Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of steel cord manufacturing, in particular to a borax quantitative replenishing device for a boron coating tank. Background Art

[0002] The function of the steel wire pretreatment boron coating tank is that after the steel wire passes through the boron coating tank, a layer of borax is covered on the surface of the steel wire, which is convenient for the subsequent drawing process of the steel wire. Therefore, the thickness of the borax layer covering the surface of the steel wire is relatively strict. During the production process, the boron coating tank processes 16 steel wires at the same time. When the steel wire passes through the pretreatment boron coating tank, borax is continuously taken away, so that the concentration of borax in the boron coating tank is continuously reduced, and borax needs to be replenished in the boron coating tank. During current production, the borax in the boron coating tank is replenished periodically by manual operation, and 100kg of borax needs to be replenished into the tank per shift. Manual replenishment requires a lot of labor, and the concentration of borax cannot be accurately guaranteed and fluctuates greatly. Although the borax concentration meets the process requirements within 24 hours, the thickness of the borax layer on the surface of the steel wire varies greatly and cannot be effectively controlled, which will directly affect the drawing quality of the steel wire in the wire drawing machine.

[0020] In order to provide a further understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and functions of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0021] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings.

Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 A borax quantitative replenishing device for a boron coating tank 7 is used to add borax to the boron coating tank 7, comprising a borax box 1, a feeding valve 2, a feeding pipe 5, a pushing plate 6 and a driving device 4; the borax box 1 is installed above the boron coating tank 7 and is filled with borax, the feeding valve 2 is installed at the bottom of the borax box 1, the feeding valve 2 is connected to the feeding pipe 5, one end of the feeding pipe 5 is installed with the driving device 4, the other end of the feeding pipe 5 is connected to the boron coating tank 7, the end of the driving device 4 extending into the feeding pipe 5 is installed with the pushing plate 6, and the pushing plate 6 is controlled by the driving device 4 to reciprocate in the feeding pipe 5; the feeding valve 2 is used to control the feeding of the borax box 1, and the pushing plate 6 is used to push the borax unloaded by the feeding valve 2 to the outside of the feeding pipe 5 and fall into the boron coating tank 7.

[0023] The process of using the borax quantitative replenishing device for the boron coating tank 7 of the utility model is as follows: add borax to the borax box 1 to ensure that the amount of borax therein is sufficient to be added to the boron coating tank 7. When borax needs to be added to the boron coating tank 7, the feeding valve 2 is controlled to open, and the borax in the borax box 1 falls from the feeding valve 2 into the feeding pipe 5 below, and then the driving device 4 drives the pushing plate 6 to push the borax in the feeding pipe 5 to the other end and fall into the boron coating tank 7 below. The driving device 4 controls the pushing plate 6 to return to the original position. If borax still needs to be added, the feeding valve 2 is controlled to open again for feeding, and the above actions are repeated until borax is no longer needed in the boron coating tank 7.

[0024] In one embodiment, the feeding valve 2 is a rotary feeding valve 2, and the feeding valve 2 is equipped with a servo motor 3, which is used to control the switch of the feeding valve 2. The rotary feeding valve 2 can discharge the material to the downstream evenly and continuously according to the requirements of the control program, and can replace manual feeding while ensuring the accuracy of borax addition, thereby improving the thickness uniformity of borax on the surface of the steel wire.

[0025] In one embodiment, the push plate 6 is matched with the size of the feed pipe 5, and the push plate 6 moves in a sealed manner in the feed pipe 5 to ensure sealing, thereby preventing water vapor in the boron coating tank 7 from entering the feed pipe 5 and preventing borax from crystallizing.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The push plate 6 includes a connecting plate 10, a clamping plate 8, and a silicone pad 9. The connecting plate 10 is fixedly mounted on one end of the driving device 4 extending into the feeding pipe 5. The silicone pad 9 is mounted on the outside of the connecting plate 10. The clamping plate 8 is mounted on the outside of the silicone pad 9. The silicone pad 9 is clamped between the connecting plate 10 and the clamping plate 8. Further, the connecting plate 10, the clamping plate 8 and the silicone pad 9 are fixed by bolts 11. The push plate 6 of the above structure has low manufacturing cost, simple structure and convenient installation.

[0027] Furthermore, the periphery of the silicone pad 9 extends out of the clamping plate 8 and the connecting plate 10, so that only the periphery of the silicone pad 9 contacts the inner wall of the feeding tube 5. The periphery of the silicone pad 9 matches the inner wall of the feeding tube 5 in size. When the push plate 6 moves in the feeding tube 5, the silicone pad 9 is always tightly connected to the feeding tube 5. The silicone pad 9 is soft and deformable, and has strong sealing performance. Therefore, it can effectively ensure that the push plate 6 is always sealed when moving in the feeding tube 5, preventing the water vapor in the boron coating groove 7 from entering the feeding tube 5, preventing borax from crystallizing, and will not scratch the inner wall of the feeding tube 5.

[0028] In one embodiment, the driving device 4 is a cylinder, and the push plate 6 is installed at the end of the push rod 12 of the cylinder. As the push rod 12 of the cylinder is extended and retracted, the push plate 6 moves back and forth in the feeding pipe 5, and the control is convenient and accurate.

[0029] In one embodiment, the driving device 4 and the feeding valve 2 are both connected to the electronic control device, and the electronic control device controls the operating frequency of the driving device 4 and the feeding valve 2 through a program. Furthermore, when the driving device 4 controls the push plate 6 to retract, the feeding valve 2 opens; after the feeding valve 2 is closed, the driving device 4 controls the push plate 6 to move forward and push the borax into the boron coating tank 7. The driving device 4 uses a cylinder and a servo motor 3 matching the feeding valve 2. By controlling the operating frequency of the servo motor 3 and the cylinder through a program, the boron coating tank 7 can be quantitatively supplemented with borax, ensuring that the borax concentration is controlled to fluctuate within a smaller range, while also reducing the labor intensity of manual addition.

[0030] In summary, the borax quantitative replenishing device for a boron coating tank protected by the utility model can replace manual timed and quantitative replenishment of borax for the boron coating tank, ensure the borax concentration in the boron coating tank, reduce the labor intensity of manual replenishment, and at the same time, compared with manual replenishment, can accurately control the amount of replenished borax, so that after the steel wire passes through the boron coating tank, the borax layer on the surface is more uniform, which is beneficial to the drawing quality of the steel wire in the wire drawing machine.

[0031] The present invention has been described by the above-mentioned relevant embodiments, however, the above-mentioned embodiments are only examples for implementing the present invention. It must be pointed out that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. On the contrary, any changes and modifications made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention are within the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
