[0002] Pipe bending is a type of pipe that is often used for pipeline laying and maintenance in the fields of oil transportation, gas transportation, liquid infusion, engineering bridge construction, etc. It generally requires the use of a pipe bending machine to bend the straight pipe before it can be processed into shape. The settings of the pipe bending machine can be adjusted according to the required bending radius and bending angle of the pipe to bend pipes of different diameters.

[0003] At present, the existing pipe bending machines generally cut a certain length of pipe and then bend it to form a bent pipe. The pipe cutting step exists before the bending step, so that the pipe bending process can only be frequently loaded and unloaded and clamped, which affects the processing efficiency. In addition, due to the needs of different types of pipes and different usage scenarios, the bending radius parameters of the bent pipes change frequently. Frequent changes in the bending processing parameters require manual replacement of wheel molds of different sizes for processing and forming, which affects the processing efficiency. For this reason, we provide a pipe bending machine that can cut the pipe to a fixed length after bending and has the function of conveniently adjusting the bending radius. Utility Model Content

[0019] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides an embodiment: a fixed-length cutting pipe bending machine, including a pipe bending plate 2, a clamping and feeding device 10 and a frame 13. The specific structure of the clamping and feeding device 10 can be understood by those skilled in the art. It is mainly used to clamp and fix the pipe fittings and realize the purpose of feeding and feeding. The spindle box and three-jaw chuck used in the CNC lathe in the prior art can meet the use. Basically, a pair of slide rails 12 for fixing the clamping and feeding device 10 are installed on the top of the frame 13, and a screw 11 is installed on the frame 13 between the two slide rails 12 through a bearing. One end of the screw 11 is connected to a driving motor, and the bottom of the clamping and feeding device 10 is respectively connected to the slide rail 12 and the screw 11. The bottom of the clamping and feeding device 10 is provided with a threaded hole adapted to the screw 11. When the driving motor rotates forward and reversely, it can drive the clamping and feeding device 10 to move forward and backward along the direction of the screw 11. The clamping of the pipe should be based on the pneumatic clamping jaws installed on the clamping and feeding device 10 for fixing the pipe. The interior of the clamping and feeding device 10 is provided with a rotating motor for driving the pneumatic clamping jaws to rotate, which will not be elaborated here.

[0020] In order to realize the pipe bending effect produced by the rotation of the pipe bending disc 2, the outer side of the pipe bending disc 2 is connected to the outer fixing plate 1, and the outer fixing plate 1 revolves with the rotation of the pipe bending disc 2. When the outer fixing plate 1 presses the pipe fitting to fit the outer side of the pipe bending disc 2, the pipe bending disc 2 rotates to bend the pipe. An opening and closing driving component is provided between the pipe bending disc 2 and the outer fixing plate 1. In this embodiment, the opening and closing driving component can include a pair of driving arms 19 hinged at the upper and lower ends of the pipe bending disc 2, and one end of the two driving arms 19 is movably connected to the outer fixing plate 1. At the side position of the driving arm 19, a hydraulic cylinder 18 is hinged on the bending disk 2 at the other end of the driving arm 19, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 18 is hinged to the driving arm 19. As those skilled in the art can understand, the opening and closing driving assembly can also be directly connected to the external fixed plate 1 through the hydraulic telescopic part arranged perpendicular to the bending disk 2, and its telescopic part can also realize the opening and closing of the external fixed plate 1. The hinged structure of the driving arm 19 provided in the present application can change the direction of the clamping force, reduce the force on the hydraulic cylinder and improve the clamping strength.

[0021] An adjusting slide 6 is extended and arranged on the frame 13 on one side of the pipe bending disk 2, and a servo roller 5 is slidably connected to the adjusting slide 6. The sliding guide of the adjusting slide 6 allows the servo roller 5 to slide along the adjusting slide 6 according to the position that the bending end face of the bent pipe may occupy and then be used for avoidance. A servo motor is installed at the bottom of the servo roller 5, and a telescopic rod 4 for driving the servo roller 5 to translate is installed in parallel on the outer side of the adjusting slide 6. A metal strip 15 is wound on the outer side of the servo roller 5, and the metal strip 15 can be a stainless steel strip. The servo motor is used to control the rotation of the servo roller 5 to adjust the tension of the metal strip 15. The tension control can be achieved by adding a torque sensor based on the output end of the motor. An insert rod 14 is provided at the end of the metal strip 15 away from the servo roller 5, and the pipe bending disk 2 is provided with a slot 16 for connecting the plug rod 14. The bending disk 2 is wound or unwound with the metal strip 15 to adjust the bending radius of the bending disk 2. The thickness of the metal strip 15 should be as thin as possible to avoid excessive change in circumferential thickness after winding, which affects the smoothness of the bending radius of the tube. The change in the bending radius of the tube generated by the winding of the metal strip 15 in the present application can also enable the tube to be better bent and reduce the effect of reducing the wall thickness of the rear section of the tube. The rotation of the bending disk 2 can be driven by a motor and / or a hydraulic drive. Since the bending disk 2 needs to achieve continuous rotation in the same direction, the hydraulic drive of the bending disk 2 can be a hydraulic turntable, and the bending disk 2 should be detachably connected to the main shaft of its rotation drive by plugging, etc., for easy replacement or maintenance.

[0022] A cutting machine 9 is slidably connected to the frame 13 on the side of the bending tube plate 2 close to the clamping feeding device 10, and a linkage component is provided between the cutting machine 9 and the servo roller 5.

In this embodiment, the linkage component can be a slide groove arranged on the top of the frame 13, and a length adjustment plate 8 is connected to the outer side of the cutting machine 9. A connecting plate 7 parallel to and laterally overlapping the length adjustment plate 8 is connected to the outer side of the servo motor. The length adjustment plate 8 is provided with a mounting groove along its length direction, and a fixing bolt is provided between the length adjustment plate 8 and the connecting plate 7.

[0023] Furthermore, based on the movable characteristics of the cutting machine 9 during cutting and the fact that debris will be generated during cutting, as an extension of the present application, a debris collection box 3 is provided at the bottom end of the outer wall of the frame 13 at the cutting machine 9, and a collecting bucket 17 is arranged obliquely on the frame 13 below the cutting machine 9, the collecting bucket 17 is connected to the outer shell of the cutting machine 9, and an opening for the movable use of the collecting bucket 17 is provided on the frame 13. When the cutting machine 9 is reset, the collecting bucket 17 should be kept retracted to one side of the frame 13 to avoid affecting the movement of the clamping and feeding device 10, and extended with the cutting machine 9 during cutting, so that the top end of the collecting bucket 17 covers the screw 11 and the bottom end is located within the opening interval of the collecting box 3.
