Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of steel pipe processing equipment technology, and in particular to a rectangular tube processing equipment and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] Steel pipes are used for transporting fluids and powdery solids, exchanging heat energy, and manufacturing mechanical parts and containers. They are also an economical steel material. Square pipes are a type of steel pipe, mostly structural square pipes, decorative square pipes, and building square pipes. In the processing and use of rectangular pipes, cutting and welding are the most common operations. The cutting of rectangular pipes is usually done manually using a cutting machine.
[0003] However, rectangular tubes often need to be cut, bent, and welded during use. When cutting V-grooves into rectangular tubes, the angle needs to be adjusted, and the cutting cannot be done continuously. When it needs to be done continuously, the cutting will be skewed because the angle is not adjusted accurately, which makes it impossible to cut V-grooves and bend the rectangular tube accurately.
[0004] Therefore, we need a rectangular tube processing equipment and its usage method to solve the problem that existing cutting equipment cannot continuously and accurately perform V-groove bending on rectangular tubes, and can continuously and accurately perform V-groove bending on rectangular tubes. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to solve the problem that existing cutting equipment cannot continuously and accurately perform V-groove bending on rectangular tubes. In order to solve the above problem, this application provides a rectangular tube processing equipment and its usage method, which can continuously and accurately perform V-groove bending on rectangular tubes.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this application adopt the following technical solutions:
[0007] A rectangular tube processing device includes: a worktable with a working groove and a sliding groove; a cutting device disposed on the worktable for cutting the rectangular tube, the cutting device including: a telescopic motor disposed on the worktable at the right end; a telescopic rod connected to the telescopic motor at the left end; and a cutter connected to the telescopic rod, the cutter being located in the working groove and used to cut the rectangular tube by moving via the telescopic rod.
[0008] The adjustment mechanism is used for clamping and adjusting the angle of the rectangular tube. The adjustment mechanism includes: a drive motor, which is located below the worktable and connected to the worktable; and a sliding assembly, which includes a fixed frame and a sliding block. The sliding assembly is connected to the drive motor and multiple sliding assemblies are provided. The sliding block is located in the sliding groove and the sliding block and the sliding groove cooperate. The fixed frame is located above the sliding block.
[0009] The rectangular tube is cut into a V-groove by passing it through a fixed frame for positioning and fixation. The drive motor drives the sliding block to adjust the angle on the annular groove. After adjustment, the telescopic motor controls the cutter to move and cut the rectangular tube. The drive motor then controls the rectangular tube to make a second adjustment, and the cutter then makes a second cut to complete the V-groove cutting of the rectangular tube.
[0010] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, a guide opening is provided below the working groove.
[0011] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, a guide block is provided below the cutter, and the guide block and the guide opening cooperate with each other.
[0012] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, the sliding groove is an annular T-shaped groove.
[0013] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, the sliding groove is an annular T-shaped groove, which is circularly arranged at 270 degrees.
[0014] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, an annular T-shaped block is provided below the sliding block, and the annular T-shaped block and the annular T-shaped groove cooperate with each other.
[0015] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, two sliding components are provided.
[0016] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, a drive motor is disposed on the right side of the worktable.
[0017] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of this application, a movable groove is also provided on the workbench, the movable groove being used to cooperate with the cutter.
[0018] This application also discloses a method of using a steel pipe cutting device, including:
[0019] Installation involves passing the rectangular tube through the fixed frame for positioning and fixation.
[0020] Adjustment 1: Once the drive motor starts, it controls the movement of the sliding component to adjust the angle of the rectangular tube;
[0021] Cutting step 1: Once the telescopic motor is started, it controls the telescopic rod to move the cutter, causing the cutter to make a preliminary cut on the rectangular tube.
[0022] Adjustment 2: After the initial cutting is completed, the drive motor is started to make a second adjustment to the angle of the rectangular tube;
[0023] Cutting step two: After the second adjustment is completed, the telescopic motor one is started again to cut the rectangular tube into a V-groove for the second time.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, this application uses a rectangular tube to pass through a fixed frame for limiting and fixing. The drive motor drives the rightmost sliding block to move and adjust the angle on the annular groove. After the adjustment is completed, the telescopic motor controls the cutter to move and cut the rectangular tube. After the cutting is completed, the drive motor can control the rectangular tube to adjust the angle again, and then the cutter performs a second cut to complete the V-groove opening of the rectangular tube. This solves the problem that existing cutting equipment cannot continuously and accurately open and bend the rectangular tube with V-grooves, and can continuously and accurately open and bend the rectangular tube with V-grooves.

However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that these embodiments may not be limited to these specific details in practice. In some instances, well-known methods and structures have not been described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring these embodiments. Furthermore, all embodiments can be used in combination with each other.
[0046] Example 1: As Figure 1-5 As shown, a rectangular tube 4 processing device includes:
[0047] Workbench 1, with a working groove and a sliding groove provided on it; Cutting device 2, set on the workbench 1, used to cut rectangular tube 4, the cutting device 2 includes: telescopic motor 22, set on the workbench 1 at the right end of the workbench 1; telescopic rod 23, connected to the telescopic motor 22 at the left end of the telescopic motor 22; cutter 21, connected to the telescopic rod 23, the cutter 21 is located in the working groove, the cutter 21 is used to cut the rectangular tube 4 by moving through the telescopic rod 23.
[0048] Adjustment mechanism 3 is used for clamping and angle adjustment of rectangular tube 4. Adjustment mechanism 3 includes: drive motor 33, which is located below worktable 1 and connected to worktable 1; sliding assembly, which includes fixed frame 31 and sliding block 32, which is connected to drive motor 33. Multiple sliding assemblies are provided. Sliding block 32 is located in sliding groove and cooperates with sliding groove. Fixed frame 31 is located above sliding block 32.
