Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rolling mills, in particular to a flying plate protection control device during the rolling process. Background Art
[0002] During normal operation, the rolling mill needs to unwind the pickled coil. The existing rolling mill unwinds the coil from the entrance unwinder and rolls it to the exit tension roller. However, when rolling to the end of the coil, it is difficult to control the distance from the tail of the coil to the working roller. If the distance is too long, the production yield will be low and fail to meet the company's requirements.
[0003] In actual operation, in order to improve the production yield, the tail of the plate is kept as short as possible. However, after all, on-site operators are manual operators, and it is inevitable that mistakes will easily cause the plate to fly, which will lead to damage to the working roll, scratches on the surface of the steel coil, and loose steel coils. In severe cases, it will also cause damage to the back roll, which will cause serious losses to the company. Utility Model Content

It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0024] In order to better illustrate the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] It should be clear that the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present application.

It should also be understood that the term "and / or" used herein refers to and includes any or all possible combinations of one or more associated listed items.
[0027] In addition, in this application, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" refers to two or more. "And / or" describes the relationship between associated objects, indicating that three possible relationships exist. For example, "A and / or B" can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, or B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.
[0028] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model discloses a flying plate protection control device during the rolling process, comprising: a first detection unit 10, a second detection unit 20 and a rolling mill 30 are sequentially arranged along the rolling direction of the cold rolling line, wherein the first detection unit 10 is used to generate a first signal when no steel plate is detected; the second detection unit 20 is used to generate a second signal when no steel plate is detected; a PLC control unit, which is electrically connected to the first detection unit 10 and the second detection unit 20, and is used to receive and generate a shutdown signal based on the first signal and the second signal; the PLC control unit is also electrically connected to the rolling mill 30, and is used to send a shutdown signal to the rolling mill 30 to control the rolling mill 30 to stop.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present application innovatively sets a first detection unit 10 and a second detection unit 20 at the upstream position of the rolling mill 30, and uses the first detection unit 10 and the second detection unit 20 to detect the position of the steel plate and feed back the signal to the PLC control unit, so as to control the rolling mill 30 to stop according to the signal, thereby preventing flying plates while ensuring the product yield.
[0030] In one embodiment, the first detection unit 10 is a CPC in the cold rolling line. This embodiment utilizes the CPC in the cold rolling line to detect the steel plate through the photoelectric sensor of the CPC to determine whether there is a steel plate passing through the CPC; when the CPC cannot detect the steel plate, it generates a first signal and transmits the first signal back to the PLC control unit.
[0031] In one embodiment, the rolling mill 30 is equipped with work rolls 310 and a thickness gauge 320, wherein the thickness gauge 320 is disposed upstream of the work rolls 310. The second detection unit 20 is disposed at the thickness gauge 320 and includes a light emitter and a light receiver. In this embodiment, the light emitter and light receiver detect the steel plate at the thickness gauge 320 to determine whether a steel plate passes through the thickness gauge 320 (i.e., upstream of the work rolls 310). When the light receiver receives light emitted by the light emitter, indicating that no steel plate is detected, a second signal is generated and transmitted as feedback to the PLC control unit.
[0032] It should be noted that both the first detection unit 10 and the second detection unit 20 use optical detection sensors for detection, and the signal is fed back to the PLC control unit in the form of "high level" and "low level". This application does not limit the acquisition and processing methods of the above signals.
[0033] Furthermore, the distance between the first detection unit 10 and the working roll 310 is D1, and the distance between the second detection unit 20 and the working roll 310 is D2, where D1 is set larger than D2. In this embodiment, by arranging the first detection unit 10 and the second detection unit 20 at different positions, the distance between the first detection unit 10 and the working roll 310 is correspondingly different from the distance between the second detection unit 20 and the working roll 310. This allows the steel plate to be inspected at two different positions in front of the working roll 310, achieving dual protection. Even if a problem occurs in one of the detection units, the flying plate phenomenon will not occur.
[0034] In one embodiment, the flying plate protection control device during rolling further includes a display screen 50, which is electrically connected to the PLC control unit. The display screen 50 includes a display diagram simulating the cold rolling line, which displays the real-time status of the second detection unit 20. This embodiment utilizes the display screen 50 to obtain parameter data from the PLC control unit and displays it on the display screen 50, allowing the operator to see in real time whether the second detection unit 20 is functioning properly. Furthermore, the display screen 50 includes a display diagram simulating the cold rolling line, which displays the real-time status of the second detection unit 20, allowing the operator to quickly understand the detection status of the second detection unit 20.
[0035] In one embodiment, in one embodiment, the cold rolling line includes an entrance uncoiler 610, a leveler 620, an entrance tension roller 630 and an exit tension roller 640, the entrance uncoiler 610, the leveler 620 and the entrance tension roller 630 are all located upstream of the first detection unit 10, and the exit tension roller 640 is located downstream of the rolling mill 30.
[0036] In this embodiment, the steel coil is uncoiled by the entrance uncoiler 610 and transported to the leveler 620. The leveler 620 leveled the steel plate, and the steel plate passed through the first inspection unit 10, the second inspection unit 20, and the thickness gauge 320 in sequence before entering the rolling mill 30 to be rolled by the working roll 310.
[0037] In one embodiment, the PLC control unit is a Mitsubishi Q series PLC controller.
[0038] The working principle of the flying plate protection control device during the rolling process of the present application is to use the on-site CPC's own photoelectric sensor for detection. It can detect whether there is a steel plate on it. When no steel plate is detected, a first signal will be output. By using the first signal and measuring the distance between the CPC and the working roll 310 and the set speed of the rolling mill 301pss at the end, a stop signal can be generated immediately or with a delay of 9 seconds to stop the rolling mill 30Q-STOP from working, thereby achieving the first level of protection to prevent flying plates.
[0039] Furthermore, the present application also includes a second level of protection: a second detection unit 20 is added at the thickness gauge 320 for detection, and it is used to detect whether there is a steel plate on it. By measuring the distance between the thickness gauge 320 and the working roll 310 and the set speed of the rolling mill 301pss at the end, a stop signal can be generated immediately, or a stop signal can be generated with a delay of 0.5 seconds to stop the rolling mill 30N-STOP from working, thereby achieving a second level of protection, preventing the flying plate from approaching the working roll 310 while ensuring the product yield.
[0040] It should be noted that the above delays of 9 seconds and 0.5 seconds can be adjusted and may vary depending on the actual situation.
[0041] Based on the disclosure and teachings of the above description, those skilled in the art may also make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and any modifications and variations of the present invention should also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention. In addition, although certain specific terms are used in this description, these terms are for convenience of description only and do not constitute any limitation to the present invention.
