Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pipe processing, and in particular to a pipe grooving processing device and a processing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] When existing grooving machines perform grooving processing on pipe fittings, the pipe fitting is usually first fixed and clamped on the pipe fitting clamp so that the pipe fitting remains stationary and cannot rotate around its own central axis; then the feeding mechanism is used to move the rolling wheel toward the pipe fitting and press it into contact with the outside of the pipe fitting. During processing, the rolling wheel makes a circular motion on the outside of the pipe fitting, and at the same time, the rolling wheel continues to move toward the center of the pipe fitting under the action of the feeding mechanism; the rolling wheel is rotatably connected to the rolling wheel shaft, so when the rolling wheel makes a circular motion around the pipe fitting, the rolling wheel itself will also rotate around the rolling wheel shaft, so that rolling friction is formed between the rolling wheel and the outer surface of the pipe fitting; under the rotation and pressure of the rolling wheel, a ring-shaped groove structure is formed on the outside of the pipe fitting.
[0003] However, in the existing grooving processing method, since the pipe is kept stationary, the rotation of the rolling wheel itself is passive, and the rotation of the rolling wheel itself is driven by the friction between the pipe and the rolling wheel. In the actual processing process, there will be a certain friction between the rolling wheel and the rolling wheel shaft. When the friction resistance between the rolling wheel shaft and the rolling wheel is large, the friction between the rolling wheel and the pipe is insufficient to drive the rolling wheel itself to rotate, causing the rolling wheel to become stuck. In this way, the rolling friction between the rolling wheel and the outer surface of the pipe is converted from rolling friction to sliding friction. Under the sliding friction state, the rolling wheel will scratch the outer surface of the pipe, and the sliding friction will cause the surface material of the pipe to peel off and form powdery processing debris. These processing debris will fall on the equipment, which is more troublesome to clean up. Especially when processing aluminum pipes, due to the weak material of aluminum, a large amount of aluminum shavings will be generated during processing, which is very difficult to clean up.

[0024] A method for processing a pipe groove includes the following specific steps:
[0025] Step 1) clamping the pipe by the clamping die feeding device. When clamping, the pipe is placed between the first clamping wheel and the second clamping wheel.

[0030] Step 6) After the grooving is completed, the second motor drives the screw to rotate in the opposite direction and reset the movable ring. The rolling wheel is reset under the action of the reset mechanism and the pipe is loosened; the servo moving device drives the pipe to withdraw from between the three rolling wheels.
[0031] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: in the present invention, the rolling wheel is driven to rotate by the rotary drive mechanism, and the rotation of the rolling wheel drives the pipe fitting to rotate, and the rolling wheel actively rotates, which is the active power; the three rolling wheels act on the pipe fitting at the same time, ensuring that there is rolling friction between the rolling wheel and the surface of the pipe fitting, and no sliding friction is generated between the two, thereby effectively reducing the falling of debris and powder on the surface of the pipe fitting during processing, and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the processing debris; at the same time, due to the rolling friction between the rolling wheel and the outer surface of the pipe fitting, the scratches on the surface of the pipe fitting by the rolling wheel are reduced, and the smoothness of the surface of the pipe fitting after processing is improved.

Specifically, the rolling wheel mounting block 8 is rotatably connected to a rolling wheel axle 41, and the rolling wheel 9 is rotatably connected to the rolling wheel axle 41. The rolling wheel 9 can rotate around the rolling wheel axle 41.
[0052] The rotary drive mechanism is simultaneously connected to the three rolling wheels 9 and is used to drive the three rolling wheels 9 to rotate synchronously. Specifically, the rotary drive mechanism includes a first motor 2, a driving gear shaft 29, a driven gear shaft 31, and a universal joint 5.

[0058] The die-feeding device 6 is located on one side of the frame 1. It is used to clamp the pipe 20 and drive the pipe 20 to move. After being clamped, the pipe 20 can rotate about its own central axis. The die-feeding mechanism includes a servo movable device 45 and a clamping cylinder 46 mounted on the servo movable device 45.

