This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to errors, resulting in inaccurate insertion of the copper tube. Manual insertion requires workers to repeat the same action for a long time, which is labor-intensive and can easily lead to worker fatigue, thereby affecting work efficiency and product quality.

[0006] The insertion mechanism includes a mounting frame, with support frames fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting frame. A reciprocating lead screw is rotatably connected to the right end of the support frame. A first motor is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame. A drive pulley is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor. A belt is provided on the inner wall of the drive pulley, and a driven pulley is driven through the inner wall of the belt. A connecting frame is threaded onto the surface of the reciprocating lead screw. A push rod is fixedly connected to the right end of the connecting frame. A feeding frame is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame.
[0007] The above technical solution uses a first motor to drive a push rod to push the copper tube falling from the feeding rack into the mounting frame and inserting it into the fin layer. This design achieves the purpose of conveniently and labor-savingly inserting the copper tube into the fin layer, greatly improving the efficiency of tube insertion.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above solution, the inner wall of the driven pulley is fixedly connected to the surface of the reciprocating lead screw, and the surface of the push rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting bracket.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above solution, the fixing mechanism includes a second motor, the output end of the second motor is fixedly connected to a rotating screw, the surface of the rotating screw is rotatably connected to a limit frame, the surface of the rotating screw is threadedly connected to a slider, the upper end of the slider is fixedly connected to a sliding frame, the inner wall of the sliding frame is threadedly connected to a limit screw, the front end of the limit screw is fixedly connected to a limit screw, and the rear end of the limit screw is fixedly connected to a washer.
[0010] By using the above technical solution, which uses a rotating disk to drive the gasket to compress the fin layer and a second motor to drive the rotating screw to rotate, the fin layer can be easily fixed and its position can be adjusted, making the device more convenient to use.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, the surface of the slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting frame, and the lower end of the sliding frame is slidably connected to the upper end of the limiting frame.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, the support mechanism includes a support base, a support shell is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support base, and a motor support frame is fixedly connected to the front end of the support shell.
[0013] The above technical solutions provide support for the overall use of the device, making it more convenient to use.
[0014] As a further improvement to the above solution, the inner wall of the support shell is fixedly connected to the surface of the limiting frame, and the upper end of the motor support frame is fixedly connected to the lower end of the second motor.
[0015] As a further improvement to the above solution, the lower end of the mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support shell, and the surface of the connecting bracket is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting bracket.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] This invention features an insertion mechanism: after the fin layer is fixed, the copper tube insertion end is aligned with the direction of the fin layer and placed inside the feeding rack. The copper tube then slides into the mounting frame along the angle of the feeding rack. At this point, the first motor is started to rotate, and simultaneously, the first motor drives the reciprocating screw to rotate via a belt. As the reciprocating screw rotates, the connecting bracket on its surface moves due to the limitation imposed by the mounting frame, thereby driving the push rod to slide on the inner wall of the mounting frame. The push rod then pushes the copper tube that has fallen into the mounting frame to insert into the hole of the fin layer. When the push rod reaches its bottom, the connecting bracket, under the action of the reciprocating screw, pulls the push rod back, and the copper tube falls back into the mounting frame, thus achieving a cycle. The design of using the first motor to drive the push rod to push the copper tube falling from the feeding rack into the mounting frame and inserting it into the fin layer achieves the purpose of convenient and labor-saving insertion of the copper tube into the fin layer, greatly improving the efficiency of insertion.
[0018] This invention utilizes a fixing mechanism: First, the fin layer is placed on the upper end of the sliding frame. Then, the rotating disk is rotated to drive the limiting screw to rotate, thereby causing the gasket to press against the fin layer and fix it in place. Later, when the tube insertion requires position adjustment, a second motor is started to rotate, simultaneously driving the rotating screw to rotate. At this time, the slider on the surface of the rotating screw moves due to the limiting frame, thereby moving the sliding frame and fin layer at the upper end of the slider to adjust the position of the tube. This design, using the rotating disk to drive the gasket to press against the fin layer and the second motor to drive the rotating screw, achieves the goal of conveniently fixing the fin layer while simultaneously adjusting its position, making the device more convenient to use.

[0027] Example:
[0028] Please combine Figure 1-5 This embodiment of a novel copper tube insertion device for heat exchanger production includes a tube insertion mechanism 1, a fixing mechanism 2, and a supporting mechanism 3. The tube insertion mechanism 1 is located at the upper end of the supporting mechanism 3, and the fixing mechanism 2 is located at the left end of the tube insertion mechanism 1.
