Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal pipe processing, and in particular to a device for preparing square pipes from round pipes based on a metal high-temperature plastic deformation control mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Rare metal profiles, especially materials with high strength but limited oxidation resistance such as titanium and zirconium, have been widely used in many high-end fields such as aerospace and nuclear engineering. At present, the forming process and corresponding forming equipment of materials such as steel and aluminum with good plasticity at room temperature are relatively mature. However, for rare metal square tubes with poor plasticity at room temperature, their forming technology and equipment are still in the stage of continuous development.

[0003] The traditional square tube forming process usually feeds the round tube into a series of rollers at room temperature and shapes it into a square tube shape by rolling, such as the rectangular steel tube rolling mill described in Chinese patent CN104384188. This equipment is particularly suitable for metal materials with good plasticity at room temperature. However, for rare metal materials with poor plasticity at room temperature, conventional roll forming technology seems to be unable to cope with it.

[0004] Another common square tube forming method is to first bend the sheet into two U-shaped grooves, then weld twice, and finally shape the square tube by heat treatment. For example, the zirconium alloy element box preparation process mentioned in Chinese patent CN201611145910.4 involves multiple steps such as two bends, two welds, and thermal correction.

[0005] Although bending welding technology can be used to form metal square tubes with poor room temperature plasticity, the square tubes made by this method have two welds, and the precision of the welds is often not high, and usually further processing is required to meet the precision requirements. The square tubes obtained by this processing method not only have low production efficiency, but also shorten the service life of the square tubes. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present invention provides a device for preparing square tubes from round tubes based on the metal high-temperature plastic deformation control mechanism, which solves the problem of low weld accuracy in square tube bending and welding.

[0011] As a further limitation of the present technical solution, the quenching chamber is a conical structure, the conical disk is made of elastic material, and the connecting pipe is slidably arranged at the center of the guide ring.

[0012] As a further limitation of the technical solution, a plurality of quenching holes are provided inside the quenching outer mold, and the quenching cavity is connected with the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold through the plurality of quenching holes. In a natural state, the side wall of the conical disk blocks the opening of the quenching hole.

[0013] As a further limitation of the present technical solution, the quenching correction mechanism also includes a thermal insulation plate, which is arranged on the quenching outer mold and located between the quenching outer mold and the shaping outer mold. The collecting pipe is arranged on the thermal insulation plate, and the inner cavity of the thermal insulation plate is a square column.

[0014] As a further limitation of the present technical solution, the quenching correction mechanism also includes a guide die, which is arranged at one end of the frame close to the correction outer die, and the inner cavity of the guide die is a square column.

[0016] As a further limitation of the technical solution, it also includes an atmosphere protection cover, which is detachably connected to the frame.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are: 1. Through the setting of the thermal deformation mechanism, the preheating rod group preheats the round tube, and one end of the preheated round tube is moved to the inner cavity of the outer molding die. The heating rod group provides a higher temperature to heat the round tube, so that the round tube undergoes high-temperature plastic deformation when passing through the middle of the inner mold, and the front end of the round tube gradually deforms into a square tube. With this setting, the square tube obtained by this technology no longer needs to be bent and welded multiple times, and no further processing of the weld is required to meet the production accuracy requirements of the square tube. The round tube can be directly manufactured into a square tube without a weld at one time, which improves the service life of the square tube and the production efficiency of the square tube. It has high practicality for manufacturing rare metal square tubes with high strength and poor room temperature plasticity, and the service life of the square tube is also improved.

[0018] 2. Through the setting of the quenching correction mechanism, the quenching liquid pipe outputs quenching liquid into the quenching cavity, and the quenching liquid flows into the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold through multiple quenching holes, so that the distribution of the quenching liquid is more uniform, and the quenching liquid quenches the end deformed into a square tube. Then, the quenching liquid is collected through the collecting pipe under the insulation plate and discharged. While the abutment plate positions and supports one end of the other tube, it can further promote the uniform distribution of the quenching liquid, so that the quenching liquid fully flows through various surfaces of the square tube, thereby improving the production quality and service life of the square tube after deformation, and reducing the probability of defects. After quenching and finalizing, one end of the square tube continues to move to the guide mold, and the guide mold guides and supports the other tube, so that the subsequent round tube is not easy to deviate during the movement.

