Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of copper capillary processing, and more specifically to a copper capillary expansion device. Background Art

[0002] Copper capillary tubes are made by cold extrusion and are widely used in refrigeration, air conditioning, cold water engineering, environmental protection engineering and other fields. When copper capillary tubes are used, in order to facilitate the installation of the connecting joints, the connecting end of the copper capillary tubes will be expanded to enlarge the inner diameter of the tube mouth and facilitate the insertion of the connecting joints.

[0003] Chinese patent authorization announcement number: CN218744458U discloses a copper capillary reaming device. In this scheme, the reaming head can reame the copper capillary. Since the reaming head and the feeding hole are located on the same straight line, the U-shaped frame is fixed on the clamping block, the reaming head can move horizontally, which can prevent the reaming direction from changing easily and improve the reaming effect of the copper capillary.

[0004] Since the reaming tool and the copper capillary tube wall will generate large friction resistance during the reaming process, reaming becomes more difficult. At the same time, the friction resistance will cause the friction between the reaming tool and the copper capillary tube wall to increase, which may cause the reaming tool to wear more and shorten its service life. Therefore, a copper capillary expansion device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

Subsequently, the reaming shaft coated with lubricating oil is inserted into the interior of the copper capillary body for reaming. The friction between the reaming shaft and the wall of the copper capillary body can be reduced. The lubricant acts as a flow guide, which can enable the reaming shaft to be smoothly inserted into the copper capillary body, thereby reducing the difficulty of reaming.

[0028] Example:

[0029] See also Figure 1-3 A copper capillary expansion device comprises a workbench 1 and a copper capillary body 9, a bracket 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the workbench 1, and a support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top end of the workbench 1, a cylinder 4 is installed at the outer end of the support plate 3, an output end of the cylinder 4 passes through the cylinder 4 and is fixedly connected to a reaming shaft 5, and a lubrication component 6 is arranged at the top end of the workbench 1;

[0030] The lubrication assembly 6 includes a fixed ring 61, which is fixed to the top of the workbench 1 through a support rod. A plurality of evenly distributed nozzles 62 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixed ring 61. The nozzles 62 are connected to the fixed ring 61. An annular cavity is provided in the nozzle 62, and the annular cavity is connected to the fixed ring 61.

[0031] In this solution, the expansion shaft 5 is controlled to move by the cylinder 4 , so that the expansion shaft 5 approaches the connection end of the copper capillary body 9 and is inserted into the inside of the copper capillary body 9 . The expansion shaft 5 can expand the copper capillary body 9 .

[0032] Among them, in the process of the reaming shaft 5 approaching the connecting end of the copper capillary body 9, the reaming shaft 5 preferentially passes through the fixing ring 61, so that the lubricating oil is evenly sprayed on the surface of the reaming shaft 5 through multiple nozzles 62, and then the reaming shaft 5 coated with the lubricating oil on the surface is inserted into the interior of the copper capillary body 9 for reaming, which can reduce the friction between the reaming shaft 5 and the wall of the copper capillary body 9. The lubricant acts as a flow guide, which can make the reaming shaft 5 smoothly inserted into the copper capillary body 9, reduce the difficulty of reaming, and at the same time reduce the wear of the reaming shaft 5 and increase its service life.

[0033] See also Figure 3 The fixing ring 61 is coaxially arranged with the reaming shaft 5 , and the inner diameter of the fixing ring 61 is larger than the outer diameter of the reaming shaft 5 , thereby ensuring that the reaming shaft 5 can smoothly pass through the fixing ring 61 .

[0034] See also Figure 1-3 The lubrication assembly 6 also includes an oil tank 63 fixed to the top of the workbench 1, and a pressure pump 64 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the oil tank 63. The input end of the pressure pump 64 extends to the inner cavity of the oil tank 63, and the output end of the pressure pump 64 is fixedly connected to the fixing ring 61.

[0035] In this embodiment, an oil filling pipe is also installed at the top of the oil tank 63, and lubricating oil can be added to the oil tank 63 through the oil filling pipe. During the process of reaming the copper capillary body 9 by the reaming shaft 5, the reaming shaft 5 preferentially passes through the fixing ring 61. At this time, the lubricating oil in the oil tank 63 can be transported to the fixing ring 61 by starting the pressure pump 64, and then evenly sprayed on the surface of the reaming shaft 5 through multiple nozzles 62, thereby reducing the friction between the reaming shaft 5 and the inner wall of the copper capillary body 9.

[0036] See also Figure 1-2 A plurality of evenly distributed oil drip grooves are provided inside the workbench 1, and the plurality of oil drip grooves are distributed on both sides of the fixed ring 61. A collecting box 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the workbench 1, and the collecting box 10 is located directly below the plurality of oil drip grooves, and an oil drain pipe connected thereto is installed at the outer end of the collecting box 10.

[0037] In this embodiment, the lubricating oil discharged from the lubrication assembly 6 can be discharged through the set oil drip groove, and the collecting box 10 is arranged directly below the oil drip groove to collect the lubricating oil. In addition, a valve for controlling the closure is installed on the oil drain pipe, and the collected lubricating oil can be discharged for recycling by opening the valve.

[0038] See also Figure 1-2 A slide groove is provided at the top of the workbench 1, and a pair of clamping seats 7 are arranged at the top of the workbench 1. The bottom ends of the pair of clamping seats 7 are fixedly connected with sliders, and the sliders are slidably connected to the slide groove. A clamping groove 11 matching the copper capillary body 9 is provided on the side close to each other of the pair of clamping seats 7. A bidirectional screw rod 8 matching the pair of sliders is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove. The end of the bidirectional screw rod 8 away from the inner wall of the slide groove passes through the workbench 1 and is fixedly connected with a handle.

[0039] The bidirectional screw rod 8 is rotated by controlling the handle, so that the pair of clamping seats 7 move toward each other, and the pair of clamping grooves 11 are combined to form a clamping cavity abutting against the copper capillary body 9, thereby clamping the copper capillary body 9.

[0040] A clamping cavity formed by a combination of a pair of clamping grooves 11 is coaxially arranged with the reaming shaft 5 .

[0041] Working principle: by placing the copper capillary body 9 between a pair of clamping seats 7, and then controlling the bidirectional screw 8 to rotate by the handle, the pair of clamping seats 7 move closer to each other, and a pair of clamping grooves 11 are combined to form a clamping cavity abutting against the copper capillary body 9, so as to clamp the copper capillary body 9, and by controlling the movement of the reaming shaft 5 by the cylinder 4, the reaming shaft 5 will approach the connecting end of the copper capillary body 9 and be inserted into the inside of the copper capillary body 9, and the reaming shaft 5 can reame the copper capillary body 9. In the process of reaming the copper capillary body 9 by the reaming shaft 5, the reaming shaft 5 first passes through the fixing ring 61. At this time, the lubricating oil in the oil tank 63 can be transported to the fixing ring 61 by starting the pressure pump 64, and then evenly sprayed on the surface of the reaming shaft 5 through a plurality of nozzles 62, thereby reducing the friction between the reaming shaft 5 and the inner wall of the copper capillary body 9, reducing the difficulty of reaming, and at the same time reducing the wear degree of the reaming shaft 5, thereby increasing its service life.
