Description
Die Erfindung betrifftt eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Richten von Rohren mit einem in das Rohr eintauchenden, radial aufweitbaren, von einer Zugstange mit Holm getragenen Expanderwerkzeug und von außen auf das Rohr in radialer Richtung einwirkenden Richtkraftmittelr, gemäß dem Oberbergriff des Ansprunchs 1 bzw. 7 (siehe z.B.
Bei der Fertigung von Rohren aus Blechtafeln, die nach dem U-O-E-Verfahren, dem Formpressverfahren, dem 3-Walzenbiegeverfahren oder dergleichen zu einem runden Schlitzrohr eingeformt und dann verschweißt werden, wird das Rohrmaterial beim kontinuierlichen Längsnaht-Schweißen einer sehr hohen thermischen Belastung unterzogen. Ein solchermaßen hergestelltes Rohr, das bei der Einformung krumm geworden ist und insbesondere aufgrund des Schweißprozesses einem erheblichen Verzug unterliegt, ist in aller Regel ungerade (Bananenform), so dass es zur Erzielung der benötigten Geradheit gerichtet werden muss. Wie sich bei der Großrohrfertigung gezeigt hat, tritt das Problem der Geradheit besonders augenscheinlich bei im Durchmesser kleinen (unter 30 Zoll) und dickwandigen (oberhalb 15 mm) Rohren auf.In the manufacture of tubes from sheet metal, which are formed by the U-O-E process, the compression molding process, the 3-roll bending process or the like to form a round slotted tube and then welded, the tube material is subjected in continuous longitudinal seam welding a very high thermal load. A tube produced in this way, which has become crooked during the indentation and is subject to a considerable delay, in particular due to the welding process, is generally odd (banana shape), so that it must be directed to achieve the required straightness. As has been shown in large pipe production, the straightness problem is particularly evident in small diameter (below 30 inch) and thick walled (above 15 mm) pipes.
Die Rohre werden deshalb mit Expanderköpfen bzw. -werkzeugen gerichtet, wie durch die DE-P
Beim Expandieren des Rohres kommt es allerdings zu Asymmetrie (Verkantung) am Expanderwerkzeug, wodurch zwar ein gewisser Richteffekt eintritt, zumal das Material beim Aufweiten fließt, jedoch ist dieser gering und beschränkt reproduzierbar. Es kommen daher in der Praxis zusammen mit dem Expanderwerkzeug Vorrichtungen zum Einsatz, die hinter dem Expanderkopf bzw. -werkzeug von außen an das Rohr angesetzte Richtsättel oder Rollen aufweisen, die das Rohr in radialer Richtung mit einer Kraft beaufschlagen und in dem Rohr ein Biegemoment einleiten, mit dem ergänzend zu der Einwirkung des Expanderwerkzeugs die Ungeradheit beseitigt werden soll. Hierbei tritt aber unvermeidbar auch ein Moment auf den Holm und die Zugstange auf, über die das Expanderwerkzeug mit einer dem Einschieben in das Rohr dienenden Verschiebevorrichtung verbunden ist. Das bringt nachteilige Auswirkungen auf die Lebensdauer der Komponenten des Expanders mit sich, wobei außerdem noch hinzukommt, dass der insbesondere bei kleineren Durchmessern dünne Holm wie eine weiche Feder wirkt, was sich negativ beim Richtergebnis niederschlägt.When expanding the tube, however, it comes to asymmetry (tilting) on Expanderwerkzeug, which although a certain straightening effect occurs, especially as the material flows during expansion, but this is low and limited reproducible. Therefore, in practice, together with the expander tool, devices are used which have straightening saddles or rollers placed on the outside of the tube behind the expander head or tool, which act on the tube in the radial direction with a force and initiate a bending moment in the tube with which, in addition to the action of the Expanderwerkzeugs the oddness is to be eliminated. In this case, however, unavoidably occurs also a moment on the spar and the pull rod, via which the expander tool is connected to a slide inserted into the tube displacement device. This has a detrimental effect on the life of the components of the expander, which also adds that the thin spar especially for smaller diameters acts as a soft spring, which is reflected negatively in the directional result.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung der gattungsgemäßen Art ohne die beschriebenen Nachteile zu schaffen, insbesondere zum Richten von Rohren mit dickeren Wandstärken und höheren Materialfestigkeiten und dabei kleinen Durchmesserbereichen.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a method and an apparatus of the generic type without the disadvantages described, in particular for straightening pipes with thicker wall thicknesses and higher material strengths and thereby small diameter ranges.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung mit dem Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Ein Verfahren zum Richten von Rohren in einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist in Anspruch 7 definiert. Indem erfindungsgemäß das Aufweiten und Richten funktional getrennt sind, lassen sich Asymmetrien am Expanderwerkzeug und an dessen Holm sowie an der Zugstange auftretende Momente vermeiden. Dadurch wird die Lebensdauer der Komponenten nicht negativ beeinflusst. Desweiteren können Richtkraft und -weg kontrolliert eingeleitet werden, so dass ein Rohr gezielt und reproduzierbar gerichtet werden kann.This object is achieved by a device having the features of
Die Vorrichtung kann so ausgeführt werden, dass entweder nur in einer Ebene (da das Rohr meistens über der Schweißnaht hohl liegt) oder aber auch räumlich gerichtet werden.The device can be designed so that either only in one plane (because the tube is usually hollow above the weld) or also spatially directed.
