Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of transportation equipment technology, and in particular to a steel coil transportation system. Background Technology

[0002] With the gradual development of technology and equipment in hot strip mill production lines, the annual output of these lines has also increased. This has led to the coil transport system's slow pace becoming a bottleneck for improving overall production capacity. In hot strip mill production lines, the coil transport line typically uses a trolley unloading structure to unload the coils from the coiler's core shaft and place them on a fixed saddle at the coiler exit for automatic bundling. The coil is then picked up by a transport trolley and placed onto the transport system. The switching between the trolley unloading structure and the transport trolley increases the switching time, thus reducing transport efficiency. Furthermore, many hot strip mill production lines currently in use employ outdated walking beam and chain-type coil transport systems. These systems have a slow transport pace, severely restricting coil transport efficiency and consequently reducing the overall production efficiency of the hot strip mill production line. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a steel coil transportation system for improving the transportation efficiency of steel coils to increase production efficiency.

[0005] The roller conveyor mechanism includes a first roller conveyor and a second roller conveyor arranged side by side, with the first roller conveyor and the second roller conveyor having opposite conveying directions. Along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor, the steel coil transport system is at least divided into a feeding area, a bundling area, and a unloading area.

[0006] The transverse movement mechanism includes a first transverse movement device disposed in the feeding area and a plurality of second transverse movement devices disposed in the unloading area. The plurality of second transverse movement devices are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor. The first transverse movement device and each of the second transverse movement devices are movably disposed between the first roller conveyor and the second roller conveyor.

[0007] Multiple roller conveyor support structures are movably disposed on the first roller conveyor and / or the second roller conveyor, and each of the roller conveyor support structures can be switched between the first roller conveyor and the second roller conveyor via the transverse mechanism;

[0008] The transport mechanism includes at least one unloading and transporting vehicle disposed in the feeding area, the unloading and transporting vehicle being movably connected to the first roller conveyor, the unloading and transporting vehicle being capable of transporting steel coils to the roller conveyor support structure located on the first roller conveyor.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first transverse device is movably disposed between the front end of the first roller conveyor and the rear end of the second roller conveyor, and at least one second transverse device is movably disposed between the rear end of the first roller conveyor and the front end of the second roller conveyor.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the feeding area is provided with a plurality of coilers. Along the conveying direction of the first roller table, the plurality of coilers are arranged side by side. Each coiler is provided with an unloading and transporting trolley between it and the first roller table. The unloading and transporting trolley can transport the steel coils on the coilers to the roller table support structure located on the first roller table.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the integrated unloading and transporting vehicle includes a trolley unloading structure, a trolley carrying structure, and a vehicle body disposed between the trolley unloading structure and the trolley carrying structure.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the outlet of the coiler is provided with a fixed saddle, and the integrated unloading and transporting trolley can transport the steel coil on the coiler to the fixed saddle through the trolley unloading structure, and then transport the steel coil to the roller conveyor coil support structure located on the first roller conveyor through the trolley coil support structure.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first roller conveyor is a heavy-duty roller conveyor, the second roller conveyor is a light-duty roller conveyor, and the heavy-duty roller conveyor and the light-duty roller conveyor are arranged side by side.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the baling area is provided with a tower-shaped repair device, at least one baler, and a weighing device, and the tower-shaped repair device, the baler, and the weighing device are sequentially arranged on the first roller conveyor along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bundling area is further provided with a printing device, and the printing device and the weighing device are arranged at the same position on the first roller conveyor.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the baling area is further provided with an inspection table, and a third transverse movement device is provided between the inspection table and the first roller conveyor. The third transverse movement device is disposed between the tower-shaped repair device and the baler, and the roller conveyor support structure can be switched between the inspection table and the first roller conveyor through the third transverse movement device.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the roller conveyor structure includes a tray, which is movably disposed on the first roller conveyor and / or the second roller conveyor.

[0018] The technical solution of the present invention has the following significant beneficial effects:

[0019] In use, the steel coil transport system of this invention utilizes an integrated unloading and transporting vehicle to transport the steel coil to a roller conveyor support structure located on the first roller conveyor. The roller conveyor support structure carries the steel coil along the first roller conveyor, transporting it from the feeding area to the bundling area. In the bundling area, the steel coils on the roller conveyor support structure can be bundled, weighed, and marked. Then, the roller conveyor support structure continues to transport the bundled steel coils to the unloading area. In the unloading area, external lifting equipment transports the bundled steel coils to a designated bay in the rear steel coil warehouse. The unloaded roller conveyor support structure is switched from the first roller conveyor to the second roller conveyor via a second lateral movement device. Since the first and second roller conveyors have opposite transport directions, the roller conveyor support structure can achieve a return flow via the second roller conveyor. When the roller conveyor support structure moves to the first lateral movement device, it can switch back from the second roller conveyor to the first roller conveyor via the first lateral movement device, thus continuing to support steel coils.

