Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a double pipe bending machine, and more particularly to an automatic clamping and drilling device for the head of a double pipe bending machine. Background Technology

[0002] Pipe bending machines, as the main mechanical equipment for bending pipes, are widely used in shipbuilding, power construction, railway and highway construction, and bridge construction. With the continuous improvement of my country's comprehensive national strength and the increasing demand for various types of bent pipes, the market has increasingly higher requirements for the functions and performance of pipe bending machines.

[0003] Currently available double pipe bending machines can only bend pipes. If holes need to be machined in the bent pipes, the bent pipes need to be removed from the double pipe bending machine and then clamped onto a drilling machine or milling machine for drilling. This second clamping is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to problems such as inaccurate drilling position. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an automatic clamping and drilling device for a double pipe bending machine head, which can be used to drill holes directly on the pipe bending machine without removing the bent pipe from the machine, thus saving time and effort.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: the automatic clamping and drilling device for the double pipe bending machine head includes: a clamping frame fixedly mounted on the double pipe bending machine head; a fixed seat mounted on the clamping frame via a first vertical sliding structure, and the fixed seat can move up and down relative to the clamping frame via the first vertical sliding structure; a clamping die base mounted on the fixed seat via a second vertical sliding structure; a clamping upper die fixedly mounted at the bottom of the clamping die base; and an upper die cavity corresponding to and matching the outer contour of the pipe at the bottom of the clamping upper die; a processing platform is provided on the fixed seat. The processing platform has a first through-hole. A clamping lower die is fixedly installed on the platform. The top of the clamping lower die has a lower die cavity that matches the outer contour of the pipe. The clamping lower die is located below the clamping upper die. After the clamping upper die moves downward through a second vertical sliding structure, it can clamp the pipe between the upper die cavity of the clamping upper die and the lower die cavity of the clamping lower die. A second through-hole is provided on the clamping lower die. The first and second processing holes are coaxial. The mounting frame is installed on the fixed base through a third vertical sliding structure. Drilling can be done with a drill bit or a milling cutter. Therefore, this solution has a milling cutter assembly or a drilling assembly on the mounting frame. The milling cutter in the milling cutter assembly or the drill bit in the drilling assembly can pass through the first and second processing holes to process the pipe between the upper die cavity of the clamping upper die and the lower die cavity of the clamping lower die.

[0006] There are various structural forms of the second sliding device available on the market. In principle, any sliding device that can enable the clamping die to move up and down relative to the fixed seat can be used on the automatic clamping and drilling device of the double pipe bending machine head. Considering the overall spatial arrangement, clamping stability, and ease of operation, this solution designs the second sliding device as follows: The second vertical sliding structure is as follows: A clamping cylinder is fixedly installed on the fixed seat. The piston rod of the clamping cylinder points downward, and the end of the piston rod is fixedly connected to the clamping die. When the piston rod of the clamping cylinder retracts inward or extends outward, it can drive the upper clamping die to move upward or downward. After the upper clamping die presses the pipe downward under the drive of the clamping cylinder, the clamping cylinder will always give the upper clamping die a constant downward force. This force can ensure that the upper and lower clamping dies firmly clamp the pipe and prevent it from loosening.

[0007] Similarly, considering the spatial arrangement of the overall structure and the ease of operation, this solution designs the following third vertical sliding structure: the mounting bracket is mounted on the fixed base via a linear guide rail. A feed servo motor is fixedly mounted on the fixed base, and the motor shaft of the feed servo motor is fixedly connected to a ball screw. The mounting bracket has threaded holes that mate with the ball screw, and the mounting bracket is screwed onto the ball screw through these threaded holes. In this solution, the ball screw is installed as follows: a bearing seat with a bearing assembly is provided on the fixed base, and the ball screw is supported by the bearing assembly.

[0008] When milling holes with a milling cutter, a milling cutter assembly is mounted on a mounting bracket. The milling cutter assembly has the following structure: a servo motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket, the motor shaft of the servo motor points upwards, and the motor shaft is fixedly connected to the milling cutter shank via a milling cutter chuck. Besides milling, holes can also be machined using a drill bit. In this case, a drilling assembly is mounted on the mounting bracket. The drilling assembly has the following structure: a servo motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket, the motor shaft of the servo motor points upwards, and the motor shaft is fixedly connected to the drill bit shank via a drilling chuck.

