Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fully automatic hot upsetting test technology, specifically to a fully automatic hot upsetting test control system and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Hot upsetting test is a test in which pressure is applied along the axis of the metal sample while it is hot to compress the sample, and to test the metal's ability to withstand upsetting plastic deformation under a specified forging ratio and to show surface defects of the metal.

[0003] Current hot upsetting tests primarily involve manually forking the sample into a heating furnace, heating it, and then manually forking it into a hot upsetting testing machine. The machine is then manually operated to complete the hot upsetting test. Because hot upsetting tests are time-consuming, at least two people are required to operate the machine manually, resulting in low testing efficiency and wasted manpower as operators must remain on-site. Furthermore, repeated work under high temperature and high pressure can easily lead to occupational diseases related to high temperatures, and even safety issues such as oxide scale splashing, sample falling or flying out.

[0004] Patent application number CN201911395036.3 discloses an automatic forging feeding device and its automatic feeding method. It integrates automatic feeding and distributing, automatic heating, and automatic clamping and feeding functions, achieving fully automated control with high efficiency and low cost. The key technical features include a frame on which a feeding mechanism, a distributing mechanism, a heating mechanism, and a feeding mechanism are sequentially mounted. A first conveying track connects the feeding mechanism and the distributing mechanism; two second conveying tracks connect the distributing mechanism and the heating mechanism; and a third conveying track connects the heating mechanism and the feeding mechanism. The outlet ends of the two second conveying tracks converge and connect to the inlet end of the third conveying track. The convergence point of the two second conveying tracks is located within the heating mechanism. This device is applicable to the field of automated feeding technology.

[0005] While the invention solves some problems, the patent only addresses automatic feeding, but does not fully automate the entire process.

[0006] Therefore, drawing upon years of extensive experience in design, development, and practical manufacturing in this related industry, the applicant has researched and improved upon existing structures and shortcomings to provide a fully automated hot upsetting test control system and its usage method. This system effectively solves the problems of low efficiency, high operational safety risks, and wasted manpower in hot upsetting tests, aiming to achieve a more practical and valuable outcome. Summary of the Invention

[0007] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a fully automatic hot upsetting test control system and its usage method. This solves the problems of requiring at least two personnel to operate the system, resulting in low test efficiency and wasting manpower by having operators constantly on-site. Furthermore, repeated work under high temperature and high pressure equipment can easily lead to occupational diseases caused by high temperatures, and even safety issues such as oxide scale splashing, sample falling or flying out.

[0009] (II) Technical Solution

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a fully automatic hot upsetting test control system, comprising an upsetting machine, a hydraulic oil pump, a robot, a box-type high-temperature furnace, a control system, an observation platform, and an industrial control computer. The industrial control computer is equipped with a control system for operators to input information about the samples to be tested. The upsetting machine is equipped with a scale cleaning device to clean and collect residual iron oxide scale after each test. The upsetting machine is also equipped with a temperature measuring device to measure the sample temperature during final forging. The observation platform is used to observe the samples, and a scrap cleaning device is installed on the platform to automatically clean the samples to be discarded onto the scrap hopper. A material rack is placed on the same side of the observation platform, and the rack holds a material tray for placing the samples to be tested. A safety guardrail is installed on the outside of the fully automatic hot upsetting test control system to protect the equipment and personnel, preventing samples from flying out and scale from splashing.

[0011] Preferably, in the control system, the upsetting machine, hydraulic oil pump, box-type high-temperature furnace, material rack, observation platform, temperature measuring device and industrial control computer are arranged in a rectangle, and the robot is placed in the center of the rectangle; the temperature measuring device measures the final forging temperature of the sample, and the measurable temperature is not lower than 1000℃.

[0012] Preferably, the robot replaces manual labor and is controlled by a control system to control the transfer of samples between the material rack, box-type high-temperature furnace, upsetting machine, and observation platform, thereby achieving full automation of the hot upsetting test. The control system can set the order of samples and test process parameters according to the sample placement on the material rack. Specific parameters include sample number, specifications, steel type, sample length, upsetting ratio, heat treatment process, etc.

[0013] A method for using a fully automated hot upsetting test control system includes the following steps:

[0014] S1: Build a fully automated hot upsetting test control system; combine the following components: upsetting machine, hydraulic oil pump, robot, box-type high-temperature furnace, control system, material rack, observation platform (sample), temperature measuring device, safety guardrail, oxide scale cleaning device, waste cleaning device and industrial control computer.

