Device for fixing pipes and lines
A device for fixing pipes, in particular in the field of shipbuilding and offshore platforms, includes at least one clamp which includes first and second clamp parts, each having a recess which, when assembled, form a passage for receiving a pipe, in which passage at least three longitudinal ribs, which extend in the longitudinal direction of the pipe, are arranged, at a distance from one another, to support a received pipe. Two bracing rails are arranged; the first clamp part can be adjustably fixed to the first bracing rail and the second clamp part can be adjustably fixed to the second bracing rail; and the two bracing rails are connected opposite one another by braces for bracing the bracing rails, as a result of which the first and second clamp parts arranged opposite one another can be braced against a pipe received by the clamp.
1 . A device for fastening pipes in place comprising at least one clamp that comprises a first clamp part and a second clamp part,
wherein the clamp parts each have a recess,
wherein the recesses, when assembled, form a passage for holding a pipe,
wherein at least three longitudinal ribs are arranged in the passage, at a distance from one another, for making contact with a held pipe, the ribs extending in the longitudinal direction of the held pipe,
wherein two bracing rails are arranged,
wherein the first clamp part of the at least one clamp is adjustably fixed in place on the first bracing rail, and the second clamp part of the at least one clamp is adjustably fixed in place on the second bracing rail,
wherein the two bracing rails are connected opposite one another by bracing means, by which the two bracing rails are braced relative to one another, and thereby the first and second clamp parts of the at least one clamp that are arranged opposite one another are braced against the held pipe held by the at least one clamp,
wherein the two bracing rails are each provided with perforations, wherein the first and second clamp parts, in each instance, have at least one fastening element that engages behind one of the perforations, penetrating through the perforation, and
wherein the clamp parts have two fastening elements that are configured in the form of spring tongues that lie opposite one another and have engagement projections, wherein the engagement projections each extend in the direction facing away from the opposite spring tongue, and engage behind the corresponding perforation.
2 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein at least two of the perforations are configured to be rectangular and are arranged uniformly at a distance from and parallel to one another, in the corresponding bracing rail.
3 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the clamp parts have a guide dome between the two fastening parts, wherein the guide dome projects through the corresponding perforation.
4 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the clamping rails have an inner curvature that is curved about their longitudinal axis, wherein the clamp parts of the at least one clamp have an outer curvature, with which the clamp parts lie against the inner curvature of a bracing rail.
5 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second clamp parts are configured to be identical.
6 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein at least all of the perforations are configured to be rectangular and are arranged uniformly at a distance from and parallel to one another, in the corresponding bracing rail.
7 . The device according to claim 3 , wherein the guide dome is cylindrical.
8 . The device according to claim 4 , wherein the inner curvature has an arc-shaped cross-section, and the outer curvature is in the form of a spherical section.
9 . A device for fastening pipes in place comprising at least one clamp that comprises a first clamp part and a second clamp part,
wherein the clamp parts each have a recess,
wherein the recesses, when assembled, form a passage for holding a pipe,
wherein at least three longitudinal ribs are arranged in the passage, at a distance from one another, for making contact with a held pipe, the ribs extending in the longitudinal direction of the held pipe,
wherein two bracing rails are arranged,
wherein the first clamp part of the at least one clamp is adjustably fixed in place on the first bracing rail, and the second clamp part of the at least one clamp is adjustably fixed in place on the second bracing rail,
wherein the two bracing rails are connected opposite one another by bracing means, by which the two bracing rails are braced relative to one another, and thereby the first and second clamp parts of the at least one clamp that are arranged opposite one another are braced against the held pipe held by the at least one clamp,
wherein the clamping means comprise at least two tensioning anchors, each of which is guided through a perforation of the two bracing rails, as well as through a spacer block arranged between the bracing rails,
wherein the spacer block comprises a first block piece and a second block piece, wherein the first block piece is fastened to the first bracing rail and the second block piece is fastened to the second bracing rail, wherein the block pieces each have at least one fastening element that engages behind one of the perforations of the bracing rail, in each instance, passing through this perforation, and
wherein the block pieces have two fastening elements that are configured in the form of spring tongues arranged opposite one another and provided with engagement projections, wherein the engagement projections extend, in each instance, in the direction facing away from the opposite spring tongue, and engage behind the perforation, in each instance.
10 . The device according to claim 9 , wherein each of the at least two tensioning anchors comprises a threaded rod onto which a nut is screwed for tensioning the bracing rails relative to one another.
11 . The device according to claim 9 , wherein the block pieces of each spacer block have an outer curvature with which the block pieces lie against the inner curvature of a bracing rail.
12 . The device according to claim 9 , wherein at least one of the two block pieces of a spacer block has at least one engagement element, by which the at least one of the two block pieces is connected, with shape fit, with the other block piece.
13 . The device according to claim 12 , wherein the block pieces of a spacer block are configured identically.
14 . The device according to claim 10 , wherein the nut is a hex flange nut.
15 . The device according to claim 9 , wherein both of the two block pieces of a spacer block have at least one engagement element, by which the block pieces are connected, with shape fit, with each other.
