Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung ringförmig gewellter Metallrohre
nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for producing ring-shaped corrugated metal pipes
according to the preamble of
Aus der CH-A-275 509 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Wellrohren mit einer um das Werkstück umlaufenden Druckrolle bekannt, bei welcher die Wellung durch Zähne der Druckrolle (Zahnrad) eingeformt wird, und die Druckrolle um eine zur Rohrlängsachse rechtwinklige Achse drehbar gelagert ist und deren Drehachse während der Erzeugung der Wellung selbst in einer zur Rohrlängsachse senkrecht stehenden Ebene um das der Druckrolle zugeführte Rohr umläuft, das seinerseits durch seinen Vorschub die Druckrolle dreht. Bevorzugt werden bei dieser Vorrichtung drei Druckrollen, die um 120° versetzt an dem Rohr angreifen. Die Zahnköpfe der am äußeren Umfang der Druckrollen befindlichen Zähne sind konkav dem Rohrdurchmesser angepaßt ausgebildet, sodaß die Druckrollen ein in sich geschlossenes Verformungswerkzeug bilden. Mit dieser Ausgestaltung der Druckrollen ist die Herstellung von Rohren mit einer tiefen Wellung nicht möglich. Es wird deshalb vorgeschlagen, zur Erzielung eines kleineren Wellenabstandes und einer größeren Welltiefe das gewellte Rohr durch axiales Stauchen weiter zu verformen. Dies führt jedoch zu einer unkontrollierbaren ungleichmäßigen Wellform. Ein weiterer wesentlicher Nachteil ist darin zu sehen, daß bedingt durch die konkaven Zahnköpfe und die große Anzahl der Zähne auf das Rohr extrem hohe Torsionskräfte einwirken, die eine kontinuierliche Fertigung dünnwandiger Metallrohre erschweren oder sogar unmöglich machen. From CH-A-275 509 is a device for the production of corrugated pipes with a um the workpiece rotating pressure roller known, in which the corrugation by teeth the pressure roller (gear) is molded, and the pressure roller by one Longitudinal axis of the tube is rotatably supported and its axis of rotation during the generation of the corrugation even in a perpendicular to the pipe longitudinal axis Plane revolves around the pipe fed to the pressure roller, which in turn passes through its Feed rotates the pressure roller. In this device, three pressure rollers are preferred, which attack the pipe offset by 120 °. The tooth tips on the outer circumference the teeth of the pressure rollers are concavely adapted to the tube diameter formed so that the pressure rollers a self-contained deformation tool form. With this configuration of the pressure rollers, the production of tubes with a deep curl not possible. It is therefore suggested to achieve a smaller corrugation distance and a greater corrugation depth the corrugated tube by axial Deform further deform. However, this leads to an uncontrollable uneven wave shape. Another major disadvantage is that due to the concave tooth tips and the large number of teeth on the tube act extremely high torsional forces that a continuous production thin-walled Make metal pipes difficult or even impossible.
