[0005] A large number of elbows are gathered at the top heat exchange position of the tower-type solar thermal power station absorber. Since the elbows need to be connected to a main pipe, it is necessary to consider the need for the elbows to give way to each other, as well as the flow resistance and flow direction of the fluid in the elbow cavity. Therefore, the elbows need to be designed into a predetermined shape to meet the above requirements.

[0006] This patent aims to provide a combined die to achieve accurate calibration of the bent tube shape. Utility Model Content

[0036] In order to better explain the present invention and facilitate understanding, the following Figure 1-6 , the utility model is described in detail through specific implementation methods. Among them, the directional nouns such as "upper" and "lower" mentioned in this article are Figure 5 The orientation is used as a reference.

[0037] Embodiment 1:

[0038] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 An embodiment of the utility model provides a bent pipe testing device for a heat absorber, including a substrate 1 and a mold unit, the mold unit includes a plurality of molds 2, the substrate 1 includes a working surface A, and the molds 2 can be detachably connected to the working surface A; the mold 2 includes a main body 21 and a positioning groove 22 opened on the main body 21 and open on one side of the top, all the positioning grooves 22 in one mold unit are combined into a test area; when the shape of the bent pipe 100 matches the shape of the test area, the bent pipe 100 can be loaded into the test area; when the shape of the bent pipe 100 does not match the shape of the test area, the bent pipe 100 cannot be loaded into the test area.

[0039] In this embodiment, the mold 2 is detachably connected to the working surface A of the substrate 1. Through different layouts and combinations of different molds 2, different forms of test areas can be formed. When the form of the test area matches the form of the corresponding elbow 100, the elbow 100 can be loaded into the test area, which means that the form of the elbow 100 meets the requirements. If the form of the test area does not match the form of the corresponding elbow 100, the elbow 100 cannot be loaded into the test area, which means that the form of the elbow 100 does not meet the requirements, and the elbow 100 needs to be reshaped and tested again until the form of the elbow 100 meets the requirements.

[0040] Since a combined mold 2 is used, it can match the specific requirements of the testing process of different bent pipes 100 to a great extent, for example, it can match the actual requirements of different bending positions, different bending directions and different bending angles of different bent pipes 100, greatly improving the testing efficiency of the bent pipe 100, and also improving the flexibility of using the test mold 2.

[0041] Specifically, the mold 2 and the base plate 1 can both be made of metal, and the bent pipe 100 is a hollow circular pipe, which is connected to the main pipe 200 when in use.

[0042] The positioning groove 22 can be set as a semi-cylindrical groove, and is made by removing material from the mold 2.

[0043] Embodiment 2:

[0044] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4In addition to all the technical solutions of the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present utility model further have the following technical solutions:

[0045] The mold 2 further comprises a pressing block 23 detachably connected to the top of the body 21 . A surface of the pressing block 23 facing the positioning groove 22 is provided with a pressing groove B corresponding to the position of the positioning groove 22 . The pressing groove B can load the bent pipe 100 .

[0046] In this embodiment, the pressing block 23 can squeeze the elbow 100 to a certain extent. When the shape of the corresponding elbow 100 is not much different from the shape of the corresponding test area, the elbow 100 can be deformed by the loading of the pressing block 23, and then enter the positioning area, and the shape of the elbow 100 is corrected by the positioning area. However, if the shape deviation of the elbow 100 is large from the design shape, this method cannot be used to correct the elbow 100.

[0047] Specifically, the pressing block 23 can be detachably connected to the main body 21 by a connection method including bolt connection, and the pressing block 23 also has a pressing groove B matching the shape of the elbow 100 to better achieve loading of the elbow 100.

[0048] The pressing block 23 may also be hinged to the top of the main body 21 at one side, and connected to the main body 21 at the other side by connecting members such as bolts or buckles, so as to realize the rapid opening and closing of the pressing block 23 .

[0051] The edge of the positioning groove 22 has an introduction slope C extending toward the bottom of the positioning groove 22 .

[0052] In this embodiment, the guiding slope can guide the bent pipe 100 into the positioning groove 22, thereby improving the convenience of the testing process of the bent pipe 100.

[0053] At the same time, when this embodiment is combined with embodiment 2, the introduction slope C can guide the direction of the bent pipe 100 when the pressing block 23 squeezes the bent pipe 100, thereby facilitating the shape correction process of the bent pipe 100.

[0054] Specifically, the pressing groove B is also configured as a cylindrical groove matching the shape of the elbow 100 .

[0055] Embodiment 4:

[0056] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4In addition to all the technical solutions of any of the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present utility model further have the following technical solutions:

[0058] In this embodiment, by arranging multiple mold units on a substrate 1, the utilization rate of the mounting surface on the substrate 1 can be improved. By flexibly adjusting the arrangement of the mold units, multiple mold units can be used simultaneously without interference, thereby improving the testing efficiency of the bent pipe 100.

[0059] Specifically, the mold units on the same substrate 1 can be configured to match a type of bent pipe 100 , thereby improving the consistency of the detection process and further improving the detection efficiency of the bent pipe 100 .

[0060] At the same time, a type of groove D matches a type of body 21, so that it can provide assembly guidance for the assembly process of the device and improve assembly convenience.

[0066] In this embodiment, a vertically arranged curved pipe 100 test area is formed by vertically stacking the substrates 1, thereby further increasing the maximum number of curved pipes 100 that can be tested by the device at a single time, thereby improving the testing efficiency of the curved pipes 100.

[0067] Since operation space is reserved between adjacent substrates 1 , no negative impact is exerted on the test process.

[0068] Specifically, the height of the operating space can be set to 0.5m-0.8m.