[0019] 3. Through the setting of the correction component, during the slow movement of the square tube, the quenching drum and one end face of the square tube rotate relative to each other, and at the same time provide a certain support and positioning effect for the square tube, so that the square tube is not easy to be greatly deformed in the process of contacting with the quenching liquid, and is not easy to be greatly worn with the abutment plate during the movement, thereby reducing the probability of cracks and improving the processing quality of the square tube; when the amount of quenching liquid input by the quenching liquid pipe increases, the conical disk undergoes further elastic deformation, and the upper end of the conical disk moves downward along the quenching cavity of the conical structure. The conical disk cancels the covering of the quenching hole, so that more quenching liquid enters the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold through the quenching hole, and the quenching drum is not easy to cause damage to one end face of the square tube due to excessive pressure, thereby reducing the probability of defects. At the same time, the flow rate of the quenching liquid in the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold increases, which accelerates the quenching speed of the square tube and improves production efficiency.

[0020] 4. Since conventional plastic deformation molds usually only heat the outer surface of the round tube, but do not heat or keep the inside of the round tube warm, it is easy to cause uneven heating of the round tube and the heating time of the whole round tube is too long. By setting the inner mold insulation rod group, the inner mold insulation rod group heats and keeps the inside of the round tube warm, which can improve the uniformity of heating of the round tube, reduce the probability of defects, and thus improve production accuracy and efficiency.

[0021] 5. Through the setting of the mold fixing assembly, the fastening frame is installed on the preheating outer mold, the shaping outer mold, the quenching outer mold and the correction outer mold, and the first fixed baffle bar, the second fixed baffle bar and the third fixed baffle bar are installed to further fix it, thereby reducing the probability of the device shifting during the feeding process and improving the accuracy and reliability of the device.

[0031] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the guide mold 37 is a smooth and flat plane, the inner cavity of the guide mold 37 and the inner cavity of the correction outer mold 32 correspond to each other and have the same size, ensuring that the square tube can move accurately along the guide mold 37 when moving out, and a guide rod can also be provided between the guide mold 37 and the correction outer mold 32, and the two ends of the guide rod are respectively fixedly connected to the guide mold 37 and the correction outer mold 32, and the guide rod corresponds to one side of the center line of the guide mold 37 to form a plane with the inner walls of the guide mold 37 and the correction outer mold 32, and the pipe fitting can move along the guide rod until it enters the guide mold. Specifically, the guide rod plays a guiding role to ensure that the pipe fitting can slide horizontally.

[0032] The working principle of this embodiment is: When in use, the fastening frame 263 is installed on the preheating outer mold 211, the shaping outer mold 221, the quenching outer mold 31 and the correction outer mold 32, and the first fixed baffle 261, the second fixed baffle 262 and the third fixed baffle 264 are installed to further fix them, so as to reduce the probability of the device being offset during the feeding process and improve the accuracy and reliability of the device. The round tube is installed at one cylindrical end of the inner mold 23, one end of the inner mold 23 is installed on the fixing member 24, and the other end passes through the preheating outer mold 211 and is located inside the shaping outer mold 221. The atmosphere protection cover 4 is installed on the frame 1, and an inert atmosphere is provided inside to prevent the heated parts from Oxidation is prone to occur. The preheating rod group 212 preheats the round tube, and the round tube is pushed by the hydraulic cylinder to move one end of the preheated round tube into the inner cavity of the shaping outer mold 221. The heating rod group 222 provides a higher temperature to heat the round tube, so that the round tube undergoes high-temperature plastic deformation when passing through the middle of the inner mold 23, and the front end of the round tube gradually deforms into a square tube. With such an arrangement, the square tube obtained by this technology no longer needs to be bent and welded multiple times, and no further processing of the weld is required, which can meet the precision requirements of the square tube and can be applied to the forming of square tubes of metal materials with poor room temperature plasticity, thereby increasing the service life of the square tube and improving the production efficiency of the square tube.