A contact shaft 42 is provided on the mandrel holder 39, and a contact sensor switch 37 is provided on the sliding seat 34, corresponding to the contact shaft 42. The contact sensor switch 37 is electrically connected to the control system. In the present invention, the contact sensor switch 37 utilizes existing technology.
[0060] A cylinder mounting seat 35 is provided on the side of the sliding seat 34 away from the core rod seat 39. The cylinder mounting seat 35 is fixedly set on the frame 1. A floating positioning cylinder 36 is provided on the cylinder mounting seat 35. The piston rod of the floating positioning cylinder 36 is connected to the sliding seat 34, and the sliding seat 34 is driven to move along the guide rail 33 by the floating positioning cylinder 36.
[0061] The sliding seat 34 is connected to a positioning adjustment screw, which is threadedly connected to the sliding seat 34, with one end of the positioning adjustment screw facing the frame 1. A positioning step surface 53 is provided on the core rod 21.
[0062] When the present invention performs grooving on the pipe 20, the processing method is as follows:
[0063] Step 1) The pipe is clamped by the clamping die feeding device 6. When clamping, the pipe is placed between the first clamping wheel 49 and the second clamping wheel 51, and then the clamping cylinder 46 drives the first clamping wheel 49 and the second clamping wheel 51 to move closer to each other and clamp the pipe.
[0064] The two first clamping wheels 49 and the second clamping wheels 51 clamp the outside of the pipe from three directions. After the pipe is clamped, since the first clamping wheels 49 and the second clamping wheels 51 can both rotate, the pipe can rotate around its own central axis. However, if the servo moving device 45 is not started, the pipe cannot move around its axial direction.
[0065] Step 2) The piston rod of the floating positioning cylinder 36 extends and drives the sliding seat 34 to move to the first working position.
[0066] Step 3) The servo moving device 45 on the clamping die feeding device 6 drives the pipe to move and extends the pipe between the three rolling wheels 9, and the core rod 21 is inserted from one end of the pipe; as the pipe continues to extend, the end of the pipe presses against the limiting step surface on the core rod 21 and pushes the core rod 21 and the core rod seat 39 toward the sliding seat 34; when the contact shaft 42 on the core rod seat 39 moves to contact the contact sensing switch 37 on the sliding seat 34, the contact sensing switch 37 is triggered and sends a trigger signal to the control system, and the control system controls the servo moving device 45 to stop moving; then the piston rod on the floating positioning cylinder 36 retracts and drives the sliding seat 34 to retreat to the second working position, so that the contact sensing switch 37 is away from the contact shaft 42.
[0067] Among them, when the sliding seat 34 retreats to the second working position, there is a certain distance between the contact sensing switch 37 on the sliding seat 34 and the contact shaft 42, and the distance is 1-2 mm, so that the core rod 21 is in a floating state in the axial direction, and the core rod 21 and the pipe fitting have a certain floating space in the axial direction, so that the pipe fitting has a certain forward and backward extension space during the processing process.
[0068] Step 4) The rolling wheel 9 is driven to feed toward the center direction of the fixed disk 22 by the feed drive mechanism. The specific method is as follows: the second motor 17 drives the screw rod 18 to rotate, drives the screw rod sleeve 19 to move along the axial direction of the screw rod 18 and pushes the transmission fork 12 to rotate. When the transmission fork 12 rotates, it drives the movable ring 10 to move along the axial direction of the fixed disk 22; during the movement of the movable ring 10, under the action of the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface, the three rolling wheel mounting blocks 8 are driven to move toward the center direction of the fixed disk 22 at the same time, so that the three rolling wheels 9 press the outside of the pipe fitting.
[0069] Step 5) The three rolling wheels 9 are driven to rotate synchronously by the rotary drive mechanism. During the rotation process, the rolling wheels 9 are driven by the feed drive mechanism to continuously move toward the center direction of the fixed disk 22, and a groove structure is formed on the outside of the pipe under the rolling action of the rolling wheels 9.
[0070] In this step, the tube is rotated by the rotation of the rolling wheel 9, which actively rotates. During the rotation of the tube, the core rod 21 also rotates synchronously with the tube, and the clamping die feeding device 6 provides auxiliary support for one end of the tube.
[0071] Step 6) After the grooving process is completed, the second motor 17 drives the screw 18 to rotate in the opposite direction and reset the movable ring 10. The rolling wheel 9 is reset under the action of the reset mechanism and the pipe is loosened; the servo moving device 45 drives the pipe to withdraw from between the three rolling wheels 9, thereby completing the grooving process on the pipe.
[0072] In the present invention, the rolling wheel 9 is driven to rotate by a rotary drive mechanism, and the rotation of the rolling wheel 9 drives the pipe to rotate. The rolling wheel 9 actively rotates and serves as the active power. The three rolling wheels 9 act on the pipe at the same time, ensuring that there is rolling friction between the rolling wheel 9 and the surface of the pipe, and no sliding friction is generated between the two, thereby effectively reducing the falling of debris and powder on the surface of the pipe during processing and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the processing debris. At the same time, due to the rolling friction between the rolling wheel 9 and the outer surface of the pipe, the scratches on the surface of the pipe by the rolling wheel 9 are reduced, and the smoothness of the surface of the pipe after processing is improved.
[0073] During the processing of the pipe fitting, a core rod 21 is inserted into the pipe fitting to provide good support for the pipe fitting and improve the processing accuracy; during the processing, the core rod 21 is in a floating state, so that the pipe fitting has a certain floating space in the axial direction, thereby allowing the pipe fitting to have a certain forward and backward extension space during the processing.
[0074] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned optimal implementation mode. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the inspiration of the present invention. However, no matter what changes are made in the shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same or similar to that of the present application falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.

3. A pipe grooving method, based on the pipe grooving device according to claim 1, characterized in that: The specific steps include: Step 1) The pipe is clamped by the clamping die feeding device. When clamping, the pipe is placed between the first clamping wheel and the second clamping wheel. Then the clamping cylinder drives the first clamping wheel and the second clamping wheel to move closer to each other and clamp the pipe; Step 2) The piston rod on the floating positioning cylinder extends and drives the sliding seat to move to the first working position; Step 3) The servo moving device on the clamping die feeding device drives the tube to move and insert the tube between the three rolling wheels, and the mandrel is inserted from one end of the tube; as the tube continues to be inserted, the end of the tube presses against the limit step surface on the mandrel and pushes the mandrel and the mandrel seat toward the sliding seat; when the contact shaft on the mandrel seat moves to contact the contact sensing switch on the sliding seat, the contact sensing switch is triggered and sends a trigger signal to the control system, which controls the servo moving device to stop moving; then the piston rod on the floating positioning cylinder retracts and drives the sliding seat back to the second working position, so that the contact sensing switch is away from the contact shaft; Step 4) The feed drive mechanism drives the rolling wheel to feed toward the center of the fixed disk.
