Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a precise automatic winding calculation method for an uncoiler. Background Technology
[0002] Uncoiling machines are a prerequisite for both the traditional shearing industry and the emerging blanking line industry. Only by uncoiling the steel coils or aluminum coils coming out of the steel mill can subsequent processing stages be carried out.
[0003] The uncoiler process is as follows: a trolley carrying the steel coil delivers the coil to the uncoiler mandrel, and the uncoiler then continues the uncoiling operation. In most cases, the process of the trolley delivering the coil to the uncoiler mandrel is performed by human observation, resulting in low automation and poor accuracy. This invention addresses these problems by developing this algorithm. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the objective of this invention is to propose a precise automatic winding calculation method for an uncoiler.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: a precise automatic winding calculation method for an uncoiler, comprising an uncoiler, a sensor, a steel coil and two support rollers. The uncoiler has a mandrel, the sensor has a sensing line, and the steel coil has a highest point position line, a center point position line and a lowest point position line, with the horizontal center line of the two support rollers as the reference line.
[0006] The distance between the induction line and the baseline is H;
[0007] The distance between the induction line and the line at the highest point is h;
[0008] The radius of the receiving roller is r;
[0009] The center distance between the two receiving rollers is half of a;
[0010] The radius of the steel coil is R;
[0011] The distance between the lowest point line and the baseline is x;
[0012] Equation 1 can be obtained:
[0013] H = h + 2R + x
[0014] Equation 2 is obtained from the right angle theorem:
[0015] (R+r) 2 =a 2 +(R+x) 2
[0016] Solving equation 2 yields equation 3:
[0017] 2Rr+r 2 =a2 +2Rx+x 2
[0018] Equation 4 is obtained by transforming Equation 1:
[0019] x = H - 2R - h
[0020] Substituting the value of x in equation 4 into equation 3, we obtain equation 5:
[0021] 2Rr+r 2 =a 2 +2R(H-2R-h)+(H-2R-h) 2
[0022] Simplifying equation 5 yields equation 6:
[0023]
[0024] By calculating R+x, the relative position of the steel coil and the uncoiler mandrel can be determined, thus enabling accurate feeding of the steel coil.
[0025] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0026] The precise automatic coil loading calculation method of the present invention calculates the current position of the center point of the steel coil by using trigonometric functions based on the unique and known height position of the mandrel of the uncoiler and the distance of the feeding trolley to touch the sensor as it rises. This yields the positional relationship between the steel coil and the mandrel of the uncoiler. By applying this algorithm to the setting program of the automated equipment, accurate automatic loading can be achieved. Attached Figure Description

[0028] Appendix Figure 1 This is a model diagram of the unwinding machine. Detailed Implementation
[0029] To make the technical problems solved by the present invention, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail 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.
[0030] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "straight", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.
[0031] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the present invention discloses a precise automatic coil loading calculation method for an uncoiler, comprising an uncoiler, a sensor, a steel coil, and two support rollers. The uncoiler has a mandrel, the sensor has a sensing line 1, the steel coil has a highest point position line 2, a center point position line 3, and a lowest point position line 4, and the two support rollers are generally mounted on a loading trolley, with the horizontal center line of the two support rollers as the reference line 5; the plane projection point of the center line of the sensor is A, the plane projection point of the center line of any support roller is B, and the plane projection point of the midpoint between the two support rollers is C.
[0032] The distance between induction line 1 and reference line 5 is H; the distance between induction line 1 and the highest point position line 2 is h; the radius of the material receiving roller is r; half of the center distance between the two material receiving rollers is a; the radius of the steel coil is R; and the distance between the lowest point position line 4 and reference line 5 is x.
[0033] The known parameters include: H - sensor height; h - the distance between the highest point of the steel coil and the sensor height; r - the radius of the support roller; a - the center distance between the two support rollers, BC distance.
[0034] Unknown parameters include: R - the radius of the steel coil; x - the height of the lowest point of the steel coil relative to the baseline.
[0035] From the above, we can obtain Equation 1:
[0036] H = h + 2R + x
[0037] In right triangle ABC, equation 2 is obtained by the right angle theorem:
[0038] (R+r) 2 =a 2 +(R+x) 2
[0039] Solve equation 2:
[0040] R 2 +2Rr+r 2 =a 2 +R 2 +2Rx+x 2
[0041] Equation 3 is obtained:
[0042] 2Rr+r 2 =a 2 +2Rx+x 2
[0043] Equation 4 is obtained by transforming Equation 1:
[0044] x = H - 2R - h
[0045] Substituting the value of x in equation 4 into equation 3, we obtain equation 5:
[0046] 2Rr+r 2 =a 2 +2R(H-2R-h)+(H-2R-h) 2
[0047] Equation 5 can be resolved as follows:
[0048] 2Rr+r 2 =a 2 +2RH-4R 2 -2RH+H 2 -2H(2R-h)+(2R-h) 2
[0049] 2Rr+r 2 =a 2 +2RH-4R 2 -2RH+H 2 -4RH+2Hh+4R 2 -4Rh+h 2
[0050] 2Rr+r 2 =a 2 -2RH-6Rh+H 2 +2Hh+h 2
[0051] 2Rr + 2RH + 6Rh = a 2 -r 2 +H 2 +2Hh+h 2
[0052] R(2r+2H+6h)=a 2 -r 2 +H 2 +2Hh+h 2
[0053] Equation 6 is obtained:
[0054]
[0055] Equation 6 contains only one unknown, R, so a unique solution can be obtained. By calculating R+x, the relative position of the steel coil and the uncoiler mandrel can be determined, thus enabling accurate feeding of the steel coil.
[0056] By substituting the above algorithm into the program of the automated coiling equipment, the program can automatically calculate the feeding parameters for coiling and perform automatic coiling operations; for example, using a lifting device to drive the feeding trolley to automatically align with the mandrel of the uncoiler; or controlling the mandrel of the movable uncoiler to automatically align with the center of the steel coil on the feeding trolley.
[0057] Based on the above algorithm, this application provides data tables for Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2:
