Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of centering, and in particular relates to a clamping centering conveying device. Background Art

[0002] Centering refers to the centering device in the perforation and rolling production of seamless steel pipes. Correct centering of the push rod is the primary process requirement. Inaccurate centering of the push rod and deviation of the push head from the rolling center will cause uneven wall thickness of the rough tube and intensify the vibration of the perforation and rolling process. The huge rolling force will accelerate the wear of the equipment and increase the consumption of tools such as the push rod and the push head. The greater harm is that the metal slip of the rough tube during the perforation process is increased, the perforation and rolling speed is reduced, the output is affected, and it will also cause production accidents such as the puncher being stuck. Usually, the three-roller centering device of the puncher has two transmission modes: gear transmission and connecting rod transmission.

[0003] The existing publication number is: CN214649432U, which discloses a conveying device for clamping and sealing boxes, including symmetrically arranged fixed plates; the fixed plates are movably connected with movable blocks, the movable blocks are movably connected with movable plates, and the opposite side walls of the two movable plates are fixedly connected with clamping plates, one end of the clamping plates is fixedly connected with a baffle, and the other end of the clamping plates is movably connected with a pressure plate. The utility model facilitates clamping the carton and conveying it to a suitable position before sealing the carton.

[0004] However, there are some problems with the existing technology: the entire assembly line uses powered rollers, which are costly. After workpieces of different specifications are parked in place, the centers of the workpieces are not in the same position.

The workpiece will be offset during its self-sliding process. When the workpiece reaches the powered roller, it is tightly attached to the front and back. When the front clamps the workpiece, it will squeeze the workpiece behind. Therefore, we propose a clamping and centering conveying device. Utility Model Content
