Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metallurgical industry technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment and medium for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler. Background Technology

[0002] Hot-rolled strip endless rolling technology is a revolution in steel production technology. It has achieved remarkable results in improving strip yield, dimensional accuracy, the proportion of thin and ultra-thin specifications, and partially replacing cold rolling with hot rolling. The rolling production line used is a continuous casting and rolling production line. In semi-endless or endless rolling, the lower pinch rolls continuously move laterally in the strip inlet and outlet directions, and the lower pinch inlet flaps continuously rise and fall, enabling the strip to be switched to different coilers for coiling.

[0003] During the strip threading process, if the strip cannot enter the coiler in time, it will directly lead to strip piling up, causing the entire production line to stop pressing and the casting machine to stop pouring. Therefore, how to reduce the occurrence of strip piling accidents caused by failure to thread the strip properly when switching coilers is an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present invention is proposed to provide a method, apparatus, equipment and medium for preventing steel stacking in a coiler to overcome or at least partially solve the above problems. The lateral movement state of the lower pinch roll can be determined by acquiring the position of the lower pinch roll and the moving speed of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roll. When the lower pinch roll is in an unstable lateral movement state, the moving speed of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side or the operating side of the lower pinch roll is adjusted to bring the lower pinch roll into a stable lateral movement state, thereby allowing the strip steel to be threaded normally and preventing steel stacking accidents.

[0052] The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0053] This invention provides a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler. It can acquire the position, first lateral movement speed, and second lateral movement speed of the lower pinch roll. The first and second lateral movement speeds are the movement speeds of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and operating side of the lower pinch roll, respectively. By measuring the movement speeds on both sides, the stability of the lower pinch roll's lateral movement can be determined. That is, based on the position, first lateral movement speed, and second lateral movement speed, the lateral movement state of the lower pinch roll can be determined. When the lower pinch roll is in an unstable lateral movement state, the movement speed of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side or operating side of the lower pinch roll is adjusted to bring the lower pinch roll into a stable lateral movement state, thereby allowing the strip steel to be threaded normally and preventing steel pile-up accidents. This method can improve the stability of the lower pinch roll's lateral movement process, prevent the phenomenon of strip steel not being threaded normally due to the lower pinch roll not being in the correct lateral movement position, and thus reduce steel pile-up accidents.

[0054] The above description is merely an overview of the technical solution of the present invention. In order to better understand the technical means of the present invention and to implement it in accordance with the contents of the specification, and in order to make the above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention are described below. Attached Figure Description

[0055] Various other advantages and benefits will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the following detailed description of preferred embodiments. The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the same reference numerals denote the same parts throughout the drawings. In the drawings:

[0057] Figure 2 This is a structural block diagram of a device for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler, provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0058] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0060] Step S110: Obtain the position of the lower pinch roller, the first transverse speed, and the second transverse speed.

[0061] The first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed are the moving speeds of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roll, respectively. These hydraulic cylinders drive the lower pinch roll to move laterally. The drive side is centered on the rolling centerline, and all transmission devices of the rolling mill, flying shear, and various cooling beds and steel drawing machines are located on one side of the rolling mill. This side is called the drive side. The opposite side, centered on the rolling centerline, is called the operating side, mainly for material handling and maintenance operations.

[0062] In this embodiment, hydraulic cylinders are connected to the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roll, respectively. The lower pinch roll is driven to move laterally between the strip inlet and outlet by controlling the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder. Specifically, oil pressure is established in the hydraulic cylinder to push the piston rod to extend, that is, the pressure energy in the hydraulic cylinder is converted into mechanical energy to drive the piston rod. When the piston rods on both sides extend, they will push the corresponding hydraulic cylinders to move in the first direction, thereby driving the lower pinch roll to move laterally in the first direction. When the oil pressure in the hydraulic cylinder is reduced, the piston rod will retract, thereby pulling the hydraulic cylinder back in the opposite direction of the first direction (the second direction), and driving the lower pinch roll to move laterally in the second direction. During the lateral movement, foreign objects such as iron oxide scale may exist on the piston rod, which can easily cause the moving speed of the hydraulic cylinders on both sides of the lower pinch roll to be inconsistent. This can cause jamming during the lateral movement of the lower pinch roll, which in turn causes abnormal operation of the lower pinch inlet guide plate, making it impossible to thread the strip when switching to the coiler, and ultimately causing the coiler to experience a steel stacking failure.

