DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] In order to make the skilled in the art understand the present application, the specific embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings.
[0037] Referring to Figures 1-5 A steel belt flattening bridge guiding device, comprising a bridge A section 1, a bridge B section 6 and a bridge C section 4, wherein: the bridge A section 1 and the bridge C section 4 have the same structure, and the bridge A section 1 and the bridge C section 4 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bridge B section 6; the bridge A section 1 and the bridge C section 4 have arc surface structures; the bridge B section 6 is composed of inclined surface structures on both sides and a flat surface structure in the middle; the arc surface structures of the bridge A section 1 and the bridge C section 4 are connected with the inclined surface structures on both sides of the bridge B section 6, respectively. The included angle between the inclined surface structures and the flat surface structure of the bridge B section 6 is obtuse.
[0038] A narrow column 3 is installed on the flat surface structure of the bridge B section, and the narrow column 3 is composed of two vertical columns with a distance greater than the width of the steel belt 2. After the steel belt 2 is flattened by the straightening machine, it slides down along the bridge A section 1. Since the straightening machine is always in working state during this process, the steel belt 2 will further climb forward at this time. The steel belt 2 will naturally sag when it reaches the bridge B section 6, and then reaches the narrow column 3. This device can limit the activity range of the steel belt 2, so that the steel belt 2 always moves within the range that can be detected by the photoelectric sensing device.
[0039] A baffle 5 for limiting height is installed above the overpass C section 4. A transition guide plate 12 is arranged at the joint between the curved surface structure of the overpass C section 4 and the inclined surface structure of the overpass B section 6. A rib 13 is arranged in the middle of the overpass B section 6, which reduces the contact area between the steel belt 2 and the overpass B section 6, thereby reducing the resistance of the steel belt 2 when climbing the B section. When the steel belt 2 enters the overpass C section 4, the transition guide plate 12 makes the steel belt 2 climb upward, and the steel belt 2 will be raised upward in the overpass C section 4. During this process, the baffle 5 presses the steel belt 2 down to make it smoothly enter the punch 16.
[0040] The present application provides a plurality of pairs of light-sensing sensors, which can detect whether the speed of the steel belt 2 entering the punch 16 is appropriate. If not, the production rhythm can be changed to make the feeding speed area stable. Specifically, the inclined surface structures on both sides of the overpass B section 6 are provided with strip-shaped holes 14 along the transmission direction of the steel belt 2.
[0041] A first pair of light-sensing sensors 7 is installed below the inclined surface structures on both sides of the overpass B section 6.

A third pair of light-sensing sensors 9 is installed below the curved surface structure of the overpass A section 1 and below the curved surface structure of the overpass C section. The two third pairs of light-sensing sensors 9 have the same installation height. Each of the two third pairs of light-sensing sensors 9 has a transmitting end and a receiving end. The light emitted by the transmitting end penetrates through the strip-shaped hole 14 to reach the receiving end.
[0044] In terms of height setting, the distance between the first pair of light-sensing sensors 7 and the highest point of the curved surface structure of the overpass A section 1 is about 50 cm. The distance between the second pair of light-sensing sensors 8 and the highest point of the curved surface structure of the overpass A section 1 is about 30 cm. The distance between the third pair of light-sensing sensors 9 and the highest point of the curved surface structure of the overpass A section 1 is about 15 cm.
[0045] If the signal emitted by the transmitting end of the light-sensing sensor is blocked by the steel belt, the receiving end cannot receive the signal. If it is not blocked, the receiving end can receive the signal. In this way, the sagging degree of the steel belt in the overpass B section can be determined.
