Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold rolling mill technology, specifically to a quick clamping device for a cold rolling mill. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of a cold rolling mill is to cold roll rough tubes to produce seamless tubes with high precision and excellent physical properties. The cold rolling mill cold rolls the rough tubes through annular die-cutting. Its main components include a mandrel with a certain taper and a pair of die-cuts with gradually changing grooves. While the work stand reciprocates, the rolls rotate, and the tube blank is repeatedly rolled within the gap between the mandrel and the die-cuts, achieving a reduction in the outer diameter and wall thickness of the tube blank. During the processing, a clamping device is used to hold the tube. This clamping device is mainly used to fix, feed, and rotate the tube blank, ensuring its stability during rolling and working with the rolls to achieve precise plastic deformation.
[0003] In existing cold-rolled tube mills, the billet clamping assembly and rotating assembly are separate components. During processing, manual positioning and clamping are required, which is inconvenient and prone to misalignment, affecting the accuracy of billet processing. Furthermore, the clamping device is prone to loosening during billet rotation, impacting the clamping effect. To address these issues, a rapid clamping device for cold-rolled tube mills is proposed. This device utilizes a clamping plate that can be freely adjusted according to the billet's outer diameter, along with a rotating structure connected to the clamping components, to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0027] Example 1
[0028] Reference Figures 1-4This first embodiment of the present invention proposes a quick clamping device for a cold rolling mill, comprising a loading box 1, a clamping head 2 rotatably connected to one side of the loading box 1, a clamping rotating assembly 3 provided inside the clamping head 2, the clamping rotating assembly 3 including a groove opened at the outer end of the clamping head 2, a gripper 301 rotatably connected inside the groove, a clamping plate 302 fixedly connected to the outer end of the gripper 301, a connecting groove 303 opened at the top of the clamping plate 302, a connecting rod 304 movably connected inside the connecting groove 303, a clamping plate 305 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod 304, a hollow connecting post 306 fixedly connected to one end of the clamping head 2, the hollow connecting post 306 being rotatably connected to the loading box 1, a driven gear 307 fixedly connected to the outer end of the hollow connecting post 306, a transmission gear 308 meshing with the outer end of the driven gear 307, and the driven gear 307 and the transmission gear 308 being rotatably connected inside the loading box 1. The purpose of this configuration is that, when clamping the tube blank, one end of the tube blank is inserted into the inside of the clamp 2, while the jaw 301 rotates in the groove at the outer end of the clamp 2. At this time, the rotating jaw 301 drives the connecting rod 304 inside the clamping plate 302 to rotate together, so that the clamping plate 305 at the bottom of the connecting rod 304 clamps the tube blank from the outer end. During the clamping process, the connecting rod 304 extends, retracts, and rotates inside the connecting groove 303 according to the radius of the tube blank. The connecting rod 304, which can move inside the connecting groove 303, is suitable for tube blanks of various diameters. When the tube blank is clamped, during the rotation of the tube blank, the transmission gear 308 drives the driven gear 307 at its outer end to rotate, so that the hollow connecting column 306 fixed at its outer end drives the clamp 2 to rotate at the outer end of the loading box 1, thereby enabling the tube blank to complete the rotation operation during the clamping process. The tube blank clamping operation is convenient and fast, and the clamping plate 305 provides higher stability for clamping the tube blank.
[0029] Optionally, the clamping and rotating assembly 3 further includes an inner plate 309 fixedly connected inside the clamping head 2. A stop rod 3010 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the inner plate 309, and a slide plate 3011 is slidably connected to the outer end of the stop rod 3010. The slide plate 3011 is slidably connected inside the clamping head 2, and a rotating rod 3012 is rotatably connected between the clamping jaws 301 and the slide plate 3011. The purpose of this arrangement is that during the clamping of the tube blank, the slide plate 3011 slides between the clamping head 2 and the inner plate 309. At this time, the rotating rod 3012 drives the clamping jaws 301 to rotate in the groove at the outer end of the clamping head 2, thereby causing the clamping jaws 301 to drive the clamping plate 302 to rotate towards the inner side of the clamping head 2, and thus causing the clamping plate 305 to clamp the tube blank from the outer end.
