Patented Mar. 31, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE MACHINE FOR FORMING THREADS ON IWETAL TUBING 8 Claims.
My invention has reference to a machine for forming threads on metal tubing, and relates more specially to operations of that nature on what is known as fixture brass tubing, and other thin wall tubing of that character. Great difficulty is encountered in cutting a screw thread on a piece of tubing of the kind named on account of the tubing being provided with a high finish, such as nickel or chromium, which is liable to be damaged by holding the tubing in a vise or other gripping device. There is also danger of jamming or bending the tubing, on account of its comparative light weight. By means of said invention the necessity of gripping the tubing in any way is entirely done away with.
It is sometimes necessary or desirable to cut fresh threads on the end of a tube already estab lished in a wall or other part of a building, and this can be easily. done by the use of said invention, and on a piece of tubing which projects only a fractional part of an inch from the wall. It is a convenient plumbers tool, for work on the job under all conditions.
The device includes a hand-operated tool, which includes a thread-cutting apparatus, the suporting shaft for which is engageable with the end of a section of tubing from the inside thereof while the thread forming operation is proceeding. Nipples and other short pieces of tubing can also be positioned thereon and provided with a thread. The dies in the thread-cutting apparatus are interchangeable for use with sections of tubing of difierent diameters, and other parts of the machine are also interchangeable to conform therewith.
The above-named, and other features and advantages of the invention will more fully appear from the following specification taken in connection' with the accompanying drawing, in which:-
Fig. 1 shows the invention in side view.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal medial section thereof.
Fig. 3 shows a modified form of the expansion devices, detached.
Fig. 4 is adetail of a washer 33, in position on the shaft 5.
The reference number 5 indicates a spindle or shaft, reduced at one end into a threaded pin 6, on which is seated a nut l. Held in place on said shaft by the nut is a taper member 8, provided at its inner end with a notch 9, engaged by a pin H! fixed in said shaft. By this means the movement of the part 8 inwardly is limited, and said part is also rotatable with the shaft, or held from rotation therewith. On the outside of the member 8 is an expansion mandrel ll, provided in its walls with alternately oppositely disposed slots I 2, lending a dgree of resiliency thereto. The inner wall of the mandrel is tapered to coincide with the taper of the part 8, and the outer 5 wall of said mandrel is concentric with the shaft 5, and adapted to receive the end of a section of tubing, as indicated at l3 in Fig. 2. Upon the mandrel H being forced upon the member 8 the walls of the mandrel are spread, until the 10 inner wall of'the tubing is engaged thereby, and held rigidly connected therewith. The member 8 is also provided with a pin l5, entering one of the slots l2 in the mandrel, and holding the same from accidental release from the taper member. 1
Slidable on the shaft 5 is a sleeve I6, provided on its outer wall with a thread I1, engagedv by a similar thread in the bore of a hub l8, projected from a die-mounting 19, in which is secured a die-ring 20. Openings 2| are providedin said mounting, by means of which it can be rotated on the sleeve l6, for a gradual feed thereof when in operation. The shaft 5 is also provided with a key-way 22, in which is movable a key 23, fixed in the sleeve l6, whereby said sleeve'is caused to rotate with the shaft, or is held from turning therewith when the shaft is stationary.
At the. opposite end of the shaft 5 from the expansion devices is a screw thread 25, on the end of which is fixed a collar 26, connected with a head 21, provided with a lateral bore 28, for use with a rod or other tool when it is desired to hold the shaft from turning. There is also mounted on said thread a travelling nut 29, provided with openings 30 for use with a tool, in turning said nut. When the nut is turned to move inwardly on the shaft 5 it comes in contact with the inner end of the sleeve [6, and a continued rotation thereof brings said sleeve into contact with the inner end of the mandrel II, which is thereby moved outwardly, with the expansion effect hereinbefore described. The frictional engagement of the nut with the end of the sleeve It also serves to lock said parts from release.
