Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of round tube processing, in particular to a round tube processing and flattening device. Background Art

[0002] The flat circular tube can increase the contact area between it and the electric heating tube.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a circular tube processing and flattening device includes a base 1, a base 2, a mounting plate 3, a mounting frame 4, a pressure plate 5, a hydraulic cylinder 6 and a unloading mechanism. The base 2 is connected to the base 2 on the top left side by bolts, the mounting plate 3 is connected to the top of the base 2 by bolts, the mounting frame 4 is connected to the top of the mounting plate 3, the pressure plate 5 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 4, and the hydraulic cylinder 6 is installed on both the front and rear sides of the upper part of the mounting frame 4 by bolts. The telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 6 is connected to the top of the pressure plate 5, and the unloading mechanism is used to unload the flattened circular tube.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the unloading mechanism includes a connecting plate 7, a rotating shaft 8, a unloading plate 9 and a driving assembly. The front and rear sides of the right side of the mounting plate 3 are connected to the connecting plates 7 by bolts. The two connecting plates 7 are connected to the rotating shaft 8 that rotates together. The unloading plate 9 is connected to the rotating shaft 8. The unloading plate 9 slides through the top of the mounting plate 3. The driving assembly is used to drive the unloading plate 9 to rotate upward to unload the flattened round tubes.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the drive assembly includes a cylinder 10, a sliding shaft 11 and a circular plate 12. The cylinder 10 is installed on the middle right side of the base 2 by bolts. The upper end of the telescopic rod of the cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to the sliding shaft 11. The middle of the rotating shaft 8 is connected to the circular plate 12, and the sliding shaft 11 is located inside the circular plate 12.

[0027] The staff puts the circular tube on the mounting plate 3, and then controls the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 6 to extend, driving the pressure plate 5 to move downward, and the pressure plate 5 moves downward to contact the circular tube and flatten the circular tube. After the flattening is completed, the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 6 is controlled to shorten, driving the pressure plate 5 to move upward, and then controls the telescopic rod of the cylinder 10 to extend, driving the sliding shaft 11 to move upward, the sliding shaft 11 drives the circular plate 12 to rotate upward, and the circular plate 12 drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 8 drives the unloading plate 9 to rotate upward, and the unloading plate 9 lifts the flattened circular tube, and the flattened circular tube slides to the right along the unloading plate 9 to automatically unload, reducing manual intervention, alleviating the burden on staff, and improving work efficiency. After the unloading is completed, the telescopic rod of the control cylinder 10 is shortened, driving the sliding shaft 11 to move downward, and the sliding shaft 11 drives the circular plate 12 to rotate downward, thereby driving the unloading plate 9 to rotate downward, and resetting the unloading plate 9.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a support seat 13 and a guide plate 14. The support seat 13 is connected to the right side of the top of the base frame 1 by bolts, and the guide plate 14 is connected to the top of the support seat 13 by bolts. The left side of the guide plate 14 is connected to the right side of the mounting plate 3.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a vertical plate 15, a visual sensor 16 and a controller 17. The vertical plates 15 are connected to the front and rear sides of the upper part of the support seat 13 by bolts. The visual sensor 16 is installed between the two vertical plates 15 by bolts. The controller 17 is connected to the upper front side of the base 2, and the visual sensor 16 and the controller 17 are electrically connected.

[0030] The flattened circular tube slides to the right along the unloading plate 9 to the guide plate 14, which is convenient for the staff to take it. The flattened circular tube slides along the guide plate 14 to the bottom of the visual sensor 16. The visual sensor 16 photographs the flattened circular tube and detects the size of the flattened circular tube. The visual sensor 16 transmits the data to the controller 17. The size of the flattened circular tube can be obtained through the controller 17 to avoid errors in the size of the flattened circular tube.

[0031] like Figure 4-Figure 6As shown, it also includes a slide rail 18, a slide plate 19, a bidirectional screw rod 20, a limit frame 21 and a spring 22. The front and rear sides of the bottom of the mounting plate 3 are connected to the slide rail 18 by bolts. Two slide plates 19 are slidably connected to the two slide rails 18. The middle of the bottom of the mounting plate 3 is rotatably connected to the bidirectional screw rod 20. The two slide plates 19 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw rod 20. The threads on the two slide plates 19 are in opposite directions, so that the bidirectional screw rod 20 can drive the two slide plates 19 to move in opposite directions. The slide plates 19 are slidably connected to the limit frames 21, and the limit frames 21 slide through the mounting plate 3. The front and rear parts of the limit frames 21 are both sleeved with springs 22, and the two ends of the spring 22 are respectively connected to the slide plate 19 and the limit frame 21.

[0032] like Figure 7 As shown, it also includes a limit block 23. The front and rear sides of the top of the mounting plate 3 are connected to the limit block 23 by bolts, and the front and rear sides of the bottom of the pressure plate 5 are provided with a receiving groove 24. When the pressure plate 5 moves downward, the receiving groove 24 can accommodate the limit block 23 to avoid collision between the pressure plate 5 and the limit block 23.

[0033] The staff places the circular tube between the two limit frames 21 and then rotates the bidirectional screw rod 20. The bidirectional screw rod 20 drives the two slides 19 to move in the direction of approaching each other, thereby driving the two limit frames 21 to move in the direction of approaching each other. The limit frame 21 can center and limit the circular tube, and the limit block 23 can also limit the circular tube to prevent the position of the circular tube from tilting or offsetting, thereby ensuring the quality of the final product. Then the bidirectional screw rod 20 is rotated in the opposite direction. The bidirectional screw rod 20 drives the two slides 19 to move in the direction of moving away from each other, thereby driving the two limit frames 21 to move in the direction of moving away from each other, so that the limit frames 21 and the circular tube are out of contact, ensuring that the circular tube has enough space to be flattened. When the pressing plate 5 moves downward to flatten the circular tube, the pressing plate 5 will contact the limit frame 21 and push the limit frame 21 to move downward. The spring 22 will stretch to prevent the pressing plate 5 and the limit frame 21 from colliding.

Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
