Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of heat exchanger tube expansion, and in particular relates to a heat exchanger hydraulic tube expansion device and a tube expansion control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In order to ensure good heat transfer between the fins and the tubes of the tube-fin heat exchanger, the tubes need to be expanded. Currently, mechanical expansion is more commonly used, but mechanical expansion has disadvantages.
[0003] 1. The mechanical expansion tube needs to be inserted into the copper tube for expansion, which causes the wall thickness of the copper tube inlet to become thinner. This part needs to be welded with the copper tube of the water inlet and outlet pipes later. Flame welding will cause further damage to the thin-walled copper tube here. This part is more likely to be damaged in later use, affecting product quality and service life;
[0004] 2. If the wall thickness of copper tubes with the same outer diameter is different, resulting in different inner diameters of the copper tubes, the expansion head of the mechanical expansion tube also needs to be adjusted in specifications, so it is necessary to configure expansion heads of various specifications;
[0005] 3. The expansion head of the mechanical expansion tube is subject to wear and tear. The diameter of the expansion head needs to be measured regularly to ensure that the copper tube and the fin can be tightened. Frequent maintenance and replacement are required.
[0006] In addition, another way to expand the tube is water expansion. After the inlet and outlet pipes are welded, high-pressure water is passed through the entire heat exchanger to expand the copper tube. This method will damage the bend on the tail side, because the copper tube will be stretched after bending, the bend is the weakest and there is no fin restraint on the outside, the pressure resistance is poor, and the bend will be deformed if the water pressure is too high. This place is easy to be damaged in later use. If the water pressure is low, the copper tube and the fin cannot be tightly expanded. Summary of the invention

The expansion tube assembly 6 passes through the protective sleeve 41. The protective sleeve 41 is provided to avoid expansion of the copper tube 9 at the inlet of the heat exchanger. That is, the protective sleeve 41 is provided here to avoid the expansion of the expansion tube 62 here due to water filling and expansion to avoid expansion of the copper tube 9 at the inlet of the heat exchanger.
[0044] In some embodiments, a guide 65 is provided at the lower end of the expansion tube assembly 6 to facilitate the expansion tube assembly 6 to enter the heat exchanger and pass through and be guided. The guide 65 is a conical guide head, which can be a rubber head.
[0045] The working principle or operation mode of the present invention is as follows: the movable main frame 2 and the movable positioning frame 4 are in the initial position, the heat exchanger 8 is fixed on the bottom platform 11 below, and the fixing tool can adopt the fixing tool of the mechanical expansion tube in the prior art, and the fixing tool includes a bottom fixing seat 10, and the bottom fixing seat 10 is provided with a limiting slot hole that matches the bottom of the heat exchanger 8. The bottom fixing seat 10 can be detachably connected to the bottom platform 11 by bolts, so that different bottom fixing seats 10 can be replaced to match different heat exchangers 8. In order to increase stability, a limiting clip 20 is provided on each side of the heat exchanger 8, wherein the two ends of the limiting clip 20 on one side are fixed on the fixing columns 30 on both sides, and one end of the limiting clip 20 on the other side is hingedly connected to the fixing column 30 on one side, and the other side is connected to the fixing column 30 on the other side through the hand wheel assembly 40; The system is set according to the length of the copper tube 9 of the heat exchanger 8. The movable main frame 2 is driven down by the main driving mechanism. The lower end of the expansion tube assembly 6 enters from the inlet of the copper tube 9 under the guidance of the guide 65. After reaching the set position (the guide 65 is at the lower elbow of the heat exchanger), the movable main frame 2 stops moving; then the movable positioning frame 4 is driven down by the first driving mechanism, the protective sleeve 41 completely penetrates into the upper end of the copper tube, the movable positioning frame 4 stops moving, and the second driving mechanism drives the rubber plug sleeve 75 to rotate to pinch and seal the expansion tube 62 here to avoid the upper side expansion tube assembly 6 here from being filled with water, that is, only the side expansion tube assembly 6 here needs to be filled with water, and the expansion tube length can be adjusted by the cooperation of the movable positioning frame 4, the pinching tube sealing assembly 7 and the protective sleeve 41, and the corresponding adjustment and setting are performed according to the actual expansion tube length of the copper tube 9;
[0046] It should be noted that the lowering height setting of the movable main frame 2 and the movable positioning frame 4 can be achieved by setting a plurality of position switches, or by a motor and a program with a control function, and inputting corresponding data such as the length of the heat exchanger 8 and the copper tube 9, and the system controls the movable main frame 2 and the movable positioning frame 4 to automatically move to the corresponding position;
[0047] Start the high-pressure water pump to pressurize and expand the tube. After the expansion is completed, the pressure is released and the water is partially discharged from the expansion assembly 6. The second driving mechanism drives the rubber plug sleeve 75 to reverse, the rubber plug sleeve 75 is loosened, and the movable main frame 2 and the movable positioning frame 4 rise to the initial position to carry out the expansion operation of the next heat exchanger.
[0048] It should be noted that during the tube expansion process, pressure and water volume control are required.
[0049] In the water supply pipeline, water volume and pressure sensors need to be installed. The water supply volume is calculated as follows:
[0050] The outer diameter D1 and wall thickness δ1 of the copper tube 9 before expansion and the required outer diameter D2 of the copper tube 9 after expansion are three parameters. The density change of the copper tube 9 is ignored. The calculation formula for calculating the wall thickness δ2 of the copper tube 9 after expansion is as follows:
[0051]
[0052] Because they are all numerical calculations, the letter δ2 can be directly used to represent the wall thickness of the copper tube after expansion, and the calculation formula will no longer be converted.
[0053] The water requirement Q for expansion of a single copper tube 9 with an expansion length of L is calculated as follows:
[0054]
[0055] Where D2, δ2, L are known values, and C is the volume occupied by the expansion tube 62 and the water supply conduit per unit length;
[0056] Theoretically, the above amount of water can be used to expand the tube. Considering that the water supply pipeline may be damaged and leaking, another judgment parameter pressure is introduced. The judgment logic is that when the water supply reaches the required water volume, the water supply is shut off, and the pressure of the water supply pipeline is within the pressure range and remains stable. The pressure holding time should not be too long to avoid excessive deformation of the copper tube due to unevenness and low tube expansion efficiency.
[0057] The above disclosures are only several specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
