Abstract

Disclosed are differential temperature push bending method and device for tube with small bending radius, the device comprising: a push bending die, core, fillers and pushers, wherein the core and the fillers are both arranged in a bending chamber of the push bending die, an inlet and an outlet end of the push bending die are respectively provided with a front guiding sleeve and a rear guiding sleeve, the pusher in the front guiding sleeve abuts against a plurality of fillers, and the pusher in the rear guide sleeve abuts against the core. A heat rod is provided at an outer end of the bending chamber. The present disclosure adopts differential temperature type push bending, flow performance of the tube blank at the outer corner of the die can be improved, and the material can be timely fed to prevent excessive stretching and thinning of the outer material.
