Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flat aluminum tube processing technology, specifically a flat aluminum tube extrusion straightening machine. Background Technology

[0002] Flat aluminum tube extrusion straightening machines play an indispensable role in industrial production. Firstly, during production and transportation, flat aluminum tubes are prone to bending or twisting deformation. This straightening machine, by applying precise external force, acts like a skilled craftsman, gradually restoring the deformed tube to a standard shape. Whether used in architectural decoration to ensure aesthetic and smooth installation, or in other applications, it meets stringent shape requirements. Secondly, it can fine-tune critical dimensions such as thickness and width of the flat aluminum tube. Bending during processing can cause dimensional deviations, and the straightening machine can bring these dimensions back to within acceptable tolerances, providing stable quality flat aluminum tubes for high-precision fields such as aerospace and automotive manufacturing. Thirdly, it effectively improves the internal stress distribution of the flat aluminum tube. Like a deep "internal conditioning" for the tube, uneven internal stress generated during processing can lead to subsequent deformation or cracking. The straightening machine, through extrusion and straightening actions, redistributes internal stress evenly, making the flat aluminum tube more stable and reliable in use. Finally, it also improves surface quality. For flat aluminum tubes with wrinkles and scratches caused by deformation, the straightening machine can perform some repairs during the straightening process, while avoiding new damage and laying a good foundation for subsequent surface treatment processes.

[0003] During production, transportation, or storage, flat aluminum tubes may accumulate dust, debris, oil, and other impurities on their surface. If straightened directly without cleaning, these impurities may be pressed into the surface of the aluminum tube during the straightening process, forming pits or scratches, affecting the final surface flatness of the flat aluminum tube. Existing flat aluminum tube extrusion straightening machines require manual cleaning of the top and bottom of the flat aluminum tube, or cleaning with tools, which reduces functionality and makes it difficult to simultaneously adjust the vertical distance between the pressure rollers and brushes. This hinders the straightening and cleaning of flat aluminum tubes of different thicknesses, reducing practicality. Utility Model Content

[0026] Example: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 A flat aluminum tube extrusion straightening machine includes a machine housing 1, a cover 2 on the top of the machine housing 1, a lifting component on the top of the cover 2, a straightening component on the bottom outer side of the lifting component, a connecting block 10 at one end of the straightening component, and a cleaning component at the other end of the connecting block 10.

[0027] A lifting assembly, which is assembled to adjust the distance between the straightening assemblies;

[0028] A cleaning component, which is assembled to clean flat aluminum tubes.

[0029] Furthermore, a top plate 14 is installed through the top of the chassis 1, and a cover 2 is fixed to the top of the chassis 1.

[0030] Furthermore, the straightening assembly includes two supports 13, one of which is fixed to the bottom of the inner side of the housing 1, and the other support 13 is threaded to the outside of four threaded rods 9. The other ends of the four threaded rods 9 are rotatably connected to the top of one of the supports 13. Five pressure rollers 12 are rotatably mounted on the inner side of both supports 13. Any two adjacent pressure rollers 12 are driven by a sprocket and a chain at the outer side of one end of the inner side of the support 13. A motor 4 is fixed on one side of each of the two supports 13, and the output ends of the two motors 4 are fixedly connected to one of the pressure rollers 12 on the inner side of the two supports 13.

[0031] In this embodiment, the operator starts two motors 4 to rotate in opposite directions. The two motors 4 drive the pressure rollers 12 fixedly connected to them to rotate in opposite directions. At the same time, the pressure rollers 12 fixedly connected to the motors 4 drive the other pressure rollers 12 to rotate through sprockets and chains. When the flat aluminum tube enters the straightening assembly, the pressure rollers 12 on the inner side of the two supports 13 straighten the flat aluminum tube. After straightening is completed, the operator uses a conveyor belt or places the straightened flat aluminum tube.

[0032] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly includes a recycling bin 6 and a support plate 8. The recycling bin 6 is fixed to one side of the housing 1, and two connecting blocks 10 are fixed to another support 13 on the side near the recycling bin 6. The support plate 8 is fixed to the side of the two connecting blocks 10 away from the housing 1. Cleaning rods 11 are rotatably mounted on the inner sides of both the support plate 8 and the recycling bin 6, and a brush 18 is fixed to the outer side of each cleaning rod 11.

