A plurality of cooling components are swingably arranged between the outer fixed pipe and the inner fixed pipe. The cooling component includes two cold water pipe heads. A water outlet pipe penetrates between the outer fixed pipe and the inner fixed pipe.

Detailed Embodiments

[0031] The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments, but the present utility model is not limited to these embodiments.

[0032] As Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, the utility model provides a pipe sizing device, which includes a cooling assembly. There are at least two groups of cooling assemblies, and the two groups of cooling assemblies are sequentially installed at the discharging end of the extruder die along the advancing direction of the pipe. The cooling assembly includes a fixed pipe 1 and a sizing pipe 2. Among them, the fixed pipe 1 is bent and connected end to end to form a ring, and the sizing pipe 2 is installed on one side of the inner circle of the fixed pipe 1. An annular flow channel 3 with a cross-section of a "U" - shaped structure is formed between the opposite surfaces of the fixed pipe 1 and the sizing pipe 2; water distribution holes 4 are opened on the fixed pipe 1, and the water distribution holes 4 communicate with the annular flow channel 3. A water supply pipe 5 is installed on the outer circumference of the fixed pipe 1, the water outlet of the water supply pipe 5 communicates with the inner wall of the fixed pipe 1, and the water inlet of the water supply pipe 5 is connected with a cooling water supply unit; the sizing pipes 2 of two adjacent groups of cooling assemblies are coaxially installed, so that when the pipe passes through the two sizing pipes 2, a water distribution ring 6 is formed between their opposite surfaces. A plurality of groups of through - holes 7 are evenly opened along the circumferential direction on the inner peripheral side of the sizing pipe 2, and both ends of the plurality of groups of through - holes 7 communicate with the annular flow channel 3 and the water distribution ring 6 respectively; during operation, first, the cooling water supply unit pumps cooling water into the fixed pipe 1. When the cooling water fills the annular flow channel 3 and the cooling water flows out from the uppermost through - hole 7, the pipe is sent into the sizing pipe 2 from the discharging end of the extruder die. The cooling water in the fixed pipe 1 passes through the annular flow channel 3 and is evenly sprayed from the plurality of groups of through - holes 7 into the water distribution ring 6, so as to form an annular water film on the outer circumference of the pipe to uniformly cool the pipe, ensuring that the water flow completely covers the outer circumference of the pipe during the advancing process of the pipe, enabling the pipe to be cooled sufficiently, and improving the appearance quality and production efficiency of the pipe.

[0033] Further, a duct 8 is provided on the sizing pipe 2 close to the extruder die. The air inlet of the duct 8 is connected with a high - pressure blower 18, and the air outlet of the duct 8 communicates with the annular flow channel 3; the duct 8 is on the side of the sizing pipe 2 close to the extruder die, and the through - holes 7 are on the side of the sizing pipe 2 away from the duct 8; when the pipe advances into the sizing pipe 2, the high - pressure blower 18 is started to send air into the duct 8, so that the cooling water in the annular flow channel 3 can be extruded towards the side of the through - holes 7, increasing the water outlet pressure, providing a thrust along the advancing direction of the pipe for the cooling water flowing in multiple cooling assemblies, accelerating the heat exchange efficiency of the water flow. At the same time, when the gas pushes the water flow to sequentially pass through a plurality of through - holes 7, a turbulent flow effect will be caused to the water flow, realizing the effect of uniform temperature cooling of the water flow on the pipe.

[0034] Furthermore, the cooling water supply unit includes a water storage tank 9, a first water pump 10, a float switch 11, a temperature detection sensor 12, a drain pipe 13, a make-up water pipe 15, a second water pump 16 and a controller (using a single-chip microcomputer). The water storage tank 9 is placed below the fixed pipe 1 and is used to collect the cooling water flowing out of the sizing pipe 2. The inlet of the first water pump 10 is connected to the bottom inner wall of the water storage tank 9 through a pipe, and the outlet of the first water pump 10 is connected to the inlet of the water supply pipe 5 through a pipe. The float switch 11 is placed on the preset water level line of the water storage tank 9 and is used to detect the water level height in the water storage tank 9. The temperature detection sensor 12 is placed below the preset water level line of the water storage tank 9 and is used to detect the temperature of the cooling water in the water storage tank 9. The inlet of the drain pipe 13 is connected to the bottom inner wall of the water storage tank 9, the outlet of the drain pipe 13 is connected to the cooling water tank 17, and an electric valve 14 is installed at the inlet of the drain pipe 13. The outlet of the make-up water pipe 15 is connected to the top of the preset water level line of the water storage tank 9, the inlet of the make-up water pipe 15 is connected to the outlet of the second water pump 16, and the outlet of the second water pump 16 is connected to the cooling water tank 17 through a pipe. The controller is connected to the float switch 11, the temperature detection sensor 12, the electric valve 14, the first water pump 10 and the second water pump 16. Specifically, first, according to the water level height detected by the float switch 11 in the water storage tank 9, if it does not reach the preset water level line, the controller controls the second water pump 16 to pump the cooling water in the cooling water tank 17 into the water storage tank through the make-up water pipe 15 until the water level height in the water storage tank 9 reaches the preset water level line. Then, according to the temperature detected by the temperature detection sensor 12 in the water storage tank, if it exceeds the preset threshold value, the controller controls the electric valve 14 to open, and discharges the cooling water in the water storage tank into the cooling water tank 17 through the drain pipe 13 for cooling (condensing agent can be added to the cooling water tank 17 to cool the heat-exchanged cooling water), and at the same time, continues to make up water into the water storage tank through the second water pump 16. When the temperature of the cooling water in the water storage tank drops below the preset threshold value, the first water pump 10 is started to pump the cooling water in the water storage tank into the water supply pipe 5 to cool and size the pipe.

[0035] In the above, a plurality of water distribution holes 4 are circumferentially formed on the fixed pipe 1, and the center lines of the plurality of water distribution holes 4 respectively intersect with the axis of the fixed pipe 1 at a point, so that the cooling water in the fixed pipe 1 is evenly diffused into the annular flow channel 3, ensuring the pressure balance in the annular flow channel 3 and avoiding the formation of a pressure difference on the outer periphery of the pipe during the flow of the cooling water, which affects the appearance quality of the pipe. Specifically, the aperture sizes of the through holes 7 on each sizing pipe 2 are the same, and the aperture of the through hole 7 is 1 - 2 cm, so as to ensure the uniform pressure in the water distribution ring 6.

[0036] In the above, the through hole 7 is an annular through groove, and the center line of the annular through groove coincides with the center line of the fixed pipe 1, which is convenient for forming an annular water curtain in the water distribution ring 6, further ensuring the cooling effect of the water flow on the pipe material, and making the thrust caused by the gas on the water flow more stable, so as to flow along the wavy flow path on the outer periphery of the pipe material.

[0037] The above are only several embodiments of the present invention, and do not impose any form of limitation on the present invention. Although the present invention is disclosed above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention, makes some changes or modifications using the technical content disclosed above, which are equivalent to equivalent implementation cases and all fall within the scope of the technical solution.
