Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cold extrusion, in particular to a bushing for installing a cold extrusion joint. Background Art
[0002] Cold extruded joints are pipe connectors that can be used in fuel systems, hydraulic systems, electrical systems, drainage systems, etc. The current application installation location is mainly to replace the traditional through-wall connection method of welding or flange connection. When installing the current cold extruded joints, because the cold extruded joints need to be installed at both ends, the installation space required is large, and some small spaces are difficult to install, which limits its scope of use. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide a bushing for installing a cold extruded joint, so as to ensure that the cold extruded joint can be installed from a single side, reduce the space required for installing the cold extruded joint, and increase the application range of the cold extruded joint.
[0004] In order to achieve the purpose of the utility model, the technical solution adopted is: a bushing for installing a cold extruded joint, the bushing is made of stainless steel strip and has a certain elasticity as a whole. The bushing includes a front end bushing and a rear end flange, and is made of a stainless steel strip that is rolled into an incompletely closed circular tube and flanged at the rear end. After the core rod is inserted into the front end bushing, there is a small width gap in the circumferential direction of the bushing, and there is an overlap at the slit position in the free state. The inner diameter hole wall of the bushing is coated with a solid dry film lubricant to reduce the tension required during the extrusion installation of the cold extruded joint. A high interference amount is provided by the bushing wall thickness and the main diameter of the core rod, so that the cold extruded joint is combined with the structural frame plate after elastic-plastic deformation, and it is ensured that the cold extruded joint can be installed from a single side, reducing the space required for the installation of the cold extruded joint and increasing the scope of application of the cold extruded joint.
[0005] The advantages of the utility model are:
[0006] 1. The bushing has the advantages of high efficiency and large extrusion volume;
[0007] 2. The bushing can be applied to cold extrusion joints of aluminum alloy, stainless steel, titanium alloy and composite materials;
[0008] 3. The bushing can be used for extrusion installation of cold extrusion joints with diameters ranging from Φ3mm to Φ70mm;
[0009] 4. Simple installation process;
[0010] 5. The bushing has a slit in the axial direction, which makes it easier to install the bushing on the mandrel and simplifies the operation process;
[0011] 6. After the bushing is extruded, the inner wall surface of the cold extruded joint can be smoother, reducing stress concentration areas and micro-crack sources;
[0012] 8. The lubricating coating on the inner surface can reduce the tensile force during the extrusion process of the special tool, ensure the correct radial expansion of the cold extruded joint, and prevent damage to the cold extruded joint;
[0013] 9. It can ensure that the cold extrusion joint can be installed from one side, reducing the installation space required for the cold extrusion joint and increasing the application scope of the cold extrusion joint. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific implementation examples in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0021] Embodiment 1:
[0022] See also Figure 1 , cold extruded joint installation bushing, bushing 1 is made of stainless steel strip, and has a certain elasticity as a whole. Bushing 1 includes an incompletely closed tubular bushing body 1.1 and a rear end flange 1.2, bushing 1 is sleeved on the extrusion mandrel 2 (combined with Figure 2 ) when the outer periphery is formed, the bushing 1 has a small width gap 1.3 in the circumferential direction; there is an overlap at the slot position in the free state. The inner wall of the bushing body 1.1 is coated with a solid dry film lubricant to reduce the tension required during the extrusion installation of the cold extrusion joint.
[0023] Extrusion installation process Figure 2As shown, the lubricated bushing body 1.1 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the extrusion mandrel 2, and can fit tightly with the mandrel 2. The bushing 1 has a small width gap 1.3 in the axial direction, and can be placed in the cold extrusion joint 3 with the extrusion mandrel 2. When the bushing body 1.1 and the mandrel 2 are placed in the cold extrusion joint 3, use the installation tool to install it along the Figure 2 The taper mandrel 2 is pulled horizontally in the direction of the arrow shown, so that the bushing body 1.1 expands radially and the inner wall of the cold extrusion joint 3 is squeezed, so that the cold extrusion joint 3 is plastically deformed at the inward protrusion 3.1 corresponding to the structural frame plate 4, and the gap 5 between the cold extrusion joint 3 and the structural frame plate 4 is closed, and the two are tightly combined together (see Figure 3 ). After the bushing body 1.1 is extruded and installed, a small ridge will be formed at the gap 1.3 of the bushing body 1.1 corresponding to the original protrusion 3.1 of the cold extruded joint 3. The bushing can be applied to a variety of cold extruded joint materials, such as aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, low carbon steel and high strength steel, composite materials, etc.
