Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of roll hoisting, and particularly relates to an auxiliary device for vertically hoisting large metallurgical rolls. Background Art

[0002] During the vertical machining or shrink-fitting hot installation process of large metallurgical rolls, the rolls need to be hoisted onto a vertical lathe or a hot installation station. During this process, the axis of the roll needs to be changed from a horizontal state to a vertical state. The main surfaces of the roll are all cylindrical surfaces, and the surfaces are the working surface and the bearing installation surface. Direct hoisting will cause surface damage. Therefore, it cannot be smoothly completed only by a crane, and a special hoisting tool needs to be designed. Through the hoisting tool, the roll can be smoothly transitioned from the horizontal axis state to the vertical axis state, ensuring that the spatial position adjustment is completed without damaging the roll; and avoiding the problem that if the roll axis is not in a vertical state during the shrink-fitting process, it will cause the roll sleeve and the roll core to be prematurely locked, resulting in the failure of the shrink-fitting and causing very large economic losses.

[0003] At the same time, due to the large weight, large length, and special shape of large metallurgical rolls, it is very difficult to accurately control the position and attitude of the rolls during vertical hoisting, posing a greater safety hazard to the personnel and equipment at the hoisting site. If a special roll vertical hoisting device and hoisting tool can be designed, it can not only improve the hoisting efficiency, stability, and safety during the hoisting process, but also have obvious engineering significance and application value.

[0005] The technical solution to realize the present invention is: an auxiliary device for vertically hoisting large metallurgical rolls, the auxiliary device includes a roll horizontal support mechanism and a roll commutation mechanism.

Detailed implementation manners

[0032] The following combines the attached Figure 1-19 and specific embodiments to further introduce the present invention.

[0033] As Figure 1 shown: The present invention is an auxiliary device for the vertical hoisting of large metallurgical rolls, which can achieve the spatial position adjustment without damaging the rolls. Generally, when the maximum diameter of a roll exceeds 1000 mm or the weight exceeds 20 t, it can be defined as a large roll. Due to the large volume and weight of such rolls, there are usually difficulties in hoisting. The specific structure includes: a roll horizontal support mechanism and a roll commutation mechanism; the roll horizontal support mechanism is used for the support of the roll 8 when it is horizontally placed and for facilitating the installation before the position and attitude adjustment. The roll commutation mechanism realizes the change of the position and attitude from the horizontal axis direction to the vertical axis state during the hoisting of the roll through the contact fit between the arc surfaces;

[0034] The roll horizontal support mechanism includes a roll system support base 11 and a support shaft mechanism; the roll system support base 11 is fixedly installed on the ground, and two groups of trapezoidal chutes are symmetrically machined on the upper surface, and fine grooves are machined on the upper surface of the trapezoidal chutes for subsequent addition of lubricating grease. The trapezoidal chutes on the upper surface of the roll system support base 11 are used for installing the guide groove.

[0035] As Figure 2 shown, a first arc surface is arranged at the end of the surface of the roll system support base 11 perpendicular to the chute direction.

[0036] Among them, the support shaft mechanism includes: a guide groove 12, a bearing block 6 and a support shaft 7;

[0037] As Figure 7As shown in the figure, a sliding groove is provided at the bottom of the guide groove 12, which is fitted with the sliding groove of the roll system support seat 11 to achieve a sliding connection between the two.

[0038] There are two sets of guide grooves 12;

[0039] Above the guide groove 12, a row of round holes are equidistantly arranged for fixedly installing the bearing seat 6 through screws. The support shaft 7 is rotatably installed with the bearing seat 6 through a rolling bearing and is limited by an elastic retaining ring; an arc-shaped rotating body structure is arranged in the middle of the support shaft 7 for better fitting with the outer cylindrical surface of the roll 8.

[0040] Preferably, the number of bearing seats 6 provided on each guide groove 12 is ≥ 2;

[0041] At the same time, according to the rolls 8 of different lengths, the distance between the bearing seats 6 on each guide groove 12 is adjusted by installing the bearing seats 6 in different round holes on the guide groove 12.

[0042] The roll commutation mechanism includes a pose adjustment mechanism and a guide disk limiting mechanism;

[0043] Among them, the pose adjustment mechanism includes a lower support upright guide disk 3, a support block 4 and a lower support seat 5; the lower support upright guide disk 3 is installed at the end of the first arc surface of the roll system support seat 11; the support block 4 is slidably installed on the lower support upright guide disk 3. In the horizontal state, the bottom of the lower support seat 5 is movably fitted on the arc surface of the lower support upright guide disk 3, and the outer circular wall of the lower support seat 5 is supported by the support block 4.

[0044] A second arc surface is recessed inward on the lower support upright guide disk 3, and the radius of curvature of the second arc surface is the same as that of the first arc surface;

[0045] A pair of trapezoidal convex grooves are symmetrically arranged at a position near the bottom on the second arc surface of the lower support upright guide disk 3 for installing the support block 4 and limiting the support block 4 to slide along the bottom curved surface; and the cross-sectional shape of the convex groove is high at both ends and low in the middle, so that the support block 4 will not move left and right under the action of gravity, making the support more stable.

