[0002] At present, for steel plate grinding, multi-axis grinding equipment is usually used to grind one or both sides of the steel plate to achieve automation, improve efficiency and grinding quality. Existing multi-axis grinding equipment usually uses infrared to measure the thickness of the steel plate, and then adjusts the height of the grinding mechanism according to the thickness measurement result to ensure the grinding effect without causing a strong rigid collision between the grinding mechanism and the steel plate, so as to achieve the effect of protecting the grinding mechanism and the steel plate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0056] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and drawings, and the contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0057] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the fully automatic thickness measuring four-axis grinding machine provided by the present invention includes a body 1, a controller (not shown in the figure) and a transmission mechanism 2 all arranged on the body 1. Along the transmission direction of the transmission mechanism 2, the body 1 is also provided with a three-point thickness measuring mechanism 3, a first lower grinding mechanism 4, a first upper grinding mechanism 5, a second lower grinding mechanism 6 and a second upper grinding mechanism 7. The three-point thickness measuring mechanism 3 is used to sense the thickness of three positions of the steel plate. The first lower grinding mechanism 4, the first upper grinding mechanism 5, the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the second upper grinding mechanism 7 are respectively used to grind the two surfaces of the steel plate. The first lower grinding mechanism 4, the first upper grinding mechanism 5, the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the second upper grinding mechanism 7 are respectively provided with a height adjustment mechanism 8.

[0058] During operation, the steel plate is transmitted to the machine body 1 through the transmission mechanism 2, and the thickness of the steel plate is first detected at three positions by the three-point thickness measuring mechanism 3, and then the first lower grinding mechanism 4, the first upper grinding mechanism 5, the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the second upper grinding mechanism 7 are respectively adjusted by the corresponding height adjustment mechanism 8, so as to ensure that the steel plate can pass through and be ground smoothly, and the grinding safety and grinding quality are guaranteed; the ground steel plate is transported to the outside to proceed to the next step.

[0059] In this embodiment, the three-point thickness measuring mechanism 3 includes a thickness measuring frame 31 and three thickness measuring modules 32 arranged at intervals on the thickness measuring frame 31. The thickness measuring module 32 includes a contact roller 33, a thickness measuring sensor 34 and a telescopic mechanism 35. The contact roller 33 can be raised and lowered on the thickness measuring frame 31 through the telescopic mechanism 35. The thickness measuring sensor 34 is installed on the thickness measuring frame 31. The thickness measuring sensor 34 is used to sense the raising and lowering amplitude of the contact roller 33.

[0060] The action of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0061] The transmission mechanism transmits the steel plate;

[0062] The three contact rollers 33 respectively contact the three positions on the top of the steel plate, and the contact rollers 33 are forced to rise through the steel plate to trigger the thickness sensor 34;

[0063] The thickness sensor 34 sends a signal to the controller, and the controller calculates the thickness information of the steel plate at three locations;

[0064] According to the thickness information of the three positions of the steel plate, the heights of the first lower grinding mechanism 4, the first upper grinding mechanism 5, the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the second upper grinding mechanism 7 are adjusted accordingly.

[0065] In actual application, the length direction of the thickness measuring frame 31 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the steel plate, and the three thickness measuring modules 32 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the thickness measuring frame 31. When the steel plate is transmitted, the steel plate will pass through the three thickness measuring modules 32, and the contact rollers 33 of the three thickness measuring modules 32 will contact three positions of the steel plate respectively, and the contact position will continuously change with the transmission of the steel plate. The contact roller 33 rises due to the abutment of the steel plate, and the thickness measuring sensor 34 measures the amplitude of the rise of the contact roller 33. The thickness of the steel plate can be calculated in combination with the preset value, so that the thickness changes of the three positions of the steel plate in the transmission direction are measured and uploaded, ensuring that a more accurate thickness detail of the steel plate can be reliably obtained. In addition, since the present invention adopts mechanical contact to achieve the thickness measurement of the steel plate, the measurement accuracy will not be affected by particulate matter in the air.

