Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of welded pipe processing, and in particular to a processing device for stainless steel welded pipes. Background Art

[0002] Stainless steel welded pipe, referred to as welded pipe, is usually made of steel or steel strip that is curled and formed by a unit and a mold and then welded. In the subsequent processing of the welded pipe, the formed welded pipe needs to be cut according to the size required by the customer.

[0003] One of the methods for cutting welded pipes in the prior art is to use a laser cutting machine. During cutting, it is necessary to collect the cutting debris inside the pipe. For example, the invention patent with publication number CN118989571A discloses a pipe cutting device for mechanical processing. When the cutting debris is sucked out, the device uses an airbag to block the device, thereby enhancing the suction force and improving the debris collection effect. However, the device still has defects: the side of the sealing airbag facing the cutting position is flat, and the suction pipe port is installed in the middle position of the airbag plane. The cutting debris has the characteristic of sputtering. When the debris sputters to the side position deviating from the suction pipe port, a suction dead angle is likely to occur, resulting in the sputtered cutting debris remaining in the pipe. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the disadvantage in the prior art that the debris splashed into the welded pipe during laser cutting cannot be completely collected, the present invention provides a processing device for a stainless steel welded pipe.

[0005] The technical implementation scheme of the present invention is: a processing device for stainless steel welded pipes, comprising a laser cutting machine, a pipe conveying rack and a mounting seat; the pipe conveying rack for conveying welded pipes is located between the laser cutting machine for cutting welded pipes and the mounting seat; and also comprises a telescopic driving member; a plurality of telescopic driving members are installed on the mounting seat, and the telescopic ends of all telescopic driving members are commonly connected to a fixed disc, and the telescopic driving member is used to drive the fixed disc to move, and a main airbag is provided on the side of the fixed disc away from the telescopic driving member, and the main airbag is annular and has a conical surface on the side away from the fixed disc, and a dust suction pipe is provided through the middle of the fixed disc, and the dust suction pipe passes through the main airbag.

[0006] Furthermore, a plurality of telescopic driving members 2 are provided on the fixed disc, and the telescopic ends of all the telescopic driving members 2 pass through the fixed disc and are commonly connected to a guide plate. The guide plate is in the shape of a circular trumpet and has a through circular hole in the middle with the same diameter as the pipe mouth of the dust suction pipe. The guide plate is located on the conical surface side of the main airbag.

[0007] Furthermore, a circular trumpet-shaped space is formed between the guide plate and the main airbag, and the outer diameter of the guide plate is smaller than the outer diameter of the main airbag.

[0008] Furthermore, the guide plate is made of high temperature resistant material.

[0009] Furthermore, the pipe conveying rack is composed of two electric conveying rollers distributed up and down, and the welded pipe is conveyed by the two electric conveying rollers.

[0010] Furthermore, two auxiliary airbags are symmetrically arranged on the conical surface of the main airbag, and the two auxiliary airbags are located on the left and right sides of the space between the main airbag and the guide plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper surfaces of the two auxiliary airbags are both inclined and distributed in an inverted figure eight shape.

[0012] Furthermore, the main airbag has an outer annular surface, and the diameter of the outer annular surface at a side away from the fixed disc is larger than the diameter of the outer annular surface at a side close to the fixed disc.

[0013] Furthermore, when the auxiliary airbag is squeezed by the guide plate, the gas in the auxiliary airbag will be squeezed into the main airbag, and the outer annular surface will expand to be close to the inner wall of the welded pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, the diameter of the fixed disc is equal to the diameter of the outer annular surface of the main airbag close to the fixed disc.

[0015] The present invention has the following advantages: the present invention guides the splashed cutting debris through the conical surface of the main airbag, and even if the cutting debris splashes to the bottom of the main airbag sealing surface, it can be sucked away;

[0016] The present invention forms a trumpet-shaped small space between the guide plate and the main airbag, and the outer diameter of the guide plate is smaller than the outer diameter of the main airbag. When the conical surface of the main airbag moves the welding debris gathered on the inner wall of the weld pipe, the suction effect of the dust suction pipe on the moved and gathered welding debris can be enhanced through the small space formed between the guide plate and the main airbag.

