Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the measurement of rebar length, and more particularly to a device for measuring threaded steel bar samples. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of rebar, the inspection of diameter deviation is a core part of the entire quality control process. This step determines the mechanical properties of the product, ensuring it meets the needs of actual engineering projects and also impacting project safety. Real-time diameter detection allows for rapid feedback of data to the production process, enabling precise adjustments to the roll gap and effectively reducing the scrap rate. Statistics show that every 1% reduction in deviation can save approximately 20 yuan per ton of steel.

[0003] However, most factories still use offline sampling inspection to determine the diameter deviation of rebar. Specifically, the manual inspection process includes three main steps: first, cutting a section of rebar to be inspected; second, accurately measuring the length of the cut rebar; and finally, accurately weighing the sample.

[0004] In this series of operations, accurately measuring the length of the rebar is crucial for determining the diameter deviation. However, in practice, the length of the rebar cut is usually more than 1 meter, and the rebar itself has poor straightness. When using calipers or tape measures to measure the length, the bending deformation of the rebar will cause measurement errors. These errors, after subsequent calculations, will result in a large deviation in the diameter deviation of the bar, making it difficult to truly reflect the actual quality of the product.

The upper V-shaped wheel can be raised and lowered to adjust the clamping force on the threaded steel.

[0013] Furthermore, the lower V-shaped wheel is rotatably mounted inside the frame via a support shaft. A sliding shaft groove is provided on the inner wall of the frame, and a sliding shaft is slidably mounted in the sliding shaft groove.

Detailed Implementation

The straightening carriage 3 and the measuring device 4 are slidably arranged on the guide rail 102.

[0031] Preferably, the clamping unit 2 includes a vertical plate 201 fixed on the base plate 101, a nut plate 202 on the vertical plate 201, a clamping screw 203 threadedly connected to the nut plate 202, and a V-shaped jaw 204 on the side of the vertical plate 201 facing the straightening trolley 3. During operation, the threaded steel bar 5 extends into the V-shaped jaw 204, and the bottom end of the clamping screw 203 applies force to the threaded steel bar 5. The clamping unit 2, with its vertical plate 201, nut plate 202, clamping screw 203, and V-shaped jaw 204, not only firmly clamps the threaded steel bar 5 but also allows adjustment of the clamping force via the clamping screw 203, accommodating threaded steel bars 5 of different diameters, thus enhancing the versatility and operational flexibility of the device.

[0032] Preferably, the traveling mechanism of the straightening trolley 3 includes a sliding block 313 slidably disposed on the guide rail 102. The traveling mechanism, through the cooperation of the sliding block and the guide rail, enables the straightening trolley to move smoothly on the base unit, reducing frictional resistance, improving operating efficiency, and providing a stable foundation for subsequent straightening and measurement work.

[0033] The drive mechanism of the straightening trolley 3 includes a U-shaped mounting base 301 installed on the top of the sliding block 313. A motor 302 is mounted on the U-shaped mounting base 301, with the motor shaft of the motor 302 horizontally positioned and a gear 303 mounted at the end of the motor shaft. A pad 103 is provided on the base plate 101, and a rack 104 is mounted on the pad 103. The gear 303 meshes with the rack 104 to form a gear and rack drive mechanism. By adopting a gear and rack drive mechanism, the precise movement of the straightening trolley is achieved by the motor driving the gear to rotate, ensuring the positioning accuracy and stability during the straightening process, and significantly improving the automation level and work efficiency of threaded steel straightening.

[0034] The adjustable clamping mechanism of the straightening trolley 3 includes a frame 304 mounted on top of the U-shaped mounting base 301. An upper V-shaped wheel 307 and a lower V-shaped wheel 306 are rotatably mounted within the frame 304. The upper V-shaped wheel 307 is vertically adjustable to adjust the clamping force on the threaded steel bar 5. Through the cooperation of the upper and lower V-shaped wheels, combined with the lifting function of the upper V-shaped wheel, the adjustable clamping mechanism can flexibly adjust the clamping force on the threaded steel bar, meeting the needs of different specifications of threaded steel bars while effectively avoiding damage or slippage caused by excessively tight or loose clamping.

