  • the present invention relates to a device for fashioning a flange on a wall which separates an inner space from an outer space and which has been previously drilled with a hole which communicates said inner space with said outer space.
  • the invention is more particularly though not exclusively applicable to the fash ioning of a flange on the wall of a pipe made of metal or plastics.
  • the fashioning of a flange is an operation to which recourse is frequently hadwhen it is required to make a branch connection on a tube having a relatively thin and deformable wall.
  • the procedure in such cases is to first form, through the pipe wall, at the desired location, a hole having a small diameter in relation to the diameter of the required branch connection.
  • a suitable fashioning tool is then inserted through this hole into the pipe and has imparted to it a compound motion of rotation about the geometrical axis of the hole and of linear translation directed from the interior to the exterior of the pipe.
  • the wall portion surrounding the hole is gradually thrust outwardsfrom the pipe, thereby enlarging the hole up to the diameter required for the branch connection while at the same time forming around it a cylindrical flange, and the smaller the initial diameter of the hole the greaterwill be the height of this flange.
  • tool working radius will refer to the distance between the rotation axis of the tool and the point thereof in contact with the inner surface of the pipe wall.
  • tool working diameter is to be understood as being equal to twice the working radius of the tool.
  • a first disadvantage resides in the fact that such a fashioning tool with a non-adjustable working radius can be used to form onlya single flange diameter. in consequence, a specific fashioning tool must be provided for each branch diameter required, which is somewhat uneconomical.
  • a second disadvantage which is bound up directly with the first, stems from the fact that in the case of a fashioning tool of non-adjustable working radius, the effective working radius gradually decreases as a result of tool wear; consequently, the flange diameters produced with such a tool will likewise gradually decrease, soon making the tool useless.
  • a third disadvantage arises from the fact that prior art fashioning tools of non-adjustable working radius are asymmetrically configured with respect to their rotation axis-in any event in the case of large-workingradius tools intended for fashioning deep flanges of large diameter, since a symmetrically configured forming tool havinga large non-adjustable working radius could not be inserted into the pipe through an initial small-diameter hole drilled through the pipe wall.
  • the effect of said asymmetrical configuration during the flange forming operation is to generate large noncompensated forces in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis-of the pipe that tend to entrain the latter in one direction and the other alternately. This makes it necessary to securely restrain the pipe during the fashioning operation in order to oppose these longitudinal forces.
  • This can be accomplished either by means of an arrangement of clamps or shells with an inner diameter exactly matching the outer diameter of the pipe to be restrained, or. by means of an adjustable vice.
  • the former solution callsfor a set of jaws or shells for each pipe diameter involved, which, in view of the wide diversity of commercially available piping, is uneconomical.
  • the present invention is based on a known device comprising, in combination, a forming tool having a portion adapted to be inserted from the outer space into the inner space through the hole previously drilled in the pipe wall, said tool being rotatable about a geometrical axis substantially merging with the geometrical axis of said hole and being furthermore translatable linearly along the same axis; a tool-holder; means for attaching said tool to the tool-holder; and means for rotating said tool-holder about, and translating it linearly along, said rotation/translation axis.
  • a fashioning device is characterized in that said forming tool includes two distinct forming members arranged symmetrically in relation to the rotation/translation axis of the tool; in that said means for attaching the tool to the tool-holder include two hinge pins respectively associated to said two forming members and by means of which each of these two forming members are hingedly connected to said tool-holder, said two hinge pins being at once perpendicular to said rotation/translation axis and positioned symmetrically in relation thereto; and in that adjustable means are provided for simultaneously pivoting said two forming members, each about its own hinge pin, thereby to simultaneously vary the angular positions of said two forming members in relation to said toolholder.
  • the forming tool likewise includes a slide which is connected to the two aforesaid forming members and which is positioned coaxially with the rotation/translation axis of the tool and is translatable in a straight line along that axis.
  • the invention preferably provides for a control rod positioned coaxially with said rotation/translation axis and capable of being actuated externally of the device, for instance by means of a control rod.
  • This control rod is connected to said slide through an adjustable threaded link and is capable of being rotated about said rotation/translation axis with respect to the tool-holder and of being translated in a straight line therealong.
