Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of steel pipe processing technology, and in particular to a multi-angle cutting device and cutting method for steel pipes. Background Technology

[0002] Steel pipes are used for transporting fluids and powdery solids, exchanging heat energy, manufacturing mechanical parts and containers, and are also an economical type of steel. The development of steel pipe production technology began with the rise of the bicycle manufacturing industry, the development of oil in the early 19th century, and the manufacture of ships, boilers and aircraft during the two World Wars.

[0003] In steel pipe processing, cutting is often required, necessitating the use of steel pipe cutting equipment. For example, Chinese patent application number 202022218997.1 discloses "a multi-angle steel pipe cutting device, including a worktable with legs fixedly connected to the four corners of the worktable's bottom surface." This invention, through the arrangement of a first motor, gears, a gear ring, a collar, a rotating rod, and an n-shaped plate, causes the cutting wire to deflect, allowing for rotation at any angle. This facilitates adjustment during the deflection process according to the desired cutting angle of the steel pipe. After cutting, the steel pipe ends have burrs, requiring grinding to prevent accidental injury to workers. The first motor, n-shaped plate, and second motor work together to rotate the grinding disc and grind the cut ends of the steel pipe. This device facilitates welding two steel pipes at any angle and effectively grinds their ends, simplifying later use. This effectively saves the time required for fixing the steel pipe during subsequent grinding, further improving work efficiency and increasing the practicality of the device. However, when the aforementioned multi-angle steel pipe cutting device cuts the steel pipe, it uses a cutting molybdenum wire to cut the steel pipe. The cutting molybdenum wire cuts the steel pipe from the outside to the inside. During the cutting process, the cutting molybdenum wire generates heat through frequent friction with the cut surface of the steel pipe, resulting in molten iron filings and burrs that adhere to the cut edge of the steel pipe. Since the steel pipe is cut from the outside to the inside, the molten iron filings and burrs are concentrated on the inner wall of the cut edge. These molten iron filings and burrs located on the inner wall of the steel pipe are difficult to polish later, which may affect the normal use of the cut steel pipe. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, a multi-angle steel pipe cutting device and its cutting method are proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a multi-angle steel pipe cutting device and its cutting method.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0012] Preferably, the mounting post has a mounting groove at one end near the second fixed plate, and a motor is installed in the mounting groove. The output shaft of the motor is connected to the second fixed plate.

[0013] Preferably, the piston rod end of the third electric telescopic rod is connected to a connecting plate, and the connecting rod end is hinged to the outer wall of the connecting plate.

[0015] Preferably, the angle adjustment mechanism includes a connecting plate hinged to the support plate, a mounting knife holder installed at the end of the connecting plate, a cutting blade installed on the mounting knife holder, two third mounting holes symmetrically opened on the support plate, the two third mounting holes being located on both sides of the connecting plate respectively, an inflatable airbag column installed in each of the two third mounting holes, the ends of the two inflatable airbag columns being connected to the mounting knife holder, an air pump for inflating the inflatable airbag columns being provided on the support plate, the inflation end of the air pump being connected to the inflatable airbag columns through an air delivery pipe, an exhaust port being opened on each of the two inflatable airbag columns, and an electronic exhaust valve being installed in each of the two exhaust ports.

[0016] Preferably, the telescopic mechanism includes a mounting plate mounted on a base plate, a first electric telescopic rod mounted on the side of the mounting plate, the piston rod end of the first electric telescopic rod being connected to a mounting plate, one end of a connecting rod being fixed to the side of a first fixed plate, the other end of the connecting rod being fixed to the side of the mounting plate, a sliding rod being mounted on the side of the mounting plate away from the first fixed plate, a sliding hole being provided on the side of the mounting plate, the sliding rod being slidably mounted in the sliding hole, a support plate being provided between the mounting plate and the base plate, and a collection groove being provided on the base plate.

