Description

Numerical control pipe bender capable of dynamically correcting hole positions through visual detection and pipe bending method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of pipe bending machines, in particular to a numerical control pipe bending machine capable of dynamically correcting hole positions through visual detection and a pipe bending method.
Background
The numerical control pipe bender is an automatic device for manufacturing a bent pipe from a pipe in a bending deformation mode.
In the prior art, a typical numerical control pipe bender comprises a pipe bender main unit (servo trolley), wherein the pipe bender main unit is integrally arranged on a movable guide rail and is driven by a servo motor to move on the guide rail; the main machine of the pipe bender mainly comprises a numerical control rotating mechanism driven by a speed reduction transmission mechanism, and a chuck used for clamping a pipe is arranged on the numerical control rotating mechanism. When bending, the tube is clamped by the chuck, and the rotation angle and the movement distance are controlled by a numerical control system under the coordination of a bending die, so that the three-dimensional bending of the tube is realized.
The bending of pipes is classified into bending of pipes without flanges and bending of pipes with flanges according to the bending process. The pipe without the flange has no flange at the end part of the pipe, and the pipe is directly bent by clamping the pipe part by a chuck during bending; the flange is arranged at the end part of the pipe with the flange, and the outer circle of the pipe flange is clamped by a chuck for bending during bending.
The numerical control pipe bender is commonly used in shipyards. At present, most of units of a shipyard adopt a process of bending a pipe firstly and welding a flange secondly. The process has low efficiency, more labor and higher requirement on workers. A small part of shipyards adopt a process of welding before bending after accumulating the bending experience of the pipes for many years, but are influenced by factors such as the rotation precision of a numerical control pipe bender, unreliable clamping outside a clamping flange of a servo trolley, large error of positioning the flange by a pin shaft, errors of welding the flange on a straight pipe, non-fit between the end face of the flange and the end face of the trolley, deformation of welding the flange and the straight pipe and the like, so that the error ratio is large, the flange cannot rotate to a required position, and the bent flange pipe has large deviation and cannot be used.
In the prior art, for bending a pipe with a flange, in order to make the circumferential position of a bolt hole on the flange accurate relative to the three-dimensional bent shape position of the pipe, a positioning pin shaft is usually arranged on a chuck, and one bolt hole on the flange is sleeved in the positioning pin shaft during clamping to realize single-hole positioning of the flange, so as to improve the positioning precision of the circumferential position of the flange.
However, the single-hole positioning method with flange pipe has the following problems:
first, due to a large gap between the flange and the pipe, the flange and the pipe are liable to be eccentric and inclined at the time of assembly, so that the bolt hole positions on the flange, particularly the circumferential positions, are largely deviated from the center of the pipe; if the circumferential position of the flange is determined by only single-hole positioning, a large circumferential position error of another single hole arranged at 180 degrees relative to the single hole can be caused, and the subsequent pipeline butt joint assembly after the three-dimensional bending of the pipe is difficult or even cannot be assembled.
Secondly, the rotating mechanism of the servo trolley of the pipe bender also has a certain rotating error, which can cause the circumferential error of the bolt hole position on the flange relative to the three-dimensional bent pipe, thus causing the pipeline butt joint assembly to be difficult and even causing the phenomenon of incapability of assembling.

Preferably, the clamping block of the L-shaped clamping jaw is provided with an arc surface matched with the excircle of the pipe.
According to the invention, the front end of the hollow seat ring is provided with the front flange, a plurality of positioning grooves parallel to the central axis are formed in the outer circle of the front flange along the circumferential direction, and the rotating arms of the L-shaped clamping jaws are matched with the positioning grooves and are rotatably connected through the pin shafts.
Preferably, the number of the L-shaped clamping jaws is four, and the L-shaped clamping jaws are uniformly arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction.
The L-shaped clamping jaw has a large rotation range, can be opened and closed in a large opening degree, and can be well suitable for shaking during hoisting of flanged pipelines, so that pipes are not easy to damage and touch hairs on one hand, and the efficiency of clamping flanged pipelines on the other hand is improved.
The large-opening self-centering powerful clamping device also realizes the clamping of the L-shaped clamping jaw by utilizing the conical surface of the push-pull sleeve, and the clamping of the L-shaped clamping jaw is realized by the mutual cooperation of the large-opening self-centering powerful clamping device, the push-pull sleeve, the push-pull oil cylinder and the lever type shifting fork, so that the powerful clamping under a compact structure is realized; the push-pull oil cylinder can meet the requirement of clamping force by using a small oil cylinder, and compared with the traditional clamping mode that a large-tonnage oil cylinder is matched with a chuck, the manufacturing cost of the push-pull oil cylinder can be greatly reduced.
As a preferred scheme for realizing automatic opening of the L-shaped jaws, a clamping groove is formed in the outer side part of the rear end of the rotating arm and far away from the central axis, the spring is a tension spring, and the tension spring is encircled into a ring shape and then is simultaneously sleeved on the clamping grooves of the rotating arms of the L-shaped jaws for clamping the flanged pipelines.

It should be pointed out that the bolt holes on the pipe flange of the flanged pipeline used in reality are basically even holes (such as four-hole uniform distribution, six-hole uniform distribution, eight-hole uniform distribution and the like) which are uniformly distributed. Therefore, when the hole positions are corrected, two holes A and B which are 180 degrees relative to each other are adopted, and the holes A and B are rotated by 180 degrees to perform visual identification detection and correction. If odd holes or other non-uniform special distribution holes occur, two holes with the farthest distance on the pipe flange can be selected, a corresponding theoretical design included angle is rotated when hole position correction is carried out according to the theoretical design included angles of the two holes, corresponding alpha and beta angle values are obtained through visual identification detection, and then hole position correction is carried out.

Secondly, the numerical control pipe bender and the pipe bending method for dynamically correcting the hole position through visual detection adopt a large-opening self-centering powerful clamping device to clamp a pipeline, the large-opening self-centering powerful clamping device can avoid a flange to directly clamp the outer diameter of a pipe, the clamping force is large, the clamping is reliable, and the defect that the pipe flange is damaged due to the fact that the traditional numerical control pipe bender clamps the pipe flange is overcome; compared with the traditional mode of clamping the outer circle of the flange, the mode of directly clamping the outer diameter of the pipe does not generate clamping deflection, so that the quality of three-dimensional bending of the pipe can be improved.
Thirdly, the numerical control pipe bender and the pipe bending method for dynamically correcting the hole position through visual detection adopt the visual identification system for identification and detection, and can not affect the detection after the replacement of the flanges with different specifications at the same position (the flanges with different specifications have different hole diameters, different hole circumferential diameters and different flange thicknesses).
Fourthly, the numerical control pipe bender and the pipe bending method for dynamically correcting hole positions through visual detection can avoid the problem of inaccurate pipe bending precision caused by errors generated in the actual production process, can enable the pipeline processing technology of a shipyard to be more optimized, realize zero-allowance accurate blanking, automatic coding of pipes, automatic welding of flanges of straight pipes and automatic pipe bending of the numerical control pipe bender, can realize intelligent production in a workshop, greatly save labor and improve production efficiency.

Therefore, when the hole positions are corrected, two holes A and B which are 180 degrees relative to each other are adopted, and the holes A and B are rotated by 180 degrees to perform visual identification detection and correction. If odd holes or other non-uniform special distribution holes occur, two holes with the farthest distance on the pipe flange 32 can be selected, a corresponding theoretical design included angle is rotated when hole position correction is carried out according to the theoretical design included angles of the two holes, corresponding alpha and beta angle values are obtained through visual identification detection, and then hole position correction is carried out.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