[0015] S2: Place the test samples. Place the test samples on the rack according to the specifications, quantity and order of the racks.

The samples to be discarded after being observed on the sample observation platform are pushed to the waste hopper.

[0023] S10: Repeat S1 to S8 above to continuously perform automatic hot upsetting tests.

[0024] Preferably, in step S2, after the placement is completed, the safety barrier should be closed. The safety barrier is equipped with an electronic interlock function, that is, if any part of the safety barrier is not closed, the entire system cannot operate.

[0025] The rack contains eight trays with the following parameters: two trays with a diameter range of 5mm-15mm, each capable of holding 30 samples; two trays with a diameter range of 16mm-45mm, each capable of holding 12 samples; two trays with a diameter range of 46mm-90mm, each capable of holding 9 samples; and two trays with a diameter range of 91mm-160mm, each capable of holding 4 samples. The sample positions on each tray must be labeled in Arabic numerals.

[0026] Preferably, in step S3, the control system mounted on the industrial computer has the function of selecting the corresponding material tray according to the different diameters of the sample to be forged.

[0027] Preferably, in step S4, the robot's gripper is movable and retractable, and has the characteristics of being resistant to high-temperature oxidation at 1300℃, wear-resistant, high-hardness, and not easily deformed. It can hold samples with diameters of 5mm-160mm and forged samples, and maintains stability during the gripping process to prevent them from being thrown out and falling. The heating temperature of the box-type high-temperature furnace is not lower than 1300℃.

[0028] Preferably, in step S5, the robot automatically grabs the sample and feeds it onto the forging platform of the top forging machine, and the entire process takes no more than thirty seconds; in step S6, the forging arm automatically forges the sample according to the control system settings, and the process of the forging arm moving from the forging platform to the start of forging takes no more than thirty seconds.

[0029] Preferably, in step S8, the oxide scale cleaning device consists of a baffle, a blowing device, and a dust collection device, which can automatically clean and collect the residual iron oxide scale on the upsetting machine after each test; the baffle should ensure that the oxide scale does not splash when it is blown and that the working condition of the upsetting machine can be observed; the power of the blowing device and the dust collection device can support the operation of the device.

[0030] Preferably, in step S9, the waste cleaning device consists of a table, a power unit, a push plate, side guards, a lead screw, and a waste hopper; the power unit consists of a servo motor, a reducer, a synchronous belt, and a synchronous pulley; wherein the servo motor drives the reducer, the reducer drives the synchronous pulley, the synchronous pulley drives the lead screw to rotate via the synchronous belt, and the lead screw nut moves to drive the push plate to push the sample into the waste hopper; the sample pushing mechanism works to push the sample into the waste bin on one side of the observation table; side guards are installed on both sides of the table to prevent the sample from falling to the ground during the pushing process; the waste hopper should be able to be directly loaded and unloaded by a forklift.

[0032] This invention provides a fully automated hot upsetting test control system and its usage method. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0033] Compared with existing manual operation, this invention connects various devices in series with a robot. The robot grabs the sample according to the sequence set in the control system, realizing automatic sample feeding, heating, and unloading in the furnace, as well as automatic loading, top testing, and unloading. The sample is then automatically placed in sequence on the sample observation platform, realizing the automation and unmanned operation of hot upsetting test, saving human resources, improving inspection efficiency, enhancing intrinsic safety level, and improving the level of intelligent manufacturing.

[0034] The invention achieves consistent detection, as detailed below:

[0035] (1) Real-time feedback and synchronous inspection can provide product status and quality information in real time, enabling producers and operators to understand the quality status of products in a timely manner, correct existing problems in a timely manner, and reduce the generation of defective products.

The industrial control computer 12 is equipped with the control system 5 for operators to input information about the samples to be tested. An oxide scale cleaning device 10 is installed on the upsetting machine 1 to clean and collect residual iron oxide scale on the upsetting machine after each test. A temperature measuring device 8 is installed on the upsetting machine 1 to measure the sample temperature during final forging. The observation platform 7 is used to observe the samples, and a waste cleaning device 11 is installed on the platform to automatically clean the samples to be discarded on the observation platform 7 into the waste hopper. A material rack 6 is placed on the same side of the observation platform 7, and the material rack 6 holds a material tray for placing the samples to be tested.

[0045] In the control system, the upsetting machine 1, hydraulic oil pump 2, box-type high-temperature furnace 4, material rack 6, observation platform 7, temperature measuring device 8 and industrial control computer 12 are arranged in a rectangle, and robot 3 is placed in the center of the rectangle; temperature measuring device 8 measures the final forging temperature of the sample, and the measurable temperature is not lower than 1000℃.

