When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0038] Example 1:

[0039] The embodiment of the present invention provides a high-pressure pipe expansion device for ships, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 3As shown, it includes: a base 1, a clamping mechanism and a flaring mechanism are provided on the base 1, the clamping mechanism is used to clamp the pipe body 2, the flaring mechanism is arranged on one side of the clamping mechanism, the flaring mechanism includes a movable seat 3, a flaring cone 4 and an oil injection assembly, a mounting hole 5 is provided in the movable seat 3, a flaring cone 4 is provided at the center of the mounting hole 5, an oil injection assembly is provided in the mounting hole 5, and the oil injection assembly is used to spray lubricating oil to the side of the flaring cone 4, a connecting box 6 is provided on the side of the movable seat 3 away from the clamping mechanism, and a driving mechanism is provided on the side of the connecting box 6 away from the movable seat 3.

[0040] After the flaring operation is completed, the pipe body 2 is first placed in the clamping mechanism of the base 1, and then the pipe body 2 is clamped by the clamping mechanism to ensure that the pipe body 2 will not be displaced during the flaring process. Then, the lubricating oil is sprayed to the outside of the flaring cone 4 through the oil spraying assembly. After the spraying is completed, the driving mechanism is started, and the driving mechanism drives the movable seat 3 to move toward the direction of the pipe body 2 through the connecting box 6. The movable seat 3 drives the flaring cone 4 to move toward the direction of the pipe body 2. The flaring cone 4 has a cone structure, and the diameter of the end of the flaring cone 4 close to the connecting box 6 is larger than the diameter of the end of the flaring cone 4 away from the connecting box 6. The flaring cone 4 is aligned with the pipe mouth of the pipe body 2. When the flaring cone 4 contacts the pipe mouth, it continues to apply thrust, so that the pipe mouth is gradually expanded and formed under the action of the flaring cone 4 until the flaring cone 4 expands the pipe mouth to a preset size. The preset size is set by the actual processing. Finally, the driving mechanism is controlled to retract, the flaring cone 4 is separated from the pipe mouth, and the flaring work of the pipe body 2 is completed. By arranging an oil spray assembly on the outside of the flaring cone 4 and using the oil spray assembly to evenly spray lubricating oil on the outer wall of the flaring cone 4, a lubricating film is formed between the flaring cone 4 and the pipe body 2, which can effectively reduce the friction between the flaring cone 4 and the pipe body 2, significantly slow down the wear rate of the flaring cone 4, and extend the service life of the flaring cone 4. In addition, by lubricating the flaring cone 4 and the pipe mouth of the pipe body 2 with lubricating oil, the pipe mouth can be subjected to more uniform force during the flaring process, reducing quality problems such as pipe mouth deformation and surface scratches caused by uneven friction, improving the dimensional accuracy and surface finish of the pipe body 2 after flaring, enhancing the consistency and stability of the flaring of the pipe body 2, and improving product quality.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] On the basis of the above embodiment 1, Figure 3 As shown, the clamping mechanism includes several support blocks 7, the upper surface of the support blocks 7 is provided with grooves, the grooves are used to place the pipe body 2, and a pressure plate 8 is provided above the support blocks 7. The lower surface of the pressure plate 8 is adapted to the outer wall of the pipe body 2. The upper end of the pressure plate 8 is connected to the output end of the first electric push rod 9. The first electric push rod 9 is provided on the mounting frame 10, and the mounting frame 10 is provided on the base 1;

[0043] A baffle 11 is provided on the side of the base 1 away from the driving mechanism.

[0044] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: before performing the flaring operation, the pipe body 2 is first placed in the groove of the support block 7, the movement of the pipe body 2 is restricted by the groove, and the pipe body 2 is positioned, and then the first electric push rod 9 is started, the first electric push rod 9 is extended to drive the pressure plate 8 to move downward, and the lower surface of the pressure plate 8 contacts the pipe body 2, thereby clamping the pipe body 2 and restricting the movement of the pipe body 2. Under the clamping action of the clamping mechanism, the pipe body 2 can remain stable during the flaring operation and will not be displaced by the force of the flaring cone 4. A baffle 11 is provided on one side of the base 1, and the baffle 11 blocks the end of the pipe body 2 away from the flaring mechanism to prevent the pipe body 2 from sliding on the support block 7, further improving the stability of the pipe body 2 and ensuring the flaring quality. After the flaring operation is completed, the first electric push rod 9 is retracted, and the flared pipe body 2 can be taken out from the support block 7.

