[0002] With the development of automated equipment, steel mesh can now be produced automatically. The mesh machine is a device that welds multiple steel bars to form a steel mesh. The coiled steel bars are straightened and cut by the straightening system in the mesh machine, and then placed into the predetermined horizontal and vertical bar positions by the bar placement system. The mesh is then cross-pressed and welded by the welding mechanism to form the finished steel mesh.
[0003] Currently, the straightening system of a steel mesh machine generally includes a horizontal bar straightening device and a vertical bar straightening device. It can only straighten one section of steel bar at a time. The production speed of steel mesh is mainly affected by the straightening speed and welding speed. With the continuous improvement of production efficiency requirements, the welding speed of horizontal and vertical bars is constantly increasing with the increase of welding transformers. However, the straightening speed of steel bars is gradually becoming the bottleneck of steel mesh production efficiency. Therefore, the existing steel bar straightening system still has the problem of low straightening efficiency that cannot meet production needs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defect that the straightening efficiency of the existing steel bar straightening system is low and cannot meet the production needs, thereby providing a steel bar processing method, a steel bar straightening system and a steel bar mesh production line.

[0008] Step S30: According to the numbering sequence of the multiple steel bars, control the straightening mechanism corresponding to each steel bar to straighten the steel bar to be straightened, so that the steel bar group is straightened by its corresponding straightening mechanism.

[0014] Step S43: Control the alignment chamber to align the reinforcing bars and drop the aligned reinforcing bars onto the material placement line of the reinforcing bar placement system.
[0015] Optionally, step S42 includes:
[0016] Determine whether there is material in the current intermediate warehouse;
[0017] Determine whether the previously mentioned steel bars have been placed on the fabric placement line;
[0018] If the current intermediate bin contains material and the aligning bin has already placed the previously placed steel bars onto the fabric distribution line, then control the current intermediate bin to place the steel bars into the aligning bin.
[0019] Optionally, step S43 includes:
[0020] Determine whether there is material in the bin;
[0021] If there is material in the sizing bin, then control the sizing bin to size the material;
[0022] Determine whether the material drop position on the fabric line corresponds to the material discharge position of the aligning bin;
[0023] If the material drop position on the fabric line corresponds to the material discharge position of the alignment bin, then the alignment bin is controlled to drop the steel bar onto the fabric line.
[0024] Optionally, step S30 includes:

[0026] If there is no material in the current intermediate silo, the corresponding straightening mechanism is controlled to straighten the steel bar to be straightened.
[0027] Optionally, the number of straightening mechanisms is two, and the two groups of steel bars include odd-numbered groups and even-numbered groups.
[0028] Optionally, in step S30, at least two of the straightening mechanisms begin straightening simultaneously.
[0029] The present invention also provides a rebar straightening system, comprising: at least two independently operating straightening mechanisms corresponding to a plurality of rebars extending in the same direction as the rebar mesh to be produced, wherein the at least two straightening mechanisms are adapted to straighten the rebars to be straightened according to at least two groups of rebars divided into a plurality of rebars.
[0030] The present invention also provides a steel mesh production line, characterized in that it includes: the steel bar straightening system as described in claim 9.
[0031] The present invention has the following advantages:
[0032] 1. Divide the transverse or longitudinal reinforcing bars to be straightened into multiple groups. Each group is straightened using a corresponding straightening mechanism. Multiple straightening mechanisms straighten simultaneously and output the straightened reinforcing bars in the order of their numbers. With the straightening time of a single straightening mechanism remaining constant, the output cycle of the straightened reinforcing bars is effectively accelerated, greatly increasing the straightening efficiency. Furthermore, the straightening efficiency can be adjusted by changing the number of reinforcing bar groups and straightening mechanisms. This effectively solves the problem of low straightening efficiency in existing reinforcing bar straightening systems that cannot meet production needs, improving efficiency while also making the method more versatile.