[0066] In the above process, when the contact roller 33 contacts the steel plate, the contact roller 33 will be lifted up, but due to the influence of factors such as inertia and gravity, the contact roller 33 is in an unstable state. Therefore, after the height of the contact roller 33 changes to trigger the thickness measuring sensor 34, the present invention will obtain the signal change of the thickness measuring sensor 34 after t time has passed to ensure that the contact roller 33 is stable, so as to ensure the accuracy of the measured information.

[0067] Preferably, the time t can be set according to the actual component parameters, usually between 0.05-0.3s. When the contact roller 33 contacts the steel plate, the steel plate will stop for the above time t to allow the contact roller 33 to enter a steady state before continuing to move and transmit, so as to ensure that the contact roller 33 can measure the different regional positions of the corresponding position of the steel plate in the extension direction, so as to obtain the thickness parameters of the entire steel plate as much as possible through the cooperation of the three contact rollers 33.

[0068] In this embodiment, the telescopic mechanism 35 includes a rotating frame 351, an elastic member 352, a limit member 353 and a limit sleeve 354. The limit sleeve 354 is installed on the thickness measuring frame 31. The limit member 353 is movably arranged on the thickness measuring frame 31 and is located in the limit sleeve 354. The limit sleeve 354 is used to prevent the limit member 353 from detaching from the rotating frame 351. The bottom of the limit member 353 passes through the bottom of the thickness measuring frame 31 and is connected to the rotating frame 351. The elastic member 352 is arranged between the rotating frame 351 and the thickness measuring frame 31. The contact roller 33 is rotatably arranged on the rotating frame 351. The thickness measuring sensor 34 is used to sense the lifting and lowering amplitude of the rotating frame 351.

[0069] That is, the contact roller 33 is rotatably arranged on the rotating frame 351, so that the contact roller 33 can rotate with the transmission of the steel plate, thereby reducing the friction between the contact roller 33 and the steel plate, which is conducive to reducing wear. In this process, the elastic member 352 plays a maintaining role, that is, the elastic force ensures the stability of the contact roller 33, and prevents the contact roller 33 from jumping too much and affecting the measurement result.

[0070] The top of the stopper 353 is provided with an anti-separation cap 356, the width of which is greater than the inner diameter of the stopper sleeve 354, and is used to prevent the stopper 353 from separating from the stopper sleeve 354. Since the rotating frame 351 and the contact roller 33 are raised and lowered synchronously, the thickness sensor 34 actually measures the lifting range of the rotating frame 351, and the measurement result is more stable than measuring the lifting range of the rotating contact roller 33.

[0071] Preferably, the number of the limiting member 353 , the limiting sleeve 354 and the elastic member 352 is two, which can effectively ensure the stability of the thickness measuring module 32 .

[0072] Specifically, the elastic member 352 includes a spring, and the elastic member 352 is sleeved on one end of the stopper 353 protruding from the bottom of the thickness measuring frame 31, and the two ends of the elastic member 352 are respectively connected / contacted with the thickness measuring frame 31 and the rotating frame 351. That is, the elastic member 352 is directly sleeved on the stopper 353, which can better achieve the effect of buffering and holding.

[0073] Specifically, a triggering member 355 is disposed on the top of the rotating frame 351 , and the thickness measuring sensor 34 has a probe 341 . The probe 341 protrudes out of the bottom of the thickness measuring frame 31 , and the probe 341 is disposed opposite to the triggering member 355 .

[0074] The thickness sensor 34 is driven to rise by the trigger, which specifically includes:

[0075] The probe 341 of the thickness measuring sensor 34 is lifted up to the maximum stroke by the triggering member 355;

[0076] The probe 341 is continuously lifted up, and the probe 341 drives the thickness measuring sensor 34 to rise;

[0077] Obtaining the lifting height of the thickness measuring sensor 34, and then calculating the sum h of the maximum stroke of the probe 341 and the lifting height of the thickness measuring sensor 34;

[0078] Send h to the controller.

[0079] In actual use, the elastic member 352 is connected to a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure); when the thickness sensor 34 is lifted, the height to which the thickness sensor is lifted is obtained through the change in the pressure value of the pressure sensor.

