A diameter-expanding tool head and a diameter-expanding method thereof, the tool head comprises an expanding section forming convex portions and concave portions disposed at intervals on an outer peripheral surface, any one of the concave portions is formed between any two of the convex portions, each of the convex portions has a convex peak, the convex peak is a part farthest from an axis, each distance is equal, the convex peaks are connected to form a diameter-expanding surface spanning each of the concave portions. The expanding section is rotatably inserted into a channel of a body to be expanded, and is in discontinuous contact with the channel through the convex and concave portions, a diameter of at least a part of the body to be expanded is expanded to form a diameter-expanded channel, and an inner wall surface of the diameter-expanded channel is flush with the diameter-expanding surface.

Embodiments provide improved flaring and swaging bits, and methods for flaring and swaging.

A mold tool generally includes a base, a die assembly, a tightening element, a threaded element, and at least one shaping cap. The base defines a cutout, a first threaded hole opposite to the cutout, and a second threaded hole. The die assembly, composed of a first module and a second module, can be inserted into a receiving space of the base. The tightening element can be screwed into the second threaded hole of the base to fix the die assembly in place. The threaded element can be screwed into the first threaded hole of the base. The shaping cap can be fitted at one end of the threaded element. The die assembly defines channels of various diameters each for holding a tube of a specific diameter. The shaping cap can urge one end of a tube held in the die assembly to form a specific type of flare.

A clamping device of a tube flaring tool for firmly and precisely clamping a tube includes a base having a slot and a clamping assembly having two clamping members to clamp a tube therebetween. The clamping assembly is received in the slot of the base, and a gap is formed between a working end of the clamping assembly and a sidewall of the slot for a stopping member inserted into the gap. The stopping member has opposite sides abutting against the sidewall of the slot, the working end of the clamping assembly, and an end of the tube clamped by the clamping assembly to precisely position the tube at a predetermined portion for the following flaring task.

A pipe expanding head, a pipe expanding head assembly, and a pipe expanding plier are provided. A distance from a point on an outer periphery of a largest radial cross section of the first joint arc part to the central axis is not less than a distance from a point on an outer periphery of the first radial cross section to the central axis, and the distance from the point on the outer periphery of the largest radial cross section of the first joint arc part to the central axis is larger than a distance from a point on an outer periphery of the second radial cross section to the central axis; and a distance from a point on an outer periphery of a largest radial cross section of the second joint arc part to the central axis is also similar.

An electric pipe expander and intelligent control circuit for the electric pipe expander are provided The electric pipe expander includes a pipe expander body and a mandrel sliding cavity disposed on the pipe expander body. A chuck body capable of clamping a pipe to be processed is disposed at an opening end of the mandrel sliding cavity. A mandrel is slidingly connected in the mandrel sliding cavity, an outer side end of the mandrel is provided with an obliquely disposed pipe expanding cone, an inner side end of the mandrel is provided with an elastic body accommodating cavity. Flat keys are disposed on the mandrel, and an elastic body is clamped and disposed between the flat keys and a bottom surface of the elastic body accommodating cavity.

A tool including a front housing and an expander head ring that is readily attachable and detachable from the front housing. The front housing may be coupled to the tool body, or can be integral with the tool body. The front housing may have a mating end that has one or more locking tabs that are configured to be engaged by the expander head ring. The expander head ring may carry one or more functional elements such as a die set that may be expanded by insertion of an expander extending from the tool such as by manual actuation of the tool. A plurality of expander head rings, each with a different size die set, can be alternatively attached to the front housing, depending on the desired extent of expanding of the pipe or the like with the tool.

A rotary pipe sizing tool for expanding or shrinking a pipe includes a main member having a driving portion, a clamping device provided at an end of the driving portion of the main member; and a rotating mechanism provided between the main member and the clamping device. The clamping device is free to rotate relative to the main member through the rotating mechanism to make the rotary pipe sizing tool operate in a narrow or a space that is hard to reach.

A swage mechanism operable to expand an inner diameter of tubing. The swage mechanism includes a housing defining a longitudinal axis, a plurality of jaws coupled to the housing and movable relative to the longitudinal axis for selectively gripping the tubing, and a ram including a cylindrical portion and a frusto-conical head portion. The frusto-conical head portion of the ram is insertable into the tubing to expand the inner diameter of the tubing.