[0046] Robot 3 replaces manual labor and is controlled by control system 5 to control the transfer of samples between material rack 6, box-type high-temperature furnace 4, upsetting machine 1 and observation platform 7, realizing the full automation of hot upsetting test; control system 5 can set the order of samples and test process parameters according to the sample placement on material rack 6, including sample number, specifications, steel grade, sample length, upsetting ratio, heat treatment process, etc.

[0047] Please see Figure 2 A method for using a fully automatic hot upsetting test control system includes the following steps:

[0048] S1: Build a fully automatic hot upsetting test control system; combine the following components: upsetting machine 1, hydraulic oil pump 2, robot 3, box-type high temperature furnace 4, control system 5, material rack 6, observation platform 7, sample, temperature measuring device 8, safety guardrail 9, oxide scale cleaning device 10, waste cleaning device 11, and industrial control computer 12.

[0049] S2: Place the test samples. Place the test samples on the rack 6. The test samples should be placed on the rack 6 in a regular manner according to the specifications, quantity and order of the racks.

[0050] S3: Enter the information of the sample to be inspected. The operator enters the information of the sample to be inspected in the control system 5 of the industrial control computer 12. It should be ensured that the order of the sample number on the material tray is consistent with the order of the number of the information entered to prevent the test data after the sample is upset from not matching.

[0051] S4: Automatic furnace heating. After the sample information is entered, click the start button. The robot 3 will automatically grab the sample that has been placed on the material rack 6. The sample should be placed into the box-type high-temperature furnace 4 in the order of the material trays for heating. The door of the high-temperature furnace is designed to allow the robot 3 to grab the sample inside the furnace. The order of the sample placement inside the furnace must be in accordance with the order of the material trays to ensure correspondence.

[0052] S5: Automatic furnace unloading and feeding. After receiving the signal that the heat treatment process has been completed, robot 3 will grab the heated sample from the box-type high-temperature furnace 4 and feed it to the forging platform of the top forging machine 1. Then, the box-type high-temperature furnace 4 will immediately close the furnace door to ensure that the furnace door closes once the robot 3 grabs the sample.

[0053] S6: Start the upsetting test. After the robot 3 places the sample on the upsetting platform and removes it, the upsetting machine 1 automatically performs rapid upsetting on the sample according to the forging ratio set in the control system 5.

[0054] S7: Automatic feeding. When robot 3 receives the signal that the lower module of the top forging machine 1 has returned to the initial position, it automatically grabs the forged sample on the forging platform of the top forging machine 1 and places it on the observation platform 7 in the order of the forging to prevent the sample numbers from being mixed.

[0055] S8: Automatic iron oxide scale removal. The iron oxide scale remaining on the upsetting machine 1 after each test is automatically cleaned and collected by the iron oxide scale removal device 10, ensuring that there is no iron oxide scale residue on the forging platform.

[0056] S9: Automatic sample cleaning. After the manual inspection of the sample surface after forging is completed, the switch of the waste cleaning device 11 is turned on, and the waste cleaning device 11 automatically cleans the sample to be discarded on the sample observation platform 7 and pushes it to the waste hopper.

[0057] S10: Repeat S1 to S8 above to continuously perform automatic hot upsetting tests.

[0058] In step S2, after placement, the safety barrier 9 should be closed. This barrier is equipped with an electronic interlock function, meaning that if any part of the barrier is not closed, the entire system will not function.

[0059] The material rack 6 has eight material trays with the following parameters: two trays with a diameter range of 5mm-15mm, which can hold 30 samples; two trays with a diameter range of 16mm-45mm, which can hold 12 samples; two trays with a diameter range of 46mm-90mm, which can hold 9 samples; and two trays with a diameter range of 91mm-160mm, which can hold 4 samples. The sample positions on each tray must be sorted and labeled using Arabic numerals.

[0060] In step S3, the control system 5 mounted on the industrial computer 12 has the function of selecting the corresponding material tray according to the different diameters of the sample to be forged.

[0061] In step S4, the gripper of robot 3 can extend and retract, and has the characteristics of being resistant to high-temperature oxidation of 1300℃, wear-resistant, high hardness, and not easily deformed. It can hold samples with diameters of 5mm-160mm and forged samples, and maintain stability during the gripping process to prevent them from being thrown out and falling. The box-type high-temperature furnace 4 has a heating temperature of not less than 1300℃.