[0017] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes a support frame mounted on the base plate, a top plate connected to the top of the support frame, a second electric telescopic rod installed at the bottom of the top plate, an extrusion plate connected to the piston rod end of the second electric telescopic rod, and limiting seats for fixing the steel pipe installed at the bottom of the extrusion plate and the top of the base plate. The limiting seats have arc-shaped grooves, and the mounting column is located between the limiting seats at the bottom of the extrusion plate and the limiting seats at the top of the base plate.

[0018] The present invention discloses a cutting method for a multi-angle steel pipe cutting device, which includes the following steps:

[0019] S1: First, place the steel pipe to be cut between the limiting seat at the bottom of the extrusion plate and the limiting seat at the top of the base plate. Start the second electric telescopic rod. The piston rod of the second electric telescopic rod pushes the extrusion plate and moves the limiting seat at the bottom of the extrusion plate down to extrude and fix the steel pipe.

[0020] S2: Start the first electric telescopic rod. The piston rod of the first electric telescopic rod extends and pushes the mounting column to move laterally and insert into the steel pipe. At the same time, start the third electric telescopic rod on the side of the mounting column near the second fixed plate. The piston rod of the third electric telescopic rod retracts, causing several fixed plates to expand outward until the grinding plate contacts the inner wall of the steel pipe. Simultaneously, start the motor. The output shaft of the motor drives the second fixed plate to rotate, causing the grinding plate to rotate and grind the inner wall of the steel pipe to remove rust, dust and dirt.

[0021] S3: The rust and dirt generated by the rotating grinding plate grinding the inner wall of the steel pipe fall between the first and second fixed plates through the guide groove on the grinding plate. The rust and dirt accumulate at the bottom of the inner wall of the steel pipe under its own weight. The first electric slider is activated, which moves the cutting blade toward the second fixed plate. The second electric slider is activated, which makes the cutting blade position at the bottom of the outer wall of the mounting column. The air pump is activated to inflate the airbag column, which makes the end of the cutting blade contact the inner wall of the steel pipe. At this time, the rust and dirt are on the side of the cutting blade away from the second fixed plate. The first electric slider is activated again, which makes the cutting blade move laterally and push the rust and dirt laterally, which can pull the rust and dirt out of the steel pipe.

[0022] S4: Simultaneously activate the third electric telescopic rod on the side of the first and second fixed plates, so that the grinding plate and anti-slip plate abut against the inner wall of the steel pipe, and fix the steel pipe against it. At this time, start the air pump to inflate the airbag column so that the end of the cutting blade contacts the inner wall of the steel pipe. The cutting position of the cutting blade can be adjusted by the first guide rail and the first electric slider, and the cutting angle of the cutting blade can be adjusted by the angle adjustment mechanism.

[0023] S5: After adjusting the cutting position and cutting angle of the cutting blade, start the second electric slider. The second electric slider drives the cutting blade to rotate inside the steel pipe to cut the steel pipe from the inside out.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0025] 1. In this invention, the use of two inflatable airbag columns allows for simultaneous inflation of both columns, ensuring the cutting blade is perpendicular to the inner wall of the steel pipe for cutting. Alternatively, only one of the two airbag columns can be inflated. The expansion of the inflated airbag column tilts the mounting blade, allowing adjustment of the cutting angle of the blade. This adjustment results in a chamfered cut on the steel pipe. Furthermore, the combined use of the two airbag columns allows for different chamfer angles, enabling adjustment of the chamfer angle as needed, thus improving the ease of use of the device.

[0026] 2. This invention utilizes a cutting blade to cut the steel pipe from the inside out, allowing for complete collection of the waste generated during cutting. This prevents the waste from flying around and affecting the surrounding environment, and avoiding burns to workers, as is common in traditional steel pipe cutting methods. This improves the completeness and cleanliness of the cutting process. Furthermore, the noise generated during cutting is concentrated on the inner wall of the steel pipe, reducing noise levels. Additionally, the cutting blade effectively seals the fumes generated during cutting, requiring only vacuuming at both ends of the pipe for complete collection. This multi-benefit approach offers several advantages.