[0020] In particular, when multiple roller conveyor coil support structures and multiple second traverse devices are simultaneously installed on the steel coil transport system, the multiple second traverse devices are spaced apart between the first and second roller conveyors. This allows the multiple roller conveyor coil support structures to achieve recirculation through idle second traverse devices at different positions, reducing the recirculation waiting time and significantly improving the recirculation efficiency. Therefore, compared to existing steel coil transport lines with the same number of roller conveyor coil support structures, the roller conveyor coil support structure in this invention has a higher utilization rate. Furthermore, the integrated unloading and transport vehicle in this invention simultaneously has unloading and transport functions, improving the switching efficiency during unloading and transport, saving transport time, accelerating the transport pace, and reducing equipment size.

[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a steel coil transport system, which includes a roller conveyor mechanism 1, a traversing mechanism, multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400, and a transport mechanism 4. The roller conveyor mechanism 1 includes a first roller conveyor 11 and a second roller conveyor 12 arranged side by side, with the conveying directions of the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12 being opposite. Along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11, the steel coil transport system is at least divided into a feeding area 100, a bundling area 200, and a unloading area 300. The traversing mechanism includes a first traversing device 2 disposed in the feeding area 100 and multiple second traversing devices 3 disposed in the unloading area 300. Along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11, multiple traversing devices 400 are arranged side by side. The second transverse movement device 3 is arranged at intervals. The first transverse movement device 2 and each of the second transverse movement devices 3 can be movably arranged between the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12. Multiple roller conveyor support structures 400 are movably arranged on the first roller conveyor 11 and / or the second roller conveyor 12. Each roller conveyor support structure 400 can be switched between the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12 through the transverse movement mechanism. The transport mechanism 4 includes at least one unloading and transporting integrated vehicle 41 arranged in the feeding area 100. The unloading and transporting integrated vehicle 41 is movably connected to the first roller conveyor 11. The unloading and transporting integrated vehicle 41 can transport the steel coil 500 to the roller conveyor support structure 400 located on the first roller conveyor 11.

[0042] Overall, when the steel coil transportation system is in use, the steel coil 500 is transported to the roller conveyor structure 400 located on the first roller conveyor 11 by the integrated unloading and transporting vehicle 41 of the transportation mechanism 4. The roller conveyor structure 400 can drive the steel coil 500 to be transported along the first roller conveyor 11, thereby transporting the steel coil 500 from the feeding area 100 to the bundling area 200. In the bundling area 200, the steel coil 500 on the roller conveyor structure 400 can be bundled, weighed and marked. Then the roller conveyor structure 400 continues to transport the bundled steel coil 500 to the unloading area 300. In the unloading area 300, the bundled steel coil 500 is transported to the designated span of the rear steel coil warehouse by external lifting equipment. The unloaded roller conveyor structure 400 is switched from the first roller conveyor 11 to the second roller conveyor 12 by the second transverse transfer device 3. Since the conveying directions of the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12 are opposite, the roller conveyor support structure 400 can achieve reflow through the second roller conveyor 12. When the roller conveyor support structure 400 moves to the first transverse device 2, the roller conveyor support structure 400 can be switched from the second roller conveyor 12 back to the first roller conveyor 11 through the first transverse device 2, so that it can continue to be used to support the steel coil 500.

[0043] In particular, when multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 and multiple second transverse movement devices 3 are simultaneously installed on the steel coil transport system, since the multiple second transverse movement devices 3 are spaced apart between the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12, the multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 can achieve recirculation through the idle second transverse movement devices 3 at different positions, reducing the recirculation waiting time of the roller conveyor coil support structures 400 and significantly improving the recirculation efficiency of the roller conveyor coil support structures 400. As a result, when the steel coil transport line of the present invention has the same number of roller conveyor coil support structures 400, the roller conveyor coil support structures 400 of the present invention have a higher utilization rate.

[0044] Furthermore, the integrated unloading and transporting vehicle 41 of this invention has both unloading and transporting functions, which improves the switching efficiency during the unloading and transporting process, saves transportation time, speeds up the transportation pace, and reduces the size of the equipment.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first transverse device 2 is movably disposed between the front end of the first roller conveyor 11 and the rear end of the second roller conveyor 12, and at least one second transverse device 3 is movably disposed between the rear end of the first roller conveyor 11 and the front end of the second roller conveyor 12.

