DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the implementation of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the implementation of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the implementation of the utility model. Obviously, the described implementation is a part of the implementation of the utility model, not all of the implementations. Based on the implementation of the utility model, all other implementations obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] See also Figures 1 to 6 The utility model provides a technical solution: a metal pipe bending device, including a workbench 1, two limiting wheels 2 are arranged on one side of the upper surface of the workbench 1, and a bending wheel 3 is arranged between the two limiting wheels 2 on the other side of the upper surface of the workbench 1. The bending wheel 3 is rotatably installed between the inner walls of the mounting frame 4 on both sides, and the surface of one side of the mounting frame 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 5, and the hydraulic cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to the workbench 1 through a connecting piece. The bending wheel 3 includes a disc 301, and a plurality of second slide grooves 302 evenly distributed in an annular shape are opened on the upper surface of the disc 301, and a sliding rod 303 is slidably connected in each second slide groove 302, and each sliding rod 303 is connected to an independent driving mechanism, and one end of each sliding rod 303 is connected to an adjustable abutment mechanism.

[0024] See also Figure 1 , an annular groove 201 is provided on the outer wall of each limiting wheel 2.

[0025] The annular groove 201 can be provided to simply limit the position of the metal tube, thereby preventing the metal tube from bursting under pressure, thereby improving stability and safety during use.

[0026] Please refer to the figure Figure 2Each limiting wheel 2 is rotatably connected to the corresponding first slider 202 through a rotating shaft. The two first sliders 202 are slidably installed in the first slide groove 203 opened on the surface of the workbench 1. A threaded hole is opened on one side surface of each first slider 202, and is threadedly connected to the two ends of the bidirectional screw 204 through the threaded hole. The two ends of the bidirectional screw 204 are rotatably installed on the surfaces of the opposite sides of the two mounting plates 205 respectively. One end of the bidirectional screw 204 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 206 through a through hole set on the surface of the corresponding side mounting plate 205. The first motor 206 is fixedly installed on the surface of one end of the workbench 1.

[0027] Start the first motor 206 to drive the bidirectional screw 204 to rotate. Since the two first sliders 202 are connected to the two ends of the bidirectional screw 204 through threaded holes and are slidably connected to the first slide groove 203, the two first sliders 202 can move synchronously away from or towards each other as the rotation direction of the bidirectional screw 204 changes, thereby driving the two limiting wheels 2 to adjust the spacing synchronously, and at the same time ensuring that the bending wheel 3 is always in the center position. By adjusting the spacing between the two limiting wheels 2, the limitations during use can be reduced to avoid the inability to effectively limit the metal pipe when it is too long or too short.

[0028] See also Figures 3 to 6 Each driving mechanism includes a second slider 304, which is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the corresponding sliding rod 303. Each second slider 304 is slidably installed in a third slide groove 305 opened on the inner wall of the bottom of the corresponding second slide groove 302, and extends to the bottom of the disc 301 through the third slide groove 305. A threaded hole is opened on one side surface of the second slider 304 located below the disc 301, and a driving screw 306 is threadedly connected in the threaded hole. One end of the driving screw 306 is fixedly connected to one end of the output shaft of the corresponding second motor 307, and the second motor 307 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the disc 301.

[0029] When the second motor 307 drives the driving screw 306 to rotate, the second slider 304 can be displaced in the third slide groove 305, thereby driving the sliding rod 303 to be synchronously displaced in the corresponding second slide groove 302, so that each sliding rod 303 can be independently extended or contracted, and the distance between the end of the sliding rod 303 and the disc 301 can be adjusted by adjusting the distance between the abutment mechanism and the disc 301. When there are different requirements for the curvature of the metal pipe, part of the sliding rod 303 can be controlled to extend and contact the metal pipe, and the angle and shape of the bending part can be controlled according to the number of contact points, thereby reducing limitations in use and improving work efficiency when bending metal pipes.

[0030] Furthermore, each adjustable abutment mechanism includes a connecting block 308 fixedly mounted on one end of the corresponding sliding rod 303, a fourth sliding groove 309 is provided on one side surface of the connecting block 308, two third sliding blocks 310 are slidably mounted in the fourth sliding groove 309, and arc-shaped limit members 311 are fixedly connected to one side surface of the two third sliding blocks 310, the two arc-shaped limit members 311 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two third sliding blocks 310 are connected to the synchronous adjustment mechanism.

[0031] The synchronous adjustment mechanism can drive the two third sliders 310 to move in opposite directions, thereby adjusting the distance between the two arc-shaped limiters 311, and can perform abutment and limitation on metal pipes with different diameters within a certain range, further reducing limitations in use, and avoiding the inability to perform stable abutment and limitation on the metal pipe, resulting in the danger of misalignment and collapse of the metal pipe when the bending wheel 3 squeezes the metal pipe as a whole for bending.

[0032] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided on one side surface of each arc-shaped limiting member 311 .

[0033] The rubber pad can be provided to increase the friction between the arc-shaped stopper 311 and the outer wall of the metal tube, thereby further improving the stability during abutment.

[0034] Furthermore, the synchronous adjustment mechanism includes two relatively arranged tooth plates 312, and the two tooth plates 312 are respectively fixedly connected to the surface of the corresponding third slider 310 away from the arc limiter 311. A first gear 313 is arranged between the two tooth plates 312 and is meshed with the first gear 313 at the same time. The first gear 313 is located in a groove opened at one end of the connecting rod 303 and the connecting block 308. The first gear 313 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the mounting shaft 314, and the other end of the mounting shaft 314 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the groove. A second gear 315 is also fixedly sleeved on the mounting shaft 314, and the second gear 315 is meshed with a third gear 316 on one side. The third gear 316 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the output shaft of the third motor 317, and the third motor 317 is fixedly connected to the surface of one side of the sliding rod 303.

[0035] The third motor 317 is started to drive the third gear 316 to rotate, and the mounting shaft 314 is driven to rotate through the meshing connection between the third gear 316 and the second gear 315. When the mounting shaft 314 rotates, the first gear 313 rotates synchronously, thereby driving the tooth plates 312 on both sides to move in the opposite direction, so that the two third sliders 310 slide synchronously in the fourth slide groove 309 to adjust the distance between the two arc-shaped limit members 311.

[0036] Working principle: the metal pipe is pressed against one side of the two limiting wheels 2 and placed in the annular groove 201 for simple limiting. The hydraulic cylinder 5 is started to drive the bending wheel 3 to move toward the metal pipe. The number and length of the extended sliding rods 303 are selected according to the needs of the bending angle and shape. The metal pipe is supported by the limiting wheels 2 and the bending wheels 3 from both sides and then bent between the limiting wheels 2. The bending angle and shape are affected by the number of adjustable abutment mechanisms in contact, thereby improving the diversity of the bending work. By setting a bending wheel 3 with adjustable diameter and shape, the limitations on the metal pipe bending work are reduced, and the stability and safety during use are relatively improved.

[0037] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the first motor 206, the second motor 307, the third motor 317 and the hydraulic cylinder 5 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device, and the specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.

[0038] The power supply and principle of the first motor 206 , the second motor 307 , the third motor 317 and the hydraulic cylinder 5 are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail herein.

[0039] The above description is only the preferred implementation of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