[0062] In step S5, robot 3 automatically grabs the sample and feeds it onto the forging platform of the top forging machine 1. The entire process must not exceed thirty seconds.

[0063] In step S6, the forging arm is set to automatically forge the sample according to the control system 5. The process of the forging arm moving from the forging platform to the start of forging should not exceed thirty seconds.

[0064] In step S8, the scale cleaning device 10 consists of a baffle, a blowing device, and a dust collection device. After each test, it can automatically clean and collect the residual iron oxide scale on the upsetting machine 1. The baffle should ensure that the scale does not splash when it is blown and that the working condition of the upsetting machine 1 can be observed. The power of the blowing device and the dust collection device can support the operation of the device.

[0065] In step S9, the waste cleaning device 11 consists of a table, a power unit, a push plate, side guards, a lead screw, and a waste hopper. The power unit consists of a servo motor, a reducer, a synchronous belt, and a synchronous pulley. The servo motor drives the reducer, which drives the synchronous pulley. The synchronous pulley drives the lead screw to rotate via the synchronous belt. The lead screw nut moves, causing the push plate to push the sample into the waste hopper. The sample pushing mechanism works, pushing the sample into the waste bin on one side of the observation table. Side guards are installed on both sides of the table to prevent the sample from falling to the ground during the pushing process. The waste hopper should be able to be directly loaded and unloaded by a forklift.

[0066] Example:

[0067] Step 1: Place the test samples. Place the test samples on the No. 1 tray in the order of tray number, specification, and sample number.

[0068] Step 2: Enter the information of the test sample to be inspected. In the control system 1 of the industrial computer 12, enter the information such as the material tray number, the position number of the sample on the material tray, the sample number, the specifications, the steel type, the sample length, the upsetting ratio, and the heat treatment process of the test sample.

[0069] Step 3: Automatic furnace heating. Start the system control program 1. The robot 3 automatically grabs the samples that have been placed on the material rack 6 and places them into the box-type high-temperature furnace 4 in order of increasing size according to the material tray number and the order in which the samples are placed on the material tray.

[0070] Step four involves automatic furnace unloading and loading. After receiving the signal indicating that the heat treatment process is complete, robot 3 automatically picks up the heated samples from the box-type high-temperature furnace 4 and feeds them onto the forging platform of the top forging machine 1. The furnace door is closed each time the samples are picked up to maintain the furnace temperature. At this point, the order in which robot 3 removes the samples from the furnace is exactly the reverse of the order in which they were put in. Note the sample numbers.

[0071] Step 5 begins the upsetting test. Robot 3 automatically delivers the sample to the forging platform of the upsetting machine 1, and the upsetting machine 1 automatically forges the sample according to the forging ratio and other parameters set in the control system 5.

[0072] Step 6: Automatic feeding. When robot 3 receives the signal that the lower module of the upsetting machine 1 has returned to its initial position after the upsetting test is completed, robot 3 automatically grabs the forged sample on the forging platform of the upsetting machine 1 and places it on the sample observation platform 7 in sequence.

[0073] Step 7: Automatic cleaning of iron oxide scale. After the robot 3 removes the sample from the platform of the upsetting machine 1, the protective door closes automatically, and the iron oxide scale cleaning device 10 automatically cleans and collects the residual iron oxide scale on the upsetting machine.

[0074] Step 8: Automatic sample cleaning. Observe whether there are cracks on the outer circumference of the forged sample. After completion, click the waste cleaning device 11 switch to start the waste cleaning switch. The waste cleaning device 11 will automatically clean the sample to be discarded on the sample observation platform 7 and push it to the waste hopper.

[0075] Step 9: Repeat steps 1 to 6 above to continue the automatic hot upsetting test.

[0076] In summary, compared with existing manual operations, this invention connects various devices in series with a robot. The robot grabs the sample according to the sequence set in the control system, realizing automatic sample loading, heating, unloading, feeding, top testing, and unloading, and automatically placing the sample in sequence on the sample observation platform. This achieves automation and unmanned operation of hot upsetting tests, saves human resources, improves inspection efficiency, enhances intrinsic safety, and improves the level of intelligent manufacturing.

[0077] The invention achieves consistent detection, as detailed below:

[0078] (1) Real-time feedback and synchronous inspection can provide product status and quality information in real time, enabling producers and operators to understand the quality status of products in a timely manner, correct existing problems in a timely manner, and reduce the generation of defective products.
