The rebound after bending also easily causes the bending radius and bending angle of the pipe to not meet the requirements. Therefore, a thin-walled pipe bending forming device that is easy to operate should be provided. Utility Model Content

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the utility model includes a bending mechanism and a limiting mechanism placed on the platform 1.

[0025] The bending mechanism includes a fixed pulley 4 arranged on the platform 1, a central axis 6 vertically inserted into the fixed pulley 4 and extending out of the top of the fixed pulley 4, a transverse plate 2 sleeved on the central axis 6, and a follower pulley 5 arranged at the bottom of the transverse plate 2, the transverse plate 2 can rotate around the central axis 6, and a vertical axis 7 for fixing the follower pulley 5 is arranged in the transverse plate 2, the fixed pulley 4 and the follower pulley 5 are both waist-type pulleys, and a through hole 8 for one end of a thin-walled tube 13 to pass through is formed between the fixed pulley 4 and the follower pulley 5, and the inner diameter of the through hole 8 is adapted to the outer diameter of the thin-walled tube 13.

[0026] The limiting mechanism includes a pad 12 arranged on the platform 1 and an arc plate 10 arranged on the pad 12, the other end of the thin-walled tube 13 passes through between the arc plate 10 and the pad 12, and the height of the upper surface of the pad 12 is consistent with the height of the lower end of the inner surface of the through hole 8.

[0027] In actual use, by setting the fixed pulley 4 and the follower pulley 5, it is convenient to form a through hole 8 adapted to the thin-walled tube 13, and by setting the central axis 6 and the vertical axis 7, it is convenient to make the horizontal plate 2 drive the vertical axis 7 to rotate around the central axis 6, that is, the follower pulley 5 rotates around the fixed pulley 4, so that the pressure of the follower pulley 5 on the thin-walled tube 13 is utilized to make the thin-walled tube 13 bend; at the same time, the contact surface area between the fixed pulley 4 and the follower pulley 5 and the thin-walled tube 13 is large and smooth, so the force is balanced, thereby avoiding wrinkles on the thin-walled tube 13.

[0028] In this embodiment, a handle 3 is provided at one end of the transverse plate 2 away from the fixed pulley 4, and the angle between the handle 3 and the horizontal line is an acute angle.

[0029] During actual use, the handle 3 is wrapped with a soft pad to protect the technician's hand safety. The platform is in a horizontal state. By setting the angle between the handle 3 and the horizontal line to an acute angle, the gap between the handle 3 and the platform is increased, which is conducive to the technician having enough space to hold the handle 3 for operation.

[0030] In this embodiment, ear plates 11 are provided on both sides of the arc-shaped plate 10 , and bolts that are anchored into the pad 12 and the platform 1 are passed through the ear plates 11 .

[0031] In actual use, by setting the arc plate 10, it is convenient to limit the other end of the thin-walled tube 13 to prevent the thin-walled tube 13 from shifting during the bending process and affecting the bending curvature; by setting the pad 12, it is convenient to raise the thin-walled tube 13 so that the height of the thin-walled tube 13 inside and outside the through hole 8 is consistent, thereby improving the bending accuracy.
