Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of metal plate processing, and in particular to a steel plate correction device and method for processing LNG storage tanks. Background Art

[0002] Liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks are key equipment for storing and transporting LNG. Their manufacturing quality is directly related to energy security and service life. LNG storage tanks usually use high-strength steel plates. Since the steel plates may be affected by external forces or temperature changes during transportation, storage or processing, the steel plates may bend, twist or partially deformed. Especially after cutting, the edges of the steel plates will produce large deformations, so the steel plates need to be corrected.

[0003] Currently, the commonly used correction device is a roller press, which flattens and corrects the steel plate by rotating the upper and lower rollers of the roller press. Publication No. CN111014347B discloses a hydraulic two-roller correction device and its use method, which includes an upper roller and a lower roller parallel to each other, and the upper roller is equipped with a plurality of upper pressure wheels, and the lower roller is equipped with a lower pressure wheel corresponding to the position between the adjacent upper pressure wheels of the upper roller; the lower roller is connected to a hydraulic motor system, and the hydraulic motor system can drive the lower roller to rotate so that the steel plate welding component placed between the upper roller and the lower roller moves forward, and the upper pressure wheel applies downward pressure to the steel plate welding component to achieve welding deformation correction.

[0004] The above-mentioned correction equipment solves the problem that the existing technology uses a press for segmented correction, which easily causes indentations on the steel plate and has low working efficiency of segmented correction. It can effectively correct welding deformation of steel plates, avoid indentations caused by steel plate correction, and is easy to operate, fast and efficient.

[0005] When the above-mentioned correction equipment and the existing correction device are used in practice, since the lengths of the upper and lower pressure rollers are fixed, while the width and length of the steel plate are not fixed values, the steel plate is inserted between the upper and lower pressure rollers during the correction process, and the steel plate is driven to move between the upper and lower pressure rollers by the rotation of the upper and lower pressure rollers. Since the steel plate has a certain degree of deformation, and the friction between the steel plate and the upper and lower pressure rollers is different, and the friction between the steel plate and various parts of the upper and lower pressure rollers is also different, the friction force is used to drive the steel plate to move, and there is a situation where the friction force is uneven, causing the steel plate to shift between the upper and lower pressure rollers. This will lead to a reduction in the correction effect, and it is easy to cause local over-correction or under-correction, and the correction stability is poor.

[0006] Therefore, a new type of steel plate correction device and method for LNG storage tank processing can be used to solve the shortcomings of the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0017] The present invention also provides a steel plate correction method for LNG storage tank processing, comprising the above-mentioned steel plate correction device for LNG storage tank processing, and further comprising the following steps: S1. First, insert the end of the steel plate after welding or cutting on one side between the rotating roller and the correction roller, and use the unwelded or uncut side as the reference side for steel plate correction. Correct the cut or welded side, adjust the height of the correction roller, make the distance between the correction roller and the rotating roller equal to the thickness of the steel plate, and then adjust the height of the support block by adjusting the assembly, so that the support block is against the bottom of the steel plate to support the bottom of the steel plate; S2, then the limit frame is driven to rotate around the frame through the constant pressure component, so that the limit rollers on the limit frame are against the two sides of the steel plate to limit the steel plate; S3.

[0019] 2. When the steel plate correction device is correcting the edge of the steel plate, a support unit is set to support the steel plate that has not entered the correction unit, so as to avoid the front end of the steel plate being suspended in the air and causing the correction component to be subjected to a large torque, thereby improving the correction efficiency.

[0020] 3. When correcting the edge of the steel plate, the steel plate correction device provides auxiliary support for the steel plate by setting up a support mechanism to improve the stability of the steel plate when moving. At the same time, it cooperates with the detection mechanism to detect the degree of deformation of the steel plate. The pressure of the correction roller on the steel plate is controlled by the second sensor to improve the accuracy of the correction.

[0021] To sum up, when correcting the edge of the steel plate, the present invention can not only limit the two sides of the steel plate to keep the steel plate at a stable level and enter the correction unit for correction, but also use the supporting unit to support the steel plate, and can automatically change the supporting position according to the shape of the steel plate to ensure that the bottom height of the steel plate remains constant when entering the correction unit for correction, thereby improving the correction quality. In addition, the degree of deformation of the edge of the steel plate can be detected before detection, and the steel plate can be subjected to different degrees of pressure correction according to the degree of deformation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-Figure 2 A steel plate straightening device for LNG storage tank processing includes a steel plate 1 and a frame 5, and also includes a straightening unit 2, a supporting unit 3 and a limiting unit 4 installed on the frame 5.

