[0027] like Figure 1-9 As shown, a condenser titanium tube sheath expander includes a connector 3, one end of which is detachably connected to a handle 1, a hammer 2 is slidably sleeved on the handle 1, a plurality of elastic arms 8 arranged in a ring are installed at the other end of the connector 3, the elastic arms 8 are connected to the connector 3 at one end close to the connector 3 through an arc-shaped boss 9 protruding outwards, and a barbed hook 7 is installed at the end of the elastic arm 8 away from the connector 3.
[0028] The end of the connector 3 away from the handle 1 is threadedly connected with a clamping nut 4, and the clamping nut 4 is installed with a bell mouth 4-1 at the end close to the arc-shaped boss 9 to facilitate squeezing the arc-shaped boss 9 and realize the change of the inner diameter size formed by the elastic arm 8.
[0029] The handle 1 is provided with a retaining ring 1 - 1 at one end away from the connecting head 3 , and the retaining ring 1 - 1 is limitedly matched with the impact hammer 2 .
[0030] The connector 3 is provided with a stud 3 - 1 at one end close to the handle 1 , and the stud 3 - 1 is threadedly connected to a reserved threaded hole on the handle 1 .
[0031] A polygonal anti-rotation portion 3-2, such as a hexagonal structure or a pentagonal structure, is installed at the connection position between the stud 3-1 and the connecting head 3.
[0032] A guide platform 6 is integrally formed on the outer side of the elastic arm 8 to play a role of guiding support.
[0033] Specifically, the elastic arm 8 is made of spring steel.
[0034] The action process of the utility model is as follows:
[0035] The first step is to put the impact hammer sleeve 2 on the handle 1, clamp the outer wall of the anti-rotation part 3-2 with a wrench or other tool to prevent the connector 3 from rotating, and connect the handle 1 and the connector 3 together;
[0036] The second step is to confirm that the loose nut 4 is in a loose position, that is, the bell mouth 4-1 and the arc-shaped boss 9 are in a loose contact state;
[0037] The third step is to insert the hook 7 into the sheath 5, and the outer diameter of the hook 7 is reduced under the pressure of the inner wall of the sheath 5 (such as Figure 3 As shown), until it enters the sheath 5, the hook 7 steadily moves inward along the sheath 5 to the outside of the sleeve end (as shown Figure 4 At this time, the hook 7 fits with the inner wall of the titanium tube 11 in the tube sheet 10 under the elastic action of the elastic arm 8, and the left side wall of the hook 7 contacts the end face of the sheath 5 (as shown in FIG. Figure 5 shown);
[0038] In the fourth step, the handle 1 is held by hand, and the hammer 2 is repeatedly slid and impacted. Under the guidance and support of the guide platform 6, the hook 7 drives the sheath 5 to move outward until it is completely disengaged (such as Figure 6 shown);
[0039] The fifth step is to clamp the outer wall of the anti-rotation part 3-2 with a wrench or other tool to prevent the connector 3 from rotating, and rotate and tighten the loose nut 4, that is, the bell mouth 4-1 and the arc-shaped boss 9 are in a state of extrusion contact, so that the inner diameter formed between the elastic arms 8 shrinks, and then the hook 7 shrinks, so that the hook 7 can be withdrawn from the sheath 5 (such as Figure 7 shown);
[0040] Step 6: loosen the tension nut 4, and the hook 7 automatically rebounds under the elastic action of the elastic arm 8. Repeat the above steps to disassemble the next sheath 5.
[0041] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred methods of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
