[0017] A first frame 9 and a second frame 19 are arranged on the platform of the main frame 1, and a sliding block 20 is arranged at the bottom of the second frame 19. The sliding block 20 is installed on the slide rail 15 of the main frame 1 so that the second frame 19 can slide along the slide rail 15. There are two slide rails 15, which are arranged in parallel on the platform of the main frame 1. When in use, the second frame 19 is moved back and forth according to the different sizes of the workpiece round tubes. After adjusting the position of the second frame 19, the second frame 19 is fixed to the main frame 1 by bolts. The first frame 9 includes a bottom plate, a vertical plate and a horizontal plate.

The mold cavity diameter of the mold at the third station is slightly smaller than the mold cavity diameter of the mold at the second station, and the mold cavity diameter of the mold at the second station is slightly smaller than the mold cavity diameter of the mold at the first station, so that the workpiece round tube can be reduced three times at the first station, the second station and the third station.
[0020] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, arc grooves are arranged on the upper positioning mold 12, the lower positioning mold 13 and the support plate 16. When the workpiece round tube is conveyed to the corresponding workstation by the grasping and conveying device 11, it is supported by the lower positioning mold 13 and the support plate 16. When the tube shrinking operation is performed, the downward pressure cylinder 10 is actuated to drive the upper positioning mold 12 to move downward. Through the cooperation between the upper positioning mold 12 and the lower positioning mold 13, the workpiece round tube is clamped and fixed.
[0021] Three baffle seats 18 are arranged on the second frame 19, and the three baffle seats 18 are located on the inner sides of the three support plates 16, and are arranged one by one corresponding to the three support plates 16.

At the same time, the baffle assembly 17 can also be fine-tuned.
[0022] The structures of the grabbing and conveying devices 11 disposed on the upper ends of the first frame 9 and the second frame 19 are the same. For the convenience of understanding and explanation, one of the grabbing and conveying devices 11 is taken as an example. Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, the grabbing and conveying device 11 includes a base plate 33, on which two transverse guide rails A24 are arranged, a forward push cylinder 23 is arranged at one end of the base plate 33, a sliding plate A26 is arranged on the cylinder rod of the forward push cylinder 23, a slider A25 is arranged at the bottom of the sliding plate A26, and the slider A25 is installed on the guide rail A24 so that the sliding plate A26 can slide along the guide rail A24. Three longitudinal guide rails B32 are arranged on the sliding plate A26, a lifting cylinder 27 is arranged on the sliding plate A26, a sliding plate B28 is arranged on the cylinder rod of the lifting cylinder 27, a slider B29 is arranged at the bottom of the sliding plate B28, the slider B29 is installed on the guide rail B32, so that the sliding plate B28 can slide along the guide rail B32, four clamping cylinders 30 are arranged on the top of the sliding plate B28, a sliding track is arranged on the clamping cylinder 30, two sliding seats are slidably installed on the sliding track, the two sliding seats are respectively connected to the driving ends of the clamping cylinder 30, and are used to drive the sliding seats to slide along the sliding track, and the sliding seats are provided with clamping claws, through which the workpiece round tube can be grasped and placed.
[0023] The four clamping cylinders 30 are evenly distributed along the length direction of the sliding plate B28, and the two clamping claws (two clamping claws form a group) on the sliding seat are symmetrically arranged. The grabbing and conveying device 11 is in the initial state (such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, the first group of jaws is located above the feeding device, the second group of jaws is located above the first station, the third group of jaws is located above the second station, and the fourth group of jaws is located above the third station. The forward push cylinder 23 drives the sliding plate A26 to move forward and backward, thereby driving the four groups of jaws 31 to move, and the workpiece round tube on the feeding device 22 is grabbed to the first station, the second station and the third station to complete three tube shrinking operations, and then falls into the material frame through the unloading ramp plate 14.
[0024] like Figure 11-13 As shown, the feeding device 22 includes a feeding frame 44 and a support frame 47 arranged on the top of the feeding frame 44. There are two support frames 47, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the feeding frame 22. A groove is arranged on the top of the support frame 47. Two feeding cylinders 43 are arranged on the feeding frame 44. The cylinder rods of the feeding cylinders 43 are provided with an inclined feeding plate 42. The feeding cylinders 43 are actuated to push the feeding plate 42 upward, lift up the workpiece round tube and send it into the groove of the support frame 47, waiting to be grabbed by the grabbing and conveying device 11.
