Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for forming a pipe and the pipe, in particular to a method for forging and forming the pipe through an upper forming die and a lower forming die and the pipe. Background Art
[0002] See also Figures 11 to 14 , a method for forging and drawing thick and thin pipe fittings is commonly used:
[0003] Step A, firstly, a hollow columnar raw material is processed into a blank material 1, and the blank material is extended along the axis to form a first side surface 2, a second side surface 3 along the axis opposite to the first side surface 2, and an outer peripheral surface 4 connecting the first side surface 2 and the second side surface 3, and the blank material 1 has a through groove 5 inside.
[0004] Step B: Perform the first tube drawing. Place the blank 1 in the forging and drawing die 6, and extend the forging and drawing head 7 into the through groove 5 of the blank 1 to apply force and pressure, so that the second side surface 3 and the outer peripheral surface 4 produce the first stage of deformation. At this time, the diameter of the second side surface 3 and the outer peripheral surface 4 is smaller than the diameter of the first side surface 2.
[0005] Step C: pulling out the forging tap 7 for the first time to separate the forging tap 7 from the through groove 5 of the blank 1.
[0006] Step D: Perform the second tube drawing. Place the blank 1 in the forging and drawing die 6, and extend the forging and drawing head 7 into the through groove 5 of the blank 1 to apply force and pressure, so that the first side surface 2 undergoes the second stage of deformation. At this time, the diameters of the first side surface 2, the second side surface 3 and the outer peripheral surface 4 are the same, and the outer diameters of the first side surface 2 and the second side surface 3 are greater than the outer diameter of the outer peripheral surface 4.
[0007] Step E: Pull out the forged tap 7 for the second time, so that the forged tap 7 is separated from the through groove 5 of the blank 1, so as to form a finished product of a thick or thin pipe 8.
[0008] Although the finished product can be obtained by forging and drawing by the above method, since the original thickness and hardness of each blank material 1 are slightly different, the length of the first side surface 2 will be inaccurate when the forging tap 7 is drawn out for the second time, and the crystal structure of the blank material 1 is easily destroyed during the forging and drawing operation, resulting in the disadvantage of poor strength.