[0017] The present invention designs the outer annular surface of the main airbag to be inclined, that is, the diameter of the outer annular surface on the side away from the fixed disk is larger than the diameter of the outer annular surface on the side close to the fixed disk, so the outer annular surface of the main airbag only contacts the inner wall of the weld pipe on one side. This does not affect the realization of cleaning welding debris by moving, and can also reduce the friction of the main airbag when moving inside the weld pipe. During laser cutting, the outer annular surface of the main airbag is completely pressed against the inner wall of the weld pipe, and the outer annular surface is subjected to the gas pressure inside the main airbag at this time, so as to achieve internal support and fixation of the inner wall of the weld pipe, thereby further ensuring the laser cutting accuracy of the weld pipe.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] Reference herein to an embodiment means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of such a phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] A processing device for stainless steel welded pipes, such as Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, it includes a laser cutting machine 1, a pipe conveying rack 2 and a mounting seat 3; the laser cutting machine 1, the pipe conveying rack 2 and the mounting seat 3 are installed on a workbench, and the pipe conveying rack 2 can be set in multiple groups according to the specific length of the welded pipe; the pipe conveying rack 2 is located between the laser cutting machine 1 and the mounting seat 3;

[0027] It also includes a telescopic driving member 4; two telescopic driving members 4 are installed on the mounting seat 3, and the telescopic driving member 4 is an electric multi-stage telescopic rod. The telescopic ends of all telescopic driving members 4 are commonly connected to a fixed disc 5, and a main air bag 7 is provided on the side of the fixed disc 5 away from the telescopic driving member 4. The main air bag 7 is annular and the side of the main air bag 7 away from the fixed disc 5 is a conical surface 71, and a dust suction pipe 6 is provided through the middle of the fixed disc 5. The dust suction pipe 6 is connected to the external vacuum cleaner through a telescopic pipe, and the external vacuum cleaner adopts a model that can withstand high-temperature slag. The dust suction pipe 6 passes through the main air bag 7, and the air inlet nozzle of the main air bag 7 passes through the fixed disc 5.

[0028] Two telescopic driving members 2 8 are provided on the fixed disc 5, and the telescopic driving members 2 8 are electric push rods. The telescopic ends of all the telescopic driving members 2 8 pass through the fixed disc 5 and are commonly connected to a guide plate 9. The guide plate 9 is a circular trumpet shape and has a through circular hole in the middle with the same diameter as the pipe mouth of the dust suction pipe 6. The guide plate 9 is located on one side of the conical surface 71 of the main airbag 7.

[0029] A circular trumpet-shaped space is formed between the guide plate 9 and the main airbag 7 , and the outer diameter of the guide plate 9 is smaller than the outer diameter of the main airbag 7 , ensuring that the weld debris that is moved and gathered enters the circular trumpet-shaped space.

[0030] The guide plate 9 is made of high temperature resistant material to reduce damage caused by high temperature slag during laser cutting.

[0031] The pipe conveying rack 2 is composed of two electric conveying rollers distributed up and down, and the welded pipe is conveyed by the two electric conveying rollers.

[0032] The structure of the laser cutting machine 1 is common knowledge and will not be described in detail here.

[0033] In this embodiment, the welded pipe is placed on the pipe conveying rack 2, cut by the laser cutting machine 1, and conveyed by the pipe conveying rack 2, and cut into multiple sections of pipes of specified sizes in cooperation with the laser cutting machine 1.

[0034] After the welding pipe is placed, the fixed disc 5 is first pushed into the welding pipe by the telescopic driving member 4, so that the main airbag 7 moves to the side of the welding pipe to be cut. Since the dust suction pipe 6 is connected to the external vacuum cleaner through the telescopic pipe, the telescopic pipe extends when the dust suction pipe 6 moves with the fixed disc 5. When the laser cutting machine 1 cuts the welding pipe, the external vacuum cleaner generates a suction force, and the cutting debris is sucked into the external vacuum cleaner through the dust suction pipe 6. At this time, since the outer diameter of the main airbag 7 is equal to the inner diameter of the welding pipe, the main airbag 7 blocks the inside of the welding pipe, thereby enhancing the suction force at the dust suction pipe 6.

[0035] Furthermore, since the dust suction tube 6 is located in the middle of the main air bag 7, considering that if the sealing surface of the main air bag 7 is a plane, it is easy for the cutting debris to splash to the bottom of the sealing surface of the main air bag 7, and this position deviates from the suction path of the dust suction tube 6, which will form a suction dead angle, the side of the main air bag 7 away from the fixed disk 5 is designed to be a conical surface 71, that is, the sealing surface of the main air bag 7 is a conical surface 71, and the nozzle of the dust suction tube 6 is located at the end with a smaller diameter of the conical surface 71. In this way, the splashed cutting debris can be guided by the conical surface 71 of the main air bag 7, and even if the cutting debris splashes to the bottom of the sealing surface of the main air bag 7, it can be sucked up.

[0036] Furthermore, considering that welding debris will remain on the inner wall of the pipe during the forming process, if it is not removed, it will affect the subsequent use of the pipe or require additional cleaning steps. Therefore, before laser cutting, the conical surface 71 of the main air bag 7 is moved inside the pipe to move the welding debris, and at the same time, the suction of the external vacuum cleaner is used to absorb and collect the remaining welding debris. At this time, a guide plate 9 is added so that the guide plate 9 is located on one side of the conical surface 71 of the main air bag 7. At this time, a trumpet-shaped small space is formed between the guide plate 9 and the main air bag 7, and the outer diameter of the guide plate 9 is smaller than the outer diameter of the main air bag 7. When the conical surface 71 of the main air bag 7 moves the welding debris gathered on the inner wall of the welded pipe, the suction effect of the vacuum pipe 6 on the moved and gathered welding debris can be enhanced through the small space formed between the guide plate 9 and the main air bag 7.

