[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, a measuring device for an automated rebar cutting equipment is disclosed. The measuring device of this application is used in conjunction with the rebar cutting equipment to limit the length of the rebar to be cut. The rebar cutting equipment includes a cutting device 5, a conveying structure 4, and the measuring device of this application. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the conveying structure 4 is a roller conveyor belt. The roller conveyor belt is composed of rollers, bearings, and a frame. The rollers are connected to the transmission structure and drive the rollers to rotate, thereby driving the rebar on the roller conveyor belt to move forward. The specific structure of the roller conveyor belt is prior art and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0031] The measuring device of this application includes a slide 1, a sliding platform 2 and a baffle 3; the slide 1 is set on the side of the material conveying structure 4 of the rebar cutting equipment; the slide 1 is set along the rebar conveying direction (i.e. the length direction of the material conveying structure 4);

[0032] The sliding platform 2 is snapped onto the slide rail 1 and slidably connected to the slide rail 1; the slide rail 1 provides a stable sliding track for the sliding platform 2.

[0033] The baffle 3 is hinged to the sliding platform 2. The middle part of the baffle 3 is hinged to the sliding platform 2. The side of the baffle 3 away from the slide rail 1 is connected to the cylinder 28. The cylinder 28 drives the baffle 3 to rotate up and down.

[0034] When conveying the cut rebar, the baffle 3 tilts upward and hangs above the conveying structure 4, without affecting the conveying of the rebar. When a certain length of rebar needs to be cut, the position of the sliding platform 2 is adjusted so that the sliding platform 2 is closer to or farther from the cutting device 5. The distance from the cutting device 5 to the baffle 3 is the length of the cut rebar. The cylinder 28 drives the baffle 3 to rotate downward and block the path of the rebar conveying. As the conveying structure 4 conveys, the rebar moves from the cutting device 5 to the baffle 3 and is finally intercepted by the baffle 3. At this time, the distance between the cutting device 5 and the baffle 3 is the length of the rebar to be cut. Moreover, the baffle 3 also plays a role in aligning the rebar. The rebars transported on the conveying structure 4 may be positioned too far forward or too far back and not in the same position. At this time, the baffle 3 can block the rebars, so that the rebars that are too far forward or too far back are neatly placed against the side of the baffle 3, aligning the rebars and facilitating the next cutting work, so that the cut rebars are of consistent length.

[0035] Multiple measuring devices can be installed along slide 1. The positions of multiple measuring devices can be preset to correspond to different cut lengths.

[0036] Furthermore, the slide 1 has a T-shaped cross-section; the sliding platform 2 includes a movable slider 21, a fixed slider 22, an adjusting handwheel 23, and a support bracket 24;

[0037] Both the movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 have an H-shaped cross-section. The movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 are respectively snapped onto the upper and lower sides of the slide rail 1. The H-shaped structure of the movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 cooperates with the T-shaped structure of the slide rail 1, so that the measuring device is snapped onto the slide rail 1 through the movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22. This structure can not only ensure that the sliding platform 2 slides smoothly on the slide rail 1, but also provide sufficient friction and stability when clamped.

[0038] The fixed slider 22 is fixedly installed on the support bracket 24 and located directly below the movable slider 21; the fixed slider 22 is snapped into the lower side of the slide rail 1;

[0039] The support bracket 24 is provided with a guide groove; the rear of the movable slider 21 is slidably connected to the guide groove; the front of the movable slider 21 is engaged with the upper side of the slide 1; the top of the movable slider 21 is connected to the adjusting handwheel 23.

[0040] The adjusting handwheel 23 is located on the top of the support bracket 24. The lower end of the adjusting handwheel 23 is provided with a threaded rod, which is threadedly connected to the support bracket 24. The threaded rod penetrates the top of the support bracket 24 and is connected to the top of the movable slider 21. Rotating the adjusting handwheel 23 drives the movable slider 21 to move up and down.

[0041] When the measuring device needs to be moved, rotate the adjusting handwheel 23 upwards to move the movable slider 21 upwards. At this time, the movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 will not clamp the slide rail 1, allowing the measuring device to be moved. When the measuring device is moved to the desired position, rotate the adjusting handwheel 23 downwards to move the movable slider 21 downwards. The movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 gradually approach each other, eventually clamping the slide rail 1, completing the clamping and positioning work. The movable slider 21, the fixed slider 22, and the adjusting handwheel 23 work together to allow the operator to easily adjust the position of the measuring device on the slide rail 1. When it is necessary to change the cutting length, simply rotate the adjusting handwheel 23 to easily move the measuring device and achieve precise positioning. This convenient adjustment method allows the equipment to quickly adapt to the diverse needs of different projects for rebar length.

[0042] Furthermore, a reinforcing bracket is also provided on the side of the supporting bracket 24. The reinforcing bracket is used to install the baffle 3 and to provide auxiliary reinforcement and support for the baffle 3.

[0043] The reinforcing bracket includes a first fixing plate 25, a second fixing plate 26, and a hinge shaft 27;

[0044] The first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 are fixed to the side of the support bracket 24 with a gap; the gap between the first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 is equal to the thickness of the baffle 3; the space between the first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 serves as the installation space for the baffle 3; the setting direction of the first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the material conveying structure 4, ensuring that the setting direction of the baffle 3 is also perpendicular to the transmission direction of the material conveying structure 4.

[0045] Both the first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 have through holes for installing the hinge shaft 27. The hinge shaft 27 passes through the first fixing plate 25, the baffle 3 and the second fixing plate 26 in sequence, and hinges the baffle 3 and the first fixing plate 25, the baffle 3 and the second fixing plate 26 together.

[0046] The first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 have a certain thickness to ensure strength. The first fixing plate 25 and the second fixing plate 26 are rectangular plate structures to maximize the contact area with the baffle 3, provide more support and reinforcement to the baffle 3, prevent the baffle 3 from deforming or displacing due to the impact of the steel bar when it comes into contact with the steel bar, and ensure the alignment accuracy of the steel bar.

[0047] Working principle:

[0048] Before cutting the rebar, first install the measuring device on the side of the conveying structure 4 of the rebar cutting equipment. According to the required rebar cutting length, rotate the adjusting handwheel 23 on the top of the bearing bracket 24. When rotating upward, the movable slider 21 rises, causing the movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 to release the slide rail 1. At this time, the sliding platform 2 can be moved along the slide rail 1 to a suitable position so that the distance from the cutting device 5 to the baffle 3 meets the preset length requirement. Then rotate the adjusting handwheel 23 downward, and the movable slider 21 descends until the movable slider 21 and the fixed slider 22 clamp the slide rail 1, thus completing the fixation of the measuring device position.

[0049] The rebar cutting device and conveying structure 4 are activated, and the rebar is conveyed forward on the conveying structure 4, such as the roller conveyor belt. Before the rebar approaches the measuring device, cylinder 28 drives baffle 3 to rotate downwards until baffle 3 is perpendicular to the plane of the conveying structure 4 and located on the rebar conveying path. The rebar continues forward and is intercepted by baffle 3. Due to the blocking and alignment effect of baffle 3, the ends of the rebar are neatly arranged on one side of baffle 3. At this time, the cutting device 5 operates to cut the rebar.

[0050] The cut steel bars continue to be conveyed outward by the conveying structure 4 to enter the subsequent processing or collection stage. At this time, the baffle 3 is tilted upward and suspended above the conveying structure 4 under the action of the cylinder 28, so as not to obstruct the transportation of steel bars.

[0051] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of this utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand this utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
