Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of engine oil cooler processing, in particular to a brazing clamping device for a double engine oil cooler. Background Art

[0002] During the transfer process of a diesel generator set, the lubricating oil operates in the high-temperature zone of the diesel engine, absorbing some of the heat and cooling the piston. However, as the lubricating oil temperature rises, its viscosity decreases, which reduces its lubricating properties and makes it susceptible to oxidation and deterioration. Therefore, the lubricating oil must be continuously cooled to ensure the normal operation of the diesel engine. Generally, oil coolers are divided into shell-and-tube oil coolers and plate-fin oil coolers. Their cleaning methods and heat dissipation efficiency differ, so shell-and-tube and plate-fin oil coolers are used in different scenarios. To meet better sealing requirements and prevent oil leakage or mixing of coolant and lubricating oil, coolers are generally assembled by brazing.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN202607036U discloses an oil cooler brazing clamping device, including a fixed plate, a base plate, a left clamping mechanism, a right clamping mechanism, a lower brazing plate for placing the oil cooler, and an upper brazing plate placed on the oil cooler. The base plate is fixed to the fixed plate, the lower brazing plate is placed on the base plate, and the left clamping mechanism and the right clamping mechanism are clamped on the lower brazing plate and the upper brazing plate clamping the oil cooler. It also includes a positioning mechanism, a pressing mechanism, and a left and right mold mechanisms that match the shape of the end of the oil cooler. The positioning mechanism, the pressing mechanism, the left and right mold mechanisms are all connected to the fixed plate, the positioning mechanism is located below the fixed plate, the pressing mechanism is located above the fixed plate, and the left and right mold mechanisms are located on both sides of the pressing mechanism.

[0004] However, this utility model can only be used to perform clamping work during brazing of a specific plate-fin type oil cooler. Figure 1 、 2 As shown, there is now a dual oil cooler, which is a double-structured shell-and-tube oil cooler. The dual oil cooler includes two cooler tubes. Each cooler tube is provided with a plurality of parallel tube cores for passing the oil. The two ends of the tube core are connected by a tube sheet. The tube sheet is a certain distance away from the two ends of the cooler tube. The two ends of the cooler tube are covered with a circular cover plate with a first circular through hole in the center. The two cooler tubes each have a first circular through hole and are connected by a connecting tube. The oil circulates between the tube core, the first circular through hole and the connecting tube. The cooler tube is filled with a cooling medium. The oil is cooled twice by the two cooler tubes, which can enhance the cooling effect of the oil. The steps for brazing the dual oil cooler are:

[0005] Step 1: Assemble the tube core and the tube sheets at both ends, and then use several welding points to fix the tube core and the tube sheets at both ends together.

[0006] Step 2: Insert the tube core and tube sheet into the cooler tube, and braze the gaps between the tube core and tube sheet, and between the tube sheet and cooler tube together.

[0007] Step 3: Braze the circular cover plates on both sides of the cooler tube, and braze the two cooler tubes in sequence according to the previous steps.

[0008] Step 4: Take a first circular through hole on each of the two cooler tubes, and weld the two ends of the connecting tube to the two first circular through holes respectively.

[0009] However, all of these steps, except for the first one, present a problem: During brazing, the components of the duplex oil cooler tend to move, resulting in large tolerances and affecting the brazing quality and the seal of the duplex oil cooler. In the second step, when welding the gaps between the tube core and the tube sheet, and between the tube sheet and the cooler tube, the cooler tube must be positioned horizontally. This causes the brazing material to slide vertically along the tube sheet, making welding more difficult, reducing the quality, and wasting the brazing material. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] See also Figure 3-6 A brazing clamping device for a double oil cooler is shown, and Figure 1-2 The oil dual cooler shown. A brazing clamping device for a oil dual cooler is used to clamp the oil dual cooler 100. The oil dual cooler 100 includes two parallel cooler tubes 110. The two ends of the cooler tubes 110 are respectively covered with a circular cover plate 120 with a first circular through hole 121 in the center. One first circular through hole 121 is taken from each of the two cooler tubes 110 and connected through a connecting tube 130. The device includes a connecting tube clamping assembly 600 and a pair of cooler tube support assemblies 300, a cooler tube side wall clamping assembly 400 and a circular cover plate pressing assembly 500. It also includes a mounting assembly for mounting the above-mentioned components. Frame 200; when the oil duplex cooler 100 is clamped, the cooler tube 110 is vertically arranged on the cooler tube support assembly 300, and the cooler tube support assembly 300 includes a support plate 310 for supporting the bottom of the cooler tube 110, and an arc-shaped support plate 312 is vertically arranged on the support plate 310, which is matched with the shape of the side wall of the cooler tube 110 and is used to support the side wall of the cooler tube 110; the cooler tube side wall clamping assembly 400 is used to clamp the side wall of the cooler tube 110; the circular cover plate pressing assembly 500 is used to support the circular cover plate 120 from above; the connecting pipe clamping assembly 600 is used to clamp the connecting pipe 130.

