Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、パイプにバルジ加工を施す場合等に適用される液圧成形で使用するノズルの技術分野に属する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
パイプを液圧成形する場合には、被成形用パイプの内部に成形液を密封する必要があるため、被成形用パイプの端部の閉塞の仕方に種々の工夫を施している。そのうちのひとつとして、図6に示すように、ノズル100の嵌合部101を被成形用パイプPの端部内側に嵌合させると共に、ビード201を有する外型200を前記被成形用パイプPの端部外側に設け、この外型200のビード201を被成形用パイプPの端部外周面に食い込ませることにより被成形用パイプPの内周面とノズル100の嵌合部101の外周面との密着性を高めようとする従来技術▲1▼がある。
【0003】
また、別の従来技術として、特開平6−328158号公報(図7参照)に記載されているように、ノズル300の嵌合部301の先端にスライド部材302を設けると共に、このスライド部材302と嵌合部301との間にシールリング303を設け、スライド部材302をシリンダー400で駆動することにより前記シールリング303を圧縮変形させて被成形用パイプPの内周面に密着させる従来技術▲2▼がある。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところが、従来技術▲1▼では、被成形用パイプとノズルとの密着性が十分に得られず、液洩れ防止が不完全であるという問題があった。
【0005】
また、従来技術▲2▼では、スライド部材を駆動するために駆動手段(シリンダー)が必要であったために、非常に機構が複雑になるという問題があった。
【0006】
本発明が解決しようとする課題は、パイプを液圧成形する際の液洩れを、駆動手段を用いない簡単な機構の液圧成形用ノズルで確実に防止することにある。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】

【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
(実施の形態1)
実施の形態1は、解決手段1ならびに解決手段2に対応する液圧成形用ノズルである。
【0010】
図1は実施の形態1の液圧成形用ノズルを示す一部断面側面図で、まず、図1に基づいて、液圧成形用ノズルNの構成について説明する。
【0011】
前記液圧成形用ノズルNは、被成形用パイプPの端部内側に嵌合させる嵌合部1と、その嵌合部1の一端に設けられている頭部2と、で構成されていて、被成形用パイプPに噴出させる成形液の通路となる成形液噴出孔3が軸心に貫通して設けられている。
【0012】
前記嵌合部1は、前記頭部2と一体成形されている嵌合軸部11と、この嵌合軸部11の外周をその軸方向にスライド可能に設けられているスライド部材12とで構成されていて、前記嵌合軸部11は、外径が異なる3つの円筒部(以下、外径が小さい順に第1円筒部111、第2円筒部112、第3円筒部113とする)によって先細り円筒状に形成されており、前記スライド部材12は、前記嵌合軸部11の第1円筒部111と係合している内径小部121と、前記嵌合軸部11の第2円筒部112と係合している内径大部122とで円筒状に形成されている。
【0013】
また、前記嵌合軸部11は、スナップリング4が装着された溝114を第1円筒部111の先端部外周に有し、O−リング5が装着された溝115を第2円筒部112の外周に有しており、前記スナップンング4によってスライド部材12の脱落を防止し、前記O−リング5によって、嵌合軸部11の第2円筒部112とスライド部材12の内径大部122との間の密閉性を確保している。
【0014】
前記スライド部材12は、O−リング6が装着された溝123を前記内径小部121の内周に有しており、このO−リング6によって、前記嵌合軸部11の第1円筒部111とスライド部材12の内径小部121との間の密閉性を確保している。また、前記スライド部材12は、前記内径大部122の外周が、前記嵌合軸部11の第3円筒部113の外径と同径の一定外径に形成されており、前記内径小部121の外周が、先端に向けて縮径するテーパ状に形成されている。
【0015】
また、前記嵌合軸部11とスライド部材12との間には、圧抜き孔7を通して頭部2の外側の大気と連通した大気圧室8が設けられている。
【0016】
