Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal pipe processing, and in particular relates to a special mandrel head and a copper pipe rolling mill for copper pipe rolling and nitrogen filling to prevent oxidation. Background Art
[0002] In the copper tube manufacturing industry, rolling is one of the basic process steps to form copper tubes. The copper tube rolling mill transforms copper materials into tubular products with a certain length and wall thickness through continuous rolling. In this process, cooling water residues will adhere to the surface and inner wall of the copper tube. These cooling water residues may form residues under high temperature and pressure, affecting the inner surface quality of the copper tube and subsequent processing procedures. Therefore, cleaning of the copper tube after rolling is very important to ensure product quality.
[0003] In the traditional copper tube rolling process, in order to prevent the copper tube surface from oxidation reaction at high temperature, the copper tube is usually purged with compressed air after rolling to remove the residual cooling water in the tube. However, this method has several disadvantages: First, it increases production steps and reduces production efficiency. Second, the compressed air may not completely remove all oxygen in the tube, and the anti-oxidation effect is limited. Finally, this process also increases energy consumption and production costs. In addition, most of the existing mandrel heads are universal and do not have nitrogen filling function. Moreover, the existing mandrel heads are in a high temperature environment for a long time during the rolling process, and their lifespan is short, which requires replacement. The cumbersome replacement steps also increase labor time. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and solve a series of problems caused by using compressed air to blow away the residual cooling water in the copper tube after the copper tube is rolled (such as extended production cycle, increased energy consumption, increased equipment maintenance costs, etc.). A special mandrel head for nitrogen filling and anti-oxidation during copper tube rolling is provided, which effectively prevents cooling water from entering the inner wall of the copper tube, achieves anti-oxidation, and omits the additional purging step.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A special mandrel head for copper tube rolling and nitrogen filling to prevent oxidation, comprising: The center rod is cylindrical in shape, with a diameter matching the specifications of the copper tube rolling tube, and has a channel for conveying nitrogen inside; The nitrogen filling hole is arranged radially along the center rod, one end of which is connected to the nitrogen source, and the other end of which extends into the inner wall of the copper tube through the gas outlet end.
[0006] The nitrogen filling mandrel head of the present invention adopts a compact external structure and a precise internal nitrogen filling hole design, which is specifically designed to solve the problems of cooling water intrusion and inner wall oxidation during the copper tube rolling process; as a special component, the distribution and aperture of the nitrogen filling holes are designed to match the specifications of the copper tube rolling mill, which can adapt to the rolling of copper tubes of different diameters and ensure nitrogen filling efficiency and anti-oxidation effect.
[0007] In a preferred example, the gas outlet is configured as an annular spherical structure, and the radius of the annular spherical structure is 38 to 42 mm. This design is to avoid damage to the inner wall of the copper tube and ensure that the nitrogen can be evenly distributed on the inner wall of the copper tube.
[0008] In a preferred example, the radius of the annular spherical structure is 40 mm.
[0009] In a preferred example, a mandrel head working surface for increasing a cooling surface is provided on the center rod.
[0010] In a preferred example, the length of the center rod is 190 mm, which is designed to extend the working surface so that the cooling surface of the mandrel head can be increased during the rolling process, thereby improving the life of the mandrel head; In a preferred example, a core rod head replacement platform is provided on the center rod 1, and the thickness of the core rod head replacement platform is 25 to 29 mm. This design is to facilitate the replacement of the core rod head while reducing the problems caused by scratches on the inner wall of the copper tube and delamination of the inner wall.
[0011] In a preferred example, the thickness of the mandrel head replacement platform is 27 mm.
[0012] In a preferred example, the invention further comprises a mandrel head fastening thread for fixing a special mandrel head.
[0013] In a preferred example, a mounting interface is provided at one end of the special mandrel head, the mounting interface is connected to the nitrogen supply system of the copper tube rolling mill, and is provided with a threaded sealing structure to ensure that the nitrogen does not leak.
[0014] Based on a general inventive concept, another object of the present invention is to provide a copper tube rolling mill as mentioned above, including the special mandrel head for nitrogen filling and oxidation prevention of copper tube rolling.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the nitrogen-filled mandrel head of the present invention is specially designed for anti-oxidation during the copper tube rolling process. The intrusion of cooling water is effectively avoided through synchronous nitrogen filling, and the anti-oxidation effect of the copper tube is improved. The nitrogen filling cooling effect is good. The structural design of the nitrogen filling hole enables the mandrel head to be quickly cooled by gas flushing on the inner wall at high temperature, thereby increasing the life of the mandrel head. It is easy to use and has a simple structural design, so that the mandrel head can be quickly replaced during maintenance, saving waiting time and improving production efficiency. The production cost is low, suitable for mass production, and the maintenance cost is also low, which helps to reduce the overall production cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
