The position detection sensor used in this high temperature environment has the following main defects:

[0003] 1. When the roller conveyor is running high-temperature billets in this environment, the thermal radiation will easily damage the sensor. Although the installation of cooling water pipes and compressed air purge pipes can ensure that the grating sensor is not damaged, the cooling and purge will cause the surrounding air flow rate to increase, thereby bringing a large amount of airborne dust into the probe, resulting in inaccurate detection signals.

[0004] 2. When the roller is running, the blank flips and falls onto the roller, which will generate vibration and cause the surrounding infrastructure to vibrate synchronously, causing the angle of the incident grating to shift and generate an error signal.

[0005] 3. The maintenance cost of the through-beam grating is high, and the through-beam grating needs to be calibrated, cleaned and calibrated every day.

[0006] 4. The consumption cost of the beam grating is high, its cost is expensive, its service life is short, and it needs to be replaced frequently. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments, but does not constitute any limitation to the utility model. Any limited modifications made by anyone within the scope of the claims of the utility model are still within the scope of the claims of the utility model.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The utility model is a billet position detection device, which includes a rotating shaft 2 and a second mounting structure. The rotating shaft 2 is rotatably mounted on the roller 20 through the first mounting structure. The first mounting structure includes two bearing brackets 1, which are respectively fixedly mounted on both sides of the roller 20. Bearings 5 ​​are fixedly mounted above the two bearing brackets 1, and the rotating shaft 2 is movably inserted in the two bearings 5. The first mounting structure is used to mount the rotating shaft above the roller 20.

[0028] An impact plate 3 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 2, and the impact plate 3 is located above the roller 20 and extends to the path of the steel billet 19. An adjustment plate 4 is fixedly mounted on one end of the rotating shaft 2. The steel billet can hit the impact plate 3 to rotate, and the impact plate 3 drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate.

[0029] The impact plate 3 is a trapezoidal steel plate, the surface of which is provided with a heat insulation layer, and a protective layer is provided outside the heat insulation layer. The heat insulation layer is made of asbestos, and the heat insulation layer prevents the impact plate 3 from being damaged by high temperature. A protective layer is also provided outside the heat insulation layer, and the material of the protective layer is a vacuum layer, to prevent the heat insulation layer from being damaged by impact.

[0030] A screw rod 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 2 away from the bearing 5. Three adjustment holes 6 are provided on the adjusting plate 4. The adjusting plate 4 is sleeved on the screw rod 21 through different adjustment holes 6 to achieve three different gear connection modes, thereby meeting flexible on-site installation requirements. The adjusting plate 4 is installed on the rotating shaft 2 through a nut screwed on the screw rod 21 to achieve the fixing of the adjusting plate 4.

[0031] One end of the rotating shaft 2 close to the bearing 5 is provided with a latch hole, in which a latch 18 is inserted. The latch 18 is used to limit the turning action of the rotating shaft 2 to prevent the rotating shaft 2 from being separated from the bearing 5.

[0032] A connecting column 7 is fixedly mounted on the adjusting plate 4 , and one end of a connecting rope 8 is fixedly connected to the connecting column 7 , and the connecting rope 8 is a steel wire rope.

[0033] The adjustment plate 4 is fixedly connected to the counterweight 15 through the connecting rope 8. The counterweight 15 is movably inserted in the second mounting structure. The second mounting structure is fixedly installed with a proximity switch 9. The proximity switch 9 is electrically connected to the controller. The probe of the proximity switch 9 is toward the moving path of the counterweight 15.

[0034] The counterweight 15 is used to shield the signal of the proximity switch 9. When the counterweight 15 is not pulled up by the connecting rope 8, the proximity switch 9 inputs an electrical signal to the controller. When the counterweight 15 is pulled up by the connecting rope 8, the counterweight 15 is away from the proximity switch 9, and the proximity switch 9 does not input an electrical signal to the controller.

[0035] The second mounting structure includes a support plate 10, a support rod 11 and a first connecting plate 12. The bottom of the support rod 11 is fixedly connected to the support plate 10, one end of the support rod 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the first connecting plate 12, the bottom of the first connecting plate 12 is fixedly connected to a second connecting plate 13, the second connecting plate 13 is provided with a first socket, the proximity switch 9 is fixedly installed in the first socket, one side of the second connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to a pipe 14, and a counterweight 15 is movably inserted in the pipe 14.

[0036] A pull ring 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the counterweight 15 , and the pull ring 16 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rope 8 .

[0037] Four threaded holes 17 are provided on the support plate 10 , and the support plate 10 is fixedly mounted on the ground by bolts screwed into the threaded holes 17 .

[0038] The working principle of the utility model is: when the steel billet 19 moves on the roller table 20, when the steel billet does not hit the impact plate 3, the counterweight block 15 is always located in the detection range of the proximity switch 9, the proximity switch 9 inputs an electrical signal to the controller, and the controller does not output a steel signal;

[0039] When the steel billet hits the impact plate 3, the impact plate 3 rotates, the impact plate 3 drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate, and then the rotating shaft 2 drives the adjusting plate 4 to rotate, and the adjusting plate 4 pulls the counterweight 15 upward through the connecting rope 8, and the counterweight 15 gradually moves away from the proximity switch 9; when the counterweight 15 is not within the detection range of the proximity switch 9, the proximity switch 9 does not input an electrical signal to the controller, and the controller outputs a steel signal;

[0040] When the steel billet 19 passes through the impact plate 3 and the two are separated, the impact plate 3 is reset due to its own weight, the connecting rope 8 does not pull the counterweight 15, and the counterweight 15 moves downward. When the counterweight 15 is within the detection range of the proximity switch 9, the proximity switch 9 inputs an electrical signal to the controller, and the controller does not output a steel signal.

[0041] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention, which will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent.
