Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of strip steel riveting, and particularly relates to a color-coated strip steel riveting device and a butt joint method using the same. BACKGROUND

[0002] Riveting of color-coated strip steel is an important operation technology of a color-coated strip production line. Defects such as zinc residue, holes, scratches and color difference on the surface of the color-coated strip steel are removed and divided into rolls, and defects such as uncut edges. These color-coated rolls with defects need to be re-wound, coated, drawn, and cut by the edge unit for removal. At the same time, riveting technology is widely used in the butt joint of color-coated strip steel in the continuous production line. When the color-coated plate is butt jointed by riveting, the surface of the strip steel is covered with zinc layer and coating, the melting point of zinc is about 420 DEG C, and the boiling point is about 907 DEG C, which is difficult to handle. A large amount of heat energy is generated on the surface of the hot-dip galvanized strip steel during welding, and the zinc layer is evaporated first, a large amount of heat is taken away by the evaporation of the zinc layer, so that the remaining heat cannot penetrate the strip steel, and the effective fusion kernel size cannot be formed; when the welding current is increased, the heat energy is too high, and the high-pressure zinc vapor volatilization easily leads to the appearance of serious porosity and cavity defects on the surface of the thin galvanized strip steel (thickness ≤0.8mm), and the stable welding quality cannot be formed; at the same time, the volatilization of zinc vapor leads to the adhesion of a large amount of zinc powder on the surface of the welding wheel, so that the surface of the welding wheel is seriously scabbed, the heat conduction, electrical conductivity and heat dissipation performance of the welding wheel are greatly reduced, the welding performance of the galvanized strip steel is deteriorated, the effective welding of the galvanized strip steel welding quality cannot be realized, and the welding performance of the welding machine equipment is further affected, and re-welding cannot be realized. In addition, part of the paint on the surface of the color-coated strip steel has the characteristic of insulation, so that obvious defects are generated during the stitching of the strip steel by using the conventional spot welding operation, and the quality cannot be guaranteed.

[0003] An application patent with application number CN201910564326.X and name of a strip steel stitching machine tool is retrieved, which comprises a rack, an upper punching mechanism, a lower punching mechanism and a flattening mechanism. The application adopts a cold working punching mode to stitch the strip steel, and realizes punching and flanging and flattening through a servo motor and an electric cylinder. No light, heat, noise and smoke pollution is generated during the machining process, no pressure fluid is needed, and the on-site applicability is stronger. Different specifications and sizes of the upper punching head, the lower punching head and the flattening head can be selected and switched according to the minimum bending radius of the stitched strip steel on the roll equipment in the production line during stitching, so that riveting is realized while the strip steel is prevented from leaving scratches on the roll surface. The application has a certain improvement on the flatness of the strip steel, but cannot solve the butt joint problem caused by the fact that the surface of the strip steel is covered with zinc layer and coating. Therefore, the existing riveting device needs to be improved, and the butt joint method needs to be optimized. SUMMARY

[0009] Further, the front centering platform and the rear centering platform each center the strip steel by a centering abutment plate, and the centering action is completed by the quick closing and opening of the centering abutment plate.

[0010] A butt joint method of color coated strip steel, comprising the following steps:

[0011] S1, precisely cutting a strip head section strip steel and a strip tail section strip steel;

[0012] S2, the merging pinch roll sends the front end of the strip tail section strip steel into the strip tail pinch roll and the strip tail pick-up sleeve, and the tail end of the strip tail section strip steel stops advancing after passing through a strip tail first detection position located in front of the front centering platform; the strip tail pinch roll continues to send the strip tail section strip steel forward until the tail end of the strip tail section strip steel passes through a strip tail second detection position located in front of a feeding port of the stitching machine and stops; the strip tail pinch roll stops sending the strip, and at the same time, the driving cylinder has lifted the strip tail pick-up sleeve;

[0013] S3, the merging pinch roll sends the strip head section strip steel forward to a strip head detection position located at the outlet of the front centering platform, starts to record the meter and continues to send the strip head section strip steel forward by a preset length and then stops; at this time, the front end of the strip head section strip steel enters the stitching machine and overlaps with the tail end of the strip tail section strip steel above the lower die;

[0014] S4, the front and rear centering platforms push the center lines of the head and tail sections of the strip to the center of the production line according to the preset width of the strip, thereby completing the centering action;

