[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0031] Embodiment 1

[0032] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown in the figure, a planetary spiral grooving device for a bellows comprises:

[0033] The planetary gear mechanism comprises a planetary carrier 1 driven to rotate by a power device, a planetary gear 2 rotatably mounted on the planetary carrier 1, and a fixed inner gear ring 3, the planetary gear 2 meshes with the inner gear ring 3, three or four planetary gears 2 are provided, and the planetary gears 2 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction, each planetary gear 2 is respectively mounted on a disk shaft 4, and the disk shaft 4 is mounted on the planetary carrier 1, and a tube cone 11 is provided at the center of the planetary carrier 1 for the corrugated tube 5 to pass through;

[0034] A cutter disc 6 is provided on each disc shaft 4, and each cutter disc 6 has exactly the same structure. The cutter disc 6 is provided with spiral ridges 61, arcuate straight ridges 62 and transition ridges 63 connected between adjacent arcuate straight ridges 62. All the spiral ridges 61 are on the same spiral, and the spacing between two adjacent spiral ridges 61 is equal. Only in one circle of the spiral, a slotting knife is provided between two adjacent spiral ridges 61 (a knife hole 64 for installing the slotting knife is provided on the cutter disc 6), the number of the arcuate straight ridges 62 and the slotting knife are equal and the positions are corresponding, all the arcuate straight ridges 62 are arranged along the same spiral direction, and the arcuate straight ridges 62 extend circumferentially.

[0035] When grooving the bellows 5, the bellows 5 passes through the tube cone, and the spiral ridges 61 on the four cutter discs 6 extend into the troughs of the bellows 5. The power device drives the planetary carrier 1 to rotate, and the planetary carrier 1 drives the planetary gear 2 to rotate and revolve along the inner gear ring 3 at the same time. When the planetary gear 2 rotates, it drives the spiral ridges 61 to rotate, and the spiral ridges 61 drive the bellows 5 to feed axially; when it rotates to the position between the two spiral ridges 61, at this time, due to the lack of the drive of the spiral ridges 61, the bellows 5 cannot be fed axially, and the grooving cutter rotates to cut the troughs. A grooving cutter on each cutter disc 6 simultaneously opens a groove on the same trough to complete a grooving operation. At the same time, the arc-shaped straight edge 62 corresponding to the position of the grooving cutter for grooving is stuck in a trough to position the bellows 5 axially to prevent the bellows 5 from axially moving, resulting in inaccurate grooving position. Then the cutter disc 6 continues to rotate, and when it rotates to the position of the next spiral ridge 61, the spiral ridge 61 drives the corrugated tube 5 to feed axially to perform the next grooving operation.

[0036] In which, due to the revolution of the planetary gear 2, the next slotting position is offset from the previous slotting position.

[0037] In the illustrated embodiment, the planetary gear mechanism is provided with four planetary gears 2, and the projected length of each spiral ridge 61 in the radial direction of the cutter head 6 is twice the trough spacing of the bellows 5. Each time a spiral ridge 61 is rotated, the bellows 5 is driven to axially feed two troughs, and four grooves are opened on each trough.

[0038] In the illustrated embodiment, the planet carrier is a cross, and four disc shafts 4 are respectively mounted at the four ends of the cross. A pipe cone 11 is provided in the middle of the cross for the corrugated pipe 5 to pass through. Preferably, the pipe cone 11 is a conical structure to facilitate the passage of the corrugated pipe 5.

[0039] In order to improve the stability of the system operation and effectively support the bellows 5, in the illustrated embodiment, two sets of planetary gear mechanisms are provided, two crosses are arranged opposite to each other, and the disc shaft 4 is installed between the two crosses. The two sets of planetary gear mechanisms are connected to form a whole, with good motion stability, and the two ends of the bellows 5 are supported respectively, with good support, which facilitates the axial feeding of the bellows 5.

[0040] The transition ridges 63 are preferably spiral-shaped, and all the transition ridges 63 are on the same spiral.

[0041] A driven driving wheel 7 is fixed on one of the crosses, and the driven driving wheel 7 is meshed with an active driving wheel 8. The active driving wheel 8 is driven to rotate by a power device, and the active driving wheel 8 drives the driven driving wheel 7 to rotate, thereby driving the planet carrier 1 to rotate.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] The structure and principle of the second embodiment are basically the same as those of the first embodiment, and the only difference is that the projection length of the spiral ridge 61 in the radial direction of the cutter head 6 is equal to the trough spacing of the corrugated tube 5. Each time a spiral ridge 61 is rotated, the corrugated tube 5 is driven to axially feed a trough, and each trough is provided with four grooves.

[0044] Embodiment 3

[0045] The structure and principle of the third embodiment are basically the same as those of the first embodiment, and the only difference is that three planetary gears 2 are provided on the planetary frame 1, and the projected length of each spiral ridge 61 in the radial direction of the cutter disc 6 is twice the trough spacing of the bellows 5. Each time a spiral ridge 61 is rotated, the bellows 5 is driven to axially feed two troughs, and three grooves are provided on the troughs every other trough. The planetary frame 1 is a Y-shaped frame, and the three disc shafts 6 are respectively installed between the opposite ends of the two Y-shaped frames.

[0046] Embodiment 4

[0047] The structure and principle of the third embodiment are basically the same as those of the first embodiment, and the only difference is that three planetary wheels 2 are provided on the planetary frame 1, and the projected length of the spiral ridge 61 in the radial direction of the cutter disc 6 is equal to the trough spacing of the bellows 5. Each time a spiral ridge 61 is rotated, the bellows 5 is driven to axially feed a trough, and three grooves are provided on each trough. The planetary frame 1 is a Y-shaped frame, and the three disc shafts 6 are respectively installed between the opposite ends of two Y-shaped frames.

[0048] Embodiment 5

All the spiral ridges 61 are on the same spiral. The distances between two adjacent spiral ridges 61 are equal. The number of arcuate straight ridges 62 and the slotting cutter are equal and their positions correspond. All the arcuate straight ridges 62 are arranged along the same spiral direction.

[0052] The radial projection length of the spiral ridges 61 on the cutter disc 6 and the guide disc is twice the wave trough spacing of the corrugated tube 5 .

[0053] When grooving the bellows 5, the spiral ridges 61 on the cutter disc 6 and the limit disc extend into the troughs of the bellows 5 respectively, and at the same time drive the bellows 5 to feed axially. Every time the spiral ridge 61 rotates, the bellows 5 is driven to feed axially two troughs, and two grooves are opened on the trough every other trough.

[0054] Embodiment 6

[0056] A cutter disc 6 is respectively provided on two disc shafts 4 located on a diagonal line;

[0057] A guide disk is provided on each of the two disk shafts 4 located on the other diagonal line. The guide disk is provided with a spiral ridge 61, an arcuate straight ridge 62 and a transition ridge 63 connected between adjacent arcuate straight ridges 62.
