Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present technical solution relates to the technical field of pipe expanding tools, specifically an electric pipe expanding and tightening tool. Background Art
[0002] A pipe expanding tool is used to expand the end of a pipe with a certain diameter to form a flared mouth, a cup-shaped mouth or other required shapes to achieve the purpose of expanding the pipe. The expanded end can be connected to a pipe joint. A tightening tool is used to fasten or compress the pipe connection part, and tighten a sliding sleeve on the expanded end of the pipe to press it against the joint.
[0003] For example, in Chinese Patent CN106180432A, a pipe expanding and tightening tool is disclosed, which includes a guiding pipe. An oil cylinder is arranged inside the pipe body of the guiding pipe, and a piston rod is arranged inside the oil cylinder. The front end of the piston rod is connected with a pipe expander, and the rear end of the pipe expander is located inside the pipe body of the guiding pipe. A fixed chuck and a movable chuck are arranged outside the pipe body of the guiding pipe. The fixed chuck is fixedly arranged at the front end of the guiding pipe. A limiting strip-shaped hole a is axially formed on the pipe body of the guiding pipe, and a movable cylindrical pin a is arranged inside the limiting strip-shaped hole a. The movable chuck is fixedly connected with the piston rod inside the pipe body through the movable cylindrical pin a.
[0004] In the existing installation environment, the space on both sides of the pipe fittings close to the wall is usually insufficient, resulting in easy interference between the pipe expanding tool and the tightening tool, affecting normal operation. When expanding the pipe fittings that have been fixed, it is extremely easy for the pipe expanding tool and the tightening tool to interfere with each other. After the pipe joint is inserted into the expanded end of the pipe fitting, the matching direction of the pipe fitting sliding sleeve and the pipe joint is fixed, making it difficult for the tightening tool to find a suitable operation angle and space, not easy to observe, and inconvenient to use, thus needing improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to improve the problem that the operation and use of the pipe expanding and tightening tool are inconvenient due to environmental constraints after the pipe fittings are fixedly installed, the present technical solution provides an electric pipe expanding and tightening tool.
[0006] The purpose of the present technical solution is achieved as follows:
[0007] An electric pipe expanding and tightening tool, including a housing, the housing having an installation cavity, further including:
[0008] A driving assembly, which is installed in the installation cavity. The driving assembly includes a driving motor, a lead screw sleeve and a piston lead screw. The piston lead screw is slidably arranged in the installation cavity, and the lead screw sleeve is rotatably arranged in the installation cavity and is in threaded cooperation with the piston lead screw;
[0009] A pipe expanding mechanism, which includes a conical piston and a pipe expanding die. The conical piston is fixedly arranged at the end of the piston lead screw, and the pipe expanding die is arranged on the front side of the conical piston;
[0010] A tightening mechanism, which includes a sliding tightening sleeve, a fixed die arranged on the sliding tightening sleeve, and a sliding tightening die. The fixed die is fixedly sleeved on the sliding tightening sleeve. The sliding tightening die is slidably sleeved on the sliding tightening sleeve and is connected to the piston screw rod. The sliding tightening sleeve is rotatably arranged on the housing through a steering adjustment mechanism;
[0011] The driving motor drives the screw sleeve to rotate. When the screw sleeve drives the piston screw rod to slide in the first direction, the piston screw rod pushes the conical piston out, so that the conical piston expands the pipe expanding die to expand the pipe. When the piston screw rod slides in the opposite second direction, the piston screw rod drives the sliding tightening die to move. The sliding tightening die approaches the fixed die, and the sliding tightening die is used to push the sliding sleeve to be sleeved on the pipe fitting outside the pipe joint.
[0012] Through the above technical solution, the driving motor installed on the housing drives the rotatably arranged screw sleeve to rotate. The piston screw rod in threaded cooperation with the screw sleeve performs a sliding movement under the drive of the screw sleeve. Its sliding direction reciprocates between the first direction and the second direction arranged oppositely. When the piston screw rod slides in the first direction (forward), the conical piston fixed at the end of the piston screw rod is pushed forward, and the conical piston expands the pipe expanding die in front of it, realizing the pipe expanding action of the pipe fitting. Insert the pipe joint into the expanded pipe section of the pipe fitting, place the pipe joint on the fixed die, place the sliding sleeve sleeved on the pipe fitting on the sliding tightening die, and then reverse the driving motor. Drive the screw sleeve to drive the piston screw rod to slide in the opposite second direction (backward). The piston screw rod drives the sliding tightening die to move backward through the transmission part, so that it is pulled closer to the fixed die. The sliding tightening die pushes the sliding sleeve to be sleeved on the expanded pipe part of the pipe fitting outside the pipe joint. The pipe expanding and tightening actions are independently driven by the forward and reverse sliding of the piston screw rod respectively. The sliding tightening sleeve changes the position and orientation of the fixed die and the sliding tightening die through the rotatable design of the steering adjustment mechanism, optimizes the operation convenience in a narrow space (especially when the pipe fitting is installed against the wall), effectively avoids the interference between tools, and solves the problems of observation and operation difficulties caused by the fixed cooperation direction between the sliding sleeve and the pipe joint, improving the convenience.