[0033] 2. By splitting the data, the original steel bar data is divided into odd-numbered items and even-numbered items, and sent to two independent straightening systems. During production, the two straightening systems can start production simultaneously, and through logic control, the straightened steel bars from the two straightening systems fall into the alignment bin in sequence. After alignment, they fall onto the feeding chain in order. The straightening efficiency will be twice that of a single straightening system. Attached Figure Description

[0044] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. 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.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0046] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0047] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the steel bar processing method in this embodiment includes:
[0049] Step S10: Obtain the number of straightening mechanisms 30 corresponding to multiple reinforcing bars, wherein the number of straightening mechanisms 30 is at least two, and at least two straightening mechanisms 30 work independently;
[0050] Step S20: Divide the numbered steel bars into steel bar groups that correspond one-to-one with the straightening mechanism 30;
[0051] Step S30: According to the numbering sequence of multiple steel bars, control the corresponding straightening mechanism 30 to straighten the steel bars to be straightened, so that the steel bar group can be straightened by its corresponding straightening mechanism 30.
[0052] The steel bar processing method of this embodiment divides the transverse bars 52 or longitudinal bars 51 to be straightened into multiple steel bar groups. Each steel bar group is straightened using a corresponding straightening mechanism 30. Multiple straightening mechanisms 30 straighten simultaneously and output the straightened steel bars in the order of their numbers. With the straightening time of a single straightening mechanism 30 remaining unchanged, the output cycle of the straightened steel bars is effectively accelerated, greatly increasing the straightening efficiency. Moreover, the straightening efficiency can be adjusted by changing the number of steel bar groups and straightening mechanisms 30. This effectively solves the problem of low straightening efficiency in existing steel bar straightening systems that cannot meet production needs, improving efficiency while also making the method more versatile.
[0053] Since the speed of the steel bars during straightening in the straightening mechanism 30 is not uniform, in order to ensure that there is a certain time difference when the straightened steel bars are output by multiple straightening mechanisms 30, each straightening mechanism 30 needs to use a separate power source. At the same time, in order to simplify the control process of each straightening mechanism 30 and to effectively improve the straightening efficiency, after numbering multiple steel bars, adjacent numbered steel bars should not be straightened by the same straightening mechanism 30 as much as possible. An example is given below:
[0054] The four adjacent steel bars are designated as the first, second, third, and fourth steel bars, and are divided into two groups: the first and third steel bars in one group, and the second and fourth steel bars in another group. The four steel bars are straightened by two straightening mechanisms 30. Both mechanisms 30 begin straightening simultaneously. After one mechanism 30 completes straightening of the first steel bar, it immediately begins straightening the third steel bar. The other mechanism 30 completes straightening of the second steel bar after the first mechanism 30 has finished straightening the first, and so on, until the fourth steel bar has finished straightening the third. There is a time difference between the output of the straightened steel bars by the two straightening mechanisms 30, thus alternating the output of the straightened steel bars. The original straightening time for the four steel bars is reduced to half the original time due to the accelerated straightening cycle, effectively speeding up the straightening process.
[0055] In this embodiment, step S30 is followed by:
[0056] Step S40: Control the straightened steel bars to enter the reinforcement system 60 for reinforcement placement;
[0057] The straightened steel bars then enter the reinforcement system 60. Since the straightened steel bars fall into the reinforcement system 60 in numerical order, the reinforcement system 60 can then perform reinforcement placement on the multiple steel bars in the current sorting state without any additional sorting steps.
[0058] In this embodiment, in step S40, at least two straightening mechanisms are controlled to sequentially drop the straightened reinforcing bars into the alignment chamber of the reinforcing bar system 60 according to their numbering order. Since the reinforcing mesh has certain dimensions and specifications, the transverse or longitudinal bars of the reinforcing mesh need to be aligned at one end during the reinforcement arrangement. Therefore, in order to ensure that the reinforcement arrangement is controllable and orderly, alignment is required before the reinforcement is arranged.
[0059] In this embodiment, step S40 includes:
[0060] Step S40 includes:
[0061] Step S41: Control the straightened steel bars to fall into the corresponding intermediate compartment in the reinforcement system 60;
[0062] Step S42: Control the corresponding intermediate compartments to drop the steel bars into the alignment compartments of the reinforcement system 60 according to the numbering sequence;
[0063] Step S43: Control the alignment bin to align the reinforcing bars and drop the aligned reinforcing bars onto the material placement line of the reinforcement placement system 60.
