[0007] Direct delivery roller conveyor;

[0008] A lifting assembly, wherein the lifting assembly and the direct conveyor roller conveyor are spaced apart;

[0009] A steel pusher is movably mounted on the direct conveyor roller table and is used to push the red billet on the direct conveyor roller table onto the lifting assembly.

[0010] A position sensor is disposed on the lifting assembly, and the position sensor is used to detect the position information of the red blank on the lifting assembly;

[0011] The controller is electrically connected to both the position sensor and the lifting assembly. The controller is used to control the lifting assembly to operate after receiving the position signal from the position sensor.

[0021] The pusher pushes the red billet on the direct conveyor roller table onto the lifting assembly, and then returns to the direct conveyor roller table to continue pushing the red billet.

[0022] When the red blank on the lifting assembly reaches the position of the position sensor, the position sensor is triggered and sends a position signal to the controller;

[0023] After receiving the position signal from the position sensor, the controller controls the lifting assembly to descend, transporting the red billet on the lifting assembly to the heat preservation cover for heat preservation.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the bar direct feeding billet heat preservation device and its usage method according to embodiments of the present invention include, for example:

[0025] The bar billet direct feeding and insulation device includes a direct feeding roller conveyor, a lifting assembly, a pusher, a position sensor, and a controller. The lifting assembly and the direct feeding roller conveyor are spaced apart. The pusher is movably mounted on the direct feeding roller conveyor and is used to push the red billet on the direct feeding roller conveyor onto the lifting assembly. The position sensor is mounted on the lifting assembly and is used to detect the position information of the red billet on the lifting assembly. The controller is electrically connected to both the position sensor and the lifting assembly and is used to control the lifting assembly to operate after receiving the position signal from the position sensor. In use, after the red billet arrives on the direct feeding roller conveyor, the pusher pushes the red billet onto the lifting assembly for temporary storage, and then returns to the direct feeding roller conveyor to continue pushing red billets. When there are enough red billets on the lifting assembly, the position sensor is triggered when a red billet reaches its position, causing the position sensor to send a position signal to the controller, which then controls the lifting assembly to operate. Before entering the insulation hood, the red billet is temporarily stored on the lifting assembly and is not placed directly on the roller conveyor entering the insulation hood.

This method of using the bar billet direct-feeding insulation device can prevent damage and deformation of the roller conveyor after contact with the red billet, thereby reducing the probability of safety hazards and improving the lifespan of the device.

[0035] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0036] Currently, the billets required for steel production are generally supplied by direct roller conveyor transportation. Due to the high speed of direct transportation, there is a surplus of billets transported from the steelmaking plant. In order to save costs, the surplus billets are collected in an insulation hood for insulation treatment before being transported to the production line for manufacturing.

[0037] Existing bar insulation devices suffer from severe roller deformation and low safety.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides a bar direct feeding billet heat preservation device 100, which can effectively improve the technical problems mentioned above, avoid damage and deformation of the roller conveyor, reduce the probability of safety hazards, and improve the service life of the device.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 The bar billet direct feeding and insulation device 100 includes a direct feeding roller conveyor 10, a lifting assembly 30, a pusher 20, a position sensor 40, and a controller. The lifting assembly 30 and the direct feeding roller conveyor 10 are spaced apart. The pusher 20 is movably mounted on the direct feeding roller conveyor 10 and is used to push the red billet 101 on the direct feeding roller conveyor 10 onto the lifting assembly 30. The position sensor 40 is mounted on the lifting assembly 30 and is used to detect the position information of the red billet 101 on the lifting assembly 30. The controller is electrically connected to both the position sensor 40 and the lifting assembly 30 and is used to control the lifting assembly 30 to work after receiving the position signal from the position sensor 40.

[0040] In this embodiment, the lifting assembly 30 includes a power component 31 and an upper support 32. The upper support 32 is connected to the power component 31 and is used to support the red blank 101. The power component 31 is electrically connected to the controller, and the controller controls the power component 31 to drive the upper support 32 to perform lifting and lowering movements.

[0041] Specifically, the power component 31 is a hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder operates under the control of the controller, driving the upper support 32 to move up and down.

[0042] In this embodiment, the position sensor 40 is located at the end of the upper support 32 away from the direct conveyor roller 10. The upper support 32 carries multiple red billets 101. When the number of red billets 101 on the upper support 32 reaches a preset position, the position sensor 40 will be triggered. The position sensor 40 will send a position signal to the controller. At this time, the controller controls the hydraulic cylinder to drive the upper support 32 down, transporting all the red billets 101 on the upper support 32 into the heat preservation cover 50 for heat preservation.

[0043] In this embodiment, the number of red blanks 101 stored on the upper support 32 is seven. In other embodiments, the number of red blanks 101 stored on the upper support 32 may be increased or decreased, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0044] Furthermore, the lifting assembly 30 also includes a bottom support 33, which is connected to the power unit 31.

[0045] It should be noted that the bar billet direct feeding insulation device 100 also includes an insulation cover 50, which is located above the lifting assembly 30. The lifting assembly 30 is used to transport the red billet 101 to the insulation cover 50. The insulation cover 50 can keep the red billet 101 stored inside warm.

