Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of universal joint coupling rolling mills, in particular to a universal joint coupling for a rolling mill. Background Art
[0002] The rolling mill adopts a separate drive arrangement for the upper and lower rollers. It is a distributed elastic inertia system. When torsional vibration occurs, an alternating torque appears in the shaft system. This alternating torque is superimposed on the normal rolling torque, resulting in torque oscillation. The peak value of the alternating torque that occurs during torsional vibration can reach 6 to 7 times the rolling torque. The damage caused by torsional vibration to the rollers, transmission shaft system and motor is caused by the abnormal torque generated by torsional vibration, including one-time damage caused by high stress and fatigue damage caused by frequent alternating torque.
[0003] The universal joint coupling is a transmission device that connects the reducer and the two-roller rolling mill. It is located in the rough and medium rolling areas. One end of the universal joint coupling is connected to the reducer, and the other end is supported by a bracket and connected to the two rollers on the rolling mill. During normal production, the motor provides power, and the reducer outputs power to drive the mill rollers through the universal joint coupling to complete the rolling. As the mill rolls are repaired and used again, the roll diameter will become smaller and smaller. To achieve normal rolling of the rolls, the center distance between the two rolls becomes smaller, and the center distance between the two universal joint couplings also needs to become smaller. The change in the center distance of the universal joint coupling is achieved by adjusting the nut.
[0004] At present, due to the rigid connection between the universal joint coupling and the rolling mill rollers, on the one hand, impact force will be generated when the rollers bite into the rolled material for rolling, and on the other hand, the universal joint itself will shake when it rotates. The forces of the two are transmitted to the bracket pull rod, which makes the vibration amplitude of the universal joint coupling larger, which can easily cause damage to the adjusting bolts, causing the rocker device to lose its lever adjustment function, resulting in uneven force on the two rollers on the rolling mill. If the rollers vibrate greatly, the qualified rolling size will not be achieved. At the same time, connecting rods, rocker arms, bearings and other equipment are also easily damaged.
[0005] In view of the above problems, a universal joint coupling for slowing down a rolling mill is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0006] The utility model aims to provide a universal joint coupling for slowing down a rolling mill, and adopts the device to work, thereby solving the problems in the above-mentioned background that due to the rigid connection between the universal joint coupling and the rolling mill rollers, on the one hand, impact force is generated when the rollers bite into the rolled material for rolling, and on the other hand, shaking is generated when the universal joint itself rotates. The forces of the two are transmitted to the bracket pull rod, which makes the vibration amplitude of the universal joint coupling larger, which is easy to cause damage to the adjusting bolt, and the rocker arm device loses the lever adjustment function, resulting in uneven force on the two rollers on the rolling mill. The rollers have large vibrations and cannot be rolled to a qualified size. At the same time, the connecting rod, rocker arm, bearings and other equipment are also easily damaged.
[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] A universal joint coupling for a rolling mill includes a fixed block, a damping assembly is threadedly fixedly installed on the middle part of the upper end of the fixed block, a limiting assembly is threadedly fixedly installed on the upper end of the damping assembly, the damping assembly is used to adjust the center distance of the universal joint coupling, and the limiting assembly is used to protect the threaded connection at the upper end of the damping assembly.
[0009] Furthermore, the shock absorbing assembly includes a sleeve and a pressure cover arranged on one side of the sleeve, and an elastic element is movably installed in the inner cavity of the sleeve.
[0010] Furthermore, a threaded rod is inserted and installed in the middle of the elastic element, a fixing mechanism is threadedly installed on the outer surface of the threaded rod, and a washer is arranged at one end of the fixing mechanism.
[0011] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism comprises a mounting nut and an arc-shaped rod fixedly mounted around the middle of the outer wall of the mounting nut, and an expansion nut is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the arc-shaped rod.
[0012] Furthermore, the limiting assembly includes a hollow round cover and a hollow threaded cylinder fixedly installed in the middle of the lower end of the hollow round cover, and a shielding ring is fixedly installed around the lower end of the hollow round cover.
[0013] Furthermore, a docking round block is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper end of the hollow round cover, and handle columns are fixedly installed around the outer wall of the docking round block.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0015] The operator removes the adjusting nut and the pull rod in the universal joint coupling and the rolling mill roll connection device, installs the shock absorbing assembly and the fixed block, and connects them with the swing rod and the coupling ear shaft respectively. If the center distance of the universal joint coupling needs to be adjusted during use, the adjustment can be achieved by simply rotating the installation nut in the shock absorbing assembly. By improving the structural form of the universal joint coupling and the rolling mill roll connection device of the steel rolling production line and connecting them with the shock absorbing device, the vibration of the universal joint coupling can be effectively reduced, and the impact when the rolling mill roll bites into the rolled material can be reduced, thereby ensuring that the two rolling mill rolls are evenly stressed and run smoothly, and at the same time extending the service life of the connecting rod, the swing rod and the bearing. Practice has proved that the use of this shock absorbing device can effectively reduce the impact of the impact force generated when the rolling mill roll bites into the rolled material on the rolling mill, so that the two rolling mill rolls are evenly stressed and the bearings connecting the rolling mill and the rolling mill roll are avoided. On the other hand, it can slow down the shaking generated when the universal joint itself rotates, thereby ensuring the service life of the connecting rod and the swing rod, and finally ensuring the smooth operation of the rolling production line.