[0045] Example 3:

[0046] On the basis of Example 1 or 2, as Figure 3 As shown, the driving mechanism includes a second electric push rod 12 . The second electric push rod 12 is arranged on the base 1 , and the output end of the second electric push rod 12 is connected to the connection box 6 .

[0047] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: the second electric push rod 12 is extended to drive the connecting box 6 to move toward the pipe body 2, and the connecting box 6 drives the moving seat 3 to slide on the surface of the base 1, thereby driving the expanding cone 4 in the moving seat 3 to move toward the pipe body 2. During this process, the expanding cone 4 gradually contacts the pipe mouth. As the expanding cone 4 continues to move, the pipe mouth gradually expands. When the pipe mouth expands to a preset size, the expanding operation is completed, and the second electric push rod 12 retracts to the initial position, so that the expanding cone 4 is separated from the pipe mouth, waiting for the next expanding operation. The second electric push rod 12 can provide a smooth and continuous linear driving force, thereby ensuring that the force is uniform during the expanding process of the pipe body 2, effectively improving the accuracy and consistency of the expanding size, and improving product quality.

[0048] Example 4:

[0049] On the basis of any one of Examples 1-3, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4As shown, the oil injection assembly includes a sliding block 13, which is arranged on the side of the mounting hole 5 close to the connecting box 6, the front side of the sliding block 13 is connected to the output end of the third electric push rod 14, the third electric push rod 14 is arranged on the outer wall of the moving seat 3, and a shunt pipe 15 is arranged on the side of the sliding block 13 away from the connecting box 6. The shunt pipe 15 is arranged along the busbar direction of the flaring cone 4, and a plurality of nozzles 16 are arranged on the side of the shunt pipe 15 close to the flaring cone 4. One end of the shunt pipe 15 is connected to the output end of the first pump body 17 through the oil supply pipe, and the input end of the first pump body 17 is connected to the oil tank 21. The first pump body 17 and the oil tank 21 are arranged in the connecting box 6.

[0050] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: when the pipe body 2 is clamped, the third electric push rod 14 pushes the sliding block 13 to move, and the sliding block 13 drives the shunt pipe 15 to move toward the flaring cone 4 until the distance between the nozzle 16 and the surface of the flaring cone 4 reaches the preset spraying distance, which is 6-8mm. Then the first pump body 17 is started, and the oil tank 21 stores lubricating oil. The first pump body 17 is started to pump the lubricating oil into the oil supply pipe, and the lubricating oil flows into the shunt pipe 15 through the oil supply pipe, and finally passes through the multiple nozzles 16. The lubricating oil is sprayed onto the outside of the flaring cone 4 in the form of a spray. After the lubricating oil is sprayed, the first pump body 17 stops working, and the third electric push rod 14 drives the sliding block 13 to move to the initial position, and the lubricating oil is sprayed onto the outer wall of the flaring cone 4 through the nozzle 16. A lubricating oil film can be formed on the surface of the flaring cone 4, thereby reducing the friction coefficient between the flaring cone 4 and the pipe mouth, reducing the wear of the flaring cone 4, and extending the service life of the flaring cone 4. In addition, since the wear of the flaring cone 4 is reduced, the flaring quality of the pipe mouth can be improved, and the flaring cone 4 can be prevented from scratching the inner wall of the pipe mouth.

[0051] Example 5:

[0052] On the basis of Example 4, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 As shown, an oil receiving hole 18 is provided on the bottom wall of the movable base 3, the oil receiving hole 18 is communicated with the mounting hole 5, a filter screen 19 is provided on the upper end of the oil receiving hole 18, a recovery pipe is provided in the movable base 3, one end of the recovery pipe is communicated with one end of the oil receiving hole 18, and the other end of the recovery pipe is connected to the input end of the second pump body 20, the second pump body 20 is provided in the connection box 6, and the output end of the second pump body 20 is connected to the oil tank 21;

[0053] A guide block 23 is provided at the bottom of the oil receiving hole 18, and the height of the guide block 23 close to the connection box 6 is lower than the height of the guide block 23 away from the connection box 6;

[0054] A first scraper 22 is provided on one side of the sliding block 13 . The first scraper 22 is provided along the generatrix direction of the flared cone 4 . The first scraper 22 is parallel to the diverter pipe 15 . One side of the first scraper 22 contacts the outer wall of the flared cone 4 .

