Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fully automatic synchronous transmission pipe cutting machine, belonging to the field of straight pipe cutting technology. Background Technology

[0002] During production and storage, hoses are prone to bending or twisting due to winding, which can affect subsequent installation and fluid transfer performance. Therefore, hoses typically require heat straightening to ensure stability and accuracy in application. Heating the hose before straightening softens it, improving the straightening effect. After straightening, the hose is usually cut to the same length; however, existing cutting methods struggle to accurately measure the hose length, leading to errors in the cut length and requiring rework, resulting in low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fully automatic synchronous transmission pipe cutting machine to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fully automatic synchronous transmission pipe cutting machine, the fully automatic synchronous transmission pipe cutting machine comprising:

[0005] The feeding mechanism is used to convey the pipe body along the first direction;

[0006] A heating mechanism for heating the tube body;

[0007] A straightening mechanism is located downstream of the heating mechanism to straighten the heated tube.

[0008] A cutting mechanism is disposed downstream of the straightening mechanism to cut the straightened tube. The cutting mechanism includes a metering component and a cutting component arranged sequentially along the direction of the tube. The metering component includes a support member clamped below the tube and a metering component clamped above the tube for measuring the length of the tube. The support member is provided with an elastic member for holding the tube against the metering component. The metering component is configured to rotate under the drive of the tube to measure the length of the tube. The cutting component is configured to press down on the support member when cutting the tube to move the tube away from the metering component.

[0009] Furthermore, the cutting mechanism includes a support base for fixing the metering component and the cutting component, the support member including a mounting plate rotatably connected to the support base and a roller rotatably connected to the mounting plate, and the elastic member connecting the support base and the mounting plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the measuring element includes a connecting plate rotatably connected to the support base and a measuring wheel fixedly disposed on the connecting plate, the measuring wheel being configured to press against the tube body and remain stationary when the tube body is pressed down due to cutting.

[0011] Furthermore, the support base is also provided with a limiting post located between the connecting plate and the mounting plate. The limiting post is used to restrict the connecting plate from driving the measuring wheel to move downward when the tube is cut.

[0012] Furthermore, the cutting assembly includes a cutting structure disposed above the tube body and a cutting seat disposed below the tube body, the cutting seat being configured such that the tube body is suspended above the cutting seat when the tube body is being transported.

[0013] Furthermore, the cutting structure includes a cutting blade, a driving member for driving the cutting blade to move in a vertical direction, and a guide member connected between the cutting blade and the support base, the guide member being used to guide the movement direction of the cutting blade.

[0014] Furthermore, the guide includes a guide rail fixedly mounted on the support base and a slider slidably mounted on the guide rail, with the cutting blade fixed on the slider.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This application uses a heating mechanism, a straightening mechanism, and a cutting mechanism arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the feeding mechanism to straighten and cut the tube body. A metering component is used to measure the length of the tube body so that the cutting component can cut the tube body into equal lengths. When the cutting component cuts the tube body, it presses down on the tube body to separate the tube body from the metering component, avoiding inaccurate measurement data caused by the rotation of the tube body. After the cutting is completed, the support component, under the action of the elastic component, holds the tube body back on the metering component so that the tube body length can continue to be measured during tube body conveying. This effectively reduces measurement errors, improves the accuracy of equal-length tube body cutting, and improves work efficiency.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The fully automatic synchronous transmission pipe cutting machine shown in one embodiment of this application includes a feeding mechanism, a heating mechanism 10, a straightening mechanism 20 and a cutting mechanism 30, for straightening and cutting pipes to the same length.

[0027] The feeding mechanism (not shown) is used to convey the pipe body along the first direction a; the feeding mechanism is used to drive the pipe body to pass sequentially through the heating structure, the straightening mechanism 20 and the cutting mechanism 30, and the heating mechanism 10 is used to heat the pipe body so that the straightening mechanism 20 located downstream of the heating mechanism 10 can straighten the pipe body. These are all prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] In one embodiment, the straightening mechanism 20 is provided in two sets. The two sets of straightening mechanisms 20 straighten the pipe body in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. Of course, in other embodiments, the straightening mechanism 20 can also be provided in multiple sets to straighten the pipe body in multiple directions around the pipe body. The number of straightening mechanisms 20 can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0029] The cutting mechanism 30 is located downstream of the straightening mechanism 20 to cut the straightened tube. The cutting mechanism 30 includes a metering component 31 and a cutting component 32 arranged sequentially along the tube direction. The metering component 31 includes a support member clamped below the tube and a metering component clamped above the tube for measuring the length of the tube. The support member is provided with an elastic member for holding the tube against the metering component. The metering component is configured to rotate under the drive of the tube to measure the length of the tube. The cutting component 32 is configured to press down on the support member when cutting the tube so that the tube is away from the metering component.

