Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of auxiliary protection devices for aluminum profile processing and production, in particular to a deformation detection component used in the process of aluminum profile movement and transportation. Background Art

[0002] As a modern alloy material, the development of aluminum profiles is closely tied to the progress of the aluminum industry. The production process primarily involves casting, extrusion, and coloring. With continuous technological advancements, the performance of aluminum profiles has been significantly improved, and their application areas are expanding. In addition to construction and transportation, aluminum profiles are also widely used in electronics, machinery, light industry, petroleum, chemical engineering, aviation, and aerospace. In recent years, China's aluminum industry has achieved remarkable results in technological innovation, actively introducing and developing new production technologies and equipment to improve production efficiency and product quality while reducing environmental pollution. At the same time, aluminum profile production processes are constantly being refined, such as through optimizing the cross-sectional shape and thickness of aluminum profiles to achieve lightweighting, and by incorporating sensors and communication technologies into the production and processing of aluminum profiles to enable intelligent manufacturing and management.

[0003] For each step in the production and processing of aluminum profiles, an important concern is the need to ensure the overall straightness of the aluminum profile. The reason is that, first, the straightness of the aluminum profile directly affects the dimensional accuracy of the product, especially as some slender rods or supporting components for frame structures. If the profile is bent or twisted, it may cause the finished product size to exceed the tolerance range, affecting assembly and performance. Secondly, straight aluminum profiles can ensure the stability and strength of the structure. When subjected to force, bent profiles are more likely to cause stress concentration, reducing the load-bearing capacity and service life of the structure. In addition, straight aluminum profiles are easy to automate and mechanized processing, improving production efficiency, while profiles with uncontrollable deformation may require additional straightening processes, increasing production costs and time.

[0004] At present, there are also some devices and methods that can realize the detection and analysis of the degree of deformation of aluminum profile products or raw materials. For example, a profile flatness detection platform disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent document with application number CN201921749830.9 includes a detection platform, a sliding cavity is opened on the right side of the detection platform, a transmission motor is fixedly embedded in the front side of the upper end of the sliding cavity, a gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the lower end rotating shaft of the transmission motor, a rack is meshed and connected on the right side of the gear, the right end of the rack is fixedly connected to the transmission plate, the right end of the transmission plate is fixedly connected to the connecting block, the middle part of the connecting block is opened with a threaded connection hole, the inner part of the connecting hole is movably connected with a distance sensor, the middle part of the upper and lower sides of the transmission plate are movably embedded with limit balls, the upper and lower ends of the right side of the sliding cavity are fixedly connected to positioning slides, and the middle part of the opposite end of the positioning slide is fixed with a first arc groove. The profile straightness testing platform, through the structure of the transmission plate, the positioning slide plate and the first circular arc groove, can make the transmission of the transmission plate more stable and ensure the straightness of the transmission plate when moving forward and backward. For example, an aluminum profile testing platform disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent document with application number CN202320434222.9 includes an aluminum profile testing platform, the bottom end of the aluminum profile testing platform is provided with a storage box, the two sides of the bottom end of the storage box are fixedly connected to casters, the front end of the top of the aluminum profile testing platform is provided with a flatness testing groove, the interior of the flatness testing groove is provided with a limit plate, the two sides of the top of the aluminum profile testing platform are fixedly connected to a support platform, the top of the support platform is fixedly connected to a support frame, the top of the support frame is fixedly installed with a hydraulic cylinder, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a testing plate, and the bottom end of the testing plate is installed with a pressure detector.

[0005] However, the applicant discovered that existing equipment platforms used to detect and analyze aluminum profile deformation, particularly bending, typically require a secondary mobile inspection of the profile product. This step creates the risk of further collision, deformation, and damage. Furthermore, for some long and heavy profiles, this inspection method is not only inefficient but also inconvenient.

[0006] In response to the above problems, the utility model provides a deformation detection component for the mobile conveying process of aluminum profiles, which is easy to install and use and has a wide range of application scenarios. It can not only accurately detect and process the flatness of statically placed aluminum profile products, but also monitor the deformation degree of profile products in the mobile conveying process in real time. It is extremely convenient and efficient, and ensures the morphological accuracy and quality of steel products. Utility Model Content

[0034] The following specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not limitations of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications to the embodiments as needed that do not contribute to creativity. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.

[0035] This solution is achieved through the following technical means:

[0036] Embodiment: In this embodiment, a specific implementation structure scheme of a deformation detection component for the moving and conveying process of aluminum profiles is given, and a brief expansion description is given below.

[0037] First of all, it should be explained that the assembly provided in this embodiment is mainly used for real-time monitoring and identification of aluminum profiles 1 workpieces that have a slender columnar structure and require extremely high straightness during installation or use. In particular, after the processing and production of such special aluminum profiles 1 are completed and shipped out of the factory, they still need to undergo a series of movements and transportation before they can finally be set at the target location for work. Of course, during the final support and hoisting and other debugging operations, it is also very easy to cause the aluminum profile 1 workpiece to bend and deform. Especially when the size of the aluminum profile 1 is large, it is difficult to observe its degree of deformation with the naked eye. If the re-inspection after installation or placement fails, rework or replacement will consume huge manpower and material resources.

