Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of capillary heater processing, and in particular to a manufacturing device and a manufacturing method of a capillary heater. Background Art

[0002] Pipe heater is an energy-saving device for pre-heating materials. It is installed before the material equipment to directly heat the material, so that it can circulate and heat at high temperature, and ultimately achieve the purpose of saving energy. It is widely used in the pre-heating of heavy oil, asphalt, clean oil and other fuel oils. The capillary heater generally refers to a tubular heater with a diameter of ≤4mm.

[0003] When manufacturing a capillary heater, the assembled capillary needs to be shrunk so that the diameter of the capillary reaches the required diameter. The shrinking process is generally completed using a heat shrink tube machine. However, after the existing shrinking process of the tube, the tube needs to be manually removed from the position of the shrinking machine. During the removal process, the tube mouth will inevitably come into contact with the shrinking machine, which may easily cause the tube mouth to deform and affect the processing quality of the tube.

[0004] The Chinese invention patent with patent application number CN202210163294.4 records an automatic tube shrinking machine, which is equipped with a heating mechanism and heat-expanding silicone. In a shrinking mold, when the heating mechanism is working, the heat-expanding silicone expands to shrink the tube. When the heating mechanism stops working, the heat-expanding silicone shrinks to facilitate the removal of the tube and avoid damage to the tube. However, the staff still needs to manually remove the capillary in the above-mentioned device, and the surface temperature of the capillary after shrinking is relatively high. The staff is easily burned when removing the tube, which reduces the safety and reliability of the tube shrinking machine. Summary of the invention

At the same time, due to the high density of the internal magnesium oxide powder, the insulation and the relatively high voltage resistance, the safety performance of the heater is greatly improved.

The two groups of first shifting teeth 6413 can respectively engage and push the two groups of vertical teeth 6412 to move forward and backward. The advantage of such a setting is that when the rotating mechanism 62 drives multiple supporting plates 631 to unload the capillary heaters that have completed tube shrinkage in sequence, it can simultaneously drive the placement box 643 to move back and forth, ensuring that the capillary heaters can be stacked in the placement box 643 in an orderly and neat manner. At the same time, the number of power sources is reduced, the energy consumption of the manufacturing device is reduced, and the economy and practicality of the manufacturing device are improved.

[0045] The second movable unit 642 includes two pairs of rectangular grooves 6421 symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the placement box 643, and two pairs of rectangular plates 6422 are symmetrically slidably connected in the two pairs of rectangular grooves 6421. The adjacent sides of the two pairs of rectangular plates 6422 respectively penetrate the two pairs of rectangular grooves 6421 and are fixedly connected to the same lifting plate 6423. The second movable unit 642 also includes two pairs of first electric push rods 6424 symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate 6411, and the output ends of the two teams of first electric push rods 6424 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the two pairs of rectangular plates 6422, so that the lifting plate 6423 can be driven to move up and down through the extension and retraction of the first electric push rods 6424, so that the lifting plate 6423 can be gradually driven to move downward as the capillary heater on the top of the lifting plate 6423 is placed, thereby cooperating with the first movable unit 641 to stack the capillary heaters neatly layer by layer.

[0046] Working principle: The outer tube 40 of the capillary heater to be shrunk is inserted into the rubber plug 232 and pressed against the circular plate 231, and then the capillary heater is pushed through the heating tube 31 and the tube shrinking die 4 by the lateral moving mechanism 21, and at the same time, the suction pump 6335 is started to blow hot air to the outer surface of the outer tube 40 through the air inlet pipe 34, the blowing pipe 35 and the multiple hot air pipes 33 to complete the heating work of the outer tube 40, and then the tube shrinking die 4 performs the first tube shrinking process on the heated outer tube 40; After the left end of the outer tube 40 passes through the tube shrinking die head 4, the output ends of the four third electric push rods 5222 push the two teams of arc clamping plates 521 to approach each other until the left end of the outer tube 40 is clamped, and then the second electric push rod 511 pulls the outer tube 40 to the left through the pulling plate 512 and the arc clamping plate 521, so that the guiding and pulling operation of the capillary heater can be completed together with the pushing component 2 to ensure the smooth progress of the tube shrinking process; When the outer tube 40 completely passes through the tube shrinking die 4, the output ends of the four third electric push rods 5222 respectively push the two teams of arc clamping plates 521 away from each other to gradually loosen the capillary heater, and then the right end of the capillary heater first moves downward and falls on the uppermost bracket 632 through the through groove 61, and as the arc clamping plate 521 continues to rotate until it completely enters the receiving groove 5221, the left end of the capillary heater will also fall into the bracket 632, and then the suction pump 6335 can form a negative pressure between the inner wall of the bracket 632 and the outer wall of the capillary heater through the air outlet pipe 6334, the first air cavity 6331, the second air cavity 6332 and the circular hole 6333 to conveniently suck the capillary heater tightly; Then, the second motor 621 drives the plurality of brackets 631 to rotate through the rotating plate 622, so that the capillary heater in the bracket 632 rotates from the uppermost side to the lowermost side, and then closes the solenoid valve in the lowermost second air cavity 6332, so that the capillary heater in the lowermost bracket 632 can fall into the placement box 643; Then, the first moving unit 641 drives the placement box 643 to move back and forth, and cooperates with the second moving unit 642 to drive the tubes stacked in the placement box 643 to move downward the same distance each time the placement box 643 moves to the front or back side, so that the capillary heaters can be neatly stacked layer by layer, thus completing the initial shrinking process of the capillary heater.
