[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application (for the convenience of description and understanding, the following is Figure 2 All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0018] See also Figure 1-3 The present application provides a technical solution: a tractor-mounted cold shrink tube cutting device, comprising a support guide frame 17, a work surface 10 is provided on the upper surface of the support guide frame 17, a pipe conveying group is provided on the work surface 10, and a pipe cutting piece is provided at the end of the pipe conveying group.
[0019] The support guide frame 17 is the main frame of the entire device, ensuring the overall structural stability of the device and reliability during operation. The pipe conveying group is responsible for smoothly and accurately conveying the cold shrink tube from the feed end to the cutting position. The pipe cutting piece is located at the terminal of the pipe conveying group and is responsible for performing the final cutting task.
[0020] The pipe cutting piece includes a support frame, a cutting mounting frame 5, a first cutting group 2 and a second cutting group. The support frame is located at one end of the support guide frame 17, and the cutting mounting frame 5 is arranged on the lower surface of the support frame. The first cutting group 2 is located on the oblique side surface of the cutting mounting frame 5, and the second cutting group is located on the upper surface of the cutting mounting frame 5. The cutting mounting frame 5 is provided with a second cutting groove in a vertical horizontal plane and a second cutting groove arranged obliquely.
[0021] The support frame is the foundation of the entire pipe cutting unit, providing the necessary structural support and stability for the cutting group.
[0022] The cutting mounting frame 5 is directly mounted on the lower surface of the support frame and is the mounting base of the first cutting group 2 and the second cutting group. The second cutting groove of the vertical horizontal plane and the inclined first cutting groove cooperate with the movement trajectory of the cutter 8 to ensure the flatness and accuracy of the incision.
[0023] The first cutting group 2 is located on the oblique side of the cutting mounting frame 5 and is used for the pipe 11 with an oblique port, or cooperates with the second cutting group 2 to cut more complex ports, thereby improving the processing flexibility.
[0024] The second cutting group is located on the upper surface of the cutting mounting frame 5 , and completes the plane vertical cutting of the pipe fitting 11 .
[0025] When the pipe 11 is sent to the cutting position through the pipe conveying group, the cutting cylinder 7 of the second cutting group will be activated, driving the cutter 8 to move down along the preset second cutting groove, thereby cutting the pipe 11. If the cross section of the pipe 11 is an inclined surface, the first cutting group 2 will cut it. If the cutting shape is more precise, the first cutting group 2 and the second cutting group will cooperate with each other to complete the cutting assembly. The whole process is completed through automatic control to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of cutting.
[0026] The cutting mounting frame 5 is provided with a conduit hole, and a pressing group is provided near the pipe conveying group close to the cutting mounting frame 5 .
[0027] The conduit hole provides precise guidance when the pipe 11 enters the cutting area, ensuring that the pipe 11 can move along the correct path to the cutting position. The size and shape of the conduit hole need to match the diameter and geometric characteristics of the pipe 11 to be cut to achieve the best guiding effect.
[0028] The pressing group is near the pipe conveying group close to the cutting mounting frame 5. When the pipe 11 is about to be cut, the pipe 11 is fixed by applying appropriate pressure to prevent it from being deflected due to vibration or external force during the cutting process, thereby ensuring the accuracy and safety of the cutting.
[0029] Furthermore, the support frame includes a cushion block 3 and a support frame plate 4, the cushion block 3 is located at both ends of the upper surface of the support guide frame 17, the support frame plate 4 is located on the upper surface of the cushion block 3, and the cutting mounting frame 5 is installed on the lower surface of the support frame plate 4 through fasteners.
[0030] Furthermore, the second cutting group includes a supporting side plate 6, a cutting cylinder 7 and a cutter 8, wherein the supporting side plate 6 is located on the upper surface of the cutting mounting frame 5, the cutting cylinder 7 is provided on one side of the supporting side plate 6, and the cutter 8 is provided at the telescopic end of the cutting cylinder 7.
[0031] Furthermore, the clamping group includes a vertical support frame 12, an upper support plate 13, a clamping cylinder 14 and a pressure head 15. The vertical support frame 12 is located on the upper surface of the support guide frame 17. The upper end of the vertical support frame 12 is provided with an upper support plate 13. The upper surface of the upper support plate 13 is provided with a clamping cylinder 14. The telescopic end of the clamping cylinder 14 is provided with a pressure head 15.
[0032] The supporting side plate 6 is the structural foundation of the second cutting group, and is mounted on the upper surface of the cutting mounting frame 5 to support and fix other components. The supporting side plate 6 needs to have sufficient strength and stability to withstand the force and vibration generated during the cutting operation, and ensure the accuracy and stability of the entire cutting process.
[0033] The cutting cylinder 7 generates a strong thrust or pull force through the reciprocating motion of the internal piston, which is used to drive the cutter 8 to complete the cutting action. The performance of the cutting cylinder 7 (such as pressure, speed, stroke) directly affects the cutting efficiency and accuracy.
[0034] The cutter 8 is installed at the telescopic end of the cutting cylinder 7 to ensure the smoothness of the cutting surface and the smoothness of the cutting process.
