Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of chemical machinery and equipment, and more particularly to a heat exchanger tube sheet injection molding nail pulling machine. Background Art
[0002] A heat exchanger is an energy-saving device that transfers heat between two or more fluids at different temperatures. It transfers heat from a higher-temperature fluid to a lower-temperature fluid, bringing the fluid temperature to the specified process temperature to meet process requirements. It is also a key device for improving energy efficiency. The heat exchanger industry is used in nearly 30 industries, including HVAC, pressure vessels, reclaimed water treatment equipment, chemicals, and petroleum.
[0003] For enameled tube heat exchangers or silicon carbide heat exchangers, tube sheets need to be installed at both ends of the tube body and several small holes are opened on the tube sheets. Seals are installed in the small holes to connect with the enameled tubes or silicon carbide tubes. Because tantalum alloy tube sheets have good corrosion resistance but are expensive, PTFE tube sheets are easily deformed under pressure and have poor sealing. As a result, the patent number 202020604052.0 was developed, and the patent name is reinforced composite tube sheet. The main structure is steel inside and PTFE injection molding outside, which can meet both strength and corrosion requirements.
[0004] During the production process of the above-mentioned tube sheet, a core nail needs to be placed in the mounting hole to prevent the injection-molded PTFE from closing the entire mounting hole. The core nail is then removed and the mounting hole is processed.
[0005] Due to the small market, the current existing technology still uses manual labor to remove the core nail. Since the PTFE shrinks and holds the core nail tightly, it is difficult to remove it. The core nail is shaken by hard hammering, which causes damage to the PTFE coating and the core nail. Utility Model Content

[0021] As Figure 1 shown, a heat exchanger tube sheet injection-molding nail extractor of the present utility model includes: a base 1, a processing table 2, a first moving component 3, a second moving component 4, and an extraction component 5. The processing table 2 is fixedly arranged on the top of the base 1. The first moving component 3 is installed on the processing table 2. The second moving component 4 is installed on the first moving component 3. The extraction component 5 is installed on the second moving component 4. The first moving component 3 drives the extraction component 5 to move along the X-axis on the processing table 2, and the second moving component 4 drives the extraction component 5 to move along the Y-axis on the processing table 2. A relatively flat processing surface is provided for the tube sheet by the processing table 2. The first moving component 3 and the second moving component 4 drive the extraction component 5 to move to any position on the processing table 2, so as to extract the core nails.
[0022] During the processing, the processing table 2 needs to ensure flatness and roughness to prevent damage to the tube sheet coated with tetrafluoroethylene. Further, one or several rows of mounting holes are provided on the processing table 2 to align with the flange holes at the edge of the tube sheet, so as to facilitate the PLC programming to set the moving positions of the first moving component 3 and the second moving component 4.
[0023] The first moving component 3 includes: a first linear guide 31, a first slider 32, a first rack 33, a first gear 34, a first motor 35 and a first mounting seat 36. There are two first linear guides 31, which are installed in parallel on both sides of the processing table 2. The first slider 32 is sleeved on the first linear guide 31. The first rack 33 is installed on the processing table 2 and is arranged parallel to the first linear guide 31.

The output end of the first motor 35 is connected to the first gear 34, and the first gear 34 meshes with the first rack 33. By driving the first gear 34 to mesh with the first rack 33 by the first motor 35, the first mounting seat 36 reciprocates on the first linear guide 31, and then the extraction component 5 moves along the X-axis on the processing table 2. For stable movement, two sets of the first rack 33, the first motor 35 and the first gear 34 can be provided, but the starting positions of the first gear 34 and the first rack 33 need to be matched well.
[0024] The second moving component 4 includes: a cross beam 41, a second linear guide 42, a second slider 43, a second rack 44, a second gear 45, a second motor 46 and a second mounting seat 47. There are two second linear guides 42, which are installed in parallel on the top of the cross beam 41. The second slider 43 is sleeved on the second linear guide 42. The second rack 44 is installed on the top of the cross beam 41 and is arranged parallel to the second linear guide 42. The second mounting seat 47 is fixedly connected to the second slider 43. The second motor 46 is fixed on the second mounting seat 47. The output end of the second motor 46 is connected to the second gear 45, and the second gear 45 meshes with the second rack 44. The end of the cross beam 41 is fixedly connected to the top of the first mounting seat 36. By driving the second gear 45 to mesh with the second rack 44 by the second motor 46, the second mounting seat 47 reciprocates on the second linear guide 42, and then the extraction component 5 moves along the Y-axis on the processing table 2. In the actual production process, in order to make the structure more compact, the second rack 44 is arranged in the middle of the two second linear guides 42.
