Abstract

PURPOSE: To form branch pipe parts with a uniform thickness and high accuracy while preventing the formation of flaws on burring inside surfaces if the material of a base pipe is a soft material (aluminum alloy, etc.). CONSTITUTION: This forming head 1 is designed to move vertically and rotationally. The forming head 1 is circumferentially provided with plural bar- shaped pipe expanding pins 4 which project to incline at a sharp angle with the axis of rotation and are rotated by friction with the branch pipe forming inside surfaces (burring inside surfaces) of the base pipe 2 around the forming head 1. These pipe expanding pipes 4 successively expand the prepared holes 3 of the base pipe while collars 4a in contact with the branch pipes before rising of the branch pipes rotate along the burring inside surfaces at the time of expanding the prepared holes 3 of the base pipe 3. The final forming of the branch pipes is executed by the collars 4b in contact with the branch pipe parts at the time of rising of these parts. Since the respective collars rotate in correspondence to the contact state, the contact resistance is decreased and the flaws formed on the burring inside surfaces before rising of the branch pipes and at the time of rising are prevented and the thicknesses of the branch pipe parts are made uniform.

Here, a conventional burring method is shown in FIG. The shape of the pipe expanding pin 32 forming the molding head 31 is circular or elliptical,
The main body of the molding head 31 has a structure that moves up and down and rotates. Burring is performed by controlling the up-and-down movement and the rotational movement of the forming head, and the forming head 31 is inserted into the prepared hole 3 of the mother tube 2 and the expanding pin 32 is projected and rotated to pull up the forming head 31. To form a branch pipe. As a known example of this, there is, for example, JP-A-57-115921. With this processing method, scratches are likely to occur on the inner surface of the burring due to frictional sliding during processing. Therefore, in order to smooth the sliding of the contact portion between the inner surface of the burring and the tube expanding pin 32, the lubricant is discharged and supplied from the nozzle 37.
In addition, since the lubricant adheres to the inner surface of the mother pipe after the molding, cleaning work is performed.

In the processing method according to the above-mentioned prior art, the inner surface of the burring is scratched or stressed due to the contact resistance between the inner surface of the burring and the expanding pin or the conical pipe expanding head which is rotationally driven by the forming head. Due to the concentration, processing cracks 36 were likely to occur. Therefore, in the conventional processing method, in order to smooth the sliding of the contact portion between the inner surface of the burring and the tube expanding pin, the lubricant is discharged during the burring processing to prevent the occurrence of scratches. However, the material of the mother tube for burring is soft material (such as aluminum alloy material).
In such a case, the conventional technique is difficult to process and it is not possible to prevent the occurrence of scratches, and the roundness of the processed branch pipe portion is low, resulting in poor accuracy and a problem in product quality.

According to the present invention, since the contact friction resistance with the inner surface of the burring can be reduced by using the rotating expansion pin, the burring can be performed without friction. This can prevent scratches on the inner surface of the burring and improve the quality of the product.
Further, when the prepared hole of the mother tube is expanded, the prepared hole of the mother tube is locally and sequentially formed within the range in which the elongation rate of the material does not exceed the limit, so that work cracking can be prevented. In addition, in order to improve the roundness of the branch pipe portion, the pipe expanding head shape in consideration of the spring back at the time of the final forming process enables highly accurate burring process. Further, since no lubricant is required, the cleaning work after processing is unnecessary, and the working time can be shortened.

FIG. 1 shows a structure of the expanding pin 4 of the molding head 1 and a state diagram at the time of molding a branch pipe. The burring machine using the pipe expanding pin 4 according to this embodiment is similar to the conventional technology.
The molding head body 1 has a structure that moves up and down and rotates. However, the pipe expanding pin 4 is a plurality of rod-shaped members that project around the molding head 1 at an acute angle to the rotation axis, and when the pilot hole 3 of the mother pipe 2 is expanded, the collar 4b that comes into contact before the branch pipe rises. The prepared hole of the mother pipe is expanded while rotating along the inner surface of the burring (b), and at the time of rising of the branch pipe portion, the collar 4a at the tip portion comes into contact with the branch pipe to perform final molding of the branch pipe while rotating (a). As described above, the pipe expanding pin 4 has the collars 4a and 4b that rotate independently of each other, and the contact frictional resistance can be reduced by rotating along the inner surface of the branch pipe portion. In the figure, 5 is a thrust bearing, 6 is a radial bearing, and 7 is a nut.

Since the occurrence of scratches is often seen at the time of rising of the branch pipe, in particular, the tip end portion of the pipe expanding pin 4 is divided into independent short collars 4a and the bearing shafts are independently connected to the support shaft to form a branch pipe. It has a structure that easily rotates along the inner surface and reduces frictional resistance. As a result, it is possible to reliably suppress the damage that occurs when the branch pipe rises. With respect to scratches that occur when the branch pipe is not rising, by dividing the collar portion of the pipe expanding pin 4 into a plurality (4b ...), each collar rotates independently in response to the contact state. It is possible to prevent scratches occurring on the inner surface of the burring before and when the branch pipe rises, and it is possible to uniformly form the plate thickness of the branch pipe portion.

Further, in this embodiment, the two-division method (4a, 4

Further, since the rotational load resistance of the molding head can be reduced by the divided collars, the number of the rotation expanding pipe pins 4 is also changed according to the diameter of the branch pipe and the like.

The prepared state of the pilot hole 3 of the mother tube 2 is initially elliptical (a) or (b) as shown in FIG. 7, but is processed by the primary expansion head 13 so that the central part of the ellipse swells. (C) Next, it is further expanded by the secondary pipe expanding head 14 (d), gradually circularly processed by several stages of processing, and finally circularly processed by the pipe expanding head 15 (b).
The pre-processing heads such as the primary pipe expanding head 13 and the secondary pipe expanding head 14 have the machining surfaces formed in an oval shape, so that the prepared hole portion of the mother pipe 2 is gradually enlarged in the major axis surface,
The pipes are successively expanded in several stages, and are easily molded with a small friction force and a small force, so that processing is performed to prevent scratches and cracks, and the final pipe expanding head 15 is formed into a perfect circle with an elliptical surface. The final pipe expanding head 15 has an elliptical shape in which the major axis length is about φd + φd × 0.3% when the minor axis length is φd, so that a high-precision burring process with high roundness considering springback is performed.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the contact frictional resistance between the inner surface of the burring and the molding head is reduced, even if the material of the mother tube is a soft material (such as an aluminum alloy material), The branch pipe can be molded with high precision without damaging the inner surface of the burring, and the quality of the product can be improved. Further, the rotational load resistance of the molding head is reduced, and the drive unit can be downsized. Moreover, since it is not necessary to supply the lubricant to the bar link processing portion, the work efficiency can be improved.
