Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pipe expanding tools, and in particular relates to a working component of a pipe expanding tool and an electric hydraulic pipe expanding tool. Background Art

[0002] Pipe expansion tools are mainly used in pipeline connection and other aspects. When used, it is usually necessary to expand the connection hole at one end of the pipe fitting first, then insert the other pipe fitting into the expanded connection hole, and then use a crimping tool to press the two pipe fittings to complete the pipeline connection. Existing pipe expansion tools such as a hydraulic pipe expander proposed in Chinese utility model patent CN 203944741U, whose pipe expansion mold is directly connected to the outside of the ejector pin, and the pipe expansion mold is composed of multi-petal cone claws, and there is a gap between each cone claw. When working, the cone claw is extended into the pipe fitting connection hole, and the piston located in the pump body is pushed by the oil, thereby pushing the ejector pin, causing the cone claw to open outward to achieve the effect of expanding the pipe fitting hole.

[0003] In the actual working process, the expansion degree of the expansion tool in one work is limited. Usually, the pipe fitting needs to be expanded multiple times to expand the connecting hole to the required size. Although the above technical scheme can achieve the effect of pipe expansion, there is a gap between adjacent cone claws. After being stretched open by the ejector during work, the gap will become larger. Therefore, the side of the cone claw is easy to leave marks on the inner wall of the pipe fitting, and due to the existence of the gap, the outer periphery of the pipe expansion mold is not a perfect circle. After repeated pipe expansion, it is easy to cause the connecting hole on the inside of the pipe fitting to become a polygonal hole or unilateral expansion or irregular pipe mouth, etc. Such situation will cause the sealing of the connection between the pipe mouth and the pipeline to be greatly affected, which will bring more trouble to the installation and construction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments of the present invention. Figure 1-Figure 7 ,

[0039] An electrohydraulic pipe expansion tool, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes a tool body 2, one end of which is provided with a motor drive mechanism 21 and an oil bag 22, and the other end is provided with a working component. Oil passages are opened in the working component and the tool body. After power is turned on, the motor drive mechanism 21 starts to operate, pumps the oil in the oil bag 22 into the oil passage in the tool body, and gradually pushes the working component to work.

[0040] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the working assembly includes a pump body 1 mounted on a tool body 2, a piston rod 3 movably arranged on the pump body 1 and having a first spring 41 sleeved on the outer circumference, an ejector pin 31 fixed to the front end of the piston rod 3, and a tube expansion mold 5. The tube expansion mold 5 is connected to the ejector pin 31 through a rotating component. The circumference of the ejector pin 31 is provided with a curved groove 32 along its length direction. Figure 3 As shown, the curved groove 32 is arranged in a curved manner, the rotating component is sleeved on the outer side of the ejector pin 31 and is provided with a positioning portion at least part of which can be embedded in the curved groove 32 on the inner side. Since the curved groove 32 is arranged in a curved manner, the head end and the tail end of the curved groove 32 are not in a straight line. When the ejector pin 31 performs a forward and backward linear motion, the curved groove 32 moves forward or backward relative to the positioning portion and the rotating component, and the rotating component rotates relatively along the curved groove 32, that is, the linear motion of the ejector pin can be converted into a circumferential rotation of the rotating component.

[0041] A second spring 42 is provided between the rotating component and the pump body 1 , and the second spring 42 provides a supporting force for the rotating component to prevent the rotating component from moving backward when the ejector pin 31 is reset.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, a mounting groove 611 is provided inside the rotating component; the positioning part is a steel ball 33, one side of the steel ball 33 is embedded in the mounting groove 611, and the other side of the steel ball 33 is embedded in the curved groove 32. The rotating component includes a driving block 61 and a rotating block 62 sleeved on the outer periphery of the ejector pin 31, and the inner periphery of the driving block 61 is provided with a mounting groove 611 for accommodating the steel ball 33.

