Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of blast furnace metallurgical equipment, and particularly relates to a roll replacement device and method. Background Art
[0002] The plate and strip vertical rolling mill mainly controls the width of products in the hot rolling mill. The axes of its two rolls are perpendicular to the ground level. The driving method is mostly upper driving, and the motor and reducer are installed on the installation platform directly above the roll. The outlet of the reducer is connected to the roll through a universal joint shaft, so as to achieve power transmission. In this design form, when replacing the roll, the overhead crane cannot directly lift it. Separate tooling and construction methods are required to lift the roll, so as to achieve the replacement of the roll. The replacement time of the roll directly affects the output of the production line, so the faster the roll replacement, the better.
[0003] At present, the most commonly used scheme for replacing the roll is to design a special C-shaped hook. The overhead crane hangs the upper hook body of the C-shaped hook, and the lower hook body of the C-shaped hook extends into the shielding equipment. Through the structure of the C-shaped hook, the problem of lifting inside the equipment is solved. However, using the C-shaped hook has great disadvantages. One is that the C-shaped hook greatly reduces the lifting height of the lifted object and increases the replacement difficulty. The other is that when the weight of the object to be lifted is relatively large, the C-shaped hook will be relatively large, resulting in difficult hanging of the overhead crane hook, reducing the replacement efficiency, and the large C-shaped hook is difficult to store and also requires regular flaw detection inspection. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Embodiments
[0040] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0041] In addition, the present application may repeat reference numerals and / or reference letters in different examples.

In addition, the present application provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art may be aware of the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0042] To address the deficiencies of existing leak test equipment, the present application designs a new type of leak test equipment for adjustable pitch propeller shafts, which can simultaneously complete the leak tests of the inner oil pipes of each shaft section of the adjustable pitch propeller shaft system in the in-field in advance. This can save a large amount of time in the entire assembly process of the adjustable pitch propeller shaft, and save manpower and material resources.
[0043] One aspect of the present application provides a roll changing device, in combination with Figures 1-5 As shown, one aspect of the present invention provides a roll changing device, including a first lifting mechanism, a second lifting mechanism and a connecting mechanism. The first end of the first lifting mechanism is connected to the overhead crane hook 1; the first end of the second lifting mechanism is connected to the motor mounting platform 2 of the vertical mill; the second ends of the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism are both connected to the first end of the connecting structure, and the angle between the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism is adjustable. The second end of the connecting mechanism is connected to the roll 3 of the vertical mill.
[0044] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the first lifting mechanism includes a first lifting ring 4 and a connecting rope 5. The first lifting ring 4 is connected to the first end of the connecting mechanism; the first end of the connecting rope 5 is connected to the hook of the overhead crane, and the second end of the connecting rope 5 is connected to the first lifting ring 4. In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the second lifting mechanism includes a second lifting ring 6 and an electric chain hoist 7. The second lifting ring 6 is connected to the first end of the connecting mechanism; the first end of the electric chain hoist 7 is connected to the motor mounting platform 2, and the second end of the electric chain hoist 7 is connected to the second lifting ring 6.
[0045] In some embodiments, the first lifting ring 4 can be interchanged with the second lifting ring 6. That is, the connecting rope 5 can cooperate with the second lifting ring 6, and the electric chain hoist 7 can also cooperate with the first lifting ring 4.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 shown, the connecting mechanism includes a connecting shaft 8, a first connecting plate 9, a second connecting plate 10 and a locking portion. The first sling ring 4 and the second sling ring 6 are both sleeved on the connecting shaft 8, and the first sling ring 4 and the second sling ring 6 can rotate around the connecting shaft 8; the first ends of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10 are respectively fixed on both sides of the connecting shaft 8; the locking portion is detachably fixed on the second ends of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10.
[0047] In some embodiments, the locking portion includes a pin 11 and a lock nut 12.
[0048] In some embodiments, the locking portion can also adopt a pin 11 and a circlip structure to realize the shaft head fixing form. As long as the structure can ensure that the connecting plate will not come off the connecting shaft 8.
