[0092] The support plate 93 is vertically arranged on one side of the piercing plate 92 close to the tube threading line 9, and the support plate 93 is arranged parallel to the tube threading line 9. On the basis of the seventh embodiment, in this embodiment, the support plate 93 can be adjusted to be arranged on the surface of the piercing plate 92. When in use, according to different tube threading positions of heat exchange fins 6 of different specifications, the height of the support plate 93 is adjusted so that the support plate 93 can be located between the two tube openings of the U tube 5, thereby facilitating the assembly of heat exchange fins 6 and U tubes 5 of different specifications;

[0093] During the tube threading operation, after the heat exchange fin 6 is placed above the tube threading line 9, the bottom of the heat exchange fin 6 abuts against the support plate 93, and then the U-tube 5 is inserted into the interior of the heat exchange fin 6, so that the end of the U-tube 5 passes through the heat exchange fin 6 and abuts against the pier plate 92, thereby ensuring that the exposed length of the copper tube of the material to be expanded is consistent, avoiding the problem of buckling the U-tube to the lower pier before expanding the tube, simplifying the operation process and improving the operation efficiency.

[0094] Embodiment nine:

[0095] Referring to the fifth embodiment, the buffer assembly line 2 is arranged in the horizontal direction of the lifting platform 1, the pipe threading assembly line 9 is arranged in the vertical direction of the lifting platform 1, the tube expander 3 is arranged between the lifting platform 1 and the pipe threading assembly line 9, and the tube expander 3 is located on the side of the lifting platform 1 away from the buffer assembly line 2, so that the operating space between the lifting platform 1 and the pipe threading assembly line 9 is located on the side close to the buffer assembly line 2, so that the operator can conveniently carry out emergency treatment of the materials on the buffer assembly line 2, and it is convenient for the staff to carry out the pipe expansion operation. The material is transferred between the pipe threading assembly line 9, the tube expander 3, and the lifting platform 1;

[0096] The forklift pallet 7 storing the heat exchange fins 6 is transported to the end of the tube threading line 9 away from the tube expander 3 by a forklift. A lifting device is provided inside the forklift pallet 7. When the heat exchange fins 6 stored on the forklift pallet 7 are taken, as the heat exchange fins 6 decrease, the lifting device inside the forklift pallet 7 gradually rises, so that the heat exchange fins 6 stored inside the forklift pallet 7 always maintain a certain height, thereby avoiding the problem that the employee needs to bend down to take due to the reduction of the heat exchange fins 6, and further improving the convenience of loading;

[0097] When threading the pipe, three employees stand in a group at the position of the pipe threading line 9 in turn. The first employee takes the heat exchange fin 6 from the forklift pallet 7 and puts it on the pipe threading line 9. Then the three employees take a group of U-tubes 5 from the inside of the copper tube storage box 4, and insert the U-tubes 5 into the inside of the heat exchange fin 6, so that the U-tubes 5 and the heat exchange fin 6 form a heat exchanger semi-finished product 8. The heat exchanger semi-finished product 8 is transported by the pipe threading line 9 and moves to the position of the photoelectric sensor 10;

[0098] The photoelectric sensor 10 is replaced with a contact switch. When the tube threading line 9 drives the semi-finished heat exchanger 8 to move to the position of the photoelectric sensor 10, the semi-finished heat exchanger 8 contacts the photoelectric sensor 10, triggering the photoelectric sensor 10 to control the tube threading line 9 to stop. At this time, the staff of the tube expansion process takes the semi-finished heat exchanger 8 and puts it on the tube expander 3 for tube expansion. The staff conducts an appearance inspection on the material that has completed the tube expansion operation and puts the material on the lifting platform 1. When the sensing mechanism on the lifting platform 1 senses that the material has reached a certain height, the material on the lifting platform 1 is transferred to the buffer assembly line 2 for transportation;

[0099] Through the operation connection between the tube threading line 9, the tube expander 3, and the lifting platform 1, the bending action of the employees in the tube threading process to move the materials from the tube threading line 9 is avoided, the labor intensity of the employees is reduced, and the probability of heat exchanger reversal defects caused during the turnover process is reduced;

[0100] Referring to the eighth embodiment, the mounting support 91 is arranged on the lower side of the pipe threading assembly line 9, and the upper surface of the mounting support 91 is flush with the upper surface of the pipe threading assembly line 9, and the inclination angle of the pipe threading assembly line 9 is adjustable. When the inclination angle of the pipe threading assembly line 9 is adjusted, the mounting support 91 is adjusted synchronously with the pipe threading assembly line 9, so that the employees can adjust the pipe threading assembly line 9 to the most comfortable working angle according to their own conditions;

[0101] The pier plate 92 is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the mounting support 91, so that the pier plate 92 is perpendicular to the upper surface of the pipe threading line 9. The pier plate 92 can be adjusted on the surface of the mounting support 91. By adjusting the position of the pier plate 92, the distance between the pier plate 92 and the pipe threading line 9 is changed, so that the position of the pier plate 92 can be adjusted according to the heat exchange fins 6 of different specifications, so that the heat exchange fins 6 of different specifications can be placed on the surface of the pipe threading line 9. The position is located at a position that is convenient for operation, thereby improving the convenience of employees threading pipes;

[0102] The support plate 93 is vertically arranged on one side of the piercing plate 92 close to the tube threading line 9, and the support plate 93 is arranged parallel to the tube threading line 9. On the basis of the seventh embodiment, in this embodiment, the support plate 93 can be adjusted to be arranged on the surface of the piercing plate 92. When in use, according to different tube threading positions of heat exchange fins 6 of different specifications, the height of the support plate 93 is adjusted so that the support plate 93 can be located between the two tube openings of the U tube 5, thereby facilitating the assembly of heat exchange fins 6 and U tubes 5 of different specifications;

[0103] During the tube threading operation, after the heat exchange fin 6 is placed above the tube threading line 9, the bottom of the heat exchange fin 6 abuts against the support plate 93, and then the U-tube 5 is inserted into the interior of the heat exchange fin 6, so that the end of the U-tube 5 passes through the heat exchange fin 6 and abuts against the pier plate 92, thereby ensuring that the exposed length of the copper tube of the material to be expanded is consistent, avoiding the problem of buckling the U-tube to the lower pier before expanding the tube, simplifying the operation process and improving the operation efficiency.

[0104] On the basis of Embodiment 5 and Embodiment 8, in this embodiment, a groove for placing the U-tube 5 is provided on the side of the tube threading line 9 close to the employee, and a baffle is provided on one side of the groove. When the heat exchange fin 6 is placed on the surface of the tube threading line 9, the tube threading line 9 transports the heat exchange fin 6 to abut against the baffle. At this time, the hole on the surface of the heat exchange fin 6 for plugging the U-tube 5 is just aligned with the groove. At this time, the employee places the U-tube 5 in the groove, and then pushes the U-tube 5 to insert it into the interior of the heat exchange fin 6. After the plugging is completed, the baffle is controlled to be square, which saves the employee's time for aligning the hole when plugging the U-tube 5, thereby improving work efficiency.
