Abstract
A pipe bending device comprising a movable unit mounted on a bed in a manner to move longitudinally of the bed. The movable unit carries a twisting motor, a bending/twisting motor, and a support plate projecting upright. A pipe retaining unit is mounted on the projecting end portion of the support plate for retaining a pipe to be worked and is rotated by a twisting plate by a predetermined angle within 360 degrees on the axis of the retained pipe. A bending roller unit is mounted on the twisting plate for bending the pipe, which is held by the twisting plate, by a predetermined angle in a plane normal to the twisting plate. A first rotation transmitting train is arranged on one side of the support plate for transmitting the rotation of the twisting motor to the twisting plate. A second rotation transmitting train is arranged on the other side of the support plate for transmitting the rotation of the bending/twisting motor to the bending roller unit.
