Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a tool for cutting corners on cast billets, belonging to the technical field of continuous casting billet production equipment. Background Technology
[0002] During continuous casting, factors such as improper control of casting temperature and casting speed, slag entrapment, and excessive secondary cooling strength can easily lead to defects such as corner cracks and corner depressions at the corners of the billets. Billets with corner defects can affect the stability of subsequent forging and rolling processes. These defects can usually be removed by corner trimming, improving the quality of the continuously cast billets. Currently, some steel companies use manual methods for corner trimming, employing acetylene torches to remove corner defects. This method is labor-intensive, involves harsh working conditions, has a high risk factor, and produces inconsistent cutting quality, severely impacting the quality of the continuously cast billets and subsequent production. Improvement is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

This billet corner cutting tool can effectively cut off both corners of the billet at the same time. It can switch between manual and automatic operation, reduce the labor intensity of workers, has a fast cutting speed, controllable cutting angle, adapts to different cross-sections, and has low cost.
[0004] The technical solution to the above technical problem is:
[0005] An efficient billet corner cutting tool includes a track, connecting rods, a moving trolley, track wheels, a cutting gun holder, and a cutting gun. Two tracks are placed parallel to each other on the billet surface, and multiple connecting rods connect the two tracks vertically. The moving trolley is a rectangular flat plate placed on top of the tracks. Track wheels are installed at the four corners of the lower surface of the moving trolley, and the track wheels are in rolling contact with the tracks. Two cutting gun holders are installed on both sides of the upper surface of the moving trolley, and two cutting guns are fixed on the cutting gun holders. The acetylene connector and oxygen connector of the cutting gun are connected to the acetylene pipeline and the oxygen pipeline, respectively. The cutting nozzle of the cutting gun is inclined and opposite to the two edges of the billet.
[0006] The aforementioned high-efficiency billet corner cutting tool has an adjusting sleeve fixed to the surface of the moving trolley. The adjusting sleeve is perpendicular to the running direction of the moving trolley. Two telescopic rods are respectively inserted into the inner holes at both ends of the adjusting sleeve. The telescopic rods and the inner holes of the adjusting sleeve are in a sliding fit. There are threaded holes on the side walls at both ends of the adjusting sleeve. Fastening bolts are connected to the telescopic rods by tightening through the threaded holes. The front ends of the two telescopic rods are respectively threaded holes. The rear end of the cutting gun holder has a shaft hole that is opposite to the threaded hole at the front end of the telescopic rod. The angle adjustment knob passes through the shaft hole of the cutting gun holder and is tightened to the threaded hole of the telescopic rod. The rear end of the cutting gun holder and the front end of the telescopic rod are in a rotating fit.
[0007] The aforementioned efficient billet cutting tool has a push rod at the rear of the flat plate of the moving trolley, which is perpendicular to the flat plate of the moving trolley. A traction hook is fixed at the front of the flat plate of the moving trolley, and the traction hook is connected to the traction rope hook of the winch.
