Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ring rolling mill technology, and in particular to a dual-station ring rolling mill. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the field of metal processing, especially for the rolling and expansion process of metal rings, traditional ring rolling mill designs often have limitations, affecting processing efficiency and product quality. Specifically, the frame of a traditional ring rolling mill is usually horizontal. This design makes it difficult to achieve independent and stable support for the metal ring by the support rollers when supporting and rolling the metal ring, especially when processing metal rings of different diameters or complex shapes. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN118437876A discloses an automatic ring rolling mill, which relates to the field of ring rolling mill technology and aims to improve the problem that the inner wall of the workpiece supported by the strut can easily affect the quality of the finished product. An automatic ring rolling mill includes a machine body, a fixed frame is provided on one side of the machine body, several sets of feed rollers for transferring workpieces are rotatably arranged on the fixed frame, a rotating component is provided on the fixed frame for driving all feed rollers to rotate synchronously, a traction component is provided on the fixed frame for pulling the workpiece onto the feed rollers, and a transfer cart for transferring workpieces is provided on the side of the fixed frame away from the machine body.

[0003] In addition, traditional ring rolling mills cannot flexibly adapt to the rolling requirements of different parts of the metal ring, resulting in uneven stress on the metal ring during the rolling process, which can easily cause deformation or cracks and affect the quality of the finished product. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in response to the above problems, this utility model proposes a dual-station ring rolling mill, which solves the technical problem that existing ring rolling mills cannot flexibly adapt to the rolling requirements of different parts of the metal ring.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a dual-station ring rolling mill for rolling and expanding metal rings, comprising a frame and a sliding seat that can slide up and down along the frame, a pushing cylinder mounted on the frame to drive the sliding seat, a rolling mechanism rotatably mounted on the sliding seat, a rotating motor that drives the rolling mechanism to rotate, and a support roller rotatably mounted on the frame below the rolling mechanism. The support roller supports the ring and cooperates with the rolling mechanism to achieve rolling and expanding. The frame is inclined at an angle of 5-30 degrees to enable the support roller to independently support the metal ring. The support roller has a first roller section near the frame and a second roller section located outside the first roller section. The diameter of the second roller section is smaller than the diameter of the first roller section. The rolling mechanism includes a first rolling section that cooperates with the first roller section and a second rolling section that cooperates with the second roller section.

[0006] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a support mechanism for supporting the second roller. The support mechanism is rotatably mounted on a support plate on the frame and has a swing drive device that drives the support plate to move closer to or away from the second roller. The support plate is provided with a recess that mates with the free end of the second roller.

[0007] Furthermore, a flexible buffer layer is provided in the recessed portion, and a wear-resistant material layer is provided in the flexible buffer layer.

[0008] Furthermore, a lifting mechanism for lifting the metal ring is provided on the frame below the second roller section. The lifting mechanism includes a lifting cylinder on the frame and a lifting plate on the piston rod of the lifting cylinder. The upper end face of the lifting plate is inclined to enable the metal ring to move towards the first roller section.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper surface of the lifting plate is provided with anti-slip texture, the depth of which is 0.5-2mm, and the anti-slip texture is distributed in a wavy shape.

[0010] Furthermore, the angle between the upper end face of the lifting plate and the axis of the supporting roller is 5-15 degrees.

[0011] Furthermore, a transition arc surface is provided between the first roller section and the second roller section.

[0012] Furthermore, support assemblies are respectively provided on both sides below the support roller body on the frame. The support assembly includes a support cylinder hinged to the frame at the bottom, a top pressure roller rotatably mounted on the piston rod of the support cylinder, and a rotating cylinder hinged to the frame at the bottom. The piston rod of the rotating cylinder is hinged to the support cylinder. The top pressure roller can cooperate with the metal ring on the first roller section and / or the second roller section to achieve support.

[0013] By adopting the aforementioned technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This solution uses a frame that is tilted at an angle of 5-30 degrees to achieve independent and stable support of the metal ring by the support roller, thereby improving the stability and accuracy during the rolling process and reducing ring deformation or slippage caused by unstable support.

[0015] 2. The support roller body includes a first roller section near the frame and a second roller section located outside the first roller section. The diameter of the second roller section is smaller than that of the first roller section. The design of roller sections with different diameters accommodates the rolling requirements of different parts of the metal ring, making the rolling process more uniform and improving the quality of the finished product. Furthermore, the shape of the metal ring can be formed by adjusting the outlines of the first roller section, the second roller section, the first rolling section, and the second rolling section.

[0016] 3. The frame is equipped with a support mechanism for the second roller, enhancing its stability and preventing deformation or displacement due to excessive force during rolling, thus improving equipment reliability. A flexible buffer layer reduces impact and vibration between the support plate and the second roller, improving operational smoothness; a wear-resistant material layer extends the service life of the support plate, reducing replacement frequency and costs.

[0017] 4. The lifting cylinder and lifting plate are designed with an inclined upper surface. When the position of the metal ring needs to be changed or adjusted, the lifting mechanism can quickly and smoothly lift the ring, reducing the difficulty and time of manual operation; the inclined upper surface gives the metal ring a tendency to move towards the first roller, which can realize the automatic transfer of the metal ring from the second roller to the first roller, facilitating subsequent rolling operations.

[0018] 5. The anti-slip texture increases the friction between the lifting plate and the metal ring, preventing the ring from sliding or falling off during lifting and improving operational safety. The angle between the upper end face of the lifting plate and the axis of the support roller is 5-15 degrees. This angle design helps the metal ring remain stable during lifting, avoiding tilting or sliding of the ring due to excessively large or small angles, thus improving operational accuracy and safety.

[0019] 6. The transition arc surface effectively improves the smoothness of the transfer.

[0020] 7. The support assembly provides additional support points for the metal ring, enhancing its stability during the rolling process; the top pressure roller can cooperate with the metal ring on the first roller section and / or the second roller section to provide support, adapting to the needs of rings with different diameters and shapes.

The angle α between the upper end face of the lifting plate 62 and the axis of the supporting roller 4 is 5-15 degrees. In this design, the angle α is 7 degrees.

[0034] A transition arc surface 43 is provided between the first roller section 41 and the second roller section 42.

[0035] Support assemblies are respectively provided on both sides below the support roller 4 on the frame 1. The support assembly includes a support cylinder 71 with its bottom hinged to the frame 1, a top pressure roller 72 rotatably mounted on the piston rod of the support cylinder 71, and a rotating cylinder 73 with its bottom hinged to the frame 1.
