[0002] Aluminum foil corrugated pipe, also known as aluminum foil expansion tube, has good heat insulation, oil resistance, aging resistance, and flexibility. It is a widely used product for wire harness and pipeline protection.

[0003] Existing aluminum foil corrugated pipes only undergo slitting during processing, without flaring. During use, the opening of the aluminum foil pipe must be manually pried open to enlarge it before installation onto the protected sleeve, significantly increasing installation complexity and reducing efficiency. Furthermore, the opening of the aluminum foil pipe poses a risk of injury. Manual flaring also makes it difficult to ensure consistent size and shape each time, resulting in poor product consistency and severely impacting the product's aesthetics. Therefore, improvement is necessary. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for flaring and widening aluminum foil corrugated pipes, which has the advantages of simple structure and good flaring and widening effect.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an aluminum foil corrugated tube flaring and splitting device, comprising a base; a receiving roller and a discharging roller are rotatably connected to both ends of the base along the conveying direction of the aluminum foil corrugated tube, respectively; a guide sleeve for conveying the aluminum foil corrugated tube is fixedly connected to the base along the conveying direction of the aluminum foil corrugated tube, and a flaring shaft is slidably connected based on a screw sliding assembly; a flaring assembly is fixedly connected to the head of the flaring shaft on the screw sliding assembly; and an abutting and pressing assembly for abutting and pressing the inner wall of the aluminum foil corrugated tube is slidably connected to the head of the flaring shaft along the vertical direction based on an electromagnetic pressing assembly.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: the lead screw sliding assembly includes a drive lead screw rotatably connected to the base along the conveying direction parallel to the aluminum foil corrugated pipe and a sliding seat slidably connected to the base; the sliding seat has a lead screw hole that cooperates with the drive lead screw; a drive motor that drives the drive lead screw to rotate is fixedly connected to the base; the flared shaft is fixedly connected to the sliding seat based on a connecting rod; and the slit assembly and the electromagnetic pressing assembly are fixedly connected to the sliding seat.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the sliding assembly includes a sliding motor fixedly connected to the sliding seat and a sliding wheel coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the sliding motor.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the pressing assembly includes a vertical sliding groove formed in the head of the flared shaft along the vertical direction and a vertical sliding block slidably connected in the vertical sliding groove along the vertical direction; a return spring is fixedly connected between the vertical sliding groove and the vertical sliding block; and an abutment wheel for pressing the aluminum foil corrugated tube against the inner wall of the guide sleeve is rotatably connected to one end of the vertical sliding block away from the flared shaft.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the electromagnetic pressing component includes an electromagnet fixedly connected to the sliding seat based on the mounting rod and a magnetic block fixedly connected to the vertical sliding block, wherein the electromagnet generates a repulsive force on the magnetic block when energized, thereby driving the abutment wheel to press down.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a slit groove is provided at the bottom of the guide sleeve.

[0011] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. A guide sleeve for conveying aluminum foil corrugated tubes is fixed on a base, and a flaring shaft is set on the base based on a screw sliding assembly. A slitting assembly is set at the head of the flaring shaft. During the conveying of the aluminum foil corrugated tube within the guide sleeve, the slitting motor of the slitting assembly drives the slitting wheel to rotate, thereby slitting the aluminum foil corrugated tube. The slidable aluminum foil corrugated tube passes through the flaring shaft during conveying to complete the flaring. To ensure the slitting effect, an abutment and pressing assembly is set at the head of the flaring shaft, and a corresponding electromagnetic pressing assembly is set on the screw sliding assembly. The abutment and pressing assembly is located on the flaring shaft. A vertical sliding groove is formed, and a vertical sliding block is set on the vertical sliding groove. An abutment wheel is rotatably set at the end of the vertical sliding block away from the flaring axis. When the slit is made, the electromagnet of the abutment pressing component is energized, which generates a repulsive force on the magnetic block set on the vertical sliding block, thereby driving the abutment wheel to press down and thus abutting the aluminum foil corrugated tube against the inner wall of the guide sleeve, thus ensuring the slit effect. The abutment force of the abutment wheel against the aluminum foil corrugated tube can be adjusted by adjusting the magnetic force of the electromagnet, thus ensuring the slit effect without damaging the aluminum foil corrugated tube, and further ensuring the flaring effect of the aluminum foil corrugated tube. The structure is simple and the slit and flaring effect is good. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Example:

[0018] refer to Figures 1 to 2 A device for flaring and slitting aluminum foil corrugated tubes includes a base 1. A take-up roller 11 and a feed roller 12 are rotatably connected to both ends of the base 1 along the conveying direction of the aluminum foil corrugated tube. The take-up roller 11 and the feed roller 12 cooperate to realize the continuous or intermittent conveying of the aluminum foil corrugated tube. A guide sleeve 2 for conveying the aluminum foil corrugated tube is fixedly connected to the base 1 along the conveying direction of the aluminum foil corrugated tube. A flaring shaft 4 is slidably connected based on a screw sliding assembly 3. A flaring assembly 5 is fixedly connected to the head of the flaring shaft 4 on the screw sliding assembly 3. An abutting and pressing assembly 7 for abutting and pressing the inner wall of the aluminum foil corrugated tube is slidably connected to the head of the flaring shaft 4 along the vertical direction based on an electromagnetic pressing assembly 6.

