavity for accommodating the pipe 50. For example, both the first and second grooves are arc-shaped so that they can form a circular receiving cavity, making the shape of the receiving cavity adaptable to the shape of the pipe 50.

[0047] When the pipe 50 is to be installed, the pipe 50 is placed in the first groove, and then the first flexible clamp 41 and the second flexible clamp 42 are connected so that the pipe 50 is placed in the receiving cavity formed by the first groove and the second groove. The pipe 50 is clamped by the cavity wall (i.e. the groove wall of the first groove and the second groove) to realize the connection between the pipe 50 and the connecting assembly 40.

[0048] In some embodiments, when clamping the pipe 50, the first flexible clamping member 41 and the second flexible clamping member 42 avoid applying excessive force, which could damage the pipe 50 and ensure its safety. Simultaneously, they increase friction to prevent the pipe 50 from falling out of the first flexible clamping member 41 and the second flexible clamping member 42. For example, the first flexible clamping member 41 and the second flexible clamping member 42 can be made of rubber.

[0049] In some embodiments, the second connecting portion 72 of the second sliding member 70 is sequentially passed through the first flexible clamping member 41, the second flexible clamping member 42, and the second hanging seat 30 and connected to the second locking portion 73 to realize the connection between the first flexible clamping member 41 and the second flexible clamping member 42.

[0050] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the first hanger 20 and the second hanger 30 are integrally formed. The integrally formed first hanger 20 and the second hanger 30 are installed as a whole component, eliminating the need to install two separate hangers. This reduces installation steps and time, reduces installation errors, and improves installation quality. Moreover, it can reduce the number of parts, simplify the production process, and reduce assembly costs, thereby reducing overall manufacturing costs, improving production efficiency, and reducing the cost per unit product.
