Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning duct technology, and to air conditioning duct forming equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In the automotive and HVAC industries, air conditioning ducts, as the core carriers for refrigerant transport, directly determine the cooling and heating performance, assembly compatibility, and long-term reliability of air conditioning systems based on their forming precision, structural stability, and production efficiency. With the increasing trends of lightweight and intelligent vehicles and the growing demand for multi-specification commercial air conditioning systems, the market is placing higher demands on the processing quality of air conditioning ducts. This includes ensuring consistency in the shape of each duct during mass production to avoid problems such as refrigerant leakage and increased flow resistance due to dimensional deviations.

[0003] According to the publicly available (announcement) number: "A fully automatic automotive air conditioning pipe forming equipment", CN223159887U is disclosed. This technology discloses "a technical solution including a frame and a clamping assembly, wherein a limiting component one, a fixing block one and a limiting component three are fixedly installed on the side of the frame near the clamping assembly, a fixing block two is fixedly installed on the side away from the fixing block one, and an insert block one is fixedly installed on the outer side of the fixing block two, etc. The technical solution has the advantages of making the air conditioning pipe less prone to shaking and more stable when bending through the cooperation of the clamping assembly, the limiting component one and the limiting component three, and also improving the bending accuracy. Through the cooperation of the fixing block two with the groove and the insert block one with the slot one, the bending plate can be quickly positioned. Through the cooperation of the positioning rod one with the positioning groove one and the bolt, the threaded hole two with the threaded hole one, the bending plate can be quickly locked. The bending plate can be easily disassembled and assembled during use or assembly, etc."

[0004] In the aforementioned comparative documents, although the clamping components prevent the air conditioning pipes from shaking during bending, the distance between the outer surface of pipes of different diameters and the bending disc varies during use. If the outer surface of the pipe cannot contact the bending groove of the bending disc during bending, deformation may occur, thus failing to meet the accuracy requirements. At the same time, the contact area between the stop block 2 and the pipe is limited during bending. The stop block 2 needs to rotate continuously to bend the pipe. The rotation of the stop block 2 will cause the contact area between the pipe and the stop block 2 to change continuously, resulting in the stop block 2 no longer resisting the previous bending point. The pipe bending area loses the necessary constraint, which may lead to an excessive bending angle due to the elastic rebound of the metal material, or defects such as dents and wrinkles due to uneven local stress.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes an air conditioning duct forming device. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing an air conditioning duct forming device.

[0013] The limiting component includes a limiting tube set on the top of the movable plate, a fixed plate fixedly connected to the side wall of the limiting tube, and a second electric push rod detachably connected to the top of the fixed plate. The telescopic end of the second electric push rod is fixedly connected to the limiting plate. By setting the limiting component, the pipeline is protected and the deviation of the bending point is avoided when the pipeline is bent, thereby avoiding affecting the bending accuracy of the pipeline.

[0042] Working principle:

[0043] When bending is required, the air conditioning duct forming equipment allows the duct to pass through the clamping tube 301 and the limiting tube 401. The first electric push rod 303 drives the clamping plate 304 and the anti-slip pad 305 to clamp the duct, thus holding it at the center of the bending groove on the bending ring 6. After clamping, the second electric push rod 403 drives the limiting plate 404 to limit the duct's position. After clamping, the knob 201 rotates the threaded rod 202, causing the movable plate 203 and the duct to move, thus bringing the duct into contact with the bending groove on the bending ring 6. After contact, the cylinder 503 is activated, driving the bending block 504 to abut against the duct. During this contact, the motor 501 is activated to drive the circular block... 502 and cylinder 503 rotate to bend the pipe. During bending, the extrusion block 702 presses against the baffle 703. After being pressed, the baffle 703 disengages from the limiting position of the shaping block 705. At this time, the shaping block 705 falls into the groove set in the bending ring 6, thereby shaping the pipe after bending. After the pipe is bent and shaped, the electric telescopic rod 706 drives the lifting ring 707 to rise, thereby resetting the shaping block 705. This causes the spring telescopic rod 704 to drive the baffle 703 to reset, thus enabling the shaping block 705 to be reused. During long-term use of the clamping assembly 3 and the limiting assembly 4, the fixing rod 804 can be pulled out by the pull plate 802 to disassemble and replace the clamping assembly 3 and the limiting assembly 4, thereby avoiding affecting the bending of the pipe.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
