An apparatus for forming a part is provided, which includes a die. The die includes a round orifice, a central mandrel disposed within the round orifice, and a plurality of bridges and a corresponding plurality of portholes between the bridges. The bridges and the portholes extending around the central mandrel. A spacing of the bridges around the mandrel is non-equiangular. The die allows a material to be extruded through the die to form a round, closed geometry tube from the material such that the round, closed geometry tube has non-equiangular welds after emerging from the die.

Provided is a forming system that expands a heated metal pipe material to form a metal pipe. The forming system includes a gas supply portion that supplies a gas to the heated metal pipe material to expand the metal pipe material, a nozzle that includes a feed port for supplying the gas, a discharge portion that discharges the gas after expanding the metal pipe material, and a cooling unit that cools the gas flowing through the discharge portion and is provided in the nozzle.

A method for manufacturing a tube includes continuously moving a tubular hollow blank through an expansion tool, and supplying fluid to a space delimited by the expansion tool and the tubular hollow blank the such that a hydraulic pressure is applied inside the tubular hollow blank. The magnitude of the hydraulic pressure is selected such that the tubular hollow blank is deformed plastically. The disclosure also relates to an arrangement for manufacturing a tube.

A forming device includes a gas supply part supplying a gas into a metal pipe material held and heated between a first die and a second die paired with each other. A driving mechanism moves at least one of the first die and the second die in a direction in which the dies are combined together. A first cavity part is formed between the first die and the second die to form the pipe part. A second cavity part communicates with the first cavity part to form the flange part. A flange forming member can be allowed to advance or retreat in the second cavity part, and forms the flange part. A controller controls the gas supply of the gas supply part, the driving of the driving mechanism, and the advance or retreat of the flange forming member.

A hydroforming apparatus and working method able to simply find a load path are proposed, which system and method use a mold in which contact sensors able to judge contact with a metal tube inside the mold are mounted at least at two different positions in the tube axial direction, perform a first step of axially pushing tube ends in a state with the internal pressure held at a constant value and stopping the progress of the axial pushing action when judging that among the contact sensors not yet in contact mounted at positions closest to the tube ends detect contact with the metal tube, next perform a second step of raising only the internal pressure while leaving the positions of the tube ends fixed and stopping the increase in the internal pressure when the contact sensor not yet in contact judges contact, next perform a third step of lowering the internal pressure to the value before raising it while leaving the positions of the tube ends fixed, and repeat said first step to third step until all of said contact sensors judge contact so as to obtain a hydroformed part.

A hydro forming apparatus comprises a lower base; a lower mold mounted on the lower base and provided with an U-shaped lower cavity; an upper mold provided with a U-shaped upper cavity corresponding to the lower cavity and configured to be coupled with the lower mold; an upper base mounted on the upper mold and configured to be coupled with the lower base; and an adjusting unit for adjusting the shape of the U-shaped lower and upper cavities.
摘要:
The invention relates to a heat exchanger, especially a heat exchanger for motor vehicles, comprising a bank of tubes through which a gaseous medium flows and around which a liquid coolant flows. The ends of said tubes are received in tube plates and are connected to the same in a material fit. The inventive heat exchanger also comprises a housing jacket which surrounds the bank of tubes and is connected, at the end thereof, to the tube plates. A coolant flows through said housing jacket. The tubes, tube plates and housing jacket are produced from a heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant metallic alloy. According to the invention, the housing jacket comprises at least one surrounding expansion flange.
