This invention provides a bending roll apparatus capable of preventing barrel-like deformation of a pipe occurring during a roll bending work and of manufacturing a small diameter elongated pipe. In an apparatus for manufacturing a pipe by pushing rolls to a core roll, feeding a metal sheet to their contact portions and performing a bending work, the bending roll apparatus comprises a core roll formed of a metal and a plurality of push rolls having a surface portion thereof formed of an elastic material and disposed around the core roll. The invention further provides, in a bending roll apparatus, a core roll formed of a metal, a plurality of push rolls formed of a metal and disposed around the core roll, and holding the core roll when a metal sheet is bent, and a guide belt formed of an elastic material, interposed between the core roll and each of the push rolls, contacting on a core roll surface on a side opposite to an entry side of the metal sheet and driven in synchronism with the core roll.

The method and apparatus for rolling a section of metal plate into a cylindrical pipe section wherein leading and trailing edges of said plate section are pre-crimped to the final desired radius of said cylindrical pipe section, feeding the leading edge of said plate section into a forming mill that includes an overhead mandrel having a radius approximating said final desired radius of said pipe section, forcing said mandrel to deflect along the length thereof during the forming of said plate section between said mandrel and a pair of driven bending roll means whereby said mandrel and said bending roll means are maintained at the same curvature throughout the length thereof and said plate section is uniformly bent along the length thereof to said desired final radius.

The process and apparatus of the invention permits the production of annular parts, such as ferrules, on which machining operations are to be carried out. The process includes the steps of bending a predimensioned metal sheet by a series of internal supports mounted on a rotary plate and by a pressure roller bearing on the outer surface of the sheet. One complete rotation of the rotary plate makes it possible to completely bend the sheet into the form of a ferrule. The second main operation includes carrying out of a welding operation on the two ends of the metal sheet. This process makes it possible to carry out any random prior machining operation on the predimensioned flat metal sheet, without the machining operations being impaired by the bending or welding operation. The process is applicable to the production of front ferrules for casings surrounding the coldest pipe of a double flow turbojet engine.

In each cycle of a sequence of repetitive cycles a longitudinal section of an elongated, continuous piece of material spaced from the free end of the piece is draped about an arcuate face of a mandrel by a bending tool moving about the axis of curvature of the mandrel face, and the free end of the piece is thereby engaged with the arcuate face of another mandrel and secured to the other mandrel, whereupon the section draped over the first mandrel is cut. The central portion of the blank severed thereby from the continuous piece is draped over the second mandrel bent into a ring, the curvature of the leading and trailing blank portion, being due to previous draping over the first mandrel.

Apparatus for forming cylindrical spacers from metal blanks includes a base plate mountable upon a support with a series of spaced uprights upon the base plate. A die bar spans and is secured to said uprights. A bending roll shaft is arranged parallel to and spaced from said die bar and is rotatively journalled upon said uprights. The roll shaft has an elongated slot adapted to supportably receive the edge of one or more blanks to be formed. A rotative drive is connected to said roll shaft whereby said blank is guidably interposed between the roll shaft and die bar and adapted to wrap around the roll shaft during rotation thereof. Provision is made for stripping the formed spacers from the roll shaft. The method of forming cylindrical spacers from flat metal blanks comprises the steps of rotatively mounting a slotted bending roll shaft upon a horizontal axis and assembling and interlocking the lower edge of one or more blanks down into the roll bar slot. A further step includes advancing said blanks and wrapping said blanks around said roll shaft while holding them in registry with said roll shaft to simultaneously form a plurality of said spacers. A final step includes successively stripping the formed spacers from the roll shaft.

Apparatus and method for making completely rounded pipe cylinders of selectively different diameters and wall thicknesses, with a minimal change-over time loss. The invention includes a combination of press and cylinder roll including a floating roll, press roll, drive rolls and stabilizing rolls, so interrelated and interacting to form a complete circular pipe cylinder from flat stock. The method entails the use of various diameter removable or floating rolls appropriate for changes in diameter of pipe cylinder, or wall thickness of pipe cylinder to be formed, with no appreciable time loss in the change-over from one end product to another.
