Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigeration system technology, and in particular to a refrigeration capillary welding structure with adjustable welding insertion depth. Background Technology
[0002] In cold storage refrigeration systems, the precise control of the insertion depth of the capillary tube's welded structure is crucial, directly affecting the refrigerant's flow characteristics and system efficiency. By appropriately controlling the insertion depth, the sealing and strength of the connection between the capillary tube and the piping can be ensured, preventing leaks or abnormal flow resistance caused by excessively deep or shallow welds. An appropriate insertion depth helps create a stable transition zone, reducing refrigerant turbulence and pressure loss at the connection point, thereby maintaining the designed flow rate and pressure drop parameters. Furthermore, depth control prevents deformation or blockage of the capillary tube end during welding, ensuring the accuracy of its throttling function. Consistent insertion depth during welding also facilitates automated production, improving process reliability. Ultimately, this control method optimizes the matching between the capillary tube and the system, extends component life, and provides a fundamental guarantee for the stable operation of the refrigeration system.
[0003] The existing refrigeration capillary welding structure has two shortcomings: firstly, it cannot adjust the welding insertion depth according to requirements; secondly, it cannot perform pre-expansion treatment on the opposing capillary tubes before welding. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and improve the existing refrigeration capillary welding structure. Summary of the Invention

[0025] In this embodiment, the lifting tube expanding assembly 3 includes a lifting push rod 301, an upper lead screw drive mechanism, an upper movable carrier plate 307, a reamer 308, and a flipping mechanism. The upper lead screw drive mechanism is installed at the movable end of the lifting push rod 301. The upper movable carrier plate 307 is driven to move by the upper lead screw drive mechanism. The reamer 308 is movably supported at the lower part of the upper movable carrier plate 307. A flipping mechanism for driving the reamer 308 to rotate around its own axis is installed at the middle part of the upper movable carrier plate 307.
[0026] In this embodiment, the upper lead screw drive mechanism includes a channel plate 302, a vertical guide rod 303, an upper lead screw motor 304, an upper lead screw 305, and an upper guide rod 306. A vertical guide rod 303 penetrating the frame 1 is fixed to the outer side of the web of the channel plate 302. The upper lead screw motor 304 is installed on the outer side of the channel plate 302. The output end of the upper lead screw motor 304 is connected to the upper lead screw 305. The upper guide rod 306 is fixed between the two side plates of the channel plate 302. An upper movable carrier plate 307 is sleeved on the outer side of the upper lead screw 305 and the upper guide rod 306.
[0027] In this embodiment, the upper movable carrier plate 307 has a second lead screw hole that cooperates with the upper lead screw 305 and a second guide hole that cooperates with the upper guide rod 306.

[0028] In this embodiment, the flipping mechanism includes a flipping motor 310 and an anti-slip belt drive 311. The output shaft of the flipping motor 310 is connected to the central convex shaft of the hole expander 308 via the anti-slip belt drive 311.
[0029] In this embodiment, a controller is also included, which is connected to the welding clamping assembly 2 and the lifting tube expansion assembly 3 respectively.
[0030] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: Clamping the capillary tube: The capillary tube 4 to be welded is placed on the clamping mechanism of the welding clamping assembly 2. The lower lead screw motor 201 is started, driving the lower lead screw 202 to rotate. Since the lower lead screw 202 has two lead screw sections 203 with opposite directions of rotation, the two lower movable carrier plates 205 move towards each other along the lead screw sections 203 under the guidance of the lower guide rod 204 until the two clamping mechanisms approach and clamp the capillary tube 4. The specific clamping process is as follows: the fastening screw 206 is rotated, and the inner end of the fastening screw 206 cooperates with the anti-detachment groove on the outer side of the arc plate 207c, pushing the arc plate 207c to move inward. The flexible pressure pad 207e on the inner side of the arc plate 207c presses the capillary tube 4 to achieve reliable clamping. At the same time, the slider 207a slides in the slide groove 209 to play a guiding role.
[0031] Pre-expansion treatment: The controller controls the lifting push rod 301 to lower the upper lead screw drive mechanism to a suitable position. The upper lead screw motor 304 starts, driving the upper lead screw 305 to rotate. Under the guidance of the upper guide rod 306, the upper movable carrier plate 307 moves along the upper lead screw 305, driving the expander 308 to move towards the capillary end that needs expansion. The tilting motor 310 starts, driving the expander 308 to rotate around its own axis through the anti-slip belt transmission component 311, performing expansion treatment on the capillary end. The limiting tube 309 and its inwardly inclined segmented plates at its outer end play a limiting and auxiliary role in expansion. The segmented plates can automatically return to their original shape after deformation during unloading.
[0032] Adjusting the insertion depth and welding: According to the welding requirements, the position of the upper movable carrier plate 307 is precisely adjusted through the upper lead screw drive mechanism, thereby adjusting the position of the expander 308. This controls the relative position of the expanded capillary tube and another capillary tube, achieving precise control of the welding insertion depth. After adjusting the insertion depth, the welding operation is performed to complete the welding of the refrigeration capillary tube. Throughout the process, the controller is connected to the welding clamping assembly 2 and the lifting expander assembly 3 respectively, achieving precise control of each component.