[0009] Furthermore, in the aforementioned automatic clamping and drilling device for the double pipe bending machine head, the fixed base consists of a processing platform, an upper fixed base located at the top of the processing platform, and a lower fixed base located at the bottom of the processing platform. The clamping mold base is installed on the upper fixed base via a second vertical sliding structure, and the mounting frame is installed on the lower fixed base via a third vertical sliding structure. An upper reinforcing rib is provided between the upper fixed base and the processing platform, and a lower reinforcing rib is provided between the processing platform and the lower fixed base to enhance the overall strength of the fixed base.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the above-mentioned device has a simple and compact structure, occupies little space, and when using this device, there is no need to remove the bent pipe from the pipe bending machine. The bent pipe can be drilled directly on the pipe bending machine, which saves time and effort. Moreover, there is no need for secondary positioning, which greatly improves the accuracy of the drilling position. Attached Figure Description

[0017] In this embodiment, the automatic clamping and drilling device for the double pipe bending machine head is installed on the machine head of the double pipe bending machine, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the device includes: a clamping frame 1 fixedly mounted on the head of a double pipe bending machine; a fixed seat 2 mounted on the clamping frame 1 via a first vertical sliding structure, and the fixed seat 2 being able to move up and down relative to the clamping frame 1 via the first vertical sliding structure. The first vertical sliding structure can be a commercially available sliding structure, as long as it enables the fixed seat 2 to move up and down relative to the clamping frame 1. This embodiment provides a sliding structure where the fixed seat 2 is mounted on the clamping frame 1 using a vertical linear guide rail, and then a hydraulic cylinder drives the fixed seat 2 to move up and down along the vertical linear guide rail.

[0018] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping mold base 3 is mounted on the fixed base 2 via a second vertical sliding structure. A clamping upper mold 31 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the clamping mold base 3, and the bottom of the clamping upper mold 31 is provided with an upper mold cavity 311 that corresponds to and matches the outer contour of the pipe. A processing platform 22 is provided on the fixed base 2, and a first processing hole 221 that runs vertically through the pipe is opened on the processing platform 22. A clamping lower mold 9 is fixedly mounted on the processing platform 22, and the top of the clamping lower mold 9 is provided with a lower mold cavity 91 that corresponds to and matches the outer contour of the pipe. The clamping lower mold 9 is located below the clamping upper mold 31, and the clamping upper mold 31 can clamp the pipe between the upper mold cavity 311 of the clamping upper mold 31 and the lower mold cavity 91 of the clamping lower mold 9 after moving downward via the second vertical sliding structure. A second processing hole that runs vertically through the pipe is opened on the clamping lower mold 9, and the first processing hole 221 and the second processing hole are coaxial.

During operation, when the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 32 retracts inward, it drives the upper clamping mold 31 to move upward, moving the upper clamping mold 31 away from the lower clamping mold 9, thereby releasing the pipe located between the upper mold cavity 311 of the upper clamping mold 31 and the lower mold cavity 91 of the lower clamping mold 9. When the piston rod of the clamping cylinder 32 extends outward, it drives the upper clamping mold 31 to move downward, moving the upper clamping mold 31 closer to the lower clamping mold 9, until the pipe located between the upper mold cavity 311 of the upper clamping mold 31 and the lower mold cavity 91 of the lower clamping mold 9 is clamped.

The ball screw 8 is installed as follows: a bearing seat 7 with a bearing assembly is provided on the fixed base 2, and the ball screw 8 is supported by the bearing assembly. Assuming that when the feed servo motor 5 rotates forward, driving the ball screw 8 to rotate, it forces the mounting bracket 4 to move upward along the linear guide. At this time, the milling cutter assembly is activated, and the milling cutter in the milling cutter assembly passes through the first machining hole 221 and the second machining hole to machine the tube between the upper die cavity 311 clamped to the upper die 31 and the lower die cavity 91 clamped to the lower die 9. Conversely, when the feed servo motor 5 rotates in reverse, driving the ball screw 8 to rotate, it forces the mounting bracket 4 to move downward along the linear guide and return to its original position.

[0023] The above-mentioned device has a simple and compact structure and occupies little space. When using this device, there is no need to remove the bent pipe from the pipe bending machine. The bent pipe can be drilled directly on the pipe bending machine, which saves time and effort. Moreover, there is no need for secondary positioning, which greatly improves the accuracy of the drilling position. Example 2