[0080] The pressure sensor is preferably arranged between the elastic member 352 and the thickness measuring frame 31, that is, when the entire thickness measuring sensor 34 is lifted, the elastic member 352 will be squeezed to cause the elastic member 352 to deform, and the degree of deformation of the elastic member 352 is positively correlated with the pressure applied to the pressure sensor. Therefore, when the pressure value applied to the pressure sensor is greater than a certain value, it proves that the probe 341 has reached the maximum stroke. If the pressure value applied to the subsequent pressure sensor continues to rise, the thickness measuring sensor 34 is lifted. Since the height to which the thickness measuring sensor 34 is lifted is usually not large, and after the elastic member 352 is compressed to a certain extent, the pressure value changes greatly as the compression proceeds, the height to which the thickness measuring sensor 34 is lifted can be fed back with high precision through the subsequent pressure value changes of the pressure sensor, thereby ensuring accurate feedback of the thickness of the steel plate.

[0081] When the pressure value measured by the pressure sensor is greater than the preset threshold, an alarm signal is sent to the outside world. That is, when the pressure measured by the pressure sensor is too large, it proves that the thickness of the steel plate itself does not meet the requirements. At this time, an alarm needs to be issued to let the staff know this situation and determine whether the steel plate needs to be removed to ensure the safety of the subsequent grinding mechanism. The alarm method adopted by the present invention is to send an alarm signal to the outside world, and the external master control will buzz or other methods to remind the staff.

[0082] The thickness sensor 34 is preferably a contact sensor, and the thickness of the steel plate is inferred by the height of the probe 341 being forced to rise after being resisted. The trigger member 355 is preferably rotatably connected to the rotating frame 351, and the trigger member 355 of suitable height can be replaced according to the actual change of the steel plate to be measured, which improves the flexibility of the present invention.

[0083] In this embodiment, the controller calculates the thickness information of the steel plate at three positions, specifically including:

[0084] S1. The contact roller 33 continuously changes the position of contact with the steel plate as the steel plate moves;

[0085] S2. The height of the contact roller 33 changes continuously as the position of the contact roller 33 with the steel plate changes;

[0086] S3. The controller records the height change of the contact roller 33 and selects the maximum value h of the height of the contact roller 33. max With the minimum value h min ;

[0087] S4. Calculate the maximum value h max With the minimum value h min The difference h' is determined to determine whether h' is within the preset range; if so, the value h' is taken; otherwise, the maximum value h max , minimum value hmin , the position where the maximum value is measured and the position where the minimum value is measured are all recorded;

[0088] When the height change value of the contact roller 33 is less than △h, only the minimum value h is recorded. min ;

[0089] The value of the time t is a constant between 0.05-0.3s.

[0090] That is, due to the defects of the process, it is impossible for the thickness of the steel plate to be different at every location. Based on this problem, the present invention needs to measure the thickness of the steel plate at three different locations along the transmission direction of the steel plate. Therefore, for a contact roller 33, the thickness value measured for the steel plate must have a maximum value h max With the minimum value h min , and the two have an impact on the height change of the grinding mechanism: if the difference between the two is large, the grinding mechanism must be based on the maximum value h max With the minimum value h min To adjust the height, the positions of the two should be sent to the grinding mechanism. The thickness of the steel plate usually changes linearly rather than suddenly. Therefore, the grinding mechanism can adjust the height based on this principle and the maximum value h max With the minimum value h min The height is adjusted during the grinding process to ensure that the grinding mechanism will not be over-extruded with the steel plate and cause serious wear.

[0091] Specifically, in step S3, when the height change value of the contact roller 33 is less than Δh, only the minimum value h is sent. min That is, when the overall thickness of the steel plate does not change much, the height of the grinding mechanism can be adjusted only according to the minimum thickness of the steel plate, so that the grinding mechanism can keep the height of each position basically consistent after grinding the steel plate.

[0092] Since the present invention has three thickness measuring modules 2, the height change of the grinding mechanism is adjusted according to the signals sent by the three thickness measuring modules 2. Taking the above as an example, if the thickness of the steel plate measured by one of the contact rollers 3 does not change much, and at least one of the other two contact rollers 3 measures the maximum value h of the thickness of the steel plate max With the minimum value h min If the difference is greater than △h, the grinding mechanism needs to be adjusted in height during the grinding process according to the thickness change of the steel plate. When the thickness sensor of one of the thickness measuring modules 32 is lifted to a pressure sensor exceeding the threshold, an alarm signal is directly sent.

