Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bare pipe processing, in particular to an automatic bare pipe flattening device. Background Art
[0002] The rapid development of e-commerce business has brought with it a continuous increase in demand for small-package products, especially cross-border e-commerce. Amazon sellers have reached the extreme of product packaging, so for manufacturers on the product production side, they are required to continuously develop small-package products that can meet customer needs. In order to produce small-package products, many connectors are inevitably used. Among them, horticultural products mainly use plastic-coated steel pipe materials. The connection of this material requires a large number of galvanized bare pipes. The so-called bare pipe is a steel pipe of different diameters cut into the required length, generally about 10 cm. It is used as an insert to connect the upper and lower parts or multiple parts to make it firm and not easy to fall off, so the bare pipe is required to be flattened. So far, the flattening operation of bare pipes mainly relies on manual flattening through a small punching machine, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has low safety, and the quality of manual operation cannot be guaranteed. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic bare pipe flattening device to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the bare pipe flattening operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, has low safety and cannot ensure quality.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides an automatic flattening device for bare pipes, including a material plate, a bracket assembly, a pipe pressing assembly and a material blocking assembly. The material plate is connected to the bracket assembly and is tilted so that one end of the material plate is higher than the other end of the material plate. A protrusion is provided on the bracket assembly. The material plate is movably arranged above the protrusion along a direction perpendicular to the tilt of the material plate. A reset member is provided between the material plate and the protrusion to drive the material plate to reset upward along the direction perpendicular to the tilt of the material plate. The pipe pressing assembly includes a first driving member, a first pressing head and a second pressing head. The first driving member is connected to the bracket assembly and drives the first pressing head to move along the direction perpendicular to the tilt of the material plate so that the first pressing head presses down the bare pipe on the material plate along the direction perpendicular to the tilt of the material plate. The second pressing head is provided on the protrusion. A first through hole is provided on the material plate for one end of the second pressing head to pass through. The material blocking assembly is connected to the bracket assembly and is used to block or allow the bare pipe on the material plate to slide downward.
[0005] After adopting the above structure, the automatic flattening device for bare pipes of the present invention has the following advantages: bare pipes are loaded onto the material plate and the bare pipes are blocked from falling by the material blocking assembly, which also plays a positioning role for the bare pipes, so that the position of the bare pipes on the material plate is determined, and the first driving member drives the first pressing head to press down to the upper surface of the bare pipe. At the same time, since the material plate is movable, the material plate and the bare pipe are synchronously lowered during the pressing process, so that the second pressing head is pressed to the lower surface of the bare pipe, and the bare pipe is flattened at the upper and lower positions at the same time. After the flattening is completed, the first driving member drives the first pressing head to reset, and the reset member also resets the material plate, and the material blocking assembly is away from the moving path of the bare pipe, so that the bare pipe continues to slide downward to complete the unloading; automatic flattening and unloading are realized in the entire flattening process, which saves time and effort, and the automated operation is highly safe, and the flattening degree of the bare pipe is uniform, thereby ensuring the processing quality of the bare pipe; in addition, in the present invention, the flattening of the upper and lower ends of the bare pipe is realized only by a first driving member, which simplifies the structure and reduces the cost, and the movable material plate can also prevent the second pressing head from blocking the bare pipe during the process of the bare pipe sliding down after loading.
[0006] As an improvement, the cross-section of the material plate is V-shaped; with this structure, the V-shaped material plate can limit the bare pipe to prevent the bare pipe from moving during the flattening process.

[0008] As an improvement, the pipe pressing assembly also includes a connecting plate and a guide rod, the connecting plate is connected to the bracket assembly, the first driving member is connected to the connecting plate, the first driving member is an electric cylinder and the piston rod of the electric cylinder is connected to the guide rod, the guide rod is slidably connected to the connecting plate and the sliding direction is perpendicular to the inclination direction of the material plate; with this structure, the guide rod plays a guiding role in the process of the first driving member driving the first pressing head to press down, preventing the position of the first pressing head pressing on the bare pipe from shifting, thereby improving the processing quality of the bare pipe.
