Detailed Implementation
[0025] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5. The present invention provides a continuous rolling mill for processing aluminum-titanium-boron aluminum alloy rods, including a continuous rolling mill body 6, a frame 5, a guide rod mechanism and a cooling mechanism 1. The guide rod mechanism is connected to the continuous rolling mill body 6 through the frame 5. The cooling mechanism 1 is provided between the guide rod mechanism and the continuous rolling mill body 6 and is connected to the frame 5.
[0027] The cooling mechanism 1 includes a cooling circulation component and a water spraying component. The water spraying component is connected to the frame 5, and the cooling circulation component is connected to the water spraying component.
[0028] The water spraying assembly includes a rotating component, a cylinder 109, and a water collection plate 105. The cylinder 109 is connected to the frame 5. The water collection plate 105 is sleeved on the outside of the cylinder 109 and is rotatably connected to the frame 5. The rotating component is drivenly connected to the water collection plate 105. The upper part of the cylinder 109 is provided with several first water outlets, and the lower part of the cylinder 109 is provided with several first water inlets 104. Several baffles 115 are arranged around the inside of the water collection plate 105. The baffles 115 are movably connected to the outer surface of the cylinder 109. Cooling chambers 102 are provided on both the water collection plate 105 and the baffles 115. The cooling chambers 102 are connected to the cooling circulation assembly.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In actual production and use, when it is necessary to hot roll the preform into aluminum-titanium-boron aluminum alloy rod 7, the preform can be introduced into the continuous rolling mill body 6 for processing to obtain the aluminum alloy rod 7. Then, the aluminum alloy rod 7 enters the cylinder 109. The rotating component drives the water in the water collection pan 105 to move to the first water outlet. Then, the water is poured onto the aluminum alloy rod 7 through the first water outlet to cool the alloy. After that, the water poured off enters the water collection pan 105 through the first water inlet 104 of the cylinder 109 and falls into the cavity between the two baffles 115 and the water collection pan 105 for storage. During the storage process, the cooling circulation component continuously replenishes and outputs cooling water to the cooling cavity 102, so that the water in the cavity and the cooling water in the cooling cavity 102 undergo heat transfer, thereby cooling the water in the cavity. After the water in the cavity is cooled, it moves to the first water outlet under the drive of the rotating component to continue water cooling the aluminum alloy rod 7.
[0030] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a first rotating drive 112, a first gear 113, and a second gear 111. The first gear 113 is sleeved on the outside of the water collection plate 105, and the second gear 111 is rotatably connected to the frame 5. The first gear 113 and the second gear 111 mesh with each other, and the first rotating drive 112 is drivenly connected to the second gear 111.
[0031] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to recover and cool the water that has been poured from the aluminum alloy rod 7, the water falls into the cavity formed by the water collection plate 105 and the baffle 115 through the first water inlet 104. The cooling circulation component cools the water collection plate 105, and the water in the cavity is also cooled by heat transfer. After cooling, in order to better continue to cool the aluminum alloy rod 7, the first rotation drive 112 can be activated, so that the first rotation drive 112 drives the first gear 113 to rotate through the second gear 111, so that the first gear 113 drives the water collection plate 105 to rotate, and the water that has been cooled in the cavity moves to the first water outlet under the drive of the water collection plate 105, and then pours onto the aluminum alloy rod 7 through the first water outlet for cooling.
[0032] Furthermore, the cooling circulation assembly includes a cooling water circulation tank 108, an inlet pipe 103, an outlet pipe 107, an inlet ring 106, and fixed posts 101. The outside of the water collection tray 105 is provided with an installation groove adapted to the inlet ring 106. The inlet ring 106 is rotatably sealed to the installation groove. The inlet ring 106 is fixedly connected to the frame 5 via several fixed posts 101. A second water inlet 114 is provided on the upper part of the inlet ring 106. A second water outlet 116 is provided at the lower part of the ring 106. Both the second water inlet 114 and the second water outlet 116 are connected to the cooling chamber 102. A third water inlet is provided at the upper part of the cooling water circulation tank 108. A third water outlet is provided at the lower part of the cooling water circulation tank 108. The second water inlet 114 is connected to the third water outlet through the water inlet pipe 103. The second water outlet 116 is connected to the third water inlet through the water outlet pipe 107.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to continuously cool the water in the cooling chamber 102, the cooling water circulation tank can be operated, so that the cooled coolant is replenished into the cooling chamber 102 through the inlet pipe 103, and the water falling into the water tray 105 exchanges heat with the coolant through heat transfer. Then the coolant flows back to the cooling water circulation tank through the outlet pipe 107 for further cooling.
[0034] Furthermore, it also includes several water inlet pipes 110, the upper part of which is connected to a first water outlet, and the lower part of each water inlet pipe 110 is disposed inside the cylinder 109.
[0035] As can be seen from the above description, when the water in the water basin 105 reaches the first outlet, it can be better concentrated and poured onto the aluminum alloy rod 7 for cooling through the water pipe 110.
[0036] Furthermore, the guide rod mechanism includes a second rotation drive 2, two guide rollers 3 and two meshing wheels 4. The two guide rollers 3 are rotatably connected to the side of the frame 5 away from the continuous rolling mill body 6. A gap is provided between the guide rollers 3. Each guide roller 3 is provided with a meshing wheel 4 at one end. The meshing wheels 4 directly mesh with each other. The second rotation drive 2 is drivenly connected to the other end of one of the guide rollers 3.
[0037] As can be seen from the above description, when the cooled aluminum alloy rod 7 is to be output outside the device, the aluminum alloy rod 7 passes through the gap between the two guide rollers 3, and then the second rotation drive 2 is activated, causing the second rotation drive 2 to drive one guide roller 3 to rotate. Then, one guide roller 3 drives the other guide roller 3 to move through the meshing wheel 4, so that the aluminum alloy rod 7 is exported outside the device with the cooperation of the two guide rollers 3.
[0038] Furthermore, it also includes a PLC controller, which is electrically connected to the continuous rolling mill body 6, the guide rod mechanism, and the cooling mechanism 1, respectively.
