A hand-held tool for straightening tubing such as brake fluid lines in vehicles, the tool provides a housing having an outer covering, internally thereof, a series of sets of rollers, that are adjustable radially, supported by end frames, and intermediate the rollers and the outer covering is an adjuster ring, shiftable longitudinally within the housing, operatively associated with the rollers, such that when the adjuster ring is pulled outwardly, longitudinally, from the tool housing, the rollers shift radially outwardly, for accommodating larger tubing, and when the adjuster ring is pushed inwardly of the housing, the rollers are forced inwardly against smaller diameter tubing, in preparation for its straightening. A sector of the tool, usually along a quadrant, is opened from one end to the other of the tool, so as to allow the tool to be applied to the tubing to be straightened, anywhere along its length, and not only at its ends.

STRAIGHTENER FOR STRAIGHTENING CABLES
20210114079 · 2021-04-22 ·

A straightening apparatus for straightening cables includes a first roller group having several rollers and a second roller group having several rollers opposite the first roller group. The cable alternates in a transport direction between the rollers of the first roller group and the rollers of the second roller group. The straightening apparatus further includes an infeed device with which the first roller group can be displaced in a closing direction against the second roller group. In order to secure the position of the first roller group displaced in the closing direction by the infeed device, the straightening apparatus includes a backstop which blocks a backward movement of the first roller group against the closing direction. The backstop has a clamping roller which is received in a wedge gap.

PROFILE STRAIGHTENING APPARATUS FOR A PROFILING SYSTEM
20210053098 · 2021-02-25 · ·

A profile straightening apparatus 5 for a profiling system which is used to produce a metal profile 4 by roll profiling along a longitudinal axis of the metal profile. The profile straightening apparatus is intended for correcting axial deviations of the metal profile from a prescribed profile geometry, and includes a frame 8 and having at least two interacting correction rollers 6, 7, which are mounted in the frame, receive the metal profile between them and, in relation to the longitudinal axis of the metal profile, are adjustable in two radial directions and also in at least one direction of rotation. The profile straightening apparatus is equipped with force measuring sensors for any forces F.sub.y, F.sub.z acting in the metal profile in one or both radial directions and for any torques M.sub.x acting in the metal profile in a direction of rotation about the longitudinal axis.

REROUNDER SYSTEM

A pipe deployment system that includes a vehicle or trailer. A coil of pipe couples to the vehicle or trailer. A rerounder system is supported by and couples to the vehicle or trailer. The rerounder system changes a cross-sectional shape of the pipe. The rerounder system rotates relative to the vehicle or trailer to facilitate loading of the coil, and un-loading of the product on the coil.
