Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of strip steel pickling unit, in particular to a push-pull type pickling unit edge wire breakage monitoring device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The existing push-pull type pickling unit will cut the edge wire of the strip steel after hot rolling, thereby improving the quality of the strip steel product.

[0003] After hot rolling, the strip steel generally has a camber, and there is also a certain amount of deviation in the strip steel, thereby causing the width of the cut edge wire to change dynamically. After the edge wire is cut, it will be curled by the edge wire roller. The edge wire will have a certain tension during the curling process. Generally speaking, the speed of the edge wire roller has a certain proportional relationship with the conveying speed of the strip steel. However, due to the different thicknesses of the edge wire and the different positions of the edge wire on the edge wire roller during winding, the tension generated will also change. The change in the width of the edge wire will change the degree of stress, thereby causing the edge wire to be pulled off. When this situation occurs, it is necessary to stop the machine, and it will take about 5 minutes to resume production, which will seriously affect the quality of the pickling of the strip steel.

[0004] Although the existing edge wire curling motor can adjust the speed of the edge wire winding through the torque sensor to balance the tension value of the edge wire, thereby reducing the probability of edge wire breakage. However, due to the existence of the camber, the thickness of the edge wire will change, and when the width of the edge wire is small, the edge wire will also be pulled off. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0029] The following will be described in detail in combination with the accompanying Figures 1-4 The present application will be further described in detail.

[0030] The embodiment of the present application discloses a push-pull type pickling unit edge wire breakage monitoring device.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The push-pull type pickling unit edge wire breakage monitoring device comprises a light shield 1, a light source strip 2, an identification camera 3, a convex lens 4 and a stabilizing roller 5. The light shield 1 is erected at a position between the drying end and the edge wire cutting section of the pickling unit, used for shielding the strip below, and the light shielding shell is only provided with an opening at the bottom. The light shield 1 extends downward at both sides of the strip to abut against the frame body of the strip conveying equipment.

The identification camera 3 is two and is installed in the light shield and is located at the two ends of the light shield. The lens of the identification camera 3 is downwardly arranged and is located directly above the light source strip 2. The identification camera 3 is a CCD camera in this embodiment and can identify the length X1 of the light source strip 2 below. The required rotating speed value of the strip conveying is obtained through a formula input into the control system and the strip conveying speed is adjusted in real time. The light shield 1 is provided with a partition plate 11 which divides the light shield 1 into two parts and the identification camera 3 is located above the partition plate 11.

The circumferential outer wall of the stabilizing roller 5 is made of rubber.

[0033] The light shield 1 is divided into two parts which can be buckled by a vertical plane perpendicular to the conveying direction of the strip. The identification camera 3 and the partition plate 11 are located in one of the two parts. The two parts of the light shield 1 are buckled and fixed by bolts.

Two stabilizing rollers 5 are installed on the frame of the strip conveying line and are located on both sides of the light shield 1 and are in pressure contact with the upper surface of the strip. The circumferential outer wall of the stabilizing roller 5 is made of rubber.

[0034] The light source strip 2 is installed in the strip conveying line and is located below the strip opposite to the light shield 1. The identification camera 3 is two and is installed in the light shield and is located at the two ends of the light shield. The lens of the identification camera 3 is downwardly arranged and is located directly above the light source strip 2. The identification camera 3 is a CCD camera in this embodiment and can identify the length X1 of the light source strip 2 below. The required rotating speed value of the strip conveying is obtained through a formula input into the control system and the strip conveying speed is adjusted in real time. The light shield 1 is provided with a partition plate 11 which divides the light shield 1 into two parts and the identification camera 3 is located above the partition plate 11. The partition plate 11 is provided with a mounting hole 111 at the position opposite to the identification camera 3 and the convex lens 4 is placed in the mounting hole 111. The mounting hole 111 can hold the convex lens 4. The light shield 1 is divided into two parts which can be buckled by a vertical plane perpendicular to the conveying direction of the strip. The identification camera 3 and the partition plate 11 are located in one of the two parts. The two parts of the light shield 1 are buckled and fixed by bolts. The part of the light shield 1 provided with the identification camera 3 is fixed and arranged. The buckle plate 13 is located on the light shield provided with the identification camera 3. Two stabilizing rollers 5 are installed on the frame of the strip conveying line and are located on both sides of the light shield 1 and are in pressure contact with the upper surface of the strip. The circumferential outer wall of the stabilizing roller 5 is made of rubber.

[0035] Wherein, the strip steel width value monitored by the recognition camera 3 is X1, and the edge wire width X can be obtained by subtracting the preset strip steel cutting width value X2:

[0036]

[0037] The obtained X value is brought into the following formula, and the strip steel conveying speed value V to be adjusted can be obtained, which is also related to the material of the strip steel.

[0038] When the strip steel material is SPHC, the formula is:

[0039] V = 50X - 190

[0040] When the strip steel material is structural steel, the formula is:

[0041] V = 34X - 70

[0042] When the strip steel material is boron-containing C material, the formula is:

[0043] V = 54X - 220

[0044] Wherein, when the speed V of the strip steel conveying belt is greater than 185 m / min, the value of V is kept at 185 m / min.

[0045] As can be seen from the formula, after the edge wire width is increased through the self-adaptive adjustment of the edge wire roll winding speed by the torque sensor and the preset maximum tension of the system, the strip steel conveying speed is increased, which can improve the conveying efficiency of the strip steel and also ensure that the edge wire will not be broken. When the edge wire width is reduced, the tension value is unchanged, but the probability of edge wire breakage will increase. At this time, the strip steel conveying speed is reduced through formula calculation, thereby reducing the amount of edge wire provided, and the speed of the edge wire roll is also adaptively reduced, thereby ensuring the conveying efficiency of the strip steel while reducing the probability of edge wire breakage.

[0046] The implementation principle of the push-pull type pickling unit edge wire breakage prevention monitoring device is that the recognition camera 3 in the light shielding shell identifies the projection image of the strip steel reflected by the convex lens 4, and then calculates the width value of the current strip steel. After the system calculates the corresponding edge wire width, it is brought into the system formula to calculate the appropriate conveying speed of the strip steel at this time, and then cooperates with the winding speed of the edge wire roll to effectively reduce the probability of edge wire breakage and improve the product quality of the strip steel after passing through the pickling unit. The setting of the light shielding cover 1, the light shielding plate 12 and the partition plate 11 can effectively reduce the influence of external light sources on the monitoring of the strip steel width, and the stable roller 5 can reduce the disturbance of the strip steel, thereby improving the accuracy of the strip steel width monitoring.

[0047] The embodiments of the present application are preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application, and thus: any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
