AUTOMATION FOR MANUFACTURING PLATES AND ASSEMBLING SECTIONS FINNED RADIATORS Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: automation has a mechanism for feeding belt, device for punching holes and cutting plates from the belt, cell for radiator pipes, mechanism for pressing plates on the pipes, accumulator of pipes, and mechanism for removing pipes from the accumulator. The cell is provided with knives for centering pipes. The automation has a mechanism for setting radiator pipes on the knives and detaching the assembled section of the radiator. The accumulator is made up as plates mounted parallel at a distance less than the width of the radiator pipes rigidly interconnected and having grooves for radiator pipes. The mechanism for removing pipes is made up as a hydraulic cylinder and comb whose ribs are interposed between the plates of the accumulator. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency. 4 dwg
