Полезная модель относится к строительству трубопроводов и может быть использована при балластировке трубопровода для обеспечения устойчивого его положения на проектных отметках, включающих участки под водой. Технический результат, достигаемый при реализации полезной модели, заключается в расширении арсенала технологических средств, используемых для балластировки трубопроводов под водой и обеспечивающих снижение трудоемкости монтажа и высокую надежность соединения. Для достижения технического результата предложено устройство для балластировки трубопроводов, включающее верхнюю (3) и нижнюю (2) железобетонные грузовые скобы, охватывающие трубопровод (1), соединенные между собой с помощью крепежных элементов. Новым является то, что крепежные элементы выполнены в виде Ш-образных фиксаторов (4) с функцией самофиксации. При этом железобетонные грузовые скобы (2, 3) имеют выступы, в которых выполнены отверстия для установки в них Ш-образных фиксаторов (4). Вертикальная часть каждого фиксатора (4) выполнена в виде стержневых стоек (5), пропущенных через отверстия в выступах верхней скобы. Горизонтальная часть фиксатора (4) выполнена с V-образной формой поперечного сечения и образована V-образно расположенными стенками (7), которые скреплены со стойками (5) фиксатора в вершине посредством сварки, а также соединены с этими стойками пружинами (8) с возможностью перемещения в сторону стоек при воздействии на V-образно расположенные стенки фиксатора. При этом V-образно расположенные стенки (7) фиксатора пропущены через прямоугольные отверстия, выполненные в выступах нижней железобетонной скобы (2) с шириной, меньшей максимальной ширины V-образной части в раскрытом положении, но большей ее минимальной ширины в сжатом состоянии. Кроме того, каждый Ш-образный фиксатор (4) снабжен расположенными на его стойках (5) ограничителями перемещения (10), которыми он зафиксирован от перемещения вниз в отверстиях выступов верхней скобы. 2 з.п. ф-лы, 4 ил.