The threads on the sleeve l6 are of finer pitch than those on the shaft 5, and are similar to those of the thread cutting dies. The length of the thread on said sleeve is such that threads can 0 be cut on a piece of tubing as far as the end of the shaft 5 extends into the same.
When a thread is to be cut on the end of a piece of tubing, such tubing is supported on a bench or other support without any clamping or 55 gripping means, and the end of the shaft 5, with the expansion devices thereon in non-expanded position, inserted in the end of the tubing. The shaft is then held from turning by means of the head 21, and the nut 29 rotated to actuate the sleeve 15, and cause the expansion operation at the outer end thereof. When the mandrel is rigidly engaged with the inner wall of the tubing the die-mounting I9 is turned until the threads in the die 20 engage the end of the tubing, and a continued rotation of the die serves to produce a thread on the end of the tubing for the desired distance. The same rod or bar can be employed for turning the die-holder that is used for the nut 29. In the threading operation the piece of tubing, of whatever length, is held from turning by means of the shaft 5 anchored therein, and there is no need of holding the tubing in a vise or other clamping means. There is therefore no necessity for marring or otherwise injuring the finish on the outer wall of the tubing, or of distorting the same by gripping devices attached'thereto, as is now the case.
At 3| is shown a ring section of tubing, such as are used for nipples, in position on the mandrel I I. When thus held in rigid position threads can be cut thereon as before described. Short sections of tubing can be similarly threaded. In case a piece of tubing projects a little ways beyond a wall, as indicated by the line a:-x of Fig. 2, the end of the tool can be secured in place in the tube in the manner described, and the threadcutting operation carried on, with the dies operating on the tubing to a point close to the wall. In this way a piece of tubing projecting'a halfinch or less from a fixture can be provided with a thread on its outer surface, for use with a nut or other connections, and without disturbing the tubing or wall in any way.
When it is desired to release the tool from a piece of tubing, the nut 29 is moved along the shaft 5 away from the sleeve l6, and a sharp blow given to the outer face of the head 21, tending to separate the member 8 and mandrel II, and loosen the same from the tubing. It is not necessary to have the end of the tubingsupported on the mandrel for the full length of such mandrel, as the insertion thereof into the tubing for a short distance only will serve to support the tubing sufiiciently, after the mandrel has been expanded and clamped in position.
There is shown interposed between the outer end of the casing l6 and mandrel H a washer 33, provided with a notch 34, by means whereof it can be slipped over the pin III. In some cases the diameter of the bore of the mandrel ll may be greater than that of the sleeve [6, so that they will fail to contact, but by use of a washer 33 of suflicient outer diameter this defect can be remedied. The diameters of thin wall tubing of the kind mentioned vary from one inch to two inch, with variations of one-eighth inch between said sizes, and taper members and mandrels of greater size can also be used, as shown in Fig. 3, When it is desired to change the expansion tools the nut I is removed, and the member 8 slipped off the end of the shaft 5, with the mandrel connected therewith. Another taper member and mandrel therefor are then substituted for the ones removed. Dies with cutting diameters conforming to the various sizes of tubing are also used interchangeably in the mounting I9. Washers 33 of greater diameters will also have to be used with the larger sizes of tubing.
The tool can also be used for cutting threads on tubing of extra large sizes or on sizes less" than those mentioned, by forming the tool of correspondingly larger or smaller dimensions.
The outer wall of the mandrel is parallel with the wall of the tubing, and it will be noted that when the expansion elements are firmly engaged in the end of a piece of tubing, they provide an anchorage therein for the tool, the other end of which can be supported by the operator. In turning the nut 29 in a direction to expand the mandrel it is the practice to hold the head 2'! from rotation with one hand and turn the nut 21 with the other, or with a tool used for that purpose. In the thread cutting operation the head 21 can still be held by one hand and the threading tool turned by the other. In these operations, the same bar or rod can be used for turning the nut 29 and mounting I9.
Other changes and variations in the construction and arrangement of the tool can be made besides those noted herein, without departing from the scope of the invention.