[0025] Sensors 41 are provided on the inner side of the support frame 47. The two sensors 41 are connected to the control box 8 through cables. Alignment cylinders 39 are provided on the outer side of the support frame 47. Alignment plates 40 are provided on the cylinder rods of the two alignment cylinders 39. The alignment cylinders 39 drive the alignment plates 40 to move inwards to align the workpiece round tubes. An electromagnetic valve 45 is provided on the feeding frame 44. The feeding cylinder 43 and the alignment cylinder 39 are connected to the air outlet of the electromagnetic valve 45 through air pipes.
[0026] The working process of the scaffolding pole shrinking machine is as follows: Each station is in the initial position (such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown), the loading frame 44 is covered with round workpiece tubes; A. Start the equipment. The two feeding cylinders 43 on the feeding frame 44 are activated at the same time, driving the feeding support plate 42 to move upward, so that the workpiece round tube falls into the groove of the support frame 47 along the slope of the feeding support plate 42. At this time, the sensor 41 senses the signal, and the aligning cylinder 39 is activated, driving the aligning plate 40 to move inward to align the workpiece round tubes. After alignment, the aligning cylinder 39 is reset, and the feeding cylinder 43 is also reset and falls to the initial position, and the loading is completed.
[0027] B. The lifting cylinder 27 is activated, driving the sliding plate B28 to slide downward along the guide rail B32. After falling into place, the clamping claws 31 fall on both sides of the workpiece tube. The clamping cylinder 30 is activated, driving the two clamping claws to move inward to clamp the workpiece tube. The lifting cylinder 27 resets and rises to drive the workpiece tube to rise. After rising into place, the forward cylinder 23 is activated, driving the sliding plate A26 to move forward. After reaching the position, the lifting cylinder 27 falls again and falls into place. The clamping cylinder 30 resets and releases the workpiece tube, placing the workpiece tube in the arc groove of the support plate 16 and the lower positioning mold 13 of the first station. The lifting cylinder 27 resets and rises again, rising into place, and the forward cylinder 23 is also reset, so that the first set of clamping claws returns to the top of the feeding device (such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 as shown), waiting for the next capture and transmission.
[0028] C. The downward pressure cylinder 10 on the first station moves, driving the upper positioning mold 12 to move downward. The arc groove of the upper positioning mold 12 presses the workpiece tube and stops. The shrinking cylinder 38 on the first station moves, pushing the mold seat 34 to slide forward along the guide rail C36, allowing the workpiece tube to be inserted into the mold cavity of the mold 35. Since the thrust of the shrinking cylinder 38 is greater than the bearing capacity of the workpiece tube itself, the workpiece tube is reduced and deformed. After being pushed into place, the shrinking cylinder 38 and the downward pressure cylinder 10 on the first station are reset to their initial positions.
[0029] D. Repeat the action of A, and support the workpiece round tube into the groove of the support frame 47 through the loading support plate 42 to perform the alignment operation. Repeat the action of B, grab the workpiece round tube on the support frame 47 and transfer it to the first station. At the same time, the workpiece round tube that has been shrunk at the first station is also transferred to the second station. Repeat the action of C, so that the downward pressure cylinder 10 and the tube shrinking cylinder 38 on the first station and the second station are actuated at the same time, and the tube shrinking operation is performed on the workpiece round tubes on the first station and the second station.
[0030] E. Repeat the action of A, and support the workpiece round tube into the groove of the support frame 47 through the loading support plate 42 to perform the alignment operation, repeat the action of B, grab the workpiece round tube on the support frame 47 and transfer it to the first station, and also transfer the workpiece round tube that has been shrunk at the first station to the second station, and transfer the workpiece round tube that has been shrunk at the second station to the third station, repeat the action of C, so that the downward pressure cylinder 10 and the tube shrinking cylinder 38 on the first station, the second station and the third station operate at the same time, and perform the tube shrinking operation on the workpiece round tubes on the first station, the second station and the third station.
[0031] F. After successive cycles, the round tube of the workpiece (such as Fig.14 ) is considered to meet the requirements, and the shrunk tube at the third station is transmitted to the unloading ramp plate 14, so that the workpiece round tube falls into the material frame along the unloading ramp plate 14.