更に、前記嵌合軸部11の第3円筒部113と前記スライド部材12の内径大部122の間には、スライド部材12からの圧力で圧縮変形して被成形用パイプの内周面に密着するシールリング9が設けられている。このシールリング9は、ゴムや樹脂やウレタン等の弾性体で形成されており、外径が、非圧縮状態では前記第3円筒部113ならびに前記内径大部122の外径よりも小さく、圧縮状態では前記第3円筒部113ならびに前記内径大部122の外径よりも大きくなるようになっている。また、このシールリング9は、嵌合軸部11の第2円筒部112の外周面ならびに第1円筒部111の前面とスライド部材12の後端面にそれぞれ密着する面を有する断面長方形に形成されている。
【0017】
図2ならびに図3は実施の形態1の液圧成形用ノズルNを被成形用パイプPの端部に嵌合させた状態を示す図で、図2は被成形用パイプPに成形液Wを噴出させる前の状態を示し、図3は被成形用パイプPに成形液Wを噴出させた状態を示している。
【0018】
まず、被成形用パイプPに成形液Wを噴出させる前の状態では、被成形用パイプPの閉塞空間の内圧が大気圧に近く大気圧室8の内圧とほとんど差がないので、スライド部材12には、シールリング9を圧縮させるだけの圧力が作用しない。つまり、シールリング9は、外径が第3円筒部113ならびに前記内径大部121の外径よりも小さい状態が維持されている。
【0019】
したがって、この状態で被成形用パイプP内に成形液噴出孔3から成形液Wを噴出し始めると、最初は、圧縮成形用ノズルNの嵌合部1の外周面と被成形用パイプPの内周面との間の隙間から成形液Wが洩れることがある。しかし、成形液Wを洩れ量よりも早い速度で被成形用パイプP内に噴出することにより、被成形用パイプPの閉塞空間の内圧が徐々に上昇するので、被成形用パイプPの閉塞空間と大気圧室8との間に差圧が生じ、その差圧によってスライド部材12がシールリング9を圧縮する方向にスライドする。そしてスライド部材12によって圧縮されたシールリング9は、外径が第3円筒部113ならびに前記内径大部121の外径よりも大きくなって被成形用パイプPの内周面に密着する。なお、前記シールリング9は、嵌合軸部11の第2円筒部112の外周面ならびに第1円筒部111の前面とスライド部材12の後端面にそれぞれ密着する面を有する断面長方形であるので、シールリング9は、弾性変形量に対して高い比率で外径が大きくなって被成形用パイプPの内周面と密着するので、迅速に液洩れを防止できる。
【0020】
シールリング9が被成形用パイプPの内周面に密着すると、被成形用パイプPの閉塞空間の内圧が更に大きくなるので、シールリング9は更にスライド部材12によって圧縮され、被成形用パイプPの内周面との密着性を高める。これにより、被成形用パイプP内の成形液Wを完全に密封することができる。
【0021】
このように、本実施の形態1では、成形液Wの噴出時に被成形用パイプPの閉塞空間と大気圧室8との間に生じる差圧を利用して被成形用パイプP内に成形液Wを密封することができるので、駆動手段を用いない簡単な機構の液圧成形用ノズルNでありながら、被成形用パイプPを液圧成形する際の液洩れを確実に防止することができるという効果が得られる。
【0022】
また、被成形用パイプPの端部内側に嵌合される嵌合軸部11とスライド部材12との間には、2つのO−リング5,6が大気圧室8を挟むようにして設けられているので、被成形用パイプPに噴出した成形液Wが大気圧室8に浸入するのを確実に防止することもできる。
【0023】
更に、シールリング9は、非圧縮状態では外径が第3円筒部113ならびに前記内径大部121の外径よりも小さいものを使用したので、被成形用パイプPの端部に嵌合させる際に、シールリング9が被成形用パイプPの内周面と擦れ合って摩耗したり傷付いたりしない。
【0024】
(その他の実施の形態)
実施の形態1では、断面形状が長方形のシールリング9を用いたが、シールリングの断面形状は長方形に限定されない。例えば、図4に示すように、スライド部材12の内径大部122の後端面122aを外側に傾いた傾斜面にすると共に、シールリング9aの断面形状を、この後端面122aに対応した傾斜面を有する台形形状にし、シールリング9aがスライド部材12のスライド時に、その後端面122aによって外側に押し上げられるようにしてもよい。そうすることにより、被成形用パイプPの閉塞空間と大気圧室8間の差圧が小さい時でもシールリング9aが被成形用パイプPの内周面と密着し易くなる。また、図5に示すように、シールリング9bに断面円形のO−リングを用い、コストの削減を図るようにしてもよい。
【0025】
【発明の効果】

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
(Embodiment 1)
The first embodiment is a hydraulic forming nozzle corresponding to the solving means 1 and the solving means 2.
