[0039] As a further explanation of the scheme of this embodiment, the workpiece preheating unit 3 includes a fixed preheating frame 22 and a movable preheating frame 25. Two support frames 21 are fixedly provided on one side of the top of the height adjustment frame 20, and three fixed preheating frames 22 and three mounting frames 23 are fixedly provided on the top of the two support frames 21 respectively.

[0040] Specifically, the arc grooves arranged on the opposite sides of the three fixed preheating racks 22 and the three movable preheating racks 25 match each other, but the diameter of the arc grooves gradually decreases from bottom to top to adapt to the residual heat treatment of steel pipes of different diameters before processing. The number of fixed preheating racks 22 and workpiece preheating units 3 can be any, and can be adaptively adjusted according to processing requirements; a through groove is provided on the top of the processing machine tool 1, which is used to allow the fixed preheating rack 22, the mounting rack 23 and the movable preheating rack 25 to be controlled up and down on the top of the processing machine tool 1.

[0041] It should be noted that when preheating the steel pipe before bending, the corresponding fixed preheating frame 22 and movable preheating frame 25 are selected according to the size specifications of the steel pipe to be processed, and the two lifting servo linear slides 19 are used to drive the height adjustment frame 20 to move up and down inside the processing machine tool 1, so that the corresponding fixed preheating frame 22 and movable preheating frame 25 are above the processing machine tool 1, and at the same time, the central axis of the circular through groove formed by the arc groove between the selected fixed preheating frame 22 and movable preheating frame 25 coincides with the central axis of the rotating frame 11. At this time, the steel pipe is passed through the fixed preheating frame 22 and the movable preheating frame 25, and the driving end of the servo electric cylinder 24 is used to control the movable preheating frame 25 to approach one side of the fixed preheating frame 22, and the arc groove set on one side of the fixed preheating frame 22 and the movable preheating frame 25 is used to cover the surface of the steel pipe, and the electric heating plate set on the inner side wall of the arc groove is used to preheat the surface of the steel pipe, so as to facilitate subsequent further processing of the steel pipe.

This design enables the preheating unit to be adaptively adjusted according to the size of the steel pipe. The arc grooves on the opposite sides of the three fixed preheating frames 22 and the three movable preheating frames 25 gradually decrease in diameter from bottom to top, which can adapt to steel pipes of different diameters, and their number can be increased or decreased as needed, which greatly enhances the versatility; the through groove on the top of the processing machine tool 1 cooperates with the two lifting servo linear slides The platform 19 drives the height adjustment frame 20 to move up and down, and can accurately adjust the matching fixed preheating frame 22 and movable preheating frame 25 to the appropriate position, so that the central axis of the circular through groove formed by the arc grooves of the two coincides with the central axis of the rotating frame 11, ensuring smooth feeding of the steel pipe; during preheating, the servo electric cylinder 1 24 drives the movable preheating frame 25 to approach the fixed preheating frame 22, and uses the electric heating plate on the inner wall of the arc groove to perform a covering preheating on the steel pipe, which not only achieves a uniform and efficient preheating effect, but also provides a good pretreatment foundation for subsequent bending processing, effectively improving the quality and efficiency of steel pipe processing.

The combination of the connecting frame 28, the mounting frame 29, and the servo electric cylinder 2 (30) can drive the bending limit frame 31 to move flexibly, cooperating with the bending frame 27 to achieve clamping and limiting of the steel pipe. The bending grooves on the bending limit frame 31 and bending frame 27 correspond to the arcuate grooves on the fixed preheating frame 22 and movable preheating frame 25 in the workpiece preheating unit. This adaptive design allows the bending unit to process steel pipes of different specifications, greatly enhancing its versatility. During actual processing, servo cylinder 2 30 drives the bending limit frame 31 to cooperate with the bending frame 27 to clamp the steel pipe. The rotary servo motor 32 then drives the rotary table 26 to rotate the steel pipe along the bending groove, completing the precise bending.

