- This invention pertains to a mandrel which is contractable from a normal size for insertion in a tube to support it while being pushed through a constricting die.
- Standard tube making machines frequently do not form tubes; to close tolerances.

6 Claims. (Cl. 205-7) This invention pertains to a mandrel which is contractable from a normal size for insertion in a tube to support it while being pushed through a constricting die.
Standard tube making machines frequently do not form tubes; to close tolerances. For certain applications, however, it is important that the dimensions of tube diameter and particularly external tube diameter be quite exact, such for example as when such tubes are to be bent in bending machines of some types. Otherwise it is found that the portion of a tube at the inner side of a bend, particularly if of small radius, will be creased or corrugated, which is undesirable. It has therefore been the practice to constrict oversize tubes by a sizing operation where exact dimensions are required. The sizing is accomplished by forcing the tube through a constricting die of proper size. In such operations it has been customary' to clamp the tube end in some fashion, which would prevent the clamped end of the tube from passing through the constricting die. It was therefore necessary to cut off and discard the gripped end of the tube.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a mandrel which will engage a tube end both to support hand to push the tube through a constricting die which will enable the entire tube to be pushed through the die, so as to eliminate the necessity of cutting off a piece of the tube end, which both wastes tubing and requires an extra operation following the sizing operation.
More specifically it is an object to provide a resiliently contractable mandrel which can be fitted into an end of a .tube to be constricted, and which will abut the tube end so as to push it through the constricting die, but which is small enough so that the mandrel supported portion of the tube can be moved through the die, and which will contract during such movement so as to enable the mandrel supported portion of the tube to be constricted.
A further object is to provide such a contractable mandrel which is of simple construction and economical to manufacture.
Another object is to provide such a mandrel which can be inserted readily into a tube prior to constriction of the tube, which will support the tube adequately for pushing it through a constricting die, and which can be removed easily from the constricted tube following the sizing operation.
These objects can be accomplished by a mandrel incorporating a segmented head, the segments of which are received respectively between the fins of a resilient spider, deformable to enable the segments to contract collectively. The cluster of segments is integrated by encircling bands, and the segments have bosses cooperating to abut a tube end' for exerting on it thrust in a direction lengthwise of the tube.
Figure 1 is a top perspective view of tube constricting apparatus utilizing" a contractable ram mandrel, parts of such apparatus being broken away.
. Figure 2 is a transverse sectional view through the mandrel, taken on line 22 of Figure 3, and Figure 3 is a side elevation view of the mandrel with the segmented head being shown in section along line 3-3 of Figure 2.
The sizing apparatus comprises a bed 1 on one end of which is mounted the constricting die 2. This die may be shifted along ways 3 to an appropriate location, depending upon the length of the tube T to be sized, and secured in the proper adjusted position by a latch 4 engageable with an appropriate cleat 5. At the other end of the-bed 1 a fluid pressure cylinder 6 is mounted, in which is received a piston for the purpose of reciprocating the piston rod 7 of the ram.
The tube T is pushed through the constricting die 2 by the mandrel M shown generally in Figure l and in detail inFigures 2. and 3. This mandrel is engaged with the tube and is supported and reciprocated by a connecting bar 8 extending between the mandrel and a reciprocable carriage 9. This carriage supports one end of the connecting bar 8 and is connected to the end of connecting rod 7 to transmit reciprocatory motion to the connecting bar. The carriage is guided for movement on the tracks 10. For the purposes of the present invention it is assumed that the constricting die, the ram, the connecting bar and the carriage described above are all conventional. This invention is directed to the particular type of tube supporting anddriving mandrel M.
The mandrel includes a shank 11 having a hollow end which can receive a complemental end of a connecting bar 8' and be connected to it by a bayonet joint incorporating the angle slots 12 capable of receiving pins projecting radially from the end of connecting bar 8. The mandrel shank may be. secured to the connecting bar against relative rotation by a set screw 13.
. The important structure of the mandrel is carried by the shank ll and includes a contractable mandrel head H in'sertable within the end of the tube T upon contraction. This head preferably is of segmented type incorporating a plurality of hard and preferably metal segments 14 arranged in a cluster and resiliently mounted. As shown best in FigureZ, each of the segments is of arcuate shape, but is of considerable'radial extent. Such segments are intergrated by one or more encircling bands, two 0-- rings 15 of elastomer material being shown as confining the. segments. Such rings are spaced axially of the segments, and the outer sides of the segments are grooved to receive such rings.
