[0031] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, the exemplary embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0032] The inventors discovered that during the production of bars and wire rods, the furnace's billet tracking system tracks the billet in real time after it enters the heating furnace. Over time, this tracking error can occur, leading to billet data misalignment. Manual calibration is often required after these errors occur, which is labor-intensive and has high calibration lag. To address this technical shortcoming, the inventors combined billet weight data from the furnace and length measurement data from the shearing system at the furnace's end to propose a billet tracking calibration system for the heating furnace. This system automatically detects billet tracking misalignment, calculates the displacement of the misalignment, and automatically corrects billet tracking misalignment within the furnace. This improves billet tracking accuracy and provides a technical means for achieving automatic calibration after billet tracking misalignment.

[0033] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a processing flow chart of the heating furnace billet tracking calibration method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the billet tracking calibration method for a heating furnace in an embodiment of the present invention may include:

[0034] Step 101: During the billet heating process, the billet tracking system of the heating furnace is used to obtain: the weight data of a first number of billets before the furnace and the length measurement data of a second number of billets after the furnace, wherein the first number is greater than the second number;

[0035] Step 102: establishing a first comparison sequence based on the furnace weight data of the first number of steel billets, wherein the first comparison sequence represents a comparison relationship between the furnace weights of every two adjacent steel billets within the first number range;

[0036] Step 103: establishing a second comparison sequence based on the length measurement data of the second number of steel billets after furnace shearing, wherein the second comparison sequence represents the comparison relationship between the length measurements of each two adjacent steel billets after furnace shearing within the second number range;

[0037] Step 104: Establish a possibility sequence based on the first comparison sequence, the second comparison sequence, and the correlation between the furnace weight of the steel billet and the length measured by the multiple-length shear, wherein the possibility sequence represents multiple possibilities of the second number of steel billets having erroneous displacement within the first number range;

[0038] Step 105: Obtain the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence, and determine the dislocation displacement values ​​of the second number of steel billets according to the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence;

[0039] Step 106: Calibrate and adjust the billet tracking system of the heating furnace according to the displacement values ​​of the second number of billets.

[0040] It should be noted that the billet tracking software for heating furnaces typically only experiences errors in rare circumstances. These errors typically manifest as the tracking software displaying n billets or fewer billets than the actual production data at a given moment. This error can cause the actual billets to not match the data displayed in the tracking software when they emerge from the furnace, resulting in a displacement of n billets. While the frequency of errors in heating furnace tracking is low, once an error occurs, all subsequent billets will be displaced by n billets compared to the data displayed in the tracking software, creating a misalignment in the tracking of the billets.

[0041] In order to better analyze the phenomenon of data dislocation caused by billet tracking in the heating furnace, it is usually possible to set: if the actual billet sequence in production [g0, g1, g2, g3, g4…g t ], corresponding to the billet data sequence [G0, G1, G2, G3, G4…G t ], the billet tracking in the heating furnace is correct, and there is no data misalignment. The data misalignment displacement X = 0; if the actual billet sequence [g0, g1, g2, g3, g4…g t ], corresponding to the billet data sequence [G1, G2, G3, G4…G t+1 ], that is, the actual billet out of the furnace at this time corresponds to the data of a future billet, and the data displacement at this time is recorded as X=1; if the actual billet sequence [g1, g2, g3, g4…g t+1 ] corresponds to the billet data sequence [G0, G1, G2, G3, G4…G t ], that is, the billet actually discharged at this time corresponds to the data of the previous billet, and the data misalignment displacement at this time is recorded as X=-1.

[0042] The specific execution steps of the heating furnace billet tracking calibration method according to the embodiment of the present invention are described below:

[0043] First, step 101 is executed. During the billet heating process, the billet tracking system of the heating furnace can obtain: the weight data before the furnace of a first number of billets and the length measurement data of the second number of billets after the furnace, wherein the first number is greater than the second number.

[0044] It should be noted that during normal production, the rolling of steel billets on the rolling line is relatively stable, and there is a correlation between the weight of the steel billets in front of the furnace and the length measured by the shearing method after the furnace. That is, when several adjacent steel billets are produced, the roll gap of the rolling mill on site changes slightly and the rolling is relatively stable, which will lead to steel billets with heavier weight when weighed in front of the furnace, and their corresponding length measured by the shearing method after the furnace will be longer.