[0013] Preferably, the steering adjustment mechanism includes a limiting sleeve, a locking part, and an elastic part. The outer side of the limiting sleeve is connected to the housing. The inner side of the limiting sleeve is sleeved on the sliding tightening sleeve and abuts against it for limiting, so as to prevent the sliding tightening sleeve from disengaging;
[0014] The sliding tightening sleeve is provided with a plurality of installation grooves, and the elastic parts are installed in the installation grooves. The two ends of the elastic part respectively abut against the locking part and the bottom of the installation groove. The limiting sleeve is correspondingly provided with a fixed gear groove;
[0015] When the tightening sleeve rotates relative to the limiting sleeve, the locking member is fitted into the defined groove, and the elastic force of the elastic member causes the locking member to tend to press against the bottom of the installation groove, so as to position the rotation of the tightening sleeve.
[0016] Through the above technical solution, the outer side of the limiting sleeve provided on the housing is connected to the housing, and the inner side is sleeved on the tightening sleeve and abuts against it for limit, effectively preventing the tightening sleeve from axially disengaging; a steering adjustment mechanism is installed in each of the several installation grooves opened in the tightening sleeve. This mechanism is composed of a locking member and an elastic member. The two ends of the elastic member respectively abut against the locking member and the bottom of the installation groove. When the tightening sleeve rotates, the locking member is engaged with the defined groove, and at the same time, the elastic force of the elastic member continuously acts on the locking member, making it tend to press against the bottom of the installation groove, so as to achieve precise positioning during the rotation of the tightening sleeve, and thus achieve multi-stage adjustment.
[0017] Preferably, one end of the piston screw rod is connected to the conical piston, and the other end is connected to the tightening die.
[0018] Through the above technical solution, the piston screw rod directly and independently drives the two core actions of pipe expansion and tightening along a single reciprocating linear motion, improving the stability and reliability of the tool operation.
[0019] Preferably, one end of the piston screw rod in the sliding direction passes through the tightening sleeve and is connected to the tightening die, and the end is connected to the conical piston.
[0020] Through the above technical solution, by directly connecting the tightening die to the end of the piston screw rod passing through the tightening sleeve, and at the same time fixing the conical piston at the end of the screw rod, both the pipe expansion and tightening actions are arranged on the same side of the piston screw rod, without the need to turn the housing for use, improving convenience.
[0021] Preferably, the fixing die includes a fixing base and a fixing clamp. At least one fixing clamp is provided on the fixing base. The fixing base is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the tightening sleeve, and the fixing base is provided with a first limiting groove;
[0022] The tightening die includes a sliding base and a tightening clamp. At least one tightening clamp is provided on the sliding base. The sliding base is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the tightening sleeve. The tightening clamp is correspondingly provided with a second limiting groove, and the second limiting groove is arranged in alignment with the first limiting groove. The tightening clamp and the tightening clamp are respectively used to abut against the pipe joint and the sliding sleeve.
[0023] Through the above technical solution, the fixed base is fixedly sleeved outside the sliding sleeve, and the first limiting groove on it abuts the pipe joint through the fixed clamp. The sliding base is slidably sleeved outside the sliding sleeve, and the second limiting groove of its sliding clamp is arranged in alignment with the first limiting groove. The second limiting groove carried by the sliding clamp approaches the first limiting groove of the fixed clamp. During this process, the sliding clamp pushes the sliding sleeve sleeved on the pipe fitting towards the pipe joint. The second limiting groove and the first limiting groove cooperate to precisely abut and limit the pipe joint and the sliding sleeve, realizing stable clamping and axial positioning during the assembly of the pipe fitting, optimizing the uniformity of the tightening force distribution, and improving the assembly stability.
[0024] Preferably, at least one installation groove is provided on the side walls of both the fixed base and the sliding base, and the installation grooves are respectively used for clamping and fixing the corresponding fixed clamp and sliding clamp.
[0025] Through the above technical solution, the fixed base and the sliding base are installed by being embedded in the lower part of the installation groove and are fixedly connected by bolts, realizing rapid positioning and installation, ensuring the alignment of the positions of the limiting grooves between the two, and further improving the stability of the axial force.
