Do you use a 90-degree elbow or a 45-degree elbow to connect the lower drain pipe and the horizontal pipe in the bathroom?
45 degree elbow joint.

90 degrees is inconvenient to discharge dirt and easy to block.

Extended data

process flow

Seamless elbow: elbow is a kind of pipe fitting used for pipe turning. Among all the pipe fittings used in the pipeline system, the proportion is the largest, about 80%. Usually, for elbows with different materials or wall thicknesses, different forming processes are selected. The common forming processes of seamless elbow are hot pushing, stamping and extrusion.

1. Hot push molding

Hot-push elbow forming process is a process that uses special elbow thruster, mandrel and heating device to make the blank sheathed on the die move forward under the push of the thruster and expand and bend under heat during the movement. The deformation characteristic of hot push elbow is to determine the diameter of tube blank according to the law that the volume of metal material remains unchanged before and after plastic deformation.

The diameter of the tube blank is smaller than that of the elbow, and the deformation process of the blank is controlled by the mandrel, so that the compressed metal at the inner arc flows and is compensated to other parts with enlarged diameter and thinner thickness, thus obtaining the elbow with uniform wall thickness.

The forming process of hot-push elbow has the characteristics of beautiful appearance, uniform wall thickness and continuous operation, which is suitable for mass production. Therefore, it has become the main forming method of carbon steel and alloy steel elbows, and is also applied to the forming of some stainless steel elbows.

The heating methods in the molding process include medium-frequency or high-frequency induction heating (the heating ring can be multi-turn or single-turn), flame heating and reverberatory furnace heating, and which heating method is adopted depends on the requirements of molded products and energy situation.

2. Stamping forming

Stamping elbow is the earliest forming process used in batch production of seamless elbow. It has been replaced by hot pushing or other forming processes in the production of elbows with ordinary specifications, but in some specifications, the production capacity is small, and the wall thickness is too thick or too thin.

The product is still in use when it has special requirements. The tube blank with the same outer diameter as the elbow is used for elbow stamping, and it is directly pressed into the mold by a press.

Before stamping, the tube blank is placed on the lower die, the inner core and the end die are placed in the tube blank, the upper die moves down to start pressing, and the elbow is formed through the constraint of the outer die and the support of the inner die.

Compared with hot pushing process, the appearance quality of stamping is not as good as the former; The outer arc of the punching elbow is in tension during forming, and there is no extra metal to compensate other parts, so the wall thickness of the outer arc is reduced by about 10%. However, because stamping elbow technology is suitable for single-piece production and has low cost, it is mostly used for the manufacture of small batch and thick-walled elbows.

Stamping elbows are divided into cold stamping and hot stamping. Cold stamping or hot stamping is usually selected according to material properties and equipment capacity.

The forming process of cold extrusion elbow is to put the tube blank into the outer die with a special elbow forming machine. After the upper and lower dies are closed, the tube blank moves along the gap left between the inner die and the outer die under the push of the push rod to complete the forming process.

The elbow made by cold extrusion process of internal and external dies has beautiful appearance, uniform wall thickness and small dimensional deviation, so this process is often used to make stainless steel elbows, especially thin-walled stainless steel elbows. The inner and outer dies used in this process require high precision; The wall thickness deviation of tube blank is also high.

3. Welding of medium plate

Use the medium plate to make a half elbow section with a press, and then weld the two sections together. This process is usually used to manufacture elbows above DN700.

4. Other molding methods

In addition to the above three common forming processes, seamless elbow is also formed by extruding the tube blank onto the outer die and then forming it through the balls in the tube blank. However, this process is relatively complicated and troublesome to operate, and the molding quality is not as good as the previous process, so it is rarely used.
