TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to stainless steel continuous annealing pickling unit online automatic detection field especially, it is a kind of online automatic detection automatic paper blowing device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Because the tension requirement of steel coil is different for different production processes in cold rolling mill, process paper is required to be inserted into the steel coil to prevent the rubbing between steel plates caused by tension matching problem, so as to ensure the surface quality of steel plate. For example, the patent with publication number CN101658880A discloses a wide steel coil slitting paper padding method, the width of the process paper is selected according to the width of the slitting finished steel coil, the width of the process paper is equal to the width of the slitting steel coil or within 5mm less than the width of the slitting steel coil; two paper padding machines are used to pad the process paper simultaneously; the process paper rolls are respectively threaded on the shafts of the two paper padding machines, the process paper rolls on the shafts of the two paper padding machines are placed divergently, the distance between the two paper rolls on the same shaft is equal to the width of the corresponding paper roll on the other shaft; the process paper rolls are respectively fixed on the shafts of the two paper padding machines by flanges; the shafts of the paper padding machines are in a necked state, when the coiler winds the steel strip, the process paper rolls can rotate freely on the shafts of the paper padding machines under the pulling of the process paper; then the process paper is padded into the steel coil, and then the winding is started.
[0003] However, the process paper is prone to aging and brittleness after the steel strip is rolled due to high temperature, and the process paper is easy to break, which may cause the paper breaking problem during the production of the finished annealing pickling unit, and the unit needs to be slowed down to re-perform the paper winding operation after the paper is broken. When the process paper is broken in the continuous annealing pickling unit, a series of problems such as quality defects, safety hazards and abnormal operation may be caused by the deceleration, shutdown or untimely disposal of the process section and the process paper being carried into the process section with the steel plate. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is how to realize the automatic detection of the broken paper of the steel coil, issue an alarm, and automatically control the broken paper and the separation of the steel plate.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: a stainless steel finished annealing pickling unit online automatic detection automatic paper blowing device, which comprises a deflector 2, a blowing device 3, a broken paper detection device and a PLC controller 7, the blowing device 3 is connected with a high-pressure gas inlet pipe 6 provided with a valve, the valve and the broken paper detection device are electrically connected with the PLC controller 7, the blowing device 3 and the broken paper detection device are respectively arranged on the two sides of the steel strip 1 deflected by the deflector 2, the steel strip 1 at the blowing device 3 is vertical, and the steel strip 1 at the broken paper detection device is horizontal. After the steel strip leaves the steel coil, the PLC controller 7 first detects whether there is process paper on the steel strip through the broken paper detection device, if there is process paper, the PLC controller 7 controls the valve to be opened, high-pressure gas enters the blowing device 3 through the high-pressure gas inlet pipe 6 to blow and peel the process paper.
[0006] The paper breakage detection device includes a steel strip upper surface detection device 4 and a steel strip lower surface detection device 5. Both the steel strip upper surface detection device 4 and the steel strip lower surface detection device 5 are background suppression photoelectric sensors, and both consist of multiple background suppression photoelectric sensors arranged in parallel.
[0007] The purger 3 consists of two parallel pipes connected in a sealed manner. Each of the two parallel pipes corresponds to one side of the steel strip. A nozzle 8 is installed on each of the two parallel pipes. The nozzle 8 sprays air at an angle of 40°-45° downwards to the steel strip. During operation, the steel strip is conveyed vertically upwards through the purger 3.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model solves the problem of low accuracy in automatic paper break detection by the unit. In the existing technology, detection is performed by the infrared photoelectric sensor built into the unit. When the photoelectric sensor is blocked, the high-pressure nozzle cannot be opened in time. If the broken paper is brought under the steel plate, it is powerless to detect it. Therefore, the original infrared photoelectric sensor for detecting paper breaks has low accuracy. The stainless steel metallic color on the steel plate surface and the white of the craft paper form a very sharp contrast. Therefore, we searched for color classification and image recognition photoelectric sensors. After a long period of comparison and experimentation, we found that color mark photoelectric sensors and background suppression photoelectric sensors were more suitable. However, the detection distance of both is relatively short (within 10mm), which is not suitable for use on stainless steel strips (cold-rolled strips have various shapes such as large-belly plates, single-sided corrugations, and double-sided corrugations, with a maximum height exceeding 10mm). In order to utilize the performance of these photoelectric sensors, we finally selected a background suppression photoelectric sensor and increased its power, achieving a detection distance of over 30cm to meet the actual needs.
[0009] This invention solves the problem of the optimal paper-blowing angle for high-pressure air nozzles. Through long-term observation and research, it was found that while a 60° angle between the high-pressure air nozzle and the steel plate can quickly separate the paper from the plate, the separation area is limited, only separating paper within a certain range of the nozzle. At a 30° angle, some airflow fails to reach the steel plate, resulting in energy waste. Only when the angle is between 40° and 45° can the high-pressure air nozzle not only quickly separate and blow away the paper from the plate, but also provide a pre-peeling effect on paper that has not yet reached the nozzle's range.
[0010] This invention enables the unit to automatically detect paper breaks and automatically reduce and blow away paper during operation without stopping, ensuring stable operation of the process speed, reducing human-machine contact, and improving operational safety. Attached Figure Description
