Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of straight seam welded pipe production equipment, and particularly relates to a straightening mechanism for small-diameter steel pipes in a straight seam welded pipe production line. Background Art

[0002] Straight seam welded pipes are pipes made by rolling and welding hot-rolled or cold-rolled steel plates or steel strips on welding equipment. During the production process of straight seam welded pipes, a straightening process is also required, and this process is carried out by using a straightening machine.

[0003] A Chinese patent application (or patent) with the publication number CN219581521U discloses a steel pipe straightening machine, which includes a straightening machine main body provided with a straightening mechanism. A feeding mechanism for assisting the feeding of steel pipe materials is arranged on one side of the straightening machine main body. The top end of one side of the straightening machine main body is fixedly connected with a control panel. The electromagnetic heating component is fixedly connected to the top of the straightening machine main body near the input end of the steel pipe material, and the electromagnetic heating component is electrically connected with the control panel. A detection mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the electromagnetic heating component, and the detection mechanism is fixedly connected with the straightening machine main body. Through the arranged cleaning mechanism, the steel pipe material and the steel brush can be driven to rotate in different directions respectively under the drive of the motor. In this way, during the feeding process of the steel pipe, its surface can contact the surface of the steel brush to the greatest extent, improving the rust removal quality. And under the action of the fan, the rust chips can be sent to the inner side of the chip guide groove to realize collection.

[0004] In the above-mentioned steel pipe straightening machine, a feeding port is arranged on the left side of the straightening machine main body, and the steel pipe is inserted into the inside of the straightening machine main body in an inserted manner. The inner wall of the feeding port of the straightening machine main body is smooth and does not have any structure for assisting the entry of the steel pipe. Therefore, the steel pipe will directly contact the inner wall of the notch, and then during the process of pushing the steel pipe into the straightening machine main body, the mutual contact and rubbing of metal parts will not only cause scratches on the outer wall of the steel pipe, but also produce extremely harsh noises. In addition, the electromagnetic heating component is fixedly connected to the top of the straightening machine main body near the input end of the steel pipe material, that is, the position of the electromagnetic heating component is not adjustable. When the bent part of the steel pipe is inside the straightening machine main body, if it is necessary to heat the bent part, it is not applicable, or only when the steel pipe is delivered into the bending machine main body and the delivery work is stopped can this part be heated. And this kind of work efficiency will cause the steel pipe to need to be manually supported for a long time, thereby causing a great burden on the worker's body. For this reason, we provide a straightening mechanism for small-diameter steel pipes in a straight seam welded pipe production line to solve the problems that appear above.

Specific embodiments

[0029] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model. Specific examples

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-5, the utility model is a straight seam welded pipe production line small-diameter steel pipe straightening mechanism, including a machine body 1, and auxiliary rollers 6 embedded on both sides of the machine body 1. At the same time, a support ring 7 for supporting the pipe body 4 is also arranged inside the machine body 1. Meanwhile, a driving assembly 9 for driving the pipe body 4 to rotate is installed in the middle of the rear side wall of the machine body 1.

[0031] Specifically, side grooves 102 are opened at both left and right ends of the machine body 1. A cover plate 2 is covered on the front side wall of the machine body 1, and a controller 3 is embedded on the outer wall of the cover plate 2. At the same time, auxiliary rollers 6 are embedded at the four corners of the inner side wall of the side groove 102. The machine body 1 contacts the outer wall of the pipe body 4 through the auxiliary rollers 6. At the same time, a support ring 7 for supporting the pipe body 4 is installed at the center inside the machine body 1. The support ring 7 contacts the outer wall of the pipe body 4 through the balls on its inner wall. At the same time, a driving assembly 9 is also installed on the rear side wall of the machine body 1 corresponding to the support ring 7. The driving assembly 9 includes a driving motor 902 and a driving roller 901 installed on its shaft end.

[0032] Furthermore, the machine body 1 of the steel pipe straightening machine also includes a straightening mechanism for straightening the steel pipe and a power mechanism for driving the straight seam welded pipe to shuttle inside it. And the above-mentioned straightening mechanism and power mechanism are both prior arts, so they will not be elaborated here.

[0033] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: Insert a small-diameter straight seam welded pipe through the side groove 102 on the right side of the machine body 1. At this time, the pipe body 4 of the small-diameter straight seam welded pipe will first contact the auxiliary roller 6 on the inner wall of the side groove 102. Then insert the pipe body 4 of the small-diameter straight seam welded pipe again until the pipe body 4 of the small-diameter straight seam welded pipe passes through the side groove 102 at the other end of the machine body 1. At the same time, the middle outer wall of the pipe body 4 is also clamped in the circular groove in the support ring 7. And because the support ring 7 is embedded with balls on its inner wall, the friction between the two can be greatly reduced. When inserting the pipe body 4, the driving motor 902 in the driving assembly 9 can drive the driving roller 901 to rotate, and the driving roller 901 contacts the outer wall of the pipe body 4. Therefore, the driving assembly 9 can drive the pipe body 4 to shuttle in the side groove 102 of the machine body 1. Specific embodiment

[0034] Please refer to Figure 6 , on the basis of Specific Embodiment 1 and Specific Embodiment 2, a sliding assembly 5 and a detection assembly 8 are also provided. The sliding assembly 5 can drive the lifting ring 501a to slide on the outer wall of the pipe body 4 through the pneumatic rod 502, so as to heat the outer wall of the pipe body 4. By using the rotation amount detector 803 in the detection assembly 8, it can detect whether the pipe body 4 is bent as the sliding assembly 5 slides. The two cooperate with each other to heat the bent position.

[0035] Specifically, the body 1 is slidably connected to the slider 501 in the sliding assembly 5 through the chute 101 at its top. The sliding assembly 5 includes the slider 501 and a pneumatic rod 502 for driving the slider 501 to slide.

A connecting rod 802 penetrates through the top of the elastic member 801 in the detection assembly 8, and a rotational quantity detector 803 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 802.

[0036] Furthermore, one end of the pneumatic rod 502 is connected to the slider 501, and the other end of the pneumatic rod 502 is connected to the top plate 101a or the partition block 103. The elastic member 801 is composed of a hollow column 801a, a spring 801b, a cylinder 801c, and a connecting piece 801d. Among them, the top side wall of the hollow column 801a is connected to the cylinder 801c through the spring 801b, and a connecting piece 801d is adhered to the outer wall of the top of the cylinder 801c.

[0037] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: The pneumatic rod 502 can drive the slider 501 to slide in the chute 101. When it slides, the lifting ring 501a at the bottom of the slider 501 moves on the outer wall of the pipe body 4. When it moves, the electric heating plate 503 on its inner wall can heat the pipe body 4. At the same time, the elastic member 801 in the detection assembly 8 on the bottom of the lifting ring 501a can drive the rotational quantity detector 803 to contact the outer wall of the pipe body 4, so as to detect whether the pipe body 4 is bent, and then the two cooperate with each other to heat the bent position.
