Detailed Implementation

[0025] 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.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-5. This utility model provides a technical solution: a steel strip leveling device for steel-plastic composite pipe production, including a machine body 1; at least five sets of leveling roller groups 2 are arranged symmetrically inside the machine body 1, and each set of leveling roller groups 2 includes an upper roller and a lower roller with adjustable spacing. The upper roller and the lower roller are both high-hardness alloy rollers with chrome-plated surfaces. Since the roller surface diameters of the upper roller and the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2 are the same, and the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2 is driven by a drive assembly 4 to achieve synchronous and uniform rotation of the lower rollers of each leveling roller group 2, the linear velocity of the upper roller of the leveling roller group 2 under the friction drive of the steel strip is completely consistent with that of the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2. This ensures that the upper roller and the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2 rotate at the same speed, only in opposite directions, guaranteeing stable steel strip travel speed without... Surface scratches caused by slippage or speed difference; Adjustment device 3 is set at the upper end of the machine body 1 to control the movement adjustment of the upper roller of the leveling roller group 2 and the distance between the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2; Drive assembly 4 is set on the machine body 1 to synchronously drive the lower rollers of several leveling roller groups 2 to rotate; Several annular grooves 5 are provided, located on the two leveling roller groups 2 at the feeding end, the opening end of the annular grooves 5 is set as a smooth arc surface, and the annular grooves 5 on the two groups of leveling roller groups 2 are arranged opposite each other; Sprocket 6 is set on the inner side of the annular groove 5; Conveyor track 7 is composed of rows of track plates, and the track plates are hinged together. The track plates are metal plates and are installed between two opposite sprockets 6 along the conveying direction; Support roller 8 is set between the gaps of the two groups of leveling roller groups 2 along the conveying direction, and is used for The conveyor track 7 is supported by the distributed arrangement of support rollers 8 in the gaps of the leveling roller group 2, forming a dynamic support along the entire length of the conveyor track 7, effectively dispersing the local stress during the movement of the steel belt. Each track plate of the conveyor track 7 is equipped with a rubber protective layer 10. This rubber protective layer 10 enhances the friction coefficient with the steel belt, ensuring conveying stability and preventing surface scratches caused by hard metal-to-metal contact. In actual use, the drive assembly 4 is activated to rotate the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2. The conveyor track 7 below is driven by the rotation of the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2, which in turn drives the sprocket 6 to rotate, causing the conveyor track 7 to move cyclically with the sprocket 6. Simultaneously, during the conveying of the steel belt, the steel belt is clamped between the upper and lower rollers of the leveling roller group 2; the rotation of the lower roller, through the interaction between the steel belt and the sprocket 6, creates a dynamic support along the entire length of the conveyor track 7. The friction of the roller surface causes the upper roller to rotate passively in the opposite direction, which in turn drives the sprocket 6 on the upper roller of the leveling roller group 2 to rotate synchronously. The sprocket 6 then drives the upper and lower conveyor belts 7 to move synchronously, thus conveying the steel strip. The annular groove 5, sprocket 6, and conveyor belt 7 structure on the two sets of leveling roller groups 2 at the feeding end, together with the support design of the support roller 8, form a stable feeding and conveying channel. The track plate assembly of the conveyor belt 7 can adapt to the bending deformation of the steel strip end. Under the drive of the sprocket 6, the steel strip is pre-guided and pulled, effectively guiding the coiled steel strip smoothly into the gap of the leveling roller group. This fundamentally avoids the problem of the steel strip end being bent after uncoiling and difficult to pass smoothly between the two sets of conveyor leveling rollers, which can easily cause the coil to jam.

[0027] Specifically, it also includes a control box 9 with a built-in PLC controller. The control box 9 is electrically connected to the drive assembly 4 and the adjustment device 3 to adjust the speed and spacing of the leveling roller group 2. In actual use, after the operator inputs the steel strip thickness through the touch screen, the system automatically calculates the target spacing of each leveling roller group 2, the speed of the drive motor 43, and the preset pressure range of the hydraulic cylinder 31. The data of the pressure sensor 34 is displayed in real time. If the uneven thickness of the steel strip causes abnormal pressure in a certain group of leveling roller group 2, the pressure sensor 34 triggers the hydraulic cylinder 31 to finely adjust the height of the upper roller to avoid overpressure or insufficient leveling.

[0028] Specifically, the adjustment device 3 includes a hydraulic cylinder 31 located at the upper end of the machine body 1. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 31 is provided with a pressing mounting seat 32. The upper rollers of several leveling roller groups 2 are all installed at the bottom of the pressing mounting seat 32. The upper end of the pressing mounting seat 32 is provided with several guide rods 33 penetrating the top of the machine body 1. There are four guide rods 33, which are evenly distributed at the four corners of the pressing mounting seat 32. The top of the machine body 1 has guide holes that are compatible with the guide rods. Through the setting of the guide rods 33, it is ensured that the upper rollers of several leveling roller groups 2 move vertically without deviation. The hydraulic cylinder 31 is provided with a pressure sensor 34 for real-time monitoring of the pressing force of the upper rollers of the leveling roller group 2. The pressure sensor 34 is integrated into the oil circuit of the hydraulic cylinder 31, which monitors the hydraulic pressure in real time and converts it into pressing force data, which is fed back to the control box 9. In actual use, the target spacing is set through the control box 9, and the hydraulic cylinder 31 pushes the pressing mounting seat 32 to drive all the upper rollers to press down synchronously, forming a progressive leveling force.

[0029] Specifically, the drive assembly 4 includes a first gear 41 disposed at the shaft end of the lower roller of the leveling roller group 2, a second gear 42 meshing with the two first gears 41, and a drive motor 43 that drives one of the first gears 41 to rotate. The drive motor 43 is a variable frequency motor and is connected to the shaft of the first gear 41 through a coupling. The first gear 41 and the second gear 42 cooperate to form a chain drive. The second gear 42 is rotatably mounted on the machine body 1 to ensure that the speed of each lower roller is completely synchronized.

[0030] Working principle: When this utility model is in operation, the end of the bent steel strip is placed manually or mechanically on the conveyor belt 7 at the feeding end. When the drive component 4 drives the lower roller to rotate, the sprockets 6 of the two sets of leveling rollers 2 at the feeding end rotate synchronously, driving the conveyor belt 7 to move in a cycle, forming a flexible traction force on the end of the steel strip. The steel strip smoothly enters the clamping area of ​​the leveling rollers 2, avoiding the problem of jamming.
