The opposite sides of a group of clamping molds 21 are connected to the corresponding movable seats 22 by bolts 212, and the axis of the bolts 212 is perpendicular to the axis of the arc groove 211. When the diameter of the pipe 1 to be necked is different, the corresponding group of clamping molds 21 can be replaced by removing the bolts 212, so that the replacement operation is convenient, and it can be ensured that the axis of the arc groove 211 corresponding to the replaced group of clamping molds 21 is kept in line with the axis of the necking end 31 of the necking mechanism 30, thereby avoiding affecting the coaxiality of the pipe 1 after necking. The bottom surface of the movable seat 22 is slidably connected to the slide rail 12, and the outer side surface of the movable seat 22 is provided with a driving assembly for driving the movable seat 22 so that a group of clamping molds 21 are opposite to each other along the slide rail 12 to clamp the pipe 1 to be necked, or move away from each other to loosen the necked pipe 1.
[0027] Specifically, Figure 2 - Figure 5 As shown, a set of avoidance grooves 13 is provided between the two sets of slide rails 12, and the outer ends of the set of avoidance grooves 13 respectively penetrate the sides of the top plate 11 on both sides, and four guide light axes 15 are vertically provided on the bottom surface of the top plate 11.

[0028] When in use, start the cylinder 27, so that the cylinder 27 pushes the slider 26 to move upward along the guide light axis 15, so that the upper end of the secondary force-boosting connecting rod 25 rotates downward, so that the secondary force-boosting connecting rod 25 drives the force-boosting rocker arm 23 and the connection between the secondary force-boosting connecting rod 25 to move synchronously, so that the force-boosting rocker arm 23 rotates around the connection between the force-boosting rocker arm 23 and the movable seat 22, so that the upper end of the force-boosting rocker arm 23 rotates downward, so that the force-boosting rocker arm 23 drives the connection between the primary force-boosting connecting rod 24 and the movable seat 22 to approach the pipe fitting 1 to be necked, thereby clamping the pipe fitting 1.
[0029] More specifically, Figure 5 As shown, a side of the movable seat 22 facing a group of clamping molds 21 is provided with a protrusion 221, and a side of a group of clamping molds 21 facing the movable seat 22 is provided with a groove 213. The protrusion 221 is engaged with the groove 213 to further improve the position accuracy of the group of clamping molds 21 after installation. A group of reinforcing ribs 222 are provided at intervals on the other side of the movable seat 22, and the force-enhancing first-level connecting rod 24 is rotatably connected to the reinforcing ribs 222.

The guide block 224 is slidably connected to the slide rail 12 to reduce the friction between the moving seat 22 and the track 12.
[0031] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, one end of the two clamping mechanisms 20 is respectively provided with a V-shaped block 16, and the projections of the inclined surfaces on both sides of the V-shaped block 16 on the necking end 31 are tangent to the outer periphery of the necking end 31. When in use, the necking end of the pipe fitting 1 to be necked is placed in the necking end 31, and the parts of the pipe fitting 1 that do not need to be necked are supported and limited by the two V-shaped blocks 16, so as to facilitate the two clamping mechanisms 20 to clamp the pipe fitting 1 when necking.
[0032] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not mean that it is the only one or limit the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that various changes or equivalent replacements made to the utility model without departing from the scope of the utility model are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
