[Conventional technology]

In conventional traveling sand pump equipment, the sand pump is suspended from a trolley that is tilted. A running water trough was installed, and a sand pump was used to move the trolley back and forth horizontally. The sucked up sediment is discharged into a running water trough, and then allowed to flow down the running water trough naturally to the trolley. It was configured to be transported outside.

0003 However, in the traveling sand pump equipment with this type of configuration, the water trough is inclined. Therefore, if the water trough is long, the overall height of the pump equipment will increase, and Sediment that has naturally flowed down the running water trough must be pressurized using a pressurizing device or the like, otherwise it will not be transported to another location. A separate pressurizing device is required for this purpose, making the entire device larger. There was a drawback.

0004 Therefore, a flexible hose was used to connect the trolley on which the sand pump was suspended and the ground side. At the same time, a hose winding drum is installed that rotates as the trolley moves. A traveling sand pump facility has been proposed in which the length of the ground can be adjusted.

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, in the above conventional technology, the hose winding drive is moved in accordance with the movement of the trolley. The rotating devices of the ram must be driven in synchronization, which may complicate the device or cause synchronization. There is a problem in that the hose collapses and the hose is not properly wound.

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to allow horizontal movement without increasing the size or complexity of the device. The flexible pipe connected between the trolley and the ground side can be moved smoothly without getting entangled. An object of the present invention is to provide a flexible tube support device that can provide flexible tube support.

[0007]

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the flexible tube support device according to the present invention covers a certain range. Connecting between the movable piping part of water conveyance equipment etc. that moves horizontally and the fixed piping part on the ground side.

Fixed near the piping part and fixed pipe part, flexible and parallel in a U-shape at any position A pair of flexible side plates arranged at The flexible tube is supported by the small beam.

[0008]

[Effect]

According to the above configuration, when the movable piping section and the fixed piping section are connected by a pair of flexible side plates, , the flexible side plate bends into a U-shape at a certain position, and the bending position corresponds to the horizontal movement of the movable piping section. It moves on the flexible side plate as it moves. Then, they are arranged at equal intervals between a pair of flexible side plates. When a flexible pipe is suspended from a large number of small beams, it becomes flexible when the movable piping section moves horizontally. The flexible side plate can be bent to match the bending of the pipe, allowing flexible pipes to intertwine. We can support you without any hassle.

The wheels 3 are driven by a drive device 5 on the pump truck 4, The push cart 4 reciprocates along the rail 2 in the direction of arrow A. In this pump truck 4 A pump elevating device 6 consisting of a rotating drum mechanism is installed, and this pump elevating device 6 A sand pump 7 is suspended within the sand settling basin 1. Drum of pump lifting device 6 In the center, there is a moving piping section 8 that serves as a discharge port for the sand-containing water sucked up from the sand pump 7. is installed. Therefore, the movable piping section 8 moves as the pump truck 4 moves. It moves from one end of the sand settling basin 1 to the other end. The discharge from such sand pump 7 A flexible pipe 10 is installed to send water to a fixed pipe section 9 installed near the middle part of the rail 2. I'm being kicked. This flexible pipe 10 is fixed piping along the moving direction of the pump truck 4. It is extended from the part 9 side, folded back and bent in a U-shape in the middle, and the bent tip is transferred. It is connected to the dynamic piping section 8.

[0011] In addition, the flexible pipe 10 provided between the movable piping section 8 and the fixed piping section 9 can be left as is. The flexible pipe 1 will sag due to its own weight, so when the pump truck 4 moves, the flexible pipe 1 0 may be involved. Therefore, the support plate 11 near the movable piping section 8 and the support plate 11 near the fixed piping section 9 are A flexible tube support device 20 according to this embodiment is disposed between the tube and the tube. flexible tube service The port device 20 is ladder-shaped, which allows the flexible tube 10 and the drive A power transmission cable 12 that supplies power to the device 5 and the like is supported.