[0015] S5, the lower die of the seaming machine is lifted by the hydraulic cylinder to perform the riveting action, and returns automatically when reaching the set pressure and contacting the upper limit travel switch, thereby completing the first riveting action to obtain a plurality of riveting holes in the shape of a trapezoid with two waists being fold lines; when the thickness of the seamed strip is less than 0.35 mm, secondary riveting is required, the front and rear centering platforms are opened, and the overlapped head and tail sections of the strip are continuously transported forward by a lap distance, and after the transport is completed, secondary centering and second riveting action are performed, and again a plurality of riveting holes in the shape of a trapezoid with two waists being fold lines are obtained;

[0016] S6, after the riveting action is completed, the front and rear centering platforms are opened, the tail pinch roller is opened, the tail lifting sleeve is lowered, and the merging pinch roller is operated to pull the two sections of the strip to build tension, the upper and lower seaming cutouts of the strip are hung together, and after the building tension is completed, the seaming part is transported forward to the flattening machine, the upper roller of the flattening machine is pressed down to flatten the seaming part, and then the flattening machine is lifted, and the butt joint of the strip is completed.

[0017] Further, the galvanized strip base plate steel grade includes CQ, DQ, and DDQ.

[0018] Further, the thickness of the zinc layer of the strip base plate is 30 g / m 2 ~ 140 g / m 2 .

[0019] Further, the tail first detection position, the tail second detection position, and the head detection position are respectively provided with a first sensor, a second sensor, and a third sensor, the operation of the merging pinch roller is controlled by the detection signals sent by the first sensor and the third sensor, the start of the operation of the tail pinch roller is controlled by the detection signal sent by the first sensor, and the stop of the operation of the tail pinch roller is controlled by the detection signal sent by the second sensor.

[0020] Further, as the tail pinch roller transports the strip in S2, the tail lifting sleeve slowly rises, the lifting sleeve platform behind the rear centering platform is lifted, a small lifting sleeve is formed to store the strip transported by the tail pinch roller in the tail lifting sleeve area, so as to facilitate the building tension operation after the riveting is completed.

[0021] Further, the first riveting head is formed after the first riveting in S5 (in actual production, the 0.18-0.35mm color-coated strip steel is easily cracked by the tension of the unit due to the thinness of the strip, so secondary riveting must be performed), the second riveting head is obtained after the second riveting of the first riveting head, and the first riveting head and the second riveting head are penetrated after the second riveting head leaves the range of the riveting die, so as to prevent the tension from causing cracking.

[0022] Further, the penetrating strip is a 7-15mm wide reinforcing strip penetrating between the riveting holes formed by the die at the overlapping part of the strip head and the strip tail, the length of the reinforcing strip is consistent with the width of the strip steel, and the width of the reinforcing strip is less than the longest opening of the riveting hole along the length direction of the strip steel.

[0023] Further, before the riveting action in S5, the riveting operation parameters of the seaming machine are set and the overlap amount is given; the hydraulic cylinder pressure is 800-2800KN, the strip conveying speed is 4-30m / min, the strip tail pick-up pressure is 750-1420daN, the flattening machine pressure is 800-3200daN, the overlap amount of the operation side of the seaming machine is 260mm-800mm, the overlap amount of the transmission side of the seaming machine is 260mm-800mm, the overlap amounts of the operation sides in the two riveting operations need to be consistent, the overlap amounts of the transmission sides also need to be consistent, and the center lines of the strip head and the strip tail strip need to coincide with the center line of the unit.

[0024] The application has the advantages and positive effects that:

[0025] 1. The application adopts riveting butt joint, which can avoid the influence of the coating and the plating on the butt joint of the strip head and the strip tail, and can achieve the connection of the lower coil strip of the continuous production unit, the riveting head part is firm and stable, and problems such as cracking, splitting and misalignment of the butt joint can be avoided.

[0026] 2. The riveting structure of the application adopts a penetrating strip structure to connect the strip head section strip steel and the strip tail section strip steel, and the reinforcing strip penetrates through a plurality of riveting holes which are in the shape of a trapezoid as a whole and have fold lines as the two waists; the design of such riveting holes can more effectively disperse the stress applied on the connection point and reduce the stress concentration phenomenon; the design of the fold lines makes the stress more evenly spread on the hole wall, thereby improving the durability and fatigue resistance of the connection part; when shearing force is applied, the force can be better transmitted along the hole wall, which helps to improve the stability of the connecting piece when subjected to lateral force, especially under dynamic load conditions, the fold line structure provides an additional support path, enhances the overall strength and reliability of the structure; in addition, this design can also improve the sealing performance of the connection, especially in applications requiring waterproof and dustproof, the design of the fold line of the riveting hole can form a natural barrier around the hole to prevent external substances from invading, which is very important for some special environmental applications.

