Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of rolling mill bolt loosening detection technology, specifically a rolling mill bolt loosening detection device for electric vehicle steel plate production. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of electric vehicles, steel plates are one of the most important materials. The production process requires the use of equipment such as rolling mills. To improve the stability of the equipment, a large number of bolts are usually installed on the rolling mill for connection and reinforcement. During long-term use, due to changes in the stress on the machine body, some bolts may become loose or unable to bear the force. Loosening here means that even if the bolt does not shake, it is no longer able to bear the force on the equipment during use. In this case, the bolt at that location needs to be inspected and replaced to avoid affecting the stability of the equipment operation.
[0003] In such cases, observation and shaking alone are insufficient to determine bolt looseness. Currently, the most common method is to sense the stress around the bolt to detect its tension and thus determine if it is loose. Existing detection methods often involve manually attaching strain gauges. Special adhesive is applied to one side of each strain gauge before it is individually attached to the perimeter of the bolt, and the stress around the bolt is dynamically monitored during equipment operation. This manual attachment method is inefficient, results in uneven adhesion, and can easily affect the accuracy of the test results. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The conveying mechanism also includes two sets of drive rollers 32 that are rotatably connected to the machine body 1. The inner wall of the conveyor belt 3 is connected to the outer wall of the two sets of drive rollers 32. The conveying trough 2 is provided with multiple sets of storage frames 33. The storage frames 33 are used to store strain gauges 43. An output port 34 is opened on the upper side of the storage frame 33. The conveying trough 2 is provided with a drive component for controlling the conveying state of the storage frame 33.
[0026] The driving component includes an electric telescopic rod 35 fixedly installed in the conveying trough 2. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 35 is fixedly connected to a lifting frame 36. The storage frame 33 can slide horizontally connected to the lifting frame 36. A second spring 37 is fixedly connected inside the storage frame 33. A push plate 38 is fixedly connected to the top of the second spring 37. The push plate 38 slides vertically connected to the inner wall of the storage frame 33. The conveying trough 2 is provided with a feeding component for switching and feeding multiple sets of strain gauges 43.
[0027] The feeding component includes two sets of guide rails 39 fixedly installed in the conveying trough 2. The storage frame 33 can slide horizontally connected to the inner wall of the guide rail 39. A hydraulic rod 40 is fixedly connected in the conveying trough 2. A push frame 41 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 40. Multiple sets of storage frames 33 can slide vertically connected to the inner wall of the push frame 41.
[0028] Working principle: A certain amount of strain gauges 43 are stored in the storage frame 33. The hydraulic rod 40 pushes the push frame 41, causing multiple sets of storage frames 33 to slide horizontally along the guide rail 39 and the lifting frame 36. The electric telescopic rod 35 pushes the lifting frame 36 to raise and lower, thus controlling the raising and lowering of the storage frames 33 inside the lifting frame 36. The drive roller 32 controls the conveyor belt 3 to rotate intermittently, realizing the switching and adjustment of the position of the fixed cylinder 16 and the second suction cup 19. When the storage frame 33 moves upward, the upper surface of the uppermost set of strain gauges 43 inside the storage frame 33 will abut against the surface of the second suction cup 19 and the glue application cylinder 22, pushing the sliding column 17 upward, compressing the first spring 18, and squeezing the glue in the fixed cylinder 16 into the first pipe 28 and the second pipe 29, thereby allowing the glue to pass through the third pipe 30 and the second suction cup. The adhesive is applied to the middle of the strain gauge 43 by the coating plate 19 and transported to the output frame 23 and the glue outlet 24 through the fourth pipe 31, reaching the outer wall of the coating cylinder 22. As the coating cylinder 22 rolls, the adhesive is applied to the surface of the strain gauge 43. At this time, some parts of the sides of the strain gauge 43 are still blocked by the top of the storage frame 33. When the mechanical claw 6 uses the first suction cup 8 to adsorb the other side of the strain gauge 43, the strain gauge 43 needs to be pressed further to make the swing plate 21 continue to swing. The adhesive is then completely applied to one side of the strain gauge 43 by the coating cylinder 22. The initial area of the second suction cup 19 is small and will expand to the surrounding areas during the adsorption process, thereby achieving full coating of the middle part of the strain gauge 43. The middle part of the second suction cup 19 is also filled with adhesive. The coating cylinder 22 is always in contact with the outer wall of the second suction cup 19 to improve the uniformity of the adhesive application.
