Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold rolling mill technology, specifically to the billet feeding trolley of a cold rolling mill. Background Technology
[0002] The working principle of a cold rolling mill is to change the size, shape and mechanical properties of a tube by cold rolling a hot-rolled tube or hot-rolled coil. The specific process includes steps such as raw material preparation, heating, pre-bending, cold rolling, tube removal, inspection and trimming, testing and packaging. Through these steps, cold-rolled tubes with certain performance and precision requirements can be produced.
[0003] For example, the billet feeding rotary mechanism disclosed in patent publication number CN221790565U is used in cold rolling mills. It installs the rotary motor and rotary speed change mechanism on the billet feeding trolley, which not only eliminates the need for easily damaged parts such as drive shafts and sliding keys, saving costs, but also greatly improves the reliability of the rotary action of cold rolling mills and greatly reduces rotational inertia.
[0004] While the existing technologies described above can significantly improve the reliability of the rotation of cold rolling mills, the feeding trolley for conveying tube blanks is not easy to adjust in terms of height and horizontal elevation angle, thus hindering the improvement of the accuracy of tube blank feeding into the cold rolling mill. Furthermore, the transmission accuracy of the drive screw in the drive device will be greatly reduced after long-term use, and increasing lubrication usually requires manual application of lubricating oil, which is time-consuming, laborious, and inefficient.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a method for feeding tube blanks into a trolley during a cold rolling mill. Utility Model Content

[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] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution: a billet feeding trolley for a cold rolling mill includes a bed 1, a lifting frame 2, an adjusting frame 3, and a billet moving trolley 4. The billet moving trolley 4 is equipped with a clamping mechanism 5 and a hydraulic transmission mechanism 6. The adjusting frame 3 is equipped with a driving device 7 for moving the billet moving trolley 4. The driving device 7 is equipped with a driving screw 701. The lifting frame 2 is located above the bed 1, and the adjusting frame 3 is located on the lifting frame 2. A telescopic cylinder 8 for lifting the lifting frame 2 is located below the bed 1. The lifting frame 2 is equipped with an angle adjustment component 9 for adjusting the horizontal elevation angle of the adjusting frame 3. Both ends of the billet moving trolley 4 are equipped with lubrication components 10 for injecting oil onto the surface of the driving screw 701. The hydraulic transmission mechanism 6 is used to drive the clamping mechanism 5 to clamp and hold the billet. The clamping mechanism 5 and the hydraulic transmission mechanism 6 provided in this device are common existing technologies in the market, so their structure is not described in this device.
[0027] Example 2: As Figure 3As shown, a support plate 12 is fixedly installed under the bed 1 via a mounting rod 11. Telescopic cylinders 8 are distributed and fixedly installed on the support plate 12. The output end of the telescopic cylinder 8 passes through the bed 1 and is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2. Guide rods 13 are distributed and fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bed 1. The free end of the guide rod 13 passes through the lifting frame 2. The telescopic cylinder 8 is a telescopic hydraulic cylinder or a telescopic pneumatic cylinder. The opening of the telescopic cylinder 8 is controlled by an external controller. The opening of the telescopic cylinder 8 enables the lifting frame 2 to drive the billet moving trolley 4 to adjust its height. This facilitates the precise docking of the billet with the cold rolling mill when the billet is clamped in the billet moving trolley 4.
[0028] Example 3: As Figure 5 As shown, the angle adjustment assembly 9 includes a bracket 901, which is fixedly installed at the center of the surface of the lifting frame 2. A support rod 902 is fixedly installed inside the bracket 901. A support hole 14 is opened inside the adjustment frame 3, and the support rod 902 is inserted into the support hole 14. An adjustment hole 15 is symmetrically opened at one end of the adjustment frame 3. A gear frame 903 is fixedly installed inside the adjustment hole 15. The adjustment assembly also includes a drive gear 904, which is rotatably installed inside the gear frame 903. When the horizontal elevation angle of the adjustment frame 3 is adjusted by the angle adjustment assembly 9, the support rod 902 can support the adjustment frame 3. At the same time, the gear frame 903 can limit the drive gear 904. The gear frame 903 is fixed inside the adjustment hole 15 by a screw.
[0029] A hub motor 905 is fixedly installed inside the drive gear 904. Both ends of the hub motor 905 are fixedly connected to the gear carrier 903. An arc-shaped rack 906 is symmetrically fixedly installed on the lifting frame 2. The upper end of the arc-shaped rack 906 passes through the adjustment hole 15. The drive gear 904 and the arc-shaped rack 906 mesh and transmit power. It should be noted that the arc-shaped rack 906 is fixedly installed inside the lifting frame 2 by a screw. Turning on the hub motor 905 drives the drive gear 904 to rotate. It can mesh with the arc-shaped rack 906. The hub motor 905 is a zero-power self-locking hub motor 905. The zero-power self-locking hub motor 905 maintains a self-locking state after the motor is turned off through the high impedance of the gate of the V-groove MOS transistor through the internal circuit. This allows the adjusting frame 3 to rotate circumferentially around the axis of the support rod 902. In turn, the adjusting frame 3 can adjust the horizontal elevation angle of the billet moving carriage 4, thereby adjusting the angle of the billet clamped in the billet moving carriage 4, and thus improving the accuracy of the billet being fed into the billet by the billet moving carriage 4.
[0030] Example 4: Figure 7As shown, the billet moving trolley 4 has symmetrically arranged screw oil injection holes 16 inside. The front end of the screw oil injection hole 16 is the screw hole 1601, and the rear end of the screw oil injection hole 16 is the oil injection hole 1602. Through the design that the front end of the screw oil injection hole 16 is the screw hole 1601 and the rear end is the oil injection hole 1602, it can mesh with the drive screw 701 through the screw hole 1601, thereby driving the billet moving trolley 4.
[0031] Lubrication assembly 10 includes an oil outlet tank 1001 and an oil return tank 1002. The oil outlet tank 1001 is located at both ends of the upper surface of the billet moving trolley 4, and the oil return tank 1002 is located on the outer walls of both sides of the billet moving trolley 4. An oil outlet pump 1003 is installed inside the oil outlet tank 1001, and the oil outlet end of the oil outlet pump 1003 is connected to an oil outlet pipe 1004. One end of the oil outlet pipe 1004 extends to the upper part of the oil injection hole 1602. An oil return pump 1005 is installed inside the oil return tank 1002, and the oil inlet end of the oil return pump 1005 is connected to an oil return pipe 1006. One end of the oil return pipe 1006 extends to the lower part of the oil injection hole 1602, and the oil outlet end of the oil return pump 1005 is connected to... A circulation oil pipe 1007 is provided, with its free end connected to the oil outlet tank 1001. The oil outlet pump 1003 can inject the lubricating oil in the oil outlet tank 1001 into the oil filling hole 1602 through the oil outlet pipe 1004, thereby lubricating the drive screw 701. When the lubricating oil drips onto the surface of the drive screw 701, it can move downwards along the surface of the drive screw 701 due to gravity. By turning on the return oil pump 1005, the dripping lubricating oil can be sucked into the return oil pump 1005 and then fed into the oil outlet tank 1001 through the circulation oil pipe 1007, thus realizing the recycling of the lubricating oil.
