Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fuel pipe technology, and in particular to a crimping device for connecting pipes and fittings. Background Technology

[0002] The fuel pipeline system is a crucial component of a vehicle's power transmission, and its connection quality directly impacts engine performance, fuel efficiency, and overall vehicle safety. Fuel lines typically require crimping connections to ensure fuel doesn't leak under high pressure and can withstand vibrations and shocks during vehicle operation. Traditional fuel line and connector connections often rely on manual methods, such as clamps, threaded connections, or welding. However, these methods have several limitations: manual operation is inefficient, lacks precision, and is prone to human error leading to weak connections or insufficient seals, resulting in fuel leaks and other safety hazards.

[0003] Therefore, it is essential to invent a crimping device for connecting pipes and fittings. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a crimping device for connecting pipes and fittings, solving the issues of low efficiency, difficulty in guaranteeing accuracy, and susceptibility to weak connections or insufficient sealing due to human factors in existing fuel pipe crimping structures. The crimping device for connecting pipes and fittings includes a working base plate, a sliding frame, a sliding plate, a front-end fixing structure, a rear-end fixing structure, a support structure, a crimping machine, and a fuel pipe. The sliding frame is fixedly mounted on the surface of the working base plate, and the sliding plate is slidably mounted on the sliding frame. The front-end fixing structure is fixedly mounted on the front end of the sliding plate surface. The rear-end fixing structure is fixedly mounted on the rear end of the sliding plate surface, and the support structure is fixedly mounted on the surface of the working base plate. The crimping machine is fixedly mounted above the support structure. The fuel pipe is placed on the surface of the sliding plate via the front-end and rear-end fixing structures.

[0005] The front-end fixing structure includes a pipe placement seat, a clamp support, a fixing clamp, and a stabilizing clamp. The pipe placement seat is fixedly installed on the front end of the sliding plate surface. The clamp support is fixedly installed on one side of the pipe placement seat and extends upward. The fixing clamp is fixedly installed on the top of the clamp support, and the stabilizing clamp is fixedly installed on one end of the fixing clamp.

[0006] The support structure includes a support base, an extension seat, an extension arm, a feeding push rod, and a pipe connector. The support base is fixedly installed on the surface of the working plate, and the extension seat is fixedly installed on one side of the support base. The extension arm is fixedly installed on the extension seat, and the feeding push rod is fixedly installed on the top end of the extension arm. The pipe connector is clamped at the top end of the feeding push rod.

[0007] The internal structure of the front-end fixing structure is completely identical to that of the rear-end fixing structure, and the pipe placement seat is a set of plastic blocks. The surface of the pipe placement seat is provided with a groove for placing the fuel pipe. The fixing clamp is tilted downward under the support of the clamp support, pointing towards the fuel pipe. The pipe joint is a rubber rod with a groove at the front end, and the groove at the front end of the pipe joint is consistent with the curvature of the fuel pipe. The fuel pipe clamped by the front-end fixing structure can move back and forth back and forth with the support of the sliding plate.

[0008] The feeding push rod inside the support structure is located at the center of the crimping machine under the support of the extension arm, and the front end of the feeding push rod is equipped with a clamping structure. The feeding push rod can send the pipe joint into the inside of the crimping machine through its own extension and retraction, and connect it with the fuel pipe.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] 1. The front-end fixing structure of this utility model secures the fuel pipe to the front end of the sliding plate via a pipe placement seat and a fixing clamp, ensuring stability during the crimping process. The groove on the surface of the pipe placement seat provides support and positioning, while the fixing clamp further clamps the fuel pipe, ensuring accurate positioning. The front-end and rear-end fixing structures work together to secure both ends of the fuel pipe, and the sliding plate allows for the forward and backward movement of the fuel pipe, facilitating precise alignment with the pipe connector, thereby improving the operational efficiency and stability of the crimping equipment.

[0011] 2. The support structure of this utility model provides stable support for the crimping machine and achieves precise positioning, feeding, and docking of the pipe joint through the extension arm and feeding push rod. The support base and extension seat are fixed on the working plate to ensure the stability of the crimping machine; the feeding push rod pushes the pipe joint into the crimping machine through its telescopic movement and precisely docks with the fuel pipeline, ensuring a tight and deviation-free crimping process. In addition, the automated design of the support structure improves the working efficiency and operational accuracy of the equipment and reduces manual intervention. Attached Figure Description

The fixing clamp 43 is fixedly installed on the top of the clamp support 42, and the stabilizing clamp 44 is fixedly installed on one end of the fixing clamp 43.

[0021] The support structure 6 includes a support base 61, an extension seat 62, an extension arm 63, a feeding push rod 64, and a pipe joint 65. The support base 61 is fixedly installed on the surface of the working base plate 1, and the extension seat 62 is fixedly installed on one side of the support base 61. The extension arm 63 is fixedly installed on the extension seat 62, and the feeding push rod 64 is fixedly installed on the top end of the extension arm 63. The pipe joint 65 is clamped on the top end of the feeding push rod 64.

[0022] The internal structure of the front-end fixing structure 4 is completely identical to that of the rear-end fixing structure 5, and the pipe placement seat 41 is a set of plastic blocks.