  • the first of these two motions permits continuous adjustment of the working radius of the forming tool, while the second of these motions permits insertion into the space within the pipe of the tool after the latter has had its working radius adjusted thus beforehand.
  • FIG. 1 schematically illustrates the fashioning of a branch connection on a pipe subsequent to formation of a flange on the wall thereof;
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic portrayal, in cross-section to the longitudinal axis of the pipe, of a flange fashioning device according to the invention
  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view, through the line III-III, of the fashioning device shown in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a schematic view, in cross-section to the longitudinal axis of the pipe, showing a symmetrically configured forming tool with adjustable working radius forming part of the fashioning device shown in FIG. 2, said tool being in its minimum-working-diameter configuration;
  • FIG. 5 is a schematic portrayal similar to FIG. 4 but in which the forming tool is shown in its maximum-working-diameter configuration
  • FIG. 6 is a similar showing to FIG. 2, illustrating an alternative embodiment of said fashioning device
  • FIG. 7 is a perspective showing of the forming tool which forms part of the fashioning device shown in FIG. 6;
  • FIG. 8 is a perspective showing of two symmetrical forming members which form part of the forming tool shown in FIG. 7.
  • reference numeral 1 designates a wallin this instance the wall of a pipe 2 of diameter d-separating an inner space 3 from an outer space 4.
  • a flange 5 for connecting a branch pipe 6 to pipe 2.
  • a small-diameter hole 7 which has been drilled beforehand through wall 1 and which is used to initiate the fashioning of a further flange 8 by means of the fashioning device to be described hereinbelow.
  • FIG. 2 for showing of a flange fashioning device according to the invention.
  • Such device basically includes a forming tool 9 which is rotatable about a geometrical axis YY merging substantially with the geometrical axis of hole 7 and which is additionally translatable linearly along said axis.
  • tool 9 is connected to a toolholder 10 coaxial with said rotation/translation axis YY and capable of being rotated about and linearly translated therealong.
  • Tool 9 and tool-holder 10 are movable within a cylindrical casing 11 which is closed at one end by a cover 12 having an opening 13 therein.
  • Tool-holder 10 is formed by a first portion 14 having an outer diameter substantially equal to the inner diameter of casing 11 and a second portion 15 of smaller diameter.
  • the first tool-holder portion 14 is formed with a diametrical slot 16 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) which extends up to its free end.
  • the second tool-holder portion 15 is formed at one end with a bore 17 and at its other end with a bore 18 which communicates with bore 17 through a bore 19 of smaller section. Bore 17 further communicates with diametrical slot 16. Bores l7, l8 and 19 are coaxial with the rotation/translation axis YY of forming tool 9.
  • Forming tool 9 comprises two distinct forming members 9a, 9b (for greater clarity in the drawing, only one is shown complete in FIG. 2) and a slide 20, one end of which is fast with a clevis 21.
  • the two forming members 9a, 9b are arranged symmetrically in relation to rotation/translation axis Y-Y.
  • Each includes an active portion or finger 22a (22b) integral with a supporting portion or finger-support 23a (23b) in which is formed an inclined oblong window 24a (24b).
  • One edge of finger-support 23a (23b) is designated 23 ax (23 bx).
  • the two finger-supports 23a and 23b are pivotally connected to tool-holder 10 by means of hinge pins 25a and 25b respectively carried by tool-holder portion 14 and extending through slot 16.
  • the two hinge pins 25a, 25b are perpendicular to the rotation/translation axis YY of tool 9 and are symmetrically positioned with respect thereto.
  • Each of the two forming fingers 22a and 22b is shaped substantially as the arc of a circle having its centre on or near the corresponding hinge pins 25a and 25b.
  • the two forming members 9a and 9b and slide 20 are interconnected by means of a pivot 26 which is parallel to the two hinge pins 25a, 25b and which extends through the two branches of clevis 21 and through the two finger-supports 23a and 23b, by way of the two oblong windows 24a, 24b.
  • Slide 20 is positioned coaxially with the rotation/- translation axis YY of tool 9 and is linearly translatable along that axis through bore 17.