[0010]
FIG. 1 is a partial cross-sectional side view showing the hydraulic forming nozzle of the first embodiment. First, the configuration of the hydraulic forming nozzle N will be described with reference to FIG.
[0011]
The hydroforming nozzle N is composed of a fitting portion 1 that is fitted inside the end portion of the pipe P to be molded, and a head portion 2 that is provided at one end of the fitting portion 1. A molding liquid ejection hole 3 serving as a passage for the molding liquid ejected to the molding pipe P is provided through the shaft.
[0012]
The fitting portion 1 includes a fitting shaft portion 11 that is integrally formed with the head portion 2 and a slide member 12 that is provided on the outer periphery of the fitting shaft portion 11 so as to be slidable in the axial direction. The fitting shaft portion 11 is tapered by three cylindrical portions having different outer diameters (hereinafter referred to as a first cylindrical portion 111, a second cylindrical portion 112, and a third cylindrical portion 113 in order of decreasing outer diameter). The slide member 12 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and includes a small inner diameter portion 121 engaged with the first cylindrical portion 111 of the fitting shaft portion 11 and a second cylindrical portion 112 of the fitting shaft portion 11. And is formed in a cylindrical shape with a large inner diameter portion 122 engaged therewith.
[0013]
The fitting shaft portion 11 has a groove 114 in which the snap ring 4 is mounted on the outer periphery of the distal end portion of the first cylindrical portion 111, and a groove 115 in which the O-ring 5 is mounted on the second cylindrical portion 112. The slide member 12 is prevented from falling off by the snapping 4, and the second cylindrical portion 112 of the fitting shaft portion 11 and the large inner diameter portion 122 of the slide member 12 are formed by the O-ring 5. The airtightness between is secured.
[0014]
The slide member 12 has a groove 123 in which the O-ring 6 is mounted on the inner periphery of the small inner diameter portion 121, and the first cylindrical portion 111 of the fitting shaft portion 11 is formed by the O-ring 6. And a sealing property between the small inner diameter portion 121 of the slide member 12 are ensured. Further, the slide member 12 has an outer periphery of the large inner diameter portion 122 formed to have a constant outer diameter that is the same as the outer diameter of the third cylindrical portion 113 of the fitting shaft portion 11, and the small inner diameter portion 121. The outer periphery of each is formed in a taper shape with a diameter reduced toward the tip.
[0015]
Further, an atmospheric pressure chamber 8 communicating with the atmosphere outside the head 2 through the pressure release hole 7 is provided between the fitting shaft portion 11 and the slide member 12.
[0016]
Further, between the third cylindrical portion 113 of the fitting shaft portion 11 and the inner diameter large portion 122 of the slide member 12, it is compressed and deformed by the pressure from the slide member 12 and is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the molding pipe. A sealing ring 9 is provided. The seal ring 9 is formed of an elastic body such as rubber, resin, or urethane, and has an outer diameter that is smaller than the outer diameter of the third cylindrical portion 113 and the large inner diameter portion 122 in a non-compressed state. Then, it becomes larger than the outer diameter of the third cylindrical portion 113 and the large inner diameter portion 122. In addition, the seal ring 9 is formed in a rectangular cross section having a surface that closely contacts the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical portion 112 of the fitting shaft portion 11 and the front surface of the first cylindrical portion 111 and the rear end surface of the slide member 12. Yes.