[0063] Therefore, in this embodiment, it is necessary to obtain the position of the lower pinch roller during the lateral movement, as well as the moving speeds of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roller, namely the first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed. The lateral movement speeds on both sides of the lower pinch roller can be determined by the moving speeds of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roller.

[0064] In this embodiment, the position of the lower pinch roller can be detected by a position sensor. Alternatively, the position of the hydraulic cylinder can be detected by installing a magnetic scale inside the hydraulic cylinder, and then the position of the lower pinch roller can be determined based on the position of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0065] Specifically, based on the values ​​on the magnetic scale on the drive side of the lower pinch roller, the first distance the hydraulic cylinder on the drive side of the lower pinch roller can be determined. The position of the hydraulic cylinder on the drive side of the lower pinch roller can be obtained based on the first distance. Similarly, based on the values ​​on the magnetic scale on the operating side of the lower pinch roller, the second distance the hydraulic cylinder on the operating side of the lower pinch roller can be determined. The position of the hydraulic cylinder on the operating side of the lower pinch roller can be obtained based on the second distance. The average distance between the first distance and the second distance is calculated, and this average distance is taken as the lateral movement distance of the lower pinch roller. The position of the lower pinch roller can be determined based on the lateral movement distance.

[0066] In this embodiment, the first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed can be determined based on the first distance and the second distance, as well as the time taken for the hydraulic cylinder to move. For example, the first lateral movement speed is the ratio of the first distance to the time taken for the hydraulic cylinder to move, and the second lateral movement speed is the ratio of the second distance to the time taken for the hydraulic cylinder to move.

[0067] Optionally, before obtaining the position of the lower pinch roller, the first traverse speed, and the second traverse speed, the method further includes:

[0068] The operating modes of the continuous casting and rolling production line are obtained, including at least single-block operating mode, semi-headless operating mode and headless operating mode; when the operating mode is semi-headless operating mode or headless operating mode, the position of the lower pinch roll, the first transverse speed and the second transverse speed are obtained.

[0069] In this embodiment, when the operating mode is single-strip operation, the lower pinch roll does not perform lateral movement. In single-strip operation mode, the interval between continuously rolling two strips is relatively long, providing sufficient time for switching coilers. Therefore, lateral movement of the lower pinch roll is not necessary for rapid coiler switching. The lower pinch roll only performs lateral movement when the operating mode is semi-headless or headless.

[0070] For example, when the rolling mode information indication Mode from the rolling mode control system is 0, it indicates that the continuous casting and rolling production line is operating in single-block mode, meaning the production line selects single-block rolling. When Mode is 1, it indicates that the production line selects semi-endless rolling or endless rolling.

[0071] Step S120: Determine the lateral movement state of the lower pinch roller based on the position, the first lateral movement speed, and the second lateral movement speed.

[0072] The lateral movement states include stable lateral movement states and unstable lateral movement states.

[0073] In this embodiment, when the lower pinch roll is in a stable lateral movement state, it means that the lower pinch roll can move smoothly during its lateral movement, and the strip can be threaded normally; when the lower pinch roll is in an unstable lateral movement state, it means that the lower pinch roll cannot move smoothly during its lateral movement, and the strip may not be able to enter the coiler in time, thus leading to a steel stacking accident.

[0074] Optionally, step S120 includes:

[0075] Step 1: When the position is between the starting position and the ending position in the lateral movement path, determine the speed difference between the first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed.

[0076] In this embodiment, the path of the lower pinch roll moving laterally between the strip inlet and outlet is taken as the lateral movement path. The position at which the lateral movement begins at the strip inlet is taken as the starting position of the lateral movement path. When the lower pinch roll moves laterally to the designated position at the outlet, the lateral movement will stop, and the designated position will be taken as the ending position of the lateral movement path.

[0077] The second step is to determine the lateral movement state of the lower pinch roller based on the speed difference.

[0078] In this embodiment, when the position of the lower pinch roller is between the starting position and the ending position in the lateral movement path, it indicates that the lower pinch roller is in the process of lateral movement. Based on the speed difference between the first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed, it can be determined whether the hydraulic cylinder can smoothly drive the lower pinch roller to move laterally.

[0079] Optional, the second step includes:

[0080] When the speed difference is equal to 0, the lower pinch roll is judged to be in a stable lateral movement state; when the speed difference is not equal to 0, the lower pinch roll is judged to be in an unstable lateral movement state.