[0045] In addition, since the furnace weight data is the initial data before the billet enters the heating furnace, it can be assumed that the billet tracking software of the heating furnace has not yet made any errors, that is, the furnace weight data collected by the heating furnace billet tracking system is true and accurate data; while the post-furnace shear length measurement data is the processed data after the billet has been heated in the heating furnace. At this time, the heating furnace billet tracking misalignment may have occurred, that is, the post-furnace shear length measurement data collected by the heating furnace billet tracking system may have been misaligned. Since the misalignment displacement of the billet cannot be accurately known at this time, based on the correlation between the furnace weight of the billet and the post-furnace shear length measurement of the billet, it is possible to collect more furnace weight data of the billet relative to the number of post-furnace shear length measurement data collected, combined with the actual situation of the heating furnace billet tracking system. Therefore, the first number is greater than the second number.

[0046] In one embodiment, before obtaining the furnace weight data of the first number of steel billets and the furnace shear length measurement data of the second number of steel billets collected by the heating furnace steel billet tracking system, the following steps may be further included:

[0047] Preset the value of the second quantity; preset the value range of the misalignment displacement, wherein the value range of the misalignment displacement is set according to the actual situation of the heating furnace billet tracking system; determine the value range of the first quantity based on the value of the second quantity and the value range of the misalignment displacement.

[0048] For example, assume that n+2m billet weight data constitute the billet weight sequence:

[0049] M=[m1, m2, m3…m n …m n+2m ]

[0050] n multiple-scale shearing length measurement data constitute a multiple-scale shearing length measurement sequence:

[0051] L=[l1, l2, l3…l n ]

[0052] Here n+2m is the first quantity, n is the second quantity, m is the range of the offset displacement, m and n are positive integers. Since the direction of the offset displacement of the steel billet is uncertain, in order to accurately calculate the offset displacement, m more steel billet furnace weight data can be collected to the left and right based on the second quantity.

[0053] Next, step 102 and step 103 are executed. A first comparison sequence can be established based on the furnace weight data of the first number of steel billets, wherein the first comparison sequence represents the furnace weight comparison relationship between every two adjacent steel billets within the first quantity range; and a second comparison sequence can be established based on the furnace shearing length measurement data of the second number of steel billets, wherein the second comparison sequence represents the furnace weight comparison relationship between every two adjacent steel billets within the second quantity range.

[0054] In one embodiment, the first comparison sequence is expressed as follows:

[0055]

[0056] Among them, C m is the first comparison sequence, and Where i=1,2…n+2m, n+2m is the first number, n is the second number, m is the range of the displacement, m and n are positive integers; m i 、m i+1 、…m n+2m-1 、m n+2m , n+2m billet weight data form a billet weight sequence;

[0057] The second comparison sequence is expressed as follows:

[0058]

[0059] Among them, C l is the second comparison sequence, and Where i = 1, 2…n, n is the second number, n is a positive integer; l i-1 、l i 、…l n-1 、l n It is a multiple-scale shearing length measurement sequence consisting of n multiple-scale shearing length measurement data.

[0060] Regarding the comparison relationship in the above formula, for example, a>b? 1:0 means: if a>b, then the value is 1, otherwise it is 0; therefore, the first comparison sequence and the second comparison sequence contain multiple sequences consisting of 1s and 0s.

[0061] In specific implementation, the relationship between the weight of the adjacent two billets also conforms to the correlation mechanism between the billet weight and the length measured by the multiple shears. Therefore, the weight of the latter billet is compared with the weight of the previous billet, and the weight sequence C of the billet before the furnace is formed. m :

[0062]

[0063] Compare the length of the last billet measured by shearing with the length of the previous billet measured by shearing, and form a sequence C l :

[0064]

[0065] Then, step 104 is executed to establish a possibility sequence based on the first comparison sequence, the second comparison sequence, and the correlation between the furnace weight of the steel billet and the length measured by the multiple shear, wherein the possibility sequence represents multiple possibilities that the second number of steel billets within the first number range will have erroneous displacement.

[0066] Figure 2 Flowchart of the method for establishing a possibility sequence in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, based on the first comparison sequence, the second comparison sequence, and the correlation between the furnace weight of the steel billet and the length measured by the multiple shearing, a possibility sequence is established, which may include:

[0067] Step 201: Perform a sliding comparison between the second comparison sequence and the first comparison sequence from left to right within the first comparison sequence to obtain a plurality of sliding comparison results.

