When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model provides an automatic unhooking hook assembly for roller changing of a rolling mill. The rolling mill roll changing automatic uncoupling hook head assembly includes a hook head 1, a hook head seat 3, a hook lifting lever 5, a roll changing cylinder 7 and a working roll mop 9, wherein the roll changing cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the hook head seat 3 and is used to drive the hook head seat 3 to move along the track, the hook head 1 is rotatably installed on the hook head seat 3, the head of the hook head 1 hooks the working roll mop 9 for replacing the working roll 10, and a flip rod 11 is installed on the hook head 1, and the hook lifting lever 5 includes a lever 51 rotatably connected to the outer surface of the hook head seat 3, a pressure head mechanism 53 installed at one end of the lever 51, and a fixed pressing plate 55 installed directly above the pressure head mechanism 53, the other end of the lever 51 is located below the flip rod 11 and is used to lift the hook head 1 during the rotation process, and the pressure head mechanism 53 can produce up and down displacement, so that the lever 51 rotates under the control of the pressure head mechanism 53 and drives the flip rod 11 to rotate, thereby driving the hook head 1 to rotate an angle to unhook from the working roll 10. After the roller change is completed, the hook head 1 and the working roller mop 9 are in a hooked horizontal state, the pressure head mechanism 53 is pressed under the fixed pressure plate 55, and the lever cannot rotate under the action of the hook head 1, and then the hook head seat 3 is pushed by the roller change cylinder 7 to move a certain distance in the direction of the working roller 10 so that the hook head 1 and the working roller mop 9 are separated. When the hook head 1 is released, the pressure head mechanism 53 rotates, and the end of the lever close to the head of the hook head 1 is tilted upward, prompting the flip rod 11 to drive the hook head 1 and rotate the angle to realize the automatic decoupling of the hook head 1 and the working roller mop, without manual intervention, the roller change speed is fast and the efficiency is high, the lever mechanical mechanism is not easy to wear, the structural movement between the components is stable, and the maintenance rate is low.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a mounting plate 511 is provided at the end of the lever 51, and a square hole is provided on the mounting plate 511. The pressure head mechanism 53 includes a slider 531, a telescopic member 533, a roller 535 and a threaded guide rod 537. The slider 531 passes through the telescopic member 533 and is inserted into the lever. The roller 535 is rotatably mounted on the slider 531. The roller 535 contacts the bottom surface of the fixed pressure plate 55, and the rotation direction of the roller 535 is tangent to the movement direction of the roller-changing cylinder. The threaded guide rod 537 passes through the mounting plate 511 from the bottom of the mounting plate 511 and is connected to the slider 531 by threads. The roller 535 is connected to the lower surface of the fixed pressure plate 55 in a rolling manner. As the roller-changing cylinder 7 pushes and pulls, the wear between the pressure head mechanism 53 and the fixed pressure plate 55 is reduced. The slider 531 does not rotate when it moves up and down, and the movement is flexible and stable.

[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, the telescopic member 533 is a spring. The spring has a rebound force under compression, and the hook-lifting lever 5 rebounds when the pressure of the fixed pressure plate 55 is released, thereby causing the hook-lifting lever 5 to rotate.

[0031] Furthermore, the threaded guide rod 537 is a screw rod with a threaded end. The end of the threaded guide rod 537 with a thread is threadedly connected to the slider 531, and the end of the screw rod without a thread is a plain rod, and the end without a thread forms a sliding connection with the mounting plate to guide it. Under the action of the fixed pressure plate 55, the screw rod and the slider 531 move up and down at the same time.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, further, the slider 531 includes a head 5311 and a sliding portion 5313, the sliding portion 5313 passes through the telescopic member 533 and is inserted into the mounting plate 511, and the threaded guide rod 537 passes through the mounting plate from the bottom of the mounting plate and is connected to the head 5311.

[0033] The fixed pressing plate 55 includes a horizontally arranged hook pressing surface 551 and an inclinedly arranged guide surface 553 at the bottom thereof. Under the pulling of the roll changing oil cylinder 7, the pressing head mechanism 53 enters the hook pressing surface from the guide surface 553. After the pressing head mechanism 53 enters the horizontal hook pressing surface 551, it is pressed by the fixed pressing plate 55. After the roll changing is completed, the roll changing oil cylinder 7 extends about 30 mm toward the working roll mop 9. At this time, the hook head 1 and the working roll mop 9 are separated. While the pressing head mechanism 53 is pressed by the fixed pressing plate 55, the spring rebound force causes the pressing head mechanism 53 to move downward, driving one end of the lever to rotate, and the other end lifts the flip rod 11, prompting the hook head 1 to flip and lift up, and then the oil cylinder continues to work to pull the hook head 1 out to achieve automatic unhooking of the roll changing.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, a clearance notch 510 with an arc-shaped working surface is provided at one end of the lever 51 close to the flip rod 11, and the working surface matches and contacts the outer contour of the flip rod 11. The provision of the clearance notch 510 is conducive to the cooperation between the lever and the flip rod 11, so that the flip rod 11 can be smoothly driven to rotate during the lever flipping process.

[0035] In this embodiment, the hook head 1 is rotatably connected to the hook head seat 3 via a pin. Driven by the lever, the hook head 1 rotates around the pin to form a flip angle.

[0036] In this embodiment, the lever 51 is rotatably connected to the hook seat 3 via a pin. The lever rotates around the pin under the linkage of the pressing head mechanism 53.

[0037] The utility model provides an automatic uncoupling hook head 1 assembly for rolling mill roll changing to control the uncoupling of the hook head 1 through a hook lifting lever 5, and the pressure head mechanism 53 of the hook lifting lever 5 can produce an up and down displacement, so that the lever rotates under the control of the pressure head mechanism 53 and drives the flip rod 11 to rotate, thereby driving the hook head 1 to rotate an angle to uncouple from the working roll mop, thereby realizing automatic uncoupling of the hook head 1 and the working roll mop 9, without the need for manual intervention, with fast roll changing speed and high efficiency, the lever mechanical mechanism is not easy to wear, the structural movement between the components is stable, and the maintenance rate is low.

[0038] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