[0029] The insertion mechanism 1 includes a mounting frame 101. Support frames 102 are fixedly connected to both sides of the mounting frame 101. A reciprocating screw 103 is rotatably connected to the right end of the support frame 102. A first motor 104 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame 101. A drive pulley 105 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 104. A belt 106 is provided on the inner wall of the drive pulley 105. A driven pulley 107 is driven through the inner wall of the belt 106. A connecting frame 108 is threadedly connected to the surface of the reciprocating screw 103. A push rod 109 is fixedly connected to the right end of the connecting frame 108. A feeding frame 110 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame 101. The design of using the first motor 104 to drive the push rod 109 to push the copper tube falling from the feeding frame 110 into the mounting frame 101 and inserting it into the fin layer achieves the purpose of convenient and labor-saving insertion of copper tube into the fin layer, thereby improving the efficiency of insertion and enhancing the overall practicality of the device.
[0030] The inner wall of the driven pulley 107 is fixedly connected to the surface of the reciprocating lead screw 103, and the surface of the push rod 109 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting bracket 101.
[0031] The fixing mechanism 2 includes a second motor 201. A rotating screw 202 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 201. A limit frame 203 is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating screw 202. A slider 204 is threadedly connected to the surface of the rotating screw 202. A sliding frame 205 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider 204. A limit screw 206 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding frame 205. A limit screw 206 is fixedly connected to the front end of the limit screw 206. A washer 208 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the limit screw 206. The design of using a rotating disk 207 to drive the washer 208 to compress the fin layer and the second motor 201 to drive the rotating screw 202 to rotate achieves the purpose of conveniently fixing the fin layer while adjusting the position of the fin layer, making the device more convenient to use.
[0032] The surface of the slider 204 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limit frame 203, and the lower end of the slider frame 205 is slidably connected to the upper end of the limit frame 203.
[0033] The support mechanism 3 includes a support base 301, a support shell 302 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support base 301, and a motor support frame 303 is fixedly connected to the front end of the support shell 302.
[0034] The inner wall of the support shell 302 is fixedly connected to the surface of the limiting frame 203, and the upper end of the motor support frame 303 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the second motor 201.
[0035] The lower end of the mounting bracket 101 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support shell 302, and the surface of the connecting bracket 108 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting bracket 101.
[0036] The implementation principle of the novel copper tube insertion device for heat exchanger production in this embodiment is as follows: When using the device, the fin layer is first placed on the upper end of the sliding frame 205. Then, the rotating disk 207 is rotated to drive the limiting screw 206 to rotate, thereby driving the gasket 208 to squeeze the fin layer, thus fixing the fin layer. Then, when the position needs to be adjusted during subsequent tube insertion, the second motor 201 is started to rotate, which simultaneously drives the rotating screw 202 to rotate. At this time, the slider 204 on the surface of the rotating screw 202 is limited due to the limiting screw. The frame 203 limits the movement of the rotating screw 202, thereby moving the sliding frame 205 at the upper end of the slider 204 and the fin layer to adjust the position of the insertion tube. The design of using a rotating disk 207 to drive the pad 208 to compress the fin layer and the second motor 201 to drive the rotating screw 202 to rotate achieves the purpose of conveniently fixing the fin layer while adjusting its position, making the device more convenient to use. After the fin layer is fixed, the copper tube insertion end is aligned with the fin. The copper tube is placed into the feeding rack 110 in the direction of the layer, and then slides into the mounting frame 101 according to the angle of the feeding rack 110. At this time, the first motor 104 is started to rotate. At the same time, the first motor 104 drives the reciprocating screw 103 to rotate through the belt 106. When the reciprocating screw 103 rotates, the connecting bracket 108 on its surface moves on the surface of the reciprocating screw 103 due to the limitation of the mounting frame 101, thereby driving the push rod 109 to slide on the inner wall of the mounting frame 101, thereby pushing the tube into the mounting frame 101 through the push rod 109. The copper tube inside the mounting frame 101 is inserted into the hole of the fin layer. When the push rod 109 is pushed to the bottom, the reciprocating screw 103 will bring the push rod 109 back through the connecting frame 108. At this time, the copper tube falls back into the mounting frame 101, thus achieving circulation. The first motor 104 drives the push rod 109 to push the copper tube that falls from the feeding frame 110 into the mounting frame 101 and inserts it into the fin layer. This design achieves the purpose of convenient and labor-saving insertion of copper tube into the fin layer, which improves the efficiency of tube insertion and enhances the overall practicality of the device.