[0046] By placing the first transverse device 2 between the front end of the first roller conveyor 11 and the rear end of the second roller conveyor 12, the roller conveyor coil support structure 400 can be quickly switched from the rear end of the second roller conveyor 12 to the front end of the first roller conveyor 11 via the first transverse device 2 to support the steel coil 500. By placing at least one second transverse device 3 between the rear end of the first roller conveyor 11 and the front end of the second roller conveyor 12, the roller conveyor coil support structure 400 can be quickly switched from the rear end of the first roller conveyor 11 to the front end of the second roller conveyor 12 via the second transverse device 3 for reflow operation.

[0047] Furthermore, by arranging the first transverse device 2 and at least one second transverse device 3 opposite to each other at both ends of the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12, multiple steel coils 500 can be transported using the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12, thus avoiding equipment waste caused by some of the first roller conveyor 11 and some of the second roller conveyor 12 being unloaded.

[0048] Furthermore, the remaining second transverse movement devices 3 are sequentially and spaced apart along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11, thus forming multiple transverse movement switching positions. When multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 are spaced apart on the first roller conveyor 11, each roller conveyor coil support structure 400 can drive each steel coil 500 sequentially through the feeding area 100 and the bundling area 200 to reach the unloading area 300. The multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 can transport the steel coil 500 to the unloading area 300 for unloading operations. Subsequently, the unloaded roller conveyor coil support structures 400 can be switched from the first roller conveyor 11 to the second roller conveyor 12 by the second transverse movement devices 3 at different positions, significantly improving the return efficiency of each roller conveyor coil support structure 400.

[0049] Each roller conveyor support structure 400 can be switched simultaneously by the second transverse movement device 3 at different positions, or each roller conveyor support structure 400 can be switched sequentially by moving to the second transverse movement device 3 at different positions according to the settings. No specific restrictions are made here.

[0050] Since multiple second transverse devices 3 can drive multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 to switch, the accumulation of multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 on the first roller conveyor 11 is avoided, which significantly improves the return efficiency of the roller conveyor coil support structures 400 and thus improves the transportation capacity of the steel coil transportation system.

[0051] Designers can adjust the number and spacing of the second transverse movement device 3 according to usage needs, without making specific restrictions here.

[0052] In one specific embodiment, both the first transverse device 2 and the second transverse device 3 can be configured as light-load transverse devices. The light-load transverse devices can transport the unloaded roller conveyor structure 400, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present invention, the feeding area 100 is provided with a plurality of coilers 5. Along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11, the plurality of coilers 5 are arranged side by side. Each coiler 5 is provided with an unloading and transporting integrated vehicle 41 between it and the first roller conveyor 11. The unloading and transporting integrated vehicle 41 can transport the steel coil 500 on the coiler 5 to the roller conveyor support structure 400 located on the first roller conveyor 11.

[0054] The coiler 5 can wind up the steel strip to form a steel coil 500. By setting multiple coilers 5 in the feeding area 100, multiple coilers 5 can supply multiple steel coils 500 in a coordinated manner, and each steel coil 500 can be transported sequentially to the roller support structure 400 of the first roller conveyor 11 by the unloading and transporting integrated vehicle 41 corresponding to each coiler 5. This significantly increases the transport efficiency of the first roller conveyor 11, thereby improving the bundling efficiency of the steel coils 500 and avoiding the transport volume of the steel coil transport system from restricting the production rhythm of the steel coils 500.

[0055] In one specific embodiment, three coilers 5 can be simultaneously arranged along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11. The three coilers 5 are arranged at intervals, so that the three coilers 5 can supply a maximum of three steel coils 500 to the first roller conveyor 11, which significantly improves the bundling efficiency of the steel coils 500 and can make full use of the conveying capacity of the first roller conveyor 11, thereby improving the conveying efficiency.

[0056] In other specific embodiments, the designer may determine the specific structure and number of winding machines 5 according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0057] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 The embodiment shown includes a trolley unloading and transporting vehicle 41, which includes a trolley unloading structure 412, a trolley carrying structure 413, and a vehicle body 411 disposed between the trolley unloading structure 412 and the trolley carrying structure 413.

[0058] The trolley unloading structure 412 can remove the steel coil 500 from the coiler 5 and transport it to the target position. Then, the trolley coil support structure 413 on the trolley body 411 is switched to transport the steel coil 500 to the roller support structure 400 on the first roller conveyor 11. The roller support structure 400 can transport the steel coil 500 along the first roller conveyor 11 to the bundling area 200 for bundling. Then, the bundled steel coil 500 is transported to the unloading area 300 for unloading.