[0019] refer to Figure 1Specifically, the lead screw sliding assembly 3 includes a drive lead screw 31 rotatably connected to the base 1 along the conveying direction parallel to the aluminum foil corrugated pipe, and a sliding seat 32 slidably connected to the base 1. A lead screw hole 33 is provided on the sliding seat 32 to cooperate with the drive lead screw 31. A drive motor 34 for rotating the drive lead screw 31 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The flaring shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the sliding seat 32 based on a connecting rod. The slitting assembly 5 and the electromagnetic pressing assembly 6 are fixedly connected to the sliding seat 32. By setting the lead screw sliding assembly 3, the positions of the flaring shaft 4, the slitting assembly 5, and the electromagnetic pressing assembly 6 on the guide sleeve 2 can be flexibly adjusted. The aluminum foil corrugated pipe can be flexibly adjusted in terms of its flaring and splitting patterns. The pipe is continuously conveyed along the conveying direction within the guide sleeve 2. The screw sliding assembly 3 remains stationary, ensuring that the relative positions of the flaring shaft 4, the flaring assembly 5, and the electromagnetic pressing assembly 6 with the guide sleeve 2 remain unchanged. This allows the aluminum foil corrugated pipe to undergo both flaring and splitting processes simultaneously during conveying, resulting in high processing efficiency. Alternatively, the aluminum foil corrugated pipe can be intermittently conveyed within the guide sleeve 2. By reciprocating the flaring shaft 4, the flaring assembly 5, and the electromagnetic pressing assembly 6 driven by the screw sliding assembly 3, multiple flaring processes can be performed on the same section of the aluminum foil corrugated pipe, improving the flaring effect.

[0020] refer to Figure 2 Specifically, the slitting assembly 5 includes a slitting motor 51 fixedly connected to the sliding seat 32 and a slitting wheel 52 coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the slitting motor 51. During the conveying of the aluminum foil corrugated tube in the guide sleeve 2, the slitting motor 51 of the slitting assembly 5 drives the slitting wheel 52 to rotate, thereby slitting the aluminum foil corrugated tube. The slitting aluminum foil corrugated tube passes through the flaring shaft 4 during the conveying process to complete the flaring. The pressing assembly 7 includes a vertical sliding groove 71 opened vertically at the head of the flared shaft 4 and a vertical sliding block 72 slidably connected in the vertical sliding groove 71. A return spring 73 is fixedly connected between the vertical sliding groove 71 and the vertical sliding block 72. An abutment wheel 74 for pressing the aluminum foil corrugated tube against the inner wall of the guide sleeve 2 is rotatably connected to the end of the vertical sliding block 72 away from the flared shaft 4. A slit groove 8 is opened at the bottom of the guide sleeve 2 for the slit wheel 52 and the connecting rod to pass through.

[0021] refer to Figure 2Specifically, the electromagnetic pressing component 6 includes an electromagnet 61 fixedly connected to the sliding seat 32 based on the mounting rod, and a magnetic block 62 correspondingly fixedly connected to the vertical sliding block 72. The electromagnet 61, when energized, generates a repulsive force on the magnetic block 62, thereby driving the abutment wheel 74 to press down. An abutment pressing component 7 is provided at the head position of the flared shaft 4, and a corresponding electromagnetic pressing component 6 is provided on the lead screw sliding component 3. The abutment pressing component 7 has a vertical sliding groove 71 opened on the flared shaft 4, and a vertical sliding block 72 is provided on the vertical sliding groove 71. A stop wheel 74 is rotatably mounted at the end of block 72 away from the flaring shaft 4. When slitting is performed, the electromagnet 61 of the abutment pressing assembly 7 is energized, thereby generating a repulsive force on the magnetic block 62 mounted on the vertical sliding block 72, which drives the stop wheel 74 to press down, thereby abutting the aluminum foil corrugated tube against the inner wall of the guide sleeve 2, thus ensuring the slitting effect. The abutting force of the stop wheel 74 against the aluminum foil corrugated tube can be adjusted by adjusting the magnetic force of the electromagnet 61, thereby ensuring the slitting effect without damaging the aluminum foil corrugated tube, and further ensuring the flaring effect of the aluminum foil corrugated tube.

[0022] Brief description of the usage process: During the conveying process of the aluminum foil corrugated tube in the guide sleeve 2, the slitting motor 51 of the slitting assembly 5 drives the slitting wheel 52 to rotate, thereby slitting the aluminum foil corrugated tube. After slitting, the aluminum foil corrugated tube passes through the flaring shaft 4 during the conveying process to complete the flaring.

After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment that make creative contributions as needed, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
