Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of four-way pipe processing technology, and in particular to a tapping mechanism for a four-way pipe production equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of four-way pipe processing, tapping operations require precise positioning and fixation of the pipe fitting to ensure processing accuracy and stability. Current four-way pipe tapping equipment often suffers from poor positioning adaptability, being mostly designed for fixed pipe diameters and unable to accommodate pipe fittings of different specifications. Changing the processing object requires frequent adjustments to the positioning structure, making the operation cumbersome and inefficient. Simultaneously, some equipment lacks positioning stability. Four-way pipes have a multi-port structure, and existing clamping components are prone to misalignment of the port axes, causing the pipe fitting to wobble during tapping and affecting the thread quality. To solve these adaptability and stability problems, there is an urgent need to develop a four-way pipe tapping mechanism that is compatible with multiple pipe diameters and offers precise positioning, thereby improving processing flexibility and accuracy.
[0003] The prior art patent announcement number CN213729804U discloses a tapping mechanism for a four-way pipe production equipment, including a cabinet, a displacement mechanism, and a locking mechanism. The displacement mechanism includes a fixed base, a movable seat, a threaded groove, a threaded rod, a rotating wheel, a fixed claw, a sliding groove, and a fixed pin. The locking mechanism includes a rotating rod, a threaded sleeve, and a clamping plate. In this scheme, the rotating rod is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve at its bottom end, which serves to fix the rotating rod and facilitate its rotation. The four claws of the fixed claw are all glued with anti-slip sleeves, which ensure that the four-way pipe can be firmly clamped onto the claws of the fixed claw for easy and quick replacement. The threaded groove is located at the right end of the inner cavity of the movable seat, and a threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner cavity of the threaded groove. The end of the threaded rod away from the threaded groove is fixedly connected to a rotating wheel, which, when the rotating wheel is turned, drives the threaded rod to rotate into the threaded groove, causing the movable seat to move closer to or away from the fixed base.
[0004] Existing technology uses a combination of displacement and locking mechanisms to clamp and fix four-way pipes. However, this equipment is structurally complex in practical use and inconvenient for four-way pipes of different diameters. It also lacks automatic pipe end positioning mechanisms, which not only increases maintenance costs but also makes pipe positioning and fixing inconvenient, affecting tapping accuracy. Therefore, we propose a tapping mechanism for four-way pipe production equipment that solves the problems of poor applicability and inconvenience in automatically aligning the end to the center, improving ease of use and enhancing the processing accuracy and efficiency of the four-way pipes. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a tapping mechanism for a four-way tapping production equipment, which solves the problems of poor applicability of existing equipment and inconvenience in automatically aligning the port center position as mentioned in the background art.

[0014] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0015] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a tapping mechanism for a four-way pipe production equipment, including a platform 1, a first conical positioning platform 2 fixedly installed at the center of the top surface of the platform 1, a four-way pipe body 3 fitted on the top of the first conical positioning platform 2, a left clamping component 4 and a right clamping component 5 fixedly installed at the top of the left and right ends of the platform 1, the left clamping component 4 and the right clamping component 5 are horizontally symmetrically distributed about the first conical positioning platform 2, and the left clamping component 4 and the right clamping component 5 have the same structure.
[0016] The left clamping assembly 4 includes a first gantry frame 6, inside which a first lifting block 7 is slidably mounted vertically. A first horizontal threaded rod 8 is threaded through and connected to the first lifting block 7. The end of the first horizontal threaded rod 8 near the first conical positioning platform 2 is rotatably connected to a second conical positioning platform 9 via a bearing seat. A first sliding groove 10 is provided on the inner wall of the first gantry frame. The two sides of the first lifting block 7 are slidably connected to the first sliding groove 10 vertically. A first rotating wheel 11 is fixedly provided at the end of the first horizontal threaded rod 8 away from the second conical positioning platform 9. A first vertical threaded rod 12 is rotatably connected to the top center of the first lifting block 7 via a bearing seat. The top of the first vertical threaded rod 12 passes through the first gantry frame and is threadedly connected to the first gantry frame.
[0017] In use, the four-way pipe body 3 is first initially positioned on the first conical positioning platform 2 of the shelf 1. The first vertical threaded rod 12 of the left clamping assembly 4 is rotated to make the first lifting block 7 slide up and down along the first sliding groove 10 of the first portal frame 6 to adjust to a suitable height. Then, the first rotating wheel 11 is rotated to drive the first horizontal threaded rod 8 to rotate, pushing the second conical positioning platform 9 closer to and clamping the four-way pipe body 3, realizing the stable positioning of the left end and bottom end of the four-way pipe body 3, and preparing for the tapping process.
[0018] The right clamping assembly 5 includes a second gantry 13. A second slide groove 14 is provided on the inner wall of the second gantry 13. A second lifting block 15 is slidably installed inside the second slide groove 14. A second horizontal threaded rod 16 is threaded through and threaded into the second lifting block 15. A third conical positioning platform 17 is rotatably connected to the end of the second horizontal threaded rod 16 near the first conical positioning platform 2 through a bearing seat. A second rotating wheel 18 is fixedly installed at the end of the second horizontal threaded rod 16 away from the third conical positioning platform 17. A second vertical threaded rod 19 is rotatably connected to the top center of the second lifting block 15 through a bearing seat. The top of the second vertical threaded rod 19 passes through the second gantry 13 and is threadedly connected to the second gantry 13. A hydraulic lifting rod 20 is fixedly installed on one side of the platform 1. A tapping machine 21 is fixedly installed at the top of the hydraulic lifting rod 20. The first conical positioning platform 2 is fixed on the top surface of the platform 1 directly below the tapping machine 21.
[0019] In use, the right clamping assembly 5 adjusts the second lifting block 15 to move up and down along the second slide groove 14 via the second vertical threaded rod 19, and works with the second horizontal threaded rod 16 and the third conical positioning table 17 to complete the right-side clamping. During processing, the hydraulic lifting rod 20 on one side of the platform 1 is activated, which drives the tapping machine 21 to descend precisely and perform tapping operation on the four-way pipe body 3 located directly above the first conical positioning table 2 and clamped by the left and right conical positioning tables to ensure processing accuracy.
[0020] Working principle: First, the first conical positioning platform 2, which is fixedly installed on the top surface of the platform 1, allows one end of the four-way pipe to be inserted into the first conical positioning platform 2, making the four-way pipe vertical. At the same time, it also serves to automatically find the center position. Then, by rotating the first vertical threaded rod 12, the first lifting block 7 is driven to move up and down along the first sliding groove 10, so that the axis of the second conical positioning platform 9 is aligned with the horizontal axis of the two horizontal ends of the four-way pipe body 3. Then, by rotating the first rotating wheel 11, the first horizontal threaded rod 8 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the second conical positioning platform 9 to be inserted into the left horizontal end of the four-way pipe body 3. In the same way, the third conical positioning platform 17 is inserted into the right horizontal end of the four-way pipe body 3, realizing the locking and fixing effect of the left, right and bottom ends of the four-way pipe body 3, so that the pipe body remains stable when the tapping machine 21 performs tapping operation on its top end, ensuring processing accuracy. The conical structure design of the first conical positioning platform 2, the second conical positioning platform 9, and the third conical positioning platform 17 makes the equipment suitable for fixing four-way pipes of different diameters, thus improving the flexibility of the equipment.

Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
