Detailed Implementation

[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] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a mold for flaring an automotive exhaust pipe, which mainly consists of a base plate 1, on which a first support platform 2 and a second support platform 3 are provided. The first support platform 2 is specially designed with a lower clamping groove 4 for fixing specific parts of the exhaust pipe.

[0021] On the second support platform 3, this mold is designed with a vertical elbow clamp 5 for precise positioning and clamping of the exhaust pipe. A triangular seat 6 is also provided on the base plate 1, and a first hydraulic cylinder 7 is hinged to the triangular seat 6. The drive end of the first hydraulic cylinder 7 is hinged to the lever of the vertical elbow clamp 5. Thus, when the hydraulic cylinder 7 operates, it can drive the clamping head of the vertical elbow clamp 5 to move longitudinally, thereby clamping or releasing the exhaust pipe.

[0022] To further ensure the stability and accuracy of the exhaust pipe, a lower pressure plate 8 is specially designed at the lower end of the clamping head of the vertical elbow clamp 5. An upper clamping groove 9 is provided on the lower side of the lower pressure plate 8, and the positions of the upper clamping groove 9 and the lower clamping groove 4 correspond. In this way, the exhaust pipe to be flared can be clamped between the upper clamping groove 9 and the lower clamping groove 4, ensuring that the position of the exhaust pipe remains fixed during the flaring process, thus improving the accuracy and efficiency of the flaring.

[0023] In addition, a bracket 10 is provided on the base plate 1, and a second hydraulic cylinder 11 is mounted on the bracket 10. The drive shaft end of the second hydraulic cylinder 11 is specially designed with a flaring nozzle 12 for flaring the exhaust pipe. Through the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder 11, the flaring nozzle 12 can precisely flare the exhaust pipe, ensuring that the flaring size and shape of the exhaust pipe meet the design requirements.

[0024] Specifically, in this design, there are two second support platforms 3, and correspondingly, there are also two vertical elbow clamps 5, triangular seats 6, and first hydraulic cylinders 7. These components are designed in a one-to-one correspondence to ensure the coordination and functionality of the entire structure.

[0025] Specifically, an X-axis moving stage 13 is specially designed between the bracket 10 and the base plate 1. The bracket 10 is cleverly placed above the X-axis moving stage 13, while the X-axis moving stage 13 is stably set on the surface of the base plate 1.

[0026] To elaborate further, the X-axis moving stage 13 includes auxiliary slide rails 14 designed to support sliding motion. Support seats 15 are provided on these auxiliary slide rails 14 to support and carry related components. Specifically, the drive shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder 11 is designed to pass through and be fixed inside the support seat 15, thereby ensuring the stability and precise control of the drive shaft.

[0027] Working principle: When this utility model is in operation, the base plate 1 serves as the basic structure of the mold, supporting the other parts of the entire mold.

[0028] The first support platform 2 and the second support platform 3 are respectively set on the base plate 1 and are used to fix and support other parts of the mold.

[0029] The lower clamping groove 4 is located on the first support platform 2 and is used to position and fix the exhaust pipe to be processed.

[0030] The vertical elbow clamp 5 is mounted on the second support platform 3. The drive end of the first hydraulic cylinder 7 is hinged to the lever of the vertical elbow clamp 5, so as to realize the longitudinal movement of the clamping head of the vertical elbow clamp 5 in order to clamp or release the exhaust pipe.

[0031] The triangular seat 6 is fixed on the base plate 1 and hinged to the first hydraulic cylinder 7, so that the extension and retraction action of the hydraulic cylinder can be converted into the up and down movement of the vertical elbow clamp 5.

[0032] The lower pressure plate 8 is located at the lower end of the vertical elbow clamp 5, and its lower side is provided with an upper clamping groove 9, which corresponds to the lower clamping groove 4, for clamping the exhaust pipe.

[0033] The bracket 10 is fixed on the base plate 1 and is used to install the second hydraulic cylinder 11.

[0034] The second hydraulic cylinder 11 is mounted on the bracket 10, and its drive shaft end is provided with a flaring head 12 for flaring the exhaust pipe.

[0035] An X-axis moving stage 13 is provided between the bracket 10 and the base plate 1, so that the second hydraulic cylinder 11 can move along the X-axis direction to achieve precise control of the position of the exhaust pipe flare.

[0036] An auxiliary slide rail 14 is provided on the X-axis moving stage 13, and a support seat 15 slides on the slide rail. The drive shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder 11 passes through the support seat 15. The design of the auxiliary slide rail 14 and the support seat 15 ensures that the flaring head 12 is pushed more smoothly during the process, thereby improving the flaring efficiency.

[0037] With the above structure, the mold can achieve precise clamping and flaring of automobile exhaust pipes.
