Definitions

  • the present invention relates to belling/socketing machine for PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride, uPVC, CPVC and Foam Core Multilayer) pipes.
  • PVC Polyvinyl Chloride, uPVC, CPVC and Foam Core Multilayer
  • the present invention provides an improved process, and a machine, by which the geometrical accuracy of the socket of the pipe is consistently achieved, even at higher extrusion line speeds, in such a way that the process cycle time is considerably reduced thereby improving the productivity and throughput of the Pipe belling/socketing machine.
  • Belling/socketing machine are widely used to join PVC pipes together by enlarging one end of the pipe, allowing other end of the next pipe to be inserted, forming a continuous line to carry liquids under pressure.
  • various industry standard methods exist in which the joints are sealed by solvent cement, rubber ring or other suitable means.
  • the Belling/socketing machine output has to proportionately match with the increased throughput of extrusion line.
  • Heating time depends largely on pipe diameter, PVC compound and pipe wall thickness. For a given pipe diameter and wall thickness, heating time can not be altered drastically by changing process parameters of heating process. Therefore it can be assumed that for a given pipe diameter and wall thickness heating time is fixed. Similarly, cooling time is also fixed at forming station, which can not be reduced drastically due to inherent properties of the pipe.
  • peripheral machine functions on which the accuracy of the socket, and the throughput are dependent.
  • peripheral functions such as positioning the pipe, transfer the pipe between various stations, speed of clamping, speed, of forming etc.
  • An additional positioning station might be placed between heating station and forming station, but leads to unnecessary cooling of the pipe at this station.
  • the process of positioning of the pipe is done parallel to heating process, which significantly reduces overall cycle time of the process, with the help of a reciprocating device.
  • the proposed machine provides better sensing accuracy, for measurement of socket length along ' with repeatability offered by control device and efficacy of control system to pick and analyze measurement signals at various line speeds. In this case sensing is done, when the pipe is stationary.
  • the proposed machine offers better positioning accuracy of the pipe depending on the dimensions of the zone to be heated. Thus, plays an important role in heating operation.
  • the pipe is positioned with very small movement of the pipe at low velocity.
  • the main object of the proposed invention is to allow simultaneous operations of heating of pipe end as well as positioning of the pipe thus reduce overall cycle time of the entire belling/socketing process.
  • Another object of the proposed invention is to offer an improved machine which effectively matches the throughput of the extrusion line in proportion with the hourly production rate.
  • Another object of the proposed invention is to provide better sensing accuracy for measurement of socket length along with repeatability offered by control device 'and efficacy of control system to pick and analyze measurement signals at various line speeds.
  • the proposed invention can best be understood with reference to a simplified discussion of the prior art.
  • Refer Fig 1. The existing invention for pipe belling/socketing machine mainly comprises of three sections:
  • Receiving end section - Pipe (1.1), Line of extrusion (1.2), pipe pulling device (1.3), pipe edge sensor(1.4), pipe support and transfer system (1.5).
  • Heating section - Plurality of pipe heating ovens (1.6).
  • Forming section - Socket shape formation tool (1.7), clamping arrangement (1.8), socket length control conveyor (1.9), socket length position control sensor (1.10).
  • Fig. 1 shows the schematic of pipe belling/socketing machine existing process.
  • Pipe (1.1) through the line of extrusion (1.2) is pulled by a pipe pulling device (1.3) positioned at the receiving end section of pipe belling/socketing machine, with the help of signal generated by pipe edge sensor (1.4).
  • Pipe (1.1) at the receiving end section is transferred to heating section through pipe support and transfer system (1.5).
  • Heating section comprise of plurality of pipe heating ovens (1.6).
  • Pipe (1.1) is heated in the plurality of pipe heating ovens (1.6) to make it soft at the socket formation end. Generally, heating is relatively a slow operation.
  • the heated pipe (1.1) is further transferred to forming section through pipe support and transfer system (1.5).
  • pipe (1.1) end is sensed by socket length position control sensor (1.10) coupled through hard wiring to the controller (not shown in fig) applies correction to the position of the pipe with socket length control conveyor (1.9) and exact position is achieved by back and forth movement of the pipe (1.1).
  • the movement of pipe (1.1) considerably increases cycle time and reduces throughput of the machine. Also sensing of the edge of the pipe (1.1) is done by sensor (1.10), while pipe (1.1) is moving, which leads to inaccuracy and associated problems due to dynamic response of the system.
  • Fig. 2 shows the schematic of improved pipe belling/socketing machine.
  • Fig.3 shows plan view of heating section which includes plurality of pipe heating ovens and socket length adjustment and control device.
  • Fig 4 shows the improved pipe clamping arrangement.
  • the proposed invention comprises of three sections:
  • Receiving end section - Pipe (2.1), Line of extrusion (2.2), pipe pulling device (2.3), pipe edge sensor (2.4), pipe support and transfer system (2.5).
  • Heating section - Plurality of pipe heating ovens (2.6), socket length adjustment and control device (2.7).
  • Forming section - Socket shape formation tool (2.8), Pipe clamping arrangement (2.9).
  • Pipe (2.1) through the line of extrusion (2.2) is pulled by a pipe pulling device (2.3), positioned at the receiving end section of pipe belling/socketing machine.
  • Pipe edge sensor (2.4) placed at receiving end section senses the edge of-pipe (2.1), and positions the pipe (2.1) for Heating Section.
  • Pipe (2.1) at the receiving end section is transferred to heating section with the help of pipe support and transfer system (2.5) without any axial movement of pipe (2.1).
  • pipe support and transfer system (2.5) transfers pipe (2.1) between adjacent sections without any axial movement of pipe (2.1).
  • plurality of pipe heating ovens (2.6) come forward and heat the End portion of pipe (2.1)to make it soft at the socket formation end.
  • socket length adjustment and control device (2.7) which is air/hydraulic/ mechanical cam actuated device, placed on one of the plurality of pipe heating ovens (2.6), adjusts the length and positions the pipe (2.1) with respect to socket shape formation tool (2.8) at which socket is to be formed and that position is sensed by a non contact type of sensor (not shown in fig-) Referring to Fig 3, the process of positioning of the pipe (2.1) is done parallel to heating process, which significantly reduces overall cycle time of the process. The adjustment over a wide range of socket length and position of the pipe (2.1) where socket is to be formed is done when the pipe (2.1) is stationary, which in turn gives better accuracy of position. Now, pipe (2.1) is further transferred to the forming section by pipe support and transfer system (2.5), without any axial movement of the pipe (2.1). Socket length adjustment and control device (2.7) can be in the form of mechanical, pneumatic or hydraulic actuation.

  • the pipe (2.1) is cooled and to form proper shape external pneumatic pressure is applied in closed Cooling Chamber (Not shown).
  • the socket shape formation tool (2.8) is withdrawn and then pipe (2.1) is directly delivered in the outlet bin.
