Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of heading pipe bending machines, in particular to an automatic feeding and heading pipe bending integrated machine. Background Art

[0002] In modern industrial manufacturing, the processing and forming of metal pipes are essential steps. Heading and bending metal pipes, as crucial processing steps, are widely used in a variety of fields, including but not limited to construction, automotive, machinery manufacturing, aerospace, power generation, chemicals, and medical devices. Heading and bending metal pipes, as needed, can improve the efficiency of metal pipe connections. Therefore, to meet the demands of high-efficiency, high-precision, and highly automated production, automatic loading, heading, and bending machines have emerged.

[0003] The heading processing of metal pipes is mainly used to make the end connection structure of pipe fittings or to facilitate the subsequent connection requirements of close welding processing, thereby improving the subsequent processing efficiency. The pipe bending processing changes the straight shape of the metal pipe to form a bend of a certain angle or shape to meet specific installation or use requirements.

[0004] However, there are still some defects and shortcomings in the actual application process. First, the existing heading and bending of metal pipes usually require two processes through a heading machine and a bending machine respectively. Therefore, the metal pipe needs to be processed twice during the forming process, resulting in low processing and production efficiency of the metal pipe. Secondly, after completing one process of heading or bending, it is necessary to transport and move it, and to re-perform tedious loading and positioning, which affects production efficiency and processing accuracy. In addition, repeated positioning processing can easily affect the adaptability and efficiency of processing, resulting in certain limitations in the processing and production of metal pipes. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above defects and provide an automatic feeding, heading and bending integrated machine to solve the technical problem in the above background technology that it is difficult to head and bend metal pipes, thereby affecting the production efficiency of metal pipes.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is achieved by the following methods:

[0008] Further described in the above description, the heading mechanism is composed of a heading cylinder and a heading mounting seat. The heading cylinder is installed on the workbench, and the telescopic end of the heading cylinder extends toward the clamping mechanism and is connected to the heading mounting seat. The heading mold is detachably installed on the side of the heading mounting seat close to the clamping mechanism, and a pressing protrusion for pressing the end of the pipe is formed on the heading mold.

[0009] Optionally, the heading die can be disassembled and replaced according to the size of the pipe to improve the applicability of the equipment, and the end of the pipe can be extruded and formed by the pressing protrusion on the heading die under the drive of the heading cylinder.

[0010] The above description further states that the rotating part is composed of a rotating shaft, a gear, a rack and a driving cylinder. The rotating shaft is installed on the workbench through a mounting bracket, and one end of the rotating shaft passes through the gear and is connected to the pipe bending mold. The gear is meshed with the rack, and one end of the rack is connected to the telescopic shaft of the driving cylinder.

[0011] The telescopic shaft of the driving cylinder can drive the rack to rotate the gear.

[0012] The above description further states that the pipe bending mechanism includes a connecting block, a pipe bending cylinder, and a pipe bending pressure block. The connecting block is connected to one end of a connecting shaft, the pipe bending cylinder is mounted on the connecting block, and the telescopic end of the pipe bending cylinder is connected to the pipe bending pressure block.

[0013] Further, the clamping mechanism comprises a clamping cylinder, a clamping block, and a support plate, the support plate being mounted on a workbench, the clamping cylinder being mounted on the support plate, and the telescopic end of the clamping cylinder being connected to the clamping block, the clamping mechanisms being relatively arranged.

[0017] A connecting rod structure is formed by the blanking rod, the receiving rod and the swing rod. The swing rod is inclined to connect the blanking rod and the receiving rod so that the end of the blanking rod is exposed at the end of the receiving rod. When the telescopic rod of the blanking cylinder is extended, the blanking rod moves closer to the blanking cylinder, and the receiving rod is moved away from the blanking cylinder under the action of the swing rod, thereby supporting the blanked pipe.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the pipe is stably clamped by the clamping mechanism, and the head mechanism extends to the end portion of the clamping mechanism and the connecting shell is detachable to the head mold, so that the head mechanism performs pressure forming and head processing on the pipe clamped by the clamping mechanism through the head mold, thereby improving processing accuracy and processing efficiency.

[0038] Heading processing: After connecting the corresponding heading die 4 and the pipe bending die 7, the heading mechanism performs pressure-forming and heading processing on one end of the clamped pipe through the pressure-forming protrusion of the heading die 4, thereby improving the processing accuracy and processing efficiency;

[0039] During pipe bending, when the pipe bending block 15 connected to the pipe bending cylinder 14 extends and abuts against the pipe bending die 7, the driving cylinder 64 drives the rack 63 to move, and the rotation of the gear 62 can drive the rotating shaft 61 to rotate, thereby driving the pipe bending die 7 and the linkage plate to rotate under the rotation of the rotating shaft 61, so that the pipe bending block 15 and the pipe bending die 7 clamp and bend the pipe, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the pipe bending, and improving the stability and efficiency of the pipe bending. After the processing is completed, the clamping cylinder releases the pipe, and the pipe falls into the discharge chute of the cabinet 1 and enters the next process, thereby realizing the automation of the pipe heading and pipe bending processing process, and improving production efficiency.
