Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model specifically relates to an auxiliary tooling for testing polytetrafluoroethylene pipe joints. Background Technology
[0002] Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a high molecular weight polymer obtained by polymerizing tetrafluoroethylene as a monomer, with the chemical formula (C2F4). n It exhibits excellent heat and cold resistance, allowing for long-term use at temperatures ranging from -180 to 260ºC. This material is resistant to acids, alkalis, and various organic solvents, and is virtually insoluble in all solvents. Furthermore, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is heat-resistant and has an extremely low coefficient of friction.
[0003] Currently, when using wires made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a wire sheath is installed on the outside of the wire. This sheath is spliced together by a connector. However, the surface of the connector may be damaged during the production process. After the product is finished, the staff needs to pick up the connector and conduct a comprehensive inspection, which is cumbersome and affects work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary tooling for testing polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pipe joints, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an auxiliary tooling for testing polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pipe joints, comprising a base, a movable base, a clamping mechanism, a driving unit, and a rolling unit. The movable base is disposed on the surface of the base, the clamping mechanism is disposed on the surface of the movable base, and the clamping mechanism includes four clamping columns. The driving unit controls the contact and separation between the clamping columns and the PTFE pipe joint, and the rolling unit is used to drive the PTFE pipe joint to rotate.
[0006] Preferably, the drive unit includes two support frames disposed on the upper surface of the movable seat, each support frame having a rotating block on both sides, and a connecting rod between the two rotating blocks, the connecting rod being connected to a clamping column via a fixing block.
[0007] Preferably, a handle is provided on the outside of the support frame, and the handle is connected to the rotating block through a rotating rod.
[0008] Preferably, the rolling unit includes multiple support platforms disposed on the upper surface of the movable seat and located between two support frames.

[0012] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: This auxiliary tooling for inspecting PTFE pipe joints allows the PTFE pipe joint to be placed between two rotating rollers. The motor is started, and its power output drives the first gear to rotate. Under the transmission chain, the two second gears rotate. Through the cooperation of the bearing seats, the two rotating rollers rotate.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0019] To improve work efficiency, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the device includes a base 1, a movable base 2, a clamping mechanism, a drive unit, and a rolling unit. The movable base 2 is disposed on the surface of the base 1, and the clamping mechanism is disposed on the surface of the movable base 2. The clamping mechanism includes four clamping columns 3. The drive unit controls the contact and separation of the clamping columns 3 with the PTFE pipe joint. The rolling unit is used to drive the PTFE pipe joint to rotate. By placing the PTFE pipe joint to be tested between two rotating rollers 10, the motor 12 is started. The power output end of the motor 12 drives the first gear 11 to rotate. Under the transmission of the transmission chain 14, the two second gears 13 are driven to rotate. Through the cooperation of the bearing seat 9, the two rotating rollers 10 are rotated. Through the friction between the rotating rollers 10 and the PTFE pipe joint, the PTFE pipe joint is driven to rotate. The operator can then observe whether there is damage on the outer surface of the PTFE pipe joint without manual rotation, saving time and labor costs and speeding up the overall work efficiency.
[0020] For easier and more accurate observation, please refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the driving unit includes two support frames 4 disposed on the upper surface of the movable seat 2. Rotating blocks 5 are disposed on both sides of each support frame 4, and a connecting rod 6 is disposed between the two rotating blocks 5. The connecting rod 6 is connected to the clamping column 3 via a fixing block. A handle 7 is disposed on the outer side of the support frame 4, and the handle 7 is connected to the rotating block 5 via a rotating rod. When the handle 7 is rotated, the handle 7 drives the rotating rod to rotate, causing the rotating block 5 to rotate. The rotating block 5 can drive the clamping column 3 to move towards the PTFE pipe joint, so that the clamping column 3 abuts against the outer surface of the PTFE pipe joint, thereby fixing the PTFE pipe joint. This allows workers to carefully observe areas suspected of damage on the surface of the PTFE pipe joint, improving the accuracy of the inspection. When precise observation is not required, the clamping column 3 moves away from the PTFE pipe joint, without affecting the rotation of the PTFE pipe joint under the rotation of the rotating roller 10. The rolling unit includes multiple support platforms 8 disposed on the upper surface of the movable seat 2 and located between two support frames 4. Each support platform 8 has a bearing seat 9 on its upper surface. A rotating roller 10 is directly positioned between every two non-adjacent support platforms 8. The two ends of each rotating roller 10 are inserted into the bearing seat 9. Two rotating rollers 10 are configured, and a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pipe joint is placed between the two rotating rollers 10. As the rotating rollers 10 rotate, the friction between the rotating rollers 10 and the PTFE pipe joint drives the PTFE pipe joint to rotate. A rotating shaft is inserted into the outer side of the bearing seat 9, and a first gear 11 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating shaft. A motor 12 is also disposed on the upper surface of the movable seat 2. A second gear 13 is sleeved on the power output end of the motor 12. A transmission chain 14 is disposed on the outer side of the first gear 11 and the second gear 13. As the motor 12 drives the second gear 13 to rotate, it drives the transmission chain 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the first gear 11 to rotate, further driving the rotating rollers 10 to rotate. The base 1 has slide rails 15 on both sides of its upper surface, and the movable seat 2 has a slider 16 adapted to the slide rails 15 on its lower surface. The base 1 also has a telescopic cylinder 17 on its upper surface. The power output end of the telescopic cylinder 17 is connected to the lower surface of the movable seat 2 through a connecting block 18. As the telescopic cylinder 17 drives the connecting block 18, the slider 16 slides along the length of the slide rails 15, thereby moving the movable seat 2.
[0021] In use, the PTFE pipe joint to be tested is first placed between the two rotating rollers 10. The motor 12 is started, and the power output end of the motor 12 drives the first gear 11 to rotate. Under the transmission of the transmission chain 14, the two second gears 13 are driven to rotate. Through the cooperation of the bearing seat 9, the two rotating rollers 10 are rotated. Through the friction between the rotating rollers 10 and the PTFE pipe joint, the PTFE pipe joint is driven to rotate. The staff can then observe whether there is any damage on the outer surface of the PTFE pipe joint. Turning the handle 7 drives the rotating rod to rotate, causing the rotating block 5 to rotate. The rotating block 5 can drive the clamping column 3 to move towards the PTFE pipe joint, so that the clamping column 3 abuts against the outer surface of the PTFE pipe joint, thereby fixing the PTFE pipe joint. This allows the staff to carefully observe the suspected damaged parts on the surface of the PTFE pipe joint.
[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
