Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0023] See also Figure 1-4 , the utility model provides an embodiment: a micro-diameter expansion forming device for extra thick-walled hot-rolled seamless steel pipe, comprising a bottom box 1, with side boxes 2 symmetrically fixedly installed on one side of the front end and the rear end of the bottom box 1, and the side boxes 2 and the bottom box 1 are set as an integrated structure, and the bottom box 1 and the front end side box 2 are both provided with brackets 5, and the bracket 5 is used to place the extra thick-walled hot-rolled seamless steel pipe, the bracket 5 includes two placing blocks 502, and the placing blocks 502 are provided above the table 501, and an arc-shaped groove 1 is provided on the upper end surface of the placing block 502, and the positioning plate 503 is fixedly installed on one side above the table 501, and a connecting plate 6 is installed between the two brackets 5, and the connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected to the table 501 of the two brackets 5, so that the two brackets 5 can move synchronously.
[0024] During use, by setting up two synchronously movable brackets 5, the next seamless steel pipe to be processed can be placed on the other bracket 5 during the micro-expansion processing of the previous extra-thick-walled hot-rolled seamless steel pipe. After the processing of the previous seamless steel pipe is completed, by driving the movement of the two brackets 5, the next seamless steel pipe can be directly moved to the processing area for micro-expansion processing, and at the same time, the previous seamless steel pipe can be unloaded and the subsequent seamless steel pipe can be loaded, so there is no need to interrupt the entire processing process, which improves the processing efficiency of batch processing of seamless steel pipes, reduces waiting time, and makes the overall production process smoother and more efficient.
[0025] Furthermore, the interior of the bottom box 1 is provided with an inner cavity 2 102, the front end and the rear end of the inner cavity 2 102 respectively extend into the interiors of the two side boxes 2, and a ball screw 15 is provided inside the inner cavity 2 102 of the bottom box 1. Both ends of the ball screw 15 extend into the inner cavity 2 102 of the side box 2 and are rotatably connected to the side box 2. A drive motor for the ball screw 15 is provided behind the side box 2 at the rear end, and a sliding block 16 is slidably installed on the outer side of the ball screw 15. A transmission plate 17 is fixedly installed above the sliding block 16. There are two sliding blocks 16, and the transmission plates 17 above the two sliding blocks 16 are respectively connected to the two brackets 5. The table 501 is fixedly connected, and a guide strip 13 is fixedly installed on the top of the bottom box 1. The guide strip 13 slides through the table 501, and a long groove matching the guide strip 13 is provided under the table 501, so that the table 501 can slide along the direction of the guide strip 13. Through the cooperation of the ball screw 15 and the sliding block 16, the accurate and smooth movement of the bracket 5 is achieved, which not only improves the stability of the seamless steel pipe during the processing, but also ensures the accuracy of the processing. At the same time, the setting of the guide strip 13 and the long groove further enhances the guiding performance of the bracket movement, making the entire processing process more reliable and stable.
[0026] Furthermore, a fixed vertical plate 11 is fixedly installed on one side above the bottom box 1, a fixed top plate 12 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the fixed vertical plate 11, a pressure plate 7 is provided below the fixed top plate 12, and pressure blocks 8 are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides below the pressure plate 7. An arc-shaped groove 2 is provided on the lower end surface of the pressure block 8. The position of the pressure block 8 corresponds to the position of the placement block 502. A hydraulic cylinder 9 is fixedly installed above the fixed top plate 12. The hydraulic cylinder 9 is externally connected to a hydraulic pump oil equipment. The piston rod end of the hydraulic cylinder 9 slides through the fixed top plate 12 and is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 7, so that the telescopic movement of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 9 can drive the lifting and lowering movement of the fixed top plate 12, which is convenient for driving the pressure block 8 to move downward to assist in fixing the position of the seamless steel pipe.
[0027] Furthermore, guide columns 10 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the hydraulic cylinder 9. The lower ends of the guide columns 10 slide through the fixed top plate 12 and are fixedly connected to the pressure plate 7. The setting of the guide columns 10 enhances the stability of the hydraulic cylinder 9 drive and effectively prevents the pressure plate 7 from shifting or tilting during the lifting process, thereby ensuring the fixing effect and processing accuracy of the seamless steel pipe.
[0028] Furthermore, a fixed plate 3 is provided on the other side above the bottom box 1, and a pipe expansion die 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed plate 3. An inner cavity 101 is provided inside the bottom box 1, and the lower end of the fixed plate 3 extends into the inner cavity 101. A hydraulic cylinder 2 14 is fixedly installed inside the inner cavity 101 of the bottom box 1. The hydraulic cylinder 2 14 is externally connected to a hydraulic pump oil equipment, and the piston rod end of the hydraulic cylinder 2 14 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 3, so that the fixed plate 3 can be driven to move horizontally by driving the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 2 14 to move telescopically, which is beneficial to the micro-expansion operation of the seamless steel pipe.
[0029] Working principle: When in use, two synchronously movable brackets 5 are set up, and each bracket 5 is equipped with a placement block 502 and a positioning plate 503 for placing seamless steel pipes. During the processing, when the current seamless steel pipe is undergoing a micro-expansion operation at the pipe expansion die, the next seamless steel pipe to be processed can be placed on another idle bracket 5. By driving the ball screw 15 and the sliding block 16 thereon, the two brackets 5 can move smoothly along the guide strip 13, which is conducive to the continuous processing of seamless steel pipes. At the same time, when the seamless steel pipe is undergoing micro-expansion, the hydraulic cylinder 19 pressure plate 7 drives the pressure block 8 to move downward, and the seamless steel pipe placed on the placement block 502 is assisted in fixing the position to ensure stability during the processing.
