However, the mechanism for replacing the slide and the sliding frame is not introduced. When the molten steel in the ladle is drained, the refractory material in the mechanism needs to be replaced because the number of continuous sliding times of the friction surface of the slide reaches the limit. In order to reduce energy consumption, avoid baking the ladle again, save time, and improve the turnover of the ladle, as long as the ladle as a whole can continue to be used, it is quickly replaced when the ladle is not cooled. If manual replacement is used, there will be safety risks and low efficiency. Secondly, the slag blocking mechanism is heavy, the workload is large and the labor intensity is high. In addition, the mechanism is a product that is currently in use on site, and the size and shape deformation errors are large; after being heated in the steelmaking furnace, there is an uncertain bonding force between the parts and refractory materials; the metal dust and background noise environment at the steelmaking plant maintenance site is relatively poor.

[0021] The method of using the full-process automation equipment for the maintenance of the converter slide slag retaining mechanism includes:

[0022] Step 1: Remove the bolts of the tensioner and heat shield

[0023] Under the program instruction, the robot connects the gripper body placed on the rack to its arm through the quick connection plate, aligns the disassembly wrench with one of the three bolts on the tensioner through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position and hexagonal head of the bolt through the visual system;

[0024] The manipulator moves so that the center of the disassembly wrench is aligned with the center of the bolt;

[0025] The manipulator rotates so that the anti-torque blocking rod is close to the edge of the mechanism (no axial overlap);

[0026] The servo motor rotates to make the direction of the disassembly wrench consistent with the direction of the hexagonal head of the bolt;

[0027] The manipulator moves along the axial direction of the bolt to put the disassembly wrench into the hexagonal head of the bolt. The manipulator takes the disassembly wrench as the center and makes the anti-torque retaining rod close to the edge of the mechanism (the axial direction has overlapped);

[0028] The servo motor is started under program control, and the disassembly wrench connected to the output end of the multi-stage reducer slowly loosens and unscrews the bolts while the servo motor is rotating;

[0029] Finally, it is placed into the ground recovery frame by the robot;

[0030] Repeat the above process, unscrew the other two bolts, put them into the recycling frame, and the robot swings the gripper body back to the rack and disengages it from the rack, and the process is completed;

[0031] Step 2: Remove the outer nozzle and the tightener

[0032] Under the program instruction, the robot connects the gripper body 2 placed on the rack to its arm through the quick receiving plate, and aligns it with the center of the outer nozzle through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the outer nozzle and the outer diameter of the front end through the visual system;

[0033] The three claws of the hydraulic chuck are driven by the hydraulic station so that the inner circle of the claws is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the front end of the external water outlet;

[0034] The manipulator moves along the axial direction of the outer water outlet until the three clamping claws are sleeved on the front end of the outer water outlet, and the clamping claws clamp the outer water outlet under the drive of the hydraulic station;

[0035] The manipulator moves backwards, overcomes the bonding force between the outer water outlet and the outer slide plate, removes the tightener on the outer water outlet from the mechanism, and puts it into the ground recovery frame;

[0036] The robot swings the second gripper body back to the placement frame and disengages it from the placement frame, and the process is completed;

[0037] Step 3: Dismantle the skateboard

[0038] When the mechanism is opened and positioned, the manipulator connects the gripper body placed on the rack to its arm through the quick-connect plate under the program instruction, and aligns it with the center of the cavity of the mounting plate slide or the cavity hole of the sliding frame slide through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the cavity center hole, the plane position of the cavity bottom and the position of the slot hole on the cavity through the visual system;

