Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bending device technology, specifically to a pipe bending device. Background Technology

[0002] Pipe bending is a cold working method that applies external force to metal pipes using specialized equipment, causing them to undergo controlled plastic deformation. This process has wide applications in the machinery manufacturing industry, particularly in the forming and processing of engine piping systems. Its core technology lies in precisely controlling process parameters such as loading force, bending radius, and deformation rate to induce plastic yielding in the pipe after the elastic deformation stage, ultimately forming a bending angle and arc shape that meets design requirements.

[0003] Chinese patent CN219211191U discloses a pipe bending device, including a mounting plate. A pipe wheel for rolling and conveying the pipe is rotatably connected to the mounting plate. The mounting plate has a stroke groove and a reciprocating assembly. A bending assembly is mounted on the reciprocating assembly and drives the bending assembly to move along the inner wall of the stroke groove. A limiting assembly that extends and retracts perpendicular to the direction of movement of the bending assembly is movably connected to the reciprocating assembly. This bending device, through the limiting assembly that moves synchronously with the bending assembly, ensures that the bent engine pipe contacts the limiting assembly during the rolling bending process. This limits the bending radius and stroke of the engine pipe, preventing over-bending and improving the bending quality.

[0004] The bending device described in the aforementioned patent document can bend pipe fittings through the coordinated action of the bending and limiting components. However, the aforementioned bending device can only perform unidirectional bending operations on the pipe fittings and cannot adjust the bending direction. Therefore, a pipe fitting bending device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0035] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] See Figures 1-7 As shown, a pipe bending device includes a workbench 1, a fixed frame 11 disposed on one side of the workbench 1, a bending mechanism 5 disposed on the fixed frame 11 for bending pipes, a slide 2 disposed on the top of the workbench 1 that can move in the horizontal direction, and an adjustment mechanism 3 disposed on the top of the slide 2 for conveying pipes. The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a fixed seat 31 fixed to the upper end face of the slide 2.

[0037] Two support platforms 32 are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the fixed base 31;

[0038] The support platform 32 has a horizontally mounted rotatable guide tube 33 inside, and a toothed belt 331 is provided on the outside of the guide tube 33.

[0039] The input end of the guide tube 33 is fixed with a feeding mechanism 4 for driving the tube to feed along its central axis.

[0040] A first stepper motor 34 is installed at the bottom of one of the support platforms 32, and a first gear 35 that meshes with a toothed belt 331 is fixed at the output end of the first stepper motor 34. The feeding mechanism 4 drives the internal tube to move along the central axis of the guide tube 33, allowing one end of the tube to enter the bending mechanism 5 for bending. After the bending mechanism 5 completes the initial bend of one end of the tube, the feeding mechanism 4 continues to drive the internal tube to move, and the bent portion of the tube extends out of the bending mechanism 5 without detaching from it. Then, the first stepper motor 34 is activated, driving the output end to rotate at a preset angle. This rotation of the output end by the first stepper motor 34 simultaneously drives the first gear 35 to rotate synchronously. At the same time, the first gear 35, through the meshing toothed belt 331, drives the guide tube 33 to rotate at a set angle. This allows for adjustment of the bending angle of the tube.

[0041] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a bearing sleeve 332 capable of rotating around its central axis is mounted on the outside of the guide tube 33;

[0042] The top of the support platform 32 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 321 for installing the bearing sleeve 332;

[0043] The top of the support platform 32 is fixed with an arc-shaped fixing plate 322 to prevent the bearing sleeve 332 from falling off.

[0044] By installing a bearing sleeve 332 on the outside of the guide tube 33, then installing the bearing sleeve 332 inside the arc-shaped groove 321 opened on the top of the support platform 32, and then fixing the bearing sleeve 332 with an arc-shaped fixing plate 322, displacement of the guide tube 33 during rotation is effectively prevented.

[0045] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the feeding mechanism 4 includes a housing 41 fixed to the input end of the guide tube 33, and a through hole 411 for the passage of the pipe is horizontally opened at the center of the housing 41.

[0046] The through hole 411 has symmetrical mounting grooves 412 on both sides. The mounting grooves 412 are equipped with rotatable conveying rollers 44. A driven gear 441 is rotatably mounted on one side of the housing 41. The driven gear 441 is fixed to the extension end of one set of conveying rollers 44.

[0047] A servo motor 43 is fixed on one side of the housing 41, and a second gear 431 that can mesh with the driven gear 441 is fixed at the output end of the servo motor 43.

