Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of semi-automatic silicone hose assembly technology, and in particular to a semi-automatic silicone hose crimping device. Background Technology

[0002] Silicone hoses, as a common flexible piping material, are widely used in chemical, petroleum, and marine engineering fields. These products not only need good flexibility to adapt to complex working conditions, but also require strong pressure resistance and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term stable operation. Currently, automotive external air intake heads are assembled manually when connected to rigid connectors; the left hand holds the hose, the right hand holds the rigid air intake head, and then the two ends are aligned and rotated while being inserted, a slow process that significantly impacts production efficiency.

[0003] Because the rigid suction head is stiff and its connection to the silicone hose is an interference fit, the operator needs to grip the head firmly and rotate it while inserting it. This puts considerable force on the fingers and arms, increasing worker fatigue and is not ergonomic.

[0004] Therefore, a semi-automatic silicone hose crimping device is still needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a semi-automatic silicone hose crimping device to solve the above-mentioned problems.

The sliding module has a fixed locking position. When the rigid tube head is located in the fixed locking position, the insertion tube and the protruding part of the flexible tube are coaxially arranged. The driving component is used to drive the insertion tube and the flexible tube to connect.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the sliding module is slidably connected to a slide rail, which guides the sliding module to move in a straight line, and the top is connected to a limiting clamp, which is used to clamp the rigid tube head in the fixed clamping position.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing slot on the sliding module is a groove formed on the sliding module, and the shape of the groove is similar to the shape of the lower half of the rigid tube head, so that the rigid tube head can be vertically inserted into the groove.

[0009] Preferably, the hose fixing module includes an upper mold, a lower mold, and a drive cylinder. The drive cylinder is connected to the frame, and the moving end of the drive cylinder is connected to the upper mold. The upper mold and the lower mold are combined to form a positioning hole. The positioning hole is divided into an expansion section and a tightening section along the hole axis. The diameter of the expansion section is larger than the diameter of the tightening section.

[0010] Preferably, the system further includes a control system, which includes a pilot-operated solenoid valve, a time-delay relay, and a time display. The time-delay relay is electrically connected to the pilot-operated solenoid valve and the time display, respectively. The pilot-operated solenoid valve is used to control the start and stop of the drive cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, the moving direction of the upper mold relative to the lower mold is perpendicular to the moving direction of the horizontal moving module, and the diameter of the tightening section is smaller than the diameter of the hose.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model include at least the following: By setting up a hose fixing module that can move vertically, the main body of the hose is fixed and supported by upper and lower molds.

[0015] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more comprehensive and complete, and to fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and therefore repeated descriptions of them will be omitted.

[0016] The terms used to describe position and direction in this utility model are illustrated with the accompanying drawings, but changes can be made as needed, and all such changes are included within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a semi-automatic silicone hose crimping device, comprising a base 1, a hose fixing module 2, and a horizontal moving module 3. The hose fixing module 2 can clamp and fix the middle section of the hose and allow part of the hose end to protrude. The horizontal moving module 3 includes a sliding module 31 and a driving component 32. The sliding module 31 has a fixing slot 311. When the rigid tube head is located in the fixing slot 311, the insertion tube of the rigid tube head and the protruding part of the hose are coaxially arranged. The driving component 32 is used to drive the insertion tube and the hose to connect. The base 1 is a main base plate placed on a workbench. The hose fixing module 2 is located on one side of the horizontal moving module 3. When working, the horizontal moving module 3 fixes the rigid tube head and transports the rigid tube head laterally in the direction of horizontal movement until the interface of the rigid tube head and one end of the hose are automatically connected. This improves work efficiency, reduces the labor intensity of workers, and ensures that the interface of the rigid tube head is evenly stressed when the hose is inserted, and will not swing with manual movement.

[0018] Preferably, the bottom of the sliding module 31 is slidably connected to a slide rail 33, which guides the sliding module 31 to move in a straight line. A limiting clamp 34 is connected to the top of the module, used to clamp the rigid tube head within the fixed slot 311. The slide rail 33 is located below the sliding module, and the sliding module 31 is slidably connected to the slide rail 33. The base of the limiting clamp 34 is connected to one side of the sliding module 31. Manually flipping the handle will cause the protruding contact to press against the rigid tube head located in the fixed slot 311. This quickly and stably fixes the rigid tube head in the fixed slot 311 without requiring complex installation and disassembly methods.

[0019] Preferably, the fixing slot 311 on the sliding module 31 is a groove formed on the sliding module 31, and the shape of the groove is similar to the shape of the lower half of the rigid tube head, so that the rigid tube head can be vertically inserted into the groove. The shape of the fixing groove matches the shape of the bottom surface of the rigid tube head when it is placed vertically, which can accurately support the lower part of the rigid tube head during operation and keep the position of the rigid tube head aligned with the axis of the flexible hose at one end. This allows for efficient and precise control of the placement position of the rigid tube head, thus enabling simple and efficient control of the docking posture of the rigid tube head and the flexible hose, ensuring precise docking position and docking effect.

[0020] Preferably, the hose fixing module 2 includes an upper mold 21, a lower mold 22, and a drive cylinder 23. The drive cylinder 23 is connected to the frame, and its moving end is connected to the upper mold 21. The upper mold 21 and the lower mold 22, when combined, form a positioning hole 24. The positioning hole 24 is divided into an expansion section 241 and a tightening section 242 along the hole axis. The diameter of the expansion section 241 is larger than the diameter of the tightening section 242, and the axial length of the expansion section 241 is greater than the joint length of the rigid tube head. The upper mold 21 and the lower mold 22, when combined and mated, form a complete positioning hole 24. The positioning hole 24 has a cylindrical cross-sectional shape, which can firmly bind the outer wall of the hose, creating radial inward pressure around the hose and maintaining the basic shape support of the hose. In addition, the diameter of the expansion section 241 is larger than the diameter of the tightening section 242, which allows the main body of the hose to maintain a good shape under the support, and the end can be stably inserted by the rigid tube head, providing good clearance space for the insertion of the rigid tube head and improving the accuracy of the insertion.

[0021] The system also includes a control system comprising a pilot-operated solenoid valve, a time-delay relay, and a time display. The time-delay relay is electrically connected to both the pilot-operated solenoid valve and the time display. The pilot-operated solenoid valve controls the start and stop of the drive cylinder 23. By controlling the pilot-operated solenoid valve through the time-delay relay, the start and stop of the cylinder used to move the hose fixing module 2 up and down can be controlled, achieving automated and efficient control.

[0022] The movement direction of the upper mold 21 relative to the lower mold 22 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the horizontal moving module 3, and the diameter of the tightening section 242 is smaller than the diameter of the flexible tube. These two mutually perpendicular forces provide two forces from the vertical direction, maintaining the flexible tube in its basic state while facilitating stable insertion.

[0023] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and all such changes should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