[0049] In some embodiments, the hook of the electric chain hoist 7 can be directly hooked on the connecting shaft 8 of the two sling rings, that is, in the middle of the first sling ring 4, without using the second sling ring 6, but there will be a situation where the extended center line of the hook does not coincide with the center line of the roll 3, resulting in the roll 3 being skewed and interfering with the mill housing during hoisting. And Figure 1 in, the center line of the roll 3 coincides with the center lines of the two sling rings, making the hoisting more stable and safe.
[0050] In some embodiments, the roll changing device further includes a platform fillet 13, and the platform fillet 13 is arranged on one side of the motor mounting platform 2 close to the overhead crane hook 1.
[0051] Another aspect of the present invention provides a roll changing method, including:
[0052] Step S1: Connect the above roll changing device to the roll 3;
[0053] Step S2: First lift the roll 3 with the electric chain hoist 7;
[0054] Step S3: Then lift the roll 3 by the overhead crane hook 1 to complete the replacement of the roll 3.
[0055] In some embodiments, in combination with Figures 1-5 shown, step S1 of connecting the roll changing device to the roll 3 includes:
[0056] Step S11: Sleeve the first sling ring 4 and the second sling ring 6 on the connecting shaft 8, and fixedly connect the first ends of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10 on both sides of the connecting shaft 8;
[0057] Step S12: Connect the first end of the connecting rope 5 to the overhead crane hook 1, and connect the second end of the connecting rope 5 to the first sling ring 4;
[0058] Step S13: Connect the first end of the electric chain hoist 7 to the motor mounting platform 2, and connect the second end of the electric chain hoist 7 to the second lifting ring 6;
[0059] Step S14: Push the roll 3 to the hoisting position by using the vertical roll to press down. The roll 3 is provided with a hoisting hole on the flat head for installing the replacement device. Insert the roll 3 onto the pin 11 through the hoisting hole. Both ends of the pin 11 are respectively connected to the second ends of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate, and are locked by the lock nut 12, which can realize the installation of the replacement device on the roll 3 quickly and safely.
[0060] Specifically, in some embodiments, in combination with Figure 3 As shown, the connecting rope 5 is made of steel wire rope. The first lifting ring 4 and the overhead crane hook 1 are connected by steel wire, and the steel wire rope is leaned against the platform fillet 13, so that the part of the steel wire rope between the platform fillet 13 and the overhead crane is perpendicular to the ground to prevent damage to the steel wire rope.
[0061] Specifically, in some embodiments, in combination with Figure 3 As shown, since the vertical mill motor reducer is installed on the vertical mill reducer motor mounting platform 2, the overhead crane hook 1 cannot directly hoist the roll 3. Therefore, an electric chain hoist 7 is installed below the vertical mill reducer motor mounting platform 2 directly above the hoisting position of the roll 3.
[0062] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 4 As shown, when the electric chain hoist 7 hoists the roll 3, when the roll 3 is higher than the vertical mill housing and the connecting rope 5 is completely vertical without interfering with the surrounding equipment, the electric chain hoist 7 stops running.
[0063] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 5 As shown, when the electric chain hoist 7 stops running, simultaneously raise the overhead crane hook 1 to tighten the connecting rope 5, and then lower the electric chain hoist 7 so that the roll 3 is completely supported by the overhead crane hook 1, and disconnect the connection between the electric chain hoist 7 and the second lifting ring 6, thereby realizing the hoisting out of the roll 3.
[0064] The steps for installing a new roll 3 are opposite to the steps for replacing and hoisting out the roll 3 above. The roll replacement device provided by this application can be extended to the replacement of the roll 3 of the same type of strip vertical roll mill.

[0067] 2. In this application, by setting the lifting point of the electric chain hoist in the second lifting mechanism above the roll replacement position, the roll can be vertically lifted from within the vertical mill housing, ensuring smooth lifting, improving the roll replacement efficiency, avoiding damage to the roll caused by bumps during lifting, and guaranteeing the safety of the lifting process.
[0068] 3. Through the structural design of the pin and lock nut in this application, the roll can be safely and quickly installed.
