Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for ring rolling machines, and specifically discloses an oil temperature regulating device for ring rolling machines. Background Technology

[0002] A ring rolling mill is a forging and pressing equipment used to manufacture ring-shaped parts. It achieves reduced wall thickness, increased diameter, and shaped cross-sectional profiles through continuous localized plastic deformation, thereby producing ring-shaped mechanical parts of various shapes and sizes, such as bearing rings, gear rings, flanges, hubs, thin-walled cylindrical parts, wind turbine flanges, and high-neck flanges. Ring rolling mills generally require a hydraulic system, which consists of a hydraulic oil tank and pipelines. Its main functions include energy transmission, lubrication, cooling, and control. By circulating hydraulic oil through the pipelines inside the ring rolling mill, the oil not only absorbs and dissipates the heat generated by the system, thus providing cooling, but also maintains the stable operation of the hydraulic system, preventing performance degradation or malfunctions caused by high temperatures.

[0003] Currently, after prolonged operation, the hydraulic oil temperature of the ring rolling machine requires adjustment. Generally, on-site operators use a draining and refilling method for oil temperature adjustment; specifically, the operator drains about one-quarter of the old oil and, based on the ring rolling machine's operating parameters, injects an appropriate amount of room-temperature hydraulic oil into the hydraulic tank to ensure the hydraulic circuit of the ring rolling machine maintains a stable temperature. However, this existing technology requires the operator to shut down the ring rolling machine during actual operation, thus consuming significant production time. Furthermore, hydraulic oil leakage is inevitable during the draining process, which can contaminate the working environment and, in severe cases, easily lead to explosions, fires, and other accidents, posing a high safety risk.

[0023] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specific embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this patent, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0024] This specific embodiment provides an oil temperature regulating device for a ring rolling mill, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the device includes a support frame 1, which is the mounting structure for the entire device and has a hollow interior. An oil inlet pipe 2 is provided at the top of the support frame 1, which can be connected to the hydraulic oil tank of the ring rolling machine, allowing hydraulic oil from the tank to enter the device through the inlet pipe 2. A water inlet pipe 3 is provided on the side of the oil inlet pipe 2, which can be connected to the outlet pipe of the condenser, allowing low-temperature condensate from the condenser to enter the device.

[0025] The support frame 1 houses a first heat exchanger 4, a second heat exchanger 5, a third heat exchanger 6, and a fourth heat exchanger 7, all arranged horizontally. These heat exchangers are vertically and evenly distributed from top to bottom. Each heat exchanger has an internal cavity and is fitted with a cap at both ends. Connecting pipes 16, communicating with the internal cavities of each heat exchanger, are located on both sides of each heat exchanger. The connecting pipes 16 on the same side converge via a water collection pipe 17. One water collection pipe 17 connects to the inlet pipe 3, allowing the condensate from the condenser to flow sequentially into each heat exchanger. Water outlet pipes 8 are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the first heat exchange cylinder 4, the second heat exchange cylinder 5, the third heat exchange cylinder 6, and the fourth heat exchange cylinder 7. The water outlet pipes 8 are all Z-shaped tubular structures. The outlet end of the water outlet pipe 8 can be connected to the circulating water circuit of the condenser. The arrangement height of the outlet end of the water outlet pipe 8 is higher than the connection end, so as to facilitate the temporary storage of condensate in each heat exchange cylinder.

[0026] The first heat exchange cylinder 4, the second heat exchange cylinder 5, the third heat exchange cylinder 6, and the fourth heat exchange cylinder 7 are respectively fixedly installed with a first oil passage pipe 9, a second oil passage pipe 10, a third oil passage pipe 11, and a fourth oil passage pipe 12. Each oil passage pipe is located at the axial position relative to the heat exchange cylinder, which facilitates the heat exchange of hydraulic oil. The inlet ends of the first oil passage pipe 9, the second oil passage pipe 10, the third oil passage pipe 11, and the fourth oil passage pipe 12 are fixedly connected to a first oil collection pipe 18, which is connected to the oil inlet pipe 2. The first oil collection pipe 18 can evenly deliver hydraulic oil to each oil passage pipe. The outlet ends of the first oil passage pipe 9, the second oil passage pipe 10, the third oil passage pipe 11, and the fourth oil passage pipe 12 are fixedly connected to a second oil collection pipe 19, which is connected to the oil outlet pipe 13. The oil outlet pipe 12 is connected to the hydraulic oil tank of the ring rolling machine. After heat exchange, the hydraulic oil can re-enter the hydraulic oil tank of the ring rolling machine through the oil outlet pipe 12, thereby assisting the operation of the ring rolling machine.

[0027] The support frame 1 is equipped with an oil tank 20, which is located at the bottom of the support frame 1. The top of the oil tank 20 is equipped with a first guide pipe 21 connected to the second oil collection pipe 19, and the bottom side wall of the oil tank 20 is equipped with a second guide pipe 22 connected to the oil outlet pipe 13. The oil tank 20 can be used to temporarily store hydraulic oil, which can avoid the pipe pressure imbalance caused by temperature difference, thus acting as a buffer container. On the other hand, it can increase the volume of hydraulic oil that the overall device can hold, thereby improving the practicality of the overall device.

[0028] A centrifugal oil pump 23 is fixedly installed on the oil outlet pipe 13. The inlet end of the centrifugal oil pump 23 is connected to the second guide pipe 22 of the oil tank 20. By setting the centrifugal oil pump 23, the centrifugal oil pump 23 can transport the hydraulic oil flowing through the oil tank 20 from a low level to a high level.

[0029] In addition, the inlet height of the oil inlet pipe 2 is lower than the outlet height of the oil outlet pipe 13, and the inlet height of the water inlet pipe 3 is the same as the inlet height of the oil inlet pipe 2. The above structural design facilitates the flow of hydraulic oil from the bottom of the ring rolling machine hydraulic oil tank and allows the heated hydraulic oil to be re-injected from the top of the ring rolling machine hydraulic oil tank, thereby increasing the overall coordination of the device operation.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0031] Hydraulic oil from the ring rolling machine's hydraulic oil tank enters the device through the inlet pipe 2 and is guided through the first oil collection pipe 18 to the first oil passage pipe 9, the second oil passage pipe 10, the third oil passage pipe 11, and the fourth oil passage pipe 12. Condensate from the condenser enters the device through the inlet pipe 3 and is guided through the water collection pipe 17 to the first heat exchange cylinder 4, the second heat exchange cylinder 5, the third heat exchange cylinder 6, and the fourth heat exchange cylinder 7. The hydraulic oil can fully exchange heat with the condensate. After heat exchange, the hydraulic oil enters the oil container 20 and is then re-injected into the ring rolling machine's hydraulic oil tank by the centrifugal oil pump 23, ensuring the temperature of the hydraulic oil in the ring rolling machine's hydraulic oil tank remains within the standard range. The condensate, after heat exchange, returns sequentially to the condensate pipeline through each outlet pipe 8, thus forming a complete circuit.

[0032] In this invention, condensate enters sequentially from the bottom into the first heat exchange cylinder 4, the second heat exchange cylinder 5, the third heat exchange cylinder 6, and the fourth heat exchange cylinder 7, while hydraulic oil is sequentially introduced from the top into the first oil passage pipe 9, the second oil passage pipe 10, the third oil passage pipe 11, and the fourth oil passage pipe 12. This design avoids pressure imbalance caused by instantaneous heat exchange between high-temperature hydraulic oil and low-temperature condensate, and also slows down the flow rate of high-temperature hydraulic oil through the pipelines, allowing it to cool down beforehand and facilitating subsequent heat exchange operations.

[0033] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
