[0028] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the copper tube riveting equipment provided in the embodiments of this application includes a frame 1, a turntable 2, and an indexing device 3 mounted on the frame 1 for driving the turntable 2 to rotate. The frame 1 is provided with a copper tube feeding mechanism 4, a turntable loading mechanism 5, a riveting mechanism 6, and a unloading mechanism 7 arranged around the turntable 2.

[0030] In actual use, the copper tube is fed onto the turntable 2 by the turntable feeding mechanism 5 in conjunction with the copper tube feeding mechanism 4. Then the turntable 2 rotates, so that the copper tube is riveted by the riveting mechanism 6. After the copper tube is riveted, it is unloaded by the unloading mechanism 7.

[0031] The above design enables rapid feeding and riveting of copper tubes, improving riveting efficiency.

[0032] Specifically: such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the turntable 2 includes a spring 21, a slider 22, a first disc 23 fixedly connected to the output end of the indexer 3, and a second disc 24 coaxially connected to the first disc 23. The upper surface of the first disc 23 has several radially extending grooves circumferentially arranged. The second disc 24 has several waist-shaped grooves that communicate with the grooves, penetrating the second disc 24. The slider 22 includes a first block 221 slidably connected to the grooves and a second block 222 slidably connected to the waist-shaped grooves. 222 is fixedly connected. The upper end of the second block 222 protrudes from the upper surface of the second disk 24. The spring 21 is located in the slide groove and its two ends abut against the first block 221 and the first disk 23 respectively. The slide groove includes a bottom wall and a side wall. The side wall is provided with a first semicircular groove 201 on one side of the outer circumference of the second disk 24. The side of the slider 22 is provided with a second semicircular groove 202 corresponding to the first semicircular groove 201. The first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202 are closed to form an installation hole. The slide groove is provided with a material discharge hole that communicates with the installation hole.

[0033] In actual use, the turntable feeding mechanism 5 compresses the spring 21 by acting on the slider 22. Then, the copper tube feeding mechanism 4 feeds the copper tube between the first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202. The turntable feeding mechanism 5 then stops driving the slider 22, causing the spring 21 to reset and the slider 22 to reset as well. The first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202 form a circular groove, at which point the copper tube is fixed within the circular groove by the slider 22 and the first disc 23. During unloading, the slider 22 is driven to compress the spring 21, and the copper tube falls along the discharge hole.

[0034] In the above design, the structure of the disc and the specific implementation method can quickly realize the feeding, fixing and unloading of copper tubes, improve work efficiency and save on fixture costs.

[0035] Specifically, as shown in Figure 5, the turntable feeding mechanism 5 includes a first support 51 mounted on the frame 1, a first cylinder 52 mounted on the first support 51, a fixed block 53 mounted on the output end of the first cylinder 52, a first plate 54 and a second plate 55 symmetrically mounted on the fixed block 53, and a push block 56 mounted on the first plate 54. The lower end face of the first plate 54 is slidably connected to the upper end face of the second disc 24. The push block 56 is vertically provided with a flow channel 57 that connects with the copper tube feeding mechanism 4. The first plate 54 is provided with a first hole 501 corresponding to the lower end of the flow channel 57. After the copper tube enters the flow channel 57 through the copper tube feeding mechanism 4, it enters the space between the first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202 through the first hole 501.

[0036] In actual use, the fixed block 53 is driven by the first cylinder 52 to move towards the slider 22, so that the first block 221 pushes the slider 22 to move along the slide groove to compress the spring 21. Then, the copper tube of the pipeline feeding mechanism enters the flow channel 57 and passes through the first hole 501 into the space between the first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202. At this time, the lower end of the copper tube is lifted by the second plate 55. Then the first cylinder 52 is reset, so that the first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202 close to form a friction limit on the copper tube.

[0037] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the turntable feeding mechanism 5 facilitate the driving of the slider 22 and the copper tube falling between the first semicircular groove 201 and the second semicircular groove 202, effectively improving the feeding efficiency.

[0038] Specifically: such as Figure 6 As shown, the copper tube feeding mechanism 4 includes a vibratory plate 41 mounted on the frame 1 and a transparent tube 42 connected to the vibratory plate 41. The lower end of the transparent tube 42 is connected to the flow channel 57.

