It solves the problem that because tee pipe parts come in various sizes, placing the tee pipe parts between the first baffle and the two second baffles may not be suitable for all sizes of tee pipe parts, thus limiting the size of the tee pipe during processing and reducing its practicality.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a faucet tee pipe processing machine tool, including a support plate, a support seat fixed on the lower surface of the support plate, a clamping mechanism for fixing the tee pipe parts during processing in the inner cavity of the support plate, and a rotating mechanism for facilitating the processing of the tee pipe parts by the operator at the left end of the lower surface of the support plate.

[0006] The clamping mechanism includes a movable plate disposed in the inner cavity of the support plate. A dual-axis motor is fixed in the middle of the bottom wall of the movable plate. The output shafts at both ends of the dual-axis motor are fixed with first threaded rods. A movable plate is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the first threaded rod. The upper surface of the movable plate penetrates the inner top wall of the movable plate and extends to the upper side of the movable plate and is fixed with a mounting bracket. A rubber plate is fixed to the upper surface of the movable plate. A second threaded rod is threadedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting bracket, with one end penetrating and extending into its inner cavity. A pressure plate is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the second threaded rod through a bearing.

[0007] Furthermore, there are four support seats, which are evenly distributed on the lower surface of the support plate. A circular hole is provided on the upper surface of the support plate, and the inner diameter of the circular hole is larger than the outer diameter of the movable plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the side of the first threaded rod away from the dual-axis motor is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the movable plate via a bearing, the cross-sectional shape of the mounting bracket is inverted U-shaped, and the pressure plate is a rubber block.

[0009] Furthermore, a slide rod is fixed between the opposite sides of the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the movable plate and behind the dual-axis motor. Slide plates are slidably connected to both ends of the outer surface of the slide rod.

[0010] Furthermore, limit strips are fixed at both ends of the bottom wall of the movable plate, and the lower surfaces of the movable plate and the sliding plate move horizontally in the inner cavity of the limit strips.

[0011] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism includes a drive motor fixed to the left end of the lower surface of the support plate, a rotating rod fixed in the middle of the lower surface of the movable plate, the output shaft of the drive motor and the rotating rod being connected by belt drive, a circular groove being provided in the inner cavity of the support plate, fixing rods being fixed on both the left and right sides of the movable plate, pulleys being fixed on the opposite sides of the two fixing rods, and fixing grooves being provided on the inner walls of the opposite sides of the two circular grooves.

[0012] Furthermore, the size of the inner cavity of the circular groove is larger than the size of the fixed rod, and the two pulleys rotate horizontally within the inner cavity of the fixed groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This faucet tee pipe processing machine tool has a clamping mechanism in the inner cavity of the movable plate. Through the cooperation of the various mechanisms in the clamping mechanism, the two mounting brackets and the pressure plate can clamp and fix tee pipes of different sizes, making it adaptable to the processing of most tee pipes.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 The faucet tee pipe processing machine tool in this embodiment includes a support plate 1, a support seat 2 fixed on the lower surface of the support plate 1, a clamping mechanism 3 for fixing the tee pipe parts during processing in the inner cavity of the support plate 1, and a rotating mechanism 4 for facilitating the processing of the tee pipe parts by the operator at the left end of the lower surface of the support plate 1.

[0023] There are four support bases 2, which are evenly distributed on the lower surface of the support plate 1.

[0024] Please see Figure 2-3 To clamp and fix T-shaped pipes of different sizes, the clamping mechanism 3 in this embodiment includes a movable plate 301 disposed in the inner cavity of the support plate 1. A dual-axis motor 302 is fixed in the middle of the inner bottom wall of the movable plate 301. The output shafts at both ends of the dual-axis motor 302 are fixed with first threaded rods 303. The outer surface of the first threaded rods 303 is threadedly connected to a movable plate 304. When the dual-axis motor 302 is started, the output shafts of the dual-axis motor 302 rotate, thereby driving the two first threaded rods 303 to rotate. The rotation of the first threaded rods 303 causes the movable plate 304 threadedly connected to its surface to move. The upper surface of the movable plate 304 penetrates the inner top wall of the movable plate 301 and extends to the movable plate 301. A mounting bracket 305 is fixed on the upper side of the movable plate 301. The movement of the movable plate 304 can drive the mounting bracket 305 to move. A rubber plate 306 is fixed on the upper surface of the movable plate 301. The rubber plate 306 can increase friction. A second threaded rod 307 with one end penetrating and extending into its inner cavity is threadedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting bracket 305. A pressure plate 308 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the second threaded rod 307 through a bearing. The mounting bracket 305 can be moved to the upper side of the tee pipe. Then, the second threaded rod 307 is rotated. The second threaded rod 307 moves downward while rotating, thereby causing the pressure plate 308 to move downward until both ends of the tee pipe are pressed down and it can be processed.

