Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of billet production equipment, and in particular to a billet transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] Steel billets are products obtained by casting molten steel produced in a steelmaking furnace. Steel billets are semi-finished products in the production of steel products and are generally not available for commercial use. In terms of shape, they are mainly divided into slabs, which have a larger ratio of width to height and are mainly used for rolling plates; and square billets, which have equal or similar width and height and are mainly used for rolling structural steel and wire rods.

[0003] Steel billets are heated and rolled to obtain steel products. Therefore, steel billets need to be hoisted onto transfer vehicles and transported to the next process for subsequent processing. Steel billet transfer vehicles are an indispensable device in the steel billet transfer process.

[0004] In related technologies, billet transfer within the plant area typically uses billet transfer flatcars, on which the billets are usually placed. These flatcars provide convenient transfer of billets; however, when the flatcar experiences bumps or large rotations, the billets are prone to slipping or even detaching from the flatcar, posing a certain safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0005] To improve the stability of billet transfer process, this application provides a billet transfer device.

[0006] The billet transfer device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A billet transfer device includes a transfer frame with multiple positioning beams and multiple support beams mounted on it. The positioning beams and support beams are arranged along the length of the transfer frame and are spaced apart. Multiple positioning blocks are slidably connected to the positioning beams and slide along the length of the positioning beams. Each positioning block is provided with a fixing component for fixing the positioning block to the positioning beam. The rear end of the transfer frame is provided with a positioning plate for pressing the billet onto the transfer frame. The transfer frame is provided with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the positioning plate.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, steel billets can be placed on multiple support beams and multiple positioning beams simultaneously. Then, by moving the positioning blocks, two adjacent positioning blocks abut against the two sides of the steel billet. Subsequently, the positioning blocks are fixed to the positioning beams by the fixing components. After all steel billets are placed, the positioning plate is pressed onto the steel billet by the adjustment mechanism, thereby further restricting the movement of the steel billet on the transfer frame. This can improve the stability of the steel billet during the transfer process and reduce the possibility of displacement of the steel billet on the transfer frame.

[0009] Optionally, the positioning beam is provided with a limiting groove along the length of the positioning beam, and the positioning block is slidably connected in the limiting groove.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding direction of the photo paper positioning block in the limiting groove can be controlled, and the stability of the positioning block on the positioning beam can be improved.

[0011] Optionally, the fixing assembly includes a plurality of fixing bolts threaded onto the positioning block, the shank of which passes through the positioning block and is threaded onto the positioning beam.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the shank of the fixing bolt can be disengaged from the positioning beam by rotating the fixing bolt, thereby canceling the fixing on the positioning beam of the positioning block.

[0013] Optionally, the upper end of the support beam is provided with a protective plate arranged along the length of the support beam, and the protective plate is provided with a locking assembly for fixing the protective plate to the support beam.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the support beam can be protected by a protective plate, reducing the occurrence of wear and tear on the support beam.

[0015] Optionally, the locking assembly includes a locking bolt threaded to the protective plate, the shank of which is threaded to the support beam.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking bolt can be rotated to disengage it from the support beam, thereby allowing the protective plate to be removed from the support beam.

[0017] Optionally, the adjustment mechanism includes a right-angle abutment plate, the positioning plate is placed inside the right-angle abutment plate, the right-angle abutment plate is provided with an adjustment cylinder for driving the positioning plate to rise or fall, the adjustment cylinder is fixedly connected to the right-angle abutment plate, the telescopic end of the adjustment cylinder passes through the right-angle abutment plate and is fixedly connected to the positioning plate, and one side of the right-angle abutment plate is provided with a moving component for driving the right-angle abutment plate to move on the transfer frame.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the moving component can drive the direct contact plate to move, so that the right-angle contact plate restricts the position of the billet end. Then, the positioning plate can be lowered by adjusting the cylinder and the billet can be pressed onto the transfer frame.

[0019] Optionally, a rubber abutment plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the positioning plate.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the friction between the steel billet and the positioning plate can be increased by the rubber abutment plate, and the steel billet can be protected.

[0021] Optionally, the moving component includes a moving cylinder, which is fixedly connected to the transfer vehicle frame, and the telescopic end of the moving cylinder is fixedly connected to the right-angle abutment plate.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the extension and retraction of the moving cylinder can be controlled to make the right-angle contact plate slide on the transfer frame.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. By moving the positioning blocks, two adjacent positioning blocks abut against the two sides of the billet. Then, the positioning blocks are fixed to the positioning beam by the fixing components. After all the billets are placed, the positioning plate is pressed onto the billet by the adjusting mechanism, thereby further restricting the movement of the billet on the transfer frame. This can improve the stability of the billet during the transfer process and reduce the displacement of the billet on the transfer frame.

[0025] 2. The locking bolts can be rotated to disengage them from the support beam, allowing the protective plate to be removed from the support beam.