Aus der US-A-3 780 556 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung ringförmig gewellter Metallrohre bekannt, bei der mindestens eine um ein Glattrohr umlaufende Druckrolle vorgesehen ist. Die Druckrolle weist eine Vielzahl von Zähnen auf, welche die Wellen in das Glattrohr einformen. Die Druckrolle ist um eine zur Rohrlängenachse rechtwinklige Achse drehbar gelagert. Ihre Drehachse umläuft das Glattrohr während der Erzeugung der Wellen in einer zur Rohrlängenachse senkrecht stehenden Ebene. Das angetriebene Glattrohr sorgt durch seinen Vorschub für eine Drehung der Druckrolle um die Drehachse der Druckrolle. Mit dieser Vorrichtung lassen sich Wellrohre mit einem Verhältnis von Welltiefe zu Wellsteigung von größer als 0,3 nicht herstellen. From US-A-3 780 556 a device for producing ring-shaped corrugated is Metal pipes are known in which at least one pressure roller rotating around a smooth pipe is provided. The pressure roller has a variety of teeth, which the waves form into the smooth tube. The pressure roller is around one to the pipe length axis right-angled axis rotatable. Its axis of rotation runs around the smooth tube during the generation of the waves in a plane perpendicular to the pipe length axis. The driven smooth tube ensures a rotation of the Pressure roller around the axis of rotation of the pressure roller. With this device you can Corrugated pipes with a corrugation depth to corrugation pitch ratio of greater than 0.3 do not produce.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Metallrohre mit einer ringförmigen Wellung herzustellen, wobei das Verhältnis von Welltiefe Wt zu Wellsteigung Ws größer ist als 0,3. Unter der Welltiefe Wt soll der radiale Abstand zwischen einer Wellenkuppe und dem Wellental verstanden werden. Die Wellsteigung Ws ist der Abstand zweier Wellenkuppen voneinander. Die extrem tiefe Wellung soll ohne weitere Maßnahmen, d. h. beim Wellvorgang erzeugt werden.The object of the present invention is to produce metal tubes with an annular corrugation, the ratio of corrugation depth W t to corrugation pitch W s being greater than 0.3. The wave depth W t is to be understood as the radial distance between a wave crest and the wave trough. The wave pitch W s is the distance between two wave crests. The extremely deep corrugation should be generated without further measures, ie during the corrugation process.
Die Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 erfaßten Merkmale gelöst.The object is achieved by the features recorded in the characterizing part of
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen erfaßt.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention are covered in the subclaims.
Mit Hilfe der Erfindung ist es gelungen, Metallrohre mit einer tiefen Wellung in einem Arbeitsgang herzustellen, die äußerst flexibel sind. Ein weiterer wesentlicher Vorteil der Erfindung ist darin zu sehen, daß die Wellung in Längsrichtung des Metallrohres gesehen gleichmäßig in Bezug auf die Welltiefe und die Wellsteigung ist und von daher die Metallrohre als Leiter von koaxialen Hochfrequenzkabeln aber auch als Hohlleiter hervorragend geeignet sind. Eine Beschädigung der Oberfläche des gewellten Metallrohres im Bereich des Wellentals aber auch im Bereich der Wellenflanken ist nicht gegeben.With the help of the invention it has been possible to produce metal pipes with a deep corrugation in one Manufacturing operations that are extremely flexible. Another major advantage of the Invention is to be seen in the fact that the corrugation in the longitudinal direction of the metal tube seen is even in relation to the corrugation depth and the corrugation slope and therefore the metal pipes as conductors of coaxial high-frequency cables but also as waveguides are excellent. Damage to the surface of the corrugated Metal pipe in the area of the wave valley but also in the area of the wave flanks is not given.
Die Erfindung ist anhand der in den Figuren 1 bis 7 schematisch dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert.The invention is illustrated schematically in FIGS. 1 to 7 Exemplary embodiments explained in more detail.
In der Figur 1 ist eine seitliche Ansicht einer Anlage zur Herstellung eines koaxialen Hochfrequenzkabels mit einem ringförmig gewellten Außenleiter dargestellt.In Figure 1 is a side view of a system for producing a coaxial High-frequency cable shown with a ring-shaped corrugated outer conductor.
