[0022] As Figures 1-5 shown, a steel pipe necking device proposed by the present invention includes a first housing 1, a second housing 2, a necking assembly 3 and an oiling assembly 4.

By pushing the pushing cylinder 34 through the telescopic mechanism 35, the plurality of necking modules 33 are contracted towards the central position, so as to perform necking treatment on the steel pipe.

[0024] Further explanation, both ends of the second housing 2 are open for the steel pipe to pass through; the oiling member 41 includes connecting cylinders 411 connected to the openings at both ends of the oiling member 41; a plurality of balls 412 are evenly rotatably connected to the connecting cylinders 411, and an oil storage sponge 413 for coating the plurality of balls 412 with lubricating oil is sleeved on the outside. When the steel pipe extends into the second housing 2, it will drive the plurality of balls 412 to roll, so that the lubricating oil contaminated on the balls 412 is evenly applied to the steel pipe. On the one hand, a lubricating film can be formed on the surface of the steel pipe to reduce the friction between the steel pipe and the necking module 33, thereby reducing the friction loss during the processing; on the other hand, it can make the contact between the steel pipe and the necking module 33 smoother, reduce the generation of surface defects, and improve the surface quality and accuracy of the processing.

[0025] Further explanation, the oil replenishing member 42 includes an oil tank 421 arranged on the inner wall of the second housing 2; an oil pipe 422 is communicated with the oil tank 421; a oil pump is arranged on the oil pipe 422, and the other end of the oil pipe 422 is inserted into the oil storage sponge 413. The oil storage sponge 413 can be replenished with lubricating oil at all times to avoid the oil storage sponge 413 from drying up.

[0026] To further illustrate, the pushing member 43 includes sleeves 431 evenly arranged on the inner wall of the shell 2; multiple sleeves 431 are slidably connected to a sliding column 432 at one end close to the oil storage sponge 413; the other ends of multiple sliding columns 432 are connected to a pushing plate 433, and the side walls are connected to a sliding rail 434; an annular sliding rail 435 is also provided on the inner wall of the shell 2; a gear ring 436 is slidably connected to the annular sliding rail 435; a plurality of gears 437 are meshingly connected to the inner side of the gear ring 436; a plurality of gears 437 are opposite to a plurality of sliding columns 432 one by one, and are all rotatably connected to the inner wall of the shell 2, one of the gears 437 is connected to the driving end of a driving mechanism 438 arranged on the shell 2; the driving mechanism 438 is a motor; an eccentric connecting column 439 is provided at one end of the gear 437 close to the sliding column 432; the connecting column 439 is slidably connected to the sliding rail 434 on the corresponding sliding column 432. The oil storage sponge 413 is pushed and squeezed by the push plate 433, and the lubricating oil stored in the oil storage sponge 413 is squeezed onto the ball 412, so that the ball 412 is covered with lubricating oil. The ball 412 can always be kept in a state of being evenly covered with lubricating oil, and the amount of lubricating oil is appropriate, without too much lubricating oil overflowing and causing lubricating oil waste, and too little lubricating oil causing insufficient lubrication.

[0027] Further, one end of the push plate 433 close to the oil storage sponge 413 is in conformity with the shape of the oil storage sponge 413. The oil storage sponge 413 can be squeezed evenly to avoid uneven amount of lubricating oil squeezed out of the oil storage sponge 413.

[0028] Further explanation, the end of the shell 2 2 away from the shell 1 1 is provided with a fixed cylinder 5; the inner side of the fixed cylinder 5 is provided with an oil wiping sponge 51 for wiping the lubricating oil on the steel pipe. After the shrinking is completed and the steel pipe exits the device, the excess lubricating oil on the steel pipe can be wiped off and the steel pipe can be cleaned to prevent the lubricating oil from contaminating other places and increasing the cleaning burden.

[0029] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when working, first insert the steel pipe into the shell 1 through the fixed cylinder 5 and the opening in the center of the shell 2 2 in sequence. When the steel pipe passes through the shell 2 2, it will drive the multiple balls 412 to rotate, so that the lubricating oil stained on the balls 412 is evenly applied to the steel pipe. When the steel pipe is inserted into the shell 1, the telescopic mechanism 35 is started to drive the push cylinder 34 to extend, and the multiple sliders 32 are pushed, so that the multiple sliders 32 slide along the fixed ring 31, and through the mutual cooperation of the adjusting bevel 1 and the adjusting bevel 3, the multiple sliders 32 drive the shrinking module 33 to shrink inward, and the steel pipe is shrinked. When the steel pipe exits the device, the oil wiping sponge 51 will wipe and clean the lubricating oil on the steel pipe.

[0030] When the lubricating oil on the ball 412 is insufficient, first start the oil pump to pump the lubricating oil stored in the oil tank 421 along the oil pipe 422 into the oil storage sponge 413, so that the oil storage sponge 413 is filled with lubricating oil. Then start the driving mechanism 438 to drive a plurality of gears 437 and the gear ring 436 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 437 drives the connecting column 439 to rotate, thereby driving the slide rail 434 and the sliding column 432 to slide outward along the sleeve 431, so that the push pressing plate 433 squeezes the oil storage sponge 413, thereby squeezing the lubricating oil on the oil storage sponge 413 onto the ball 412, so that the ball 412 is covered with lubricating oil.

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the present invention.