[0026] The correction unit 2 is used to correct the steel plate 1, and the support unit 3 is used to support the part of the steel plate 1 that has not entered the correction unit 2, so that the steel plate 1 can maintain stable movement with a constant bottom height; the limiting unit 4 is used to limit the steel plate 1 to the left and right to prevent the steel plate 1 from shifting, and at the same time it can also detect the degree of deformation of the edge of the steel plate 1, and adjust the pressure and correct it according to the detection.

[0027] Embodiment 2: This embodiment is different from the embodiment 1 in that: Figure 3-Figure 4The straightening unit 2 includes two rotating rollers 6 rotatably mounted on a frame 5 and a plurality of straightening rollers 7 that can be raised and lowered. The rotating rollers 6 drive the steel plate 1 to move, and the straightening rollers 7 straighten the moving steel plate 1. The straightening unit 2 also includes a driving component that cooperates with the rotating rollers 6.

[0028] Two correction hydraulic cylinders 8 are fixedly installed on the frame 5, and a plate slidably connected to the frame 5 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the two correction hydraulic cylinders 8. Each correction roller 7 is rotationally connected to the two plates, and a first pressure sensor is installed between the telescopic end of the correction hydraulic cylinder 8 and the plate.

[0029] When the steel plate 1 moves between the rotating roller 6 and the correcting roller 7, the edge of the steel plate 1 is deformed, and the distance between the rotating roller 6 and the correcting roller 7 is locked and fixed by the correcting hydraulic cylinder 8, so the edge deformation will be corrected under the extrusion effect. During correction, the rotating roller 6 will rotate under the action of the friction between the steel plate 1.

[0030] During the correction process, the first pressure sensor can be used to control the pressing force of the correction roller 7 on the steel plate 1, so as to correct the steel plates 1 with different thicknesses and hardnesses, thereby expanding the scope of application.

[0031] The driving assembly includes a first motor 9 fixedly mounted on a frame 5, a reducer 13 being connected to a driving end of the first motor 9, a second gear 11 being fixedly mounted on a driving end of the reducer 13, a first gear 10 being fixedly mounted on each of the two rotating rollers 6, a third gear 12 being rotatably mounted on the frame 5 and meshing with the two first gears 10, and the second gear 11 being meshed with one of the first gears 10.

[0032] After the driving end of the first motor 9 is decelerated by the reducer 13, it will drive the second gear 11 to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 11 drives the first gear 10 meshing with it to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 10 will drive another first gear 10 to rotate through the third gear 12, thereby driving the two rotating rollers 6 to rotate in the same direction at the same time, thereby driving the steel plate 1 to move between the rotating roller 6 and the correction roller 7.

[0033] The reducer 13 is used to reduce the rotation speed of the driving end of the first motor 9. The low rotation speed has the advantage of low vibration amplitude, which makes the rotating roller 6 rotate more stably and improves the correction quality. At the same time, the reducer 13 has the function of increasing the torque, which increases the driving torque of the first motor 9 and makes it easier to drive the steel plate 1 to move.

[0034] Embodiment 3: This embodiment is different from the technical solution of Embodiment 2 in that: Figure 2 , Figure 5-Figure 6The supporting unit 3 includes two supporting frames 14 fixedly mounted on the frame 5 and a plurality of supporting blocks 20 mounted on the corresponding supporting frames 14 for supporting the steel plate 1. An adjusting component is installed between the two supporting frames 14 and the corresponding plurality of supporting blocks 20.

[0035] There are two supporting units 3, which are respectively located on both sides of the frame 5. The two supporting units 3 can be operated and adjusted independently to ensure that the moving height of the steel plate 1 is stable.

[0036] The adjustment assembly includes a plurality of sliding sleeves 24 slidably mounted on the support frame 14 through a sliding rod 23, and a range adjustment mechanism matched with the plurality of sliding sleeves 24 is mounted on the support frame 14; The range adjustment mechanism includes a spacing adjustment plate 15 slidably mounted on the support frame 14, and a plurality of guide grooves are provided on the spacing adjustment plate 15. A rotating column matching the corresponding guide groove is rotatably mounted on each sliding sleeve 24. A first electric push rod 16 is fixedly mounted on the spacing adjustment plate 15, and the telescopic end of the first electric push rod 16 is fixedly connected to the support frame 14.