[0055] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: during the process of the nozzle 16 spraying the lubricating oil, part of the lubricating oil will drip onto the bottom wall of the movable seat 3, and the lubricating oil will flow into the oil receiving hole 18 after being filtered by the filter 19, and will be collected at the end of the oil receiving hole 18 close to the connecting box 6 under the action of the guide block 23, and then the second pump body 20 will be started, and the second pump body 20 will extract the lubricating oil in the oil receiving hole 18 into the oil tank 21 through the recovery pipe, so as to realize the recycling of the lubricating oil and save costs. By setting the filter 19, impurities in the lubricating oil can be filtered to prevent impurities from entering the oil tank 21, thereby reducing scratches or wear on the surface of the flaring cone 4 caused by impurities, and further extending the service life of the flaring cone 4.

[0056] Example 6:

[0057] On the basis of Example 4 or 5, Figure 4 As shown, the movable base 3 is provided with a first through hole near one end of the connection box 6, and a second through hole is provided on the side wall of the connection box 6. The first through hole is connected to the second through hole. A mounting post 24 is slidably provided in the first through hole. One end of the mounting post 24 is fixedly connected to the flaring cone 4. The other end of the mounting post 24 extends into the connection box 6 and is provided with a connecting hole 25. A plurality of connecting grooves 26 are provided on the inner wall of the connecting hole 25. The connecting hole 25 is connected to the drive motor 27 through a connecting mechanism.

[0058] The driving motor 27 is connected to the upper surface of the oil tank 21 through a slider so as to slide left and right.

[0059] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: a mounting post 24 is provided on one side of the flaring cone 4 close to the connecting box 6, and the mounting post 24 is fixedly connected to the flaring cone 4. By connecting the mounting post 24 to the connecting mechanism, the flaring cone 4 can be installed in the mounting hole 5 of the movable seat 3, and the rotation of the driving motor 27 can drive the mounting post 24 to rotate through the connecting mechanism, and the rotation of the mounting post 24 can drive the flaring cone 4 to rotate. When the oil spraying assembly sprays lubricating oil to the flaring cone 4, the driving motor 27 is started and drives the mounting post 24 to rotate a preset angle through the connecting mechanism, and the preset angle is greater than 360°. At the same time, the mounting post 24 drives the flaring cone 4 to rotate in the mounting hole 5, so that the lubricating oil can be evenly sprayed to the outer wall of the flaring cone 4. Therefore, only one set of oil spraying assemblies needs to be set to spray the lubricating oil to the contact surface between the flaring cone 4 and the pipe mouth, thereby improving the spraying effect. At the same time, A first scraper 22 is provided below the diverter pipe 15. During the lubricating oil spraying process, the first scraper 22 contacts the outer wall of the flaring cone 4. The first scraper 22 can scrape the remaining lubricating oil and impurities on the outer wall of the flaring cone 4 to the bottom of the first scraper 22, and then the lubricating oil is sprayed by the nozzle 16, thereby improving the uniformity of the thickness of the lubricating oil film, improving the lubrication effect, and avoiding the outer wall of the flaring cone 4 from being damaged by uneven force when the pipe mouth is expanded due to the accumulation of lubricating oil or impurities, ensuring the consistency of the expansion, reducing the quality problems of the expansion, and improving the product quality. By providing the scraper, the frequency of manual cleaning of the flaring cone 4 can also be reduced, and the maintenance difficulty and labor cost of the flaring cone 4 can be reduced. The lubricating oil and impurities scraped off by the scraper can fall onto the filter 19, the impurities are intercepted by the filter 19, and the lubricating oil enters the oil receiving hole 18 through the filter 19, thereby realizing the recycling of the lubricating oil.

[0060] Example 7:

[0061] On the basis of Example 6, Figure 4 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 12As shown, the connecting mechanism includes a connecting column 28, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting hole 25 left and right, one end of the connecting column 28 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 27, a first sliding hole 29 is provided in the connecting column 28, and the first sliding hole 29 is provided with a mounting cavity 30 at one end close to the flaring cone 4, and the other end of the first sliding hole 29 is connected to the outside of the connecting column 28 through a second sliding hole 31, a plurality of mounting grooves 32 are provided on the outer wall of the connecting column 28, and the mounting groove 32 is connected to the mounting cavity 30 through a third sliding hole 33, and an elastic plate 34 is provided in the mounting groove 32, and one end of the elastic plate 34 is connected to the end of the mounting groove 32 away from the flaring cone 4 Then, a block 35 is provided at one end of the elastic plate 34 near the flared cone 4, and the block 35 is adapted to the connecting groove 26. A sliding rod 36 is slidably provided in the first sliding hole 29, and one end of the sliding rod 36 extends into the mounting cavity 30 and is provided with a first hinged rod 37. The first hinged rod 37 is hingedly connected to one end of the second hinged rod 38 away from one end of the sliding rod 36, and the other end of the second hinged rod 38 passes through the third sliding hole 33 and is hingedly connected to the side wall of the block 35. A driving rod 39 is provided in the second sliding hole 31, and one end of the driving rod 39 is connected to the sliding rod 36. The driving rod 39 is connected to the inner wall of the second sliding hole 31 through a return spring 40.

