[0002] Aircraft ducts are slender tubular structures made of LF2M aluminum alloy. The ends of the ducts are usually processed with end corrugations. During installation, a corrugated hose of the same specification is assembled with the aircraft duct and fastened with a clamp. The end corrugations of aircraft ducts are usually processed by rolling tools or duct end processing equipment. The tooling used in existing production is a mandrel, which is used to extend into the duct for support. The head of the mandrel is provided with a circle of raised corrugations, and a roller with a circle of grooves is provided at the corresponding position of the outer wall of the duct; during processing, after the processing equipment applies pressure, it rotates and rolls along the radial direction of the duct to form corrugations on the outer wall of the duct. For large-diameter ducts, the traditional processing method has a good effect. However, when processing the end corrugations of small-diameter ducts of 6mm-10mm, due to the small inner diameter of the duct, the diameter of the rolling tool or mandrel used is small, the strength of the mandrel is poor, and the pressure from the inner wall of the duct to the duct is insufficient, resulting in the height of the processed corrugated rolling waves failing to meet the index requirements, and the axis of the duct is prone to deflection after the corrugation is formed. In addition, because the mandrel is too thin, it often breaks during the processing, resulting in poor corrugation effect at the end of the aircraft duct and low processing efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0044] Reference Figure 1-Figure 8 , the diameter of the catheter is 6-8mm. In order to realize the processing of the end corrugation of a small diameter catheter with a diameter of 6-10mm, the utility model proposes a small diameter catheter end corrugation processing device, including a guide support 1, a clamping plate 2, a punch 3 and a clamping member. The side wall of the guide support 1 is symmetrically provided with planes, a guide through hole 101 and a first catheter mounting groove 103 are coaxially provided in the middle of a plane, and a first corrugated forming groove 102 is provided at the end connected to the guide through hole; the middle of the clamping plate 2 is coaxially provided with a second corrugated forming groove 201 and a second catheter mounting groove 202 connected, the upper and lower surfaces of the clamping plate are planes, and after the lower surface is fitted with the upper surface of the guide support, the first catheter mounting groove and the second mounting guide groove cooperate to form a guide hole that wraps the catheter 4; the first corrugated forming groove and the second corrugated forming groove have the same shape and radial dimensions as the end corrugation to be formed, and the axial dimension is equal to half of the end corrugation to be formed. One end of the punch 3 is provided with a connected corrugation forming hole 301 and a central blind hole 302 along the axis. The shape and radial size of the corrugation forming hole 301 are the same as the end corrugation to be formed, and the axial size is equal to half of the end corrugation to be formed.

[0045] The clamping piece is used to clamp the assembled guide support and the clamping plate. After clamping, the lower surface of the guide support and the upper surface of the clamping plate are respectively fitted with the clamping part of the clamping piece.

[0046] In this embodiment, the clamping member is a vise.

[0047] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The guide support 1 includes a cylindrical structure and a semi-cylindrical structure connected coaxially. A guide through hole 101 is provided along the axis in the middle of the cylindrical structure to match the outer wall of the punch 3. Since the guide through hole 101 is too short, it will cause the punch to shake during processing. Therefore, in this embodiment, the length of the guide through hole is 30-50 mm. A first guide tube installation groove 103 is provided along the axis in the middle of the semi-cylindrical structure. A first corrugated forming groove 102 is provided at the connection between the first guide tube installation groove and the guide through hole. The axial dimension of the first corrugated forming groove is half of the length of the corrugation to be formed.

[0048] The symmetrical two side walls of the semi-cylindrical structure are provided with planes, the upper surface is used to fit with the lower surface of the clamping plate 2, and the lower surface is used to fit with the clamping surface of the vise when clamped on the vise. The lower edge of the guide support is provided with a clamping platform, and the step surface of the clamping platform can fit with the upper surface of the clamping part of the clamping member, which is used for clamping and positioning the guide support on the clamping member.

[0049] Furthermore, in order to prevent the catheter from being subjected to radial shear force of the clamp when clamping, two pin holes are vertically provided on the plane of the semi-cylindrical structure and are respectively located on both sides of the first catheter mounting groove 103, for radially connecting the positioning support 1 and the clamp 2 through positioning pins.

