Manufacturing device for bent pipe and method of manufacturing bent pipe

One aspect of the present disclosure is a manufacturing device by which the bent pipe is obtained by bending a double pipe. The device includes inner and intermediate core metals, a bending mold, and a controller. The controller executes: a first bending process in which first and second pipes are bent by the bending mold in a first direction in a first area of the double pipe where the inner and intermediate core metals are placed; a second bending process in which the first and second pipes are bent, after the first bending process, by the bending mold in a second direction in a second area of the double pipe where the inner and intermediate core metals are placed; and a first bending-back process in which the second pipe is bent, after the first bending process, in a direction opposite to the first direction in the first area.

The invention relates to a bending machine (M) for bending a workpiece (300), remarkable in that a clamping jaw (511) is supported by a clamping jaw holder (510) receiving at least two clamping jaws (511, 512) arranged back to back, the clamping jaw holder (510) being fastened to a shelf (513) guided and driven in translation on the bending arm (500), the support shelves (600) punctually receiving the clamping jaw holder (510) separated from the shelf (513) and to move it on either side of the bending axis transversely to the advance axis of the workpiece (300) to be bent, independently of the bending arm (500) so that the clamping jaw holder (510) can be fastened again to the shelf (513) once the bending arm (500) has been rotated 180 degrees. The invention also relates to a bending process.

CONDUIT BENDER

A powered conduit bending tool is configured to bend conduit. The tool comprises a housing, a motor contained within the housing, and a battery removably coupled to the housing to provide power to the motor. An output shaft extends from the housing and is driven by the motor to rotate about an axis. A head is coupled to the output shaft for rotation therewith. The head includes a curved channel for receiving the conduit. A guide is coupled to the housing and supported opposite the curved channel of the head. The guide includes a latching handle movable between a closed position and an open position. The motor drives the head to rotate relative to the housing so that the curved channel and the guide cooperate to bend the pipe.