The segments14 are clustered about a rod tip 16 pro-- The jecting axially from the shank 11 of the mandrel. segments are mounted for resilient radial movement relative to the rod tip by interposing between such tip and the segments a spider of elastomer material including an annular hub 17 closely embracing the rod tip 16 and having circumferentially spaced radial fins 1'8 projecting radially About the root of the rod tip 16 is a backingflange 19 against which the ends of the segments 14 abut. This-- flange is integral with the shank 11 so that prmsure exerted by the pistonlwithincylinder 6 and transmitted through the connecting bar 8 to the mandrel may in turn be transmitted by the flange 19 directly to the segments 14.
Patented July 5, 1960:
The elastomer material of which the Such segments maytransmit this thrust force to the tube by bosses 20, projecting outward from the outer sides of the mandrel head segments adjacent to the flange 19, which can abut the tube end. The segments are retained on the rod tip by provision of an annular rib 21 adjacent to the flange 19 portions of which rib are received in notches or grooves 22 formed in the inner sides of the segments 14.
Prior to insertion of the segmented mandrel head H into a tube end, the resilient'spider 17, 18 will be substantially relaxed, so as toh'old thesegments-14 in-the r outermost positions. These'gments are retained in their clusteredrelationship against axial movementbyi nterengagement of the rib'21 and grooves 22 and are-confined against radially outward movement by the-bands 15. If radially inward. pressureis exerted collectively on thesegments, boththe hub- 17 and, because-of the outwardly flared cross-sectionof thesegments, the fins 18 of the resilient spiderwill'be deformed. By the resultingradially inward movementtbf the segments- 14 the fins 18 will becontracted circumferentially and distended radially. The hub 17, on the contrary wil-l be contracted radially and will-seek to expand circumferentially. In order to facilitate such deformation of'the spider the inner sides of the' segments 14- are relieved, such as-by being providedwith chamfers 23, as shown in Figure 2. Because the elements ofthe spider are not appreciably compressible, although they are readily deformable, it will be evidentthat as a practical matter the radially inward movement of the segments 14 will be limited to quite asmallrange. When in relaxed condition, therefore, the segmented mandrel head shouldhave an external diameter only slightly larger than the internal diameter of the tube T to besized.
To facilitate insertion of the segmented mandrel head H into the end of a tube itis preferred that the radially inward constricting force for contracting the mandrel head be effected by the act of inserting such head into the tube end. To produce such a radiallyinward force the ends of the segments 14 remote from the'flange 19 are chamfered at 2.4 so as to provide a cooperatively tapered end on the mandrel head. As such head is forced axially against the end of the tube, therefore, the tube end will effect a wedging action on the chamferedends of the segments and draw them radially inward against the resilient resistance of the deformable spider 17, 18. Continued application of axial force-will cause the segments to slide the tapered entering end of the mandrel fully into the tube and inserting movement of the'm-andrel head will continue until the bosses 20 are brought into abutment with the tube end Wall.
It is preferred that the flange 19'be smaller than the largest portion of the segmented mandrel head H when in its condition of greatest contraction. Alsotheprojection of the bosses 20 beyond the adjacent portionsof the outer surfaces of the segments: should be less than the thickness of the thinnest tube T in which the mandrel is to be engaged. With a mandrel having'suchproportions the entire mandrel as well as-the entire tube T can be pushed through a sizing die 2, while the mandrel is contracted and confined within the tube end. When the tube has thus been moved completely throughthe die, it can be withdrawn from the mandrel and can be used in its entirety.
When the tube has been withdrawn from the contractable mandrel head H, itwvill be evident that the resilience of spider 17, 18 will immediately expand the mandrelhead again until the stress in the spider is virtually completely relieved, but the bands will retain the segments in their clustered relationship. Inithis relaxed condition shown in Figure 3 the greatest diameter of the mandrel head should not exceed the outer: diameter of the tube T, and consequently should not exceed appreciably, if at all, the opening through the .die 2. Ifin such relaxedcondition the mandrel headis smaller than the die opening, the head can be withdrawn through the die Without change of shape and without the necessity of removing the mandrel from the connecting bar 8. If the ends of the segments 14 adjacent to flange 19 are chamfered as at 25 in Figure 3, the mandrel may be withdrawn through the opening of die 2 anyway, because engagement of the mandrel segment chamfers 25 with the die would simply contract the mandrel head sufliciently so that it could be withdrawn through the die opening.