[0009] As an improvement, the material blocking assembly includes a second driving member and a material blocking rod, the second driving member is connected to the bracket assembly, the second driving member drives the material blocking rod to move in a direction perpendicular to the inclination direction of the material plate and makes the material blocking rod located on the moving path of the bare tube on the material plate; with this structure, when the bare tube is loaded, the second driving member drives the material blocking rod to move to the moving path where the bare tube slides down, which not only prevents the bare tube from continuing to slide down, but also plays a role in positioning the bare tube. After the flattening operation, the second driving member drives the material blocking rod to leave the sliding path of the bare tube, so that the bare tube can be unloaded normally.
[0010] As an improvement, the bracket assembly includes a first bracket and a second bracket, the material plate, the first driving member and the protrusion are all arranged on the second bracket, and the first bracket is provided with an arc hole, and the fixing bolt passes through the arc hole and is threadedly connected to the second bracket; with this structure, the setting of the arc hole makes the inclination angle of the second bracket adjustable, and the inclination of the material plate, the first driving member and the protrusion is adjusted, so that the inclination of the material plate can enable the bare pipe to have a normal sliding speed on the material plate, and this structure is more convenient when adjusting the inclination.
[0011] As an improvement, a material blocking assembly is connected to the bracket assembly, and the material blocking assembly includes a third driving member and a material blocking head. The third driving member drives the material blocking head to move in a direction perpendicular to the inclination of the material plate and moves the material blocking head to the feeding path of the bare pipe.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a bare pipe automatic flattening device comprises a material plate 1, a bracket assembly 2, a pipe pressing assembly 3 and a material blocking assembly 4, wherein the material plate 1 is connected to the bracket assembly 2 and is tilted so that one end of the material plate 1 is higher than the other end of the material plate 1, wherein the bare pipe is loaded from the higher end and unloaded from the lower end, and in this embodiment, the bare pipe is loaded from the left end of the material plate 1 and unloaded from the right end of the material plate 1, and the bare pipe is loaded from the left end of the material plate 1 by a lifting machine to realize automatic loading; the cross-section of the material plate 1 is V-shaped to accommodate bare pipes of various diameters and can limit the bare pipes.
[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, a protrusion 5 is provided on the bracket assembly 2, and the material plate 1 is movably arranged above the protrusion 5 along a tilting direction perpendicular to the material plate 1, and a reset member is provided between the material plate 1 and the protrusion 5 to drive the material plate 1 to reset upward along the tilting direction perpendicular to the material plate 1. Specifically, the protrusion 5 is connected to a plurality of guide rods 7 arranged along the tilting direction perpendicular to the material plate 1, and a floating plate 8 is slidably connected to the guide rods 7. The material plate 1 is connected to the upper end of the floating plate 8, and the reset member is a spring. A spring is sleeved on each guide rod 7, and the upper and lower ends of the spring are respectively against the floating plate 8 and the protrusion 5.