[0046] On the symmetry axis of the lower support upright guide disk 3, a hole is provided at the bottom of the second arc surface, and a limit pin is installed in the hole through a spring; during the hoisting process, the fifth arc surface at the bottom of the lower support seat 5 presses the limit pin to temporarily press the limit pin back into the hole. After being completely erected, the hole at the bottom of the lower support seat 5 is located above the limit pin. At this time, since there is no restriction above, the limit pin will automatically return to the previous position and be stuck at the round hole at the bottom of the lower support seat 5 to limit and maintain the erected state of the lower support seat 5.

[0047] The bottom of the support block 4 is machined into a third arc surface, and the curvature radius of the third arc surface is the same as that of the first arc surface;

[0048] A trapezoidal groove is machined on the third arc surface of the support block 4 for mating installation with the trapezoidal protrusion on the vertical guide disc 3 of the lower support seat;

[0049] The top of the support block 4 is provided with a fourth arc surface for supporting the lower support seat 5; the curvature radius of the fourth arc surface is the same as that of the outer circular wall of the lower support seat 5.

[0050] A handle is provided on the support block 4 to increase the distance between the two support blocks 4 during the hoisting process so that the distance between the two support blocks 4 can allow the lower support seat 5 to pass through.

[0051] There are two groups of support blocks 4, and the structures of the two groups of support blocks 4 are axisymmetric.

[0052] A fifth arc surface is machined at the bottom of the lower support seat 5, and the fifth arc surface is in contact and cooperation with the first arc surface, and their curvature radii are the same.

[0053] Four hooks are provided on the lower support seat 5 and are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction for connecting the steel wire rope during hoisting.

[0054] A support installation hole for the roll 8 is provided in the middle of the lower support seat 5 for supporting and installing the roll 8.

[0055] The guide disc limiting mechanism includes: a hydraulic control mechanism 1 and a trapezoidal slideway 2; the trapezoidal slideway 2 is fixedly installed on the ground, and a trapezoidal groove is provided at the bottom of the vertical guide disc 3 of the lower support seat for sliding installation with the trapezoidal slideway 2 and realizing the limit perpendicular to the length direction of the trapezoidal slideway 2; the hydraulic control mechanism 1 is hinged on the ground, and one end of the hydraulic rod in the hydraulic control mechanism 1 is hinged to the rear of the vertical guide disc 3 of the lower support seat, and the hydraulic rod is controlled by the hydraulic cylinder so that the vertical guide disc 3 of the lower support seat can perform reciprocating linear motion on the trapezoidal slideway 2.

[0056] The trapezoidal slideway 2 is fixed to the ground, and small grooves are machined on its upper surface for facilitating lubrication during subsequent work.

[0057] The auxiliary device for the vertical hoisting of large metallurgical rolls further includes: an upper lifting disc 9 and a fixing block 10; the upper lifting disc 9 is installed at one end of the roll 8 away from the lower support seat 5,

[0058] The installation method of the upper lifting disc 9 is: after the upper lifting disc 9 is sleeved on the end of the roll 8, it is rotated by an angle, and due to the matching of their own shapes, the fixing block 10 is filled in the gap to prevent the circumferential movement between the two from causing loosening of the fit.

[0059] The surface of the upper lifting plate 9 is provided with 4 hook-shaped bends, which are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction for connecting the steel wire rope during lifting.

[0060] An auxiliary device for the vertical lifting of large metallurgical rolls disclosed by the present invention has the following working process for the lifting of large metallurgical rolls:

[0061] When a large roll 8 needs to be lifted, first, the lower support base vertical guide plate 3 is docked with the curved surface of the roll system support base 11, the support block 4 is installed on the lower support base vertical guide plate 3, the lower support base 5 is transported to the support block 4 through the support shaft 7, and the bottom of the lower support base 5 is in contact and cooperation with the curved surface of the lower support base guide plate 3. After one end of the roll 8 is sleeved into the upper lifting plate 9, the other end is transported into the lower support base 5 through the support shaft 7. The two support blocks are pulled in opposite directions through the handle on the support block 4, leaving enough gaps in the middle for the roll to stand up. The steel wire rope is passed through two pairs of hook-shaped bends and then lifted by a hoist. During this process, the fifth arc surface at the bottom of the lower support base 5 closely adheres to the second arc surface of the lower support base vertical guide plate 3 and is lubricated with grease to reduce friction. When the roll 8 and the lower support base 5 stand up, they will push against the guide groove 12 and move backward. When the roll 8 and the lower support base 5 are completely upright, the limit pin will pop out and be stuck at the round hole at the bottom of the lower support base 5 to play a limiting role.