[0046] It should also be noted that the insulation cover 50 is equipped with a conveyor roller 60 and a drive unit 70. The drive unit 70 is connected to the conveyor roller 60 to drive the conveyor roller 60 to rotate. The conveyor roller 60 is located below the lifting assembly 30, which is used to transport the red billet 101 onto the conveyor roller 60. The upper support 32, driven by the power unit 31, descends to a position flush with the conveyor roller 60, thereby transporting the red billet 101 onto the conveyor roller 60, allowing it to enter the insulation cover 50 for insulation. Because the conveyor roller 60 is constantly rotating under the drive of the drive unit 70, and the conveyor roller 60 does not directly contact the red billet 101, the phenomenon of localized overheating that could cause damage, deformation, or even breakage due to contact with the red billet 101 can be avoided, ensuring safety.

[0047] It should also be noted that there are multiple conveyor rollers 60. The upper support 32 and multiple conveyor rollers 60 are arranged adjacent to each other in sequence. When the upper support 32 descends to a position flush with the conveyor rollers 60, the red blank 101 will automatically fall onto the conveyor rollers 60.

[0048] In this embodiment, the driving component 70 is a conveyor roller motor.

[0049] Specifically, the position sensor 40 is an infrared sensor. When there are seven red billets 101 on the upper support 32, the red billet 101 furthest from the direct conveyor roller 10 will block the position sensor 40, thereby triggering the position sensor 40.

[0050] Furthermore, the bar direct feeding billet insulation device 100 also includes a transition section 80, which is disposed between the direct feeding roller conveyor 10 and the lifting assembly 30.

[0051] Furthermore, the bar direct feeding billet insulation device 100 also includes a direct feeding roller motor 90, which is connected to the direct feeding roller 10, and the direct feeding roller motor 90 is used to drive the direct feeding roller 10 to rotate.

[0052] An embodiment of the present invention also provides a method of using the bar direct-feed billet insulation device 100, wherein the bar direct-feed billet insulation device 100 is used for insulation operations, and the method of use includes:

[0053] S1: The pusher 20 pushes the red billet 101 on the direct conveyor roller 10 onto the lifting assembly 30, and then returns to the direct conveyor roller 10 to continue pushing the red billet 101.

[0054] Specifically, after the billet 101 arrives at the direct conveyor roller 10, the pusher 20 pushes the billet 101 toward the lifting assembly 30. The billet 101 passes through the transition section 80 and finally arrives at the upper support 32 for placement. Then the pusher 20 returns to its original position and continues to push the billet 101 toward the lifting assembly 30 after the next billet 101 arrives at the direct conveyor roller 10.

[0055] S2: When the red blank 101 on the lifting assembly 30 reaches the position of the position sensor 40, the position sensor 40 is triggered and sends a position signal to the controller.

[0056] Specifically, when there are seven red billets 101 on the upper support 32, the red billet 101 furthest from the direct conveyor roller 10 will block the position sensor 40, thereby triggering the position sensor 40, which then sends a position signal to the control.

[0057] S3: After receiving the position signal from the position sensor 40, the controller controls the lifting assembly 30 to descend, and transports the red blank 101 on the lifting assembly 30 to the heat preservation cover 50 for heat preservation.

[0058] Specifically, under the control of the controller, the power unit 31 drives the upper support 32 to descend to a position flush with the conveyor roller 60, thereby transporting the red billet 101 onto the conveyor roller 60, so that the red billet 101 enters the heat preservation cover 50 for heat preservation.

[0059] In summary, this invention provides a bar billet direct feeding insulation device and its usage method. The device includes a direct feeding roller conveyor, a lifting assembly, a pusher, a position sensor, and a controller. The lifting assembly and the direct feeding roller conveyor are spaced apart. The pusher is movably mounted on the direct feeding roller conveyor and is used to push the billet from the direct feeding roller conveyor onto the lifting assembly. The position sensor is mounted on the lifting assembly and is used to detect the position information of the billet on the lifting assembly. The controller is electrically connected to both the position sensor and the lifting assembly, and is used to control the lifting assembly to operate after receiving the position signal from the position sensor. In use, after the billet reaches the direct feeding roller conveyor, the pusher pushes the billet onto the lifting assembly for temporary storage, then returns to the direct feeding roller conveyor to continue pushing the billet. When there are enough billets on the lifting assembly, the position sensor is triggered when a billet reaches its position, causing the position sensor to send a position signal to the controller, which then controls the lifting assembly to operate. Before entering the insulation hood, the red billet is temporarily stored on the lifting assembly and is not placed directly on the roller conveyor entering the insulation hood. This avoids damage and deformation caused by direct contact between the roller conveyor and the red billet, thereby reducing the probability of safety hazards and improving the life of the equipment.

[0060] The operation method of this bar billet direct feeding insulation device includes: the pusher pushes the red billet on the direct feeding roller conveyor onto the lifting assembly, and then returns to the direct feeding roller conveyor to continue pushing the red billet; when the red billet on the lifting assembly reaches the position sensor, the position sensor is triggered and sends a position signal to the controller; after receiving the position signal from the position sensor, the controller controls the lifting assembly to descend, conveying the red billet on the lifting assembly to the insulation cover for insulation. This operation method of the bar billet direct feeding insulation device can avoid damage and deformation of the roller conveyor after contact with the red billet, thereby reducing the probability of safety hazards and improving the lifespan of the device.

[0061] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
