Abstract:
An electric resistance welded steel pipe having an identifiable seam portion and a method for manufacturing the same. The electric resistance welded steel pipe includes a steel pipe portion with a seam portion, which is formed by electric resistance welding, and a coating portion of zinc phosphate. The coating portion covers at least an outer surface side of the steel pipe portion. A part of the coating portion that is immediately above the seam portion forms a color difference portion that has a width W along a pipe circumferential direction of greater than or equal to 0.1 times a wall thickness of the pipe and less than or equal to the wall thickness of the pipe. The color difference portion has a visually identifiable color difference from the other parts of the coating portion.
Abstract:
In a die for compressing and sizing a sintered body at straight portions, upper taper portions are provided on a die upper portion and a core rod upper portion, and the straight portions are provided at a die lower portion and a core rod lower portion. The die upper portion and the core rod upper portion have Young's moduluses higher than the die lower portion and the core rod lower portion. The die upper portion and the core rod upper portion are made of materials having Young's moduluses that are at least 50 GPa higher than that of the sintered body. The sintered body can be densified with a smaller ironing margin. Since the sintered body is ironed without being compressed, by the upper taper portions and the core rod upper portion having high Young's moduluses, the die is prevented from breaking and being abraded due to ironing.
Abstract:
A method for producing a steel tube, wherein a steel sheet is formed into tubular body having a round cross section in a bending process, welded in a subsequent welding process along longitudinal edges facing each other for producing a continuous longitudinal seam, and then subjected to a stress-relieving treatment. The production quality is improved, with reduced production time, because the stress-relieving treatment is performed in a process for concentrically truing along the circumference in at least one segment relative to the longitudinal axis thereof, while cold forming by compression (FIG. 1). The mechanical technological properties of the material are also thereby improved.
Abstract:
A combined skiver and a smooth rolling tool with a skiver head and behind this a smooth rolling head, wherein between the skiver head and the rolling head an exclusive torque transmitting coupling is located which restricts the allowable axis shaft offset and/or the angular position of the axes of the rolling head and skiver head, to which the rolling head is connected, characterized in that the skiver head (2) is guided through a workpiece bore via a hydrostatic guideway.
Abstract:
[Problem] There is provided a pipe end shape correcting apparatus capable of improving the roundness without loss of work efficiency and the mechanical damage to a weld bead even in the case where the pipe ends of UOE metal pipes having various outside diameters are worked.[Solution] In a pipe end shape correcting apparatus for a UOE metal pipe for correcting the roundness of a pipe end portion by applying a pressure to the pipe end portion held between an inner surface-side die and an outer surface-side die, the inner surface-side die having an upper surface having a circular arc-shaped cross section and being fixed to an upper part of a base on the inner surface side, and the outer surface-side die having a lower surface having a circular arc-shaped cross section and being fixed to a lower part of a base on the outer surface side, each of the inner surface-side die and the outer surface-side die is split into a plurality of parts, and is fixed so that a space between the split die parts is located in a respective central portion of the split inner surface-side dies and the split outer surface-side dies.
Abstract:
A hollow component is adjusted in shape, for example to correct circularity, by means of a shape adjusting tool. The tool comprises a base structure on which adjuster elements are guided. An adjustment ring has a ramp surface corresponding to each adjuster element so that rotation of the adjustment ring causes radial displacement of the adjuster elements 6. The adjuster elements are displaced in unison, and engage the internal surface of the component to be adjusted so as to deform the component to the desired shape. The segments are interconnected by rigid links and a single flexible link, and are supported on bearing rollers mounted on the base structure.

A hollow component is adjusted in shape, for example to correct circularity, by means of a shape adjusting tool. The tool comprises a base structure 2 on which adjuster elements 6 are guided. An adjustment ring 8 has a ramp surface 26 corresponding to each adjuster element 6 so that rotation of the adjustment ring 8 causes radial displacement of the adjuster elements 6. The adjuster elements 6 are displaced in unison, and engage the internal surface of the component to be adjusted so as to deform the component to the desired shape. The segments 20 are interconnected by rigid links 32 and a single flexible link 34, and are supported on baring rollers 36 mounted on the base structure 2.
Abstract:
A mandrel 1 includes a top support 10, a first edge support 20, a bottom support 30, and a second edge support 40. The top support and first edge support make-up a first support section. The bottom support and second edge support make-up a second support section. The first support section and the second support section are disposed relative to one another so as to form an outer circumference. A jack 50 is coupled to the first and second support sections and is configured to move the first and second support sections relative to one another so as to adjust the outer circumference of the mandrel. A locking element 60 removably is coupled to the first and second support sections to selectively prevent relative movement between the first and second support sections.
Abstract:
A method for the circumferential interior treatment of pipe elbows, including a step of positioning a working member within a pipe elbow and moving the working member along a portion of a length of the pipe elbow between selected working positions, while concurrently manipulating the pitch and rotational positioning of the pipe elbow to maintain a concentric rotation of the pipe elbow about the working member.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a steel tube, wherein a steel sheet (4) is formed into tubular body (1.2) having a round cross section in a bending process (a), welded in a subsequent welding process (b) along the longitudinal edges facing each other for producing a continuous longitudinal seam, and then subjected to a stress-relieving treatment. The production quality is improved, with reduced production time, in that the stress-relieving treatment is performed in a process (c) for concentrically truing along the circumference in at least one segment relative to the longitudinal axis thereof, while cold forming by compression (FIG. 1). The mechanical technological properties of the material are also thereby improved.
