[0002] The automobile exhaust bellows, also known as automobile exhaust pipe hose, is installed in the exhaust pipe between the engine exhaust branch pipe and the muffler, so that the entire exhaust system is flexibly connected, thereby playing the role of vibration and noise reduction, facilitating installation and prolonging the service life of the exhaust muffling system. It is mainly used for light vehicles, micro vehicles and passenger cars, and its structure is a double-layer bellows covered with a steel wire mesh sleeve, and the two ends are straight edge segments with snap ring structures. In order to achieve better muffling effect, an expansion joint or mesh sleeve can be arranged inside the bellows.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0030] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0031] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this invention provides a molding die for forming an automotive exhaust pipe, comprising a processing table 1, a support frame 10 fixedly connected to the processing table 1, a hydraulic rod 11 fixedly connected to the upper end of the support frame 10, a first fixing plate 12 fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 11, an upper mold 2 fixedly connected to the first fixing plate 12, a lower mold 3 fitted onto the upper surface of the processing table 1 directly opposite the upper mold 2, a buffer assembly 5 provided on the lower mold 3 to guide and buffer the upper mold 2, and sealing seats 4 elastically connected to both sides of the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3.

[0032] The outer end faces of the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3 are connected side by side by multiple guide cylinders 6. The outer end faces of the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3 are fixedly provided with a fixing frame 13. The fixing frame 13 is fixedly connected with an electric push rod 14. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 14 is fixedly connected with a second fixing plate 15. The second fixing plate 15 is connected with multiple pressure boosting mechanisms 7. Each pressure boosting mechanism 7 is directly opposite a guide cylinder 6. The second fixing plate 15 is connected with a driving mechanism 8. The driving mechanism 8 can drive all the pressure boosting mechanisms 7 to rotate simultaneously.

[0033] Each guide cylinder 6 has several guide holes 16 near its bottom. A retractable electric telescopic sleeve 17 is fixedly installed on the outside of the guide cylinder 6, and the electric telescopic sleeve 17 is in contact with the outer wall of the guide cylinder 6.

[0034] In this embodiment, the exhaust pipe blank is placed in the lower mold 3, and the hydraulic rod 11 is activated. The hydraulic rod 11 drives the upper mold 2 to move down, and the upper mold 2 moves closer to the lower mold 3. At this time, the buffer component 5 guides and buffers the upper mold 2. Then, all the sealing seats 4 on the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3 are pre-fitted. As the upper mold 2 moves down, the exhaust pipe blank between the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3 is squeezed. Since all the sealing seats 4 pre-close the connection between the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3, the excess part of the exhaust pipe blank is concentrated in the middle of the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3, and the excess part of the exhaust pipe blank is concentrated in all the guide cylinders 6, which improves the forming accuracy of the exhaust pipe forming surface.

[0035] When the exhaust pipe excess blank fills the guide cylinder 6, the air between the exhaust pipe blank and the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 is also discharged from the guide hole 16 on the guide cylinder 6, thereby avoiding the influence of the excess air between the exhaust pipe blank and the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 on the exhaust pipe forming;

[0036] After the electric telescopic sleeve 17 is started to extend, the electric telescopic sleeve 17 seals all the guide holes 16 on the guide cylinder 6, the electric telescopic sleeve 17 can cut off the excess blank part outside the guide hole 16, then the electric push rod 14 is started, the electric push rod 14 drives all the booster mechanisms 7 to extrude the blank part in the guide cylinder 6, at this time, since the electric telescopic sleeve 17 seals all the guide holes 16, the blank part in the guide cylinder 6 can be further extruded into the upper die 2 and the lower die 3, the adhesion of the exhaust pipe blank to the side wall of the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 is increased, and the forming precision of the outer wall of the exhaust pipe is further improved.