[0033] Specifically, when the tube core 111 and the tube sheet 112 need to be welded in the cooler tube 110, the vertically arranged cooler tube 110 can prevent the solder from slipping, so that the solder is evenly filled in the gaps between the tube core 111 and the tube sheet 112, and between the cooler tube 110 and the tube sheet 112.

[0034] More specifically, the arc-shaped abutment plate 312 is provided to position the cooler tube 110 so that the various components on the oil dual cooler 100 can accurately enter the clamping range of the cooler tube support assembly 300, the cooler tube side wall clamping assembly 400, the circular cover plate pressing assembly 500 and the connecting pipe clamping assembly 600.

[0035] A set of cooler tube support assembly 300 , cooler tube side wall clamping assembly 400 and circular cover plate pressing assembly 500 is used to clamp a cooler tube 110 and its corresponding circular cover plate 120 .

[0036] A second circular through hole 311 is formed on the support plate 310 and is concentric with the arc-shaped abutment plate 312. The radius of the second circular through hole 311 is smaller than the radius of the arc-shaped abutment plate 312. A cylinder 320 is vertically arranged below the second circular through hole 311. A circular tube sheet support plate 330 is installed on the output end of the cylinder 320. The tube sheet support plate 330 is parallel to the support plate 310, and the projection of the tube sheet support plate 330 on the support plate 310 is surrounded by the second circular through hole 311.

[0037] Specifically, the cylinder 320 is used to drive the tube sheet support plate 330 into the cooler tube 110. When the assembled tube core 111 and the tube sheets 112 at both ends, which have been fixed by welds, are inserted into the cooler tube 110, the tube sheet support plate 330 can support the bottom tube sheet 112 and tube core 111 to prevent the tube core 111 and tube sheet 112 from sliding further downward, thereby fixing the position of the tube core 111 and tube sheet 112 in the cooler tube 110, allowing the brazing operation to proceed normally and improving the accuracy of the brazing operation.

[0038] The tube sheet support plate 330 is provided with weight-reducing holes 331 .

[0039] Specifically, the weight-reducing holes 331 can reduce the counterweight of the tube plate support plate 330 and reduce the load of the cylinder 320 .

[0040] The cooler tube side wall clamping assembly 400 includes a fixed half ring 410 fixedly mounted on the frame 200, and the fixed half ring 410 matches the side wall shape of the cooler tube 110; the cooler tube side wall clamping assembly 400 also includes a rotating half ring 420 hinged on the frame 200, and the rotating half ring 420 matches the side wall shape of the cooler tube 110; when the cooler tube 110 is placed on the support plate 310, the fixed half ring 410 fits the side wall of the cooler tube 110, and the rotating half ring 420 can be rotated to a position that fits the side wall of the cooler tube 110.

[0041] Specifically, by disposing the fixed half ring 410 and the rotating half ring 420 , the side wall of the cooler tube 110 can be clamped to prevent the cooler tube 110 from falling over.

[0042] A fixing pin 430 is provided on the rotating half ring 420 . When the rotating half ring 420 rotates to a position where it fits against the side wall of the cooler tube 110 , the rotating half ring 420 can be fixed to the rack 200 through the fixing pin 430 .

[0043] The circular cover pressing assembly 500 includes a rotating pressing cylinder 510 fixedly mounted on the frame 200, and a pressing plate 520 is mounted on the output end of the rotating pressing cylinder 510. When the circular cover 120 is installed on the cooler tube 110 but the connecting tube 130 is not installed, the rotating pressing cylinder 510 can drive the pressing plate 520 to move to a position against the circular cover 120.

