[0016] 1. The utility model sets a positioning component, brings the roller into contact with the outer surface of steel, and moves the mechanical arm forward to drive the support plate and the inkjet box forward, so that the movable tube moves inward to drive the telescopic spring to generate elastic force, and uses a pressure sensor to measure the elastic force of the telescopic spring.

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the implementation mode of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] See also Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is an automatic coding robot for steel production, comprising: a coding component, the coding component comprising a support plate 13;
[0027] The positioning assembly includes a support tube 21 , a pressure sensor 22 , a telescopic spring 23 , a movable tube 24 , a support frame 25 , a rotating shaft 26 and a roller 27 .
[0028] The support tube 21 is fixedly connected to the four corners of the outer end of the support plate 13, the pressure sensor 22 is fixedly connected to the four corners of the outer end of the support plate 13, the telescopic spring 23 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pressure sensor 22, the movable tube 24 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the telescopic spring 23, the support frame 25 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the movable tube 24, the rotating shaft 26 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the support frame 25, and the roller 27 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 26.
[0029] The support tube 21 is used to support the movable tube 24, the pressure sensor 22 is used to measure the elastic force of the telescopic spring 23 and control the start of the inkjet box 14, the movable tube 24 is used to drive the telescopic spring 23 to compress, the support frame 25 is used to support the rotating shaft 26, the rotating shaft 26 is used to support the roller 27, and the roller 27 is used to contact the outer surface of the steel.
[0030] The inkjet coding assembly also includes a base 11, a mechanical arm 12 and a inkjet coding box 14; the mechanical arm 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the base 11, the support plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the mechanical arm 12, and the inkjet coding box 14 is fixedly connected to the center of the outer end of the support plate 13.
[0031] The base 11 is used to support the mechanical arm 12 , the mechanical arm 12 is used to drive the support plate 13 to move, and the support plate 13 is used to support the inkjet box 14 .
[0032] The pressure sensor 22 and the telescopic spring 23 are located inside the support tube 21 , and one end of the movable tube 24 is located inside the support tube 21 ; when the movable tube 24 moves inside the support tube 21 , the telescopic spring 23 is compressed.
[0033] The pressure sensor 22 is electrically connected to the inkjet box 14 through a line, and the roller 27 is located outside the inkjet box 14; when the pressure sensor 22 detects that the elastic force of the telescopic spring 23 is at a set value, the inkjet box 14 is controlled to perform inkjet.
[0034] Working principle: When coding on steel, the robot arm 12 drives the support plate 13 and the coding box 14 to move, and drives the roller 27 to contact the outer surface of the steel. After the roller 27 contacts the outer surface of the steel, the robot arm 12 moves forward, so that the movable tube 24 moves backward driven by the robot arm 12. At this time, the movable tube 24 moves inside the support tube 21, and drives the telescopic spring 23 to be compressed. The pressure sensor 22 measures the elastic force of the telescopic spring 23. When the elastic force of the telescopic spring 23 is at the set value, the pressure sensor 22 controls the coding box 14 to code. When the elastic force of the telescopic spring 23 is not at the set value, it means that the distance between the roller 27 and the coding box 14 does not meet the standard, that is, the distance between the coding box 14 and the outer surface of the steel does not meet the standard.
[0035] See also Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment is based on the above embodiment and also includes:

[0038] The slider 32 can move along the direction of the slide slot 31. When the slider 32 moves, it drives the baffle 33 to move. The baffle 33 is used to shield the outer surface of the inkjet box 14. The first fixed column 34 and the second fixed column 36 are used to support the connecting rod 35 respectively.
[0039] The baffle 33 is located outside the inkjet box 14 , and the inner side of the support tube 21 has a hollow structure opened relative to the second fixing column 36 , and the other end of the connecting rod 35 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the second fixing column 36 .
[0040] When the second fixing column 36 moves, the first fixing column 34 can be driven to move via the connecting rod 35 .
[0041] Working principle: When steel is being sprayed with code, when the movable tube 24 moves inside the support tube 21, the movable tube 24 drives the second fixed column 36 to move, and the second fixed column 36 drives the first fixed column 34 to move through the connecting rod 35, and the first fixed column 34 drives the baffle 33 to move outward, and the slider 32 makes the baffle 33 always move in contact with the outer surface of the support plate 13, and the baffle 33 moves outward to expose the spray box 14, so that the spray box 14 can spray code.
[0042] When the coding is completed, the movable tube 24 is reset under the elastic force of the telescopic spring 23, and the movable tube 24 drives the second fixed column 36 to reset.