[0033] Furthermore, a limiting plate 7 is fixed to one side of the sealing plate. The limiting plate 7 consists of a horizontal plate and two vertical plates. One side of the horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the sealing plate, and the bottom of the two vertical plates is fixed to the top of the recycling bin 6. The support plate 8 is slidably connected to the outside of the two vertical plates.

[0034] Furthermore, the other ends of the two pressure rollers 12, which are fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 2 4, are each fixed with an extension rod 17. A large belt 19 pulley is fixed to the outside of each extension rod 17. A small belt 19 pulley is fixed to the outside of the end of each cleaning rod 11 near the motor 1 3. A belt 19 is fitted on the outside of the large belt 19 pulley and the small belt 19 pulley near the top of the housing 1. Another belt 19 is fitted on the outside of the large belt 19 pulley and the small belt 19 pulley near the bottom of the housing 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the operator starts two motors 4 to rotate in opposite directions. The two motors 4 drive the pressure rollers 12 fixedly connected to them to rotate in opposite directions. The pressure rollers 12 fixedly connected to the motors 4 drive the two extension rods 17 to rotate. The two extension rods 17 drive the cleaning rods 11 to rotate in opposite directions through the large belt pulley 19, the small belt pulley 19 and the belt 19. The two extension rods 17 drive the brushes 18 to rotate in opposite directions. When the flat aluminum tube enters the brushes 18 that are close to each other, the impurities and dust on the top and bottom of the flat aluminum tube are cleaned and removed. Finally, the impurities and dust are recycled to the inside of the recycling box 6.

[0036] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a motor 3, which is fixed to the top of the cover 2. Four threaded rods 9 are rotatably mounted through the top of the top plate 14, and the top of one of the threaded rods 9 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3. Gears are fixed to the outer side of the end of each of the four threaded rods 9 near the motor. Toothed belts 15 are fitted on the outer side of the four gears and are located at the bottom of the cover plate.

[0037] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt can feed materials to the device, preparing it for subsequent work;

[0038] The operator controls motor 3 to rotate forward. The output end of motor 3 drives threaded rod 9 to rotate forward. Threaded rod 9 drives three other threaded rods 9 to rotate forward through four gears and toothed belt 15. The four threaded rods 9 drive the outer supports 13 of the four threaded rods 9 to move closer to the top plate 14 through meshing. Supports 13 drive the support plate 8 to move along the outer side of the vertical plate closer to the top plate 14 through two connecting blocks 10. By increasing the distance between the two supports 13, the vertical distance between the pressure rollers 12 and the two cleaning rods 11 in the same vertical direction is increased.

[0039] The operator controls motor 3 to reverse, and the output end of motor 3 drives threaded rod 9 to reverse. Threaded rod 9 drives three other threaded rods 9 to reverse through four gears and toothed belt 15. The four threaded rods 9 drive the outer supports 13 of the four threaded rods 9 to move away from the top plate 14 through meshing. Supports 13 drive the support plate 8 to move away from the top plate 14 along the outer side of the vertical plate through two connecting blocks 10. By reducing the distance between the two supports 13, the vertical distance between the pressure rollers 12 and the two cleaning rods 11 is reduced.

[0040] This allows for the straightening of flat aluminum tubes of different thicknesses while simultaneously cleaning flat aluminum tubes of different sizes, increasing practicality.

[0041] Working principle: Before using the device, check for any issues that might affect its use. The operator fixes the conveyor belt carrying the flat aluminum tube to the inside of the groove on one side of the casing 1 of the recycling bin 6, allowing the conveyor belt to feed the device. The operator controls the forward and reverse rotation of motor 3, controlling the vertical distance between the pressure rollers 12 and the two cleaning rods 11. The operator starts the two motors 4 to rotate in opposite directions, driving the pressure rollers 12 to rotate. The pressure rollers 12, which are fixedly connected to motors 4, drive the two extension rods 17 to rotate. The two extension rods 17 drive the brushes 18 to rotate in opposite directions, cleaning and removing impurities and dust from the top and bottom of the flat aluminum tube. When the flat aluminum tube enters the straightening assembly, the pressure rollers 12 inside the two supports 13 straighten the flat aluminum tube. After straightening, the operator uses the conveyor belt or places the straightened flat aluminum tube.