[0039] The manipulator moves forward along the axial direction of the center hole of the cavity until the three upper pressure-bearing bodies of the gripper body are supported on the outer plane of the slide cavity. At this time, the movable hook body has extended into the slot hole reserved on the edge of the cavity. At the same time, the extrusion block acts on the slope surface of the side pressure block, forcing the jamming body to detach from the side of the side pressure block. The cylinder starts to work, pushing the front end of the movable hook body to turn to the bottom of the slide and pry upward to overcome the adhesion between the bottom of the slide and the slide cavity. Then the movable hook body continues to rotate so that the side surface clamps the slide inward, and the manipulator moves backward along the axial direction of the center hole of the cavity to remove the slide from the slide cavity and put it into the ground recovery frame;

[0040] The robot swings the gripper body back to the placement rack and disengages it from the rack, and the process is completed;

[0041] Step 4: Slide frame removal

[0042] Under the program instruction, the robot connects the gripper body 4 placed on the rack to its arm through the quick connection plate, and aligns its hook part with the cylinder latch on the sliding frame through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the cylinder latch and the bottom surface position of the sliding frame through the visual system;

[0043] The manipulator rotates so that its cross bar is close to the bottom surface of the sliding frame, and at the same time, the manipulator moves so that its hook part coincides with the center of the cylinder pin on the sliding frame;

[0044] The manipulator moves upward, overcomes the gravity of the sliding frame and the top tightening sleeve connected thereto, removes them from the mechanism together, and puts them into the specified position of the sliding frame on the placement rack. The manipulator swings the gripper body back to the placement rack and disengages it from its position, and the process is completed.

[0045] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0046] 1. The present invention adopts a manipulator to connect different gripper bodies to the arm via a quick-change connecting plate to perform operations of different processes, such as the processes of disassembling and assembling the tightener and the heat insulation board bolts, the external water outlet and the tightener, the slide plate, the sliding frame and the tightening sleeve, thereby realizing the full-process maintenance operation of the mechanism.

[0047] 2. The present invention adopts a disassembly and assembly body of a brand-new structure. The servo motor torque can generate a large torque after being decelerated and amplified by a multi-stage reducer. In the first moment of loosening the bolt, it can provide torque that overcomes not only the tightening torque during installation, but also the torque increased by deformation and bonding of the bolt after use. The anti-torque retaining rod is close to the edge of the mechanism because there is a gap along the axial movement of the bolt. Through the flexible connection at the front end of the manipulator, the large torque generated when disassembling and assembling the bolt forms a closed mechanical system between the mechanism equipment and the gripper body through the anti-torque retaining rod, so that the manipulator is not subject to torque in principle, but only bears the task of taking and taking, which greatly protects the main equipment.

[0048] 3. The bonding force between the bottom of the skateboard and the skateboard cavity of the present invention is uncertain and may be very large. Therefore, when the front end of the movable hook body pries the skateboard upward, the four pressure-bearing bodies on the second gripper body have been supported on the outer plane of the skateboard cavity, so that a closed mechanical system is formed between the movable hook body and the supporting point, so that the manipulator is not subject to tension in principle, and is only responsible for taking things, which greatly protects the main equipment.

[0049] 4. The present invention adds a clamping structure in the skateboard cavity for automatically fixing the skateboard, eliminating the clamping device in the skateboard cavity for pressing the skateboard from one side to the other side, and then cooperates with the movable hook body to realize the disassembly and assembly of the skateboard, and the problem of the skateboard falling will not occur after the blocking block and the side pressure block are separated.

The disassembly gripper 1 40 is used to disassemble and assemble the top tightener and the heat insulation board bolts. The torque generated when disassembling and assembling the bolts forms a closed mechanical system between the mechanism and the disassembly gripper 1 40, so that the manipulator 30 is not subjected to torque in principle; the disassembly gripper 2 50 is used to disassemble and assemble the top tightener and the outer water outlet; the disassembly gripper 3 60 is used to disassemble and assemble the inner slide plate and the outer slide plate; the disassembly gripper 4 70 is used to disassemble and assemble the sliding frame and the top tightening sleeve.