[0093] In this way, the reliability of the thickness measurement of the steel plate is ensured, and the grinding mechanism can maintain the optimal height for grinding the steel plate.

[0094] In this embodiment, the thickness measuring module 32 further includes a lifting seat 36 and a limit pin 37. The lifting seat 36 is provided with a lifting slot 361, and the thickness measuring frame 31 is provided with a lifting hole. The limit pin 37 passes through the lifting slot 361 and is installed in the lifting hole. The thickness measuring sensor 34 is installed on the lifting seat 36.

[0095] The thickness sensor 34 is used to contact with the probe 341 and is driven by the probe 341 to rise.

[0096] That is, the thickness sensor 34 is a floating structure. When the steel plate is within a certain thickness range, the lifting and lowering of the probe 341 will not affect the height change of the thickness sensor 34. When the thickness of a certain steel plate is too large and exceeds the stroke of the probe 341, the entire lifting seat 36 will be lifted up. At this time, the lifting of the lifting seat 36 can effectively avoid damage to the thickness sensor 34, thereby achieving the effect of floating protection of the thickness sensor 34.

[0097] Specifically, the lifting seat 36 has a limiting portion 362, and a limiting column 363 is arranged at the bottom of the limiting portion 362. The limiting column 363 is used to contact with the thickness measuring frame 31 to prevent the lifting seat 36 from descending too much. That is, the shape of the limiting portion 362 is similar to a "7"-shaped structure, and the limiting column 363 is arranged under the top of the "7" to limit the descending range of the lifting seat 36; and the limiting column 363 is preferably fixed to the limiting portion 362 by screws or threaded connection, so as to adjust the height of the limiting column 363 and replace the limiting column 363.

[0098] Specifically, the bottom of the limiting member 353 is screwed to the rotating frame 351 , and a suitable limiting member 353 can be replaced for use as needed.

[0099] The heights of the first lower grinding mechanism 4, the first upper grinding mechanism 5, the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the second upper grinding mechanism 7 are adjusted accordingly according to the thickness information of the three positions of the steel plate, specifically including:

[0100] A. Combine the thickness information of the three positions of the steel plate and select the total maximum and minimum values ​​of all thickness values;

[0101] B. Calculate the difference between the total maximum value and the total minimum value, and record it as the total difference;

[0102] C. adjusting the distance between the first lower grinding mechanism 4 and the transmission mechanism 2 to the sum of half of the total difference and the total minimum value;

[0103] D. adjusting the distance between the second upper grinding mechanism 5 and the transmission mechanism 2 to the total minimum value;

[0104] E. Calculate the difference between the pre-stored thickness and the total minimum value, and record it as the target difference;

[0105] F. adjusting the distance between the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the transmission mechanism 2 to the sum of the difference between the pre-stored thickness and the target thickness;

[0106] G. Adjust the distance between the second upper grinding mechanism 7 and the transmission mechanism 2 to the preset thickness.

[0107] For example, if the total maximum value is 11 cm, the minimum value is 10 cm, the total difference is 1 cm, and the preset thickness is 9 cm, then the target difference is 1 cm. Then the distance between the first lower grinding mechanism 4 and the transmission mechanism 2 is adjusted to 10.5 cm, the distance between the first upper grinding mechanism 5 and the transmission mechanism is adjusted to 10 cm, the distance between the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the transmission mechanism 2 is adjusted to 9.5 cm, and the distance between the second upper grinding mechanism 7 and the transmission mechanism 2 is adjusted to 9 cm. In this way, the steel plate is gradually ground from the initial thickness to the preset thickness by gradually reducing the thickness, ensuring that the thickness of the steel plate is not reduced too much each time by grinding, thereby ensuring the quality of grinding.

