Definitions
- the invention relates to a bending device for thin-walled metal pipes from a straight pipe guide, an adjoining and pivotable relative to the pipe guide core template with a clamping bar and a mandrel with a flexible mandrel tip in the area of the core template and an adjoining the mandrel tip and firmly connected to it and in the mandrel shaft axially fixed.
- bending devices of this and a similar type for thin-walled tubes are known (magazine “Werkstatt und strig 104 (1971) 4, pages 271 to 274", "Prevention of Wrinkling and Buckling of Thin-Walled Tubes When Bending" by Prof. Dr.-Ing. G. ⁇ hler , Bad Durkheim).
- "thin-walled” means pipes whose wall thickness is small in relation to the diameter and the bending radius, for.
- the invention has for its object to provide a bending device of the type mentioned, which manages with a short clamping length of the tube start and which allows the production of a curvature with a circular cross-section over the entire length.
- the mandrel tip as a radially practically incompressible solid cylinder made of an elastomer, is adapted in its outer contour to the inner contour of the metal pipe to be bent is formed, which extends only over the initial cross-section of the bending arc, and that in the area of the core template and its terminal strip, a spherical clamping head is provided in the metal tube, which is movable in the pivoting area of the core template relative to the mandrel tip and connected to a traction element designed as a return element is.
- the metal tube in the bending-effective initial section of the bending sheet is supported by the flexible but radially practically incompressible full cylinder made of elastomer in accordance with its special design on the inside, so that no constrictions or folds can form in this section which is decisive for the shaping.
- the metal tube can also be clamped sufficiently tightly over a short length at least at both ends of the rounded, in particular spherical clamping head, which is moved when the core template is pivoted with the core template.
- the clamping head can pass the bending arc without any problems, in particular without tilting, because of its short length and spherical shape. It can also be used for smoothing and re-profiling on the metal pipe.
- the flexural rigidity of the solid cylinder can also be increased along its length can be easily adjusted so that very few axial bores of different diameters and depths are let into the solid cylinder from the front. It is understood that in this case a slight loss of radial rigidity has to be accepted. It is then up to the practitioner to decide whether and if so what a great compromise should be made.
- the slotted cross section is preferably limited to the area above the neutral fiber of the bent mandrel tip.
- the invention provides two alternative options for retrieving (retracting) the mandrel and the clamping head after the bending process has been completed: according to the first alternative, the traction means is flexible at least in the bending arc, runs through the mandrel tip without play and is in the mandrel tip and / or the mandrel shaft fixed and is also movable up to a stop through the clamping head.
- a compression spring is preferably inserted between the clamping head and the stop, which holds the clamping head in contact with the front face of the mandrel in the unloaded state. This starting position facilitates the insertion of the mandrel in preparation for the bending process.
- the traction means is flexible on the one hand at least in the bending arc and runs through the mandrel tip and the mandrel shaft and is connected to the clamping head on the other hand.
- the return force can act directly on the traction mechanism.
- the clamping head can consist of a slotted, spherical outer ring and an inner support and clamping cone, which acts self-tensioning on the outer ring during the bending process.
- the pulling force exerted on the pipe during the bending process is transferred to the clamping ring and the clamping cone and used in the sense of a spreading of the outer ring and thus a firmer clamping effect, while the force exerted by the traction device when the clamping head is retrieved acts in the sense of the solution.
- the clamping head can also consist of several, in particular two spherical links, which form a rigid structural unit. Because of the central constriction and the rounding, there is no jamming in the pipe bend in this case when the clamping head is pulled back. With a simple design, this solution is characterized above all by optimal guidance and particularly good post-profiling properties.
- the traction means is more and more free between the mandrel and the clamping head during the bending process with increasing bending, it is advantageous to let it run eccentrically through the metal pipe towards the inner pipe bend.
- the advantage is that the pulling means can be supported on the inner bend of the inner tube wall when pulling back.
- the bending device consists of a fixed straight pipe guide 1, an adjoining, pivotable core template 2 with a clamping strip 3 and a mandrel with a mandrel tip 4 arranged in the region of the core template 2 and an adjoining and firmly attached to the mandrel tip 4 , in the region of the pipe guide 1 mandrel shaft 5.