[0064] Since a single straightening bin is typically sufficient for a unidirectional straightening system, an intermediate bin is provided at the output end of each straightening mechanism 30 to ensure that the straightened rebar from multiple straightening mechanisms 30 can smoothly enter the straightening bin. The straightened rebar from each straightening mechanism 30 is guided to the straightening bin via the intermediate bin. Alternatively, as an alternative implementation, multiple straightening bins can be provided in a unidirectional straightening system, with each straightening mechanism 30 corresponding to one straightening bin.
[0065] In this embodiment, step S42 includes:
[0066] Determine if there is any material in the current intermediate warehouse;
[0067] Determine whether the previously placed steel bars have been lowered to the concrete placement line;
[0068] If there is material in the current intermediate bin and the previous steel bars have been placed on the material placement line in the slab bin, then control the current intermediate bin to place the steel bars into the slab bin.
[0069] In this embodiment, step S43 includes:
[0070] Determine if there is material in the warehouse;
[0071] If there are materials in the warehouse, then control the filling of the warehouse;
[0072] Determine whether the material drop position on the fabric line corresponds to the material discharge position of the sizing bin;
[0073] If the material drop position on the material placement line corresponds to the material discharge position of the material collection bin, then control the material collection bin to drop the steel bars onto the material placement line.
[0074] In this embodiment, step S30 includes:
[0075] Determine if there is any material in the current intermediate warehouse;
[0076] If there is no material in the current intermediate warehouse, control the corresponding straightening mechanism 30 to straighten the steel bars to be straightened.
[0077] Specifically, there are no restrictions on the method of aligning and arranging the reinforcing bars in the aligning bin. Multiple reinforcing bars can be aligned together after being placed into the aligning bin in numerical order, followed by reinforcement arrangement. Alternatively, a single reinforcing bar can be placed into the aligning bin, aligned, and then reinforced immediately, with multiple reinforcing bars aligned and arranged in numerical order. The choice can be made based on the specific processing procedure.
[0078] In this embodiment, there are two straightening mechanisms 30. The two groups of steel bars include odd and even groups. Two independent straightening mechanisms 30 are used. The original steel bar data is split into odd and even items by data splitting and sent to two independent straightening systems respectively. During production, the two straightening systems can start production simultaneously. Through logic control, the straightened steel bars in the two straightening systems fall into the alignment bin in sequence. After alignment, they fall onto the feeding chain in sequence. The straightening efficiency will be twice that of a single straightening system.
[0079] Specifically, the numbering sequence of the several transverse ribs 52 in the standard mesh is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, when several transverse reinforcing bars 52 are divided into two groups, the numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, and 17 form an odd group, and the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 form an even group. One straightening mechanism 30 straightens the reinforcing bars in the odd group, and the other straightening mechanism 30 straightens the reinforcing bars in the even group. The two straightening mechanisms 30 start straightening simultaneously and alternately output the straightened reinforcing bars. It can be understood that, as an alternative implementation, the reinforcing bars can also be divided into three or more groups. When the reinforcing bars are divided into three groups, the first group is numbered 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, and 16; the second group is numbered 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, and 17; and the third group is numbered 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18. The three straightening mechanisms 30 start straightening simultaneously and alternately output the straightened reinforcing bars.
[0080] Specifically, the numbering sequence of the transverse ribs 52 in the non-standard wire mesh is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, when the reinforcing bars are divided into two groups, numbers 1, 3, 5, 7-1, 8-1, 9-1, 10-1, 11-1, 12-1, 13-1, 14, 16, and 18 form an odd-numbered group, while numbers 2, 4, 6, 7-2, 8-2, 9-2, 10-2, 11-2, 12-2, 13-2, 15, and 17 form an even-numbered group. The two straightening mechanisms 30 simultaneously start straightening and alternately output the straightened reinforcing bars. Because the non-standard mesh has windows, the logic control is relatively simple when the reinforcing bars are divided into two groups. It can be understood that, as an alternative implementation, the reinforcing bars can also be divided into three or more groups. Here, 7-1 represents the first segment of the 7th transverse reinforcing bar, and 7-2 represents the second segment of the 7th transverse reinforcing bar.
[0081] In this embodiment, in step S30, at least two straightening mechanisms 30 start straightening simultaneously. There is no need to control the order of start-up; only a certain time difference is required when the straightened rebar is output, effectively simplifying the logic control process.
