Teeth 505 are uniformly distributed on the periphery of the outer ring of the annular polishing disc 501.

The front side surface of the annular mounting plate 502 is provided with an annular sanding disc mounting groove 506 and a drive gear groove 507 which communicate with each other.

The annular polishing disk mounting groove 506 and the drive gear groove 507 are both arc-shaped grooves.

The size of the annular polishing disk mounting groove 506 is adapted to the annular polishing disk 501, and here, the size of the annular polishing disk mounting groove 506 is slightly larger than that of the annular polishing disk 501, so that the annular polishing disk 501 can be mounted.

Similarly, the size of drive gear slot 507 is compatible with the size of drive gear 504.

The annular polishing disk 501 is mounted in the annular polishing disk mounting groove 506, and the drive gear 504 is located in the drive gear groove 507.

The drive gear 504 intermeshes with the outer ring of the annular polishing disc 501. A bearing mounting member (not shown) is provided between the back surface of the annular polishing disk 501 and the surface of the annular polishing disk mounting groove 506 to enable mounting of both.

The bearing mounting members are, for example, a first annular mounting plate provided on the back side surface of the annular polishing disk 501 and a second annular mounting plate provided on the surface of the annular polishing disk mounting groove 506.

The size of the inner ring of the annular polishing disc 501 is smaller than that of the first annular mounting plate, meanwhile, the size of the first annular mounting plate is smaller than that of the second annular mounting plate, and a bearing is installed between the two annular mounting plates.

The annular polishing disk 501 is rotatably connected to the annular polishing disk mounting groove 506 through the above-described bearing.

Through above structure, do benefit to the installation that realizes annular polishing dish 501, in addition, the output shaft of the driving motor that polishes links to each other with drive gear 504, and under driving motor's drive, drive gear 504 drives annular polishing dish 501 and rotates.

The grinding drive motor and the back surface of the annular mounting plate 502 are mounted on an annular mounting plate fixing plate 503.

The annular mounting plate fixing plate 503 is a square fixing plate.

Wherein, the grinding driving motor is connected on the surface of the annular mounting plate fixing plate 503 through a motor mounting seat bolt.

Two mounting posts 508 are symmetrically arranged on the upper part of the back side surface of the annular mounting plate 502, one mounting hole 509 is arranged on the annular mounting plate fixing plate 503 corresponding to each mounting post, and each mounting post 508 is correspondingly inserted into one mounting hole 509.

The mounting of the annular mounting plate 502 is facilitated by the mounting posts 508 engaging the mounting holes 509.

The front side surface of the annular polishing disc 501 in this embodiment is a polishing surface, that is:

a large number of particles are arranged on the front side surface of the annular polishing disc 501 to polish the cement protective layer on the outer layer of the pipeline.

A plurality of grinding columns, such as grinding column 510, are provided circumferentially on the inner ring of the annular grinding disc 501.

The number of the grinding cylinders shown in fig. 20 is 6, but the number of the grinding cylinders 510 may be increased according to actual needs and grinding effects, for example, the number of the grinding cylinders is set to 8, 10 or 12, etc.

The polishing columns 510 are uniformly arranged on the inner circumference of the annular polishing disc 501.

Taking one of the polishing posts 510 as an example, each polishing post 510 is in the shape of a semicircular platform. The grinding column 510 has a plurality of grinding edges 511 formed in a bar shape on a side surface thereof, as shown in fig. 20, and the grinding column 510 is used to perform grinding of the outer wall of the pipe.

The semicircular table is obtained by cutting a circular table from a section passing through the axis of the circular table.

When the polishing surface of the annular polishing disc 501 polishes the end surface of the cement protective layer, the polishing column 510 can polish the outer wall of the pipeline, so that the pipeline is conveniently welded outside one section of the pipeline exposed in the cement protective layer.

Because this embodiment is when polishing the cement protective layer for the pipeline of cutting department has one section to expose outside the cement protective layer, has consequently saved the trouble of carrying out manual processing alone to the cement protective layer after the cutting.