[0043] The first implementation of the mounting groove 611 is as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown in FIG. , a countersunk hole is opened along the axial direction of the driving block 61 (i.e., the outer side and the lower side of the mounting groove 611 are both open designs). At this time, in order to ensure that the steel ball 33 always rolls only in the mounting groove (if the steel ball rolls out of the mounting groove, the rotating part cannot be driven to rotate, or the rotation effect is poor), an annular support ring 66 needs to be added to the inner side of the driving block 61, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the support ring 66 forms a first blocking surface 661 on one side facing the mounting groove 611 , and an inner concave surface 612 is formed at the inner end of the mounting groove 611 . The steel ball 33 is located between the first blocking surface 661 and the inner concave surface 612 .

[0044] The second embodiment of the mounting groove 611 can be a countersunk hole opened along the radial direction of the driving block 61, that is, the mounting groove is opened toward one side of the curved groove 32, and the front and rear ends of the mounting groove 611 toward the axial direction of the driving block 61 are closed. At this time, since both ends are closed, the steel ball 33 can only roll in the mounting groove 611, so there is no need to set the support ring 66. Compared with the first embodiment, this method can save the support ring, but it needs to make a radial opening on the inner side of the driving block, and the processing technology is cumbersome.

[0045] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner end of the rotating block 62 is provided with a ratchet ring 63 sleeved on the outer circumference of the driving block 61, and the outer end of the rotating block 62 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the ejector pin 31 and is used to connect the tube expansion mold 5. A plurality of ratchet teeth 631 are provided on the inner side of the ratchet ring 63, and a pawl 64 cooperating with the ratchet teeth 631 is provided on the driving block 61. A first mounting hole 613 is provided on the inner side of the driving block 61, and the pawl 64 is installed in the first mounting hole 613 through a fixing pin 72. A second mounting hole 614 is provided on the side wall of the first mounting hole 613 on the inner side of the driving block 61, and a spring 65 with one end against one side of the pawl 64 is provided in the second mounting hole 614.

[0046] The ratchet ring 63 and the rotating block 62 are arranged separately or integrally. Figure 3 As shown, when the ratchet ring 63 and the rotating block 62 are separately provided, the ratchet ring 63 is fixed to the rotating block 62 by a fixing pin 71 .

[0047] The working principle of the rotating part is as follows:

[0048] See also Figure 3 and Figure 7 When expanding the tube, the tube expanding mold 5 is inserted into the tube fitting, and the ejector pin 31 moves forward, gradually expanding the tube expanding mold 5 to achieve the purpose of expanding the tube fitting; the steel ball 33 gradually moves relatively from the original outer end of the curved groove 32 to the inner end of the curved groove 32. Since the head end and the end end of the curved groove 32 are not in a straight line, the driving block 61 will be prompted to rotate clockwise. At this time, since the tube expanding mold 5 is stretched and close to the inner wall of the tube fitting, it will be subject to resistance from the tube fitting, and the tube expanding mold and the rotating block will not rotate with the driving block 61; the ratchet 64 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 65 in this process, and produces relative sliding rotation with the ratchet 631.

[0049] When one tube expansion is completed and the ejector pin 31 moves backward to reset, the steel ball 33 gradually moves relatively from the inner end of the curved groove 32 to the outer end of the curved groove 32. Since the head and the end of the curved groove 32 are not in a straight line, the driving block 61 and the pawl 64 are prompted to rotate counterclockwise. The pawl 64 abuts against the ratchet teeth 631 of the ratchet ring 63. At this time, the tube expansion mold 5 is gradually closing and separating from the inner wall of the pipe fitting, and the resistance of the pipe fitting is reduced. Driven by the driving block 61 and the pawl 64, the ratchet ring 63 and the rotating block 62 also drive the tube expansion mold 5 to rotate counterclockwise.

[0050] The above process is repeated, and the driving block 61 keeps rotating repeatedly clockwise and counterclockwise during the forward and backward movement of the ejector pin 31; and the ratchet ring 63, the rotating block 62 and the tube expansion mold 5 only rotate counterclockwise following the driving block 61 during the backward movement and resetting process of the ejector pin 31, thereby ensuring the unidirectional rotation of the tube expansion mold and promoting more uniform tube expansion.

[0051] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a working chamber 11 is provided in the pump body 1, a piston 34 is movably provided at the inner end of the working chamber 11, and a fixing seat 35 is fixed at the outer end, the inner end of the piston rod 3 is fixed to the piston 34, and the outer end passes through the fixing seat 35 to connect the ejector pin 31, and the first spring 41 is located between the piston 34 and the fixing seat 35. The inner end of the working chamber 11 is connected to the oil passage, and the oil can push the piston to drive the piston rod and the ejector pin to move forward, and the first spring 41 is used to reset the piston rod.

