When one end of the pipe to be processed extends between the adaptive roller 113 and the driven roller 1101, the adaptive roller 113 is driven by the transmission motor 115 to rotate clockwise, so that the rolling friction of the roller drives the pipe to be processed to move to the left and penetrate into the connecting tube 112. At the same time, the transmission motor 115 and the swing plate 114 can swing around the core shaft 1102 on the mounting plate 110 (refer to Figure 7), under the elastic force of the elastic member 116, the distance between the adaptive roller 113 and the driven roller 1101 can be automatically compensated, so that the adaptive roller 113 will not give excessive pressure to the pipe to be processed, thereby avoiding serious extrusion deformation of the pipe to be processed that affects the subsequent flanging of the pipe, so that the transmission mechanism 11 can achieve a good transmission effect on pipes of various thicknesses.

[0069] Under the guidance of the connecting tube 112 in the transfer mechanism 11, the pipe to be processed is finally transferred to the first clamping block 1201 in the cutting mechanism 12. When the end of the pipe extends to a certain distance to the left end of the first clamping block 1201 (the part of the pipe extending to the outer side of the left end of the first clamping block 1201 is used for subsequent flanging processing), the transfer motor 115 pauses, and the vertical feed motor 124 starts to drive the vertical lead screw 125 to rotate. The vertical lead screw 125 drives the first lead screw nut 1211 through threaded cooperation to convert the rotational motion into linear motion, thereby driving the lower pressing table 121 to move downward, and finally driving the second clamping block 1210 to move down and abut against the first clamping block 1201, so as to clamp and fix the pipe to be processed.

[0070] In the flanging assembly 22 of the flanging mechanism 2, the flanging motor 226 drives the driven gear 225 to rotate through the meshing of the driving gear 2261, and the driven gear 225 rotates to drive the second gear 22022 and the second forming roller 2202 connected thereto to rotate, and the second gear 22022 drives the first gear 22012 and the third gear 22032 meshed on both sides to rotate, thereby driving the fourth gear 22042 to rotate at the same time, thereby the flanging motor 226 drives the driven gear 225 to rotate through the meshing of the gears. The first forming roller 2201, the second forming roller 2202, the shaping roller 2203 and the circular cutting roller 2204 are driven to rotate simultaneously, and the longitudinal lead screw 223 is driven to rotate via a belt drive through the longitudinal feed motor 222, and the longitudinal lead screw 223 is spirally matched with the second lead screw nut 2213 to drive the longitudinal feed table 221 to move precisely along the longitudinal guide rail 102, so that the first forming roller 2201 moves first and is aligned with the pipe to be processed fixed between the first clamp 1201 and the second clamp 1210.

[0071] Then the transverse feed motor 227 is started, driving the transverse feed table 213 to move along the transverse guide rail 2211 to approach the pipe to be processed. During the movement of the first forming roller 2201 along the transverse feed table 213, the guide cylinder 2205 located at the end of the first forming roller 2201 is first inserted into the inner hole of the pipe to be processed, so as to guide the first cone 22011 to enter the inner hole of the pipe to be processed. As the first forming roller 2201 continues to feed (the first cone 22011 with a cone angle of 60 degrees has a relatively gentle inclined surface, making it easy to enter the originally straight inner hole of the pipe), the first cone 22011 is driven to rotate and enter the inner hole of the pipe, and because the first cone 22 011 is an incomplete conical structure, so that the side of the first cone 22011 has angular edges, which reduces the contact area between the conical surface of the first cone 22011 and the inner wall of the pipe fitting, reduces the friction between the first cone 22011 and the inner wall of the pipe fitting, and avoids the distortion and deformation of the pipe fitting due to rotation. At the same time, the angular edges of the rotating first cone 22011 will play a role of reaming the inner wall of the pipe fitting to be processed (and the rotating first cone 22011 will rub against the pipe fitting to heat up the pipe fitting, which is more conducive to deformation of the pipe fitting). Under the dual forces of extrusion and reaming applied by the first cone 22011 to the pipe fitting, the pipe mouth part of the pipe fitting to be processed is deformed into a 60-degree conical flange.

[0072] After completing the initial 60-degree flanging, the lateral feed motor 227 drives the first cone 22011 to retreat, and then the longitudinal feed motor 222 drives the second forming roller 2202 to move to the position aligned with the pipe fitting. The lateral feed motor 227 also drives the second forming roller 2202 to move closer to the pipe fitting. The second cone 22021 at the end of the second forming roller 2202 first guides the second cone 22021 through the guide cylinder 2205 inserted into the inner hole of the pipe fitting. Finally, the second cone 22021 enters the 60-degree conical flanging inner cavity formed by the initial flanging of the pipe fitting. Similarly, the second cone 22021 applies the dual forces of extrusion and reaming to the pipe fitting in the same manner as the first cone 22011, so that the 60-degree conical flanging of the pipe fitting is extruded into a 120-degree flanging with the same contour as the second cone 22021. The rotation extrusion is performed in multiple steps to prevent the pipe fitting from stress concentration and rupture, and the flanging effect is good.

[0073] Then, driven by the transverse feed motor 227 and the longitudinal feed motor 222, the shaping roller 2203 is aligned with the pipe to be processed, and the shaping roller 2203 is driven by the transverse feed motor 227 to move closer to the pipe to be processed, and the guide cylinder 2205 at the exact center of the end of the shaping roller 2203 is inserted into the inner hole of the pipe, and finally the 120-degree flange of the pipe is squeezed by the extrusion plane 22031, and finally the flange part of the pipe is pressed against the On the left end faces of the first clamping block 1201 and the second clamping block 1210, the pipe mouth is finally formed into a final flanging structure perpendicular to the side wall of the pipe; finally, the lateral feed motor 227 and the longitudinal feed motor 222 drive the shaping roller 2203 to withdraw, and align the circular cutting roller 2204 with the pipe that has completed the flanging, and the circular cutting roller 2204 uses the circular cutting knife 22041 rotating at the end to cut the outer edge of the flanging part of the pipe, and remove the burrs and uneven edges of the outer edge of the flanging.

[0074] After completing the flanging process, the vertical feed motor 124 in the cutting mechanism 12 drives the second clamp 1210 to move up and away from the first clamp 1201, and then the transfer motor 115 drives the vertical feed motor 124 to drive the second clamp 1210 to move down again to fix the pipe, and then the cutting motor 122 starts to drive the roller 1222 to rotate eccentrically through the drive shaft 1221, so that when the roller 1222 rotates to the uppermost position, it drives the cutting blade 123 to slide upward to cut the flanging-completed pipe from the rolled pipe, and then the vertical feed motor 124 drives the second clamp 1210 to move up and away from the first clamp 1201 again, and drives the pipe to move to the left through the adaptive roller 113 to leak a small length for the subsequent next flanging process.

[0075] When it is necessary to perform flanging processing on pipes of different specifications and thus replace the flanging roller set 220, it is only necessary to quickly replace the base 210 carrying the flanging roller set 220 in the bearing assembly 21. First, remove the fastening screws 212, lift the base 210 around the oblique splitting clamp 2102 to remove the base 210, and then insert the oblique splitting clamp 2102 of the base 210 equipped with different flanging roller sets 220 into the oblique splitting clamping groove 21311 on the horizontal feed table 213, and then put the base 210 down to make the base The positioning groove 2105 at the bottom of 210 is aligned and inserted into the positioning protrusion 2132 of the lateral feed table 213, and the driven gear 225 is moved to engage with the driving gear 2261. Finally, the fastening screw 212 is screwed back into the threaded through hole 2103, and the end of the fastening screw 212 is pressed tightly against the conical surface 2112 on the limiting body 211, so that the base 210 is continuously close to the upper surface of the lateral feed table 213, and finally the base 210 is accurately positioned and fastened, and the flanging roller group 220 in the bearing component 21 is quickly replaced.

[0076] An automatic flanging machine of the present invention has a transfer mechanism 11 for transferring pipe fittings, a cutting mechanism 12 for clamping and cutting pipe fittings, and a flanging mechanism 2 for extruding and flanging pipe fittings arranged on a workbench 100 of the flanging machine. The transfer mechanism 11 includes an adaptive roller 113 and a driven roller 1101 arranged closely to each other, and can transfer and transport the pipe fittings located between the adaptive roller 113 and the driven roller 1101 to the cutting mechanism 12. The cutting mechanism 12 includes a bearing seat 120 and a lower pressing table 121 movably arranged above the bearing seat 120, and can clamp and fix the pipe fittings. A cutting blade 123 for cutting the pipe fittings is slidably arranged on one side of the bearing seat 120. The flanging mechanism 2 includes a flanging assembly 22, and a flanging roller group 220 is provided in the flanging assembly 22. The flanging roller group 220 includes a rotatable first forming roller 2201, a second forming roller 2202, and a shaping roller 2203. 03 and the circular cutting roller 2204, the first forming roller 2201 performs an initial flanging of the pipe with a small inclination angle, the second forming roller 2202 further expands the flanging angle of the pipe, and finally the shaping roller 2203 extrude the flanging of the pipe into a final flanging perpendicular to the side wall of the pipe, so that the pipe is segmentedly extruded by the first forming roller 2201, the second forming roller 2202 and the shaping roller 2203 to avoid the stress concentration caused by one extrusion force to cause the pipe to rupture, and multiple extrusions can reduce the toughness of the deformed part of the pipe, so that the flanging part can be maintained, and the rotating extrusion flanging roller group 220 can play a role similar to reaming on the pipe, and at the same time, the friction between the rotating roller group and the pipe will cause the pipe to heat up, which is beneficial to the deformation of the pipe and ensures the flanging effect. In summary, the automatic flanging machine of the present invention not only has a high degree of automation and a good flanging effect, but also does not cause the risk of scalding compared with hot flanging.