[0037] In order to reduce the probability of scratches on the steel plate 1, multiple support blocks 20 are required to support the steel plate 1 at the same time (the more the number of support points, the smaller the support strength of a single support point, so all the support blocks 20 support at the same time, the steel plate 1 has the most support points, and at this time the pressure between each support block 20 and the steel plate 1 is the smallest), and different steel plates 1 have different widths, so in order to meet the needs of steel plates 1 of different widths, the horizontal position of the support block 20 needs to be adjusted, and the specific operation is as follows: Start the first electric push rod 16, which drives the spacing adjustment plate 15 to move on the support frame 14. The movement of the spacing adjustment plate 15 will drive the rotating column to move through the guide groove, so that all the sliding sleeves 24 can move synchronously on the sliding rod 23, thereby driving the support block 20 to move through the cross frame 17 and the sliding rod 19. The guide groove on the spacing adjustment plate 15 can be customized as needed, and can be customized to make all the sliding sleeves 24 move synchronously and equidistantly, or can be customized to move synchronously and unequally, so as to ensure that all the support blocks 20 are against the bottom of the steel plate 1.

[0038] A cross frame 17 is fixedly installed on each sliding sleeve 24, a limiting ring 18 is fixedly installed on each cross frame 17, a sliding rod 19 is slidably installed on each limiting ring 18, and each sliding rod 19 is fixedly connected to the corresponding support block 20. A two-way telescopic plate is commonly fixedly installed on the two limiting rings 18 in the middle, a second electric push rod 22 is fixedly installed in the middle part of the two-way telescopic plate, a cross bar 21 is commonly fixedly installed on multiple sliding rods 19, and the telescopic end of the second electric push rod 22 is fixedly connected to the cross bar 21.

[0039] The telescopic end of the second electric push rod 22 drives the cross bar 21 to rise and fall, thereby driving the multiple slide bars 19 to slide on the limit ring 18, thereby changing the height of the support block 20 on the top of the slide bar 19, so that the support block 20 is against the bottom of the steel plate 1 to support the steel plate 1 (a sensor is installed on the second electric push rod 22, which can adjust the height of the support block 20 in real time according to the bottom position of the steel plate 1); A ball is rotatably mounted on the end of the support block 20 to reduce the friction between the support block 20 and the steel plate 1, so that the steel plate 1 slides more smoothly on the support block 20 and reduces the probability of scratches on the steel plate 1.

[0040] Embodiment 4: This embodiment is different from the technical solution of embodiment 3 in that: Figure 1-Figure 2 , Figure 7-Figure 12 The limiting unit 4 has two groups, which are respectively located on both sides of the frame 5, and include two limiting frames 25 installed on the frame 5. A limiting roller 31 matching the steel plate 1 is rotatably installed on the two limiting frames 25. The limiting roller 31 is wrapped with a rubber ring on the outside, which not only increases the friction between the steel plate 1 and provides a greater moving thrust, but also protects the edge of the steel plate 1 to prevent the edge of the steel plate 1 from further deformation; A second motor 29 matched with a limiting roller 31 is fixedly mounted on the limiting frame 25, and the steel plate 1 is limited by two limiting rollers 31. A constant pressure component matched with the limiting frame 25 is mounted on the frame 5. The limit frame 25 is retractable, and the limit roller 31 is installed at its retractable end. A second cylinder 30 is fixedly installed on the limit frame 25 for retracting the limit frame 25 and changing the position of the limit roller 31, which is suitable for clamping and limiting steel plates 1 of different widths.

[0041] The second motor 29 will drive the limiting roller 31 to rotate. The linear rotation direction of the contact part between the limiting roller 31 and the steel plate 1 is the same as the moving direction of the steel plate 1. It not only has the function of limiting the two sides of the steel plate 1, but also can provide a certain thrust for the movement of the steel plate 1, and cooperates with the rotating roller 6 to make the steel plate 1 move more stably and smoothly.

[0042] The constant pressure assembly includes a hydraulic rod 26 rotatably mounted on the frame 5, the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 26 is rotatably connected to the limit frame 25, a second pressure sensor is fixedly mounted on the limit frame 25, the limit roller 31 is rotatably connected to the second pressure sensor, and the second pressure sensor is used to control the hydraulic rod 26.

[0043] The movement of the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 26 will drive the limit frame 25 to rotate around the axis rotatably connected to the frame 5, thereby changing the lateral position of the limit roller 31 on the limit frame 25, and also changing the longitudinal position of the limit roller 31. The change in the lateral position can clamp and lock the steel plate 1 at a constant pressure, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the steel plate 1.