[0027] 3. In this invention, the output shaft of the motor drives the second fixed plate to rotate, causing the grinding plate to rotate and grind the inner wall of the steel pipe to remove rust, dust, and dirt. This polishes and removes rust and dirt from the inner wall of the steel pipe, ensuring the cleanliness of the inner wall when cutting the steel pipe. It also prevents rust and dirt on the inner wall of the steel pipe from affecting the accuracy of cutting. The grinding plate and anti-slip plate abut against the inner wall of the steel pipe, which fixes the mounting column inside the steel pipe. This provides support and fixation force to the steel pipe, preventing the mounting column from sliding inside the steel pipe, and completely fixing the steel pipe and the mounting column together.

[0028] 4. In this invention, the lateral movement of the cutting blade can move rust and dirt laterally, thereby moving the rust and dirt generated when the grinding plate polishes the inner wall of the steel pipe. The rust and dirt can be moved towards the first fixed plate until they are removed from the steel pipe. This allows for the movement and handling of rust and dirt generated when the grinding plate polishes the inner wall of the steel pipe, preventing the accumulation of rust and dirt on the inner wall of the steel pipe and affecting the subsequent cutting process.

The arc-shaped groove on the limiting seat 16 can facilitate contact between the limiting seat 16 and the steel pipe and can provide a limit for the steel pipe.

[0052] The present invention discloses a cutting method for a multi-angle steel pipe cutting device, which includes the following steps:

[0053] S1: First, place the steel pipe to be cut between the limiting seat 16 at the bottom of the extrusion plate 15 and the limiting seat 16 at the top of the base plate 1. Start the second electric telescopic rod 14. The piston rod of the second electric telescopic rod 14 pushes the extrusion plate 15 and causes the limiting seat 16 at the bottom of the extrusion plate 15 to move down to extrude and fix the steel pipe.

[0054] S2: Start the first electric telescopic rod 3. The piston rod of the first electric telescopic rod 3 extends and pushes the mounting column 9 to move laterally and insert into the steel pipe. At the same time, start the third electric telescopic rod 21 on the side of the mounting column 9 near the second fixed plate 11. The piston rod of the third electric telescopic rod 21 retracts, causing several fixed plates 24 to expand outward until the grinding plate 26 contacts the inner wall of the steel pipe. At the same time, start the motor 31. The output shaft of the motor 31 drives the second fixed plate 11 to rotate, causing the grinding plate 26 to rotate and grind the inner wall of the steel pipe to remove rust, dust and dirt.

[0055] S3: The rust and dirt generated by the rotating grinding plate 26 grinding the inner wall of the steel pipe fall between the first fixed plate 10 and the second fixed plate 11 through the guide groove 27 on the grinding plate 26. The rust and dirt accumulate at the bottom of the inner wall of the steel pipe under its own weight. The first electric slider 18 is activated, which moves the cutting blade 37 toward the second fixed plate 11. The second electric slider 32 is activated, which makes the cutting blade 37 at the bottom of the outer wall of the mounting column 9. The air pump is activated to inflate the airbag column 34, which makes the end of the cutting blade 37 contact the inner wall of the steel pipe. At this time, the rust and dirt are on the side of the cutting blade 37 away from the second fixed plate 11. The first electric slider 18 is activated again, which makes the cutting blade 37 move laterally and move the rust and dirt laterally, which can remove the rust and dirt from the inside of the steel pipe.

[0056] S4: Simultaneously activate the third electric telescopic rod 21 on the side of the first fixed plate 10 and the second fixed plate 11, so that the grinding plate 26 and the anti-slip plate 25 abut against the inner wall of the steel pipe, and the steel pipe can be fixed in place. At this time, start the air pump to inflate the airbag column 34 so that the end of the cutting blade 37 contacts the inner wall of the steel pipe. The cutting position of the cutting blade 37 can be adjusted by the first guide rail 17 and the first electric slider 18, and the cutting angle of the cutting blade 37 can be adjusted by the angle adjustment mechanism.