[0027] 3. This invention solves the problem of the impact of coating and zinc layer on the connection of strip steel substrate by selectively choosing one-time riveting or two-time riveting. It can achieve high-quality connection of the head and tail of color-coated steel strip, reduce connection time and the use of transition plates, and ensure stable and reliable quality of the riveting seam. It also enables continuous operation of the color-coated steel sheet unit and improves production capacity.

[0028] 4. This invention uses a pressure regulating valve for pressure control, which allows for preset hydraulic pressure settings for steel strips of different thicknesses, ensuring quality when riveting steel strips of different specifications. Excessive pressure during thin plate riveting can easily cause cracks in the riveting seam, and can lead to adhesion between the mold and the strip at the upper and lower molds of the riveting machine, or warping of the strip extending beyond the mold. All of these problems affect the quality of the riveted joint. When riveting thick plates and strips, insufficient riveting pressure can easily result in incomplete riveting or incomplete riveting, leading to failure to stitch the thick plates together, poor stitching quality, and separation during assembly.

[0029] 5. The present invention installs sensors at three detection positions to determine the position of the front and rear strips, and precisely controls the position of the strip by coordinating the control of the converging pinch roll and the tail pinch roll, reducing personnel operation and operational risks, reducing the positioning time of the head and tail of the strip, and ensuring the stable operation of the unit.

[0030] 6. This invention employs two centering devices: a front centering platform and a rear centering platform. Simultaneously, it achieves rapid centering through a centering plate. During the centering operation, the preset width of the plate strip also prevents the edges of the thin plate from being deformed due to width changes, thus improving the safety of the operator, saving time, and ensuring the operation of the continuous unit.

[0038] In the description of the following examples, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting", "setting" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, set, or it can be detachably connected, set, or integrally connected, set. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the patent can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0039] Embodiment: refer to the attached Figures 1-4 A color coated strip steel riveting device, comprising a front centering platform 2, a sewing machine 3, a rear centering platform 4 and a flattening machine 8 connected in turn; the sewing machine 3 comprises a mounting frame 301, and the mounting frame 301 is a door-shaped frame, a back-shaped frame or a C-shaped frame, etc. A guide column 304, a riveting die 302 and a hydraulic cylinder 303 are arranged in the middle of the mounting frame 301; the riveting die 302 comprises an upper die and a lower die, and a strip steel 5 is arranged between the two; the lower die is pushed up by the hydraulic cylinder 303 and rivets the strip steel 5 together with the upper die; a tail pinch roller 6 and a tail pick-up 7 are further arranged between the rear centering platform 4 and the flattening machine 8, and the tail pick-up 7 is controlled by a driving cylinder 9; the front end of the front centering platform 2 is provided with a convergence pinch roller 1 on which an encoder is mounted.

[0040] Both the upper and lower molds are composed of a mold base 3021 and a riveting working part 3022. Several springs 3023 are provided between the mold base 3021 and the riveting working part 3022. The riveting working part 3022 of the lower mold has two rows of detachable mold protrusions 17 (e.g., ...). Figure 3 As shown, in this example, there are specifically thirty-six mold protrusions 17, eighteen of which are arranged in each row; the mounting parts of the mold protrusions 17 (the mounting components of the mold protrusions 17) have a trapezoidal cross-section with two broken lines on the sides. The riveting working part 3022 of the upper mold has a groove in the middle that matches the mold protrusion 17; when the upper mold and the lower mold form an interlocking relationship, a riveting hole 16 is left on the strip steel 5. The hydraulic cylinder 303 is equipped with a pressure regulating valve, and an upper limit travel switch 305 is provided next to the guide column 304. The pressure regulating valve is used for pressure control, and the hydraulic pressure can be preset for different situations of steel strips of different thicknesses, so that the quality can be guaranteed when riveting strip steel 5 of different specifications. In existing constant pressure riveting technology, when the pressure cannot be adjusted during the riveting process, excessive pressure during thin plate riveting can easily cause cracks in the riveting seam, and can also lead to the mold and strip sticking together, or the strip extending beyond the mold can warp. All of these problems will affect the quality of the riveted joint. When riveting thick plates and strips, insufficient riveting pressure can easily result in incomplete riveting or incomplete riveting, causing the thick plates to fail to be sewn together, or the sewing quality to be poor, and the joint to pull apart during the assembly process.