[0029] After the second suction cup 19 adsorbs the strain gauge 43, the conveyor belt 3 drives the second suction cup 19 to move horizontally, allowing the uppermost strain gauge 43 to slide horizontally out of the output port 34 and be conveyed to the upper position by the conveyor belt 3. At this time, the upper part of the strain gauge 43 is the uncoated area, and the lower part is the coated area, which facilitates the mechanical claw 6 and the first suction cup 8 to adsorb the upper part, completing the gripping of the strain gauge 43 and improving the subsequent bonding efficiency of the strain gauge 43. The second spring 37 and the push plate 38 can always ensure that the strain gauge 43 in the storage frame 33 is in the upper position. The topmost strain gauge 43 is blocked by the storage frame 33 and can slide horizontally out of the output port 34. The electric telescopic rod 35 The displacement of each lifting and lowering is relatively fixed. After the uppermost strain gauge 43 slides out, the electric telescopic rod 35 pulls back, and when the next set of second suction cups 19 arrives, it pushes the storage frame 33 up to the required position. After the strain gauge 43 in the storage frame 33 finishes outputting, the storage frame 33 is lowered to a position flush with the guide rail 39. The hydraulic rod 40 is activated to push the push frame 41 to move horizontally a set distance, so that the next set of storage frames 33 can be switched into the lifting frame 36, while the empty storage frame 33 slides into the guide rail 39 on the other side. The setting of the push frame 41 can ensure the stable switching of multiple sets of storage frames 33, and at the same time, it can also limit and guide the vertical lifting and sliding state of the storage frame 33.
[0030] It should be noted that: by filling the storage tank 25 with glue, the conveyor belt 3 will drive one end of the conveyor pipe 26 to rotate synchronously during the rotation process. At this time, the other end of the conveyor pipe 26 always rotates with the storage tank 25 and remains connected. The conveyor pipe 26 swings and rotates in the conveyor trough 2. There is no obstruction in the middle, so that the conveyor pipe 26 will not get tangled, thus ensuring the stable delivery of glue.
[0031] The robotic arm 4 drives the mounting frame 5 to move and rotate in multiple directions, allowing the mounting frame 5 to reach any position that needs to be inspected. By controlling the rotation state of the drive disk 7, multiple sets of guide blocks 11 slide and switch within the horizontal groove 13 and the annular groove 12. When multiple sets of guide blocks 11 are all within the horizontal groove 13, the set of guide blocks 11 closest to the drive disk 7 is at the junction of the horizontal groove 13 and the annular groove 12, and the drive teeth 10 above it mesh with the drive groove 9 on the drive disk 7. The drive teeth 10 on the other guide blocks 11 do not mesh with the drive groove 9. The guide blocks 11 are connected to the same straight line by the connecting rods 14, so that the multiple sets of mechanical claws 6 are arranged horizontally. At this time, the distance between adjacent first suction cups 8 is the same as the distance between adjacent second suction cups 19 below. By controlling the mechanical arm 4, the mounting frame 5 can move the multiple sets of first suction cups 8 down to the required position, and at the same time, it can adsorb the upper part of the multiple sets of strain gauges 43. After pressing down, the glue coating tube 22 below completely applies glue to the lower surface of the strain gauges 43. After that, the suction force of the first suction cup 8 is greater than that of the second suction cup 19, so the strain gauges 43 on the second suction cup 19 can be removed.
