[0005] From the above patents, we can see that the production of aluminum flat tubes will use extrusion welding devices and scraping devices. Among them, the extrusion welding device includes a workbench and a weld straightening component, a guide component, a high-frequency coil and an extrusion wheel component arranged on it from front to back. The extrusion wheel component includes two welding units arranged side by side on the left and right. The welding unit includes a mounting seat, a bearing seat on the mounting seat, an extrusion wheel shaft on the bearing seat and an extrusion wheel on the extrusion wheel shaft. The two mounting seats are arranged side by side on the left and right and are arranged on the workbench. The two extrusion wheels are respectively located on the left and right sides of the aluminum flat tube. A coolant channel is provided on the extrusion wheel shaft, and the coolant channel is connected to the coolant circulation structure through a pipeline.

[0006] For example, patent application number CN201720224484.7 discloses a pipe extrusion welding device comprising a base, a guide wheel assembly, and a welding wheel assembly, the guide wheel assembly and the welding wheel assembly being sequentially mounted on the base. There are two or more guide wheel assemblies, each comprising a bearing seat I, a guide wheel, and a guide wheel shaft. Bearing seat I is mounted on the base, and the guide wheel is rotatably connected to the top of bearing seat I via the guide wheel shaft. The welding wheel assembly comprises a bearing seat II, a welding wheel, and a welding wheel shaft, the welding wheel being rotatably connected to the bottom of bearing seat II via the welding wheel shaft, and bearing seat II is supported on the base via column I.

[0007] For example, patent application number CN201520834005.4 discloses a high-frequency welding extrusion device for heat-dissipating aluminum tubes. The device comprises two extrusion wheels and two rotating shafts. The extrusion wheels are tightly fitted to the lower portion of the rotating shafts. The upper portion of each rotating shaft is provided with a bearing seat. The bearing seat is provided with a lubricant channel and an interface for lubricating the bearings. The bearing seat is provided with a bearing sleeved on the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is provided with a cooling water channel that longitudinally runs through both ends of the rotating shaft. The upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft are provided with a locking nut and a cooling water pipe.

[0008] The prior art heats an aluminum flat tube using a high-frequency coil, melting the upper ends of the two arms of the U-shaped tube. An extrusion wheel then presses the upper ends of the two arms together to weld and simultaneously form the tube. The heated aluminum flat tube reaches a high temperature, which transfers heat to the extrusion wheel, causing deformation and affecting welding and forming accuracy. This also shortens the wheel's service life. The prior art cools the extrusion wheel shaft and wheels by injecting coolant into the wheel shaft. The applicant has found that this cooling effect is ineffective. Furthermore, the high temperature of the aluminum flat tube itself affects the accuracy of the subsequent scraping process and the service life of the scraper. Summary of the Invention
