Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of hybrid tube manufacturing, and more specifically, to a hybrid tube manufacturing apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] In the workshop, the bumper painting line uses a two-component clear coat. The two-component clear coat is mixed using a mixing tube inside a robot before spraying. During the mixing process, the acrylic component of the clear coat and the isocyanate component of the hardener undergo a cross-linking reaction within the spiral mixing core inside the mixing tube, forming a network-like polyurethane structure. During production, paint residue accumulates within the mixing core. If this residue is not cleaned promptly, it will affect the painting quality of the bumper, thus impacting the bumper's pass rate.

[0003] Currently, most mixing tubes on the market are manufactured through injection molding using corresponding molds, resulting in high costs. Therefore, to avoid waste, workshops often clean and reuse the mixing tubes. However, the cleaning process is very cumbersome. To thoroughly remove paint residue from the mixing core, a rinsing device and a large amount of cleaning solvent are required for maintenance cleaning of the mixing tube. The cleaning process is time-consuming, inefficient, and generates a large amount of hazardous waste liquid, increasing hazardous waste emissions. Utility Model Content

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the length measuring mechanism 200 includes a scale 210 connected to the base 100, and a sliding seat 220 slidably inserted into the scale 210. The sliding seat 220 includes a slider 221 and a slider 222 connected to the slider 221. The slider 222 has a hole, and the scale 210 is slidably connected to the slider 222 through the hole.

In this embodiment, the operating head 520 is rotatably connected to the base 100 via a connecting rod.

[0037] The working principle of the mixing tube manufacturing device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0038] First, slide the sliding block 220 on the scale 210 to the corresponding mark position of the required pipe length, align the Teflon tube with that mark position, and cut it. Next, set the required heating temperature using the temperature controller 320, and insert the Teflon tube into the surrounding heating element 310 for softening. After softening, place the Teflon tube into the mixing core, and then use the bayonet 410 at both ends of the Teflon tube to press out the bayonet through the arc-shaped bayonet 413 to secure the mixing core inside the tube. Finally, place the pipe between the bend 511 and the operating head 520, as shown... Figure 1 As shown, turn handle 530 to bend the pipe, as... Figure 5 As shown, the mixing tube is now complete.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] This embodiment is a second embodiment of a mixing tube manufacturing apparatus. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that, as shown in the following... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the heating mechanism 300 also includes an operating switch 340 electrically connected to the temperature controller 320, which enables the heating mechanism 300 to start and stop heating. In this embodiment, the operating switch 340 is connected to the base 100.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] This embodiment is a third embodiment of a mixing tube manufacturing device. This embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1 or 2, except that, as shown in the following... Figure 5As shown, a stop block 512 is connected to the side of the bending disc 510 near the heating end. The stop block 512 can prevent the pipe fitting from shifting during the bending operation. An arc-shaped groove 521 is provided on the side of the operating head 520 near the bending groove 511. The arc-shaped groove 521 can prevent the cross-section of the pipe fitting from undergoing unnecessary deformation during the bending operation. It should be noted that the cross-section of the pipe fitting refers to the cross-section along the radial direction.

[0043] In this embodiment, the abutment block 512 is located near the surrounding heating element 310, and the abutment block 512 is located on the side away from the rotating operation of the operating head 520; specifically, as shown... Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the operating head 520 rotates toward the free end of the first side of the U-shaped groove to perform the pipe bending operation, while the abutment block 512 is located at the free end of the second side of the U-shaped groove.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to enable the pipe bending disc 510 to be suitable for pipe bending operations of various specifications, multiple bending grooves 511 of different sizes can be arranged from top to bottom on the outer edge of the pipe bending disc 510, and arc grooves 521 of different curvatures can also be arranged from top to bottom on the operating head 520.

[0045] The working principle of the mixing tube manufacturing device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0046] When pipe bending is required, the pipe is passed between the second side of the U-shaped groove and the abutment block 512, and then comes into contact with the arc-shaped groove 521; the handle 530 is turned so that the operating head 520 drives the pipe to rotate from the second side of the U-shaped groove to the first side of the U-shaped groove, thus completing the pipe bending operation.
