Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the application field of uncoilers, and in particular to a control system and a control method for a brush roller of an uncoiler. Background Art
[0002] During the flattening process, the strip surface moves downward as the outer diameter of the steel coil decreases, and the operator needs to frequently adjust the working position of the brush roller. The contact range between the brush roller and the strip is unstable when it is manually controlled. The contact area between the brush roller and the strip is small and the contact cleanliness is insufficient. Excessive contact will cause problems such as excessive wear, deformation and falling of the brush hairs, which will reduce the service life of consumable parts and increase the pressure of foreign matter when the brush hairs enter the rough straightening machine with the strip steel, which will have a huge impact on product quality.
[0003] In view of the small contact area between the brush roller and the strip caused by the manual setting of the brush roller height of the existing uncoiler, the contact cleanliness is insufficient, and the excessive contact causes the bristles to be excessively worn, deformed and fallen off. The bristles are rolled with the strip into the rough straightening machine, which increases the pressure of foreign matter. During the leveling process, the linear speed of the brush roller motor on the uncoiler is controlled to be constant relative to the linear speed of the main production line, and the initial position of the brush roller is calculated. After reaching the initial position, the torque of the brush roller motor on the uncoiler is changed to control the upper brush roller cleaning device to follow the position of the strip, so as to achieve constant torque output of the upper brush roller motor and meet the requirement of effectively cleaning the oxide on the steel plate surface. Summary of the invention

[0013] Step 4, manual control strategy, manual control controls the rotation and lifting of the brush roller hydraulic cylinder and motor through buttons; manual control program of the brush roller lifting cylinder on the uncoiler, input interface LU is the lower limit of the cylinder stroke, input interface LL is the lower limit of the cylinder, input interface S is the manual action enable command, input interface SV is the current position value when the equipment is manually put into use, input interface CD / CU are the manual cylinder lifting control commands, and the program scanning cycle is integrated with the input interface TA cycle increment, and the cylinder target position is given by the output interface Y to ensure smooth movement under manual cylinder control.
[0014] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention using the above structure are as follows: after the control program is put into use, according to the on-site usage conditions, the program reliability and control accuracy both meet the design requirements; by monitoring the motor output torque curve, the optimized control system can continuously and stably control the brush force of the brush roller, and excellently complete the cleaning of oxides on the steel plate surface.

[0033] Table 1 Execution units in program control after optimization
[0034]
[0035] The present invention is a control method for a control system of a brush roller of an unwinding machine, comprising the following steps:
[0036] Step 1: Optimize the brush roller preparation position, such as Figure 4 , calculate in advance the coordinates of point B where the brush roller intersects with the strip when it is extended, and achieve accurate positioning of the brush roller preparation position;
[0037] Known conditions: Equipment position: (X2, Y2), ∠α, (X4, Y4), (X6, Y6)R2;
[0038] Known: The brush roller cylinder is installed vertically;
[0039] Displacement sensor displacement: M1, M2;
[0040] Obtain the coordinates of the intersection point A: X3 = (X2-M1×sin30°); Y3 = (Y2-M1×cos30°);
[0041] Find the coordinates of the tangent point C through point A and the circle. Figure 5 :
[0042] Establish a coordinate system with point O as the origin;
[0043] PC is the equation of the tangent line of the circle:
[0044] x7x+y7y=R 2 (1)
[0045] P on PC:
[0046] x7x3+y7y3=R 2 (2)
[0047] C is on circle O:
[0048]
[0049] Substituting into (3) we get:
[0050]
[0051] make Substituting into (4) we get:
[0052]
[0053] Using the root-finding formula we get:
[0054]
[0055] (6) Substitution y7 is obtained from the equation, so the coordinates of the tangent point C of a point P outside the circle to the tangent line are:
[0056]
[0057] Combining x=x4 and equation (1), we can find the intersection point M of MN and PC. The coordinates of M are:
[0058]
[0059] ∠CMH=θ
[0060]
[0061]
[0062] The brush roller radius is set to r;
[0063] The coordinates of point Q (intersection position B) are:
[0064]
[0065]
[0066] Step 2: Inverter and communication control strategy. The inverter control strategy uses vector control. Vector control is a technology that uses inverters to control three-phase AC motors. The basic principle of vector control is to measure and control the stator current vector of the asynchronous motor, and to control the excitation current and torque current of the asynchronous motor according to the magnetic field orientation principle, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the torque of the asynchronous motor. The master station and the inverter use Profinet protocol communication;
[0067] Control word, status word interactive program, such as Figure 6 , call Siemens standard function blocks SFC14 and SFC15 to use Siemens message 220, PZD-10 / 10 to complete data interaction with the slave station;
[0068] Step 3, automatic control strategy, automatic program programming method adopts automatic step sequence control, such as Figure 7As shown, the cylinder pressure is controlled by the difference between the real-time torque of the brush roller and the no-load torque; the brush roller CPU communicates unilaterally with the main production line CPU to obtain the key signal of the main production line to complete the protective interlocking of the cylinder; the brush roller speed is set by the set value of the speed difference between the brush roller and the production line in the HMI and the main production line speed obtained in real time through communication, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, the program segment calculates the speed value, and adjusts the brush roller working speed according to the slope and speed changes of the main production line to ensure the stable operation of the brush roller;
[0069] Step 4: Manual control strategy: Manual control controls the rotation and lifting of the brush roller hydraulic cylinder and motor through buttons; manual control program of the brush roller lifting cylinder on the uncoiler, such as Fig. 9 , input interface LU is the lower limit of the cylinder stroke, input interface LL is the lower limit of the cylinder, input interface S is the manual action enable command, input interface SV is the current position value when the equipment is manually put into operation, input interfaces CD / CU are respectively the manual lifting and lowering control commands of the cylinder. The program scanning cycle is integrated with the cycle increment of the input interface TA, and the target position of the cylinder is given by the output interface Y to ensure the smooth movement of the cylinder under manual control.
[0070] Runtime Closure Closed-Loop Control Optimization Problem
[0071] like Fig.10 As shown, it forms the control quantity by linearly combining the proportion (P), integral (I), and differential (D) of the deviation e(t) between the given value r(t) and the actual output value c(t), and controls the control object through the actuator.
[0072] The relationship between the output m(t) and input e(t) of the PID controller is shown as follows:
[0073]
[0074] Where Kp is the adjustable proportional coefficient; Ti is the adjustable integral time constant; τ is the differential time constant.
[0075] PI control is a feedback control method based on proportional (P) and integral (I) control. It achieves stable control of the system by adjusting the output of the controller to reduce the deviation between the input and the set value. Compared with the PI controller, the PID controller has an additional differential control component (D), which can provide more precise control performance and response characteristics, eliminate dynamic deviations, reduce oscillations in the control process, and prevent overshoot.
[0076] The relationship between the output m(t) and input e(t) of the PI controller is shown as follows:
[0077]
[0078] Kp is the adjustable proportional coefficient; Ti is the adjustable integral time constant.
[0079] The position closed loop control uses Siemens PID function block FB41 (CONT_C) as follows Fig.11 In addition to basic PID operations, the FB41 function block also provides advanced functions such as integral set value, integral hold, dead zone, and disturbance-free switching (manual to automatic switching).
[0080] It should be understood that although this specification is described according to implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