[0108] In this embodiment, the first lower grinding mechanism 4, the first upper grinding mechanism 5, the second lower grinding mechanism 6 and the second upper grinding mechanism 7 respectively have a grinding roller 41 and a driving module 42 for driving the grinding roller 41 to rotate. The height adjustment mechanism 8 includes a driving motor 81, a reducer 82, a transmission shaft 83 and two lifting reducers 84. The driving motor 81 is driven and connected to a lifting reducer 84 through the reducer 82. The transmission shaft 83 is connected between the two lifting reducers 84. Each lifting reducer 84 is driven and connected to a height adjustment seat 85. The height adjustment seat 85 is provided with a bearing seat 86. The two ends of the grinding roller 41 are respectively rotatably arranged on the bearing seats 86 of the two height adjustment modules. The linear drive component is connected to the three-point thickness measuring mechanism 3 by signal.

[0109] The height adjustment mechanism 8 is driven by a driving motor 81, which drives two lifting reducers 84 to perform the same action via a reducer 82, so that the lifting and lowering amplitudes of the two ends of the grinding roller 41 are basically consistent, thereby ensuring stability.

[0110] Specifically, the driving module 42 includes a rotating motor 421, a rotating belt 422, a swinging motor 423 and an eccentric transmission structure 424. The height adjustment seat 85 is provided with a guide rail 87, and the bearing seat 86 is slidably arranged on the guide rail 87; the rotating motor 421 drives one end of the grinding roller 41 through the rotating belt 422, and the swinging motor 423 drives the bearing seat 86 connected to the other end of the grinding roller 41 through the eccentric transmission structure 424.

[0111] During actual use, the swing motor 423 is installed on the bearing seat 86 .

[0112] That is, during grinding, the grinding roller 41 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 421 driving the rotating belt 422, thereby achieving the grinding effect on the steel plate. In order to achieve a better grinding effect, the present invention is further provided with a swing motor 423 and an eccentric transmission structure 424. The swing motor 423 drives the eccentric transmission mechanism to move back and forth along the length direction of the guide rail 87, that is, the grinding roller 41 not only rotates, but also moves in a direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the steel plate, so that the grinding roller 41 and the steel plate move relative to each other in more than one direction, which is conducive to improving the grinding effect.

[0113] The grinding roller 41 moves back and forth in a direction in which the desired effect can be achieved by generally forming a gap of less than 1 cm.

[0114] Specifically, the driving module 42 also includes a support base 425, a rotating motor 421 is installed on the support base 425, and the support base 425 is provided with multiple support shafts 426, which penetrate the support base 425; the part of the support shaft 426 located above the support base 425 and the part below the support base 425 are respectively provided with a first spring 427, and at least one second spring 428 is provided at the bottom of the support base 425.

[0115] That is, when the bearing seat 86 is raised or lowered, the tension of the rotating belt 422 will inevitably change. Compared with the prior art that adopts the tensioning wheel control method, the present invention adopts a support seat 425, that is, the first spring 427 and the second spring 428 of the support seat 425 cooperate to realize the tension control of the rotating belt 422: taking the height adjustment mechanism 8 driving the grinding roller 41 to rise as an example, when the grinding roller 41 rises, the rotating belt 422 will inevitably be pulled by the grinding roller 41, which is equivalent to the grinding roller 41 "pulling" the rotating motor 421 to rise through the rotating belt 422. At this time, the first spring 427 and the second spring 428 recover their deformation to a certain extent due to the reduction of the pressure from the rotating motor 421, thereby cooperating with the rotating belt 422 to lift the rotating motor 421 to a certain height, thereby achieving the effect of keeping the tension of the rotating belt 422 from changing too much.

[0116] Pressure sensors (not shown) are respectively provided at both ends of the grinding roller 41, and a clutch 88 is provided between the transmission shaft 83 and another lifting reducer 84;

[0117] The pressure sensor is used to sense the pressure on both ends of the grinding roller. When the pressure difference between the two ends exceeds a preset threshold, the following steps are performed:

[0118] Y1 determines the pressure at both ends of the grinding roller, such as the pressure near the drive motor 81 end is large, execute step Y2, otherwise execute step Y3;

[0119] Y2. The clutch is switched so that the transmission shaft 83 and the other lifting reducer 84 are no longer transmitted, and then the drive motor 81 drives a lifting reducer 84 through the reducer 82 to move the grinding roller 41 close to one end of the drive motor 81;

[0120] Y3. The drive motor 81 drives the two lifting reducers 84 through the reducer 82 to move simultaneously so that the grinding roller 41 is lifted, and then the clutch 88 switches the state so that the transmission shaft 83 and the other lifting reducer 84 are no longer transmitted, and the drive motor 81 drives one lifting reducer 84 to descend through the reducer 82;

[0121] The lifting height and the descending height are set according to the absolute value of the pressure difference at both ends.

