Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of hot-rolled round steel production equipment, specifically relating to a conveying and guiding mechanism for hot-rolled round steel. Background Technology

[0002] After hot rolling, round steel bars need to be transported to other locations. During this process, the transport direction needs to be adjusted, requiring a transport guiding mechanism for hot-rolled round steel bars. Currently, this mechanism consists of several spaced guide plates or rollers along the transport path. By adjusting the position, angle, or shape of each guide plate or roller, the transport angle of the hot-rolled round steel bars is gradually changed under the constraint of the guide plates or rollers until they reach the next process equipment or location. Its main drawback is:

[0003] Because guide plates or rollers require multiple sets of coordination to gradually correct deviation, the required conveying length is relatively long and the adjustment range is limited. The diameter of hot-rolled round steel is 20mm to 100mm. Depending on the processing operation of the next process, the conveying path will correspond to different equipment inlets. Therefore, for conveying hot-rolled round steel of different specifications and with different conveying directions, it is necessary for staff to frequently adjust the guide mechanism or manually adjust the guide direction of the hot-rolled round steel. It is not possible to quickly adjust the guide direction, which increases the frequency of contact between staff and equipment. It is not very convenient to use, increases the accident rate during operation, and reduces the overall safety of the work and the speed of subsequent work.

[0004] Secondly, the transport guidance mechanism is only responsible for conveying and turning. Hot-rolled round steel is at a high temperature, and it is difficult to cool it down quickly during transportation. The cooling of hot-rolled round steel is usually concentrated in the subsequent cooling equipment, which leads to a high dependence on the subsequent cooling equipment. The high plasticity of the metal at high temperature also increases the risk of deformation during transportation, affecting the efficiency of subsequent work. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to at least partially solve one of the above-mentioned technical problems. The present invention provides a conveying and guiding mechanism for hot-rolled round steel, which can adapt to the rapid orientation requirements of hot-rolled round steel of various specifications, reduce the reliance on subsequent cooling equipment, and help improve production efficiency and safety.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A conveying and guiding mechanism for hot-rolled round steel includes a conveying mechanism and a steering mechanism located at the end of the conveying mechanism. The steering mechanism includes a steering member, a first support member, and a first driving mechanism. One end of the steering member has an opening that can face the conveying mechanism, and the other end of the steering member has a limiting member. The steering member has a groove inside. The first driving mechanism is used to drive the steering member to reciprocate relative to the first support member in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0008] To further adapt to bearing hot-rolled round steel of different specifications, in the preferred technical solution, the groove is an arc-shaped groove.

[0009] To further simplify the driving of the steering component, in a preferred embodiment, the first driving mechanism includes a first motor, a second support member, and a second motor. The first motor drives the second support member to reciprocate in the vertical direction relative to the first support member, and the second motor drives the steering component to oscillate in the horizontal direction relative to the second support member.

[0010] To further reduce reliance on subsequent cooling equipment and the risk of deformation during transport, in a preferred embodiment, the transport mechanism is equipped with a cooling mechanism.

[0011] To further facilitate rapid cooling of hot-rolled round steel, in a preferred embodiment, the cooling mechanism includes a water pumping device and at least one nozzle connected to the water pumping device, the nozzle facing the conveying mechanism.

[0012] To further improve the installation of the nozzles and the reliability of the nozzle water cooling, in a preferred embodiment, the cooling mechanism includes at least one water storage component disposed on the conveying mechanism, the water storage component being connected to the water storage device and the nozzle respectively.

[0013] To further facilitate rapid water pumping and connection, in a preferred technical solution, the water pumping port of the pumping device is threaded with a threaded locking mechanism.

[0014] To further facilitate the conveying of hot-rolled round steel, in a preferred embodiment, the conveying mechanism includes a third support member, a conveyor belt, and a third drive mechanism, wherein the third drive mechanism is used to drive the conveyor belt to rotate relative to the third support member.