[0037] At the same time, the circular trumpet-shaped guide plate 9 can also guide the cutting debris during laser cutting, and the guide plate 9 made of high-temperature resistant material can also reduce the impact damage of the high-temperature slag splashed during laser cutting on the main airbag 7, thereby playing a protective role.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] On the basis of Example 1, Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, two auxiliary airbags 72 are symmetrically arranged on the conical surface 71 of the main airbag 7 , and the two auxiliary airbags 72 are located on the left and right sides of the space between the main airbag 7 and the guide plate 9 .

[0040] The upper surfaces of the two auxiliary air bags 72 are both inclined and arranged in an inverted figure eight shape.

[0041] In this embodiment, by providing two auxiliary air bags 72, the circular trumpet-shaped space between the guide plate 9 and the main air bag 7 is further reduced, and the welding debris in the lower half of the inner wall of the welding pipe can be further moved and gathered together to improve the suction efficiency. In addition, by designing the upper surfaces of the two auxiliary air bags 72 as inclined surfaces distributed in an inverted eight shape, the welding debris in the upper half of the inner wall of the welding pipe that is moved is received and guided, so that it can quickly reach the pipe mouth position of the dust suction pipe 6, so that the welding debris in the upper and lower parts can be quickly processed.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] On the basis of Example 2, Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the main airbag 7 has an outer annular surface 73 , and the diameter of the outer annular surface 73 at a side away from the fixed disc 5 is larger than the diameter of the outer annular surface 73 at a side close to the fixed disc 5 .

[0044] When the auxiliary airbag 72 is squeezed by the guide plate 9 , the gas in the auxiliary airbag 72 will be squeezed into the main airbag 7 , and the outer annular surface 73 will expand to be close to the inner wall of the welded pipe.

[0045] The diameter of the fixed disc 5 is equal to the diameter of the outer annular surface 73 of the main airbag 7 close to the fixed disc 5 . The fixed disc 5 can abut against the main airbag 7 and assist the guide plate 9 in squeezing the auxiliary airbag 72 .

[0046] In this embodiment, considering that the laser cutting machine 1 needs to perform multiple cuts on the same welded pipe, after the welded pipe is cut once, the telescopic driving member 4 is controlled to be telescopic so that the main air bag 7 moves to one side of the next cutting position in the welded pipe. If the outer wall surface of the main air bag 7 is close to the inner wall of the welded pipe, when the main air bag 7 moves in the welded pipe, the friction between the main air bag 7 and the welded pipe may cause the position of the welded pipe to move, resulting in the deviation of the next cutting position. Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, the outer annular surface 73 of the main air bag 7 is designed to be inclined, that is, the diameter of the outer annular surface 73 away from the fixed disc 5 is larger than the diameter of the outer annular surface 73 close to the fixed disc 5. Therefore, the outer annular surface 73 of the main air bag 7 only contacts the inner wall of the welded pipe on one side, which does not affect the realization of the movement to clean the welding debris and can also reduce the friction of the main air bag 7 when it moves inside the welded pipe.

[0047] Furthermore, when the main airbag 7 is moved to clean the welding debris, a suction space is formed between the main airbag 7 and the guide plate 9. When the laser cutting machine 1 is used to laser cut the weld pipe, the suction space is not needed. Therefore, after the main airbag 7 has cleaned the welding debris and moved to the side of the weld pipe to be cut, the telescopic driving member 2 8 is controlled to drive the guide plate 9 to move closer to the main airbag 7, so that the guide plate 9 is close to the conical surface 71 of the main airbag 7, thereby eliminating the space between the main airbag 7 and the guide plate 9, and reducing the dispersion of the suction force at the dust suction pipe 6. When the guide plate 9 moves to abut the conical surface 71, the auxiliary airbag 72 at the conical surface 71 will be squeezed by the guide plate 9, and the fixed disc 5 will cooperate to abut the side of the main airbag 7 away from the conical surface 71. At this time, the gas in the auxiliary airbag 72 will be squeezed into the main airbag 7, and the outer annular surface 73 of the main airbag 7 will further expand to fit closely to the inner wall of the weld pipe. The outer annular surface 73 of the main airbag 7 is completely abutted against the inner wall of the weld pipe, and the outer annular surface 73 is now subjected to the gas pressure inside the main airbag 7, so as to achieve internal support and fixation of the inner wall of the weld pipe, thereby further ensuring the accuracy of laser cutting of the weld pipe.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
