Abstract
An electric pipe expander and intelligent control circuit for the electric pipe expander are provided. The electric pipe expander includes a pipe expander body and a mandrel sliding cavity disposed on the pipe expander body. A chuck body capable of clamping a pipe to be processed is disposed at an opening end of the mandrel sliding cavity. A mandrel is slidingly connected in the mandrel sliding cavity, an outer side end of the mandrel is provided with an obliquely disposed pipe expanding cone, an inner side end of the mandrel is provided with an elastic body accommodating cavity. Flat keys are disposed on the mandrel, and an elastic body is clamped and disposed between the flat keys and a bottom surface of the elastic body accommodating cavity.
Claims9
An electric pipe expander, comprising:
- a pipe expander body;
- and
- a mandrel sliding cavity provided on the pipe expander body,
- wherein a clamping head body capable of clamping a pipe to be processed is provided at an opening end of the mandrel sliding cavity,
- a mandrel is slidably connected in the mandrel sliding cavity,
- an outer side end of the mandrel is provided with an inclined pipe expanding cone, an inner side end of the mandrel is provided with with an elastomer accommodating cavity,
- a guide screw with a drive nut is provided on the pipe expander body opposite to an opening of the elastomer accommodating cavity,
- the guide screw extends into the elastomer accommodating cavity, and
- a flat key is provided on the mandrel,
- an outer side end of the flat key is slidingly connected to a worm gear mechanism in an axial direction, an inner side end of the flat key is slidingly connected to an axial key groove of the drive nut, and an elastomer is sandwiched between the flat key and a bottom surface of the elastomer accommodating cavity, the elastomer is an annular rubber piece, and the guide screw extends into a central hole of the elastomer;
- by deforming the elastomer itself, an axial moving speed of the mandrel is reduced, and a circumferential shape of a flare of the pipe becomes uniform.
