Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steel rolling, and in particular relates to a special lead-in coiling device for steel rolling. Background Art

[0002] As an important pillar industry of the national economy, the steel industry has always received much attention for its production efficiency and safety. In the steel production process, the coiling of strip steel is a crucial link, especially the application of vertical coilers, which greatly improves the coiling efficiency. However, the existing vertical coiling technology still has some problems in the process of feeding the head of the steel strip into the coil core.

[0003] At present, many steel companies still rely on manual operation when coiling strip steel. Operators need to hold steel pliers and guide and bend the head of the steel strip in a high temperature environment to feed the head of the steel strip into the coiling core. This operation method is not only labor-intensive, but also has great safety hazards due to the high temperature of the operating environment and the high temperature of the steel strip. Manual operation is also prone to operating errors, affecting production efficiency and product quality.

[0004] In view of the above problems, it is necessary to develop a new type of dedicated lead core device for rolling steel coils, which can replace the fixed narrow slit lead with the automatic opening and closing of the core petals of the coil, and the opening is much larger than the traditional narrow slit, which can guide and bend the head of the steel strip without manual work, ensuring that the steel strip can be accurately and efficiently fed into the coil core, thereby reducing labor intensity and improving operation safety and production efficiency. Through technological innovation, the automation and intelligence of the steel strip coiling process can be further realized, which is of great significance to improving the overall level of steel production.

The special lead winding core device for rolling steel coils is not only simple in structure and low in cost, but also can significantly improve production efficiency and reduce manual labor intensity and operation risks.

[0028] The present invention relates to a coiling device for rolled steel. Its core components include a plurality of key devices installed on the base of a rotating platform. These devices obtain rotational power through a speed reducer gear device, enabling the entire rotating platform base to perform rotational motion. When the rotating platform base starts to rotate, the core, core petals, spline shaft, and sliding key device will rotate synchronously, thus realizing the coiling function. In addition, the base of the lifting hydraulic cylinder group is fixed to the equipment foundation. It does not rotate with the rotation of the equipment but specifically provides lifting power.

They can rotate synchronously and also slide independently to complete their respective functions. The spline shaft slides along the spline hole at the axis of the platform base, synchronously driving the core to complete the lifting function, while the sliding key device slides up and down relative to the spline shaft to complete the opening and closing function of the core petals, which is the main component for realizing efficient head leading. The ball head link assembly connects the core petals and the sliding key device at the same time. It converts the sliding displacement of the sliding key device into the opening and closing displacement of the core petals, which is the core component with multi-angle adaptive function in the whole device. The core petal cylinder group and the spline bracket together form the actuator for the sliding key device to slide up and down relative to the spline shaft. The spline bracket is connected to the end of the sliding key device through a rolling bearing, ensuring that it only provides lifting power without rotating with the equipment. The innovation of the present invention lies in being able to effectively solve the technical problems such as difficult head leading and low efficiency in the traditional tight coiling process, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of the entire coiling process.