The anti-torque baffle 43 is close to the edge of the mechanism because there is a gap along the axial movement of the bolt. Through the flexible connection at the front end of the manipulator 30, the large torque generated when disassembling the bolt forms a closed mechanical system between the mechanism equipment and the gripper body 41 through the anti-torque baffle 43, so that the manipulator 30 is not subject to torque in principle, but only bears the task of taking and taking, which greatly protects the main equipment.

When disassembling and assembling the sliding frame and the tightening sleeve, a notch is provided on one side of the hook portion 72 for socketing the cylinder latch installed on the sliding frame, and the cross bar 73 is close to the bottom surface of the sliding frame.

[0073] Embodiment 4, in the device, as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the disassembly and assembly gripper three 60 includes a gripper body three 61, and the gripper body two 51 is installed on the quick-change plate. A cylinder 62 and a fixed block 63 are installed on the gripper body two 51, and a movable hook body 64 is rotatably installed on the fixed block 63. The movable hook body 64 is an L-shaped structure, and the output end of the cylinder 62 passes through the gripper body two 51 and is connected to the movable hook body 64 through a connecting rod 65.

[0074] The fixed block 63 is provided with a pressure-bearing body 631 and a crimping body 632 . The pressure-bearing body 631 is located on the outside of the crimping body 632 . When the inner and outer slide plates are disassembled, the pressure-bearing body 631 is pressed against the outside of the slide plate cavity, and the movable hook body 64 pries the slide plate upward onto the crimping body 632 .

[0075] Embodiment 5, in the device, as Figures 8 to 12 As shown, a clamping structure is installed in the slide cavity of the converter slag blocking mechanism, the clamping structure includes a side pressure block 81, a slide pin 82 and a slide pin 83 are installed on the side pressure block 81, a slide groove 84 and a slide groove 85 are arranged on the side of the slide cavity, the slide groove 84 and the slide groove 85 are arranged along the thickness direction of the slide cavity, the slide pin 82 is slidably matched in the slide groove 84, and the slide pin 83 is slidably matched in the slide groove 85;

[0080] The method of using the full-process automation equipment for the maintenance of the converter slide slag retaining mechanism includes:

[0081] The converter slag retaining mechanism is removed from the converter outlet of the steelmaking plant and fixed to the debugging frame 10 by four movable bolts through manual lifting operation. At this time, the converter slag retaining mechanism is set vertically to the ground;

[0082] Step 1: Remove the bolts of the tensioner and heat shield

[0083] Under the program instruction, the manipulator 30 connects the gripper body 41 placed on the display rack 20 to its arm through the quick connection plate, aligns the disassembly wrench 46 with one of the three bolts on the tightener through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position and hexagonal head of the bolt through the visual system;

[0084] The manipulator 30 moves so that the center of the disassembly wrench 46 is aligned with the center of the bolt;

[0085] The manipulator 30 rotates so that the anti-torque blocking rod 43 is close to the edge of the mechanism (no axial overlap);

[0086] The servo motor 44 rotates so that the direction of the disassembly wrench 46 is consistent with the direction of the hexagonal head of the bolt;

[0087] The manipulator 30 moves along the axial direction of the bolt to make the disassembly wrench 46 insert into the hexagonal head of the bolt. The manipulator 30 takes the disassembly wrench 46 as the center and makes the anti-torque blocking rod 43 close to the edge of the mechanism (the axial direction has overlapped);

[0088] The servo motor 44 is started under program control, and the disassembly wrench 46 connected to the output end of the multi-stage reducer 45 slowly loosens and unscrews the bolts under the rotation of the servo motor 44;

[0089] Finally, it is placed into the ground recovery frame by the robot;

[0090] Repeat the above process, unscrew the remaining two bolts, put them into the recovery frame, and the manipulator 30 swings the gripper body 41 back to the placement rack 20 and disengages it from the placement rack, and the process is completed;

[0091] If all the bolts on the tensioner are removed first, repeat the same action to remove all the bolts on the insulation board.

