Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of welded pipe straightening technology, specifically referring to a welded pipe straightening machine. Background Technology
[0002] Workers have discovered in their steel pipe production practice that welded steel pipes (welded pipes) are prone to bending, deformation, surface weld beads, and oxide scale during production, severely affecting their dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and performance. Traditional post-processing of welded pipes typically involves multiple independent steps such as straightening, deburring, polishing, and stress relief, requiring various equipment to complete each process. This results in low production efficiency, large footprint, and the risk of secondary damage from repeated clamping. Especially during straightening, while conventional roller straightening can correct deformation, it often introduces residual stress, reducing the fatigue strength and durability of the welded pipe. Removing surface weld beads and oxide scale often relies on additional grinding or pickling, which not only increases the number of steps but also pollutes the environment. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a highly integrated, adaptive, intelligent equipment capable of simultaneously completing straightening, deburring, and stress relief for different pipe diameters, in order to improve the quality and efficiency of welded pipe processing.

The integrated design achieves seamless connection between multiple processes, significantly improving the dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and fatigue performance of the welded pipe, completely eliminating the need for subsequent polishing, and providing an efficient and reliable complete solution for high-quality welded pipe production.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 6As shown, the self-collecting weld bead removal device 4 includes a fixed frame 6, a hydraulic rod 7, a fixed frame 8, a removal roller 9, and a removal motor 10.

This pressure can cause the surface layer and even deeper metal to produce small and uniform plastic flow, thereby effectively relaxing and homogenizing the harmful residual stress generated during the straightening process.
[0040] In practical use, the device is adjusted according to the diameter of the pipe to be straightened. First, rotate the spacing adjustment screw 42. The rotation of the spacing adjustment screw 42 drives the load-bearing adjustment block 41 to rise and fall along the adjustment frame 40. The rise and fall of the load-bearing adjustment block 41 drives the upper feeding roller 38 to rise and fall, so that the distance between the upper feeding roller 38 and the lower feeding roller 46 is the same as the diameter of the pipe to be straightened. Next, rotate the radial adjustment screw 58. The rotation of the radial adjustment screw 58 drives the radial adjustment block 18 to rise and fall along the fixed frame 17. The rise and fall of the radial adjustment block 18 drives the connecting column 19 to rise and fall. The rise and fall of the connecting column 19 drives the fixed plate frame 20 to rise and fall. The rise and fall of the fixed plate frame 20 drives the roller straightening rollers 57 to rise and fall, so that each roller straightening roller 57 presses down on the pipe to be straightened. The adjustment is then complete. Then, rotate the tension screw 31. The rotation of the tension screw 31 drives the tension wheel fixing frame 30 to move. The movement of the tension wheel fixing frame 30 drives the toothed belt tensioning wheel 29 to move closer to or away from the straightening transmission toothed belt 23, so that the straightening transmission toothed belt 23 is tensioned and firmly meshed with the straightening drive gear 21 and the straightening driven gear 22. Then, start the hydraulic rod 7. The extension and retraction of the hydraulic rod 7 drives the fixing frame 8 to rise and fall. The rise and fall of the fixing frame 8 drives the cleaning roller 9 to rise and fall, so that the cleaning roller 9 contacts the welded pipe to be straightened. Place the welded pipe to be straightened on the fixed support body 1 and place it between the upper pipe feeding roller 38 and the lower pipe feeding roller 46. Start the lower pipe feeding motor 47 and the upper pipe feeding motor 39. The rotation of the lower pipe feeding motor 47 drives the lower pipe feeding roller 46 to rotate, and the rotation of the upper pipe feeding motor 39 drives the upper pipe feeding roller 38 to rotate. The lower tube feeding roller 46 rotates, driving the welded pipe to feed gradually between the roller straightening wheels 57. The straightening motor 26 is started, driving the straightening drive gear 21, which in turn drives the straightening transmission belt 23, which in turn drives the straightening driven gear 22, thereby rotating the roller straightening wheels 57 to straighten the welded pipe. The cleaning motor 10 is then started, driving the cleaning roller 9, which in turn drives the cleaning blade 13. The cleaning blade 13 scrapes away weld beads and oxide scale from the welded pipe surface, effectively reducing surface roughness and eliminating the need for subsequent polishing. Foreign objects can be drawn into the spiral groove 12 during scraping and then discharged with the rotation of the roller 11. The spiral groove 12 is consistent with the feeding direction of the welded pipe and can also generate axial thrust during rotation, which assists in pipe feeding and reduces the load on the pipe feeding mechanism 2. After straightening and deburring, the welded pipe moves to the residual stress relief device 5. The fixed support relief roller 49 performs support-type roller pressing on the welded pipe, and the upper relief roller 56 performs downward elastic roller pressing on the welded pipe, applying uniform and gentle pressure to the entire surface of the welded pipe. This pressure can promote the generation of small and uniform plastic flow in the surface layer and even deeper layers of metal, thereby effectively relaxing and homogenizing the harmful residual stress generated during the straightening process, and further enhancing the service life of the welded pipe. The above is the specific working process of the present invention. This step can be repeated next time it is used.