[0049] As a further explanation of the solution of this embodiment, the bending auxiliary unit 6 includes an electric clamp 54, and a lifting drive frame 49 is fixedly provided on the front and rear sides of one side of the processing machine tool 1, and a lifting frame 51 is slidably provided between the two lifting drive frames 49 through an electric control slide. A feeding slide rail 52 is fixedly provided on the top of the lifting frame 51, and two feeding sliders 53 are slidably provided on the top of the feeding slide rail 52. Electric clamps 54 are fixedly provided on the top of the two feeding sliders 53, and rubber pads are provided on the inner walls of the two electric clamps 54.
[0050] It should be noted that before bending the steel pipe, the memory alloy component is placed on the top of the two electric clamps 54, and the two electric clamps 54 are used to stretch the memory alloy component into a straight state. Then, the lifting drive frame 49 is used to drive the lifting frame 51 to move upward, and the feeding slider 53 on the right is used to send the memory alloy component to the left. After the memory alloy component is lifted to the same horizontal line as the steel pipe, the feeding slider 53 on the right is used to cooperate with the electric clamps 54 to continuously feed the right end of the memory alloy component into the interior of the steel pipe, and the electric heating plates inside the fixed preheating frame 22 and the movable preheating frame 25 are used to heat the steel pipe, so that the memory alloy component inside the steel pipe reaches the phase change temperature, and then the memory alloy component is expanded inside the steel pipe. The expanded memory alloy component is used to support the inside of the steel pipe, thereby improving the accuracy and quality of the steel pipe during the bending process.
[0051] Example 4
[0052] Specifically, this embodiment discloses a bending and cutting method based on steel pipe processing, including the following steps:
[0053] Step 1, place the steel pipe to be processed on the feed rack 10 of the rotary feeding unit 2, adjust the position of the feed rack 10 on the processing machine tool 1 by the feed adjustment linear slide 7 and the adjustment slider 8, use the built-in electric push rod of the adjustment slider 8 to control the lifting plate 9 to move up and down, so that the feed rack 10 adapts to the height of the steel pipe, start the micro electric cylinder 13, drive the positioning plate 14 to approach the surface of the steel pipe, and the ball on one side of the positioning plate 14 contacts the surface of the steel pipe to complete the feed positioning; at the same time, select a suitable number of limit blocks 15 to make them contact with the surface of the steel pipe, drive the drive gear 16 to rotate through the drive motor 17, and combine with the meshing transmission with the annular tooth groove 18 to control the rotation of the rotating rack 11 to realize the rotation positioning of the steel pipe;
[0054] Step 2: According to the size specifications of the steel pipe to be processed, use two lifting servo linear slides 19 to drive the height adjustment frame 20 to move up and down inside the processing machine tool 1, select the matching fixed preheating frame 22 and movable preheating frame 25, so that the central axis of the circular through groove formed by the arc grooves of the two coincides with the central axis of the rotating frame 11, pass the steel pipe through the fixed preheating frame 22 and the movable preheating frame 25, start the servo electric cylinder 1 24, drive the movable preheating frame 25 to move closer to the fixed preheating frame 22, and use the electric heating plate on the inner wall of the arc groove to perform a covering preheating on the surface of the steel pipe in preparation for subsequent processing;
[0055] Step 3: While the steel pipe is preheating, the memory alloy component is placed on top of the two electric clamps 54 of the bending auxiliary unit 6. The electric clamps 54 stretch the memory alloy component into a horizontal straight state. The lifting frame 51 is driven upward by the lifting drive frame 49, and the memory alloy component is sent to the same level as the steel pipe by the feeding slide rail 52 and the feeding slider 53. Then, the right end of the memory alloy component is continuously fed into the interior of the steel pipe. As the steel pipe is preheated, the internal memory alloy component reaches the phase change temperature and expands to form a support for the interior of the steel pipe.
[0056] Step 4: Send one end of the preheated steel pipe with the memory alloy component placed inside to the side of the bending frame 27 of the bending unit 5, start the servo electric cylinder 2 30, drive the bending limit frame 31 to contact the bending frame 27, use the bending grooves on both to clamp and limit the one end of the steel pipe, and rotate the servo motor 32 to drive the rotating table 26 to rotate, thereby driving the bending frame 27 to rotate, so that the one end of the steel pipe is accurately bent along the bending groove;
[0057] Step 5. According to the cutting requirements, use the horizontal adjustment linear slide 35 to adjust the position of the cutting frame 36 in the cutting unit 4, locate the steel pipe cutting position, start the drive motor 2 41, and drive the rotating frame 2 39 to rotate through the engagement transmission of the driving gear 2 40 and the annular tooth groove 2 42, so that the laser 43 performs ring cutting on the steel pipe. During the cutting process, the air pump 46 blows the protective gas in the auxiliary gas box 45 into the cutting chamber 38 through the blowing port on the inner wall of the cutting auxiliary ring 44. At the same time, the suction pump 48 absorbs the waste generated by the cutting into the waste collection box 47 through the suction port on the side wall of the cutting auxiliary ring 44. The rubber sealing rings and cross cuts on both sides of the cutting chamber 38 ensure the protective gas environment in the chamber, completing the steel pipe cutting operation.
