Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipe processing, in particular to a pipe traction machine. Background Art

[0002] The pipe production process includes forming, clamping and traction, and cutting. Currently, clamping and traction generally use two methods: crawler clamping or hydraulic reciprocating alternating clamping. Crawler clamping has the advantages of simple structure and large clamping area. It is often used for solid small-sized pipes, but it is not suitable for hollow pipes, especially large-sized and thin products.

[0003] For hollow pipes, a hydraulic reciprocating alternating clamping and traction method is often used. It requires the use of a clamp of corresponding specifications for matching clamping and meeting the traction requirements of stable clamping. However, existing clamps are often made of integral nylon or iron rubber, which cannot withstand large clamping forces during use. Stress concentration is prone to occur during the clamping process, leading to deformation and damage of the pipe. In addition, during the traction process of the pipe, the direction of the pipe extension cannot be well controlled, affecting the production quality of the pipe. Utility Model Content

The lower end of the movable rod extends into the installation groove and is connected to the installation groove for upward and downward sliding.

The second motor is fixedly arranged on the fixed frame. The second motor is correspondingly connected to a pressure roller for transmission, and two adjacent pressure rollers are connected for transmission.

[0012] This technical solution is further optimized. A slide groove is opened on the support frame, and the slide groove is set parallel to the conveying roller. A slider is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed plate. The slider extends into the slide groove and is slidingly connected to it.

[0017] In order to explain the technical content, structural features, achieved objectives and effects of the technical solution in detail, the following is a detailed description in conjunction with specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0018] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pipe traction machine includes a mounting base 14, on which a conveying roller 5 unit and a limiting assembly are provided. A first cylinder 10 and a second cylinder 7 are fixedly provided on the mounting base 14, and the first cylinder 10 drives the conveying roller 5 unit to move up and down relative to the mounting base 14.

[0019] The conveyor roller 5 unit comprises a mounting frame 4 and conveyor rollers 5. A first cylinder 10 drives the mounting frame 4 up and down relative to a mounting base 14. The conveyor rollers 5 are rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 4. The conveyor rollers 5 are equidistantly spaced along the mounting frame 4 in the same direction and positioned on the same horizontal line. A first motor 15 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 4 and is in transmission connection with each conveyor roller 5. Adjacent conveyor rollers 5 are connected via a conveyor belt.

[0020] A pressure roller 3 unit is mounted on the mounting base 14 above the conveyor roller 5. The pressure roller 3 unit comprises a fixed frame 2, a third cylinder 1, a second motor, and the pressure roller 3. The third cylinder 1 is fixedly mounted above the mounting base 14 and drives the fixed frame 2 to move up and down, allowing the pressure roller 3 to be rotatably mounted on the fixed frame 2. The pressure roller 3 is arranged parallel to the conveyor roller 5 and vertically aligned with the conveyor roller 5. A second motor is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 2 and is transmission-connected to one pressure roller 3. Adjacent pressure rollers 3 are also transmission-connected to each other.

[0021] A support frame 6 is mounted on the mounting base 14, below the conveyor roller 5. A slide groove is defined on the support frame 6 and arranged parallel to the conveyor roller 5. A slider 9 is fixedly connected to the underside of the fixed plate 8. The slider 9 extends into the slide groove and slides therein. A ball bearing is movably connected to the underside of the slider 9. The fixed plate 8 is positioned perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor roller 5. A limit assembly is fixed to the fixed plate 8. A second cylinder 7 drives the support frame 6 to move up and down relative to the mounting base 14.

[0022] The limiting assembly is vertically staggered with the conveyor roller 5. The limiting assembly includes a fixed rod 11 and a movable rod 12. The lower end of the fixed rod 11 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 8. A mounting slot is defined on the upper end of the fixed rod 11. The lower end of the movable rod 12 extends into the mounting slot and is connected to the mounting slot for upward and downward sliding movement. The movable rod 12 can move up and down relative to the fixed rod 11. A spring is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable rod 12, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting slot. Two limiting plates 13 are fixedly mounted on the upper end of the movable rod 12, forming an inverted figure eight shape. Ball grooves are evenly disposed on the opposing sides of the two limiting plates 13, and balls are movably mounted in the ball grooves.

[0023] When the present invention is in use, when the pipe extruder extrude the pipe, the position of the fixed plate 8 is adjusted so that the pipe can be located between the two limit plates 13, and then the second cylinder 7 is started, so that the second cylinder 7 drives the support frame 6 to move upward, thereby driving the limit assembly to move upward. As the limit assembly moves upward, the extruded pipe can pass between the two limit plates 13 and contact them. Since the two limit plates 13 are in an inverted eight-shaped shape, as the limit plates 13 continue to move upward after contacting the pipe, the limit assembly adapts to the placement position of the pipe and follows the fixed plate 8 to move in a direction parallel to the conveyor roller 5 until the two limit plates 13 are symmetrical with respect to the pipe. By using the two limit plates 13 arranged in an inverted eight-shaped shape, the pipe can always be extended perpendicularly to the conveyor roller 5 during the process of continuous forward extrusion of the pipe. The first cylinder 10 and the first motor 15 can be started. The first motor 15 drives the transmission roller to rotate, and the first cylinder 10 drives the mounting frame 4 to move in the vertical direction, thereby adjusting the position of the transmission roller 5 in the vertical direction, so that the transmission roller 5 contacts the bottom of the pipe from the pipe extruder.

[0024] At the same time, the third cylinder 1 and the second motor are started. The second motor drives the pressure roller 3 to rotate. The first cylinder 10 drives the fixed frame 2 to drive the pressure roller 3 to move downward until it contacts the top of the pipe. Then the pressure roller 3 and the conveying roller 5 work together to drive the pipe forward. The limiting assembly serves to limit the extension direction of the pipe.

[0025] The present invention provides a limit assembly so that the limit assembly is disposed on the fixed plate 8, and the fixed plate 8 can flexibly move relative to the support frame 6. Furthermore, by providing a fixed rod 11 and a movable rod 12, the two are connected by a spring. Therefore, when the limit plate 13 moves upward to contact the pipe, the limit plate 13 can automatically adjust its position during the upward movement, so that the limit plates 13 are symmetrically arranged relative to the pipe. The two limit plates 13 arranged in an inverted figure eight shape can always extend perpendicularly to the direction of the conveyor roller 5 during the continuous forward extrusion of the pipe. This greatly improves the traction quality and efficiency of the pipe traction, and has excellent practicality and applicability.