[0015] To further facilitate the conveying of hot-rolled round steel and to facilitate the timely discharge of cooling water from the conveying mechanism, in a preferred embodiment, the conveyor belt includes several conveyor bars arranged at intervals.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are at least as follows:

[0017] (1) The adjusting mechanism of the conveying guide mechanism can drive the adjusting component to rotate relative to the first support component in the horizontal and vertical directions through the first driving mechanism, so that the opening faces the conveying mechanism. After the conveying mechanism conveys the hot-rolled round steel from the opening position to the groove of the adjusting component, the hot-rolled round steel is restricted from coming out by the limiting component. The adjusting component rotates relative to the first support component in the vertical direction, so that the opening position changes direction, and the guiding direction can be quickly adjusted. The adjusting component rotates relative to the first support component in the horizontal direction, so that the opening position tilts downward, and the material can be quickly unloaded and conveyed. There is no need for the staff to manually adjust it. It can effectively solve the problem that the existing technology cannot meet the problem of rapid adjustment of hot-rolled round steel of various specifications, reduce the frequency of contact between the staff and the equipment, reduce the incidence of safety accidents in the work, improve the overall safety of the work, make the conveying guide mechanism for hot-rolled round steel more convenient to use, and also improve the working speed of subsequent work and improve production efficiency.

[0018] (2) The cooling mechanism of the conveying and guiding mechanism can quickly cool down the hot rolled round steel passing through during the conveying process, reducing the reliance on cooling equipment and reducing the probability of deformation during transportation, which is conducive to the rapid progress of subsequent work and improves production efficiency.

Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" or "several" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0028] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0029] To address the current situation where existing hot-rolled round steel conveying and guiding mechanisms require manual operation or adjustment, and it is difficult to quickly adjust the guiding direction for hot-rolled round steel of various specifications, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, this is a preferred embodiment of the hot-rolled round steel conveying and guiding mechanism of the present invention. The hot-rolled round steel conveying and guiding mechanism includes a conveying mechanism 25 and a steering mechanism 26 located at the end of the conveying mechanism 25. The steering mechanism 26 includes a steering member 13, a first support member 28 and a first driving mechanism 29. One end of the steering member 13 is provided with an opening 22 that can face the conveying mechanism 25, and the other end of the steering member 13 is provided with a limiting member 24. The steering member 13 is provided with a groove 23. The first driving mechanism 29 is used to drive the steering member 13 to reciprocate relative to the first support member 28 in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0030] For example: the hot-rolled round steel conveying and guiding mechanism includes a base plate 1, the conveying mechanism 25 is mounted on the base plate 1, the first support member 28 includes several vertical plates 8 fixedly connected to the base plate 1 and located behind the conveying mechanism 25, the first driving mechanism 29 is mounted on the vertical plates 8, the adjusting member 13 has a frame-shaped structure with a groove 23 inside, one end and the top of the adjusting member 13 are set as openings 22, the other end of the adjusting member 13 is blocked by a plate-shaped limiting member 24, and when the adjusting member 13 is in a horizontal state, its height is equal to or lower than the conveying surface of the conveying mechanism 25. Then the working principle of the above-mentioned conveying and guiding mechanism can include:

[0031] The directional mechanism 26 drives the directional member 13 to rotate vertically relative to the first support member 28 via the first drive mechanism 29, so that the opening 22 of the directional member 13 faces the conveying mechanism 25. If the position of the opening 22 is lower than the conveying surface of the conveying mechanism 25, the directional member 13 can be driven to rotate horizontally relative to the first support member 28 via the first drive mechanism 29, so that the directional member 13 is in an inclined state and the position of the opening 22 is inclined upward and close to the conveying surface. Then the conveying mechanism 25 can convey the hot-rolled round steel from the conveying mechanism 25 and convey it to the directional member 13 along the position of the opening 22, so that the hot-rolled round steel gradually falls completely into the groove 23 of the directional member 13. The groove 23 restricts the left and right swaying of the hot-rolled round steel, and the limiting member 24 stops the hot-rolled round steel to prevent the hot-rolled round steel from falling out of the directional member 13 during the conveying process. Compared with the existing guiding mechanism, which requires adjusting the spacing of the guide plates or rollers on both sides of the hot-rolled round steel to adapt to the hot-rolled round billets of different specifications, the groove 23 can adapt to the conveying of hot-rolled round billets of different specifications.