[0024] like Figure 1As shown, the tube pressing assembly 3 includes a first driving member 31, a first pressing head 32 and a second pressing head 33. The first driving member 31 is connected to the bracket assembly 2 and drives the first pressing head 32 to move along a direction perpendicular to the tilt of the material plate 1 so that the first pressing head 32 presses down the bare tube on the material plate 1 along the direction perpendicular to the tilt of the material plate 1. The second pressing head 33 is arranged on the protrusion 5, that is, the first driving member 31 and the first pressing head 32 are arranged above the material plate 1, and the second pressing head 33 is arranged below the material plate 1. The first through hole 6 through which one end of the second pressing head 33 passes, and the second through hole 9 for the second pressing head 33 to pass is provided on the floating plate 8. When the first pressing head 32 is not pressed down, the second pressing head 33 is lower than the material plate 1, that is, at this time, the second pressing head 33 does not extend into the material plate 1. Only when the first pressing head 32 is pressed down to make the material plate 1 sink, the second pressing head 33 is exposed through the first through hole 6. The first pressing head 32 and the second pressing head 33 are both arranged in a direction perpendicular to the material plate 1 and facing the material plate 1 and have corresponding positions.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the tube pressing assembly 3 also includes a connecting plate 34 and a guide rod 35. The connecting plate 34 is connected to the bracket assembly 2. The first driving member 31 is connected to the connecting plate 34. The first driving member 31 is an electric cylinder and the piston rod of the electric cylinder is connected to the guide rod 35. The guide rod 35 is slidably connected to the connecting plate 34 and the sliding direction is perpendicular to the tilting direction of the material plate 1.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the bracket assembly 2 includes a first bracket 21 and a second bracket 22, and the material plate 1, the first driving member 31 and the protrusion 5 are all arranged on the second bracket 22, wherein the second bracket 22 is L-shaped to form the protrusion 5, and an arc hole 10 is provided on the first bracket 21, and the fixing bolt passes through the arc hole 10 and is threadedly connected to the second bracket 22.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the material blocking assembly 4 is connected to the bracket assembly 2 and is used to block or allow the bare pipe on the material plate 1 to slide downward, such as Figure 5 As shown, the material blocking assembly 4 includes a second driving member 41 and a material blocking rod 42.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the bracket assembly 2 is connected to a material blocking assembly 11, and the material blocking assembly 11 includes a third driving member 111 and a material blocking head 112. The third driving member 111 drives the material blocking head 112 to move along an inclined direction perpendicular to the material plate 1 and enables the material blocking head 112 to move to a loading path of the bare pipe for loading. In this embodiment, the third driving member 111 is connected to the material plate 1.
[0029] like Figure 1As shown, the material plate 1 is connected with an in-place sensor 12 for detecting whether the bare pipe is in place, and the in-place sensor 12 is electrically connected to the pipe pressing assembly 3 and the material blocking assembly 4.

When in use, the present invention is connected to the frame 13 through the second bracket 22, and the frame 13 is provided with a distribution box 14 and a display screen 15. The corresponding processed bare pipe diameter is input through the display screen 15 to change the downward stroke of the first driving member 31. Among them, the in-place sensor 12 can select a sensor in the prior art such as a distance measuring sensor, which is installed at a fixed position of the material plate 1, and the fixed position is the position of the bare pipe during the flattening operation. The in-place sensor 12 detects whether there is a bare pipe at this position. Its specific working principle is the prior art and will not be repeated here.
[0030] The bare tube is loaded onto the material plate 1 and is blocked from falling by the material blocking assembly 4, which also plays a positioning role for the bare tube, so that the position of the bare tube on the material plate 1 is determined, and the first driving member 31 drives the first pressing head 32 to press down to the upper surface of the bare tube. At the same time, since the material plate 1 is movable, the material plate 1 and the bare tube are synchronously lowered during the pressing process, so that the second pressing head 33 is pressed to the lower surface of the bare tube, completing the simultaneous flattening of the upper and lower positions of the bare tube. After the flattening is completed, the first driving member 31 drives the first pressing head 32 to reset, and the reset member also resets the material plate 1, and the material blocking assembly 4 is away from the moving path of the bare tube so that the bare tube continues to slide downward to complete the unloading; automatic flattening and unloading are achieved in the entire flattening process, which saves time and effort, and the automated operation is highly safe, and the flattening degree of the bare tube is uniform, thereby ensuring the processing quality of the bare tube; in addition, in the present invention, the flattening of the upper and lower ends of the bare tube is achieved only by a first driving member 31, which simplifies the structure and reduces the cost, and the movable material plate 1 can also prevent the second pressing head 33 from blocking the bare tube during the process of the bare tube sliding down during loading.