[0030] Optionally, the outer end of the connecting rod 304 is provided with a sliding groove, and a movable rod is fixedly connected inside the connecting groove 303. The sliding rod is movably connected to the sliding groove. The locking and rotating assembly 3 also includes a first spring 3013 sleeved on the outer end of the connecting rod 304. The first spring 3013 is fixedly connected between the clamping plate 302 and the clamping plate 305. The purpose of this arrangement is that the elastic force generated by the first spring 3013 enhances the clamping force of the clamping plate 305 on the outer wall of the tube blank, preventing the tube blank from loosening from the clamping plate 305 during processing.
[0031] Optionally, the clamping and rotating assembly 3 further includes an assembly ring 3014 fixedly connected inside the loading box 1. The assembly ring 3014 is rotatably connected to the driven gear 307. A hydraulic cylinder 3015 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the loading box 1. A push rod 3016 is fixedly connected to the telescopic part of the hydraulic cylinder 3015. The push rod 3016 is slidably connected to the inside of the hollow connecting column 306. The bottom end of the push rod 3016 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 3011. A first servo motor 3017 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the loading box 1. The output end of the first servo motor 3017 is fixedly connected to the transmission gear 308. The purpose of this arrangement is that, during the clamping process of the tube blank, the hydraulic cylinder 3015 drives the push rod 3016 fixed to its telescopic part to extend and retract inside the clamping head 2, thereby causing the slide plate 3011 to slide inside the clamping head 2, which in turn causes the rotating rod 3012 to drive the gripper 301 to rotate, thus completing the clamping operation of the tube blank.
[0032] Example 2
[0033] Reference Figures 1-5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that:
[0034] Compared to Embodiment 1, the loading box 1 is further provided with guide rods 4 symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides, guide rails 5 slidably connected inside the guide rods 4, and floor plates 6 symmetrically fixedly connected to both ends of the two sets of guide rails 5. A support rod 7 is engaged between the two sets of floor plates 6. The purpose of this arrangement is to facilitate the movement of the loading box 1 between the two sets of guide rails 5, provided that the guide rails 5 between the two sets of floor plates 6 are in a convenient manner.
[0035] Optionally, a second servo motor 8 is fixedly connected to the outer end of one set of floor plates 6, and a bidirectional lead screw 9 is rotatably connected between the two sets of floor plates 6. The output end of the second servo motor 8 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 9, and a connecting seat 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the loading box 1. The bidirectional lead screw 9 is threadedly connected to the connecting seat 10. The purpose of this arrangement is that the second servo motor 8 drives the bidirectional lead screw 9 connected to its output end to rotate between the two sets of floor plates 6. Since the connecting seat 10 is threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 9, the loading box 1 reciprocates between the two sets of guide rails 5, thereby completing the billet feeding operation.
[0036] Optionally, a first lower clamping ring 11 is fixedly connected to the top of another set of floor plates 6. A connecting rod 12 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the first lower clamping ring 11, and a second lower clamping ring 13 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the connecting rod 12. Both the first lower clamping ring 11 and the second lower clamping ring 13 have upper clamping rings 14 at their top ends. Side plates 15 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer sides of the first lower clamping ring 11, the second lower clamping ring 13, and the upper clamping ring 14. A support rod 16 is slidably connected between the two side plates 15, and a second spring 17 is fixedly connected between the two ends of the support rod 16 and the side plates 15. The purpose of this arrangement is that during the feeding process, as the tube blank moves between the first lower clamping ring 11, the second lower clamping ring 13, and the upper clamping ring 14, the elastic force generated by the second spring 17 enhances the clamping force of the first lower clamping ring 11, the second lower clamping ring 13, and the upper clamping ring 14 on the tube blank, thus positioning the tube blank and preventing it from shifting during feeding, which would affect the accuracy and effect of tube blank processing.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