[0059] By connecting the trolley unloading structure 412 and the roller conveyor coil support structure 400 using the trolley body 411, the trolley unloading structure 412 and the trolley coil support structure 413 can move synchronously, thereby improving the switching efficiency between the trolley unloading structure 412 and the roller conveyor coil support structure 400, and thus improving the transportation efficiency of the steel coil 500 between the coiler 5 and the first roller conveyor 11.

[0060] In one specific embodiment, the trolley unloading structure 412 is configured as a coil support roller assembly, and the roller conveyor coil support structure 400 is configured as a coil support arm. Furthermore, the trolley body 411 may also have a lifting frame 414, on which the coil support roller assembly and the coil support arm are arranged side by side. The height position of the coil support roller assembly and the coil support arm can be adjusted by the lifting frame 414 to better transport the steel coil 500.

[0061] Furthermore, a traveling wheel assembly 415 is also provided on the car body 411, and a third roller conveyor 8 can be provided below the traveling wheel assembly 415. The third roller conveyor 8 is located between the coiler 5 and the first roller conveyor 11. The car body 411 is movably mounted on the third roller conveyor 8 via the traveling wheel assembly 415, so that the coil support roller group and the coil support arm can better transport the steel coil 500 on the coiler 5 to the roller support structure 400 on the first roller conveyor 11.

[0062] When the trolley unloading structure 412 and the roller conveyor support structure 400 are connected via the trolley body 411, the trolley unloading structure 412 and the roller conveyor support structure 400 can share a single traveling wheel assembly 415 and lifting frame 414, thereby reducing manufacturing costs. The transport and unloading actions of the trolley unloading structure 412 can both be hydraulically driven.

[0063] Of course, designers can also adjust the specific structure of the unloading and transporting coil integrated vehicle 41 according to the needs of use. For example, the unloading and transporting coil integrated vehicle 41 can be composed of components such as the vehicle body 411, track assembly, energy chain and piping, without specific restrictions.

[0064] In an embodiment of the present invention, the outlet of the coiler 5 is provided with a fixed saddle 51. The unloading and transporting integrated trolley 41 can transport the steel coil 500 on the coiler 5 to the fixed saddle 51 through the trolley unloading structure 412, and then transport the steel coil 500 to the roller conveyor winding structure 400 located on the first roller conveyor 11 through the trolley winding support structure 413.

[0065] By providing a fixed saddle 51 at the exit of the coiler 5, the fixed saddle 51 can better support the steel coil 500, thereby avoiding scratches on the surface of the steel coil 500 and improving the surface quality of the steel coil 500. Furthermore, the fixed saddle 51 provides switching space for the trolley unloading structure 412 and the trolley coil-supporting structure 413. After the trolley unloading structure 412 transports the steel coil 500 onto the fixed saddle 51, the trolley coil-supporting structure 413 can then lift the steel coil 500 from the fixed saddle 51 for transport to the roller conveyor coil-supporting structure 400 on the first roller conveyor 11, thus facilitating a rapid completion of the transportation process.

[0066] Designers can adjust the specific structure of the fixed saddle 51 according to the needs of use, such as a saddle formed by multiple idlers, without making specific restrictions here.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first roller conveyor 11 is a heavy-load roller conveyor, the second roller conveyor 12 is a light-load roller conveyor, and the heavy-load roller conveyor and the light-load roller conveyor are arranged side by side.

[0068] Heavy-duty roller conveyors can transport the roller conveyor support structure 400 and the steel coils 500 on it, possessing a large transport load-bearing capacity and improving transport stability. Light-duty roller conveyors, on the other hand, only transport the empty roller conveyor support structure 400, and therefore do not require a large load-bearing capacity.

[0069] By differentiating the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12, manufacturing costs are reduced while still meeting usage requirements. Designers can adjust the spacing between the light-load and heavy-load roller conveyors according to the available installation space; no specific limitations are imposed here.

[0070] The steel coil transport system described in this invention can be obtained by upgrading the existing roller conveyor structure. By utilizing existing roller conveyor lines for lifting and lowering modifications, the site constraints at the installation location can be effectively addressed, allowing it to be applied in smaller factory spaces and improving construction efficiency.

[0071] Alternatively, the steel coil transport system of this invention can be newly built in the factory to improve the transport efficiency of the steel coil 500, without any specific limitation.

[0072] For example, when a light-load roller conveyor already exists in the existing transport line, a heavy-load roller conveyor can be added to the side of the light-load roller conveyor to form a roller conveyor mechanism 1. Then, a transverse movement mechanism, multiple roller conveyor coil support structures 400 and a transport mechanism 4 are set on the roller conveyor mechanism 1 to transport the steel coil 500.