Von einer Vorratsspule 1 wird der mit einer Schaumstoffschicht isolierte Innenleiter 2
kontinuierlich abgezogen. Ein Metallband M, vorzugsweise ein Kupferband wird von
einer Bandspule 3 abgezogen und in einer Reinigungsanlage 4 gereinigt. Das
Metallband M wird dann in einer Formvorrichtung 5, die aus mehreren nicht näher
bezeichneten Formstufen besteht, zu einem den isolierten Innenleiter 2 umgebenden
Schlitzrohr geformt. Der Längsschlitz wird in einer Schweißeinrichtung 6 verschweißt. Der
Innendurchmesser des geschweißten Rohres ist etwas größer als der Außendurchmesser
des isolierten Innenleiters 2, damit die Isolierschicht nicht durch die Schweißwärme
beeinträchtigt wird. Mittels eines Spannzangenabzugs 7 wird das geschweißte Rohr sowie
der isolierte Innenleiter 2 in Richtung der Pfeile durch die Anlage transportiert. Der
Spannzangenabzug 7 weist mehrere Spannbackenpaare 7a auf, die das geschweißte
Rohr zangenförmig umfassen. Die Spannbackenpaare 7a sind auf einer endlosen Kette
7b befestigt, die in nicht dargestellter Weise von einem Elektromotor angetrieben wird.The
In Durchlaufrichtung gesehen hinter dem Spannzangenabzug 7 ist die Wellvorrichtung 8
angeordnet, in welcher aus dem glatten Metallrohr ein gewelltes Metallrohr erzeugt wird,
dessen Wellentäler eng auf der Isolierschicht aufsitzen und diese etwas eindrücken. Auf
diese Weise wird ein koaxiales Hochfrequenzkabel erhalten, bei dem der Spalt zwischen
der Isolierschicht und dem Außenleiter abgedichtet ist.The
Der mit dem gewellten Metallrohr versehene isolierte Innenleiter 2 wird abschließend auf
eine Kabeltrommel 9 aufgewickelt. Eine Tänzeranordnung 10 regelt die
Abzugsgeschwindigkeit der Kabeltrommel 9.The insulated
Auf den gewellten Außenleiter kann abschließend in nicht dargestellter Weise ein Kunststoffaußenmantel aufextrudiert werden.Finally, a corrugated outer conductor can be used in a manner not shown Plastic outer jacket are extruded.
Die Wellvorrichtung 8 ist anhand der Figuren 2 bis 5 näher beschrieben. An einem
drehantreibbaren Wellerkopf 11 ist eine Führungsbuchse 12 befestigt. Der innere
Durchmesser der Führungsbuchse 12 ist annähernd gleich dem Außendurchmesser des
geschweißten Glattrohres G. Die Führungsbuchse 12 weist eine Aussparung 12a auf, in
welche die als Wellwerkzeug fungierende Druckrolle 13 eingreift. Die Druckrolle 13 ist in
einem Lagerbock 14 frei drehbar gelagert. Der Lagerbock 14 ist mittels einer
Verstellspindel 15, die in einer Gewindebuchse 16 geführt ist, in radialer Richtung
verstellbar. Die Gewindebuchse 16 ist in einer mit dem Wellerkopf 11 fest verbundenen
Kopfplatte 17 drehbar gelagert. Mit 18 ist ein Gegengewicht bezeichnet, welches für
einen runden Lauf der Wellvorrichtung 8 sorgt.The
Die Tiefe der in das Glattrohr G einzubringenden Wellung wird durch die
Gewindespindel 15 eingestellt. Bei einem Drehantrieb des Wellerkopfes 11 umläuft die
Druckrolle 13 das Glattrohr G und formt dabei die Wellung ein. Da dem Glattrohr G
durch den Spannzangenabzug 7 ein Vorschub erteilt wird, wird die Druckrolle 13 so
angetrieben, daß sie um ihre Drehachse rotiert. Dadurch taucht der die letzte Wellung
erzeugende Zahn der Druckrolle 13 aus dem Wellental aus und der nachfolgende Zahn
dringt in das vorgeschobene Glattrohr G ein. Auf diese Weise wird mit der um die
Rohrlängsachse umlaufenden und um ihre eigene Drehachse angetriebenen Druckrolle
13 in kontinuierlicher Weise ein Rohr mit einer ringförmigen Wellung erzeugt.The depth of the corrugation to be introduced into the smooth tube G is determined by the
Threaded
Wie aus Figur 3 deutlich wird, ist die Druckrolle 13 mittels der Wälzlager 19, die nach
außen abgedichtet sind, frei drehbar gelagert.As is clear from Figure 3, the
In den Figuren 4 und 5 ist eine Wellvorrichtung mit zwei einander gegenüberliegenden
Druckrollen 13 dargestellt. Auf diese Weise kann bei gleicher Umlaufgeschwindigkeit des
Wellerkopfes 11 eine doppelt so hohe Fertigungsgeschwindigkeit erreicht werden.In Figures 4 and 5 is a corrugated device with two opposite one another
Es versteht sich von selbst, daß auch drei oder mehr Druckrollen 13 einsetzbar sind,
wobei sich jeweils die Fertigungsgeschwindigkeit vervielfacht.It goes without saying that three or
Figur 6 soll das Prinzip des neuen Wellverfahrens verdeutlichen. Die Druckrolle 13 ist
bezüglich ihrer Drehachse so der Mittelachse des Glattrohres Gangenähert, daß die
Zähne Z in die Wandung des Glattrohres G eintauchen und bei einer Rotation der
Druckrolle 13 um die Mittelachse des Glattrohres G eine ringförmige Wellung erzeugen.