[0050] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The clamping plate 2 is a block structure, and the bottom is a plane that fits with the upper surface of the guide support 1. The lower surface is provided with a second corrugated forming groove 201 and a second catheter mounting groove 202 coaxially connected to the corrugated forming groove. When the clamping plate is installed on the upper surface of the semicircular structure of the guide support 1, the first catheter mounting groove on the guide support 1 and the second catheter mounting groove on the clamping plate 2 cooperate to form a guide hole, and the catheter 4 can be wrapped in the guide hole; during processing, the guide hole is used to guide the working direction of the punch 3 to ensure that the thread on the end of the catheter is only subjected to axial impact force but not radial shear force during the forming process, thereby ensuring that the corrugated axis of the tube end after forming is not deflected, the catheter is evenly compressed, the corrugated forming is regular, and the roundness is high, ensuring that the end corrugation can be highly fitted with the inner surface of the hose during assembly.

[0051] The upper surface of the clamping plate 2 is provided with a plane, which is used to fit with the clamping surface of the vise when clamped on the vise. The upper edge of the clamping plate is provided with a clamping platform, and the step surface of the clamping platform can fit with the upper surface of another clamping part of the clamping piece, which is used for clamping and positioning the clamping plate on the clamping piece.

[0052] Furthermore, the clamping plate is provided with a pin hole that coincides with the axis of the pin hole of the guide support 1, and the pin holes are distributed on both sides of the second guide tube installation groove 202, and are used to radially fix the clamping plate 2 and the guide support 1 through the positioning pin. After installation, the positioning pin does not extend out of the pin hole to avoid interference with the clamping surface of the vise when installed on the vise.

[0053] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 The punch 3 is a columnar rod, with a central blind hole 302 opened along the axis in the middle of the punch, and a corrugated forming hole 301 coaxially arranged at the end of the blind hole, and the axial dimension of the corrugated forming hole 301 is half the length of the corrugation to be formed. The shape and radial dimensions of the corrugated forming hole are the same as the dimensions of the corrugation of the end to be formed. After assembly, one end of the catheter rod body is located in the central blind hole of the punch, with a small clearance fit, and the end face of the catheter is against the bottom of the central blind hole 302. The inner diameter of the central blind hole of the punch 3 is 0.05 mm larger than the outer diameter of the catheter to be processed, and the length of the central blind hole of the punch is the minimum distance from the end corrugation to be formed to the end of the catheter.

[0054] The outer wall of the punch 3 is provided with scale lines (not shown in the figure), and the end face with the corrugated forming hole is the scale line zero point, and 50 mm is engraved along the axial direction, which can intuitively show the gap size between the punch end face and the central blind hole on the guide support after the punch is inserted into the guide support when installed, ensuring the consistent forming when processing the end corrugation in small batches. The gap size is selected according to the corrugation rolling height of the end corrugation through industry processing standards.

[0055] Reference Figure 8 , is a schematic diagram of an aircraft duct structure. The duct 4 is a slender tubular structure, and the end corrugation 401 is an annular protrusion structure, and the end corrugation is located on the outer wall of the duct and close to one end of the duct. The sizes of different duct end corrugations are designed according to process requirements.

[0056] Reference Fig. 9 and Fig.10 When in use, first insert one end of the punch 3 provided with the corrugated forming hole 301 into the guide through hole 101 of the guide support 1. According to the forming requirements, there is a certain distance between the end face of the punch and the bottom of the guide hole; then insert one end of the conduit 4 to be processed into the punch along the first conduit mounting groove 103 on the guide support until the end of the conduit 4 is against the bottom of the blind hole of the punch; then place the clamp 2 on the upper surface of the guide support 1, and the second conduit mounting groove 202 on the clamp 2 and the first conduit mounting groove 103 on the guide support 1 wrap the conduit 4; radially fix the guide support 1 and the clamp 2 by two positioning pins; finally, place the assembled guide support 1 and the clamp 2 in the clamping position of the vise, so that the two clamping surfaces of the vise clamp the lower surface of the guide support 1 and the upper surface of the clamp 2.

[0057] After clamping, use a hammer to strike the other end face of the punch 3 axially until the end of the punch with the corrugated forming hole abuts against the step surface of the guide through hole 101 of the guide support, and the catheter automatically expands under the action of the extrusion force to form the required end corrugation.

[0058] The above description is only a specific implementation mode of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
