Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of steel pipe pressure testing technology, and specifically relates to a steel pipe testing device. Background Technology

[0002] As a fundamental material in the industrial field, the dimensional accuracy (such as diameter and roundness) and mechanical properties (such as compressive strength) of steel pipes directly determine the safety and reliability of end products. For example, excessive diameter deviation in oil and gas pipelines can lead to decreased connection sealing and leakage risks; insufficient compressive strength of steel pipes used in construction may cause structural collapse. Therefore, it is necessary to use testing equipment to test the compressive strength of steel pipes before use.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent CN221405198U, which discloses a steel pipe compressive strength testing device. The device includes a base, a pressing platform and a cylinder pressing assembly on top of the base, limit mechanisms on both sides of the pressing platform, and a pipe pressing seat above the pressing platform. This application facilitates continuous pressure testing of the steel pipe's compressive strength and avoids the risk of injury from debris splashing outwards during the pressing process, thus improving safety. However, it still has the following drawbacks: the steel pipe is fixed by sleeves of fixed dimensions on both sides, which is only suitable for fixing steel pipes of one size and is inconvenient for supporting and limiting steel pipes of different diameters. Furthermore, the length of the steel pipe being tested must be within the appropriate length range on both sides of the sleeves; if the steel pipe length exceeds the appropriate range, it cannot be tested. This results in low versatility and difficulty in compatibility with multiple specifications of steel pipes. Therefore, a steel pipe testing device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a steel pipe detection device, including a box 1, a support platform 2 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the box 1, and a first laser ranging sensor 4 and a second laser ranging sensor 5 provided at the top of the inner cavity of the box 1. The first laser ranging sensor 4 corresponds to the center line of the top arc-shaped wall of the support platform 2, and the second laser ranging sensor 5 corresponds to the top wall of the lifting plate 11.

[0024] In this embodiment, the support platform 2 supports and limits the steel pipe to be stamped, preventing the steel pipe from bending during stamping. This makes it convenient to test the compressive deformation strength of the steel pipe. The first laser rangefinder 4 can detect the distance S1 between the top wall of the box 1 and the top wall of the bottom steel pipe, and the distance S2 between the top wall of the box 1 and the bottom wall of the top arc surface of the support platform 2. The undeformed diameter S3 of the steel pipe can be obtained by subtracting S1 from S2.

[0025] The distance S4 between the top wall of the box 1 and the top wall of the lifting plate 11 is detected by the second laser ranging sensor 5. The distance S5 between the top wall of the lifting plate 11 and the top wall of the bottom arc surface of the stamping plate 13 is added to obtain the distance S6 between the top wall of the box 1 and the top wall of the bottom arc surface of the stamping plate 13 during the stamping process. The diameter S7 during the stamping process of the steel pipe is obtained by subtracting S6 from S2. The values ​​of S3 and S7 are compared. When the two values ​​change, it indicates that the steel pipe is deformed at the stamping position, and the critical value of the steel pipe deformation can be obtained.

[0026] A hydraulic push rod 10 is fixedly connected to the top center of the housing 1. A lifting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic push rod 10. A second stabilizing rod 12 is fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the lifting plate 11. A stamping plate 13 is provided at the bottom of the lifting plate 11. The second stabilizing rod 12 penetrates the top wall of the housing 1. The stamping plate 13 is located directly above the top arc structure of the support platform 2. The bottom wall of the stamping plate 13 is set as an arc structure. A pressure sensor 14 is fixedly connected between the stamping plate 13 and the lifting plate 11. A third stabilizing rod 15 is fixedly connected to the top four sides of the stamping plate 13. The two ends of the pressure sensor 14 are fixedly connected to the lifting plate 11 and the stamping plate 13 respectively. The third stabilizing rod 15 penetrates the wall of the lifting plate 11.