[0035] Example 1: There are four straightening carriages 3, which are distributed between the clamping unit 2 and the measuring device 4 for straightening the threaded steel 5. An adjustable shim set is provided between the pad 103 and the base plate 101 for precisely adjusting the installation height of the transmission rack 104.

A sliding shaft groove 311 is provided on the inner wall of the frame 304, and a sliding shaft 308 is slidably mounted within the groove. An upper V-shaped wheel 307 is mounted on the sliding shaft 308. The sliding shaft 308 is driven to rise and fall by an adjusting screw 310. The adjusting screw 310 is threadedly connected to the top of the frame 304. The cooperative design of the sliding shaft and the adjusting screw enables precise lifting and lowering control of the upper V-shaped wheel. Simultaneously, the ball joint structure of the C-shaped support further enhances the flexibility and stability of the adjustment, improving clamping accuracy and straightening effect.

[0037] Example 2: The sliding shaft 308 of the straightening trolley 3 is connected to the adjusting screw 310 through the C-shaped support 312. The C-shaped support 312 has a downward-opening C-shaped structure, and the shaft holes symmetrically arranged on its two side walls form a rotatable connection with the two ends of the sliding shaft 308. The top center of the C-shaped support 312 has a connecting part, which is detachably connected to the bottom end of the adjusting screw 310 through a ball joint structure. The middle part of the adjusting screw 310 and the threaded hole at the top of the frame 304 form a helical transmission pair, and the top of the frame 304 is provided with a reinforcing rib to improve the structural strength at the threaded hole.

[0038] Preferably, the measuring device 4 includes a slider 401, which is slidably mounted on the guide rail 102. A backing plate 403 is mounted on the top of the slider 401. In use, the end of the threaded steel 5 abuts against the backing plate 403.

[0039] Example 3: The contact surface between the backing plate 403 and the end of the threaded steel bar 5 is a plane. This ensures close contact between the threaded steel bar 5 and the backing plate 403, increasing the contact area.

[0040] Preferably, a scale 105 is provided on the base plate 101 along its length, and an indicator head 402 is provided on the side wall of the back plate 403 facing the scale 105 for aligning the reading of the scale 105. The indicator head 402 includes a connecting part fixed to the back plate 403 and an indicator part connected to the connecting part, which is used for aligning the reading; the zero mark position of the scale 105 corresponds to the reference position when one end of the threaded steel bar 5 is fully inserted into the V-shaped jaws 204 of the clamping unit 2 and the other end abuts against the back plate 403.

[0041] The usage process of this utility model is described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and technical solutions:

[0042] 1. When the length of the rebar needs to be measured, first move all the straightening trolleys to the clamping unit side by controlling the motor.

[0043] 2. Then insert the threaded steel bar between the upper and lower V-shaped wheels of the straightening trolley (at this time, operate the adjusting screw to move the upper V-shaped wheel upward a certain distance to facilitate the insertion of the threaded steel bar).

[0044] 3. Then, after pressing one end of the threaded steel bar against the bottom of the V-jaw, operate the clamping screw to press the end of the threaded steel bar against the V-jaw and fix it in place.

[0045] 4. At this time, by controlling the motor of the straightening trolley, the straightening trolley slides out from the clamping unit end to the other end in one go from front to back, so that the straightening trolley can be evenly distributed on the entire length of the threaded steel.

[0046] 5. Then, operate the adjusting screw to make the upper V-shaped wheel move downwards along the sliding groove, achieving the purpose of clamping the threaded steel bar between the upper and lower V-shaped wheels. During the clamping process, the threaded steel bar is naturally straightened.

[0047] 6. Next, move the measuring device along the guide rail to the other end of the threaded steel bar and press it against the backing plate. At this time, take a reading through the indicator head on the measuring device to confirm the length of the threaded steel bar and complete the measurement of the threaded steel bar.