[0044] The second pressure sensor senses the pressure between the limiting roller 31 and the steel plate 1, and then controls the hydraulic rod 26 to change its length, thereby effectively avoiding the situation where the edge deformation of the steel plate 1 is aggravated due to excessive pressure, and also avoiding the situation where the steel plate 1 is slightly offset due to insufficient pressure, thereby improving the stability of the correction of the steel plate 1.

[0045] A support detection assembly 32 is installed on the limiting roller 31; The support detection assembly 32 is composed of a support mechanism and a detection mechanism, the detection mechanism is located at the upper part of the limiting roller 31, and the support mechanism is located at the lower part of the limiting roller 31. The support mechanism and the detection mechanism both include two first fixed rings 33 fixedly mounted on the limiting roller 31, and a plurality of telescopic rods 1 34 are fixedly mounted on the two first fixed rings 33, and a first telescopic rod 35 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of each telescopic rod 1 34, and a limiting stopper 36 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of each first telescopic rod 35. A second fixed ring 38 is slidably mounted on the limiting roller 31, and a plurality of telescopic rods 2 37 are fixedly mounted on the second fixed ring 38, and the telescopic end of each telescopic rod 2 37 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the corresponding first telescopic rod 35, and two groups of expansion structures matching the telescopic ends of the corresponding telescopic rods 1 34 are installed on the limiting frame 25; There are two second fixing rings 38 in both groups of position limiting units 4, and a plurality of laser receivers are fixedly mounted on the two second fixing rings 38 in one group of position limiting units 4, and a plurality of laser transmitters are fixedly mounted on the two second fixing rings 38 in the other group of position limiting units 4. When the support mechanism is adjusted, the heights of the two groups of position limiting blocks 36 on both sides are controlled by calibrating the laser and the laser receiver to ensure that the heights of the two groups of position limiting blocks 36 on both sides are consistent (the position limiting blocks 36 here are the position limiting blocks 36 located in the support mechanism); The function of the laser transmitter and the laser receiver in the detection mechanism is to determine the degree of edge deformation of the steel plate 1 by utilizing the change of the laser on the laser receiver during detection.

[0046] When the limiting roller 31 rotates, it will drive the first fixed ring 33 and the second fixed ring 38 to rotate, thereby driving multiple limiting blocks 36 to rotate around the limiting roller 31, and each limiting block 36 will pass through the upper surface or lower surface of the steel plate 1. The limiting block 36 located on the upper surface of the steel plate 1 is used to detect the degree of deformation of the edge of the steel plate 1 (when the steel plate 1 is deformed, the limiting block 36 located on the upper part of the steel plate 1 will move along the deformed surface of the steel plate 1, and the movement of the limiting block 36 will drive the second fixed ring 38 to move through the telescopic rod 2 37, thereby driving the laser transmitter on the second fixed ring 38 to move, and the other end of the steel plate 1 is not cut or welded, so the other end of the steel plate 1 is flat, and the position of the laser receiver located at the other end remains unchanged, so the laser receiver receives the laser emitted by the laser transmitter at a different position, and a controller is installed in the laser receiver to control the correction), the limiting block 36 located on the lower surface of the steel plate 1 is used to support the lower part of the steel plate 1, and is used in conjunction with the supporting unit 3; The laser receiver is in the shape of a flat plate, and the laser transmitter is a point-shooting device. Once the laser transmitter changes its position, the position of the laser emitted by the laser transmitter on the laser receiver changes. The greater the position change, the greater the deformation. The controller will control the lifting distance of the correction hydraulic cylinder 8 according to the distance of the position change. When the deformation of the steel plate 1 is larger, the higher the correction hydraulic cylinder 8 is lifted, and it is pressed from top to bottom for preliminary correction. The larger the deformation, the greater the required pressing force, so different pressure corrections are performed. After pressing, it is reciprocated between the rotating roller 6 and the correction roller 7 for correction. The purpose of pressing for preliminary correction is to reduce the deformation of the steel plate 1 and avoid distortion of the deformation position due to excessive deformation, which will not only fail to correct but also cause distortion.

[0047] The expansion structure includes a guide plate 27 rotatably mounted on the limit frame 25, a circular hole is opened in the middle of the guide plate 27, which is sleeved on the limit roller 31, and a non-circular groove is opened on the guide plate 27. Each telescopic rod 34 telescopic end is rotatably mounted with a column matching the non-circular groove, and an orientation locking component matching the guide plate 27 is installed on the frame 5.

