The present invention discloses an inner pipe for a liquid heating apparatus, including a hollow pipe body made of a metal or an alloy, where a pipe wall thickness of the pipe body is 0.3-1.0 mm; through a machining method of rolling or pressing, a spiral diversion structure is machined on an inner peripheral wall of the pipe body along an axial direction of the pipe body, so that the spiral division structure is formed to extend along the axial direction of the pipe body. The present invention further discloses a liquid heating apparatus and a manufacturing method therefor. The liquid heating apparatus includes the inner pipe and the outer pipe; a heating assembly is disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the outer pipe.

A forming device is a forming device that forms a metal pipe with a flange and includes a forming tool for forming the metal pipe, in which the forming tool includes a first die and a second die that face each other in a first direction in a cross-sectional view, and a third die for regulating a planned flange portion of a metal pipe material, and the third die continues to correct misalignment of the planned flange portion until the first die and the second die are clamped.

A material dispense tip includes an elongated hole in an elongated neck that extends from an input end of the neck to an output end of the neck. The hole at the output end of the neck has a first diameter. The output end of the neck is positioned against a die surface. A punch is inserted into the hole at the input end of the neck. An external force is applied to the neck to cause the output end of the neck to be deformed under compression by the die surface, to reduce the diameter of the hole at the output end of the neck from the first diameter to a second diameter that is less than the first diameter.

The present invention discloses a rolling-bulging forming hydraulic machine for tubular products, which includes a frame. The frame is provided with an upper rolling mechanism, a lower rolling mechanism, a fixed liquid bulging hydraulic cylinder and a movable liquid bulging hydraulic cylinder. The upper rolling mechanism and the lower rolling mechanism are arranged oppositely, and the upper rolling mechanism and the lower rolling mechanism are used to roll surfaces of a to-be-machined tubular product. The fixed liquid bulging hydraulic cylinder and the movable liquid bulging hydraulic cylinder are arranged oppositely, and the fixed liquid bulging hydraulic cylinder and the movable liquid bulging hydraulic cylinder are used to perform hydraulic bulging on the to-be-machined tubular product.

A process for preparing a multi-thickness welded steel vehicle rail, the process comprises the steps of: (a) forming a first tube having a first outer diameter, an inner diameter and a first wall thickness; (b) forming a second tube having the first outer diameter, a second inner diameter and a second wall thickness different than the first wall thickness; (c) swaging a first end of the first tube to a second outer diameter less than the second inner diameter of the second tube; (d) inserting the swaged first end of the first tube into an end of the second tube to form a joint; (e) welding the first tube and the second tube together to form a weld at the joint to form a tube blank with a heat affected zone of lower metal strength in the area of the weld; (f) preheating the tube blank to create a common crystalline microstructure along a length of the tube blank; (g) introducing the tube blank into a blow molding tool having inner molding walls; (h) molding the tube blank at an elevated temperature by expanding the tube blank against the inner molding walls of the molding tool by injecting a pressurized medium into an interior cavity of the tube blank; and (i) quenching the tube blank by replacing the pressurized medium with a cooling medium through the molding tool and the tube blank to achieve a rapid cooling effect on the tube blank and to create a completed vehicle rail with essentially uniform material strength across the weld. A completed vehicle rail has an overlapped welded structure and uniform microcrystalline structure along the length of the rail.