[0039] In actual use, the copper tube is transported to the transparent tube 42 by the vibratory plate 41, and then the copper tube automatically enters the turntable feeding mechanism 5 along the transparent tube 42 and enters the turntable 2.

[0040] In the above design, the structural design of the copper tube feeding mechanism facilitates the detection of the position and status of the copper tube flow.

[0041] Specifically: such as Figure 8 As shown, the riveting mechanism 6 includes a second support 61 mounted on the frame 1, an upper pressing module 62 slidably mounted on the second support 61, and a lower pressing module 63 corresponding to the upper pressing module 62.

[0042] In actual use, when the turntable 2 drives the copper tube to rotate to the riveting position, the upper pressing module 62 moves upward and the lower pressing module 63 moves downward to rivet the copper tube.

[0043] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the riveting mechanism 6 can quickly realize the riveting of copper tubes.

[0044] Specifically: such as Figure 8As shown, the lower pressing module 63 includes a lower pressing plate 631 slidably connected to the second support 61, a first electric cylinder 632 fixedly mounted on the second support 61 for driving the lower pressing plate 631 to rise and fall, and a first pressing head A633, a first pressing head B634, and a first pressing head C635 fixedly mounted on the lower end face of the lower pressing plate 631. The upper pressing module 62 includes an upper pressing plate 621 slidably connected to the second support 61, a second electric cylinder 622 fixedly mounted on the second support 61 for driving the upper pressing plate 621 to rise and fall, a first pressing head a623 corresponding to the first pressing head A633, a first pressing head b624 corresponding to the first pressing head B634, and a first pressing head c625 corresponding to the first pressing head C635 fixedly mounted on the upper end face of the upper pressing plate 621.

[0045] In actual use, the lower pressure plate 631 is driven to move downward by the first electric cylinder 632, and the upper pressure plate 621 is driven to move upward by the second electric cylinder 622. The turntable 2 rotates three times continuously and the upper pressure module 62 and the lower pressure module 63 open and close three times, so that the first pressure head A633 and the first pressure head a623 expand the mouth of the copper tube. The first pressure head B634 and the first pressure head b624 fold the copper tube. The first pressure head C635 and the first pressure head c625 realize the embossing of the copper tube.

[0046] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the upper pressing module 62 and the lower pressing module 63 enable the successive riveting of the copper tube, ensuring the pressing effect.

[0047] Specifically: such as Figure 7 As shown, the feeding mechanism 7 includes a third support 71 mounted on the frame 1, a third cylinder 72 horizontally fixed on the third support 71, an upper push block 73 fixedly mounted at the output end of the third cylinder 72 for pushing the slider 22, and a feeding pipe 74 located below the upper push block 73. The extension and retraction direction of the third cylinder 72 is along the radial direction of the first disc 23.

[0048] In actual use, the upper push block 73 and the lower push block are driven by the No. 3 cylinder 72 to move towards the slider 22, so that the upper push block 73 pushes the slider 22. When the slider 22 is pushed by the upper push block 73, the copper tube falls off the disc.

[0049] In the above design, the structure of the feeding mechanism 7 facilitates the rapid and automatic feeding of copper tubes.

[0050] Specifically: such as Figure 7 As shown, the feeding mechanism 7 also includes an air blowing head 75 disposed on the third support 71, and the upper push block 56 is provided with a through hole 701. The airflow of the air blowing head 75 passes through the through hole 701 to blow the copper tube.

[0051] In actual use, air is blown from above the copper tube through the air blower 75 to accelerate the copper tube's descent into the feed tube 74.

[0052] In the above design, the air blowing head 75 can assist the copper tube to fall off the turntable 2.

[0053] The copper tube riveting method uses a copper tube riveting device. The copper tube is fed onto the turntable 2 by the turntable feeding mechanism 5 in conjunction with the copper tube feeding mechanism 4. Then the turntable 2 rotates, so that the copper tube is riveted by the riveting mechanism 6. After the copper tube is riveted, it is unloaded by the unloading mechanism 7.

[0054] In further detail, it should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
