Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steel processing, in particular to a U-shaped steel cooling pool with automatic loading and unloading. Background Technique

[0002] U-shaped steel refers to steel with a cross-section in the shape of "U", which is widely used in fields such as construction, bridges, and mechanical structures. Due to its structural stability and high strength, U-shaped steel plays an important role in various projects. The main function of the cooling pool is to cool the heat-treated steel, so that its temperature can be quickly reduced to a safe range.

[0003] When the existing cooling pool is in use, most of them clamp and fix the processed U-shaped steel through an external suspension device, then suspend it inside the cooling pool for cooling. After cooling, the U-shaped steel is taken out and the clamping and fixing of the U-shaped steel are released. Only after the disassembly of the U-shaped steel can the next batch of steel be processed. This method of loading and unloading requires workers to repeatedly clamp, fix, disassemble, and install the U-shaped steel, which is very inconvenient.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new U-shaped steel cooling pool with automatic loading and unloading to solve the above technical problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a U-shaped steel cooling pool with automatic loading and unloading.

[0006] The U-shaped steel cooling pool with automatic loading and unloading provided by the utility model includes: a cooling pool body, and a conveying component for loading and unloading steel is arranged inside the cooling pool body.

[0007] The conveying component includes support bars. There are two support bars, which are symmetrically distributed inside the cooling pool body. Conveyor shafts are rotatably connected between the two support bars. Driving chains are arranged on both sides of the outer part of the conveyor shafts, and the same conveyor chain is arranged between the two driving chains.

[0008] Two opposite surfaces of the two support bars are each provided with two limiting bumps distributed up and down. The limiting bumps are located in the middle of the driving chain. The outer wall of the upper limiting bump abuts against the top of the driving chain, and the outer wall of the lower limiting bump abuts against the inner bottom of the driving chain.

[0009] Preferably, a support frame is arranged on one side wall of the cooling pool body. A water guiding frame is arranged above the support frame. A connecting pipe is arranged above the water guiding frame, and a number of communicating spray heads are arranged inside the connecting pipe.

[0010] Preferably, a blower is installed at the bottom of the support frame. An air duct is provided at the output end of the blower, and the end of the air duct communicates with the inside of the connecting pipe.

[0011] Preferably, one side wall of the water guide frame extends into the cooling pool body, and a water guide groove is formed inside the water guide frame.

[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the water guide groove is inclined. The side of the water guide groove close to the cooling pool body is relatively lower, and a filter screen is provided at the position of the water guide groove inside the water guide frame.

[0013] Preferably, a number of uniformly distributed blocking strips are provided on the outer wall of the conveyor chain, and the outer wall of the blocking strip does not contact the side wall of the cooling pool body.

[0014] Preferably, driving sprockets are provided on both sides of the outer walls of the two conveyor shafts. The outer wall of the driving sprocket is meshed with the inner wall of the driving chain. The end of one of the conveyor shafts extends outside the support bar and is provided with a conveyor motor, and the conveyor motor is connected to the outer wall of the corresponding support bar.

[0015] Compared with the related art, the automatic loading and unloading U-shaped steel cooling pool provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. Through the setting of the conveying assembly of the present invention, during use, the circulation rotation of the conveyor chain can drive the steel to move and cool inside the cooling pool body. Therefore, while cooling the steel, the steel can be automatically loaded and unloaded without the need for workers to perform multiple installation and disassembly operations on the steel, thus improving the later use portability of the device.

[0017] 2. By driving the steel to move in the cooling pool, the steel can contact the cooling water at different positions in the cooling pool body and stir the cooling water to form flowing live water. Therefore, the temperature of the cooling water in the cooling pool body can be made more uniform, reducing the influence of the relatively high temperature of the cooling water around the steel on the cooling effect of the steel.

[0018] 3. After the cooling of the U-shaped steel is completed, the outside of the U-shaped steel can be blown by the nozzle to dry the cooling water on the surface of the U-shaped steel, thereby reducing the phenomenon that the water droplets on the surface of the cooled U-shaped steel drip randomly.

Specific implementation manners

[0028] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0029] The specific implementation of the present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , an automatically loading and unloading U-shaped steel cooling pond provided by an embodiment of the present utility model, the automatically loading and unloading U-shaped steel cooling pond includes: a cooling pond body 1, and a conveying assembly 2 for loading and unloading steel is provided in the cooling pond body 1.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 andFigure 5 The conveying assembly 2 includes support bars 21. There are two support bars 21, which are symmetrically distributed in the cooling pond body 1. A transmission shaft 212 is rotatably connected between the two support bars 21. Drive chains 22 are arranged on both sides of the outside of the transmission shaft 212, and a same transmission chain 23 is arranged between the two drive chains 22; Two opposite surfaces of the two support bars 21 are each provided with two limit bumps 25 distributed up and down. The limit bumps 25 are located in the middle of the drive chain 22. The outer wall of the upper limit bump 25 abuts against the top of the drive chain 22, and the outer wall of the lower limit bump 25 abuts against the inner bottom of the drive chain 22. Drive sprockets 213 are arranged on both sides of the outer wall of the two transmission shafts 212. The outer wall of the drive sprocket 213 is meshed and connected with the inner wall of the drive chain 22. The end of one of the transmission shafts 212 extends outside the support bar 21 and is provided with a transmission motor 211, and the transmission motor 211 is connected to the outer wall of the corresponding support bar 21.

