Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel wire rope production technology, specifically to a steel wire rope heat treatment production equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Steel wire rope is a helical bundle of steel wires that meet the requirements of mechanical properties and geometric dimensions, twisted together according to certain rules. Steel wire rope consists of steel wires, a core, and lubricating grease. During the processing, annealing is required. Annealing is a metal heat treatment process that involves slowly heating the metal to a certain temperature, holding it for a sufficient time, and then cooling it at an appropriate rate. The purpose is to reduce hardness, improve machinability, eliminate residual stress, and stabilize dimensions.

[0003] Existing annealing devices, such as the annealing device for processing steel wire rope disclosed in CN214458160U, involve inserting one end of the steel wire rope into the interior of a spray drying chamber. A water pump draws the spray liquid water from the spray drying chamber into a spray head, which sprays the steel wire rope. After being sprayed, the steel wire rope passes through a perforation and enters the heating area of ​​a heating tube. Hot air dries the steel wire rope, resulting in highly efficient annealing.

[0004] However, the spray head of this equipment is located at the top, and the annealing and cooling of the wire rope is achieved by spraying liquid directly downwards. Since the cross-section of the wire rope is circular, the liquid will drip directly down the side of the wire rope under the action of gravity. The downward spraying method can easily create annealing blind zones, resulting in the lower end of the wire rope not being cooled, thus affecting the quality of the wire rope. To address this issue, we propose a wire rope heat treatment production equipment to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a steel wire rope heat treatment production equipment to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a steel wire rope heat treatment production equipment, including an annealing tank, a collection tank on one side of the annealing tank, a support frame 1 fixedly connected to both ends of the top of the annealing tank, a guide roller 1 rotatably connected to the top of the two support frames 1, and guide rollers 2 rotatably installed on both sides of the bottom of the annealing tank.

[0007] Two support seats are fixedly connected to the top side of the collection pool near the annealing pool. The two support seats are respectively fixedly sleeved to both ends of the fixed tube. Two sets of sliding rods are slidably sleeved on the side wall of the fixed tube. Each set of sliding rods has at least two rods and is distributed axially on the side wall of the fixed tube.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the overall structure is simple, and the steel wire rope to be annealed is immersed in the annealing pool through the cooperation of multiple guide rollers.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] Reference Figure 1 , 4 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a steel wire rope heat treatment production equipment, including an annealing tank 1, a collection tank 4 on one side of the annealing tank 1, support frames 1 2 fixedly connected to the top two ends of the annealing tank 1 respectively, guide rollers 3 rotatably connected to the top of the two support frames 1 2 respectively, and guide rollers 2 14 rotatably installed on both sides of the bottom of the annealing tank 1.

[0023] Two support seats 9 are fixedly connected to the top side of the collection pool 4 near the annealing pool 1. The two support seats 9 are fixedly sleeved to both ends of the fixed tube 10. Two sets of sliding rods 11 are slidably sleeved on the side wall of the fixed tube 10. Each set of sliding rods 11 has at least two rods and is distributed axially on the side wall of the fixed tube 10. A cleaning plate 12 is fixedly connected to the opposite end of the sliding rod 11 through the side wall of the fixed tube 10. The cleaning plate 12 is movably installed inside the fixed tube 10. A spring 13 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of each sliding rod 11. One end of the spring 13 is fixedly connected to the cleaning plate 12, and the other end of the spring 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed tube 10.

[0024] A support frame 2 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the collection pool 4. A conveying roller 6 is rotatably installed on the top of the support frame 2 5. A mounting frame 7 for receiving the collection pool 4 is provided between the conveying roller 6 and the fixed pipe 10. Hot air fans 8 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the mounting frame 7.

[0025] Example 2

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment. Specifically, the guide rollers 14 are symmetrically arranged in the annealing pool 1, and the axes of the guide rollers 14 are set in the same plane, so that the wire rope 16 is immersed in the annealing pool 1 in a horizontal structure, which increases the immersion time of the wire rope 16, so that the wire rope 16 is fully annealed and the quality of the wire rope is guaranteed.

[0027] Specifically, the support frame 2 is symmetrically arranged on the top of the annealing tank 1, and the symmetrical arrangement allows the guide rollers 3 to guide the wire rope 16 respectively.

[0028] Specifically, a liquid level sensor 15 is fixedly installed inside the annealing tank 1. The liquid level sensor 15 is located above the guide roller 14. During the annealing operation, since water will evaporate, the liquid level sensor 15 is used to monitor the water level in the annealing tank 1. When the liquid level drops below the liquid level sensor 15, the stored annealing liquid can be extracted and replenished in the annealing tank 1 by means of a water pump and pipeline.

[0029] Specifically, at opposite ends of the cleaning plate 12, absorbent blocks 121 are attached by Velcro. The absorbent blocks 121 are made of wear-resistant absorbent material (such as rubber flocking material), and Velcro is fixed to one end for easy fixation to the cleaning plate 12. The absorbent blocks 121 absorb the residual annealing liquid on the surface of the wire rope 16. At the same time, the Velcro attachment method makes it easy to replace the absorbent blocks 121 in time after they are saturated.

[0030] Specifically, a discharge port 101 is provided at the bottom of the fixed pipe 10. After the wire rope passes between the two absorbent blocks 121, the absorbent blocks 121 wrap the wire rope. At the same time, the reverse force of the wire rope, combined with the elastic force of the spring 13, keeps the absorbent blocks 121 in contact with the wire rope. Thus, when the wire rope passes through, the absorbent blocks 121 wipe away the residual annealing liquid on the surface of the wire rope, turning the droplets of annealing liquid into a water film. This reduces the amount of annealing liquid residue on the surface of the wire rope and improves the drying efficiency of the subsequent hot air fan. The annealing liquid dripping from the absorbent blocks 121 under the action of gravity can be discharged into the collection pool 4 through the discharge port 101 for collection.

[0031] During operation, the steel wire rope 16... Figure 4Entering from the left, the wire rope 16 passes over the guide roller 3 on the top left of the annealing tank 1, then plunges downwards into the annealing tank 1. It then passes over the guide roller 14 on the left side of the annealing tank 1, exiting from below the guide roller 14 on the right. Next, it passes over the guide roller 14 on the right side of the annealing tank 1, exiting upwards from the right side of the guide roller 14. The wire rope 16 to be annealed is completely immersed in the annealing tank 1. The guide roller 14 increases the immersion time of the wire rope 16, ensuring full annealing and guaranteeing its quality. Finally, it passes over the top of the guide roller 3 on the top right of the annealing tank 1, towards the guide roller... The wire rope 16 exits from the right side of the first 3 and enters the fixed tube 10. It is clamped by two symmetrical cleaning plates 12 inside the fixed tube 10. The water-absorbing blocks 121 fixedly attached to the cleaning plates 12 wrap the wire rope 16. Through the elastic force of the spring 13, the water-absorbing blocks 121 are kept in contact with the outer surface of the wire rope 16. As the wire rope 16 passes through, the water-absorbing blocks 121 wipe away the annealing liquid on the surface of the wire rope 16. The wire rope 16 passes through the bottom of the mounting bracket 7. The hot air fan 8 is powered on and blows hot air towards the wire rope 16 to further dry the wire rope 16 and maintain the dryness of the annealed wire rope 16.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
