Abstract

Rolling of high-fin integral finned tube from stainless steel or other difficult to form material, in two operations with an annealing step between rolling operations. Each rolling operation quickly forms narrow helical grooves to displace metal into wide helical ribs or rib portions, followed by more gradual widening and deepening of the grooves with additional metal displacement, and lateral application of pressure to the ribs to form it to required fin shape. [US3795125A]

Claims (9)

41228/3 CLAIMS ■ ." : j -'ί.· thick tip
1. The method of forming/fins of at least .100" fin height and of predetermined pitch on tubes of dlfflcnl-to—roll metal each as stainless ateel which comprises forming partial fins of substantially leas than final height and of less than aald predetermined pitch in a first operation by supporting the tubes on mandrels and applying pressure of metal deforming intensity to limited aonea radially inwardly and progressively around the tubes in helical paths of less than aald predetermined pitch to produce partially formed fins, annealing the tubes, and providing a second forming operation by supporting the tubes on a mandrel and applying pressure of metal deforming intensity to limited zones both at the bottom of the apacea between partially formed fine and to the aides of the partially formed Una along helical paths of aald predetermined pitch to displace metal from the bottom of the spaces between adjacent fine, and to displace metal laterally of the fins to 1 increase the outside diameter of the fin crests, both metal displacements serving to Increase the height of the Individual fins.
2. She method of claim 1 which comprises in each forming operation both before and after/the annealing step, Initially applying pressure to relatively narrow zones to form relatively deep narrow grooves leaving relatively vide ribs formed partially of materiel of the tubes displaced by formation of the grooves, and thereafter gradually widening the acnes of pressure application and deepening the grooves to displace additional material into the ribs and to apply pressure to the of the ribs to form ribs in the first operation and 41228/2 adjacent the outer edge portion thereof.
3. ¾e method of claim 2 in which the increase in the pitch of fin convolutions formed by the second operation over the pitch of rib convolutions formed by the first operatio is about 3-5$.
4. * The method of claim 1, which comprises using a set of axially aligned discs in each operation, the discs of each set having the first ew discs provided with rounded peripheral portions of a predetermined small radius in radial cross-section and of a predetermined substantial increase in diameter from disc to disc whereby to penetrate into the material of the tube quickl to substantial depths9 the remainder of the discs of each se having peripheral portions of progressively greater radius of curvature in cross-eection and of substantially less increase in diameter from disc to disc, whereby in each rollin operation a relatively thick rib portio of material is displaced from the tube material and thereafter shaped into a narrower highe cross-sectional shape,
5. 5?he method of forming fins on the exterior of metal tu¾es in which the fins are characterized by exceptional height and a thickness at the crest which is at least half the thickness adjacent the root which corartiises repeatedly applying pressure in a first rolling operation to adjacent narro zones progressively around the tube in a helical path to penedsrate into the tube material and to initially displace a substantial quantity of metal into a helical, short, thick rib and therea er progress 41228/2 terminating the application of pressure and annealing the tube, and therea ter in a second rolling operatio repeatedly applying pressure in the helical spaces between rib convolution in narrow zones with increased penetration i to the tube material to displace a further substantial quantity of material into the rib, and finally displacing material by penetrating into the tube material over zones of increased width at a reduced rate of penetration tinto the tube material while applying lateral pressure to shape the rib into a fin of ther required dimension,
6. * She method of claim 5 which comprises a the start of each rib forming operation, applying pressure to obtain a metal displacing penetration into the tube material several times as great as the penetration obtained upon subsequen application o pressure.
7. The method of claim 6 in which the fin heigh is produced in the first operation is at least .060* and in the second operation is at least •lOO"· -
8. fhe method of claim 6 in which the fin height produced in the first operation is at least *075n and i the second operation is at least •H5W·
9. The method as defined in claim 5, which comprises the step of increasing the pitch of fin convolutions between successive volting operations, in which the increase of pitch between successive rolling operations is about 5-5 · For the Applicants HE:PE
