Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metal processing, specifically relating to tunnel-type metal plate and strip composite hot rolling equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Metal composite sheets and strips are multilayer materials formed by the interfacial metallurgical bonding of two or more different metals through special processes (such as explosive bonding, rolling bonding, etc.). Their core characteristic is that while retaining the advantages of a single metal, they compensate for its performance shortcomings. For example, the base metal provides mechanical strength, while the cladding metal enhances corrosion resistance, thereby reducing the cost of using precious metals. Currently, in the process of hot rolling to composite metal sheets and strips, the sheet interface is prone to oxidation, forming a brittle and hard structure, which affects the bonding strength and composite effect. Furthermore, heating the metal sheets and strips in furnaces (such as gas furnaces or resistance furnaces) has poor heating efficiency, making high-speed continuous rolling difficult and limiting production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of interface oxides and heating efficiency of the strip in the existing hot rolling composite process of metal sheet and strip, and to provide a tunnel-type hot rolling equipment for metal sheet and strip composite that can effectively reduce oxide generation, has better heating efficiency, and can realize continuous hot rolling composite.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: a tunnel-type composite hot rolling equipment for metal sheet and strip, including a front and rear sealed protective tunnel, a rolling mill, and a control panel. The front and rear ends of the protective tunnel are respectively provided with a feed inlet and a discharge outlet for the sheet and strip. An uncoiling machine is provided in front of the protective tunnel, and the rolling mill is located at the discharge outlet behind the protective tunnel. A coiling machine is provided behind the rolling mill. The metal sheet and strip establish tension through the uncoiling machine and the coiling machine. The protective tunnel is equipped with a high-potential contact, a flamethrower, a correction and overlapping mechanism, an air inlet pipe I, and an air inlet pipe. II. The high-potential contact is located in front of the correction and superposition mechanism. The flamethrower is connected to the gas source. The flamethrower seals the feed inlet and outlet. Control valve I and control valve II are respectively installed on the air inlet pipe I and air inlet pipe II. The air inlet pipe I and air inlet pipe II are respectively connected to the inert gas source and the hydrogen source. The high-potential contact is in contact with the base plate strip. The rolling mill roll is in contact with a low-potential contact. The high-potential contact and the low-potential contact are connected to a heating power source. The unwinding machine, winding machine, rolling mill, flamethrower, control valve I, control valve II and heating power source are connected to the control panel.
[0005] Optionally, the correction and overlapping mechanism consists of a guide roller and an overlapping table. The overlapping table is provided with an overlapping component and a correction component. The guide roller guides the plate to the overlapping table, and the overlapping component and the correction component correct the overlapping plate.
[0006] Optionally, the heating power supply has a supply voltage of 20~25V and a supply current of 10~12.5KA.
[0007] Optionally, a cooling tunnel is provided between the rolling mill and the winding machine.
[0008] Optionally, the distance between the discharge port and the rolling mill rolls is 2~8cm.
[0009] Optionally, a movable door is provided on one side of the protective tunnel.
[0010] The method of use of this utility model is as follows: Two or more metal coils are placed on an uncoiling machine, and the metal strip is pulled through the feed port into the protective tunnel, so that the base strip is continuously in contact with the high-potential contact. The metal strip in the protective tunnel is pulled through the correction and stacking mechanism. Then, the corrected and stacked metal strip is pulled out of the protective tunnel through the discharge port and contacts the rolls of the rolling mill. Control valve I and control valve II are activated to continuously inject inert gas and hydrogen into the protective tunnel. After a certain period of time, the flamethrower is activated to continuously spray flames at the feed port and discharge port to seal the feed port and discharge port. Then, the heating power supply is turned on, and the heating power supply is used to energize the metal strip through the high-potential contact and the low-potential contact (low voltage and high current) to heat the metal strip. Finally, the rolling mill is started, and the metal strip heated by the rolling mill is pulled to establish a connection with the coiling machine. The uncoiling machine and the coiling machine are used to establish tension on the metal strip to achieve continuous hot rolling composite.
[0011] The principle of this invention is as follows: First, the strip to be heated is placed in a relatively sealed tunnel. Inert gas and hydrogen are continuously injected into the tunnel, causing it to fill with these gases. The inert gas and hydrogen then escape through gaps in the tunnel, forming a positive pressure barrier to prevent oxygen-containing air from entering. Simultaneously, the inlet and outlet of the tunnel are sealed with a continuous flame from a flame burner, further preventing oxygen-containing air from entering. Additionally, the hydrogen filling the tunnel can reduce oxides on the surface of the strip. This reduction is accelerated at high temperatures, thus reducing oxide formation at various points. Second, high and low potential contacts are used to heat the metal strip. Because the strip... The strip moves forward continuously. The substrate strip near the high potential is preheated. After preheating, the substrate strip moves forward and passes through the correction and stacking mechanism to overlap with other strips to form a pre-rolled strip. At this time, the resistance increases and the electron density increases, and the temperature of the pre-rolled strip rises further. Then the pre-rolled strip continues to move forward and contacts the rolls. At this time, the resistance increases further and the electron density increases further. The temperature of the pre-rolled strip rises to a suitable value and is then rolled into a composite strip. Through this heating method, the temperature rise is relatively gradual and the heat loss is small, which can achieve good heating efficiency and does not require high equipment. In addition, using low voltage and high current to heat the composite material can effectively improve heating efficiency, optimize material properties, reduce costs, reduce arc radiation, and improve safety, and the operation is simple.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: the present invention can effectively reduce oxide generation, has better heating efficiency, and can realize continuous hot rolling composite. Attached Figure Description