- the mandrel tip 4 and the mandrel shaft 5 are axially fixed during the bending process.
- the mandrel tip 4 consists of a solid cylinder made of elastomer flexible but radially practically incompressible with regard to the deformability of the tube material. In practice, hardnesses on the order of 95 Shore A to 50 Shore D should be suitable for steel pipes. To improve the flexibility, the solid cylinder can be slotted in the bendable section above its neutral fiber F towards the outer bend, namely axial slits S1 (Fig. 1) or radial slits S2 (Fig. 2).
- a rope runs through the mandrel tip 4 and the mandrel shaft 5 as a traction means 6 toward the core template 2 and thus offset eccentrically to the inner arch.
- the traction means 6 is axially fixed in the mandrel shaft 5 and sits with little play in the mandrel tip 4, which is favorable for the radial incompressibility of the mandrel tip 4, unless a certain compressibility in favor of increased flexibility, particularly in the direction of the mandrel tip 4 Area if necessary even with additional axial bores of different cross-sections and different depths and radially far enough from the outer circumference, which could be quite practical with elastomer that is very incompressible.
- a thrust washer 8 On the end face of the mandrel tip 4 is a thrust washer 8, which is axially fixed in a groove on the traction means 6 and reduces axial deflection of the elastomer material of the solid cylinder with the result of a decrease in diameter.
- the traction means 6 extends further through a clamping head 7.
- a compression spring 9 is seated on the traction means 6 between the clamping head 7 and a stop 6a from a slotted, spherical outer ring 7a and an inner support and clamping cone 7b.
- the pipe R to be bent can be clamped over a short length between the outer ring 7a and the straight outlet of the core template 2 and the terminal strip 3.
- the pipe R to be bent is inserted.
- the mandrel with mandrel tip 4 and mandrel shaft 5 is inserted into the tube R with the clamping head 7 resting on the mandrel tip 4 until the mandrel tip 4 lies in the area of the core template 2.
- the clamping strip 3 is clamped with the core template 2 on the one hand and the clamping head 7 on the other hand, whereby the tube R is clamped.
- the mandrel shaft 5 is axially fixed in the pipe guide 1 by means not shown in the drawing.
- the tube R held by the core template 2 and the clamping strip 3 is taken along and pulled over the axially fixed mandrel 4. Because of the conical seat of the clamping head 7, the tensile forces acting thereby on the outer ring 7a ensure that the clamping force is increased.
- the tube R gets into the bent area of the core template 2 and the initially straight mandrel tip 4 is bent more and more, the tube R on its inner wall when Bending process is supported in the active bending area without gaps, so that no folds or constrictions can form.
- the clamping strip 3 is loosened and the mandrel with the clamping head 7 is pulled back through the bent tube R.
- the clamping effect of the clamping head 7 is canceled due to the conical seat due to the now opposing forces.
- the compression spring 9 presses the clamping head 7 back into its starting position on the end face of the mandrel tip 4.
- the bent tube R can then be removed and the core template 2 can be pivoted back into its starting position so that a new tube to be bent can be inserted.
- Figure 2 differs from that of Figure 1 only in the clamping head and in the traction. Insofar as there are matches, the same reference numerals are used for the individual parts as in FIG. 1.
- the clamping head 17 consists of several, in particular two rigidly connected spherical links which are connected to a rope as a traction means 16.
- the clamping head 17 could also consist of a one-piece, rigid, short body with a bellows-like outer contour.
- the traction means 16 is movably guided through the mandrel tip 4 and the mandrel shaft 5. So when swiveling it can be eased For the return, the return force reaches outwards guided traction means 16. First, the clamping head 17 is pulled back through the tube until it strikes the end face of the mandrel tip. Then the clamping head 17 is withdrawn together with the mandrel tip 4 and the mandrel shaft 5.
- a jamming in the pipe bend can not occur despite the rigid structural unit of the spherical members because of their good axial guidance at axially offset locations and their shape. Their roundings and their central constriction on the one hand give enough space for the bent pipe and on the other hand they act on the pipe R when they are retrieved. It is understood that with more than two spherical links, for. B three links, the middle link must spring back with its contour at least on the inner arch. The same applies to a bellows-like clamping head.