In addition, the pipe polishing mechanism in this embodiment further includes a cooling unit to cool the surface of the annular polishing disc 501 during polishing, and simultaneously keep the polishing surface clean. The structure of the cooling unit is as follows:

The other ends of the two water supply pipelines are water source interfaces for receiving water sources, and a water pump is arranged on each water supply pipeline.

Before the pipeline is polished, a water source is connected, a water pump is started, and then in the polishing process, the nozzle 512 sprays water to the polishing surface of the annular polishing disc 501, so that the temperature of the polishing surface is reduced, and the cleaning of the polishing surface is guaranteed.

The approximate working process of the pipe grinding mechanism 5 in this embodiment is as follows:

firstly, the pipeline grinding mechanism in the embodiment is moved to a pipeline cutting position, so that the grinding surface of the annular grinding disc 501 faces and contacts the cutting end surfaces of the pipeline and the cement protective layer;

starting a polishing driving motor, wherein the polishing driving motor drives the annular polishing disc 501 to rotate through the driving gear 504;

in the rotation process of the annular polishing disc 501, the polishing surface of the annular polishing disc 501 can polish the cutting end surface of the cement protective layer; meanwhile, the outer wall of the pipeline is polished by the polishing column 510 arranged on the inner ring of the annular polishing disc 501;

after polishing, one section of the pipeline at the cutting position is exposed outside the cement protective layer, and welding is convenient.

The pipeline polishing mechanism 5 simultaneously polishes the pipeline and the cement protective layer, so that the time for repairing the pipeline is saved.

The structure of the pipe welding mechanism 6 in the present embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 24 to 29:

the two pipeline welding mechanisms have the same structure, and the pipeline welding mechanism 6 comprises a circular disc 601, a disc opening and closing driving unit 602, a sliding mounting seat 603, a welding gun 604, a weld joint detection sensor 605 and a disc mounting plate 606.

The circular ring-shaped disk body 601 is composed of two semicircular circular ring-shaped disk bodies 601a as shown in fig. 25. Wherein, the upper parts of the two semi-circular disc bodies 601a are hinged and mounted on the disc body mounting plate 606 together, as shown in fig. 26.

The two disk body opening and closing drive units 602 are provided, each disk body opening and closing drive unit 602 is correspondingly connected with one semicircular disk body 601a, and the disk body opening and closing drive units 602 are used for driving the corresponding semicircular disk bodies 601a to rotate.

Under the combined action of the two disc opening and closing driving units 602, the two semicircular disc bodies 601a can be simultaneously closed towards the middle to form the circular disc body 601, or the two semicircular disc bodies 601a can be simultaneously separated towards opposite directions.

When the circular disc body 601 needs to be sleeved on a pipeline to be repaired, the two semicircular disc bodies 601a are firstly opened, that is, the two semicircular disc bodies 601a are separated in opposite directions at the same time. Take a disk opening and closing driving unit 602 as an example:

the tray body opening and closing driving unit 602 includes an arc-shaped rack 602a, a gear 602b, and an opening and closing driving motor 602 c.

Wherein, the arc-shaped rack 602a is connected with the upper part of the semi-circular ring-shaped disc body 601 a.

The opening and closing drive motor 602c is fixedly mounted on the tray body mounting plate 606, as shown in fig. 27. The output shaft of the opening and closing driving motor 602c is connected to the middle of the gear 602b, and the gear 602b is engaged with the arc-shaped rack 602 a.

Through the above structural design, the semi-circular disc body 601a can be driven to rotate when the opening and closing driving motor 602c is started.

The surface of each semi-circular disk body 601a is provided with a semi-circular arc slide rail 607a, and when the two semi-circular disk bodies 601a are combined to form the circular disk body 601, the two semi-circular arc slide rails 607a are combined to form a circular arc slide rail 607.

The number of the sliding mounts 603 is two, and the two sliding mounts are all disposed on the circular arc-shaped sliding rail 607. Each sliding mount 603 is provided with a traveling drive unit 608 for driving the sliding mount 603 to move circumferentially along the circular arc-shaped sliding rail 607.

