[0019] 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.

[0020] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the expansion ring provided by existing technology, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the workpiece 1 to be processed in the prior art, namely the expansion ring, is a ring structure with an opening, and both ends of the opening are bent inward to form a bent portion 101. The prior art processing method for the expansion ring is usually to first cut one end of the ring from the spiral steel wire, and then process it by scribe and then by fitter. However, this method is difficult to process, has poor forming quality, and seriously affects processing efficiency.

[0021] To address the problems of high difficulty and low efficiency in bending workpieces in existing technologies, this utility model provides a bending fixture. Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of the bending tooling provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the bending fixture includes: a positioning plate 2, which has a first limiting ring 3 and a second limiting ring 4; the diameter of the first limiting ring 3 is smaller than the diameter of the second limiting ring 4, and the space between the first limiting ring 3 and the second limiting ring 4 is used to fix the workpiece to be processed; the first limiting member has an opening corresponding to the opening of the workpiece to be processed; the positioning plate 2 is also provided with a bending member 5, which is located inside the first limiting ring 3 and is used to bend the opening of the workpiece to be processed.

[0022] The positioning plate 2 is rectangular in shape, making it easy to clamp onto a bench vise.

[0023] The first limiting ring 3 is disposed on the positioning plate 2. The outermost diameter of the first limiting ring 3 should be consistent with the inner dimensions of the workpiece to be processed. The first limiting ring 3 is detachably connected to the positioning plate 2. The first limiting ring 3 is also provided with an opening corresponding to the workpiece to be processed, which allows the annular steel wire to be bent relative to the two ends of the opening to form the opening of the workpiece.

[0024] The second limiting ring 4 is located on the positioning plate 2, outside the first limiting ring 3. The inner diameter of the second limiting ring 4 should be consistent with the outer dimensions of the workpiece to be processed.

[0025] An annular space is formed between the first limiting ring 3 and the second limiting ring 4 for clamping the workpiece to be processed, and the size of the annular space is consistent with the size of the workpiece to be processed.

[0026] Since the workpiece to be processed still has a bending requirement at the opening, a bending part 5 is provided inside the first limiting ring 3. When bending is performed through the first limiting ring 3, the bending is marked as successful when the bent part reaches the position of the bending part 5.

[0027] As an optional implementation, the first limiting ring 3 includes first positioning members evenly distributed along the circumference; the positioning plate 2 has first positioning holes corresponding to each first positioning member.

[0028] The first limiting ring 3 includes multiple first positioning elements, which are evenly distributed on the circumference of the first limiting ring 3. The positioning plate 2 has multiple first positioning holes on the same circumference, which correspond one-to-one with the multiple first positioning elements. The first positioning elements are detachably connected to the first positioning holes.

[0029] As an optional implementation, the first positioning hole is a through hole; the first positioning element is a positioning pin.

[0030] The first limiting ring 3 includes multiple positioning pins, which are evenly distributed on the circumference of the first limiting ring 3, and each positioning pin is located in a corresponding through hole.

[0031] As an optional implementation, the second limiting ring 4 includes second positioning elements evenly distributed along the circumference; the positioning plate 2 has second positioning holes corresponding to each second positioning element.

[0032] The second limiting ring 4 includes multiple second positioning elements, which are evenly distributed on the circumference of the second limiting ring 4. The positioning plate 2 has multiple second positioning holes on the same circumference, which correspond one-to-one with the multiple second positioning elements. The second positioning elements and the second positioning holes are detachably connected.

[0033] As an optional implementation, the second positioning hole is a threaded hole; the second positioning element is a screw.

[0034] The second limiting ring 4 includes multiple screws, which are evenly distributed on the circumference of the second limiting ring 4, and each screw is threadedly connected to the corresponding threaded hole.

[0035] When installing the workpiece to be processed, first place the workpiece outside the first limiting ring 3, and then install the second limiting ring 4 to fix the workpiece to be processed.

[0036] As an optional implementation, the positioning plate 2 has multiple sets of third positioning holes corresponding to the bent part 5, and each set of third positioning holes corresponds to a workpiece of a certain size.

[0037] Multiple sets of third positioning holes are provided on the positioning hole. The position of the third positioning hole is determined according to the workpiece with different bending requirements. When bending a certain type of workpiece, the corresponding third positioning hole can be selected to install the bending part 5 to meet the specific bending requirements.

[0038] As an optional implementation, the first positioning member includes a bent positioning member 301 for an open bend, and the relative position of the bent positioning member 301 and the bent member 5 is set according to the bending requirements of the workpiece to be processed.

[0039] The bent positioning component 301 in the first positioning component is the positioning component at both ends of the opening of the first limiting ring 3. These two bent positioning components 301 are used to bend the opening of the workpiece to be processed. The relative position of the bent positioning component 301 and the bent component 5 should correspond to the size of the bent part of the workpiece to be processed.

[0040] As an optional implementation, there are two bending members 5, each corresponding to the open bending portion of the workpiece to be processed.

[0041] This utility model embodiment provides a bending method, which uses the above-mentioned bending fixture to perform bending, including:

[0042] S1. Cut the ring that has been shaped by the turning process to obtain the workpiece to be processed;

[0043] The machining process involves winding the wire into a spiral shape. Before bending, the wire needs to be cut to the appropriate length to serve as the workpiece. The length of the workpiece to be processed should be greater than the length of the finished workpiece to allow for subsequent adjustments.

[0044] S2. Clamp the positioning plate in the vise;

[0045] Clamp the positioning plate onto the vise to ensure a stable clamping state.

[0046] S3. Place the workpiece to be processed outside the first limit ring, and leave the same allowance at both ends of the opening, and install the second limit ring in place;

[0047] Place the workpiece to be processed outside the first limiting ring, leaving the same allowance at both ends of the opening, and then install the second limiting ring in place to fix the workpiece to be processed.

[0048] S4. Use a bending rod to bend one side of the opening of the workpiece to be processed toward the bending part on the same side, and then bend the other side of the opening toward the bending part on the same side.

[0049] Use a bent rod to first complete the bend at one open end, and then complete the bend at the other open end.

[0050] S5. Remove the positioning plate from the vise, rotate it 90° and place it on the platform. Use a height ruler to draw the height dimension of the opening of the workpiece to be processed.

[0051] Remove the positioning plate from the bench vise, rotate it 90 degrees and place it on the platform. Use a height gauge to mark the height dimension of the opening of the part.

[0052] S6. Remove the second limit ring, take out the workpiece to be processed, and level the workpiece to obtain the shaped workpiece.

[0053] After removing the second limit ring (and the first limit ring if necessary), remove the workpiece to be processed, and use a hammer to level the bent part to ensure that the flatness of the front and back sides of the part is ≤0.2mm.

[0054] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects: it avoids the inconvenience of bending the workpiece after scribing, limits the workpiece to be processed by the limiting ring, and ensures that the workpiece will not deform during the bending process, thereby improving bending efficiency, ease of operation and the forming quality of the workpiece.