[0026] Preferably, a plurality of installation grooves are provided, and the plurality of installation grooves are axially distributed on the corresponding fixed base and sliding base. The fixed base and the sliding base are installed corresponding to different installation grooves to adjust the clamping distance between the fixed clamp and the sliding clamp.
[0027] Through the above technical solution, the fixed clamp and the sliding clamp can be installed in the installation grooves at different positions on the corresponding base. By adjusting the axial installation position of the clamp, the initial clamping distance is changed, which is applicable to the assembly of pipe fittings of different specifications, improving the compatibility of the tool with sliding sleeves of different pipe diameters and the assembly efficiency.
[0028] Preferably, buffer pads are installed in both the first limiting groove and the second limiting groove.
[0029] Through the above technical solution, by installing buffer pads in the first limiting groove and the second limiting groove, the buffer pads absorb the impact energy through their own deformation, evenly disperse the local stress during the assembly of the pipe fitting, reduce the assembly vibration and noise; avoid surface scratches caused by the hard contact between the metal clamp and the pipe fitting, and the buffer pads can be replaced separately, reducing the wear of the fixed clamp and the sliding clamp during long-term use and extending the service life.
[0030] Preferably, a synchronous component is provided between the sliding die and the piston screw rod. The synchronous component includes a sliding block arranged at the end of the piston screw rod and a transmission part. The sliding block is slidably arranged in the sliding sleeve. The sliding block is provided with a positioning ring groove, and the sliding base is correspondingly provided with positioning holes along the opposite side walls;
[0031] The sliding tightening sleeve is correspondingly provided with limiting grooves along opposite side walls, the length direction of the limiting grooves is arranged corresponding to the sliding direction of the sliding block, the transmission member passes through the positioning hole and the rear end of the sliding groove and is embedded in the positioning ring groove, so as to coaxially fix the sliding block and the sliding base.
[0032] Through the above technical solution, the sliding block is connected to the end of the piston screw rod, the sliding block is adjusted so that the positioning ring groove formed therein communicates with the limiting groove, the sliding base is moved until the position of the positioning hole on the sliding base communicates with the positioning ring groove. At this time, the positioning ring groove, the positioning hole and the sliding groove are aligned and communicated. Subsequently, the end of the transmission member passes through the positioning hole and the limiting groove and is then embedded in the positioning ring groove. The transmission member is threadedly connected to the positioning hole. At this time, the axial cooperation between the sliding base and the sliding block is realized; the transmission member can move along the sliding groove to ensure that the sliding block can move smoothly, and the transmission member can abut against the opposite side walls of the sliding groove to further limit the radial deflection of the sliding block and the piston screw rod. The groove direction of the limiting groove extends to guide the movement of the transmission member, ensuring that the sliding base pushes the sliding tightening fixture along a straight track, improving stability and ensuring assembly reliability.
[0033] Preferably, a transmission assembly is provided between the driving motor and the piston screw rod. The transmission assembly includes:
[0034] A driving shaft, which is rotatably arranged at the output end of the driving motor;
[0035] A driving gear, which is coaxially sleeved on the driving shaft and fixed;
[0036] [[ID=1:5]]A driven gear, which is rotatably arranged in the installation cavity. The driven gear is coaxially sleeved on the screw rod sleeve and fixed, and the driven gear meshes with the driving gear;
[0037] The piston screw rod is sleeved with a plain bearing. The screw rod sleeve and the sliding tightening sleeve respectively abut against opposite sides of the plain bearing. A bearing member is arranged in the housing, and the bearing member is sleeved on the screw rod sleeve for guiding rotation.
[0038] Through the above technical solution, the driving motor drives the driving shaft to rotate. Based on the coaxial fixation of the driving shaft and the driving gear, the driving shaft drives the driving gear to rotate. The driving gear drives the driven gear meshing therewith to rotate, and the driven gear drives the screw rod sleeve to rotate, so as to realize the sliding of the piston screw rod and ensure the operation reliability.
[0039] The end of the screw rod sleeve abuts against the plain bearing to provide radial support and guidance. And the circumferential side wall of the sliding tightening sleeve abuts against the bearing member, and the bearing member guides the rotation of the screw rod sleeve, reducing the frictional resistance during the rotation of the screw rod sleeve and improving the stability of the power transmission efficiency and the rotation guidance.
