Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of thin-walled structure annealing fixtures, specifically to a high-nickel material exhaust pipe annealing anti-deformation support fixture. Background Technology

[0002] When manufacturing exhaust pipes made of high-nickel materials, it is necessary to minimize negative weight due to the thin-walled, low-rigidity structure of the exhaust pipe. According to overall requirements, annealing is required after welding the metal exhaust pipe to ensure the internal forming quality of the weld.

[0003] During this process, the external parts will shrink and deform during welding, and the welding stress and cylinder spinning stress will be released outward during shell annealing, which will cause the shell cylinder to deform, ultimately resulting in the metal shell cylinder roundness failing to meet the product precision requirements.

[0004] The existing process mainly uses stress-relief annealing before annealing and sand filling in the tube during annealing to prevent workpiece deformation. However, this method requires a long heat treatment time because the sand absorbs a lot of heat, resulting in significant pollution and slow workpiece clamping speed. In view of this, the applicant proposes a tooling to prevent annealing deformation, which can not only achieve rapid clamping but also effectively shorten the heat treatment process time. Utility Model Content

[0015] Furthermore, the sliding sleeve includes a first hinge position, a sleeve body, and a sliding groove. The sleeve body is slidably sleeved on the mounting shaft, and a plurality of the sliding grooves are provided on the outer side of the sleeve body along the circumferential direction.

[0016] The hinged hoop passes through the slide groove and is hinged to the other end of the connecting rod. The end of the slide groove is provided with a first hinge position, which is hinged to the first end of the support rod.

[0017] Furthermore, the hinge clamp includes a second hinge position and a sleeve clamp, the sleeve clamp is engaged in the slot, and a plurality of second hinge positions are provided on the outside of the sleeve clamp, with each second hinge position passing through the corresponding slide groove and hinged to the other end of the connecting rod.

[0032] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-6 This utility model discloses a high-nickel material exhaust pipe annealing anti-deformation support fixture for quickly supporting the exhaust pipe. It includes a support block 1, support members 3, and anti-loosening nuts 5. A positioning shaft 6 is rotatably mounted on the top of the support block 2. Several support members 3 are sleeved on the positioning shaft 6, connected end-to-end, and can unfold within the exhaust pipe 4 to support the exhaust pipe 4 and prevent deformation. Several hinge clamps 7 are engaged with the positioning shaft 6, each hinge clamp being fixedly hinged to its corresponding support member 3, thus limiting the position of the fixed support member 3. Furthermore, since the end of the positioning shaft 6 is threaded with an anti-loosening nut 5, the end of the anti-loosening nut 5 abuts against the adjacent support member 3. Because the several support members 3 abut end-to-end on the positioning shaft 6, rotating the anti-loosening nut 5 simultaneously pushes the several support members to unfold, allowing each unfolded support member 3 to abut against the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 4.

[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 The bottom of the support 2 is provided with a pillow block 1, which is made of cast iron and has good heat resistance and stability. The pillow block 1 is provided with multiple limiting grooves, which abut against the integrally formed frame 21 to limit the support 2. The support 2 includes an integrally formed frame 21 and a rotary joint 22. Two rotary joints 22 are installed at both ends of the support rod 31. Two integrally formed frames 21 are rotatably mounted on the rotary joints 22. The bottom of the integrally formed frame 21 is snapped and fixed to the pillow block 1. In this embodiment, the two integrally formed frames 21 and the rotary joints 22 form a scissor mechanism, and the pillow block 1 is used to adjust the posture of the support 2. By embedding the integrally formed frame 21 into different limiting grooves, the height of the support 2 can be adjusted.

[0034] In one specific embodiment disclosed in this utility model, such as Figure 5 The positioning shaft 6 includes a mounting shaft 61, a slot 62, and a self-locking thread 63. The anti-loosening nut 5 and the self-locking thread 63 form a threaded pair. Rotating the anti-loosening nut 5 allows it to be screwed in to push the support member 3. The self-locking thread 63 is located at the tail of the mounting shaft 61. Several slots 62 are evenly distributed on the outside of the mounting shaft 61. A hinge clamp 7 is engaged in the slots 62, and the hinge clamp 7 is hinged to several support members 3.

[0035] In this embodiment, optionally, the mounting shaft 61 is formed by connecting several identical short shafts end to end, and can be disassembled. The connection position is on the slot 62, which facilitates tooling storage and allows for free assembly according to the length of the exhaust pipe 4.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 The hinge 7 includes a second hinge position 71 and a sleeve 72. The sleeve 72 is engaged within the slot 62, and several second hinge positions 71 are provided on the outside of the sleeve 72. Each second hinge position 71 passes through a corresponding slide groove 333 and is hinged to the other end of the connecting rod 32. In this embodiment, the second hinge position 71 and the corresponding slide groove 333 form a guide pair, which is used to drive the support member 3z to unfold.

[0037] Based on the previous embodiment, such as Figure 6 The support member 3 includes a support rod 31 and a sliding sleeve 33. The tail end of the support rod 31 is hinged to the guard plate 34, and the middle part is hinged to one end of the connecting rod 32. The other end of the connecting rod 32 is hinged to the second hinge position 71 of the hinge hoop 7. The other end of the support rod 31 is hinged to the outside of the sliding sleeve 33, and the sliding sleeve 33 is slidably fitted on the mounting shaft 61.

[0038] In this embodiment, the sliding sleeve 33 includes a first hinge position 331, a sleeve body 332, and a sliding groove 333. The sleeve body 332 is slidably provided on the mounting shaft 61. A plurality of sliding grooves 333 are provided on the outer side of the sleeve body 332 along the circumferential direction. The hinge clamp 7 passes through the sliding groove 333 and is hinged to the other end of the connecting rod 32. The end of the sliding groove 333 is provided with a first hinge position 331, which is hinged to the first end of the support rod 31. When the sleeve body 332 slides along the mounting shaft 61, the support rod 31 can be extended outward, thereby driving the guard plate 34 to abut against the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 4.

[0039] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