[0035] When the pipe 11 reaches the cutting position and is fixed, the cutting cylinder 7 receives a signal, and its internal piston starts to move, pushing the cutter 8 to move along a predetermined path (such as the second cutting groove) toward the pipe 11. As the cutting cylinder 7 expands and contracts, the cutter 8 applies a cutting force to the pipe 11 until the pipe 11 is completely cut. After the cutting is completed, the cutting cylinder 7 is retracted, and the cutter 8 returns to the initial position to prepare for the next cutting.
[0036] Furthermore, the pipe conveying group includes slide rails 9, a pipe material placement group and a material pushing group. The pipe material placement group is located between the slide rails 9, and the material pushing group is slidably arranged on the slide rails 9.
[0037] The slide rail 9 is the basis of the pipe conveying group, providing a smooth track so that the pushing group can move along a predetermined path. The pipe placement group is located between the slide rails 9 and is used to place and preliminarily fix the pipes 11 to be transported. The pushing group is slidably set on the slide rail 9 to push the pipes 11 placed on the pipe placement group to the cutting position.
[0038] Furthermore, the pipe material placement group includes a base support plate 18, a bracket seat 1, a V-groove seat 19 and a bracket bracket seat 20. The base support plate 18 is placed in the upper end groove of the bracket seat 1, and the upper end of the base support plate 18 is provided with a V-groove seat 19 and a bracket bracket seat 20 for placing the pipe fitting 11.
[0039] The bottom frame support plate 18 is located at the bottom of the entire pipe material placement group and is the load-bearing structure of the entire placement group, providing a stable basic support. The upper end of the bottom frame support plate 18 is designed with a groove for embedding the card frame seat 1 to form a stable connection, thereby ensuring the rigidity and stability of the entire placement group structure.
[0040] The bracket seat 1 is an intermediate structure connecting the base support plate 18, the V-groove seat 19 and the support bracket bracket 20. The V-groove seat 19 can adapt to pipes 11 of different diameters. Through the clamping force on both sides, it ensures that the pipes 11 do not roll or shift during transportation and cutting, thereby improving the cutting accuracy and safety.
[0041] The support bracket 20 and the V-shaped groove seat 19 together constitute the positioning and supporting structure of the pipe 11. The lateral support of the pipe 11 is increased to prevent the pipe 11 from deviating from the predetermined track due to external force during the transportation process, and ensure that the pipe 11 is stably placed in the V-shaped groove seat 19.
[0042] Furthermore, the pusher group includes a baffle plate 21 , a top shaft 22 and a screw mechanism. The screw mechanism is provided with the baffle plate 21 via a connecting member, and the baffle plate 21 is provided with the top shaft 22 .
[0043] The baffle 21 is the front end structure of the pusher group. Driven by the screw mechanism, it directly contacts the pipe 11 and pushes it forward. When the baffle 21 pushes the pipe 11, the top shaft 22 can be inserted into the center hole of the pipe 11 or slide along the outer surface of the pipe 11 to help stabilize the pipe 11 and prevent it from shifting or rolling during transportation, thereby ensuring accurate alignment before cutting.
[0044] When the pipe 11 is placed on the pipe placement group and is ready for delivery, the motor of the screw mechanism starts and the screw rotates accordingly. The nut moves linearly on the screw, driving the baffle 21 and the top shaft 22 to move forward along the slide rail 9. The baffle 21 contacts the pipe 11 and applies thrust, while the top shaft 22 provides support to ensure that the pipe 11 moves stably along the slide rail 9 until it reaches the preset cutting position. When the pipe 11 is in place, the screw mechanism rotates in the opposite direction, causing the baffle 21 and the top shaft 22 to return to the initial position, preparing for the next delivery of the pipe 11.
[0045] Furthermore, a collection box 16 is provided below the cutting group.
[0046] When in use: place the shrink tube to be cut in the V-groove seat 19 and the support bracket seat 20 of the tube material placement group to ensure that the tube 11 is stable and will not roll or deflect. When the tube 11 is ready for transportation, the motor of the screw mechanism starts and the screw rotates accordingly. The nut moves linearly on the screw, driving the baffle 21 and the top shaft 22 to move forward along the slide rail 9. The baffle 21 contacts the tube 11 and applies thrust, while the top shaft 22 provides support to ensure that the tube 11 moves stably along the slide rail 9 until it reaches the preset cutting position. When the tube 11 reaches the cutting position, the clamping group is started, and the pressure head 15 is driven by the clamping cylinder 14 to fix the tube 11 at the predetermined position, and the cutting cylinder 7 of the second cutting group is activated to drive the cutter 8 to cut along the second cutting groove. For the pipe 11 that needs to be beveled, the first cutting group 2 can be used for pretreatment in advance, and the cutting process can be closely monitored to ensure that the incision is smooth and no abnormal situation occurs. After confirming that the pipe 11 is completely cut, the cutting cylinder 7 is retracted, the cutter 8 is reset, the clamping group is released, and the pipe 11 falls into the collection box 16. At the same time, the screw mechanism rotates in the opposite direction to return the baffle 21 and the top shaft 22 to their initial positions, preparing for the next delivery of the pipe 11.