[0122] The following phenomena may occur during actual operation: the thickness difference at different positions of the steel plate is too large, or the wear degree of the two ends of the grinding roller 41 is very different after use. In either case, it will affect the grinding of the steel plate. Therefore, when the grinding effect is very different (via the pressure value feedback at both ends of the grinding roller), the present invention uses the driving motor 81 and the clutch 88 to achieve different heights of the two height adjustment seats 85, so that there is a height difference at both ends of the grinding roller, and then the pressure difference at both ends of the grinding roller is within the preset range by means of height compensation, thereby ensuring the quality and effect of grinding.

[0123] Of course, the height difference between the two height adjustment seats 85 is positively correlated with the pressure difference at both ends of the grinding roller 41. The specific proportional relationship is related to factors such as the grinding roller performance and the steel plate thickness, and can be calculated according to actual conditions, which will not be elaborated here.

[0124] Specifically, after grinding a steel plate, the clutch switches state and the drive motor operates to adjust the heights of both ends of the grinding roller to be basically the same, and then the height of the grinding roller is adjusted according to the thickness of the next steel plate, thereby ensuring smooth grinding of the next steel plate.

[0125] Specifically, the machine body 1 is further provided with a liquid spraying mechanism 9 for spraying lubricating liquid on the steel plate, the liquid spraying mechanism 9 comprises a liquid infusion pipe 91 and n liquid spraying pipes 92, the n liquid spraying pipes 92 are all connected with the liquid infusion pipe 91, the liquid infusion pipe 91 is used for connecting an external liquid source, the output end of the liquid spraying pipe 92 extends into the machine body 1, the output end of the liquid spraying pipe 92 is installed with a spray head 93, and the spray head 93 is directly facing the grinding shaft;

[0126] n is an integer not less than 4.

[0127] As in this embodiment, n=8, that is, every two spray pipes 92 correspond to one grinding mechanism, and lubricating liquid is sprayed on the grinding roller 41 of the grinding mechanism through the spray head 93 of the spray pipe 92, so that the friction force at the contact position between the steel plate and the grinding roller 41 is reduced, thereby preventing the grinding roller 41 from wearing too quickly.

[0128] Specifically, the spray mechanism 9 also includes a recovery pipe 94. The bottom of the body 1 is inclined from the side to the middle. A collecting port is provided in the middle of the bottom of the body 1. The recovery pipe 94 is connected to the collecting port. The recovery pipe 94 is used to transfer the recovered lubricating liquid to an external liquid source.

[0129] The funnel-like structure at the bottom of the body 1 is utilized to guide the lubricating liquid dropped on the bottom of the body 1 to the collection port, and the lubricating liquid is recovered through the recovery pipe 94, thereby avoiding the lubricating liquid from being retained in the body 1 and realizing the recycling of the lubricating liquid.

[0130] In this embodiment, a plurality of limiting shafts 11 are disposed in the machine body 1 , and quick-release structures 12 are respectively disposed at both ends of the limiting shafts 11 , and the limiting shafts 11 are connected to the machine body 1 via the quick-release structures 12 .

[0131] The limit shaft 11 is used to cooperate with the grinding roller 41 to "clamp" the steel plate to ensure reliable grinding of the steel plate, and the assembly of the limit shaft 11 is achieved through the quick-release structure 12. The quick-release structure 12 can be a conventional structure or an attached structure. Fig. 9 The disclosed structure means that the staff only needs to pull and rotate the quick-release structure 12 to realize the assembly, fixation and disassembly of the limit shaft 11, thereby facilitating the replacement of the limit shaft 11 and improving the efficiency.