[0081] In this embodiment, when the speed difference is 0, it indicates that the lateral movement speeds of the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roller are consistent, meaning that the lower pinch roller does not experience jamming during lateral movement, and the hydraulic cylinder can smoothly drive the lower pinch roller to move laterally. When the speed difference is not 0, it indicates that the lateral movement speeds of the drive side and the operating side of the lower pinch roller are inconsistent, meaning that the lower pinch roller may experience jamming during lateral movement, and the hydraulic cylinder cannot smoothly drive the lower pinch roller to move laterally.

[0082] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0083] When the position is at the starting or ending position, the hydraulic cylinder stops working.

[0084] In this embodiment, when the lower pinch roller is at the starting or ending position, it indicates that the lower pinch roller has not yet started or has completed its lateral movement. At this time, it is necessary to control the hydraulic cylinder to stop working, and the proportional valve to lock and stop outputting, so that the hydraulic cylinder's moving speed is reduced to 0, avoiding damage to the hydraulic cylinder, piston rod, or lower pinch roller. Simultaneously, since the hydraulic cylinder has stopped working, it indicates that the hydraulic cylinder is in a stationary state, and the lower pinch roller is also in a stationary state. Both the first and second lateral movement speeds are 0, meaning that when the position is at the starting or ending position, it is not necessary to adjust the first or second lateral movement speed. The proportional valve controls the oil inlet and outlet flow in the hydraulic cylinder's piston and rod sides, thereby controlling the extension and retraction of the piston rod within the hydraulic cylinder, achieving the lateral movement of the lower pinch roller.

[0085] Step S130: When the lower pinch roll is in an unstable lateral movement state, adjust the first lateral movement speed or the second lateral movement speed until the lower pinch roll is in a stable lateral movement state so that the strip can be threaded normally.

[0086] Optionally, step S130 includes:

[0087] The first step is to determine the slower of the first and second transverse speeds when the pinch roller is in an unstable transverse state as the third transverse speed.

[0088] The second step is to gradually increase the third transverse speed until the lower pinch roller is in a stable transverse state.

[0089] In this embodiment, when the lower pinch roller is in an unstable lateral movement state, the movement speed of the slower hydraulic cylinder is adjusted so that the movement speeds of the two hydraulic cylinders are consistent, thereby allowing the lower pinch roller to be in a stable lateral movement state.

[0090] Optional, the second step includes:

[0091] When the speed difference is greater than the difference threshold, the third lateral speed is gradually increased by the first speed change amount; when the speed difference is greater than the second speed change amount and less than or equal to the difference threshold, the third lateral speed is gradually increased by the second speed change amount; when the speed difference is less than the second speed change amount and greater than 0, the third lateral speed is increased by the speed difference amount as the third speed change amount, so that the speed difference is reduced to 0.

[0092] In this embodiment, when the speed difference V is greater than the difference threshold V 阈 If the first lateral velocity V1 and the second lateral velocity V2 have a large speed deviation, then the third lateral velocity V3 can be gradually increased according to the set time interval by the first speed change ΔV1. ’ =V3 + ΔV1*n, where n represents the number of increments, V3 ’This represents the third lateral movement speed after the increase. The value of V3 is updated each time it is increased, i.e., using V3... ’ The value of V3 is updated, and the speed difference V is recalculated. If the recalculated speed difference V is still greater than the difference threshold V, the value is updated. 阈 If V1 increases by V3, then V3 continues to increase by ΔV1; when the recalculated velocity difference V decreases to V... 阈 When the change in velocity is greater than the second velocity change ΔV2, the third lateral velocity, V3, is gradually increased by ΔV2 at set intervals. ’ =V3 + ΔV2*n, until V = 0 after the increase, or 0 < V < ΔV2. When 0 < V < ΔV2, then V3 will be added as the speed increase, i.e., V3 ’ =V3+V, thus making the recalculated V=0 after the increase. The set time interval can be the scan cycle of the program executing the method in this application, or it can be set according to actual circumstances.

[0093] It should be noted that the first speed change is less than the difference threshold and greater than the second speed change, and the second speed change is greater than 0. When the speed deviation between the first and second lateral movement speeds is large, the third lateral movement speed is adjusted by a larger change in the first speed; when the speed deviation is small, the third lateral movement speed is adjusted by a smaller change in the second speed; when the speed difference is adjusted to be less than the second speed change, the smaller speed difference needs to be used as the change to increase the third lateral movement speed, to avoid increasing the third lateral movement speed too much and causing a negative deviation, that is, the originally slower lateral movement speed becomes the faster of the two lateral movement speeds, resulting in a continued deviation between them. Therefore, the above method not only makes the speed adjustment more precise, but also ensures that the lateral movement state of the lower pinch roller can gradually stabilize.