[0052] Since the ejector pin is directly fixedly connected to the piston rod, in order to prevent the piston rod from being rotated by the rotating parts, a limiting groove 36 is provided on the circumference of the piston rod 3 along its length direction, and a limiting ball 37 is provided in the limiting groove 36; a groove 351 for accommodating the limiting ball 37 is provided on the fixing seat 35. In order to ensure that the limiting ball 37 rolls only in the groove 351, the groove 351 is provided in the same manner as the above-mentioned installation groove 611. When the groove 351 is a groove with openings on the front side and the bottom side, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a stop ring 38 needs to be arranged inside the fixing seat 35, and a second blocking surface 381 is formed outside the stop ring 38, which can be blocked inside the stop ball 37; the inner end of the first spring 41 is against the outer end surface of the piston 34, and the outer end of the first spring 41 extends into the stop ring 38 and is against the inner wall of the stop ring 38. When the groove 351 is a countersunk hole with only a bottom opening, the blocking structure of the stop ring 38 can be eliminated.

[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, a sleeve 8 is threadedly connected to one side of the pump body 1, and a mounting cavity 81 is provided in the sleeve 8. The rotating component and the second spring 42 are located in the mounting cavity 81. A first abutment platform 621 is formed on the rotating component (the first abutment platform 621 is formed on the rotating block 62 in this embodiment), and a second abutment platform 82 is formed in the mounting cavity 81. The second abutment platform 82 is blocked on the outside of the first abutment platform 621 to prevent the rotating component from following the ejector pin to move outward and affect its rotation. A support ring 66 is provided at the inner end of the rotating component, and the second spring 42 is abutted between the end face of the pump body 1 and the support ring 66. The second spring 42 provides a supporting force for the rotating component to prevent the ejector pin 31 from moving backward with the rotating component when the ejector pin 31 is reset (when a structure without a support ring 66 is adopted, the second spring 42 is directly abutted on the inner end face of the driving block 61).

[0054] The front end of the sleeve 8 is connected to the tube expansion mold 5 through a locking cap 9, and the locking cap 9 is threadedly connected to the sleeve 8. An annular groove 91 is provided on the inner side of the locking cap 9. The tube expansion mold 5 includes a mold base 51. The thickness of the mold base 51 is smaller than the width of the annular groove 91, and a tightening tension spring 43 is provided on the circumferential surface of the mold base 51 and between the annular groove 91, so that the mold base 51 of the tube expansion mold 5 can rotate in the annular groove 91 and expand outward to achieve the expansion effect on the pipe fitting.

[0055] Working principle of the present invention:

[0056] The tube expansion mold 5 of the present invention is composed of a plurality of cone claws 52. When the piston 34 is pushed by the oil, the piston rod 3 and the ejector pin 31 are driven to move forward. During the forward movement of the ejector pin, the cone claws 52 are gradually opened, thereby expanding the inner hole of the pipe fitting. Since a curved groove 32 is provided on the outer periphery of the ejector pin 31, and a steel ball 33 is provided in the rotating component, the forward linear motion of the ejector pin is converted into the rotation of the rotating component under the interaction of the steel ball and the curved groove, thereby driving the tube expansion mold 5 to rotate when the ejector pin 31 moves backward and resets (for the specific rotation principle, please refer to the "working principle of the rotating component" mentioned above).

[0057] After the ejector pin is reset, it continues to be pushed forward by the oil to expand the pipe fitting. After multiple reciprocating movements, the expansion and rotation of the pipe expansion mold 5 can make the inner circle of the pipe fitting evenly stressed, making the expanded connection hole closer to a perfect circle, making it easier to connect the pipes and enhancing the tightness of the pipe connection.

[0058] In addition, since the limiting groove 36 and the limiting ball 37 are provided on the piston rod 3, the piston rod 3 can only perform linear motion and will not rotate due to the influence of the rotating parts, so that the structure of the piston rod and the ejector movement is more stable.

[0059] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected.