[0032] The connecting rod 45 on the mechanical claw 6 is swung to a position where it connects to the lead wire on the strain gauge 43. The connecting rod 45 is equipped with a magnetic terminal, which can attract and connect the lead wire to realize the signal transmission function. After the connection is completed, the drive disk 7 is controlled to rotate clockwise, which drives the drive teeth 10 and guide blocks 11 above to slide along the annular groove 12. The connecting rod 14 pulls the adjacent drive teeth 10 and guide blocks 11 to move into the annular groove 12. Finally, multiple sets of drive teeth 10 and guide blocks 11 all enter the annular groove 12 to form a ring. The mechanical claw 6 above is evenly distributed. At this time, the position of the mounting bracket 5 can be controlled to move the mechanical claw 6 to the position of the bolt outer wall. The position of the cleaning turntable 44 on the mechanical claw 6 is controlled and adjusted to rotate and clean the outer wall of the bolt to be pasted, thereby improving the stability of the strain gauge 43 during pasting. By controlling the swing of multiple sets of mechanical claws 6 and the adsorption state of the first suction cup 8, the strain gauge 43 can be pasted onto the outer wall of the bolt simultaneously. The pasting process is more uniform and the pasting efficiency of the strain gauge 43 is improved.
[0033] Conversely, when it is necessary to transport the guide block 11 into the horizontal groove 13, the drive disk 7 can be controlled to rotate in the opposite direction when the guide block 11 at one end reaches the position where the horizontal groove 13 and the annular groove 12 intersect. At this time, the guide block 11 will slide from the annular groove 12 to the side of the horizontal groove 13. The guide block 11 is attracted by the magnetic strip 15, so that the guide block 11 slides into the horizontal groove 13 along the top surface of the intersection position. Then, the remaining guide blocks 11 can be driven to slide into the horizontal groove 13, and the multiple sets of mechanical claws 6 can be unfolded into a horizontal position to perform simultaneous gripping operations on the strain gauge 43.
[0034] After the strain gauge 43 is attached, the first suction cup 8 is released from its adsorption state, and the position of the mechanical claw 6 is finely adjusted to create a certain gap between the first suction cup 8 and the strain gauge 43, so as not to affect the stress sensing during the strain gauge 43 detection process. During this process, the connecting rod 45 remains connected to the lead wire. The signal is transmitted to the connecting rod 45 through the lead wire on the side of the strain gauge 43. The connecting rod 45 is connected to the stress and strain testing instrument built into the body 1 via Bluetooth or a wire, so as to realize the transmission of stress data. The stress and strain testing instrument built into the body 1 can dynamically display the stress results. First, the monitoring from the static state to the running state is carried out, and the stress change of the metal around the bolt is measured. The first step is to determine whether the bolt has failed. Secondly, stress monitoring during operation is performed to detect changes in the metal stress around the bolt, achieving real-time monitoring and improving detection efficiency and accuracy. After detection, the strain gauge 43 is picked up and removed by the first suction cup 8. Since the strain gauge 43 is typically for single use, it can be directly discarded into the trash can on the side of the machine body 1 by the mechanical claw 6. Then, the cleaning turntable 44 on the mechanical claw 6 is adjusted to clean and polish the residual glue on the outer wall of the bolt. The above steps can then be repeated to transport the strain gauge 43 to the first suction cup 8 for the next set of bolts to be tested.
[0035] It is worth noting that: when multiple sets of mechanical claws 6 are distributed in a linear or circular pattern, the position and angle of the strain gauge 43 can be adjusted by adjusting the swing and deflection of the mechanical claws 6. Furthermore, the strain gauges 43 on multiple sets of mechanical claws 6 can be pasted simultaneously or some sets can be pasted individually, making it more flexible to use. This device is suitable for use in various machines with many bolts for bolt loosening detection, such as crane turntables, large conveyors, and other equipment.