[0082] like Figure 3As shown, the present invention also provides a rebar straightening system, which includes at least two independently operating straightening mechanisms 30 corresponding to rebars extending in the same direction as the rebar mesh to be produced. The at least two straightening mechanisms 30 are adapted to straighten the rebars to be straightened according to at least two groups of rebars divided into multiple rebars. During straightening, the rebar data in the same direction of the rebar mesh is alternately sent to the corresponding straightening mechanism 30 for straightening. The control process is simple and effectively improves straightening efficiency.
[0083] In this embodiment, each straightening mechanism 30 includes a traction section 31, a straightening section 32, a measuring section 33, and a shearing section 34. The traction section 31 is suitable for traction of the reinforcing bar, the straightening section 32 is suitable for straightening the reinforcing bar, the measuring section 33 is suitable for measuring the length of the reinforcing bar, and the shearing section 34 is suitable for cutting the reinforcing bar. The reinforcing bar completes the straightening process by sequentially passing through the traction section 31, the straightening section 32, the measuring section 33, and the shearing section 34. The components in the straightening mechanism 30 are similar to those in existing straightening equipment and will not be described in detail here.
[0084] Specifically, the distribution of the multiple straightening mechanisms 30 is not limited. To prevent interference between the straightening mechanisms 30, two straightening mechanisms 30 can be distributed in a stepped manner, as shown in the example below. Figure 3 As shown, the straightening mechanisms 30 can also be arranged at the same horizontal intervals, and the distribution method of the straightening mechanisms 30 can be selected according to the requirements.
[0085] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the present invention also provides a steel mesh production line, which includes the above-mentioned steel bar straightening system.
[0086] In this embodiment, the reinforcement system 60 includes a first compartment 61, a second compartment 62, a third compartment 63, a fourth compartment 64, and a guide plate 65. The first compartment 61 and the third compartment 63 are suspended, separate hoppers. The second compartment 62 and the fourth compartment 64 are vertically arranged hoppers that cooperate with the guide plate 65. The first compartment 61 forms a storage hopper and cooperates with the first straightening mechanism 30. The steel bars straightened by the first straightening mechanism 30 first enter the first compartment 61 for storage. The third compartment 63 forms a storage hopper and... In conjunction with the second straightening mechanism 30, the straightened steel bars first enter the third compartment 63 for storage. During the placement of the steel bars, according to the placement sequence, the steel bars in the first compartment 61 can first fall into the second compartment 62 to wait. After the steel bars in the third compartment 63 fall into the fourth compartment 64, the horizontally moving alignment mechanism aligns the steel bars in the second compartment 62 and the fourth compartment 64. Then, by opening the second compartment 62 and the fourth compartment 64 in sequence, the steel bars can fall one by one into the placement line. It is understood that, as an alternative implementation, the steel bars in the first compartment 61 can fall directly into the second compartment 62, and then into the fourth compartment 64 through the second compartment 62. At this time, the alignment mechanism aligns the steel bars and then they fall directly onto the fabric placement line. The steel bars in the third compartment 63 can also fall directly into the fourth compartment 64, be aligned, and then fall directly onto the fabric placement line. The order of fabric placement and the alignment are flexible and varied. They can be aligned in the second compartment 62 and the fourth compartment 64, or they can all be aligned in the fourth compartment 64.
[0087] It should be noted that the storage silo here is the intermediate silo mentioned above.
[0088] In this embodiment, the steel mesh production line also includes a longitudinal reinforcement feeding line 41, which has a longitudinal reinforcement input end, and a steel reinforcement straightening system is provided on one side of the longitudinal reinforcement input end. It is understood that, as an alternative implementation, steel reinforcement straightening systems can also be provided on both sides of the longitudinal reinforcement input end. Specifically, the number of straightening mechanisms 30 in the steel reinforcement straightening system is two or more. It should be noted that... Figure 4 The illustration only shows the case where there are two straightening mechanisms 30 at the input end of the longitudinal rib; no limitation is made here.
