Abstract:
The disclosure discloses a fixing device adapted to fix at least one needle-shaped element (10), including: a fixing base (100) formed with at least one positioning groove (111) at a front end thereof; and a fixing mechanism (200, 300) formed with at least one pressing protrusion (210) at a front end thereof. The needle-shaped element (10) is adapted to be positioned in the positioning groove (111), and the pressing protrusion (210) is adapted to press and hold the needle-shaped element (10) in the positioning groove (111). The needle-shaped element (10) is accurately positioned in the positioning groove (111) of the fixed base (100) and reliably pressed and held by the pressing protrusion in the positioning groove (111), thereby improving positioning accuracy and reliability of the needle-shaped element (10).
Abstract:
A socket fusion jig includes a pipe saddle and coupling saddle spaced apart. Rotation of a handle causes the pipe saddle and coupling saddle to move laterally relative to one another so that the pipe held in the pipe saddle may be fused to the coupling held in the coupling saddle.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a pipe clamp intended to grasp and using a holding element (5) hold firm an elongated element (4) with at least a first (1, 1a1-2, 1b1-2) gripping element with a first longitudinal axis, and a second (2, 2a1-2 2b1-2) gripping element with a second longitudinal axis. The first and second gripping elements have a nominal position where a straight, elongated element of even thickness with a main longitudinal axis may be received in the gripping elements. In the nominal position, the first and second longitudinal axes are parallel to the main longitudinal axis. A primary gripping element is provided with a device for translating the primary gripping element orthogonally to the main longitudinal axis, and this makes it possible to hold elongated elements with varying cross sectional sizes in a well defined direction. In one embodiment, a gripping element is provided with a device for angling the gripping element from the main longitudinal axis. Thus, the pipe clamp may hold bent elements in a well defined direction. In yet another embodiment the gripping element (1, 1a1-2, 1b1-2, 2, 2a1-2 2b1-2) are designed to receive the elongated element (4) in V-shaped jaws or in a pair of V-shaped jaws. Between the pair of V-shaped jaws, the gripping element may be provided with a holding element (5) that typically prevents the elongated element (4) from rotation around its axis. The pipe clamp typically comprises a handle (6-7) for turning a boring head (8) on a drill pipe. With the longitudinal axis of the drill pipe well defined, the risk that the boring head is forced in a radial direction or that the boring head threads are damaged is minimized.
Abstract:
A first aspect of the invention provides for a fixture (100) for securing a component (102) to be drilled. The fixture (100) may comprise: a support structure (120) positioning the component (102) thereon; a template (130) substantially surrounding the component (102) configured to locate a position on the component (102) that is to be drilled, the template (130) being positioned on the support structure (120) and having at least one hole (132) therethrough; and a centering device (150) positioned on the support structure (120) configured to center the component (102) within the template (130). The invention relates also to a method for drilling a wear pad replacement hole into a transition piece (10) of a turbomachine.
