Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of finned tube processing technology, specifically a finned tube punching device. Background Technology

[0002] Finned tubes are a type of heat exchange element. To improve heat exchange efficiency, fins are usually added to the surface of the heat exchange tube to increase its outer (or inner) surface area, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency. In the existing technology, the fins are spiral or straight. In order to increase the tube length, the finned tubes are generally processed by a serpentine winding method. In order to fix the finned tubes, holes need to be punched on the fins to facilitate the installation of bolts.

Frequent fixture adjustments are required. Punch replacement is inconvenient and time-consuming. Furthermore, punching waste is prone to accumulate and cannot be cleaned in time, affecting processing accuracy and safety. Utility Model Content

[0034] The dust collection mechanism is installed on the top of the bracket 2 and is used to collect the debris generated during the punching process.

[0035] In this embodiment: the positioning mechanism is used to fix and position the finned tube to be punched. The finned tube is placed between two V-shaped clamps 7. The rotary valve 24 drives the lead screw 5 to rotate. The lead screw 5 is a bidirectional lead screw, that is, the threads at both ends are opposite, thereby synchronously driving the two V-shaped clamps 7 to move relative to each other, thereby clamping and fixing the finned tube. The inner side of the V-shaped clamp 7 has a V-shaped structure, which can be adapted to finned tubes of different diameters, making it highly versatile and easy to operate.

[0036] The punch 11 is fixed inside the positioning groove 9 by inserting the positioning block 10, and then the fixing bolt 12 passes through the entire mounting head 8 and the positioning block 10 to limit and lock it.

[0040] In this embodiment: During the punching process, the vacuum generator 19 is activated, and the debris generated by punching enters the dust guide pipe 20 through the air passage 16. Then, the vacuum generator 19 works to generate negative pressure, which adsorbs the debris into the dust collection box 18 for easy handling, keeps the processing environment clean, and reduces the maintenance frequency.

[0041] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the positioning mechanism also includes a slide rail 21 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the worktable 1.

The fixing screw 23 is used to lock the slide plate 22, so that the slide plate 22 and the slide rail 21 are relatively fixed.

[0043] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the lead screw 5 is a bidirectional lead screw, with one end extending to the outside of the side plate 4 and fixedly connected to a rotary valve 24.

[0044] In this embodiment: the lead screw 5 is a bidirectional lead screw, one end of which extends to the outside of the side plate 4 and is fixedly connected to a rotary valve 24. The rotary valve 24 facilitates the rotation of the lead screw 5. The lead screw 5 is a bidirectional lead screw, that is, the threads at both ends are opposite, thereby synchronously driving the two V-shaped clamps 7 to move relative to each other, thereby clamping and fixing the finned tube.

[0048] In this embodiment, the roller 27 rolls inside the groove 26, and the roller 27 is fixed to the bottom of the V-shaped clamp 7, thereby limiting the V-shaped clamp 7 so that it can only move in the horizontal direction.

[0049] Working principle: During use, the finned tube is placed between two V-shaped clamps 7. The rotary valve 24 drives the lead screw 5 to rotate. The lead screw 5 is a bidirectional lead screw, that is, the threads at both ends are opposite, thereby synchronously driving the two V-shaped clamps 7 to move relative to each other, thus clamping and fixing the finned tube. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 13 is activated to drive the mounting head 8 to move down. The mounting head 8 drives the punch 11 to punch the finned tube. The telescopic rod 15 is set to guide and improve the stability of the punch 11 when it is pressed down. During the punching process, the vacuum generator 19 is activated. The debris generated by punching enters the dust guide pipe 20 through the air passage 16. Then, the vacuum generator 19 works to generate negative pressure, which adsorbs the debris into the dust collection box 18 for easy processing. The punch 11 is fixed inside the positioning groove 9 by the positioning block 10. Then, the fixing bolt 12 passes through the entire mounting head 8 and the positioning block 10 to limit and lock it. It is more convenient and less time-consuming to replace different models of punch 11.

[0050] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