[0062] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: when installing the flared cone 4, the mounting post 24 on one side of the flared cone 4 is inserted into the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence, and the connecting post 28 is aligned with the connecting hole 25 and inserted into the connecting hole 25. As the flared cone 4 is pushed inward, the connecting post 28 slides in the connecting hole 25, and a guide slope is set at one end of the clamping block 35 away from the drive motor 27. When the clamping block 35 contacts the connecting hole 25, the contact between the connecting hole 25 and the guide slope can make the clamping block 35 move into the mounting groove 32, the elastic plate 34 bends, and then the connecting post 28 slides smoothly into the connecting hole 25.

When the fuel injection assembly is spraying fuel, the drive motor 27 rotates to drive the connecting column 28 to rotate, and the connecting column 28 passes through the block 3 5 drives the mounting post 24 to rotate, and the rotation of the mounting post 24 drives the flaring cone 4 to rotate, thereby achieving all-round oil spraying on the surface of the flaring cone 4; when the flaring cone 4 is damaged, the driving rod 39 is pulled in the direction close to the driving motor 27, and the driving rod 39 drives the sliding rod 36 to slide in the first sliding hole 29 in the direction close to the driving motor 27, and the sliding rod 36 drives the second hinged rod 38 to move, and the second hinged rod 38 drives the first hinged rod 37 to slide into the mounting cavity 30, and the first hinged rod 37 drives the clamping block 35 to slide into the mounting groove 32, so that the clamping block 35 is separated from the connecting groove 26, and at this time, the flaring cone 4 is pulled away from the connecting box 6. , the mounting post 24 can be separated from the connecting post 28, thereby taking the flaring cone 4 out of the mounting hole 5, realizing the rapid removal of the flaring cone 4. By setting the connecting mechanism, the flaring cone 4 can be quickly disassembled and assembled, which is convenient for the rapid replacement of the damaged flaring cone 4, ensuring the flaring quality of the pipe body 2, reducing the downtime for replacement, and improving the production efficiency.

[0065] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: during the retraction process of the second electric push rod 12, since the flaring cone 4 contacts the pipe mouth, the flaring cone 4 will drive the mounting column 24 to slide in the first through hole, thereby driving the drive motor 27 to slide above the oil tank 21 through the connecting column 28. In order to avoid the drive motor 27 from hitting and prolong the service life of the connecting mechanism, a first annular groove 41 is provided on the outer wall of the movable seat 3, a movable ring 43 is slidingly provided in the first annular groove 41, and three connecting blocks 49 are slidingly provided in the movable ring 43. One end of the connecting block 49 contacts the outer wall of the flaring cone 4 close to the end of the connecting box 6. The three connecting blocks 49 contact the flaring cone 4, which can The mouth cone 4 is limited. When the second electric push rod 12 is retracted, the connecting box 6 drives the moving seat 3 to slide in the direction away from the pipe body 2. Since the flaring cone 4 is in contact with the pipe mouth of the pipe body 2, the flaring cone 4 will not move with the moving seat 3. The flaring cone 4 drives the moving ring 43 to slide in the first ring groove 41 through the connecting block 49. The moving ring 43 slides along the guide column 44, and the first spring 45 is stretched. When the outer wall of the moving ring 43 contacts the inner wall of the first ring groove 41 away from the side of the connecting box 6, the moving ring 43 cannot continue to slide.

By setting the movable ring 43 and the connecting block 49, when the movable ring 43 contacts the side of the first ring groove 41 away from the connection box 6, the driving motor 27 will not collide with the inner wall of the connection box 6, effectively The drive motor 27 is protected, and in the process of separating the flaring cone 4 from the pipe mouth, there is no need to rely on the cooperation of the clamping block 35 and the connecting groove 26, thereby avoiding damage to the clamping block 35, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the mounting column 24 and the connecting column 28, and extending the service life of the connection mechanism; when removing the flaring cone 4, the servo motor 54 is started, the servo motor 54 rotates to drive the driving gear 55 to rotate, the driving gear 55 rotates to drive the rotating gear ring 52 to rotate, the rotating gear ring 52 rotates to drive the driving plate 53 to slide in the seventh sliding hole 47, and the contact position of the driving plate 53 and the connecting block 49 gradually increases.