[0049] The rectangular tube 4 is passed through the V-groove and fixed by the fixed frame 31. The drive motor 33 drives the sliding block 32 to adjust the angle on the annular groove. After the adjustment is completed, the telescopic motor 22 controls the cutter 21 to move and cut the rectangular tube 4. The drive motor 33 controls the rectangular tube 4 to make a second adjustment. Then the cutter makes a second cut to complete the V-groove of the rectangular tube 4.
[0050] A guide opening is provided below the working groove, and a guide block is provided below the cutter 21. The guide block and the guide opening cooperate to make the movement of the cutter 21 more stable and to cut the rectangular tube 4 more accurately. The sliding groove is an annular T-groove 12, which is a 270-degree circle. An annular T-block is provided below the sliding block 32. The annular T-block and the annular T-groove 12 cooperate. The 270-degree annular T-groove 12 provides more angles for the rotation of the rectangular tube 4 for cutting. The cooperation between the annular T-block and the T-groove further improves the accuracy and stability of the angle adjustment of the rectangular tube 4. There are two sliding components. The drive motor 33 is located on the right side of the worktable 1. The rightmost sliding component is connected to the drive motor 33. Only a single sliding component needs to be controlled to adjust the angle of the entire rectangular tube 4. The worktable 1 is also provided with a moving groove 11, which is used to cooperate with the cutter 21 to further improve the stability of the movement of the cutter 21 and improve the cutting accuracy.
[0051] The rectangular tube 4 is fixed by passing through the fixed frame 31. The drive motor 33 drives the rightmost sliding block 32 to move and adjust the angle on the annular groove. After the adjustment is completed, the telescopic motor 22 controls the cutter 21 to move and cut the rectangular tube 4. After the cutting is completed, the drive motor 33 can control the rectangular tube 4 to adjust the angle again. Then the cutter 21 performs a second cut to complete the V-groove of the rectangular tube 4. This solves the problem that the existing cutting equipment cannot continuously and accurately perform V-groove bending on the rectangular tube 4. It can continuously and accurately perform V-groove bending on the rectangular tube 4.
[0052] Example 2: Figure 6-7 As shown, this embodiment makes further improvements based on Embodiment 1:
[0053] Drive motor 25 is connected to worktable 1 and is located at the left end below worktable 1. Drive motor 25 is connected to the leftmost sliding component.
[0054] By using drive motor 2 5 located below the workbench 1, the rectangular tube 4 is not driven during the cutting process. After the first cut, drive motor 2 5 starts to stabilize the rectangular tube 4, avoiding the problem of shaking during the cutting process that affects the accuracy. After the second cut, drive motor 1 33 and drive motor 2 5 work together to bend the rectangular tube 4 directly after the V-groove is cut, without having to remove the V-groove-cut rectangular tube 4 before bending. This further accurately and continuously completes the V-groove and bending steps of the rectangular tube 4, further solving the problem that existing cutting equipment cannot continuously and accurately perform V-groove and bending of the rectangular tube 4.
[0055] Example 3: Figure 8-9 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement on embodiment two, by adding a telescopic mechanism 6:
[0056] Telescopic motor 2 61 is connected to the fixed frame 31 and is mounted on the fixed frame 31;
[0057] Telescopic rod 2 62 is connected to telescopic motor 2 61 and is located at the right end of telescopic motor 2 61;
[0058] The clamping claw 63 is connected to the right end of the telescopic rod 23, and the clamping claw 63 and the fixing frame 31 are matched by a dovetail groove structure.
[0059] By adding a telescopic mechanism 6 to the sliding component, which can be controlled by the telescopic motor 61, the clamping claw 63 moves via the telescopic rod 62, allowing the fixed frame 31 to clamp various types of rectangular tubes 4. Furthermore, the telescopic motor 61 and the dovetail groove structure of the fixed frame 31 can clamp various types of rectangular tubes 4 more firmly and accurately, enabling different types of rectangular tubes 4 to be continuously and accurately V-grooved and bent. This further solves the problem that existing cutting equipment cannot continuously and accurately V-grooved and bent various types of rectangular tubes 4, and can continuously and accurately V-grooved and bent various types of rectangular tubes 4.
[0060] Example 4: Figure 1-9 As shown, based on Embodiment 3, this embodiment also provides a method for using a rectangular tube 4 processing device, including:
[0061] Installation: The rectangular tube 4 is passed through the fixed frame 31 for limiting and fixing. The telescopic motor 61 is started, and the moving clamping claw 63 clamps the rectangular tube 4.
[0062] Adjustment 1: Drive motor 33 starts, controlling the movement of the sliding component to adjust the angle of the rectangular tube 4;
[0063] Cutting step 1: Telescopic motor 22 starts, controlling telescopic rod 23 to move cutter 21, so that cutter 21 can perform preliminary cutting on rectangular tube 4;
[0064] Adjustment 2: After the initial cutting is completed, drive motor 33 and drive motor 5 are started to make a second adjustment to the angle of the rectangular tube 4;
[0065] Cutting 2: After the second adjustment is completed, the telescopic motor 22 is started again to cut the rectangular tube 4 into a V-groove for the second time.
[0066] The bending process involves starting drive motor 33 and drive motor 5, which directly bend the rectangular tube 4 after the V-groove has been opened through the annular T-groove 12.
[0067] Although the illustrative specific embodiments of this application have been described above to enable those skilled in the art to understand this application, this application is not limited to the scope of the specific embodiments. For those skilled in the art, all applications utilizing the concept of this application are protected as long as various variations are within the spirit and scope of this application as defined and determined by the appended claims.
