Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corrugated pipe technology, and in particular to a guiding device for heat treatment processing of corrugated pipes. Background Technology

[0002] To increase toughness, metal corrugated pipes need to undergo heat treatment. After being heated in the heat treatment module, they extend from the outlet. Since the metal corrugated pipe softens after heating, a guide wheel is usually installed at the outlet to prevent deformation during transportation. The guide wheel rotates as the corrugated pipe extends, providing support and guidance.

[0003] Because the heat treatment module can process bellows of various sizes, the guide wheels need to be replaced according to the bellows size. Only a suitable guide wheel can provide the corresponding support and guidance without damaging the shape of the bellows. However, guide wheels are generally installed on the production line via bearings, which involves cumbersome disassembly. Furthermore, after replacing the guide wheels, the installation height needs to be adjusted to ensure contact between the guide wheels and the bellows, thus increasing the disassembly and assembly steps and raising the installation difficulty. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a guiding device for heat treatment of bellows to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A guiding device for heat treatment of corrugated pipes includes a worktable and a guiding assembly mounted on the worktable. The guiding assembly includes a guide wheel and a water tank. The guide wheel is rotatably mounted above the worktable surface and is vertically positioned above the worktable. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the arc-shaped edge of the guide wheel, and multiple mating blocks are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove. A slot is formed on the worktable surface, and the water tank is inserted into the slot, positioned below the guide wheel.

[0015] like Figure 1-3The diagram illustrates a guiding device for heat treatment of corrugated pipes, comprising a worktable 1 and a guiding assembly mounted on the worktable 1. The guiding assembly includes a guide wheel 2 and a water tank 10. The guide wheel 2 is rotatably mounted above the worktable 1, and is vertically positioned above the worktable 1. A circular groove is formed on the arc-shaped edge of the guide wheel 2, and multiple mating blocks are fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the groove. A slot is formed on the worktable 1, and the water tank 10 is inserted into the slot, positioned below the guide wheel 2. An extension plate is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the water tank 10, and a bolt 9 is threaded onto one end of the extension plate. A threaded hole is formed on the worktable 1, and one end of the bolt 9 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the worktable 1. A handle 4 is fixedly mounted on one outer wall of the guide wheel 2, and an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe are mounted on the bottom outer wall of the water tank 10.

[0016] A motor 11 is movably mounted on the surface of the workbench 1. A mounting tube 3 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor 11. A hole is opened at the center of the guide wheel 2, and the guide wheel 2 is fitted onto the mounting tube 3 through the hole. Multiple protrusions are fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the mounting tube 3. Multiple sliding grooves are opened on the inner wall of the hole at the center of the guide wheel 2. The mounting positions of the protrusions on the mounting block 3 correspond to the sliding grooves on the center hole of the guide wheel 2.

[0017] A motor 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the workbench 1. A screw 5 is installed on the surface of the workbench 1. The output end of the motor 8 passes through the workbench 1 and is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the screw 5. A fixing rod 6 is provided on one side of the screw 5 and is fixedly installed on the surface of the workbench 1. The lifting and lowering movement of the motor 11 is driven by the screw 5. A slider 7 is threaded onto the outer wall of the screw 5. One end of the slider 7 is sleeved on the fixing rod 6. A cylinder 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the slider 7, and the motor 11 is fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 12.

[0018] Example: The workbench 1 is fixedly installed at the discharge end of the corrugated pipe heat treatment mechanism. The heat-treated corrugated pipe extends from the discharge end and passes through the guide wheel 2. The guide wheel 2 supports the heated and softened corrugated pipe. Multiple mating blocks on the guide wheel 2 are adapted to the corrugated grooves of the corrugated pipe. After the motor 11 rotates, the guide wheel 2 guides and transports the corrugated pipe. At the same time, the mating blocks continuously engage with the grooves on the outer wall of the corrugated pipe, which helps to make the grooves of the corrugated pipe clearer and prevents the surface from melting due to heat treatment, making the grooves less obvious. The heat treatment mechanism can process corrugated pipes of multiple sizes. The guide wheel 2 is replaceable. According to the size of the corrugated pipe to be processed, the corresponding guide wheel 2 is replaced to ensure that the groove size of the guide wheel 2 is adapted to the corrugated pipe. The connection between the guide wheel 2 and the mounting pipe 3 is plug-in type, which is easy to disassemble and assemble. The operator can remove the guide wheel 2 by holding the handle 4 while wearing heat-resistant gloves. Because the heated bellows will conduct high-temperature heat to the guide wheel 2, the handle 4 can provide a convenient gripping position for taking the wheel.

[0019] Motor 8 drives screw 5 to rotate, screw 5 drives slider 7 to move up and down. Slider 7 moves guided by fixed rod 6, slider 7 drives cylinder 12, cylinder 12 drives motor 11, motor 11 drives mounting pipe 3, so that after replacing guide wheel 2, the position of mounting pipe 3 can be adjusted in time by cylinder 12 and screw 5 to ensure that the position of guide wheel 2 corresponds to the corrugated pipe. During the rotation of guide wheel 2, the cooling water inside water tank 10 is constantly replaced. The outlet and inlet are connected to the external water pump pipeline. The top position of water tank 10 is adjusted by bolt 9 to ensure that water tank 10 is in contact with the bottom surface of the groove of guide wheel 2. The heat of guide wheel 2 is conducted to water tank 10, and water tank 10 conducts the heat to cooling water, thereby cooling guide wheel 2. The external water pump will draw cooling water from inside water tank 10 for replacement. This ensures that the cooling water inside water tank 10 can always cool guide wheel 2.

[0020] It should be noted that the parts not covered in this utility model are the same as or can be implemented using existing technology; the various drives in this utility model can be implemented by corresponding power structures such as cylinders, oil cylinders, electric cylinders, and motors in conjunction with connecting rods, guide rods, etc., and are not limited to the structures described in the specification and the drawings.