[0017]
2 and 3 are views showing a state in which the hydraulic pressure forming nozzle N of Embodiment 1 is fitted to the end of the pipe P for molding, and FIG. 2 shows the molding liquid W applied to the pipe P for molding. FIG. 3 shows a state before the ejection, and FIG. 3 shows a state where the molding liquid W is ejected to the molding pipe P.
[0018]
First, in a state before the molding liquid W is ejected to the molding pipe P, the internal pressure of the closed space of the molding pipe P is close to the atmospheric pressure and is not substantially different from the internal pressure of the atmospheric pressure chamber 8. The pressure sufficient to compress the seal ring 9 does not act on the. That is, the seal ring 9 is maintained in a state where the outer diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the third cylindrical portion 113 and the large inner diameter portion 121.
[0019]
Accordingly, when the molding liquid W starts to be ejected from the molding liquid ejection hole 3 into the molding pipe P in this state, the outer peripheral surface of the fitting portion 1 of the compression molding nozzle N and the molding pipe P are initially set. The molding liquid W may leak from the gap between the inner peripheral surface. However, since the molding liquid W is ejected into the molding pipe P at a speed faster than the leakage amount, the internal pressure of the molding space of the molding pipe P gradually increases. And the atmospheric pressure chamber 8 generate a differential pressure, and the slide member 12 slides in a direction in which the seal ring 9 is compressed by the differential pressure. The seal ring 9 compressed by the slide member 12 has an outer diameter larger than the outer diameters of the third cylindrical portion 113 and the inner diameter large portion 121 and is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the molding pipe P. The seal ring 9 has a rectangular cross section having a surface that closely contacts the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical portion 112 of the fitting shaft portion 11 and the front surface of the first cylindrical portion 111 and the rear end surface of the slide member 12. Since the outer diameter of the seal ring 9 increases at a high ratio with respect to the amount of elastic deformation and comes into close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the molding pipe P, liquid leakage can be prevented quickly.
[0020]
When the seal ring 9 comes into close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the molding pipe P, the internal pressure in the closed space of the molding pipe P further increases, so that the sealing ring 9 is further compressed by the slide member 12 and the molding pipe P Increases the adhesion with the inner peripheral surface of. Thereby, the molding liquid W in the pipe P for molding can be completely sealed.
[0021]
As described above, in the first embodiment, the molding liquid is formed in the molding pipe P by utilizing the differential pressure generated between the closed space of the molding pipe P and the atmospheric pressure chamber 8 when the molding liquid W is ejected. Since W can be sealed, it is possible to reliably prevent liquid leakage when the pipe P to be molded is formed by hydraulic forming, even though it is a hydraulic forming nozzle N having a simple mechanism that does not use driving means. The effect is obtained.

Furthermore, since the seal ring 9 used in the non-compressed state has an outer diameter smaller than the outer diameters of the third cylindrical portion 113 and the inner diameter large portion 121, when the seal ring 9 is fitted to the end of the pipe P for molding. Moreover, the seal ring 9 does not rub against the inner peripheral surface of the molding pipe P and is not worn or damaged.
[0024]
(Other embodiments)
In Embodiment 1, the seal ring 9 having a rectangular cross-sectional shape is used, but the cross-sectional shape of the seal ring is not limited to a rectangular shape. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the rear end surface 122a of the large inner diameter portion 122 of the slide member 12 is an inclined surface inclined outward, and the cross-sectional shape of the seal ring 9a is an inclined surface corresponding to the rear end surface 122a. The sealing ring 9a may be pushed upward by the rear end face 122a when the sliding member 12 slides. By doing so, even when the pressure difference between the closed space of the molding pipe P and the atmospheric pressure chamber 8 is small, the seal ring 9a can be easily adhered to the inner peripheral surface of the molding pipe P. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, an O-ring having a circular cross section may be used for the seal ring 9b to reduce the cost.
