| 摘要 |
The present invention concerns a pipe laying machine for laying a pipe (C) in a trench (T), comprising a first self-propelled chassis (10) on which a driver's cab (1 1) and a powertrain (12) are located, a beam (20) connected at a first end (20a) to said chassis (10) and which extends laterally therefrom, a second moving chassis (30) connected at a second end (20b) of said beam (20) and a guiding and supporting element (40) of a pipe, sliding on said beam (20) toward and away from said self-propelled chassis (10), in which said self- propelled chassis (10) can travel on a track (P) at the edge of said trench (T), said moving chassis (30) can travel on the bottom of said trench (T), and said guiding and supporting element (40) can translate to carry the pipe (C) to said trench (T) so that by moving the machine forward along a direction of forward movement (A) the cantilevered portion of pipe is laid on the bottom of the trench. The invention also relates to the related method for laying a pipe with a pipe laying machine described above. |
