[0002] Hot-rolled seamless steel pipe is a tubular steel product with no joints, produced through hot rolling. It features high strength, good toughness, and strong pressure resistance, and is widely used in petroleum, chemical, power, machinery manufacturing, and construction engineering. During the hot rolling process of seamless steel pipe, two conveying rollers with the same direction of rotation are used to transport the bar stock. During this process, the top roller squeezes the bar stock, so that the bar stock is formed into a steel pipe of the corresponding wall thickness when it passes through the mandrel. At this time, the wall thickness of the steel pipe depends on the downward pressure height of the roller. However, existing rollers are generally driven by hydraulic cylinders, but the driving stroke of hydraulic cylinders is fixed, which can only perform hot rolling of steel pipes with fixed wall thickness, reducing the versatility of the hot rolling process of the piercing mill.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] This utility model discloses a device for controlling the wall thickness accuracy of hot-rolled seamless steel pipes.

[0023] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-3 The device for controlling the wall thickness accuracy of hot-rolled seamless steel pipe shown includes a first fixed frame 1, a second fixed frame 2, two symmetrically arranged conveying rollers 3 and rolling rollers 4, all located inside a piercing mill. A drive shaft 5 is rotatably mounted on the upper part of the interior of the first fixed frame 1. Synchronous pulleys 6 are fixedly mounted on the output shafts of the drive shaft 5 and the two conveying rollers 3. A synchronous chain 7 is driven on the outside of the synchronous pulleys 6. A rotating column 8 is rotatably mounted inside the second fixed frame 2. A connecting frame 9 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating column 8. The connecting frame 9 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the output shaft of the rolling rollers 4.

[0024] The upper end of the second fixed frame 2 is fixedly provided with a mounting plate 10, the outer wall of the mounting plate 10 is fixedly provided with a hydraulic cylinder 11, the output shaft end of the hydraulic cylinder 11 is fixedly provided with a connecting plate 12, the connecting plate 12 is provided with an adjustment mechanism, and a rack 13 is provided through the adjustment mechanism. The rack 13 is fitted with a gear 14, and the gear 14 is fixedly sleeved with the rotating column 8. The adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment screw 15. The connecting plate 12 is provided with a through hole, and the adjustment screw 15 is rotatably disposed in the through hole. The end of the adjustment screw 15 passes through the connecting plate 12 and is fixedly provided with a rotating block 20. The rod wall of the adjustment screw 15 is threadedly fitted with a slider 16. The outer wall of the slider 16 contacts and engages with the inner wall of the through hole. A fixed plate 17 is fixedly provided on the back side of the slider 16, and a compression separation mechanism is provided between the fixed plate 17 and the rack 13.

[0025] To enable rapid disengagement of the rack and gear, the lateral movement position of the rack is adjusted, thereby regulating the meshing range of the rack and gear, and adjusting the downward pressure height of the rolls, such as... Figure 1-2 As shown, the compression separation mechanism includes a guide block 18 with a T-shaped cross-section. A guide hole is provided inside the fixing plate 17. The guide block 18 is fixedly connected to the rack 13 and slidably disposed in the guide hole. A guide spring 19 is fixedly provided between the guide block 18 and the inner wall of the guide hole.

[0026] Working principle: The drive shaft 5 drives two conveying rollers 3 to rotate synchronously through the synchronous wheel 6 and synchronous chain 7 to convey the bar stock. According to the target wall thickness, the rotating block 20 is rotated to make the adjusting screw 15 rotate, which drives the slider 16 and the fixed plate 17 to move to adjust the initial meshing position of the rack 13 and the gear 14. The hydraulic cylinder 11 pushes the connecting plate 12 to make the rack 13 move laterally and mesh with the gear 14. The gear 14 drives the rotating column 8 and the connecting frame 9 to rotate to adjust the falling height of the roller 4 (for example, when the rack 13 moves to the left, the gear 14 rotates counterclockwise to make the roller 4 press down to increase the degree of extrusion and reduce the wall thickness, and vice versa, it moves up to reduce the degree of extrusion and increase the wall thickness). During adjustment, the guide block 18 slides along the guide hole of the fixed plate 17 under the action of the guide spring 19, which can temporarily separate the rack 13 and the gear 14 for quick position adjustment. After the adjustment is completed, the guide spring 19 resets to make the rack 13 and the gear 14 re-mesh. Thus, by controlling the falling height of the roller 4, the deformation of the bar stock is changed to achieve precise wall thickness adjustment.

[0027] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