[0048] First, the pipe fitting is inserted into the mounting slot 412, so that the outer surface of the pipe fitting contacts the outer ring of the conveying roller 44. When the servo motor 43 is started, the servo motor 43 drives the second gear 431 installed at its output end to rotate. Simultaneously, the rotation of the second gear 431 drives one set of conveying rollers 44 to rotate via the driven gear 441 meshing with it. When the conveying rollers 44 rotate, they can effectively achieve automatic feeding of the pipe fitting by driving its movement.

[0049] See Figure 7 As shown, the bending mechanism 5 includes a second stepper motor 51 fixed to the lower end face of the fixed frame 11. The output end of the second stepper motor 51 can pass through the upper end face of the fixed frame 11 and extend upward.

[0050] The output end of the second stepper motor 51 is fixed with a rotary table 52 that can rotate around its central axis. The upper surface of the rotary table 52 is horizontally fixed with a first slide rail 521 near the output end of the second stepper motor 51.

[0051] The upper surface of the rotary table 52 is provided with a slide block 54 that can be close to or away from the output end of the second stepper motor 51. The slide block 54 is slidably engaged with the first slide rail 521.

[0052] When the second stepper motor 51 is started, it drives the rotary table 52 fixed at its output end, allowing the rotary table 52 to rotate around its output end at a set angle. As the rotary table 52 rotates, it drives the slide 54 mounted on its upper surface to rotate synchronously around the central axis of the output end of the second stepper motor 51.

[0053] See Figure 7 As shown, the output end of the second stepper motor 51 is also fixed with a stop roller 53, and the bottom of the stop roller 53 sits on the top of the rotary table 52;

[0054] A mounting column 541 is longitudinally fixed to the top of the slide block 54, and an extrusion roller 542 that can cooperate with the stop roller 53 to clamp the pipe is mounted on the outside of the mounting column 541.

[0055] The extrusion roller 542 is mounted on a mounting post 541 fixed to the top of the slide 54. When the slide 54 approaches the output end of the second stepper motor 51, the slide 54, through the mounting post 541, drives one side of the extrusion roller 542 to contact the surface of the pipe, allowing the extrusion roller 542 to cooperate with the stop roller 53 to clamp the pipe. Then, driven by the rotary table 52, the slide 54 rotates around the output end of the second stepper motor 51, thereby causing the slide 54 to drive the extrusion roller 542 to rotate synchronously around the output end of the second stepper motor 51 through the mounting post 541. This achieves the bending of the pipe by the cooperation of the extrusion roller 542 and the stop roller 53.

[0056] See Figure 7 As shown, a first hydraulic telescopic member 55 for driving the slide block 54 to slide along the first slide rail 521 is fixed on one end of the upper surface of the rotary table 52. The output end of the first hydraulic telescopic member 55 is fixedly connected to the slide block 54.

[0057] By fixing the output end of the first hydraulic telescopic component 55 to the slide 54, the first hydraulic telescopic component 55 can drive the slide 54 to move closer to or further away from the output end of the second stepper motor 51. This enables the slide 54 to drive the extrusion roller 542 to move synchronously via the mounting column 541, effectively ensuring that the extrusion roller 542 can work in conjunction with the stop roller 53 to fix the pipe, thereby ensuring the pipe's integrity.

[0058] See Figure 7 As shown, a material blocking mechanism 6 is provided on the upper end face of the fixed frame 11. The material blocking mechanism 6 includes a base 61 fixed to the side near the rotating table 52. A second slide rail 611 for limiting is fixed on the upper end face of the base 61.

[0059] The top of the base 61 is provided with a stop block 63 that can move closer to or further away from the pipe fitting, and the stop block 63 slides in cooperation with the second slide rail 611.

[0060] As the stop block 63 slides along the second slide rail 611, one side of the stop block 63 gradually approaches the surface of the pipe fitting until one side of the stop block 63 contacts the surface of the pipe fitting, thus limiting the pipe fitting. This effectively prevents the pipe fitting from deforming near the bending point during the bending process.

[0061] See Figure 7 As shown, a second hydraulic telescopic component 62 for driving the stop block 63 to slide along the second slide rail 611 is fixed at one end of the upper surface of the base 61 near the second slide rail 611.

[0062] By fixing the stop block 63 to the output end of the second hydraulic telescopic member 62, when the output end of the second hydraulic telescopic member 62 extends or retracts, the second hydraulic telescopic member 62 can drive the stop block 63 to slide along the second slide rail 611.

[0063] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