[0033] The round tube is further moved forward, so that the end deformed into the square tube is moved to the inside of the quenching outer mold 31, and the quenching liquid pipe 33 is connected to the quenching liquid source to output the quenching liquid into the quenching chamber 311. The quenching liquid enters the conical disk 383 along the conical quenching chamber 311. Since the input quenching liquid usually has a certain pressure, the conical disk 383 will move downward under the action of the pressure and undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation, so that the conical disk 383 drives the quenching drum 381 to descend a certain distance, so that the quenching drum 381 is pressed against the square tube. On the side wall, the quenching liquid enters the interior of the connecting pipe 382, ​​then enters the quenching drum 381, and flows into the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold 31 through the through hole on the quenching drum 381. The quenching liquid quenches and cools the surface of the square tube. Due to the setting of the abutment plate 36, the abutment plate 36 can further promote the uniform distribution of the quenching liquid while positioning and supporting one end of the square tube, so that the quenching liquid fully flows through all surfaces of the square tube, thereby improving the production quality and service life of the square tube and reducing the probability of defects. When one end of the square tube is output from the inner cavity of the quenching outer die 31, the square tube is pulled outward to be slowly moved out. During the slow movement of the square tube, the quenching drum 381 rotates relative to the square tube, and at the same time provides a certain support and positioning effect for the square tube, so that the square tube is not easy to be greatly deformed during the contact with the quenching liquid, and is not easy to be greatly worn with the abutment plate 36 during the movement, thereby reducing the probability of cracks and improving the processing quality of the square tube. When the amount of quenching liquid input by the quenching liquid pipe 33 increases, the conical disk 383 undergoes further elastic deformation, and the upper end of the conical disk 383 moves downward along the quenching cavity 311 of the conical structure. The conical disk 383 cancels the covering of the quenching hole 312, so that more quenching liquid enters the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold 31 through the quenching hole 312. The quenching drum 381 is made of elastic material, and the quenching drum 381 is not easy to damage the surface of the opposite tube due to excessive pressure, thereby reducing the probability of defects. At the same time, the flow rate of the quenching liquid in the inner cavity of the quenching outer mold 31 increases, which speeds up the quenching speed of the opposite tube and improves production efficiency. When the quenching of the square tube is basically completed, the amount of quenching liquid input by the quenching liquid pipe 33 is reduced. At this time, the conical disk 383 gradually returns to its initial state and drives the quenching drum 381 to rise. The quenching liquid is discharged after being collected through the collecting pipe 34 under the insulation plate 35. Since the temperature of the quenching liquid increases after quenching, the collecting pipe 34 is arranged under the insulation plate 35, so that the collected quenching liquid plays a transitional role of slowly cooling the square tube, so that the square tube is not easy to produce defects due to excessive temperature difference when entering the quenching outer mold 31, further improving the production quality and production accuracy, and improving the production efficiency of the square tube.

[0034] The end deformed into a square tube is further moved into the inner cavity of the correction outer mold 32, and the inner cavity of the correction outer mold 32 fits the outer surface of the square tube, so that the square tube after quenching is further cooled and shaped, reducing the probability of dents and defects. One end of the shaped square tube continues to move into the guide mold 37, and the guide mold 37 guides and supports the square tube, so that the subsequent round tube is not easy to deviate during the movement, which is conducive to meeting the requirements of production accuracy, improving the service life of the square tube, and improving the production efficiency of the square tube.

[0035] The above disclosure is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
