    摘要: A portable tubing bender configured to automatically bend a portion of tubing according to a defined set of bend specifications, including a desired number of bends and a desired angle for each bend. The portable tubing bender including a driver configured to rotate a driven shaft and a first rotational output, a reductive gear set operably coupling the driven shaft to an output shaft, a bender shoe couplable to the output shaft, the bender shoe defining an arcuate channel configured to receive tubing during bending operations, and an automatic feed mechanism configured to advance the tubing relative to the bender shoe from an initial position to a bend position.

    摘要: A compact, lightweight, portable tubing bender configured to enable one-handed operation. The tubing bender includes a portable housing including a handle portion, a bender shoe operably coupled to the portable housing, the bender shoe defining an arcuate channel configured to restrain a length of tubing along a prescribed arc during bending operations, a guide gear fixedly coupled to the bender shoe, and a guide frame pivotably coupled to the bender shoe, the guide frame including a motor, a driven gear and a guide member, the motor configured to drive the driven gear along the guide gear to pivot the guide frame relative to the bender shoe, so as to move the guide member during bending operations to guide the length of tubing along the arcuate channel of the bender shoe.

    摘要: An expansion toolhead configured to enable the expansion of multiple different sized diameters of cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing with a single expansion toolhead. The expansion toolhead including a cap operably coupled to an expansion tool, and a plurality of jaws forming a 360 degree jaw section operably coupled to the cap, each of the plurality of jaws including an expansion tool interface portion forming a conical recess enabling a cone-shaped wedge of the expansion tool to move the jaw section between an unexpanded position and an expanded position, and a PEX tubing interface portion having a distal end, a proximal end and a plurality of lands positioned therebetween configured to form a corresponding plurality of substantially uniform diameter portions of the jaw section sequentially increasing in diameter between the distal end and the proximal end for the expansion of multiple different standard sized diameters of VEX tubing.

    摘要: A portable, self-contained conduit bender having a housing configured to house a reductive gear set, thereby improving safety and extending the life of the conduit bender by limiting exposure of the reductive gear set to dust and debris. The conduit bender includes a motor configured to drive a driven shaft at a first rotational output, a reductive gear set operably coupling the driven shaft to an output shaft, the reductive gear set configured to reduce the first rotational output of the driven shaft to a second rotational output of the output shaft, a housing defining an interior cavity configured to house the reductive gear set, such that only a portion of the output shaft emerges from the interior cavity, and a bender shoe coupleable to the output shaft, the bender shoe defining an arcuate channel configured to receive conduit during bending operations.
