[0028] Working principle and advantages of the present invention: When the tube straightening device for aircraft landing gear is used, the working process is as follows:
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the tube blank that needs to be straightened and adjusted is inserted from the left side of the first conductive roller group 33 into the circular hole 35 formed by the two grooved rollers 17, and the pump wheel 3 is started to work, so that the impeller shaft in the pump wheel 3 synchronously drives the two half shafts to rotate, so that the two half shafts synchronously drive the turntable 5 and the pulley 6 to rotate, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, while the turntable 5 rotates, the pin 19 and the slide 20 drive the connecting rod 1 21, the frame 8, the connecting rod 22 and the upper pressing plate 10 to move up and down. When the frame 8 moves down, it synchronously drives the rack 23 to move down, so that the rack 23 drives the outer ring of the ratchet 9 to rotate counterclockwise. At this time, the outer ring of the ratchet 9 cannot drive the inner ring to rotate through the pawl, thereby not driving the shaft rod 13 to rotate. That is, when the frame 8 and the upper pressing plate 10 move down, the first conductive roller group 33 and the second conductive roller group 34 do not transport the tube blank. When the frame 8 moves up, It synchronously drives the rack 23 to move upward, so that the rack 23 drives the outer ring of the ratchet 9 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the outer ring of the ratchet 9 can drive the inner ring to rotate synchronously clockwise through the pawl, so that the inner ring drives the shaft rod 13 to rotate, and then the shaft rod 13 drives the two shaft rods 15 to rotate synchronously through the bevel gear set 1 31, so that the shaft rod 15 drives the corresponding groove roller 17 to rotate through the bevel gear set 2 32, so that the first conduction roller set 33 and the second conduction roller set 34 convey the tube blank, thereby realizing intermittent conveying of the tube blank.
[0030] As described above, as the tube billet is gradually conveyed, when the tube billet enters the electric heating coil 12, the electric heating coil 12 is used to heat the tube billet so that the stress in the tube billet is released and it is convenient for subsequent straightening. When the heated tube billet segment enters the lower support plate 11, the upper pressing plate 10 is pressed downward, so that the tube billet is straightened, and the tube billet remains stationary when the upper pressing plate 10 is pressed downward, thereby ensuring the straightening effect of the tube billet.
[0031] As mentioned above, the belt pulley 6 rotates and drives the convex ring 26 to rotate through the belt 25. Figure 2 As shown, after the convex ring 26 rotates, it synchronously drives the swivel 28 to rotate, so that the swivel 28 drives the brush strip 29 to rotate. When the straightened tube blank section enters the swivel 28, the brush strip 29 is used to clean the dandruff and debris on the surface of the tube blank, thereby reducing labor costs and being safe and reliable.
[0032] When the pump wheel 3 is working, air is transported to the annular groove 27 through the air pipe 24, and then blown to the surface of the tube through the air hole 30 on the rotating ring 28, so as to clean the surface of the tube and cool it down at the same time, thereby maintaining the strength of the straightened tube and ensuring the straightening adjustment effect.
[0033] As the tube billet is conveyed, when the straightened and cooled end of the tube billet enters the circular hole 35 formed by the two grooved rollers 17 in the second conduction roller group 34, the second conduction roller group 34 is used to convey the tube billet, so that when the tube billet leaves the first conduction roller group 33, it can continue to be conveyed so as to straighten and adjust the tail of the tube billet, thereby ensuring that the entire process does not require manual control and the operation is safe and reliable.
[0034] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