[0089] In this embodiment, the rebar mesh production line also includes a transverse rebar laying line 42 that cooperates with the longitudinal rebar laying line 41. The conveying direction of the transverse rebar laying line 42 is angled to the conveying direction of the longitudinal rebar laying line 41. The transverse rebar laying line 42 has a transverse rebar input end, and a straightening mechanism 30 is provided on one side of the transverse rebar input end. After all the longitudinal rebars are laid, the longitudinal rebars change their conveying direction and move onto the transverse rebar laying line 42, completing the laying and fixing process of the transverse rebars. It can be understood that, as an alternative implementation, a rebar straightening system can also be provided on both sides of the transverse rebar input end. Specifically, the number of straightening mechanisms 30 in the rebar straightening system is two or more. It should be noted that... Figure 4 The illustration only shows the case where there are two straightening mechanisms 30 at the input end of the horizontal rib; no limitation is made here.
[0090] In this embodiment, the steel mesh production line also includes a welding mechanism 43, which is disposed on the transverse reinforcement feeding line 42 and is adapted to weld the longitudinal and transverse reinforcements on the transverse reinforcement feeding line 42.
[0091] The following is an example illustrating the specific process of the steel bar processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention:
[0092] Assume there are a first straightening mechanism and a second straightening mechanism. The first straightening mechanism straightens odd-numbered steel bars, and the second straightening mechanism straightens even-numbered steel bars.
[0093] After the first and second straightening mechanisms have completed straightening the current rebar, the first straightening mechanism is set to the straightening completed state, and the first intermediate silo is set to the material-filled state. At the same time, the second straightening mechanism is set to the straightening completed state, and the second intermediate silo is set to the material-filled state. When production starts, it is the turn of the rebar in the first intermediate silo to be unloaded. It is necessary to determine whether the previous rebar straightened by the second straightening mechanism has been unloaded onto the material placement line, and at the same time, it is necessary to determine whether the alignment silo is empty. If both are true, the first intermediate silo opens and unloads the rebar into the alignment silo. After a set time, the alignment silo is set to the material-filled state, and the first intermediate silo is closed. After a set time, the state of the first intermediate silo is set to the unloading completed state, the state of the second intermediate silo is set to the unloading incomplete state, and the state of the first intermediate silo is set to the material-empty state. The first straightening mechanism is set to the straightening incomplete state, and the straightening process of the next rebar can then be started.
[0094] The alignment bin aligns the steel bars in the bin. After alignment, it checks whether the material placement line has reached the designated dropping position. If it has, the alignment bin opens to drop the material. After a set time, the alignment bin closes to drop the material and sets the status of the alignment bin to empty. At this time, the alignment bin is empty.
[0095] After the first straightening mechanism empties the first bin, the second intermediate bin is filled with material, and the steel bars straightened by the second straightening mechanism are in an incomplete placement state. At this point, the second intermediate bin is opened to allow material to fall into the first bin. After a set time, the first bin is set to a filled state, and the second intermediate bin is closed. After another set time, the second intermediate bin is set to a completed falling state. The straightening and placement process then begins. At this point, the steel bars straightened by the second straightening mechanism are in a completed placement state, as are the steel bars straightened by the first straightening mechanism. Simultaneously, the second intermediate bin is set to an empty state, and the second straightening mechanism is set to an incomplete straightening state. This cycle repeats to allow for sequential straightening and placement.
[0096] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0097] 1. Divide the transverse bars 52 or longitudinal bars 51 to be straightened into multiple bar groups. Each bar group is straightened using a corresponding straightening mechanism 30. Multiple straightening mechanisms 30 straighten simultaneously and output the straightened bars in the order of bar numbering. With the straightening time of a single straightening mechanism 30 remaining unchanged, the output cycle of the straightened bars is effectively accelerated, greatly increasing the straightening efficiency. Moreover, the straightening efficiency can be adjusted by changing the number of bar groups and straightening mechanisms 30, improving efficiency while also making the method more versatile.
[0098] 2. Two independent straightening mechanisms 30 are adopted. By splitting the original steel bar data into odd-numbered and even-numbered items, the data is sent to two independent straightening systems. During production, the two straightening systems can start production simultaneously. Through logic control, the straightened steel bars from the two straightening systems fall into the alignment bin in sequence. After alignment, they fall onto the feeding chain in order. The straightening efficiency will be twice that of a single straightening system.
[0099] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