Wenn vorzugsweise drei Richtkraftmittel miteinander verbunden sind, können die Richtkräfte von nur einem Kraftbeaufschlagungsmittel erzeugt werden, d.h. mit Kraftbeaufschlagung an nur einer Stelle des Rohres, wobei die Verbindung der Richtkraftmittel zur Bildung des Richtdreieckes führt.Preferably, when three straightening means are connected together, the straightening forces can be generated by only one force applying means, i. with application of force to only one point of the tube, wherein the connection of the straightening means leads to the formation of the directional triangle.
Eine Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Geradheit des Rohres gemessen und der Richtprozess abhängig von den Messergebnissen korrigiert wird. Das kann sofort manuell oder zumindest teilweise automatisiert erfolgen.An embodiment of the invention provides that the straightness of the tube is measured and the straightening process is corrected as a function of the measurement results. This can be done immediately manually or at least partially automated.
Die Richtkraftmittel sind nach der Erfindung als sich an das Rohr anlegende Sättel oder Rollen ausgebildet sein, wobei das mittlere Richtkraftmittel zudem das Rohr mit dem Expanderwerkzeug im Inneren in Position hält.The straightening means are according to the invention designed as saddles or rollers to be applied to the tube, wherein the mean straightening means also holds the tube with the expander tool in position inside.
Eine bevorzugte Ausführung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass zur Aufbringung der Richtkraft die Rollen bzw. Sättel nur der beiden äußeren Gerüste gegen das Rohr anstellbar sind.A preferred embodiment of the invention provides that for applying the straightening force, the rollers or saddles of only the two outer frameworks against the pipe are adjustable.
Wenn die Gerüste vorteilhaft miteinander verbunden sind, lassen sich die Kräfte kurzschließen und werden nicht in das Fundament oder den Expanderrahmen geleitet.If the scaffolds are advantageously connected to each other, the forces can be short-circuited and are not conducted into the foundation or the expander frame.
Eine andere Ausführung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass in einem gemeinsamen Tragrahmen ein mittlerer Sattel oder eine mittlere Rolle und von diesem bzw. dieser vertikal beabstandet jeweils an den äußeren Enden des Tragrahmens ein Sattel bzw. eine Rolle angeordnet ist, wobei die Sättel bzw. Rollen vorzugsweise gelenkig in dem Tragrahmen gelagert sind. Das solchermaßen von den drei Richtkraftmitteln in einer Ebene gegenüberliegend an drei Stellen eingespannte Rohr unterliegt aufgrund des gemeinsamen Tragrahmens dem Einfluss des sich ausbildenden Richtdreiecks.Another embodiment of the invention provides that in a common support frame, a middle saddle or a middle roller and vertically spaced from each of these at the outer ends of the support frame, a saddle or a roller is arranged, wherein the saddles or rollers are preferably articulated mounted in the support frame. The thus clamped by the three directional force in a plane opposite at three points pipe is subject to the influence of the training triangle due to the common support frame.
Das lässt sich hierbei vorteilhaft bereits dann erreichen, wenn nur einer der drei Sättel bzw. eine der Rollen mit einem Kraftbeaufschlagungsmittel, z.B. ein Hydraulikzylinder, ausgebildet ist, vorzugsweise einer der äußeren Sättel bzw. eine der äußeren Rollen.This can advantageously already be achieved if only one of the three saddles or one of the rollers is provided with a force-applying means, e.g. a hydraulic cylinder is formed, preferably one of the outer saddles or one of the outer rollers.