[0068] Step 202: Calculate multiple possibilities of erroneous displacement of a second number of steel billets within a first number range based on the multiple sliding comparison results and the correlation between the furnace weight of the steel billets and the length measured by the multiple shears;

[0069] Step 203: Establish a possibility sequence based on the multiple possibilities.

[0070] In one embodiment, multiple possibilities of a second number of steel billets having erroneous displacement within a first number range are calculated based on multiple sliding comparison results and a correlation between the furnace weight of the steel billets and the length measured by the multiple-length shear according to the following formula:

[0071]

[0072] Among them, p j C is the possibility that the second number of billets will have erroneous displacement within the first number range, m is the first comparison sequence, C lis the second comparison sequence, k is the variable of the sum function Σ, k is an integer and j≤k≤j+n, n is the second quantity, m is the value range of the misalignment displacement, and m and n are positive integers.

[0073] In specific implementation, due to the positive correlation between the furnace weight of the steel billet and the length measured by the multiple-length shear, it can be seen from the above description of the comparison sequence that if no displacement or misalignment occurs, the first comparison sequence and the second comparison sequence of the same length should also be the same (the distribution of 1 and 0 is the same).

[0074] Since the second number is included in the first number range, the corresponding second comparison sequence is also included in the first comparison sequence. Within the first comparison sequence range, the second comparison sequence is compared with the first comparison sequence in a sliding manner from left to right. This can be understood as determining, within the first comparison sequence range, whether an error displacement may occur at each position.

[0075] The probability sequence P established by the above method can be shown as follows:

[0076] P=[p1,p2,…p j …,p 2m+1 ]

[0077] After establishing the possibility sequence, executing step 105, obtaining the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence, and determining the misalignment displacement values ​​of the second number of steel billets according to the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence;

[0078] In one embodiment, the method includes obtaining the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence according to the following formula, and determining the misalignment displacement values ​​of the second number of steel billets according to the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence:

[0079] X=P.index(max(P))-m-1

[0080] Wherein, X is the displacement value of the second number of steel billets, P.index(max(P)) is the subscript index value of the maximum value in the possibility sequence, m is the value range of the displacement, and m is a positive integer.

[0081] In specific implementation, the idea of ​​the voting method can also be used to further improve the accuracy of calculating the misalignment displacement. Multiple sets of billet weight data before the furnace and billet length measurement data after the furnace are collected by the billet tracking system of the heating furnace are obtained, where the second number of each set of data is different (the corresponding first number is also different), and multiple misalignment displacement values ​​are calculated using the above method. Generally, the second number n can be set according to the error frequency of the billet tracking of the heating furnace on site. If the error frequency is not high, for example, the second number n can be set to 10, 20, and 40 respectively, and the corresponding misalignment displacements x1, x2, and x3 are calculated respectively. The specific steps for determining the misalignment displacement X according to the voting method are as follows:

[0082] 1) If x1=x2=x3, then X=x1;

[0083] 2) If x1≠x2, x2=x3, then X=x2;

[0084] 3) If x1=x2, x2≠x3, then X=x1;

[0085] 4) If x1≠x2, x1=x3, then X=x1;

[0086] 5) If any other situation occurs, X is equal to the result of the last calculation, and the default initial value of X is 0.

[0087] In step (3), the specific contents may include: selecting three groups of steel billet weight data and multiple-length shear length measurement data of different lengths, calculating the misalignment displacement of each group of data according to the aforementioned method steps, obtaining the misalignment displacement sequence [x1, x2, x3] corresponding to the data of different lengths, and then voting to obtain the final heating furnace steel billet tracking misalignment displacement X.

[0088] Finally, step 106 is executed to calibrate and adjust the billet tracking system of the heating furnace according to the displacement values ​​of the second number of billets. In specific implementation, the steps of calibrating and adjusting the billet tracking system of the heating furnace can be as follows:

[0089] (1) If X = 0, the billet tracking in the heating furnace is correct and no adjustment is required;

[0090] (2) If X>0, it means that the actual billet currently discharged matches the future billet data, so |X| empty billet data are added to the outlet side of the heating furnace.

[0091] (3) If X<0, it means that the actual billet currently discharged matches the past billet data, so the data of the last |X| billets on the outlet side of the heating furnace are deleted.

[0092] The present invention also provides a billet tracking and calibration device for a heating furnace, as described in the following embodiments. Since the principles of the device are similar to those of the billet tracking and calibration method for a heating furnace, the implementation of the device can be referenced to the implementation of the billet tracking and calibration method for a heating furnace, and any repetitions will not be repeated.
