Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting equipment, specifically to a billet cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Flame cutting of steel billets in continuous casting machines is a key process in steel production, directly affecting product quality and production efficiency. The working principle of flame cutting is as follows: After the flame cutting torch is ignited, the preheating flame heats the metal surface at the starting point to its ignition point. Then, combustion reaction begins in the cutting oxygen and propagates downwards. At the same time, the kinetic energy of the cutting oxygen blows away the molten slag, forming a continuous cut. To ensure a good flame cutting effect, the distance between the flame cutting torch and the billet is very important. Too much distance will affect the cutting effect. Continuous casting machines can usually produce billets of multiple sizes. Therefore, it is necessary to design a billet cutting device that can adjust the distance between the flame cutting torch and the billet according to the billet size. Summary of the Invention

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown:

[0018] Example 1: A billet cutting device includes a support platform 1, which is set above the roller table 2 of a continuous casting machine. The billet moves along the roller table 2 of the continuous casting machine. A hot cutting car 3 is slidably set on the upper end of the support platform 1. The hot cutting car 3 slides in the horizontal direction and the moving direction of the hot cutting car 3 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the billet. A moving mechanism is set between the hot cutting car 3 and the support platform 1. The moving mechanism provides power to the hot cutting car 3, so that the hot cutting car 3 moves back and forth above the support platform 1.

[0019] The fire-cutting car 3 is equipped with a lifting mechanism, which is connected to the fire-cutting mechanism 14. The lower end of the fire-cutting mechanism 14 is a nozzle. The support platform 1 is equipped with a slide 15. The fire-cutting mechanism 14 extends from the slide 15 to the bottom of the support platform 1. The lifting mechanism controls the fire-cutting mechanism 14 to move in the vertical direction.

[0020] The support platform 1 is equipped with an iron powder tank 10 and an iron powder conveying unit. The iron powder conveying unit is connected to the iron powder tank 10, and the iron powder conveying unit is equipped with a flexible hose 11 connected to the flame cutting mechanism 14. When cutting the billet, the iron powder conveying unit conveys the iron powder in the iron powder tank 10 to the flame cutting mechanism 14, which has the advantages of reducing the melting point and improving the cutting quality. The support platform 1 is equipped with a controller 13, which is connected to both the lifting mechanism and the moving mechanism.

[0021] Example 2: A billet cutting device includes a support platform 1, which is set above the roller conveyor 2 of a continuous casting machine. The billet moves along the roller conveyor 2 of the continuous casting machine. A cutting car 3 is slidably set on the upper end of the support platform 1. The cutting car 3 slides in the horizontal direction and the direction of movement of the cutting car 3 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the billet. Two guide rails 4 are set on the upper end of the support platform 1. Multiple V-shaped wheels 5 are rotatably set on both sides of the cutting car 3. The V-shaped wheels 5 are slidably set on the guide rails 4 on the same side to make the movement of the cutting car 3 more stable.

[0022] A moving mechanism is provided between the fire-cutting car 3 and the support platform 1. The moving mechanism includes a drive motor 6, which is fixedly mounted on the fire-cutting car 3. The drive motor 6 is equipped with a gear 7, and the support platform 1 is equipped with a rack 8 that meshes with the gear 7. The drive motor 6 drives the gear 7 to rotate, and the movement of the fire-cutting car 3 is realized through the meshing of the gear 7 and the rack 8. The moving mechanism provides power to the fire-cutting car 3, so that the fire-cutting car 3 moves back and forth above the support platform 1.

[0023] The fire-cutting car 3 is equipped with a lifting mechanism, which is connected to the fire-cutting mechanism 14. The lower end of the fire-cutting mechanism 14 is a nozzle. The support platform 1 is equipped with a slide 15. The fire-cutting mechanism 14 extends from the slide 15 to the bottom of the support platform 1. The lifting mechanism controls the fire-cutting mechanism 14 to move in the vertical direction. The lifting mechanism includes a vertically extending hydraulic telescopic rod 9. The upper end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 9 is equipped with a crossbeam connected to the fire-cutting mechanism 14. The hydraulic telescopic rod 9 is connected to an external hydraulic station and hydraulic control system.

[0024] The support platform 1 is equipped with an iron powder tank 10 and an iron powder conveying unit. The iron powder conveying unit is connected to the iron powder tank 10, and the iron powder conveying unit is equipped with a flexible hose 11 connected to the flame cutting mechanism 14. When cutting the billet, the iron powder conveying unit conveys the iron powder in the iron powder tank 10 to the flame cutting mechanism 14, which has the advantages of reducing the melting point and improving the cutting quality. The lower end face of the support platform 1 is equipped with a high-temperature laser rangefinder 12. The high-temperature laser rangefinder 12 is used to monitor the distance between the billet and the support platform 1 and adjust the height of the flame cutting mechanism 14 according to the distance information. The support platform 1 is equipped with a controller 13, which is connected to the high-temperature laser rangefinder 12, the lifting mechanism, and the moving mechanism.

[0025] The working principle is as follows:

[0026] The billet is conveyed along the roller conveyor 2 of the continuous casting machine to the bottom of the support platform 1. The pneumatic clamp of the continuous casting machine holds the billet and positions it. The moving mechanism moves the cutting car 3 to the end of the chute 15. The high-temperature Jinan Iron and Steel distance measuring device measures the distance between the support platform 1 and the billet and transmits the data to the controller 13. The controller 13 controls the lifting mechanism to adjust the height difference between the cutting mechanism 14 and the billet. After adjusting to the optimal height difference, the cutting mechanism 14 is ignited. At the same time, the iron powder conveying unit conveys the iron powder in the iron powder tank 10 to the cutting mechanism 14. The moving mechanism drives the cutting car 3 to move and cut the billet. After the cutting is completed, the cutting mechanism 14 is extinguished and the moving mechanism drives the cutting car 3 to reset.