  • Slide 20 and the two forming members 9a and 9b articulated thereto by means of pivot 26 are so arranged that when the slide translates through bore 17 the two forming members 9a, 9b pivot simultaneously within diametrical slot 16, each about its hinge pin 25a (25b), whereby the angular position of said forming members in relation to the tool-holder 10 is caused to vary.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 illustrate the effects of this pivotal motion.
  • FIG. 4 shows one of the limit angular positions reached by the two forming members 9a, 9b.
  • the two active portions or fingers 22a or 22b are almost fully retracted into casing 11, with only the free ends of the fingers protruding through the opening 13 therein.
  • the working diameter of tool 9, as defined precedingly is then at a minimum value D permitting simultaneous insertion of the two fingers 22a, 22b into the inner space 3 of pipe 2, through the hole 7 previously drilled into the wall 1 of said pipe.
  • the edges 230x, 23bit, of finger supports 23a and 23b respectively are preferably at the limit of their travel in abutment against tool-holder 1.4, as shown in dashlines in FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 5 shows the other limit angular position reached by the two forming members 9a, 9b.
  • the two active portions or fingers 22a, 22b are fully extended within inner space 3 of pipe 2, and the working diameter of tool 9 is at a maximum value Dma,r less than or at most equal to the pipe diameter d.
  • control rod 30 allows of linearly translating the slide 20 and hence of continuously modifying the angular position of the two forming members 9a and 9b.
  • Control rod 30 is arranged coaxially with the rotation/- translation axis Y'( of tool 9, through the three bores 17, 18, 19 in the tool-holder, and is at once rotatable about axis Y-Y linearly translatable therealong with respect to the tool-holder.
  • Control rod 30 has one of its ends fast with a threaded member such as a screw 31 engaging with an associated threaded member such as a nut 32 fast with slide 20.
  • a threaded member such as a screw 31 engaging with an associated threaded member such as a nut 32 fast with slide 20.
  • control rod 30 is extended by a sleeve 33 coaxial therewith and rigidly secured thereto through the agency of screws, for instance.
  • Sleeve 33 protrudes from tool-holder and is topped by an actuating knob 34 which is driven or screwed onto it and is accessible from outside the device. Hence any rotation or translation motion imparted to control knob 34 produces a corresponding rotation or translation of control rod 30.
  • sleeve 33 forms an abutment rigid with control rod 30, and a compression spring 35 has one end reacting thereagainst and its other end in pressure contact with the bottom of the bore 18 formed in tool-holder 10.
  • Spring 35 consequently tends to translate control rod 30 and slide 20 in a straight line along axis Y-Y, in a direction such as to cause thetwo forming members 9a, 9b to occupy their limit angular position shown in FIG. 4, in which the working diameter of forming tool 9 assumes its minimum value D
  • D Formed over this periphery of bore 18 is an annular groove 36 which is coaxial with the rotation/translation axis Y-Y of tool 9 and into which can engage locking balls 37 carried by tubular sleeve 33.
  • the balls 37 are part of a locking mechanism for latching the control rod 30 in a predetermined and invariable axial position in relation to tool-holder 10. This locking mechanism prevents control rod 30 from translating along axis Y-Y beyond said latching position but does not prevent if from rotating about said axis.
  • the locking mechanism for control rod 30 further includes a thrust member 38 which, in the latching position shown in FIG. 2, thrusts the balls 37 into annular groove 36.
  • Thrust member 38 is fast with a rod 39 which is movable through the bore of sleeve 33.
  • This rod is formed with a collar 4% and is extended by a pushbutton 41 coaxial with control knob 34 and accessible from outside the device.
  • a spring 42 one end of which bears against collar 40 and the other against an abutment fast with sleeve 33, urges thrust member 38 toward its latching position.
  • pushbutton 41 When pushbutton 41 is depressed, thrust member 38 ceases to be in contact with the balls 37, so that the. latter emerge from annular groove 36.
  • pushbutton 41 acts as an unlocking member for releasing the control rod 30.
  • Means are provided for rotating the tool-holder 10 about the axis Y-Y and for translating it in a straight line therealong.
