The present invention relates to a method of forming bellows tubing and more particularly to such a method adapted to be employed in conjunction with the forming ma- 5, chine disclosed in my Patent No. 1,689,620, .grantedOCtoberZdO, 1928. The present in-- vention is a continuation in part of that disclosed and claimed in my earlier application Serial No. 221,570, filed September 23, 1927, According to the present. invention, the tube is first sealed at opposite ends with an opening or passage provided in one end for the introduction of fluid pressure during the forming operation. The end fitting provided with the fluid pressure passage projects slightly beyond the outer diameter of the tube to provide a shoulder for engagement during the. forming operation. lin certain cases the tube may be provided with a fitting upon both ends and in other cases the-tube may be left in its initial cupped form and sealed with'a fitting only at the open end. in either case, however, this method of pro: cedure has decided advantages due in part to the fact that the joint formed between the fitting and the tube end is automatically tested by the high pressures employed during the forming operation, and in part to the fact that the operation of sealing the end of the tube is much simplified by applying the fitting to the plain tube before formation of the bellows folds rather than thereafter.
In the drawings illustrating the various steps carrying out the present invention,

Fig. ll, he complete tube assembly prior to forming; and
Fig. 12, the completed bellows assembly at with the thickness of the bellows wall exaggerated for purpose of illustration.
Referring to the illustrated embodiment of the invention, acupped tube is indicated at 20. This tube may be drawn in the usual re manner to the desired dimensions and with a grained size and temper properly suited for the work which it must undergo in the tormetion of the bellows folds. After the completion of the cupped drawn tube which may '15 approximate one inch in diameter with a length oi ten inches and a wall thickness of seven-thousandths of an inch, the closed end is removed as indicated in Fig. 2, and thereafter the opposite ends of the tube are spun an outwardly at 22 and 23 to form an annular -oiiset portion, as indicated in Fig. 3. ll'iis spinning may be accomplished through the a e within the a 7 employment of a spinning roll indicated at 24, which is moved transversely of the axis of the tube during a relative rotation of the tube and roll. The annular enlargement upon opposite ends of the tube is designed for the reception of an end fitting 26 which is somewhat larger in diameter than the external diameter of the tube but is received within the annular enlargement, seating against the shoulder formed thereon. This end fitting, as indicated in Fig. 4, may comprise a ribbed disk 28 having a hollow stud 30 riveted centrally therein, as indicated. The fittin at the opposite end may be provided wit a larger stud 32. After assembly of the head or disk within the'outer enlarged end of the tube, the latter is spun inwardly at 34 and 10 the head is thereafter sealed by solder 36 which serves not only to seal the annular joint between the edge of the disk and the tube end, but also the joint between the disk and stud 30, the annular rib- 38 formed intermediate the disk serving to promote the flow of solder toward the two joints. After completion of the tube assembly, as shown in Fig. 5, the stud 32 being closed to hermetically seal one end of the tube, the assembly is mounted within a forming machine of the type disclosed in the patent referred to, with the end forming plates 40 located behind the shoulder 42, and the tube contracted into a series of bellows folds to produce the bellows indicated at i l in Fig. 6.
In the method as outlined in Figs. 7 to 12 inclusive, a tube is first shaped at the closed end to form the stepped indentation 52. 00- operating with this stepped indentation is a valve member 54 having a more or less resilient locking portion 56 projecting from the bottom which is adapted to be forced into .the lowest portion 58 of the indentation 52 and upon pressure being applied, spread outwardly, as shown in Fig. 9, to lock the portion 56 rigidly within the lowermost recess 58. Thereafter the joint may be sealed with solder as indicated at 60. Subsequent to the application of the valve to the closed end of the tube, the open end is spun outwardly at 62 for the reception of a head 64- which is indicated as provided with a threaded stud 66 and a projecting ring 68 adapted for the reception of a tube 70 which acts as a stop to limit the movement of the bellows in collapsed position. As shown more particularly in Fig. 11, the stop tube is assembled with the head 64. and is located in assembled position by spinning or flanging the ring 68 outwardly at 72. Thereafter the head and stop assembly is inserted in the portion 62 of the tube which is then turned inwardly at 7 4 and soldered at 76 to hermetically seal the tube except for the provision of the fluid passage 78. Thereafter the completed bellows assembly 80 is formed in the machine as previously described.
It will be evident that in this alternative mode of procedure only one end of the tube is left open for closure with an end fitting. Obviously, if no fitting was desired at 'the closed end of the tube, it would be essential only to apply a single end fitting to the open end, thus eliminating the necessity of one end fitting and the joint created thereby.
With this method, the end fitting in each case is applied prior to the formation of the bellows, and during such formation the relatively high fluid pressure employed serves as a means for automatically testing not only the tube structure itself, but the strength and tightness of the joint between the end of the tube and the fitting. Inasmuch as the pressures ordinarily employed are on the order of 500 ounds per square inch and upwards, it
will e evident that an improperly ointed end fitting will cause failure of pressure and failure of the forming operation, as well as a weak or porous tube structure.
Not only does such a method permit testing of the end joint during the formation of the bellows and simplify the application of the end fitting due to its application to the plain tube, but in addition, this method permits the employment of an end fitting having a diameter on the order of the initial tube rather than the outer diameter of the finished bellows. This is important not only because it reduces the length of the circumferential joint, but also because a smaller and lighter fitting may be employed. In many uses for devices of this character, especially where eX- treme sensitivity is required, the weight of the bellows structure is governed to a substantial extent by the character and size of the end fitting. In usual practice, where the end fittings are applied after the formation of the bellows folds, it has not been the usual custom to employ end fittings substantially smaller than the diameter of the outer convolution, the fittings as a rule being mounted upon and secured to the last convolution in a manner which will be obvious to those skilled in the art.
