Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile muffler production, in particular to a flanging inner support device for automobile muffler production. Background Art
[0002] A car muffler is a device installed in a vehicle's exhaust system, primarily designed to reduce noise generated by the engine's exhaust. It achieves this through a series of structural designs and acoustic principles. A key process in muffler production is flanging. Flanging is the process of shaping the edge of the muffler barrel to create a defined, folded shape. This process is typically used to connect other components, such as exhaust pipes or mounting brackets. Internal support devices provide uniform support from within the barrel, effectively resisting the external forces applied by the flanging die and ensuring the barrel maintains its original shape and dimensional accuracy during flanging.
[0003] In the prior art, some of the internal supports are driven by rotating screws or other driving methods to push the wedge blocks to move radially. Multiple wedge blocks are evenly distributed inside the silencer and are initially in a contracted state to facilitate the insertion of the silencer. During the flanging operation, the screw is rotated to move the wedge blocks outward, and the inclined surface of the wedge blocks is used to contact the inner wall of the silencer. As the wedge blocks move, a uniform supporting force is generated on the inner wall of the silencer. Although the wedge block internal support device is designed with a certain adjustment function, this process of replacing wedge blocks of different sizes to adapt to mufflers of different specifications is relatively cumbersome and requires professional tools and certain operating skills. This will increase the difficulty and time of replacement, thereby reducing production efficiency. Therefore, in response to the above shortcomings, a flanging internal support device for automobile muffler production is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0026] The inner rotation of the connecting block 2 6 is connected with the connecting rod 2 7. Through this rotating connection, the connecting rod 2 7 can rotate freely in the connecting block 2 6, thereby transmitting the power of the electric push rod 2 to the connecting plate 5. The outer sides of the far sides of the multiple connecting rods 2 7 are respectively rotatably connected to the inner top ends of the near sides of the multiple connecting plates 5. The left and right sides of the connecting plate 5 are fixedly connected with connecting plates 8. This sliding connection method allows the sliding rod 9 to slide smoothly in the connecting plate 8 to ensure that the inner support block 10 will not get stuck during the movement. The inner sliding connection of the connecting plate 8 has two sliding rods 9. This sliding connection method allows the sliding rod 9 to slide smoothly in the connecting plate 8 to ensure that the inner support block 10 will not get stuck during the movement. The far sides of the multiple sliding rods 9 are fixedly connected with three inner support blocks 10. The material of the inner support block 10 is rubber pads. The inner support block 10 of this rubber material can avoid damage to the inner wall of the muffler when it contacts it. The outer sleeve of the sliding rod 9 is provided with a telescopic component that provides elasticity.
[0027] The telescopic assembly includes a telescopic spring 11, which is sleeved on the outside of the sliding rod 9. One end of the telescopic spring 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner support block 10, and the other end of the telescopic spring 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 8. One side of the sliding rod 9 is fixedly connected to a baffle 12, and one side of the baffle 12 is in contact with one side of the connecting plate 8. The bottom end of the assembly plate 1 is fixedly connected to a working plate 13, which further enhances the stability of the entire device and provides a reliable foundation for the installation and operation of the device.
[0028] Reference Figures 4 to 6 , the four corners of the assembly plate 1 and the working plate 13 are provided with assembly holes 14, which provide a positioning reference for the installation of the device. The internal sliding connection of the assembly hole 14 is connected to the card rod 15 to realize the connection between the device and the external workbench. The external sliding connection of the card rod 15 is connected to the inside of the assembly plate 1. The internal movability of the card rod 15 is connected to the fixed rod 16. This movable connection method enables the fixed rod 16 to be flexibly operated in the card rod 15, which is convenient for the installation and disassembly of the device. The external fixed connection of the fixed rod 16 is connected to the limit plate 17, and the external movability of the limit plate 17 is connected to the inside of the card rod 15.

This contact method ensures that the baffle 21 can effectively lock the device on the workbench to prevent the device from being displaced during operation.
[0029] Working Principle: When performing the muffler flange internal support operation, the electric push rod 2 is activated. The extension and retraction of the electric push rod 2 drives the movement of the external connecting block 2 6 on its driving end, thereby moving the connecting rod 2 7. Because the outer ends of the distal ends of the connecting rod 2 7 are respectively rotationally connected to the inner ends of the adjacent top ends of multiple connecting plates 5, and the outer distal ends of multiple connecting rods 1 4 are simultaneously rotationally connected to the three connecting plates 5, and connecting rod 1 4 is rotationally connected to the connecting block 1 3 fixed to the outer bottom end of the electric push rod 2, when the electric push rod 2 is extended or retracted, the linkage between connecting rod 1 4 and connecting rod 2 7 drives the movement of the connecting plates 5. The connecting plates 8 fixed to the left and right sides of the connecting plates 5 move with the connecting plates 5, and the sliding rods 9 slidably connected to the connecting plates 8 also move accordingly. The inner support block 10 fixedly connected to the far side of the sliding rod 9 moves outward or inward under the drive of the sliding rod 9. With the assistance of the elastic force of the telescopic spring 11, the inner support block 10 can better fit the inner wall of the muffler and perform an internal support operation on the muffler. The telescopic spring 11 can make the inner support block 10 support the inner wall of the muffler more evenly.
[0030] When the device needs to be installed, first, assembly holes 14 are opened on the workbench at the four corners of the assembly plate 1 and the work plate 13. The clamping rod 15 is placed into the assembly hole 14. At this time, the clamping rod 15 slides inside the assembly hole 14 and the assembly plate 1. Then press the clamping rod 15 slightly and twist the twisting block 20. The twisting block 20 drives the fixed rod 16 to rotate. When the fixed rod 16 rotates, the baffle rod 21 fixedly connected to its external bottom end also rotates, so that the position of the baffle rod 21 and the assembly hole 14 are staggered. Under the elastic force of the strong spring 18, the limit plate 17 on the fixed rod 16 will be displaced, so that the baffle rod 21 is tightly clamped in the assembly hole 14, realizing the rapid installation of the device on the workbench.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