As shown in fig. 29, taking one of the sliding mounts 603 as an example:

the sliding mount 603 includes a bottom slide slot 603a and an upper mount slot 603b, and the bottom slide slot 603a has a structure adapted to the circular arc slide rail 607 so as to ensure that the bottom slide slot 603a can move along the circular arc slide rail 607.

The upper mounting groove 603b is connected to the bottom runner 603a, and functions to mount a welding gun, a sensor, and the like, which will be described below.

In addition, a motor mounting seat 603c is further provided on the slide mounting seat 603.

The motor mount 603c is connected to an outer side portion of the bottom chute 603a, and is used for mounting a travel driving motor 608a described below.

The travel drive unit 608 in this embodiment includes a travel drive motor 608a, a drive gear, a driven gear (not shown), and a travel wheel 608 b. The travel driving motor 608a is mounted on the motor mounting base 603 c.

The output shaft of the travel drive motor 608a is connected to a drive gear, which is engaged with a driven gear.

The middle part of the driven gear is fixedly connected with the middle part of the traveling wheel 608b through a transmission shaft 608 c.

The traveling wheel 608b is located in the bottom sliding groove 603a and can move along the surface of the circular arc sliding rail 607 in the circumferential direction.

When the walking drive motor 608a is operated, power can be transmitted to the walking wheel 608b through the gear transmission component (i.e. the driving gear is meshed with the driven gear), so that the walking wheel 608b can move along the surface of the circular arc sliding rail 607.

The welding torch 604 and the weld detecting sensor 605 are mounted on one of the slide mounts 603, respectively, and the welding torch 604 and the weld detecting sensor 605 are mounted in the upper mounting groove 603b of the one slide mount 603, respectively.

The upper mounting groove 603b is a rectangular mounting groove having a conventional structure.

When the circular disc body 601 is closed, the welding direction of the welding gun 604 faces to the center of the circular disc body 601, so that the welding gun 604 can effectively weld the seam of the pipeline when moving in the circumferential direction.

When the circular disc 601 is closed, the welding direction of the weld detection sensor 605 faces the center of the circular disc 601, so as to ensure that the weld detection sensor 605 can detect the weld of the pipeline when moving in the circumferential direction.

The weld detecting sensor 605 preferably performs weld quality inspection using an ultrasonic sensor.

In addition, the pipe welding mechanism includes components such as a welding power supply associated with the welding gun 604 to assist the welding gun 604 in completing the welding process. Since these components associated with the welding gun 604 are not innovative aspects of the present invention, they will not be described in detail.

The general working process of the pipe welding mechanism 6 in this embodiment is as follows:

first, under the driving of the second lifting connecting rod 9, the tray body mounting plate 606 moves from top to bottom.

When the pipeline moves to the position right above the pipeline, the disk body opening and closing driving unit 602 is started, the two semicircular disk bodies 601a are separated, and the disk body mounting plate 606 continues to descend until the pipeline to be repaired is surrounded by the two semicircular disk bodies 601 a;

the disk opening and closing driving unit 602 operates again, so that the two semicircular annular disks 601a are combined to form the annular disk 601.

The travel driving unit 608 is started and drives the corresponding sliding mount 603 to perform a circumferential movement, and at the same time, the welding gun 604 and the weld detecting sensor 605 perform a circumferential movement following the corresponding sliding mount 603.

In the moving process of the welding gun 604, the seam position of the pipeline to be repaired is uniformly welded; while the weld detection sensor 605 is moving, it can perform a weld quality check on the position of the weld welded by the welding gun 604.

After the welding is completed, the two semicircular annular disc bodies 601a are separated, and the second lifting connecting rod 9 drives the two semicircular annular disc bodies to move upwards.

It can be seen from the above process that the pipeline welding mechanism 6 has a simple structure, is convenient to operate, and has a high degree of automation. Compared with the existing manual welding mode, the welding efficiency is obviously improved, and the welding quality is effectively guaranteed.

As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the duct cement forming mechanism 7 is provided on the opening shutter 109, and when the opening shutter 109 is moved to the strip-shaped opening 105, the duct cement forming mechanism 7 is located below the duct operating station.