[0092] Step 2: Remove the outer nozzle and the tightener

[0093] Under the program instruction, the manipulator 30 connects the gripper body 2 51 placed on the placement rack 20 to its arm through the quick receiving plate, and aligns it with the center of the outer nozzle through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the outer nozzle and the outer diameter of the front end through the visual system;

[0094] The three claws of the hydraulic chuck 52 are driven by the hydraulic station so that the inner circle of the claws is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the front end of the outer water outlet;

[0095] The manipulator 30 moves along the axial direction of the outer water outlet until the three clamping claws are sleeved on the front end of the outer water outlet, and the clamping claws clamp the outer water outlet under the drive of the hydraulic station;

[0096] The manipulator 30 moves backwards, overcomes the bonding force between the outer water outlet and the outer slide plate, removes the tightener on the outer water outlet from the mechanism, and puts it into the ground recovery frame;

[0097] After the outer water inlet and the tensioner are removed, the internal process of the opening mechanism is followed, specifically: the door closing cylinder pulls the door frame to one side of the mounting plate, the second gripper body 51 opens the surface pressure hook, aligns it with the center of the anti-dropout pin assembly through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the anti-dropout pin assembly through the visual system, and removes the anti-dropout pin assembly through the clamping body 53;

[0098] The door closing cylinder releases the pulling force, and the second gripper body 51 opens the door frame outwards;

[0099] The robot 30 swings the gripper body 2 51 back onto the placement rack 20 and disengages from it, and the process is completed;

[0100] Step 3: Dismantle the skateboard

[0101] When the mechanism is opened and positioned, the manipulator 30 connects the gripper body 3 61 placed on the placement rack 20 to its arm through the quick connection plate under the program instruction, and aligns it with the center of the cavity of the mounting plate slide or the cavity hole of the sliding frame slide through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the cavity center hole, the plane position of the cavity bottom and the position of the slot hole on the cavity through the visual system;

[0102] The manipulator 30 moves forward along the axial direction of the center hole of the cavity until the pressure-bearing body 631 on the gripper body 3 61 is supported on the outer plane of the slide cavity. At this time, the movable hook body 64 has extended into the slot hole reserved at the edge of the cavity. At the same time, the extrusion block 641 acts on the slope surface of the side pressure block 81, forcing the blocking body 873 to detach from the side of the side pressure block 81. The cylinder 62 starts to work, pushing the front end of the movable hook body 64 to turn to the bottom of the slide and pry upward to overcome the adhesion between the bottom of the slide and the slide cavity. Then the movable hook body 64 continues to rotate so that the side surface clamps the slide inward, and the manipulator moves backward along the axial direction of the center hole of the cavity to remove the slide from the slide cavity and put it into the ground recovery frame.

[0103] The manipulator 30 swings the gripper body 3 61 back onto the placement rack 20 and disengages from it, and the process is completed;

[0104] Step 4: Slide frame removal

[0105] Under the program instruction, the manipulator 30 connects the gripper body 71 placed on the display rack 20 to its arm through the quick connection plate, and aligns its hook 72 with the cylinder latch on the sliding frame through theoretical positioning, and then measures the actual accurate position of the cylinder latch and the bottom surface position of the sliding frame through the visual system;

[0106] The manipulator 30 rotates so that its cross bar 73 is close to the bottom surface of the sliding frame, and the manipulator 30 moves so that its hook 72 coincides with the center of the oil cylinder latch on the sliding frame;

[0107] The manipulator 30 moves upward, overcomes the gravity of the sliding frame and the top tightening sleeve connected thereto, removes them from the mechanism together, and puts them into the specified position of the sliding frame on the display rack 20. The manipulator 30 swings the gripper body 71 back to the display rack 20 and disengages it from the gripper body 71, and the process is completed.

[0108] When reassembling, perform the reverse operations in sequence to complete the assembly process of the mechanism.