[0094] It should be noted that V 阈 ΔV1 and ΔV2 can be set according to the actual working conditions of the production site, and this application does not limit them.

[0095] For example, V can be 阈Let ΔV1 be 0.15 mm / s and ΔV2 be 0.1 mm / s. When the lateral speed on the operating side is 12.25 mm / s and the lateral speed on the drive side is 12.48 mm / s, the calculated speed difference is 0.23 mm / s. Since this speed difference is greater than 0.2 mm / s, the lateral speed on the operating side is increased by 0.15 mm / s. After this increase, the lateral speed on the operating side becomes 12.40 mm / s, and the speed difference decreases to 0.08 mm / s. At this point, the reduced speed difference is greater than 0 and less than 0.15 mm / s. Therefore, the lateral speed on the operating side is increased by another 0.08 mm / s, bringing it to 12.48 mm / s, which is consistent with the lateral speed on the drive side. This means the speed difference is reduced to 0, allowing the lower pinch roller to enter a stable lateral movement state.

[0096] For example, when the obtained lateral movement speed on the operating side is 12.58 mm / s and the lateral movement speed on the drive side is 12.43 mm / s, the calculated speed difference is 0.15 mm / s. Since this speed difference is less than 0.2 mm / s, the lateral movement speed on the drive side is increased by 0.1 mm / s. After this increase, the lateral movement speed on the drive side becomes 12.53 mm / s, and the speed difference decreases to 0.05 mm / s. Since this reduced speed difference is greater than 0 and less than 0.15 mm / s, the lateral movement speed on the drive side is increased by another 0.05 mm / s, resulting in a lateral movement speed of 12.58 mm / s, which matches the lateral movement speed on the operating side. This means the speed difference is reduced to 0, allowing the lower pinch roller to enter a stable lateral movement state.

[0097] For example, when the lateral movement speeds of the operating side and the transmission side are both 12.43 mm / s, the lateral movement speed deviation of the lower pinch roller is 0, so no adjustment is needed. Continue to control the lateral movement of the lower pinch roller until it reaches the desired position.

[0098] Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of the present invention also provide a device for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler. Figure 2 This is a structural block diagram of a device for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler, provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the device 200 includes an acquisition module 210, a determination module 220, and an adjustment module 230.

[0099] The acquisition module 210 is used to acquire the position of the lower pinch roller, the first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed. The first lateral movement speed and the second lateral movement speed are the moving speeds of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and the operation side of the lower pinch roller, respectively. The hydraulic cylinders are used to drive the lower pinch roller to move laterally.

[0100] The determining module 220 is used to determine the lateral movement state of the lower pinch roller based on the position, the first lateral movement speed, and the second lateral movement speed. The lateral movement state includes a stable lateral movement state and an unstable lateral movement state.

[0101] The adjustment module 230 is used to adjust the first or second transverse speed when the lower pinch roll is in an unstable transverse state, until the lower pinch roll is in a stable transverse state, so that the strip can be threaded normally.

[0114] When the speed difference is less than the second speed change and greater than 0, the third lateral speed is increased by using the speed difference as the third speed change, so that the speed difference is reduced to 0.

[0115] Among them, the change in the first velocity is less than the difference threshold and greater than the change in the second velocity, and the change in the second velocity is greater than 0.

[0128] The technical solutions described in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0129] This invention provides a method, apparatus, equipment, and medium for preventing steel pile-up in a coiler. It can acquire the position, first lateral movement speed, and second lateral movement speed of the lower pinch roll. The first and second lateral movement speeds are the movement speeds of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side and operating side of the lower pinch roll, respectively. By measuring the movement speeds on both sides, the stability of the lower pinch roll's lateral movement can be determined. That is, based on the position, first lateral movement speed, and second lateral movement speed, the lateral movement state of the lower pinch roll can be determined. When the lower pinch roll is in an unstable lateral movement state, the movement speed of the hydraulic cylinders on the drive side or operating side of the lower pinch roll is adjusted to bring the lower pinch roll into a stable lateral movement state, thereby allowing the strip steel to be threaded normally and preventing steel pile-up accidents. This method can improve the stability of the lower pinch roll's lateral movement process, preventing the phenomenon of strip steel not being threaded normally due to the lower pinch roll not being in the correct lateral movement position, thus avoiding steel pile-up accidents.