[0073] Similarly, when a heavy-duty roller conveyor already exists in the existing transport line, a light-duty roller conveyor can be added to the side of the heavy-duty roller conveyor. Alternatively, when both light-duty and heavy-duty roller conveyors exist in the existing transport line, a traversing mechanism, multiple roller conveyor support structures 400, and a transport mechanism 4 can be added between the light-duty and heavy-duty roller conveyors. Designers can make flexible adjustments according to actual modification needs, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0074] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, the baling area 200 is provided with a tower-shaped repair device 111, at least one baler 112, and a weighing device 113. Along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11, the tower-shaped repair device 111, the baler 112, and the weighing device 113 are sequentially arranged on the first roller conveyor 11.

[0075] The tower-shaped repair device 111 can quickly repair the tower-shaped end face on the steel coil 500, improving the overall shape of the steel coil 500. The shaped steel coil 500 has a flatter end face, making it easier to perform bundling operations.

[0076] In one specific embodiment, the tower-shaped repair device 111 consists of a frame, a clamping hydraulic cylinder, a guide rod, and a clapping component. The clamping hydraulic cylinder drives the clapping component to move, which flattens the tower-shaped end face of the steel coil 500, thereby improving the flatness of the end face of the steel coil 500. The guide rod guides the movement of the clapping component, preventing it from shifting and improving its operational stability.

[0077] In other specific examples, designers may adjust the specific structure of the tower-shaped repair device 111 according to the needs of use, without making specific restrictions here.

[0078] Furthermore, along the conveying direction of the first roller conveyor 11, multiple balers 112 can be simultaneously installed on the first roller conveyor 11. Each baler 112 can perform baling operations on different steel coils 500, thereby improving the baling efficiency of the steel coils 500 in a coordinated manner. Designers can determine the specific structure and number of balers 112 according to the usage requirements, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0079] After the steel coil 500 is bundled by the bundling machine 112, the roller conveyor structure 400 can transport the bundled steel coil 500 to the weighing device 113. The weighing device 113 can weigh the steel coil 500 to obtain the weight data of each steel coil 500.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present invention, the bundling area 200 is further provided with a printing device 114, and the printing device 114 and the weighing device 113 are located at the same position on the first roller conveyor 11.

[0081] By placing the printing device 114 and the weighing device 113 at the same position on the first roller conveyor 11, the steel coil 500 is in a relatively stationary state when it is being weighed on the weighing device 113. At this time, markings can be printed on the steel coil 500 using the printing device 114, thereby improving the printing efficiency of the steel coil 500. Designers can determine the specific structure of the printing device 114 according to their needs; no specific limitations are imposed here.

[0082] In an embodiment of the present invention, the bundling area 200 is further provided with an inspection table 7, and a third transverse movement device 6 is provided between the inspection table 7 and the first roller conveyor 11. The third transverse movement device 6 is located between the tower-shaped repair device 111 and the bundling machine 112, and the roller conveyor support structure 400 can switch between the inspection table 7 and the first roller conveyor 11 via the third transverse movement device 6.

[0083] The third transverse conveyor 6 can transport the steel coil 500 from the first roller conveyor 11 to the inspection table 7, where the steel coil 500 can be inspected, thus facilitating the acquisition of the quality status of each steel coil 500.

[0084] For example, when the end face of the steel coil 500 is found to be tower-shaped, the end of the steel coil 500 is shaped by the tower-shaped repair device 111 installed on the first roller conveyor 11 in the subsequent process, thereby improving the end face quality of the steel coil 500.

[0085] Of course, operators can adjust the inspection type of steel coil 500 as needed to better obtain the quality status of steel coil 500, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0086] Specifically, the third transverse transfer device 6 can be configured as a heavy-duty transverse transfer device, which can stably transport the roller conveyor support structure 400 and the steel coil 500 on the roller conveyor support structure 400, thus providing better stability and safety in use.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present invention, the roller conveyor support structure 400 includes a tray, which is movably disposed on the first roller conveyor 11 and / or the second roller conveyor 12.

[0088] Specifically, the pallet can move along the first roller conveyor 11 and the second roller conveyor 12. When the pallet is on the first roller conveyor 11, it can support the steel coil 500 and move along the first roller conveyor 11 together with the steel coil 500, thereby conveying the steel coil 500. After the steel coil 500 is unwound, the empty pallet can continue to move to one of the second transverse devices 3. The second transverse device 3 switches the empty pallet from the first roller conveyor 11 to the second roller conveyor 12, so that the empty pallet can return along the second roller conveyor 12, which speeds up the pallet return efficiency.
