Embodiment 1
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a configuration of a bending apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment. The pipe bending apparatus 1 performs a bending process at one portion on the front side in the traveling direction while moving a metal pipe in the axial direction thereof. The bending apparatus 1 includes a shaft pressing die 11, a core metal 12, a pressure die 13, a wrinkle pressing die 14, a bending die 20, and a clamp die 30. The bending apparatus 1 is provided with a metal pipe 100 to be processed.

  The shaft pushing die 11 is advanced and retracted along the direction of arrow A by a power source (not shown). When bending the tube 100, the axial push die 11 advances in the direction of arrow A and pushes the tube 100. The direction of the arrow A coincides with the direction of the axis 101 of the tube 100.

  The core metal 12 is inserted into the tube 100 and suppresses buckling deformation of the tube 100 during bending. The cored bar 12 is a cylindrical metal, and the outer diameter of the cored bar 12 and the inner diameter of the tube 100 coincide with each other with a predetermined clearance. Therefore, the cored bar 12 and the tube 100 are engaged so as not to rattle greatly. The cored bar 12 is locked to the bending device 1.

  The pressure die 13 advances and retreats along the direction of arrow A while pressing the outer periphery of the tube 100. When bending the tube 100, the pressure die 13 moves in the direction of arrow A in synchronization with the axial push die 11 while pressing the outer periphery of the tube 100.

  The wrinkle pressing die 14 is an outer peripheral portion of the tube 100 in which the core metal 12 is inserted, and presses a portion adjacent to a bending die 20 described later. When bending the tube 100, the tube 100 moves in the plus direction of the arrow A at a predetermined speed. Further, the wrinkle pressing die 14 is fixed to the bending device 1. For this reason, while the tube 100 is being bent, the wrinkle pressing die 14 and the tube 100 are rubbed.

  The bending die 20 has a groove corresponding to the outer peripheral portion of the tube 100, and is a mold for bending the tube 100 by placing the tube 100 along the bending die 20. The bending die 20 rotates about an axis C perpendicular to a plane parallel to the central axis of the tube 100. When bending the tube 100, the bending die 20 rotates in the direction of arrow B about the axis C.

  The clamp die 30 sandwiches a part of the outer peripheral portion of the tube 100 together with the bending die 20. The clamp mold 30 rotates about the axis C. When bending the tube 100, the clamp die 30 rotates in the direction of the arrow B around the axis C in synchronization with the bending die 20 while holding the tube 100 together with the bending die 20.

  In summary, when bending the pipe 100 using the bending apparatus 1, the following procedure is performed. First, the bending apparatus 1 is set to an initial state. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the pressure die 13, the bending die 20, and the clamp die 30 are set at positions along the axis 101 of the tube 100. Next, the core metal 12 is inserted into the tube 100 to install the shaft pressing die 11, and the tube 100 is sandwiched between the pressure die 13, the wrinkle holding die 14, the bending die 20, and the clamp die 30.

  Subsequently, bending is performed as shown in FIG. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing a bending state of the bending apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment. In the bending apparatus 1, the axial push die 11 advances in the direction of arrow A, and the pressure die 13 advances in the direction of arrow A while holding the tube 100. Further, as the shaft pressing die 11 and the pressure die 13 advance in the plus direction of the arrow A, the bending die 20 and the clamp die 30 rotate in the direction of the arrow B around the axis C.

  When the bending device 1 performs such an operation, the tube 100 is bent into a shape along the bending die 20 while being pressed by the pressure die 13 and the clamp die 30.

  Although details will be described later, in the first embodiment, the clamp mold 30 includes a first clamp mold 40 and a second clamp mold 50. The first clamp die 40 is used when the vicinity of the end of the tube 100 is bent. Further, the second clamp die 50 is used when bending other than the vicinity of the end of the tube 100.

  Next, details of the bending die 20 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG. 3 is a plan view of the bending die 20 according to the first embodiment. The bending die 20 has a hole 21, a bending groove 22, a first groove 23, and a second groove 24. The hole 21 engages with a shaft C provided in the bending apparatus 1. When the bending die 20 is mounted on the bending device 1 at the axis C, the bending die 20 is rotatable in the bending device 1. The bending groove 22 has a shape corresponding to a half circular arc on the outer periphery of the tube 100, and the groove is formed on the circular arc around the hole 21. The bending groove 22 is a semicircular groove and is formed in a range from the end 22a to the end 22b.

The second groove 24 has a shape corresponding to an arc smaller than half of the outer periphery of the tube 100, and the bottom of the groove has an arc shape common to the bending groove 22 and the first groove 23. However, the second groove 24 has a shape that is wider than the arc corresponding to the outer periphery of the tube 100 as it goes to the edge.

  Here, the details of the second groove 24 will be described. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the bending groove 20 in the second groove 24. FIG. 5 shows a cross section V in FIG. Moreover, in FIG. 5, the outer periphery shape of the pipe | tube 100 is shown with the dashed-two dotted line. The 2nd groove | channel 24 is exhibiting the shape which supports the pipe | tube 100 in the range of the position 24a to the position 24b.

The angles E2 formed by the holes 21 of the bending mold 20 and the lines 25 parallel to each other are preferably 25 degrees or more and 65 degrees or less. In the first embodiment, the angle E1 is 30 degrees and the angle E2 is 45 degrees. Further, from the position 24a to the edge of the groove, the tangent line of the second groove 24 at the position 24a is extended straight. Similarly, from the position 24b to the edge of the groove, the tangent line of the second groove 24 at the position 24b is extended straight. Thus, the second groove 24 forms a space 24c and a space 24d while supporting a part of the arc of the tube 100. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the second groove 24 is formed without a step difference from the first groove 23.

When bending the vicinity of the end of the tube 100, it is necessary to sufficiently maintain the tip portion rather than the bent portion, that is, the range from the bent portion to the end of the tube 100. If the holding is not sufficient, the end of the tube 100 may be unintentionally deformed during bending. In the first embodiment, when the vicinity of the end of the tube 100 is bent, the first clamp die 40 is used.

Therefore, in the range sandwiched between the first groove 23 of the bending die 20 and the third groove 43 of the first clamp die 40, the tube 100 is sandwiched on the entire outer periphery or the entire arc.

  Similarly, the second groove 24 of the bending die 20 and the fourth groove of the first clamp die 40 are in a corresponding relationship. With reference to FIG. 9, the details of the portion sandwiched between the second groove 24 and the fourth groove 44 will be described. FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view showing a clamped state of the tube 100 by the bending die 20 and the first clamp die 40 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 9 shows a cross-sectional view taken along a cross-section IX in FIG. As shown in FIG. 9, the tube 100 is sandwiched between the second groove 24 of the bending die 20 and the fourth groove 44 of the first clamp die 40. The second groove 24 holds a range from the position 24a to the position 24b, which is a range smaller than half of the arc of the tube 100. On the other hand, in the first clamp mold 40, the fourth groove 44 holds half of the arc of the tube 100, and the claw 41 and the claw 42 are fitted in the space 24 c and the space 24 d to hold the tube 100.