Durch den Vorschub des Glattrohres G wird die Druckrolle in Pfeilrichtung gedreht,
sodaß nach Fertigstellung eines Wellentals der nächste Zahn Z in die Glattrohrwandung
eintaucht.Figure 6 is intended to illustrate the principle of the new corrugation process. The
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Anzahl der Zähne Z auf 7 - 11 begrenzt, denn nur auf diese Weise ist ein Verhältnis von Welltiefe zu Wellsteigung von mehr als 0,3 zu erzielen.According to the invention, the number of teeth Z is limited to 7-11, because only this A ratio of corrugation depth to corrugation slope of more than 0.3 can be achieved.
Von Vorteil ist ferner, daß der Kopfkreisdurchmesser der Druckrolle zwischen beim 2,3
bis 3,5fachen der Wellsteigung bzw. dem Wellenabstand liegt. Ein zu kleiner
Kopfkreisdurchmesser führt zu einer mechanisch instabilen Druckrolle 13, wogegen ein
zu großer Kopfkreisdurchmesser die Erzeugung einer tiefen Wellung nicht zuläßt. Unter
dem Kopfkreisdurchmesser soll der Durchmesser der die Zähne Z umhüllenden
verstanden werdenIt is also advantageous that the tip diameter of the pressure roller between at 2.3
up to 3.5 times the shaft pitch or the shaft distance. Too small
Tip circle diameter leads to a mechanically
Die Köpfe der Zähne Z sind eben ausgebildet, wie es aus Figur 3 und 5 erkennbar ist. Die Breite der Zähne Z beträgt mehr als der Durchmesser des gewellten Rohres im Bereich des Wellentales. Hierdurch wird eine besonders glatte Oberfläche im Bereich des Wellentales erreicht. Dem gleichen Zweck dient auch die Tatsache, daß die Zähne Z insbesondere im Bereich des Zahnkopfes gehärtet und poliert sind. Dadurch läßt sich der Abrieb sowohl an den Zähnen Z als auch am Rohr verringern.The heads of the teeth Z are flat, as can be seen from FIGS. 3 and 5. The width of the teeth Z is more than the diameter of the corrugated tube in the Area of the wave valley. This creates a particularly smooth surface in the area of Tidal wave reached. The fact that the teeth Z are hardened and polished, especially in the area of the tooth head. This allows the Reduce abrasion on both teeth Z and pipe.
Die Flanken der Zähne Z verlaufen parallel zueinander. Dadurch wird erreicht, daß die Zähne Z beim Verlassen des Wellentales die Wellenflanken nicht berühren und somit keine unerwünschten Eindrückungen hinterlassen.The flanks of the teeth Z run parallel to one another. This ensures that the Teeth Z do not touch the wave flanks when leaving the trough and thus leave no unwanted impressions.
Für die Erzeugung einer optimalen Wellung ist ferner von Vorteil, daß die Höhe der Zähne größer ist als die Welltiefe. Dies geht insbesondere aus Figur 7 hervor. Dort ist das Verhältnis von Zahnhöhe Zt zu Welltiefe Wt größer als 1,2.For the generation of an optimal corrugation, it is also advantageous that the height of the teeth is greater than the corrugation depth. This is particularly evident from FIG. 7. There the ratio of tooth height Z t to corrugation depth W t is greater than 1.2.