[0057] S5: After adjusting the cutting position and cutting angle of the cutting blade 37, start the second electric slider 32. The second electric slider 32 drives the cutting blade 37 to rotate inside the steel pipe to cut the steel pipe from the inside out.

[0058] When using this invention, the steel pipe to be cut is first placed between the limiting seat 16 at the bottom of the extrusion plate 15 and the limiting seat 16 at the top of the base plate 1. The second electric telescopic rod 14 is then activated. The piston rod of the second electric telescopic rod 14 pushes the extrusion plate 15, causing the limiting seat 16 at the bottom of the extrusion plate 15 to move downwards until the steel pipe is extruded and fixed by the limiting seat 16 at the bottom of the extrusion plate 15 and the limiting seat 16 at the top of the base plate 1, thus pre-fixing the steel pipe.

[0059] After the steel pipe is fixed, the first electric telescopic rod 3 is activated. The piston rod of the first electric telescopic rod 3 extends and pushes the mounting plate 4 to move laterally. The lateral movement of the mounting plate 4 drives the connecting rod 8 and the mounting column 9 to move laterally until the mounting column 9 moves laterally and inserts into the steel pipe.

[0060] When the second fixing plate 11 at the end of the mounting column 9 moves laterally and inserts into the steel pipe, the third electric telescopic rod 21 on the side of the mounting column 9 closest to the second fixing plate 11 is activated. The piston rod of the third electric telescopic rod 21 retracts, causing the connecting rod 23 to gradually move towards a vertical position. When the connecting rod 23 moves towards a vertical position, the end of the connecting rod 23 pushes the fixing plate 24, causing the fixing plate 24 to move away from the second fixing plate 11. The movement of the fixing plate 24 away from the second fixing plate 11 pulls the spring 28 to extend and causes the limiting rod 29 to move into the second mounting hole. The sliding motion causes several fixed plates 24 to expand outwards. The outward expansion of the fixed plates 24 drives the grinding plate 26 to expand outwards until the grinding plate 26 contacts the inner wall of the steel pipe. At the same time, the motor 31 is started. The output shaft of the motor 31 drives the second fixed plate 11 to rotate, causing the grinding plate 26 to rotate and grind the inner wall of the steel pipe to remove rust, dust and dirt. This polishes and removes the rust and dirt from the inner wall of the steel pipe, ensuring the cleanliness of the inner wall of the steel pipe when cutting it, and preventing the rust and dirt on the inner wall of the steel pipe from affecting the accuracy of cutting the steel pipe.

[0061] Furthermore, the rust and dirt generated by the rotating grinding plate 26 grinding the inner wall of the steel pipe can fall into the guide groove 27 on the grinding plate 26. The rust and dirt falling into the guide groove 27 fall between the first fixed plate 10 and the second fixed plate 11 through the guide groove 27, and the fallen rust and dirt accumulate at the bottom of the inner wall of the steel pipe under their own gravity. At this time, the first electric slider 18 can be activated, and the first electric slider 18 slides on the first guide rail 17 to move closer to the second fixed plate 11, thereby driving the cutting blade 37 to move towards the second fixed plate 11 until the cutting blade 37 moves to the side of the second fixed plate 11 and stops. The second electric slider 32 is activated to slide on the second guide rail 20, thereby driving the cutting blade 37 to rotate around the mounting column 9, rotating the cutting blade 37 to the bottom position on the outer wall of the mounting column 9. The air pump is then activated to inflate the two airbag columns 34. Simultaneous inflation causes the two airbag columns 34 to expand, moving the cutting blade 37 away from the mounting column 9 until the end of the cutting blade 37 contacts the inner wall of the steel pipe. At this point, the rust and dirt are located between the cutting blade 37 and the first fixed plate 10. The first electric slider 18 is then activated again, causing the cutting blade 37 to move laterally. This lateral movement of the cutting blade 37 can move the rust and dirt laterally, thereby moving the rust and dirt generated when the grinding plate 26 polishes the inner wall of the steel pipe. The rust and dirt can be moved towards the first fixed plate 10 until they are removed from the steel pipe. This process of moving and handling the rust and dirt generated when the grinding plate 26 polishes the inner wall of the steel pipe prevents the rust and dirt generated during the polishing process from accumulating on the inner wall of the steel pipe and affecting the subsequent cutting process.

