A pipe laying device (T) connected to the jib (F) of a transport machine and carrying the pipe to be laid (T) to tight-fit it into a laid pipe (To).
This coupling head (1) comprises a vertical axis (YY) swiveling link (11) and a horizontal axis (Z) tilting link (12). It comprises a guide rail (2) with a bearing (21) for positioning and attachment to the end of the laid pipe (To) and aligning the pipe to be laid (T) with the laid pipe (To) and a carrier (3) forming a telescopic tube (30) tight-fitted to the guide rail (2) and operating in relation to it; the carrier (3) carries the pipe to be laid (T) and tight-fitted to the laid pipe (To).
The guide rail (2) is connected to the coupling head (1) through the telescopic tube (30).
F16L 1/09 - Accessories therefor, e.g. anchors for bringing two tubular members closer to each other
F16L 1/10 - Accessories therefor, e.g. anchors for aligning
F16L 1/028 - Laying or reclaiming pipes on land, e.g. above the ground in the ground
B66C 1/02 - Load-engaging elements or devices attached to lifting, lowering, or hauling gear of cranes, or adapted for connection therewith for transmitting forces to articles or groups of articles by suction means
B66C 1/68 - Load-engaging elements or devices attached to lifting, lowering, or hauling gear of cranes, or adapted for connection therewith for transmitting forces to articles or groups of articles mounted on, or guided by, jibs
Disclosed is a device for laying mains pipes (T), connected to the boom (F) of a transport machine carrying the pipe to be laid (T) in order to fit it into a pipe (To) that is already laid. This attachment head (1) is formed by a pivoting joint (11) with a vertical axis (YY) and a tilting joint (12) with a horizontal axis (Z). The device comprises a guide rail (2) having a support (21) for positioning the guide rail on, and fastening it to, the end of the laid pipe (To), and for aligning the pipe to be laid (T) with the pipe (To) already laid, as well as a carriage (3) formed of a telescopic tube (30) fitted on the guide rail (2) and actuated with respect to same; the carriage (3) carries the pipe (T) that is to be positioned and connected to the laid pipe (To) by fitting it into said laid pipe (To). The guide rail (2) is connected to the attachment head (1) through the telescopic tube (30).
F16L 1/036 - Laying or reclaiming pipes on land, e.g. above the ground in the ground the pipes being composed of sections of short length
B25B 11/00 - Work holders or positioners not covered by groups , e.g. magnetic work holders, vacuum work holders
B25B 27/16 - Hand tools or bench devices, specially adapted for fitting together or separating parts or objects whether or not involving some deformation, not otherwise provided for for assembling objects other than by press fit or detaching same abutted flanges
B66C 1/02 - Load-engaging elements or devices attached to lifting, lowering, or hauling gear of cranes, or adapted for connection therewith for transmitting forces to articles or groups of articles by suction means