[0040] The prominent and beneficial technical effects of this technical solution compared with the prior art are:
[0041] 1. This technical solution uses a sliding sleeve to be rotatably connected to the housing by a steering adjustment mechanism. The steering adjustment mechanism includes a limiting sleeve, a locking member, and an elastic member. The elastic member pushes the locking member to abut against the fixed groove of the limiting sleeve. By rotating the sliding sleeve, adaptive adjustment positioning is achieved, changing the position and orientation of the fixed mold and the sliding mold, optimizing operation convenience in narrow spaces, reducing interference between tools, and solving the observation and operation difficulties caused by the fixed matching direction of the sliding sleeve and the pipe joint, thereby improving convenience.
[0042] 2. This technical solution uses the bidirectional sliding of the piston screw to independently drive the tapered piston to push out the expansion action of the tube expansion die, and pull the sliding die through the transmission part to push the sliding sleeve compression tube joint to tighten, thereby avoiding simultaneous expansion and tightening, reducing mutual interference in power transmission, and improving the stability of tool use.

The bearing member 13 and the plain bearing 12 cooperate to guide the rotation of the lead screw sleeve 32 and reduce the friction force.
[0058] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 Also included are an expanding pipe mechanism 4 and a tightening mechanism 5. The expanding pipe mechanism 4 and the tightening mechanism 5 are respectively installed on the front and rear sides of the housing 1.

Alternatively, a plurality of installation grooves 9 can be opened, and the plurality of installation grooves 9 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction, so that the fixed fixture 522 can be installed corresponding to different installation grooves 9.
[0062] See Figure 3 and Figure 5, the tightening die 53 includes a sliding base 531 and a tightening clamp 532. The sliding base 531 is sleeved on the tightening sleeve 51 and is located on the side close to the housing 1 relative to the fixed base 521. The sliding base 531 is slidably arranged relative to the tightening sleeve 51. The sliding base 531 is coaxially fitted with the piston screw rod 33. A synchronization component 6 is provided between the tightening die 53 and the piston screw rod 33. The synchronization component 6 includes a sliding block 61 and a transmission member 62.

In this embodiment, the case where the sliding base 531 is provided with one installation groove 9 is shown. The lower part of the tightening clamp 532 is embedded in the installation groove 9, and a bolt passes through the tightening clamp 532 and is connected to the sliding base 531. A second limiting groove 72 is formed on the upper part of the tightening clamp 532, and a buffer pad 10 is installed in the second limiting groove 72.
[0064] See Figure 7 , the pipe joint 200 is embedded into the expanded pipe end of the pipe fitting 100. The pipe joint 200 is clamped in the first limiting groove 71 and forms a butt joint limit with the side wall of the buffer pad 10 in the first limiting groove 71. A sliding sleeve 300 is sleeved outside the pipe fitting 100. The pipe fitting 100 is embedded in the second limiting groove 72. The sliding sleeve 300 abuts against the side wall of the second limiting groove 72. The driving motor 31 drives the piston screw rod 33 to move in the second direction through the transmission component 11. The second direction is opposite to the first direction. The piston screw rod 33 drives the sliding block 61 and the sliding base 531 to slide through the transmission member 62, so that the sliding base 531 moves towards the direction close to the fixed base 521. The tightening clamp 532 pushes the sliding sleeve 300 until the sliding sleeve 300 is sleeved outside the embedded end of the pipe joint 200, thereby completing the pressing operation.
[0065] The specific working process of this solution is as follows:
[0066] In this technical solution, a driving motor 31 installed in a housing 1 drives a rotatably arranged lead screw sleeve 32 to rotate. A piston lead screw 33 that is in threaded engagement with the lead screw sleeve 32 performs a sliding movement under the drive of the lead screw sleeve 32. Its sliding direction reciprocates between a first direction and a second direction that are oppositely arranged. When the piston lead screw 33 slides in the first direction (forward), a conical piston 41 fixed to the end of the piston lead screw 33 is pushed forward. The conical piston 41 expands a pipe expanding die 42 on its front side, realizing the pipe expanding action on a pipe fitting 100. Insert a pipe joint 200 into the expanded pipe section of the pipe fitting 100. Place the pipe joint 200 on a fixed die 52, and place a sliding sleeve 300 sleeved on the pipe fitting 100 on a sliding tightening die 53. Then reverse the driving motor 31 to drive the lead screw sleeve 32 to drive the piston lead screw 33 to slide in the opposite second direction (backward). The piston lead screw 33 drives the sliding tightening die 53 to move backward through a transmission member 62, so that it is pulled closer to the fixed die 52. The sliding tightening die 53 pushes the sliding sleeve 300 to be sleeved on the expanded pipe part of the pipe fitting 100 outside the pipe joint 200. The pipe expanding and tightening actions are independently driven by the forward and reverse sliding of the piston lead screw 33 respectively, avoiding mutual interference in power transmission and improving the use stability of the tool.
