Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for impressing a corrugation in a smooth existing pipe made of metal according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Such a device is for example from the JP S62 114 731 A out.
  • Such a device is used for producing well bendable pipes made of metal, which consist for example of steel, copper or aluminum.
  • Such pipes can be used for example in the construction of electrical or optical cables or as electrical conductors of high-frequency cables or for the transport of flowable media.
  • the corrugation can be helical or annular. The degree of bendability depends essentially on the depth of the corrugation, d. H. from the radial difference between the wave crests and the troughs.
  • a tube is formed from a longitudinally-starting metal strip which is welded to a longitudinal slot.
  • the smooth tube thus obtained is then corrugated in a shaft means transverse to its longitudinal direction.
  • a Weller disk shaft means designated as a shaft bush guide bushing is mounted, whose inner diameter is almost equal to the outer diameter of the smooth tube.
  • the corrugated tube emerging from the shaft means is moved by an elongate hollow shaft connected to the shaft means and connected to an electric motor.
  • the hollow shaft surrounds the corrugated tube at a distance.
  • the US 3,387,477 A describes a device for corrugating a pipe, which has three rollers offset by 120 ° from each other with threads, which are mounted on their surfaces.
  • the tube to be corrugated is guided between the three rollers, which are each rotated about their axis. Through the threads a corrugation is forced into the tube.
  • a sleeve surrounding the corrugated tube has three circumferentially offset recesses through which the rollers protrude. It should prevent bulging of the tube and collapse of the same.
  • a device for corrugating the sheath of an electric cable has a block having attached to it a metal ring rotatable about the axis of the device through which a corrugation is forced in the axially moving sheath during operation of the device.
  • a arranged in the direction of movement of the jacket in front of the metal ring and mounted in the direction of movement behind the same socket are connected via ball bearings with a holder to which the metal ring is attached.
  • JP S62 114 731 A a device for impressing a corrugation is described in an initially smooth pipe, in which a guide bushing for the still smooth pipe and behind the shaft means a support bushing for the corrugated pipe are mounted in front of a shaft device equipped with a corrugated head.
  • the support sleeve is firmly connected to the shaft head of the device with the interposition of mechanically strong components.
  • the invention has for its object to make the above-described device so that the dimensions of the corrugated tube can be maintained especially with a relatively deep corrugation with increased dimensional accuracy or roundness.
  • the arranged behind the shaft means support bush which can be kept axially short, provides for the pipe already during the Wellvorgangs, in which the same is significantly burdened in the radial direction, a kind of fixed point.
  • the support sleeve ensures that the tube already at the waves, but especially after leaving the shaft means in the radial direction can not get out of its desired central position.
  • the shaft leaving the device and moved in the withdrawal direction tube has characterized over its entire length a uniform or constant curl and equally uniform or consistent dimensions. Because of the very precise guidance of the tube through the support sleeve during and after the waves, thin-walled tubes can be corrugated with particular advantage and it is also possible to produce a deeper corrugation, which is of importance for highly flexible tubes.
  • the tightly fitting to the corrugated tube support bush has the further advantage that the mounted in front of the shaft guide bushing does not have to be tight against the smooth tube, but as a pure guide element quite well over the outer diameter of the smooth tube larger inside width can have.
  • a smooth tube 1 made of metal to be provided with a transverse to its longitudinal direction corrugation is irrelevant here. It may for example consist of steel or copper or aluminum.
  • the corrugation to be generated in a shaft device 2 can be annular or helical.
  • the pipe 1 is moved, for example by means of an only schematically indicated extraction device 3 in the direction of the arrow 4 and thereby in the illustrated
  • a guide bush 5 is arranged in front of the shaft device 2, through which the smooth tube 1 is passed.
  • the emerging in the direction of movement of the shaft means 2 corrugated tube 6 is guided by a support sleeve 7, which is located immediately behind the shaft means 2.
  • the corrugated tube 6 can be wound on a spool 8.
  • the Wellerlism 10 is corresponding Fig. 2 arranged eccentrically to the axis A of the tube 1 and the corrugated tube 6.
  • the axes of Weller disk 10 and pipe 1 and 6 thus run at a distance parallel to each other.
  • the corrugated head 9 and the Weller disk 10 entrained by it are turned around the pipe 1 in the circumferential direction.
  • the projection 12 of the Wellertial 10 presses the corrugation in the tube 1, which is pushed simultaneously in the direction of the arrow 4 by the shaft means 2.
  • the support bushing 7 is arranged immediately adjacent to or in the withdrawal direction behind the shaft device 2, specifically centrically to the axis A of the tube 1 and 6, respectively. It is attached to the shaft head 9 in the device without attachment.
  • the support bushing 7 may for example consist of a plastic, such as polyethylene or polyamide, or of metal, for example a bronze alloy.
  • the support sleeve 7 surrounds the corrugated tube 6 as closely as possible, but without so tightly abut the same that the movement of the corrugated tube 6 is impaired in its longitudinal direction. It is for the corrugated tube 6 already during the corrugating process a kind of fixed point, because it is held during the shafting and also thereafter by the support sleeve 7 in a central position. Because of this function of the support sleeve 7, the guide bushing 5 no longer needs to be tight against the smooth tube 1. Is in Fig. 2 indicated by an air gap between the tube 1 and guide bush 5. The guide bush 5 does not rotate with the shaft device 2. It is accordingly supported via a pivot bearing 13 relative to the same.
  • the support bush 7 is advantageously made relatively short in the axial direction. It may, for example, have a width which, in the case of an annular corrugation, corresponds approximately to the distance of two successive wave crests or, in the case of a helical corrugation, to approximately twice the wave pitch.
