A portable pipe bender

Abstract

This utility model discloses a portable pipe bender, including a handle and a pipe bending component. A pedal is rotatably mounted on one side of the pipe bending component, and a pair of rollers are rotatably mounted on the bottom of the pedal. A cylindrical structure for accommodating the handle is integrally formed at the center of the pipe bending component. A limit rod is rotatably mounted on one side of the cylindrical structure of the pipe bending component. A U-shaped groove for accommodating the limit rod is provided at the center of the pedal, so that the limit rod can be inserted into the U-shaped groove to prevent the pedal from slipping off. This utility model increases the contact area between the foot and the pipe bender through the pedal structure, effectively preventing slippage when stepping on the pipe bender. When bending pipes, the operator can apply greater bending force to the pipe more easily by using the pedal in conjunction with the handle and the pipe bending component, thus achieving more efficient pipe bending operations. The pedal is movable and can be folded away when not in use, making the overall structure of the pipe bender more compact and easy to carry.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe processing equipment, specifically a portable pipe bender. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of pipeline installation, manual pipe benders are widely used for bending various small and medium diameter pipes due to their ease of operation and low cost. To achieve labor-saving operation, existing manual pipe benders often employ a foot-operated method at the end of the bender, utilizing leg strength to assist in bending the pipe.

[0003] Due to the lack of a dedicated pedal structure design, the foot directly steps on the end of the pipe bender, resulting in a small contact area. This makes it easy for the foot to slip when applying force, which not only seriously affects the stability and accuracy of the pipe bending operation, but also poses a safety hazard of the operator losing balance and falling. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable pipe bender to solve the problem of poor operational stability of existing pipe benders mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a portable pipe bender, comprising a handle and a bender component, a pedal rotatably mounted on one side of the bender component, a pair of rollers rotatably mounted on the bottom of the pedal, a cylindrical structure integrally formed at the center of the bender component for accommodating the handle, a limit rod rotatably mounted on one side of the bender component located at the cylindrical structure, and a U-shaped groove for accommodating the limit rod at the center of the pedal, so that the limit rod can be inserted into the U-shaped groove to prevent the pedal from slipping out.

[0006] Preferably, the pedal has a groove at its center for accommodating the pipe.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the pedal is integrally formed with a pair of mounting ears, which are rotatably connected to the bent pipe component.

[0008] Preferably, the end of the limiting rod has a T-shaped structure.

[0009] Preferably, a pair of locating pins are fixedly installed on the side wall of the bent pipe fitting.

[0010] Preferably, the corners of the pedals are rounded for a smooth transition.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This utility model significantly increases the contact area between the foot and the pipe bender through the pedal structure, effectively preventing slippage when stepping on the pipe bender. When bending the pipe, the operator uses the strength of the legs through the pedal, in conjunction with the handle and the pipe bending component, to apply greater bending force to the pipe more easily, thus achieving more efficient pipe bending operations. The pedal is movable and can be folded away when not in use, making the overall structure of the pipe bender more compact and easy to carry. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a portable pipe bender, including a handle 1 and a pipe bending component 2. A pedal 4 is rotatably mounted on one side of the pipe bending component 2. A pair of mounting ears 6 are integrally formed at one end of the pedal 4, and the mounting ears 6 are rotatably connected to the pipe bending component 2. The edges and corners of the pedal 4 are all rounded for smooth transition. The advantage of this design is that the rounded corners can avoid injury to the operator from sharp edges. A groove 8 for accommodating the pipe is provided in the center of the pedal 4. This design does not affect the pipe bending operation. A pair of rollers 5 are rotatably mounted on the bottom of the pedal 4, and the rollers 5 can provide stability on the ground. The support allows the operator to maintain balance when applying force, better control the bending force and angle, and improve the accuracy and quality of bending. A cylindrical structure for accommodating the handle 1 is integrally formed at the center of the bending component 2. A limit rod 3 is rotatably mounted on one side of the cylindrical structure of the bending component 2. The end of the limit rod 3 has a T-shaped structure. A U-shaped groove 9 is provided at the center of the pedal 4 to accommodate the limit rod 3, allowing the limit rod 3 to insert into the U-shaped groove 9 to prevent the pedal 4 from slipping. A pair of positioning pins 7 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the bending component 2. The positioning pins 7 are used to support the pedal 4 when the bending component 2 is in a vertical direction. When the pedal 4 is retracted, by rotating the limit rod 3 until it engages with the U-shaped groove 9, the T-shaped structure at the end of the limit rod 3 abuts against the pedal 4, preventing the pedal 4 from slipping. The rotation of the limit rod 3 is relatively simple and convenient. Operators can easily rotate it to engage or disengage with the U-shaped groove 9, which facilitates quick unlocking when the pedal 4 is needed and timely folding and locking of the pedal 4 after use. This is beneficial for the storage and retrieval of the pipe bender, making it occupy less space and improving the overall portability of the pipe bender.

[0020] This application utilizes the pedal 4 and roller 5 to allow the operator to bend the pipe by using the leg strength of the user's legs through the pedal 4, in conjunction with the handle 1 and the pipe bending component 2. The stable pedaling method allows the operator to apply force more evenly and steadily, reducing pipe bending deviations caused by slippage or uneven force, thereby achieving more efficient pipe bending operations. The pedal 4 is movable and can be folded away when not in use, making the overall structure of the pipe bender more compact and easy to carry.