[0026] 3. The friction between the steel billet and the positioning plate can be increased by the rubber abutment plate, which also protects the steel billet. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 2 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0031] An embodiment of this application is: a billet transfer device, referring to... Figure 1The system includes a transfer frame 1. In this embodiment, the transfer frame 1 is a frame for holding steel billets in the prior art, which is usually used in conjunction with a tractor unit in the factory area.

[0032] Multiple positioning beams 11 and multiple support beams 12 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the transfer frame 1. The multiple positioning beams 11 and multiple support beams 12 are equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the transfer frame 1. The positioning beams 11 and support beams 12 are spaced apart, and both the positioning beams 11 and support beams 12 are arranged along the width direction of the transfer frame 1.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A limiting groove 111 is provided on the positioning beam 11 along the length direction of the positioning beam 11, and the opening of the limiting groove 111 is smaller than the bottom of the limiting groove 111. Multiple positioning blocks 2 are slidably connected within the limiting groove 111; in this embodiment, two positioning blocks 2 are provided. The positioning blocks 2 can slide along the length direction of the limiting groove 111, and a fixing component 3 is provided on the positioning blocks 2 for fixing the positioning blocks 2 to the positioning beam 11.

[0034] The fixing component 3 includes a plurality of fixing bolts 31 threadedly connected to the positioning block 2. In this embodiment, two fixing bolts 31 are provided. The shank of the fixing bolt 31 passes through the positioning block 2 and is threadedly connected to the positioning beam 11.

[0035] Therefore, by rotating the fixing bolt 31, the shank of the fixing bolt 31 can be disengaged from the positioning beam 11, thereby removing the fixing of the positioning block 2 to the positioning beam 11. This allows the steel billet to be placed simultaneously on multiple support beams 12 and multiple positioning beams 11. Then, by moving the positioning block 2, adjacent positioning blocks 2 abut against the sides of the steel billet. Finally, by rotating the fixing bolt 31, the positioning block 2 is fixed to the positioning beam 11.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 The upper end of the support beam 12 is provided with a protective plate 6, which is arranged along the length of the support beam 12. The upper end surface of the protective plate 6 is at the same height as the upper end surface of the positioning beam 11. The protective plate 6 completely covers the upper end of the support beam 12. The protective plate 6 is provided with a locking assembly 7 for fixing the protective plate 6 to the support beam 12.

[0037] The locking assembly 7 includes a plurality of locking bolts 71 threaded onto the protective plate 6. The shank of each locking bolt 71 is threaded onto the support beam 12. Thus, by rotating the locking bolts 71, the locking bolts 71 can be disengaged from the support beam 12, thereby allowing the protective plate 6 to be removed from the support beam 12.

[0038] The rear end of the transfer frame 1 is provided with a positioning plate 4 for pressing the steel billet onto the transfer frame 1. The positioning plate 4 is rectangular and parallel to the upper surface of the transfer frame 1. The transfer frame 1 is provided with an adjustment mechanism 5 for adjusting the position of the positioning plate 4.

[0039] The adjustment mechanism 5 includes a right-angle abutment plate 51, the cross-section of which is set at a right angle. The right-angle abutment plate 51 is slidably connected to the transfer frame 1 and can only slide along the length of the frame. The positioning plate 4 is placed inside the right-angle abutment plate 51, and the right-angle abutment plate 51 is provided with an adjusting cylinder 52 for driving the positioning plate 4 to rise or fall. The extension and retraction direction of the adjusting cylinder 52 is perpendicular to the upper end face of the transfer frame 1. The adjusting cylinder 52 is fixedly connected to the right-angle abutment plate 51, and the extension and retraction end of the adjusting cylinder 52 passes through the right-angle abutment plate 51 and is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 4.

[0040] A moving assembly 53 is provided on one side of the right-angle abutment plate 51 for moving the right-angle abutment plate 51 on the transfer frame 1. The moving assembly 53 includes a moving cylinder 531, and in this embodiment, two moving cylinders 531 are provided. The moving cylinders 531 are fixedly connected to the transfer frame 1, and the extension and retraction direction of the moving cylinders 531 is parallel to the length direction of the transfer frame 1. The extension and retraction ends of the moving cylinders 531 are fixedly connected to the right-angle abutment plate 51.

[0041] The extension and retraction of the moving cylinder 531 can be controlled to make the right-angle abutment plate 51 slide along the length of the transfer frame 1 on the transfer frame 1.

[0042] Therefore, once all the steel billets are placed on the transfer frame 1, the moving cylinder 531 can be controlled to drive the right-angle abutment plate 51 to abut against the end of the steel billet. Then, the moving cylinder 531 can be controlled to extend, so that the moving cylinder 531 presses the positioning plate 4 onto the steel billet.

[0043] To reduce wear on the steel billet caused by the positioning plate 4, a rubber abutment plate 8 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the positioning plate 4. The moving assembly 53 includes a moving cylinder 531, which is fixedly connected to the transfer frame 1, and the telescopic end of the moving cylinder 531 is fixedly connected to the right-angle abutment plate 51.

[0044] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