[0030] In one embodiment, the cutting mechanism 30 includes a support base for fixing the metering component 31 and the cutting component 32. The support includes a mounting plate 311 rotatably connected to the support base and a roller rotatably connected to the mounting plate 311. An elastic element is connected between the support base and the mounting plate 311. The elastic element is a spring, which is always in a stretched state so that the mounting plate 311 always tends to hold the tube body towards the metering component, so that the mounting plate 311 can drive the tube body to return to its original position after the tube body is cut.

[0031] In one embodiment, the measuring element includes a connecting plate 313 rotatably connected to a support base and a counting wheel 314 fixedly mounted on the connecting plate 313. The counting wheel 314 is configured to press against the tube body and remain stationary when the tube body is pressed down due to cutting. This configuration facilitates controlling the counting wheel 314 at a suitable height, preventing it from moving as the tube body is pressed down, which would cause changes in the counting of the counting wheel 314. This can be achieved by setting a limiting structure at the rotatable connection end of the connecting plate 313 to limit its downward rotation distance. The counting wheel 314 is used to measure the length of the tube body, which is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0032] In one embodiment, the support base is further provided with a limiting post located between the connecting plate 313 and the mounting plate 311. The limiting post is used to restrict the connecting plate 313 from driving the measuring wheel 314 downward when the tube is cut. By setting the limiting post between the connecting plate 313 and the mounting plate 311, the downward rotation distance of the connecting plate 313 is limited, and the upward rotation distance of the mounting plate 311 is also limited, so that when the measuring wheel 314 and the roller abut against both sides of the tube, the tube can be kept horizontal.

[0033] In one embodiment, the cutting assembly 32 includes a cutting structure disposed above the tube and a cutting seat 323 disposed below the tube. The cutting seat 323 is configured such that the tube is suspended above the cutting seat 323 when it is being transported. During the tube transport process, the bottom of the tube is higher than the cutting seat 323, so that when the tube is cut, the cutting blade 322 will press the tube down onto the cutting seat 323, thereby driving the roller 312 to rotate downwards, so as to separate the tube from the metering wheel 314.

[0034] In one embodiment, the cutting structure includes a cutting blade 322, a driving member 321 for driving the cutting blade 322 to move vertically, and a guide member 324 connected between the cutting blade 322 and the support base. The guide member 324 guides the movement direction of the cutting blade 322. The driving member 321 is a cylinder. By providing the guide member 324 to guide the cutting blade 322, the cutting blade 322 can accurately extend into the cutting groove of the cutting base 323, avoiding rigid collision between the cutting blade 322 and the cutting base 323 and resulting damage.

[0035] In one embodiment, the guide member 324 includes a guide rail 3241 fixedly mounted on a support base and a slider 3242 slidably mounted on the guide rail 3241, with the cutting blade 322 fixed on the slider 3242. Two sets of guide members 324 are provided, respectively arranged on both sides of the cutting blade 322.

[0036] In one embodiment, the support base includes a first support base 315 for fixing the metering component 31 and a second support base 325 for fixing the cutting component 32. The elastic element includes a first elastic element 316 connected vertically between the first support base 315 and the mounting plate 311 and a second elastic element 317 connected between the end of the mounting plate 311 and the second support base 325. The first support base 315 and the second support base 325 are spaced apart along the tube conveying direction, so that the second elastic element 317 is connected in an inclined direction between the mounting plate 311 and the second support base 325. This ensures that after the second support base 325 is rotated upward to a certain height, the forces applied to the mounting plate 311 by the first elastic element 316 and the second elastic element 317 remain balanced, so that the mounting plate 311 can be fixed in a specific position.

[0037] This application uses a heating mechanism, a straightening mechanism, and a cutting mechanism arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the feeding mechanism to straighten and cut the tube. A metering component measures the length of the tube so that the cutting component can cut the tube to the same length. When the cutting component cuts the tube, it presses down on the tube to separate the tube from the metering component, avoiding inaccurate measurement data caused by the rotation of the tube. After cutting, the support component, under the action of the elastic component, holds the tube back on the metering component so that the tube length can continue to be measured during tube conveying. This effectively reduces measurement errors and improves the accuracy of cutting equal-length tubes.

[0038] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0039] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