[0062] After the inner wall of the steel pipe is polished, the mounting column 9 drives the first fixing plate 10 and the second fixing plate 11 to fully enter the inner wall of the steel pipe. Once the mounting column 9 moves to the predetermined cutting position inside the steel pipe, the third electric telescopic rod 21 on the side of the first fixing plate 10 and the second fixing plate 11 is activated, causing the grinding plate 26 and the anti-slip plate 25 to abut against the inner wall of the steel pipe. This contact between the grinding plate 26 and the anti-slip plate 25 and the inner wall of the steel pipe fixes the mounting column 9 inside the steel pipe, providing support and preventing slippage. This completely secures the steel pipe and the mounting column 9. At this time, the air pump is activated to inflate the two airbag columns 34, causing them to expand and the end of the cutting blade 37 to contact the inner wall of the steel pipe. When used in conjunction with the other two inflatable airbag columns 34, both can be inflated simultaneously, causing the cutting blade 37 to be perpendicular to the inner wall of the steel pipe for cutting. Alternatively, only one of the two inflatable airbag columns 34 can be inflated. The expansion of the inflated airbag column 34 causes the mounting blade holder 36 to tilt, allowing adjustment of the cutting angle of the cutting blade 37. This allows for the creation of a chamfer at the cut edge of the steel pipe by adjusting the cutting angle of the two inflatable airbag columns 34. Furthermore, the combined use of the two inflatable airbag columns 34 allows for adjustment of the cutting angle of the cutting blade 37, resulting in different chamfer angles when cutting the steel pipe. This allows for adjustment as needed, improving the ease of use of the device.

[0063] After the cutting angle of the cutting blade 37 is adjusted, the cutting position of the cutting blade 37 can be adjusted by the cooperation of the first guide rail 17 and the first electric slider 18. This makes it easy to adjust the cutting position of the cutting blade 37 according to actual needs, thereby adjusting the cutting position of the steel pipe.

[0064] After adjusting the cutting position and angle of the cutting blade 37, the second electric slider 32 is activated. The second electric slider 32 rotates around the mounting column 9 on the second guide rail 20, thereby driving the cutting blade 37 to rotate around the mounting column 9 to cut the steel pipe from the inside out. This cutting process, using the cutting blade 37 to cut the steel pipe from the inside out, allows molten iron filings and burrs generated by friction and heating during the cutting process to be produced from the inside out. The cutting process proceeds from the inside out, producing molten iron filings and burrs. These burrs are formed from the inside out by the cutting blade 37, preventing them from rolling up towards the inner wall of the steel pipe. Instead, they roll outwards, allowing the molten iron filings and burrs to roll from the inside to the outside of the steel pipe. This facilitates subsequent polishing of these molten iron filings and burrs, avoiding the traditional method of cutting from the outside in. The molten iron filings and burrs generated during cutting are rolled up to the inner wall of the steel pipe and are difficult to clean. Furthermore, using the cutting blade 37 to cut the steel pipe from the inside out allows for complete collection of the waste generated during cutting. This avoids the waste flying around and affecting the surrounding environment and potentially burning workers, as is common with traditional steel pipe cutting methods. This improves the completeness and cleanliness of the cutting process. Additionally, the noise generated during cutting is concentrated on the inner wall of the steel pipe, reducing noise levels. Moreover, the cutting blade 37 effectively seals the fumes generated during cutting, trapping them inside the pipe. Only vacuuming at both ends of the pipe is needed to completely collect the fumes, achieving multiple benefits in one step.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
