Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bar rolling mill technology, and more particularly to an improved exit guide structure for medium bar rolling mills. Background Technology
[0002] The bar production line of Benxi Steel's Special Steel Division was initially built in 2007 and upgraded in 2019. After the upgrade, it is mainly equipped with two walking beam furnaces, one Φ1150mm two-roll reversible billet mill, three 850mm high-rigidity rolling mills without arches, one hydraulic shear, four 480mm and five 576mm short-stress finishing mills, one marshalling yard, three grinding saws, and one rack-and-pinion walking beam cooling bed. It uses 390*480mm continuously cast billets as raw material and can roll round bars of Φ85~200mm and certain specifications of square and flat bars. It mainly produces bearing steel, gear steel, alloy structural steel, petroleum steel, and gas cylinder steel.
[0003] By benchmarking against leading domestic special steel enterprises, it was found that head bending of bar stock is a quality problem faced by domestic bar mills. The head bending length of steel is mostly in the range of 0.5-1.5m. Especially for special steel grades with Φ150-200mm, head bending is difficult to eliminate through straightening due to the blind zone of the pressure straightener. In order to ensure the straightness of the steel, the head bending can only be cut off in the finishing process. This not only affects the normal production order and process cost of finishing, but also increases the process cycle, increases metal consumption, and reduces the yield by 0.2-0.5%. It can be seen that head bending of bar stock has become an urgent problem to be solved in steel rolling production lines.
[0004] The improved exit guide structure used in traditional medium bar mills has the following defects. First, when using the improved exit guide structure used in traditional medium bar mills, because the heating furnace adopts the end-in and end-out loading and unloading method, the temperature is high on the side near the furnace and low on the roller table side during the steel tapping process, resulting in uneven temperature on the left and right sides of the billet. During the rolling process, the uneven temperature on each side of the billet leads to uneven rolling force and abnormal friction coefficient, causing the round bar to bend towards the side with lower temperature during the rolling process. Secondly, when using the improved exit guide structure for traditional medium bar mills, the sizing mill pass uses the finished product pass. However, due to the curvature of the finished product head, after sizing rolling, a single-sided impact ear appears at the head of the rolled piece, which not only fails to improve the head curvature but also causes surface defects.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of export guide structure that can effectively solve the problem of uneven temperature distribution in steel billets, improve the fixing strength of the guide, thereby eradicating the problem of steel head bending and improving product quality and production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, an improved exit guide structure for medium bar mills is provided. This invention enhances structural stability and eliminates rolling sway by changing the fixing method between the guide and the guide beam from point contact to surface contact, thereby solving the problems of steel head bending and surface defects.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an improved outlet guide structure for a medium bar mill, comprising a rectangular frame. An upper pressure plate is fixedly installed on one side of the rectangular frame, and an upper plate connecting screw is fixedly installed on the inner side of the upper pressure plate. One end of the upper plate connecting screw is engaged with a conical connecting column, one end of the conical connecting column is fixedly connected to a top plate, and one end of the top plate is fixedly connected to an outlet nose cone. A lower pressure plate is fixedly installed on the other side of the rectangular frame, and a lower plate connecting screw is fixedly installed on the inner side of the lower pressure plate. A connecting piece is fixedly installed on the inner side of the lower plate connecting screw, and a clamping block is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting piece. An outlet conduit is engaged with the inner side of the clamping block.
[0008] Furthermore, all four corners of one end of the rectangular frame are provided with smooth chamfers.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of frame connecting screws are fixedly provided on the inner side of the rectangular frame, and side guide plates are fixedly connected to all four sides of the rectangular frame.

[0012] Furthermore, a corresponding fixing block is fixedly provided on one side of the outlet conduit.
[0013] Furthermore, the upper pressure plate changes the point contact between the guide and the guide beam to a surface contact. By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. This utility model provides an improved exit guide structure for medium bar mills, which significantly reduces head bending during the rolling process by controlling the temperature difference between different surfaces of the billet. The bending ratio and bending degree per meter are effectively controlled, thus improving the straightness of the steel.

It should also be understood that, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to actual scale. Techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.
[0022] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" is generally based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this invention. The directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.
