[0002] Traditional aluminum tube post-sealing processes rely heavily on manual operation and simple tooling fixtures, which presents numerous problems. In terms of positioning accuracy, manual placement of aluminum tubes based on visual inspection and experience lacks precise positioning assistance, easily leading to positional deviations, uneven sealing, poor sealing effect, reduced product qualification rate, increased costs, and rework. Regarding production efficiency, the heavy reliance on manual labor, cumbersome and repetitive operations, and loose coordination between steps prevent continuous and efficient mass production, making it difficult to meet market demands. The lack of automated control and monitoring means that experience-based operation cannot guarantee standard sealing, and problems are difficult to detect and correct in a timely manner, hindering quality control and process optimization. Furthermore, tooling fixtures are adapted to specific specifications, and changing them is complex and time-consuming, affecting production flexibility and timeliness, and making it difficult to handle the production of aluminum tubes of different specifications.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides the following technical solution: a rotary aluminum tube tail sealing device, including a PLC controller 131 and a turntable 2. An aluminum tube support assembly is installed on the turntable 2. The aluminum tube support assembly includes a first disc 3, a second disc 4, and a support shaft 5. The second disc 4 is connected to the turntable 2. The first disc 3 is connected to the second disc 4 through the support shaft 5. Opening slots 6 are evenly distributed on the outer circumferential wall of the first disc 3. The second disc 4 is adjacent to the first disc 3. One end is provided with an end slot 7. A frame 8 is provided near the turntable 2. A lifting platform 9 is installed on the frame 8. An electro-hydraulic clamp 11 is connected to the slide 10 of the lifting platform 9. A shaping pressure plate 12 is connected to the clamp of the electro-hydraulic clamp 11. A PLC controller 131 is provided inside the frame 8. A controller 13 is provided on the frame 8. The controller 13 is connected to the turntable 2, the lifting platform 9, the electro-hydraulic clamp 11, and the controller 13 via wires.

[0019] In the above structure, the opening slot 6 and the end slot 7 are arranged opposite to each other. By using the aluminum tube support assembly installed on the turntable 2, the opening slot 6 of the first plate 3 and the end slot 7 of the second plate 4 are arranged opposite to each other, which can accurately position and place the aluminum tube, making it convenient for the subsequent sealing operation to be carried out in an orderly manner according to the predetermined process, and ensuring the accuracy of the position of the aluminum tube on the turntable 2.

[0020] In this embodiment, a bracket 14 is provided on the slide 10 of the elevator 9, and an infrared sensor 15 is provided on the bracket 14. The infrared sensor 15 is connected to the circuit of the PLC controller 131 through a wire.

[0021] In the above structure, the infrared sensor 15 enables the real-time monitoring of the relevant position during the movement of the electro-hydraulic clamp 11 driven by the elevator 9, and feeds the signal back to the PLC controller 13. This allows the PLC controller 13 to more accurately control the electro-hydraulic clamp 11 to reach the accurate working position according to the preset program, thereby improving the positioning accuracy during the sealing operation and reducing sealing quality problems caused by position deviation.

[0022] In this embodiment, the state is provided with a spacer sleeve 16, and the second disk body 4 has a fitting groove 17 adapted to the spacer sleeve 16, and the spacer sleeve 16 and the fitting groove 17 are interference fit.

[0023] With the above structure, the spacer sleeve 16 can not only effectively protect the internal structure of the turntable 2, preventing it from being affected by external factors or collisions during operation, but also facilitate the quick replacement of the first disc 3 and the second disc 4 of different specifications, enhancing the overall applicability and flexibility of the device. The component specifications can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual aluminum tube specifications and other requirements.

[0024] In this embodiment, the elevator 9 is connected to the frame 8 via a reinforcing rib frame 18.

[0025] In the above structure, on the one hand, the position of the lifting platform 9 on the frame 8 can be adjusted to flexibly change the distance between the first disc 3 and the shaping pressure plate 12, which can better adapt to the sealing requirements of aluminum tubes of different lengths and specifications; on the other hand, it effectively improves the connection strength between the lifting platform 9 and the frame 8, making the lifting platform 9 more stable and reliable when driving the electro-hydraulic clamp 11 to move up and down to perform the sealing operation, ensuring the stability of the entire sealing process and helping to improve the sealing quality.

[0026] In this embodiment, an annular groove 19 is provided at the end of the first disk 3 away from the second disk 4.

[0027] In the above structure, warning lights, lamps, cameras and other components can be installed in the annular groove 19 as needed. The warning lights can serve as a warning when the equipment is running, ensuring the safety of the operators; the lamps facilitate better observation of the aluminum tube and the sealing operation in poor lighting conditions; the camera can be used to record the operation process, which is convenient for subsequent viewing and analysis of the sealing situation and for quality traceability, thus expanding the functionality of the device.

[0028] Working Principle: The operator first places the aluminum tube into the opening slot 6 of the first disc 3 of the aluminum tube support assembly. Positioning is achieved using the end slot 7 of the second disc 4. Then, the PLC controller 13 controls the turntable to rotate once, bringing the aluminum tube to the designated working area. The lifting platform drives the electro-hydraulic clamp 11 downwards along the frame 8. The movement range is controlled by the PLC controller 13 according to a preset program. Once the electro-hydraulic clamp 11 reaches the designated position, it begins working, driving the shaping pressure plate 12 to apply corresponding pressure to the tail end of the aluminum tube. According to the set sealing requirements, the aluminum tube is squeezed and subjected to other operations to complete the sealing process. After sealing, the lifting platform drives the electro-hydraulic clamp 11 upwards along the frame 8 until it returns to its initial position, preparing for the next operation. The operator then removes the sealed aluminum tube and places an unsealed aluminum tube on top. The turntable rotates again, repeating the above steps. This cycle is repeated to seal each aluminum tube sequentially.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
