Abstract

A column fixing device for frost prevention machine includes a connecting support, a pedestal, and pedestal bolt. The connecting support is composed of an anti-tilting guide barrel, a fixed pillar, a rib plate, and a connecting plate. The pedestal is composed of pedestal plates spliced to each other, and adjacent pedestal plates are connected via double-end studs. The pedestal bolt is used for fixedly connecting the connecting support with the pedestal. The pedestal is hit into soil to fix the pedestal, and then the frost prevention machine is fixed through the pedestal and the connecting support so as to overcome the difficulty and low efficiency of digging small-diameter installation deep holes required for high precision.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A column fixing device adapted for a frost prevention machine, the column fixing device comprising a connecting support, a pedestal, and a pedestal bolt, wherein the connecting support is composed of an anti-tilting guide barrel, a fixed pillar, a rib plate, and a connecting plate, the pedestal is composed of a plurality of pedestal plates spliced to each other, and adjacent pedestal plates are connected via double-end studs; the pedestal bolt is used for fixedly connecting the connecting support and the pedestal,
wherein the pedestal plates respectively have L-shaped holes at an edge thereof, an adjacent two of the pedestal plates are connected via the double-end studs through the L-shaped holes; the double-end studs will not slide out of the L-shaped holes under an upward resistance of soil when the pedestal is punched into the soil, and the double-end studs will tightly couple the adjacent two of the pedestal plates together.

2. The column fixing device for frost prevention machine according to claim 1 , wherein an outer diameter of the anti-tilting guide barrel is 0.5 millimeters-1 millimeter smaller than an inner diameter of a frost prevention machine column and an inner diameter of the fixed pillar, an outer diameter of the fixed pillar is equal to an outer diameter of the frost prevention machine column.

3. The column fixing device for frost prevention machine according to claim 2 , wherein two ends of the anti-tilting guide barrel are provided with chamfer to facilitate installation of the anti-tilting guide barrel and the frost prevention machine; the anti-tilting guide barrel is installed into the fixed pillar and into the frost prevention machine column with a length of more than 200 millimeters by plug welding, and the frost prevention machine column has more than 2 groups of plug holes.

4. The column fixing device for frost prevention machine according to claim 1 , wherein a cross-section of the pedestal is triangle, rectangle or pentagon.

5. The column fixing device for frost prevention machine according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of circular holes with different sizes are provided on the pedestal plates, when the pedestal is punched into the soil, a part of the soil inside the pedestal and another part of the soil outside the pedestal are integrated via the circular holes.

6. An installation method for the column fixing device according to claim 1 , the installation method comprising following steps:
digging a pit at a position of the frost prevention machine;
punching each of the pedestal plates into the soil 20 millimeters-30 millimeters relative to a ground after location of each of the pedestal plates is determined;
when the L-shaped holes on an upper end of each of the pedestal plates are close to the ground, installing the double-end studs at the L-shaped holes of the adjacent pedestal plates, wherein the double-end studs are movable within 20 millimeters-30 millimeters in a horizontal direction;
inserting the anti-tilting guide barrel into the fixed pillar with a length of 200 millimeters, fixing the anti-tilting guide barrel and the fixed pillar by plug welding, welding the fixed pillar at a center of the connecting plate, and welding the rib plate between the fixed pillar and the connecting plate;
fixing the connecting support on the pedestal by the pedestal bolt;
filling up the pit with the soil to level the ground surrounding thereof; and
sleeving the frost prevention machine column on the anti-tilting guide barrel, and fixing the frost prevention machine column and the anti-tilting guide barrel by plug welding.
