The invention discloses a receiving device for a pipe cold rolling machine. A receiving tank is supported by multiple bottom frames arranged in an oil collection tank side by side. The right end of the receiving tank is provided with a fan-shaped oil drainage plate inclining downwards. Each bottom frame comprises a cuboid base, a high column, a short column and an oil drainage frame. Each high column and the corresponding short column parallel in the front-rear direction are perpendicularly welded to the corresponding base. Each high column comprises an upper segment and a lower segment which are in threaded and nested connection. Each oil drainage frame is connected between the lower segment of the corresponding high column and the corresponding short column in a welding manner and is in an arc shape with the subjacent arc top. The outer side of the short column of each bottom frame is provided with a T-shaped hook, and the top end of the upper segment of the high column of each bottom frame is provided with a groove support. The receiving device has the beneficial effects that the structure is simple, safe and reliable, cold-rolled pipes can be placed conveniently, meanwhile oil drainage treatment can be conducted on the cold-rolled pipes, the situation that the dirty oil contaminates working environment is prevented effectively, cold-rolled pipe transferring operation and cold-rolled pipe binding operation are easy and convenient, and the labor intensity of workers is lowered greatly.