[0048] As the limit stop block 36 rotates, the telescopic rod 34 also rotates. Due to the non-circular groove on the guide plate 27 and the telescopic end column of the telescopic rod 34, the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 34 will move during the rotation of the telescopic rod 34, and the corresponding limit stop block 36 will be pushed away from the original circular running track. The purpose of this design is to increase the travel of the limit stop block 36 that contacts the steel plate 1 on the steel plate 1. The larger the travel, the more accurate the degree of edge deformation of the steel plate 1 can be detected.

[0049] refer to Figure 7-Figure 8The orientation locking component includes a first cylinder 28 rotatably mounted on the frame 5, a cylinder is rotatably mounted on the telescopic end of the first cylinder 28, a column sleeve matching the cylinder is fixedly mounted on the guide plate 27, and the distance between the center axis of the column sleeve and the center axis of the limiting roller 31 is equal to the distance between the center axis of the first cylinder 28 rotatably connected to the frame 5 and the center axis of the hydraulic rod 26 rotatably connected to the frame 5.

[0050] As the limit frame 25 rotates, the guide plate 27 will be driven to rotate around the axis of rotation connection between the limit frame 25 and the frame 5. At this time, the angle of the guide plate 27 will change. In order to fix the angle of the guide plate 27 and make the protruding position of the guide plate 27 always remain perpendicular to the side of the steel plate 1, the rotation connection point between the limit frame 25 and the frame 5 is set to B, the rotation connection point between the first cylinder 28 and the frame 5 is set to C, the center point of the column sleeve is set to D, and the center point of the limit roller 31 is set to E. The figure surrounded by BCDE is a parallelogram, and the total length of the first cylinder 28 (after extension) is the same as the total length of the limit frame 25 after extension. In this way, it can be ensured that the protruding part of the guide plate 27 is always perpendicular to the side of the steel plate 1.

[0051] A screw adjustment component 39 is installed between the first fixing ring 33 and the second fixing ring 38 in the support mechanism, and is used to adjust the height of the second fixing ring 38; The screw adjustment component 39 is a common height adjustment structure, which can be adjusted electrically or manually. Its specific structure and specific adjustment method are not further elaborated here. Its function is to adjust the distance between the first fixing ring 33 and the second fixing ring 38.

[0052] An elastic component 40 is installed between the first fixing ring 33 and the second fixing ring 38 in the detection mechanism, and is used to reset the second fixing ring 38 so that the limiting stopper 36 on the second fixing ring 38 always abuts against the steel plate 1.

[0053] The elastic component 40 is an elastic return spring. Under the action of the elastic component 40, the limit stop block 36 on the detection mechanism will always be against the upper surface of the steel plate 1 (a rolling ball that cooperates with the steel plate 1 is rotatably installed at the end of the limit stop block 36 to reduce the friction between the steel plate 1).

[0054] The specific operation steps of this device are as follows: First, insert the end of the steel plate 1 after welding or cutting on one side between the rotating roller 6 and the correction roller 7, and use the unwelded or uncut side as the reference side for steel plate correction. Correct the cut or welded side, and adjust the height of the correction roller 7 by the correction hydraulic cylinder 8 so that the spacing between the correction roller 7 and the rotating roller 6 is equal to the thickness of the steel plate 1. Then, adjust the height of the support block 20 by adjusting the assembly so that the support block 20 is against the bottom of the steel plate 1, and adjust the support range of multiple support blocks 20 by the range adjustment mechanism in the adjustment assembly to ensure that all support blocks 20 are located below the steel plate 1 to support the bottom of the steel plate 1. Then, the hydraulic rod 26 is started, and the telescopic end moves to drive the limit frame 25 to rotate around the frame 5, so that the limit rollers 31 on the limit frame 25 abut against the two sides of the steel plate 1. If the width of the steel plate 1 is short, the second cylinder 30 needs to be started at this time. The second cylinder 30 will adjust the length of the limit frame 25 to ensure that the length of the limit frame 25 is greater than the distance from the edge of the steel plate 1 to the edge of the frame 5, so that the limit rollers 31 on the limit frame 25 abut against the side of the steel plate 1 to limit the steel plate 1; Finally, the rotating roller 6 is driven to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating roller 6 drives the steel plate 1 to move, so that the steel plate 1 moves between the rotating roller 6 and the correction roller 7 for correction. While moving, the second motor 29 drives the limiting roller 31 to rotate, and is used in conjunction with the rotating roller 6 to push the steel plate 1. At the same time, the support detection component 32 will detect the edge of the steel plate 1, and the pressure of the correction roller 7 on the steel plate 1 is controlled according to the detection, so that the correction is more accurate.

Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
