Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel reinforcement construction technology, specifically, to a device that can efficiently collect steel bars processed by a straightening and cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the construction mileage of urban elevated bridges and highways has been increasing, and as time goes by, the task of steel bar processing and production has become increasingly prominent.

[0003] Currently, the most common method for straightening and cutting steel bars is to use intelligent straightening and cutting machines. Since bridge engineering requires a large number of straight steel bars, the use of straightening and cutting machines is also frequent. Therefore, using CNC straightening and cutting machines can save labor costs, increase production efficiency, improve the processing accuracy of steel bars, meet the design quality requirements, and this highly automated CNC straightening and cutting machine is very durable.

[0004] When using a CNC rebar straightening and cutting machine, a whole coil of rebar needs to be placed into the machine. The processing quantity and size are set on the equipment before starting the machine to process the rebar. Generally, the processed rebar will fall directly to the ground. The subsequent work of sorting the rebar is done manually by the staff. It is still necessary to repeat the work of collecting and packing the rebar, and the work of collecting and sorting is difficult and time-consuming.

[0005] Mechanization is difficult and costly to replace this part of the sorting work. Therefore, under the premise of manual labor, designing reasonable tools to save manpower and improve efficiency is a more feasible solution. To this end, those skilled in the art need to design an auxiliary device to improve the efficiency of steel bar collection and sorting and save manpower. Utility Model Content

[0029] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a device for efficiently collecting steel bars processed by a straightening and cutting machine includes a support 1, a collection unit 2, a control unit 3, and a bracket unit 4.

[0031] The collecting unit 2 is located at the top of the support 1. The collecting unit 2 includes a U-shaped groove. The front side wall of the U-shaped groove is hinged to the bottom of the groove. The U-shaped groove is used to connect to the output end of the straightening and cutting machine and temporarily store the reinforcing bars. Specifically, in this embodiment, the U-shaped groove is formed by splicing an angle steel 21 and a channel steel 22. The angle steel can be 10*10cm angle steel, and the channel steel can be 5# channel steel. The two sides of the angle steel 21 form the bottom edge and the rear side edge of the U-shaped groove. The channel steel 22 forms the front side edge of the U-shaped groove. The channel steel 22 is hinged to the end plates 48 located at both ends. The actuating end of the linkage mechanism is connected to the channel steel 22 to drive the channel steel to rotate. The lower end of the channel steel 22 can be opened by swinging, so that the front end of the U-shaped groove can open an opening and allow the reinforcing bars to slide down.

[0032] The control unit 3 includes a foot pedal 31 and a linkage mechanism. The foot pedal controls the flipping of the front sidewall of the U-shaped groove through the linkage mechanism to open the U-shaped groove. Specifically, in this embodiment, the linkage mechanism includes a first link 32 and a second link 33. The middle part of the first link 32 is hinged to the base. The foot pedal 31 is installed at the front end of the first link 32. The rear end of the first link 32 is hinged to the bottom end of the second link 33. The top end of the second link 33 is hinged to the eccentric position of the channel steel 22 so as to drive the flipping of the channel steel 22 through the foot pedal 31. The foot pedal 31 is made of 10# channel steel, and the first link 32 and the second link 33 are made of C32 threaded steel. The hinge position is completed by a sleeve.

[0033] In order to control the height of the foot pedal and make it easier for people to step on it, the first connecting rod 32 is inclined downward at both ends with the middle hinge as the boundary, forming a connecting rod with an obtuse angle to reduce the height of the foot pedal.

[0034] The bracket unit 4 includes a base 41 and a bracket 42 disposed at the bottom of the support. The bracket 42 is disposed on the base. In this embodiment, the support 1 and the bracket unit 4 share the base 41. The base 41 includes at least two parallel H-beams 43. 20a H-beams are used. The bracket forms a slot with an open top, and the slot of the bracket is directly opposite the front opening of the collecting unit, used to store fallen reinforcing bars in the bracket. In this embodiment, the bracket 42 includes a stop post disposed at the top of the H-beam. The stop post, the inclined post, and the H-beam form a slot-shaped bracket.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the support also includes uprights 44, inclined columns 45, and crossbeams 46. Each I-beam 43 has an upright 44 welded to its back. The upper end of each I-beam 43 is connected to the top of the upright 44 by the inclined columns 45 to form a triangular frame. Both the uprights and inclined columns are made of I-beams, and the crossbeams can be made of square steel. The triangular frames are connected together by the crossbeams 46. The tops of each triangular frame are connected together by horizontally laid square steel 47. The collecting unit is installed based on the square steel 47, that is, the bottom of the angle steel 21 is welded to the top of the square steel 47, and the channel steel 22 is hinged to the end plates 48 at both ends.

[0036] The inclined column 45 is located between the U-shaped groove and the bracket, forming a guide frame for the sliding of the reinforcing bars.

[0037] Because the U-shaped groove at the top is prone to spontaneously opening due to the vibration of the steel bars when temporarily storing them, a locking wrench 5 is provided on the base corresponding to the first connecting rod to ensure safety. The locking wrench includes a rotating shaft 51, a wrench 52 and a positioning rod 53. The rotating shaft 51 is rotatably engaged with the base. The wrench 52 is located at the top of the rotating shaft. The positioning rod 53 is located in the middle of the rotating shaft. The positioning rod 53 rotates to the first connecting rod to limit the upward swing of the first connecting rod.

[0038] In practical use, the device is installed on the output side of the straightening and cutting machine. After the processed steel bars are cut, they fall into the U-shaped groove at the top. After a certain number of steel bars are collected in the top U-shaped groove, the foot pedal is stepped on to open the U-shaped groove, and the steel bars roll onto the bracket below. The size of the bracket is much larger than the space of the top collection unit. After a certain number of steel bars are accumulated in the bracket, they are bundled and packaged by the staff and transferred to the finished product area for storage.

[0039] This device significantly reduces the workload of collecting cut steel bars, improves work efficiency, reduces manual labor, and reduces material waste.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that: the preferred embodiments of this patent have been described in detail above, but this patent is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this patent.