[0025] In this embodiment, a circular hole is provided on the upper surface of the support plate 1. The inner diameter of the circular hole is larger than the outer diameter of the movable plate 301. The side of the first threaded rod 303 away from the dual-axis motor 302 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the movable plate 301 through a bearing. The cross-sectional shape of the mounting bracket 305 is an inverted U-shape. The pressure plate 308 is a rubber block, which increases the friction between it and the three-way pipe, resulting in a better processing effect.

[0026] Among them, a slide rod is fixed between the opposite sides of the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the movable plate 301 and behind the dual-axis motor 302. Slide plates are slidably connected to the left and right ends of the outer surface of the slide rod. The upper surface of the slide plate penetrates the inner top wall of the movable plate 301 and extends to the upper side of the movable plate 301 and is fixed to the mounting frame 305. Limit strips are fixed to the left and right ends of the inner bottom wall of the movable plate 301. The lower surfaces of the movable plate 304 and the slide plate move horizontally in the inner cavity of the limit strips.

[0027] It is understandable that the clamping mechanism 3 enables the two mounting brackets 305 and the pressure plate 308 to clamp and fix tee pipes of different sizes, making it adaptable to the processing of most tee pipes.

[0028] Please see Figure 4To avoid frequent disassembly and reassembly of the T-connector, the rotating mechanism 4 in this embodiment includes a drive motor 401 fixed to the left end of the lower surface of the support plate 1. A rotating rod 402 is fixed to the middle of the lower surface of the movable plate 301. The output shaft of the drive motor 401 is connected to the rotating rod 402 via a belt drive. The drive motor 401 can be started, and the output shaft of the drive motor 401 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating rod 402 to rotate via the belt. The rotation of the rotating rod 402 causes the movable plate 301 to rotate within the inner cavity of the circular hole. The inner cavity of the support plate 1 is provided with a circular groove 403. Fixed rods 404 are fixed on both the left and right sides of the movable plate 301. Pulleys 405 are fixed on the opposite sides of the two fixed rods 404. Fixed grooves 406 are provided on the inner wall of the opposite side of the two circular grooves 403. The rotation of the movable plate 301 drives the two fixed rods 404 to rotate in the inner cavity of the circular groove 403. At this time, the two pulleys 405 rotate in the inner cavity of the fixed groove 406. When the movable plate 301 rotates to the end of the T-shaped pipe that needs to be processed, the drive motor 401 can be stopped.

[0029] The inner cavity of the circular groove 403 is larger than the size of the fixed rod 404, and the two pulleys 405 rotate horizontally within the inner cavity of the fixed groove 406.

[0030] Understandably, adjusting the angles of the three ends of the tee pipe by rotating mechanism 4 can avoid workers frequently disassembling and fixing the tee pipe, greatly reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0031] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0032] (1) When processing the faucet tee pipe, first place the faucet tee pipe on the rubber plate 306, then start the dual-axis motor 302. The output shaft of the dual-axis motor 302 rotates, which in turn drives the two first threaded rods 303 to rotate. The rotation of the first threaded rods 303 causes the moving plate 304 with threads connected to its surface to move, which in turn drives the mounting bracket 305 to move. The movement of the mounting bracket 305 causes the sliding plate to slide on the outer surface of the sliding rod, which can limit the movement of the mounting bracket 305. Then the mounting bracket 305 can move to the upper side of the tee pipe. Then rotate the second threaded rod 307. The second threaded rod 307 rotates and moves downward, which causes the pressure plate 308 to move downward until it presses down both ends of the tee pipe so that it no longer moves, and then it can be processed.

[0033] (2) When the staff is processing it, all three ends of the three-way pipe need to be processed. In order to avoid frequent disassembly and fixing of the three-way pipe, the drive motor 401 can be started at this time. The output shaft of the drive motor 401 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating rod 402 to rotate through the belt. The rotation of the rotating rod 402 causes the movable plate 301 to rotate in the inner cavity of the round hole. The rotation of the movable plate 301 drives the two fixed rods 404 to rotate in the inner cavity of the round groove 403. At this time, the two pulleys 405 rotate in the inner cavity of the fixed groove 406. When the movable plate 301 rotates to the end of the three-way pipe that needs to be processed, the drive motor 401 can be stopped.