[0027] In this embodiment, the hydraulic push rod 10 is activated to control the lifting plate 11 to move the stamping plate 13 downward through the pressure sensor 14, thereby squeezing the bottom steel pipe. The pressure sensor 14 monitors the squeezing intensity in real time. The second stabilizing rod 12 improves the stability of the lifting plate 11's lifting and lowering, and the third stabilizing rod 15 improves the transmission stability between the lifting plate 11 and the stamping plate 13. At the same time, it can improve the stability during the stamping process and prevent the steel pipe from sliding.

[0028] When the critical value of the steel pipe's deformation compressive strength is detected during the extrusion test, the instantaneous pressure detected by the pressure sensor 14 is obtained in real time, and the critical value of the steel pipe's deformation compressive strength can be obtained, which is convenient for testing.

[0029] Both sides of the hydraulic push rod 10 are equipped with cylinders 6. The output end of the cylinder 6 is connected to a pressure plate 7. The top of the pressure plate 7 is fixedly connected with a first stabilizing rod 9. The first stabilizing rod 9 penetrates the top wall of the housing 1. The pressure plate 7 is located directly above the top arc-shaped structure of the support platform 2. The bottom wall of the pressure plate 7 is set as an arc-shaped structure. The air inlet end of the cylinder 6 is connected to an air pipe 8. One end of the air pipe 8 is connected to an air pump. A three-way pipe is set in the middle of the air pipe 8. The air inlet ends of the two cylinders 6 are connected to the output end of the air pump through the air pipe 8 with the three-way pipe.

[0030] In this embodiment, the starting cylinder 6 controls the pressure plate 7 to move downward and squeeze the two sides of the bottom steel pipe, which can help fix the steel pipe. The stability of the movement of the pressure plate 7 is improved by the first stabilizing rod 9. By starting with one air pump, two cylinders 6 can be started at the same time, which is convenient for synchronous driving.

[0031] An observation window is provided on the front side of the box 1, and feed inlets 3 are provided on both sides of the box 1. The top of the support platform 2 is set with an arc-shaped structure, and the feed inlets 3 correspond to the support platform 2.

[0032] In this embodiment, the pressure testing area is protected around the perimeter during stamping to prevent fragments from flying off the steel pipe surface during the pressure test. Operators can observe through the front observation window, balancing safety and operability, and improving the effectiveness of use.

[0033] It is worth noting that the hydraulic push rod 10, cylinder 6, first laser rangefinder 4, second laser rangefinder 5, and pressure sensor 14 are all based on existing technology, and an operation panel with a processing chip is provided on one side of the housing 1, which can process and calculate the detected values. Those skilled in the art can set it according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0034] The first laser rangefinder 4 and the second laser rangefinder 5 are model ZYT-0100, and the pressure sensor 14 is model LTE-100N.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the steel pipe is horizontally fed into the support platform 2 through the feed port 3, ensuring that the axis of the steel pipe is aligned with the center line of the support platform. The cylinder 6 is activated to control the pressure plate 7 to descend and squeeze and fix the two ends of the steel pipe.

[0036] The distance S1 between the top wall of the box 1 and the topmost wall of the bottom steel pipe is detected by the first laser rangefinder 4. The original diameter S3 of the steel pipe is calculated by the internal system of the operation panel.

[0037] The hydraulic push rod 10 is activated to control the lifting plate 11 to drive the stamping plate 13 to descend, so that the stamping plate 13 squeezes the middle of the steel pipe. At the same time, the pressure sensor 14 collects the pressure value, and the second laser range sensor 5 detects and obtains the distance S4 between the top wall of the box 1 and the top wall of the lifting plate 11. Meanwhile, the internal system of the operation panel calculates the diameter S7 of the steel pipe in real time during the stamping process and compares the values ​​of S7 and S3. When the two values ​​change, it indicates that the steel pipe is deformed at the stamping position. The pressure value of the steel pipe deformation critical compressive strength value can be obtained, and the detection is completed.

[0038] Finally, the following points should be noted: In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connection, or internal connection between two components, or direct connection.

[0039] The electronic components and modules used in this utility model can all be parts that are commonly used in the market and can achieve the specific functions in this case. The specific models and sizes can be selected and adjusted according to actual needs.
