Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a steel-aluminum mixed fuel pipe. BACKGROUND
[0002] Now the conventional fuel pipe is made of steel pipe, which leads to the weight of the fuel pipe is very large, not conducive to lightweight, for sports cars and other occasions require lightweight, not applicable.
[0003] Therefore, one of the easily thought of solutions is to replace the steel pipe with an aluminum pipe. Aluminum has low density, which can greatly reduce the weight, but there is a problem. The characteristics of aluminum make it impossible to expand the hole of the aluminum pipe. Since the section of the fuel pipe near the fuel port is a variable diameter hole, it cannot be achieved. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a steel-aluminum mixed fuel pipe, which greatly reduces the weight of the product and avoids the problem of inconvenient processing of aluminum pipes alone.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present application provides the following technical scheme: a steel-aluminum mixed fuel pipe, comprising a variable diameter pipe made of steel and an elbow pipe made of aluminum, and the variable diameter pipe and the elbow pipe are fixed together. In the present application, the variable diameter pipe which is inconvenient to process the aluminum pipe is changed to steel, and then the two are fixed together, which greatly reduces the weight of the product and avoids the problem of inconvenient processing of aluminum pipes alone.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the variable diameter pipe and the elbow pipe are sleeved together at one end, and the overlapping part of the variable diameter pipe and the elbow pipe is a polygon in cross section. Specifically, the elbow pipe is inserted into the outer circle of the variable diameter pipe, and a polygon-shaped mandrel is inserted into the overlapping part, and then placed into a punch, the overlapping part of the variable diameter pipe and the outer appearance are deformed by punching, and finally the mandrel is pulled out, which realizes the connection of the variable diameter pipe and the elbow pipe.
[0007] As a specific embodiment of the present application, the overlapping part of the variable diameter pipe and the elbow pipe is a regular hexagon in cross section.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the outer circle of the variable diameter pipe has a groove, and the groove has a sealing ring, and the sealing ring is in contact with the outer circle of the variable diameter pipe and the inner circle of the elbow pipe, respectively. After the variable diameter pipe and the elbow pipe are punched and connected, there may be some gaps. In order to avoid leakage, a sealing ring is added.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the other end of the variable diameter pipe is connected with an oil inlet.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the outer ring of the reducing pipe has a plurality of protrusions, and the end of the elbow pipe is connected with a connecting pipe by die casting, the connecting pipe is sleeved outside the reducing pipe, and the protrusions are embedded in the connecting pipe. In this way, leakage at the connection is almost impossible, but the mold requirement is high.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:
[0012] In the present application, the reducing pipe inconvenient to process with an aluminum pipe is changed into a steel pipe, and then the two are fixed together, which greatly reduces the weight of the product and avoids the problem of inconvenient processing of the aluminum pipe alone.