[0037] At this time, the driving mechanism 8 is started, the driving mechanism 8 can drive all the booster mechanisms 7 to rotate at the same time, under the action of the torsional force of the booster mechanism 7, the excess exhaust pipe blank in the guide cylinder 6 is subjected to a transverse shearing force, at this time, since the exhaust pipe blank is embedded in each guide hole 16 on the guide cylinder 6, the blank part is cut off at the position close to the guide hole 16, on the one hand, the transverse shearing force caused by the torsion does not affect the surface forming of the exhaust pipe blank in the upper die 2 and the lower die 3, on the other hand, it is also convenient for subsequent taking out of the exhaust pipe from the upper die 2 and the lower die 3, preventing the excess blank part from being too tightly clamped with the inside of the guide cylinder 6, so that the exhaust pipe blank in the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 is difficult to take out.

[0040] In this embodiment, the electric push rod 14 is started to extend, the electric push rod 14 drives all the No. 2 fixed plates 15 to move downward, all the fixed rods 71 drive all the lower pressing heads 72 connected therewith to press downward into the corresponding guide cylinder 6, thereby making the excess blank in all the guide cylinders 6 extrude into the upper die 2 and the lower die 3, and increasing the adhesion of the exhaust pipe blank to the inner wall of the upper die 2 and the lower die 3.

[0041] As shown in Figure 6As shown, the automobile exhaust pipe forming processing die provided by the present application, the contact part of the elastic member and the lower pressing head 72 is provided with a pressure sensor.

[0042] In this embodiment, all the fixed rods 71 drive all the lower pressing heads 72 to press down in the corresponding material guiding barrels 6, and when the pressure values of all the pressure sensors reach the set threshold value, it indicates that the excess blank in the material guiding barrel 6 has been compacted into the upper die 2 and the lower die 3.

[0043] As shown, the automobile exhaust pipe forming processing die provided by the present application, the contact part of the elastic member and the lower pressing head 72 is provided with a pressure sensor. Figure 6 As shown, the automobile exhaust pipe forming processing die provided by the present application, the contact part of the elastic member and the lower pressing head 72 is provided with a pressure sensor.

[0044] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 8 is started, and the driving mechanism 8 drives all the fixed rods 71 to rotate, at this time, all the fixed rods 71 drive all the lower pressing heads 72 to rotate, and the lower pressing head 72 pushes the blank in contact with it to press down into the material guiding barrel 6 through the pressing block 73 at the bottom of the lower pressing head 72, at the same time, all the pressing blocks 73 exert a torsional force on the blank in the material guiding barrel 6, and since the blank near the bottom of the material guiding barrel 6 is fitted into the surrounding guide holes 16, the torsional force is converted into a shearing force when it reaches the bottom of the material guiding barrel 6, so that the blank is cut off at the position close to the guide hole 16.

[0045] As shown, the automobile exhaust pipe forming processing die provided by the present application, the contact part of the elastic member and the lower pressing head 72 is provided with a pressure sensor. Figure 4 As shown, the automobile exhaust pipe forming processing die provided by the present application, the driving mechanism 8 includes a telescopic rod 81, a rack 82 and a gear 83.

[0047] In this embodiment, the telescopic rod 81 is started to extend, and through the cooperation of the rack 82 and the gear 83, the telescopic rod 81 drives all the fixed rods 71 to rotate.

[0048] As shown, the automobile exhaust pipe forming processing die provided by the present application, the contact part of the elastic member and the lower pressing head 72 is provided with a pressure sensor.

[0050] As Figure 2 The side of the sealing seat 4 towards the center of the upper die 2 or the lower die 3 is a slope.

[0051] In this embodiment, when the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 are close, all the sealing seats 4 on the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 are pre-adhered at this time. With the descending of the upper die 2, the exhaust pipe blank between the upper die 2 and the lower die 3 is extruded. All the sealing seats 4 pre-close the connection between the upper die 2 and the lower die 3. The slope of the sealing seat 4 applies a slant extrusion force to the excess blank. Thus, the excess blank of the exhaust pipe is concentrated to the middle part of the upper die 2 and the lower die 3.