[0041] Both the front centering platform 2 and the rear centering platform 4 are aligned with the strip steel 5 by centering plates 10, and the centering action is completed by the rapid closing and opening of the centering plates 10.

[0042] The method for butt welding color-coated steel strips using the above-mentioned riveting device includes the following steps:

[0043] S1. The leading section 14 and the trailing section 15 of the strip are precision-shorn; the base steel grades of the galvanized strip include: CQ, DQ, and DDQ. The zinc coating thickness of the strip base is 30g / m2 to 140g / m2.

[0044] S2, the merging pinch roll 1 sends the tail section of the strip 15 to the tail pinch roll 6 and the tail loop 7, the tail section of the strip 15 stops after passing the tail first detection position 11 in front of the front centering platform 2, the tail pinch roll 6 continues to send the tail section of the strip 15 until the tail section of the strip 15 stops after passing the tail second detection position in front of the feeding port of the seaming machine 3, the tail pinch roll 6 stops sending the strip while the drive cylinder 9 has already lifted the tail loop 7; in the S2, the tail loop 7 slowly rises as the tail pinch roll 6 sends the strip, the tail loop platform behind the rear centering platform 4 is lifted to form a small loop to store the strip 5 sent by the tail pinch roll 6 in the tail loop area, so as to facilitate the building operation after riveting is completed.

[0045] S3, the merging pinch roll 1 sends the head section of the strip 14 to the head detection position at the outlet of the front centering platform 2, starts to record the meter and continues to send the head section of the strip 14 forward by a preset length and then stops, at this time, the front end of the head section of the strip 14 enters the seaming machine 3 and overlaps with the tail end of the tail section of the strip 15 above the lower die;

[0046] S4, the front centering platform 2 and the rear centering platform 4 push the center lines of the head section of the strip 14 and the tail section of the strip 15 to the center of the production line according to the preset width of the strip 5, so as to complete the centering action; in the S5, before the riveting action starts, the seaming machine 3 is set with riveting operation parameters and given overlap; the pressure of the hydraulic cylinder 303 is 800-2800KN, the conveying speed of the strip 5 is 4-30m / min, the pressure of the tail loop 7 is 750-1420daN, the pressure of the flattening machine 8 is 800-3200daN, the overlap on the operation side of the seaming machine 3 is 260mm-800mm, and the overlap on the transmission side of the seaming machine 3 is 260mm-800mm. The overlaps on the operation side need to be consistent during the two riveting operations, the overlaps on the transmission side also need to be consistent, and the center lines of the head and tail plates of the strip need to coincide with the center line of the unit.

[0047] S5, the lower die of the seaming machine 3 is pushed up by the hydraulic cylinder 303 to perform the riveting action, and when it reaches the set pressure and contacts the upper limit travel switch, it automatically returns. When the control unit receives the upper limit signal, it controls the hydraulic cylinder 303 to descend, and at the same time, the spring 3023 in the riveting die 302 extends to separate the riveted strip steel 5 from the riveting die 302. The head and tail of the strip steel 5 are completely riveted through the die, and under the action of tension, the riveting holes 16 achieve self-locking state, completing the first riveting action to obtain two rows of riveting holes 16 that are trapezoidal in shape and have fold lines as the two waists; when the thickness of the seamed strip steel 5 is less than 0.35mm, secondary riveting is required. Open the front and rear centering platforms 2 and 4 and continue to transport the overlapped head section strip steel 14 and tail section strip steel 15 forward by a distance of one overlap amount. After the strip is delivered, secondary centering and second riveting action are performed, and again two rows of riveting holes 16 that are trapezoidal in shape and have fold lines as the two waists are obtained; in S5, after the first riveting, a first riveted joint is formed (in actual production, since the color-coated strip steel 0.18-0.35mm is too thin, it is easy to be torn by the tension of the unit, so secondary riveting must be performed), and after the first riveted joint moves out of the range of the riveting die, secondary riveting is performed to obtain a second riveted joint. After the second riveted joint moves out of the range of the riveting die, the first and second riveted joints are threaded, preventing the occurrence of tension tearing.

