Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] As attached Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a clamping device for processing round tubes, including a chuck 1. Three external jaws 2 are provided on one side of the chuck 1. The three external jaws 2 are arranged in an isosceles triangle on the chuck 1. An inner expansion soft jaw 3 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of each of the three external jaws 2. A positioning expansion 4 is provided at one end of the inner expansion soft jaw 3. A tailstock 5 is provided at the end of the positioning expansion 4 away from the chuck 1. A guide shaft 6 is provided on the side of the tailstock 5 close to the chuck 1. A guide small shaft 7 is provided at the end of the guide shaft 6 close to the chuck 1. A wrench 8 is fixedly installed on the front side of the bottom of the tailstock 5.

[0020] The positioning expansion tire 4 includes an inner limiting ring 9, and four expansion tires 10 are arranged on the outer side of the inner limiting ring 9. Each of the four expansion tires 10 has a limiting groove 16 inside, and the limiting groove 16 matches the width of the inner limiting ring 9. The inner wall of the expansion tire 10 has a strip groove 11. A fixing ring 12 is arranged between the four expansion tires 10. Insertion holes 13 are arranged through all four sides of the fixing ring 12. Insertion rods 14 are arranged inside each of the four insertion holes 13. An opposing cone 15 is arranged on one side of the fixing ring 12. An internal hexagonal hole 17 is arranged inside the end of the opposing cone 15 away from the fixing ring 12. A bearing is fixedly installed inside the end of the opposing cone 15 away from the fixing ring 12.

[0021] The strip groove 11 and the limiting groove 16 are arranged perpendicularly to each other.

[0022] The four insertion rods 14 correspond one-to-one with the four strip grooves 11, and the ends of the four insertion rods 14 are respectively disposed inside the strip grooves 11 at the corresponding positions.

[0023] The end of the opposing cone 15 is disposed inside the fixing ring 12, and the opposing cone 15 is threadedly connected to the fixing ring 12.

[0024] The end of the guide shaft 7 is adapted to the bearing.

[0025] The specific implementation method is as follows: When using this utility model, the tool is inserted into the chuck 1 and rotated to control the outer jaw 2 to move outward, thereby causing the three inner expansion soft jaws 3 to expand outward and tighten, fixing one end of the pipe. The inner expansion soft jaws have a groove at the end of the pipe to avoid interference from the cutting tool when machining the end face. Then, an Allen wrench is inserted into the Allen hole 17 and rotated, causing the opposing cones 15 to move inward. Since the opposing cones 15 are conical, they will squeeze the four expansion tires 10 outward during the movement, thereby fixing the other end of the pipe. Then, the guide shaft 7 on the tailstock 5 can be inserted into the bearing to complete the fixing and connection of the two ends of the pipe, and then processing can be performed. The left side of this utility model To tighten the device, a flexible connection device is added to the chuck 1 of the CNC lathe to achieve the function of securing the machining element. The left chuck 1 has space for CNC lathe machining, which is convenient for machining the outer cylindrical surface, end face, thread, etc. The right positioning expansion wrench 4 can be tightened with an Allen wrench. The right positioning expansion wrench 4 is equipped with a bearing, which facilitates the tailstock 5 of the lathe to effectively ensure the fixation and concentricity of the machining element. The machining element of this utility model can be fully machined on the same CNC lathe, ensuring that the end face of the machining element is parallel and that the machining elements on both sides are concentric, saving workers' production time and improving product quality.

[0026] Working principle of this utility model:

[0027] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-4 When using this utility model, by providing structures such as the positioning expansion tire 4, the left side of this utility model is a clamping device.