[0044] Specifically, by rotating the downward pressure cylinder 510 to drive the downward pressure plate 520 to press against the circular cover plate 120, the circular cover plate 120 can be pressed against the cooler tube 110 from above to fix the circular cover plate 120. When brazing the circular cover plate 120, the circular cover plate 120 can be prevented from shaking, thereby reducing the difficulty of brazing.

[0045] The arrangement of the rotating pressing cylinder 510 allows the lower pressing plate 520 to be moved to a position not above the cooler tube 110 when the lower pressing plate 520 is not in operation, thereby preventing the cooler tube 110 from being blocked from being taken away.

[0046] A circular protrusion 521 is provided below the lower pressing plate 520 . When the rotating pressing cylinder 510 drives the lower pressing plate 520 to move to a position against the circular cover plate 120 , the circular protrusion 521 is inserted into the first circular through hole 121 .

[0047] Specifically, the circular cover plate 120 can be further fixed by snapping the circular protrusion 521 into the first circular through hole 121. Here, the circular protrusion 521 acts as a limiter, so that the position of the first circular through hole 121 is limited by the circular protrusion 521, so that the circular cover plate 120 will not deviate from the cooler tube 110, ensuring that the circular cover plate 120 is fixed during the brazing operation.

[0048] The connecting pipe clamping assembly 600 includes a pressing clamp 610 . When the connecting pipe 130 is installed on the cooler pipe 110 , the pressing clamp 610 can be driven to clamp the connecting pipe 130 between the output end of the pressing clamp 610 and the rack 200 .

[0049] The working and use steps of the present invention are as follows:

[0050] Step 1: Place a cooler tube 110 vertically on a support plate 310, with the arc-shaped support plate 312 against the side wall of the cooler tube 110, rotate the rotating half ring 420 so that the rotating half ring 420 and the fixed half ring 410 clamp the cooler tube 110, and fix the rotating half ring 420 with the fixing pin 430.

[0051] Step 2: Insert the assembled tube core 111 and tube sheet 112 fixed by welding points into the cooler tube 110. The cylinder 320 drives the tube sheet support plate 330 to press against the tube sheet 112 below. The staff uses brazing technology to braze and seal the gap between the upper tube core 111 and tube sheet 112, and the gap between the tube sheet 112 and the cooler tube 110.

[0052] Step 3: Cover the cooler tube 110 with a circular cover plate 120, rotate the downward pressure cylinder 510 to drive the rotating half ring 420 to press the circular cover plate 120, and then the staff uses brazing technology to braze the circular cover plate 120 on the cooler tube 110, and then rotate the downward pressure cylinder 510 to drive the lower pressure plate 520 to retract.

[0053] Step 4: Unplug the fixing pin 430, and the cylinder 320 drives the tube sheet support plate 330 to retract; flip the cooler tube 110 obtained in the first, second and third steps, and change the vertical surface of the cooler tube 110 to face upward; the cylinder 320 is no longer working, and the first, second and third steps are repeated for all components except the cylinder 320, so that the gaps between the tube core 111, the tube sheet 112 and the cooler tube 110 are brazed and sealed, and the circular cover plates 120 are brazed on both sides of the cooler tube 110.

[0054] Step 5: Place the other cooler tube 110 vertically on the other support plate 310 and repeat steps 1, 2, 3, and 4 to braze the other cooler tube 110. Align the ends of the connecting tube 130 with the two upward-facing first circular through-holes 121. Use the clamp 610 to clamp the connecting tube 130 between the output end of the clamp 610 and the frame 200. The brazing of the connecting tube 130 to the two first circular through-holes 121 is complete.

[0055] Among them, in the fourth step, since one end of the tube core 111, the tube sheet 112 and the cooler tube 110 has been welded, the positions of the tube core 111, the tube sheet 112 and the cooler tube 110 are relatively fixed. When the cooler tube 110 is turned over, the tube core 111 and the tube sheet 112 will not be shifted in position, and subsequent brazing operations can be carried out normally.

[0056] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