[0048] This design of riveting hole 16 can more effectively disperse the stress applied on the connection point and reduce stress concentration; the design of fold line allows the stress to be more evenly distributed on the hole wall, thereby improving the durability and fatigue resistance of the connection part; when subjected to shear force, the force can be better transmitted along the hole wall, helping to improve the stability of the connecting part under lateral force, especially under dynamic load conditions, the fold line structure provides an additional support path, enhancing the overall strength and reliability of the structure; in addition, this design can also improve the sealing of the connection, especially in applications that require waterproof and dustproof, the design of the fold line of the riveting hole 16 can form a natural barrier around the hole to prevent external substances from entering, which is very important for some special environmental applications. In addition, the wide trapezoidal side of this riveting hole 16 can compensate for slight deviations caused during stamping to some extent, so that even if there is a slight misalignment between the head section strip steel 14 and the tail section strip steel 15, the reinforcing strip 13 can still be inserted smoothly.

[0049] S6. After all riveting operations are completed, open the front centering platform 2 and the rear centering platform 4, open the tail clamping roller 6, lower the tail lifting sleeve 7, and move the converging clamping roller 1 backward to pull the two strip steel sections together. The upper and lower seam cuts of the strip steel are hooked together. After the seam is formed, transport the seam part forward to the flattening machine. The upper roller of the flattening machine 8 presses down to flatten the seam part and then lifts it up to prevent the protruding part of the riveting joint from scratching the rubber roller behind it. The strip steel 5 is now joined.

[0050] The first detection position of the belt tail, the second detection position of the belt tail, and the detection position of the belt head are respectively equipped with a first sensor, a second sensor, and a third sensor. The stopping of the operation of the converging pinch roller 1 is controlled by the detection signals sent by the first sensor and the third sensor. The starting of the operation of the belt tail pinch roller 6 is controlled by the detection signal sent by the first sensor. The stopping of the operation of the belt tail pinch roller 6 is controlled by the detection signal sent by the second sensor.

[0051] Experimental Example 1: The substrate steel is DX51D-Z, with a thickness of 0.25mm and a zinc layer thickness of 40g / m. 2 The galvanized steel strip substrate was used for riveting. The overlap on both the operating and transmission sides was set at 650mm. The pressure of the pushing cylinder was 900KN, the pressure of the tail sleeve was 800daN, the belt head and tail feeding speed was 18m / min, and the flattening machine pressure was 800daN. The first riveting began 60mm after the belt head; the second riveting began 370mm after the belt head. After riveting, reinforcing strips 13 (12mm wide) were inserted at both the first and second riveting joints. The converging pinch rollers and the tail pinch rollers simultaneously fed the strip forward at 30m / min through the edge flattening machine. The obtained riveted joints were tensioned using a machine assembly. A tensioning machine was set to a maximum tension of 35KN for a tensile test. The test results showed no tearing at the riveting joint, no deformation after inserting the reinforcing strip 13, good joint toughness, and the tensile test was passed.

[0052] The riveting procedure eliminates the riveting completion procedure after the first riveting, allowing the control to prevent the tail sleeve from retracting, the converging pinch roller and the tail pinch roller from opening, the inlet centering plate and the outlet centering plate from opening, and the converging pinch roller and the tail pinch roller to feed the strip steel to achieve a second riveting.

[0053] Experimental Example 2: The substrate steel is DX53D-Z, with a thickness of 0.5mm and a zinc layer thickness of 60g / m. 2galvanized steel substrate, the lap length of the operating side is set to 400 mm, the lap length of the driving side is 400 mm, the pressure of the pushing cylinder is 1200 KN, the pressure of the tail set is 1000 daN, the speed of the head and tail of the strip is 30 m / min, the pressure of the flattening machine is 1300 daN, the first riveting starts at 70 mm behind the head of the strip; after riveting, a 10 mm wide reinforcing strip 13 is inserted at the first riveting joint, and the converging pinch roll and the tail pinch roll simultaneously forward the strip at a speed of 30 m / min through the side flattening machine. The obtained riveting joint is tested by the tensioning machine in the form of a unit, and the tensioning machine is set to a large tension of 45 KN to test the riveting joint tension, and the experimental results show that the riveting joint interface does not tear, the reinforcing strip 13 does not deform, the joint toughness is good, and the tension test is qualified.