[0025] As Figure 2 shown, the extraction component 5 includes: a lower pressing part 51 and an upper pulling part 5,2. One side of the second mounting seat 47 is fixedly provided with the lower pressing part 51, and the upper pulling part 52 is installed on the lower pressing part 51. By means of the lower pressing part 51, the upper pulling part 52 moves up and down on the processing table 2 to approach the tube sheet to a suitable height.
[0026] The pressing portion 51 includes a driving cylinder 511, a third linear rail 512, a third slider 513, a sliding plate 514, and a clamping block 515. The third slider 513 is vertically mounted on the second mounting base 47, the third linear rail 512 is vertically mounted on the sliding plate 514, the third slider 513 is sleeved on the third linear rail 512, and the clamping block 515 is mounted on the sliding plate 514. The driving cylinder 511 drives the sliding plate 514 to move up and down, and the clamping block 515 is used to mount the electric cylinder 523.
[0027] The pull-up unit 52 comprises a bracket 521, a third motor 522, an electric cylinder 523, a pressure block 524, and a clamping jaw 525. The bracket 521 is mounted above the clamping block 515, the third motor 522 is fixed to the bracket 521, and the electric cylinder 523 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 515. The pressure block 524 is mounted at the bottom of the electric cylinder 523, and the output end of the electric cylinder 523 extends out of the pressure block 524. The clamping jaw 525 is fixed to the output end of the electric cylinder 523. The pressure block 524 presses against the upper surface of the tube sheet, and the clamping jaw 525 secures the core nail in the mounting hole. Simultaneously, the third motor 522 drives the electric cylinder 523 to lift the output end, thereby extracting the core nail from the mounting hole.
[0028] The pressing block 524 is an annular structure and is installed at the bottom of the electric cylinder 523. The output end of the electric cylinder 523 passes through the middle of the pressing block 524. During the implementation process, it is necessary to ensure that the outer diameter of the pressing block 524 is larger than the outer diameter of the mounting hole. At the same time, the hole diameter in the center of the pressing block 524 must be larger than the outer diameter of the core nail so that the core nail can move upward.
[0029] The clamping jaws 525 are pneumatic clamping jaws 525. The pneumatic clamping jaws 525 are utilized to facilitate fixing the top of the core nail.
[0030] The processing table 2 is provided with a feed opening 6, and a channel 61 is provided at the bottom of the feed opening 6 to be communicated with the material receiving frame. The feed opening 6 and the channel 61 are convenient for collecting the extracted core nails for reuse.
[0031] like Figure 3As shown in the figure, during use, the tube sheet is hoisted and placed at a predetermined position on the processing table 2. The first moving component 3 and the second moving component 4 drive the extraction component 5 to move to the upper part of the tube sheet according to a preset program and move to above the core pin according to the positioning coordinates. The pressing part 51 drives the clamping jaw 525 to move down to the outer wall of the core pin and the pressing block 524 abuts against the outer wall of the tube sheet. The third motor 522 drives the electric oil cylinder 523 to move to drive the clamping jaw 525 to move down, and then the clamping jaw 525 clamps the outer wall of the core pin. Next, the third motor 522 drives the electric oil cylinder 523 to move, and on the premise that the pressing block 524 does not move, the clamping jaw 525 is pulled up. Then the pressing part 51 drives the clamping jaw 525 and the core pin clamped by the clamping jaw 525 to move up. Finally, the first moving component 3 and the second moving component 4 drive the clamping jaw 525 and the core pin to move above the blanking port 6. Subsequently, the clamping jaw 525 releases the core pin, and the core pin is collected from the blanking port 6 into the receiving frame for reuse. The steps of extracting the core pins are repeated until all the core pins are removed, and then the tube sheet is hoisted and removed.
[0032] The above are only some embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, other deformations and improvements can be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