[0038] The deformation monitoring assembly provided in this embodiment mainly comprises a front end assembly 2 installed at one end of the aluminum profile 1 and a rear end assembly 3 installed at the other end of the aluminum profile 1. Both sets of assemblies include a connection and positioning assembly 4 with the same or similar structure for connecting and fixing with the aluminum profile 1. Figure 2As shown, the connection and positioning assembly 4 includes a transition piece 401. The upper portion of the transition piece 401 is provided with a mounting connection portion 4011 for mounting and fixing the detection photoelectric generator 5 or the detection photoelectric receiver 6, while the lower portion is formed with at least one abutting positioning surface 4012 for contacting the surface of the aluminum profile 1. Side clamping and locking mechanisms 7 are also provided on both sides of the transition piece 401 for clamping and fixing the entire assembly to the aluminum profile 1 in the lateral direction.

[0039] For details, please refer to the attached manual. Figure 4 The connection and installation relationship between the connecting and positioning assembly 4 and the aluminum profile 1 from the cross-sectional perspective is as follows: the aforementioned transition connector 401 is formed with an adjustment plate extending downward, and a clamping block capable of vertically lifting and lowering is installed on the adjustment plate. When the abutting and positioning surface 4012 formed below the transition connector 401 abuts against the top surface of the aluminum profile 1, the clamping block is lifted upward until the top surface of the clamping block abuts against the bottom surface of the aluminum profile 1, thereby completing the vertical connection and fixation between this part of the mechanism and the aluminum profile 1. The lateral clamping and locking mechanism 7 formed on the transition connector 401 includes a downwardly bent extension section of the transition connector 401 and a movable locking member movably arranged on the aforementioned adjustment plate. For example, a threaded hole extending horizontally can be opened on the adjustment plate, and a bolt corresponding to the threaded hole is screwed into the threaded hole as a movable locking member. At this time, the lateral width of the transition connector 401 can be adjusted by rotating the movable locking member to achieve horizontal locking and fixation with the aluminum profile 1. In order to reduce damage to the aluminum profile 1 during the positioning and locking process, a flexible rubber pad can also be provided at the end of the bolt.

[0040] As a preferred structure, in order to improve the connection stability between the transition connector 401 and the aluminum profile 1, you can also refer to the attached manual. Figure 3 In the structure shown, the transition connector 401 is provided with a segmented structure including a first connecting section 402 and a second connecting section 403. For example, the first connecting section 402 and the second connecting section 403 can be slidably engaged and mounted on a guide rail located in the middle, and the aforementioned mounting connection portion 4011 is fixedly mounted on the guide rail. In this case, the first connecting section 402 and the second connecting section 403 can be pushed outward to expand the connection width between the structure and the aluminum profile 1 at that location, thereby improving the connection stability while reducing the error caused by slight local deformation of the mounting and fixing location during detection.

[0041] For the photoelectric generator 5 and the photoelectric receiver 6 for detection installed above the connection portion 4011 in the connection positioning assembly 4 at both ends of the aluminum profile 1, their structures and working principles can be referred to the attached manual. Figure 5 To expand the explanation.

[0042] Specifically, the photoelectric generating device 5 for detection includes a generating unit 501 capable of emitting a laser beam, and the photoelectric receiving device 6 for detection includes an identification and judgment unit 601 located at the rear end. At the same time, the identification and judgment unit 601 is electrically connected to an external warning signal light 9. When the identification and judgment unit 601 cannot detect the laser beam generated by the front-end generating unit 501, the warning signal light 9 will light up to alarm.

[0043] Inside the photoelectric receiving device 6 for detection at the rear end, a conductive path 602 is formed to allow the laser beam to pass through. Figure 5 For example, the conductive path 602 is formed by a front-end limiting hole 6021 and a rear-end limiting hole 6022 that are aligned with each other. When the assembly is mounted and fixed on the aluminum profile 1 and the degree of bending deformation between its two ends is within an acceptable range, the laser beam, which has a certain degree of slight deflection, can still completely pass through the conductive path 602 and illuminate the rear-end identification and judgment unit 601, without triggering the warning signal light 9 to sound an alarm. Conversely, if the overall bending deformation of the aluminum profile 1 exceeds the acceptable range, the degree of deflection between the two ends of the aluminum profile 1 will also increase. At this time, the laser beam emitted by the detection photoelectric generator 5 will be unable to pass out of the rear-end limiting hole 6022 when passing through the aforementioned conductive path 602. At this time, a warning signal will be triggered to send a corresponding signal to sound an alarm, prompting the staff to promptly check the mobile conveying process and analyze whether the aluminum profile 1 needs to be repaired or replaced.

[0044] Furthermore, in different usage scenarios, the degree of control required for the shape of the aluminum profile 1 workpiece is also different. Therefore, in this embodiment, an adjustment structure 8 is further provided that can change the maximum deflection angle range of the laser beam that can pass through the conductive path 602. Specifically, the main component of the adjustment structure is a detachable plug-in structure provided on the photoelectric receiving device 6 for detection located at the rear. By replacing different plug-ins, the aperture of the rear-end limiting hole 6022 located at the rear can be controlled, so that the passage of laser beams with different deflection degrees can be controlled, thereby achieving control of the standard range of the deformation degree of the detected aluminum profile 1 and realizing real-time and accurate detection and screening of the workpiece.

[0045] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, and such modifications or substitutions are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be subject to the scope of protection of the claims.