[0032] It should be noted that: by the abutment of the limit bumps 25 and the drive chain 22, the drive chain 22 and the transmission chain 23 can be distributed in a V shape inside the cooling pond body 1. When the conveying assembly 2 works, it can drive the U-shaped steel on the transmission chain 23 to move in the cooling pond body 1. At this time, the moving U-shaped steel can be completely immersed in the cooling pond body 1, so that the cooling water can cool the U-shaped steel;

[0033] And through the cyclic rotation of the transmission chain 23, while cooling the U-shaped steel, the U-shaped steel can be automatically loaded and unloaded without the need for workers to perform multiple installation and disassembly operations on the steel, so the later use portability of this device can be improved;

[0034] During the process of cooling the U-shaped steel, the moving U-shaped steel in the cooling pond can stir and mix the cooling water, and then the temperature of the cooling water in the cooling pond body 1 can be made more uniform, reducing the influence of the relatively high temperature of the cooling water around the steel on the cooling effect of the steel.

[0035] In the embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 . A support frame 3 is provided on one side wall of the cooling pond body 1. Above the support frame 3 is provided a water guide frame 31. Above the water guide frame 31 is provided a communication pipe 4, and a number of communicating spray heads 43 are arranged inside the communication pipe 4. A blower 42 is installed at the bottom of the support frame 3. The output end of the blower 42 is provided with a communicating air guide pipe 41, and the end of the air guide pipe 41 is communicated with the inside of the communication pipe 4. One side wall of the water guide frame 31 extends into the cooling pond body 1, and a water guide groove 33 is opened inside the water guide frame 31.

[0036] It should be noted that: by installing a connecting pipe 4 on the water guide frame 31 and arranging a number of connected spray heads 43 inside the connecting pipe 4, after the conveying assembly 2 conveys the steel to the water guide frame 31, the steel on the water guide frame 31 can be blown by the spray heads 43, so as to realize the air drying of the steel surface, and further reduce the phenomenon that the water droplets on the cold surface of the U-shaped steel randomly drip after cooling.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 , the inner wall of the water guide groove 33 is inclined, the side of the water guide groove 33 close to the cooling pool body 1 is relatively low, and a filter screen 32 is provided at the position of the water guide groove 33 inside the water guide frame 31.

[0038] It should be noted that: through the setting of the filter screen 32, when the cooled U-shaped steel falls on the water guide frame 31, the impact force between the U-shaped steel and the filter screen 32 when it falls can make the water droplets on its outer wall flow down through the filter screen 32 into the water guide groove 33. Since the water guide groove 33 is of an inclined structure, the water droplets falling into the water guide groove 33 can flow back into the cooling pool body 1 through the water guide groove 33.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , a number of uniformly distributed blocking strips 24 are provided on the outer wall of the conveyor chain 23, and the outer wall of the blocking strip 24 does not contact the side wall of the cooling pool body 1.

[0040] It should be noted that: through the setting of the blocking strip 24, the blocking strip 24 can divide the conveyor chain 23 into multiple independent intervals. After the staff places the U-shaped steel on the conveyor chain 23, the blocking strip 24 can separate two adjacent U-shaped steels, reducing the phenomenon of abutting and sticking between two adjacent U-shaped steels during the transmission process, and further enabling a number of U-shaped steels to continuously move into the cooling pool body 1.

[0041] The working principle of the automatic loading and unloading U-shaped steel cooling pool provided by the present utility model is as follows;

[0042] When starting to use this cooling pool, the staff can place the U-shaped steel to be cooled on the conveyor chain 23. The working conveyor motor 211 can drive the conveyor shaft 212 to rotate. The conveyor shaft 212 can drive the drive chain 22 to rotate through the meshing between the drive sprocket 213 on the outer wall and the drive chain 22. During the rotation of the drive chain 22, the conveyor chain 23 can be driven to rotate synchronously. At this time, the conveyor chain 23 can realize the conveyance of the U-shaped steel. During this process, the blocking strip 24 on the conveyor chain 23 can divide the conveyor chain 23 into multiple independent intervals, enabling the conveyor chain 23 to continuously and independently circulate the conveyance of a number of U-shaped steels;

[0043] When the U-shaped steel moves into the cooling pond body 1, the cooling water in the cooling pond body 1 can cool the U-shaped steel. As the U-shaped steel moves, the cooling water can be agitated to make the cooling water mix. Through the mixing of the cooling water, the temperature of the cooling water in the entire cooling pond body 1 can be made more uniform. Therefore, the influence on the overall cooling effect of the cooling water caused by the increase in the temperature of the cooling water around the outside of the U-shaped steel can be reduced.

[0044] When the U-shaped steel falls onto the water guide frame 31 on the side wall of the cooling pond body 1 along with the conveyor chain 23, the water droplets contaminated on the outside of the U-shaped steel can first drip downward through the filter screen 32 into the water guide groove 33 and flow back into the cooling pond body 1 through the water guide groove 33.

[0045] The working fan 42 can input wind power into the nozzle 43 through the air guide pipe 41 and the connecting pipe 4, so that the wind power is sprayed outwards through the nozzle 43. The air sprayed out from the nozzle 43 can air-dry the water stains on the outer wall of the U-shaped steel, thereby reducing the excessive water stains on the outer wall of the cooled U-shaped steel and preventing the phenomenon of water stains dripping everywhere when the U-shaped steel is carried and transferred.

[0046] The circuits and controls involved in the present utility model are all prior arts and will not be elaborated here too much.

[0047] The above are only the embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model accordingly. All equivalent structural or equivalent process transformations made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are similarly included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