  • said means include a driving handle 43 angularly rigid with tool-holder 10 and two mutually engaging threaded members, one of which is formed by a screw 44 fast with tool-holder portion 15 while the other includes a nut 45 made angularly rigid with the casing 11 by means, say, of a retractable linchpin 46.
  • the threads on the two members 44 and 45 are finepitched in order to reduce the force to be exerted on handle 43.
  • the handle 43 could be replaced by any convenient driving means such as an electric motor.
  • casing 11 At its end proximate the opening 13, casing 11 carries two abutment members or pegs 47, 48 which flank the pipe 2 to be worked and are intended to prevent the latter from rotating about rotation/translation axis Y'-Y during the flange fashioning operation.
  • the first step is to adjust the working diameter D of forming tool 9 according to the flange diameter to be obtained.
  • control rod! 30 is rotated about axis Y'-Y by means of control knob 34, thereby causing it to be translated therealong together with slide 20. This adjustment is possible irrespective of whether or not the control rod 30 is locked against translation by locking mechanism 36, 37, 38.
  • control knob 34 may be provided with a pointer which moves before graduation marks on. tool-holder 10. The tools working diameter thus remains set and visible at all times and can be adjusted whenever required during the work.
  • the next step is to depress the unlatching pushbutton 41 in order to release control rod 30 (if this has not already been done), whereby forming tool 9 moves into its retracted position, shown in FIG. 4, responsively to spring 35.
  • forming tool 9 Being in its minimum-working-diameter configuration D,,,,,,, the tool 9 with the two symmetrical forming fingers 22a, 22b can penetrate into the hole 7 previously drilled through the wall 1 of pipe 2.
  • the flange fashioning operation can then begin.
  • the handle 43 is accordingly used to impart rotation to tool-holder 10 about axis Y-Y.
  • the tool-holder is simultaneously constrained to translate linearly, along the same axis, outwardly inside the pipe.
  • Forming tool 9 (and specifically its active portion consisting of the two forming fingers 22a, 22b) describes exactly the same motion, so that fingers 22a, 22b are fetched into contact with the pipe portion to be deformed and the flange 8 is gradually formed by the process illustrated schematically in FIG. 1. It is to be noted that the portion of finger 22a (22b) in contact with the pipe is devoid of sharp edges.
  • the cover 12 fast with the casing 11 prevents pipe 2 from being drawn thereinto during the fashioning operation.
  • the abutment members or pegs 47, 48 their function as already stated is to prevent the pipe from rotating about axis YY. It should be pointed out that by reason of the symmetrical arrangement of the two forming fingers 22a, 22b, the pipe 2 is subjected to no significant forces acting along its longitudinal axis, making it unnecessary to resort to a vice or to a set of shells in order to restrain the pipe longitudinally.
  • a flange fashioning device offers, inter alia, the following advantages:
  • control knob permits accurate adjustment of the selected diameter.
  • FIGS. 6 through 8 illustrate an alternative embodiment of the invention.
  • like parts are designated by like reference numerals.
  • a first difference relates to the driving handle 43, which in this alternative embodiment is equipped with a unidirectional coupling device 50-of the ratchet type, for exampleenabling it to be rotated backwards in cases where there is only limited room for performing the fashioning operation.
  • Trigger 51 for operating the linchpin 46.
  • Trigger 51 is piv- 6 Nut is supported by casing 11 on an anti-friction bearing 54, for instance of the ball-bearing type.
  • an anti-friction bearing 54 for instance of the ball-bearing type.
  • the latter can be maintained in the released position by a locking spring 55 which can be rendered inoperative by an unlocking button 56.
  • each of these two members includes, as a bearing for the corresponding hinge pin 25a (25b), a lodging a (60b) formed with an aperture 61a (61b) over part of its periphery.
  • This aperture makes it possible, by a hooking motion, to engage said forming members over said hinge pin, or to release it therefrom by an unhooking motion.
  • This feature is particularly useful because it facilitates dismantling of the forming tool 9 (9a, 9b, 20) to allow a standard replacement item to be substituted in the event of accidental damage to the tool. Such removal can be effected simply by fully unscrewing screw 31 from nut 32.