[0032] The conveying direction is determined according to the position of the next operation or the equipment inlet. The first drive mechanism 29 of the adjusting member 13 drives the adjusting member 13 to rotate in the vertical direction relative to the first support member 28, so that the opening 22 of the adjusting member 13 faces the corresponding position. The guiding direction is adjusted quickly in this way. Then, the first drive mechanism 29 drives the adjusting member 13 to rotate in the horizontal direction relative to the first support member 28, so that the opening 22 is tilted downward. The hot-rolled round steel in the adjusting member 13 can automatically fall to the appropriate position in the appropriate direction along the inclined groove 23. After the adjusting member 13 is unloaded, the first drive mechanism 29 drives the adjusting member 13 to rotate and reset to the initial state. In this way, the conveying and guiding of the next hot-rolled round steel is carried out.

[0033] Compared to guide plates or rollers that require multiple sets of coordination for gradual correction, resulting in longer conveying lengths and limited adjustment ranges, the adjusting component 13 can rotate vertically, allowing for immediate adjustment of the guiding direction. Furthermore, the opening 22 of the adjusting component 13 can be aligned with any direction based on the rotation direction, thereby reducing the conveying length and expanding the adjustment range. Through the adjustment mechanism 26 in conjunction with the conveying mechanism 25, automatic adjustment and unloading are achieved, eliminating the need for manual adjustments by personnel. This effectively solves the problem of rapid adjustment of various specifications of hot-rolled round steel, which is currently unavailable in existing technologies. This reduces the frequency of contact between workers and equipment, lowers the incidence of accidents during operation, improves overall work safety, and makes the conveying and guiding mechanism for hot-rolled round steel more convenient to use, while also increasing the speed of subsequent work.

[0034] Furthermore, the groove 23 is an arc-shaped groove, for example, as... Figure 5 As shown, the arc-shaped groove is open at one end (22) and sealed at the other end, and can adapt to the bearing of hot-rolled round steel of different specifications through the arc surface.

[0035] Furthermore, the first drive mechanism 29 includes a first motor 10, a second support member 11, and a second motor 12. The first motor 10 drives the second support member 11 to reciprocate vertically relative to the first support member 28, and the second motor 12 drives the steering member 13 to reciprocate horizontally relative to the second support member 11. Figures 1-3As shown, the first support member 28 includes several upright plates 8 and fixed plates 9. The fixed plates 9 are fixedly connected to the top of the upright plates 8, and a vertically arranged first motor 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed plates 9. The output shaft of the first motor 10 is fixedly connected to a frame-shaped second support member 11 via a coupling. Thus, the first motor 10 can drive the second support member 11 to reciprocate relative to the first support member 28 around the vertical axis of the first motor 10. A horizontally arranged second motor 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the second support member 11, and the coupling of the output shaft of the second motor 12 passes through the second support member 11. The support member 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the middle part of the adjusting member 13. The length of the adjusting member 13 is greater than the length of the second support member 11. In this way, the second motor 12 can drive the adjusting member 13 to swing back and forth relative to the second support member 11 around the horizontal axis of the second motor 12. Then, through combined motion, the first drive mechanism 29 drives the adjusting member 13 to rotate back and forth relative to the first support member 28 in the horizontal and vertical directions. By setting and controlling the first motor 10 and the second motor 12 respectively, the driving of the adjusting member 13 can be further simplified, and the guiding direction can be quickly adjusted.

[0036] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism 25 is provided with a cooling mechanism 27, for example: Figures 1-5 As shown, the cooling mechanism 27 is installed on the conveying path of the conveying mechanism 25. During the conveying process, the hot-rolled round steel can be cooled and cooled by the cooling mechanism 27. Compared with air cooling, the cooling speed can be increased, further reducing the reliance on subsequent cooling equipment. It also reduces the probability of deformation due to the high temperature and high plasticity of the hot-rolled round steel during transportation, which is conducive to the rapid progress of subsequent work.

[0037] Furthermore, the cooling mechanism 27 includes a water pumping device 15 and at least one nozzle 21 connected to the water pumping device 15, the nozzle 21 facing the conveying mechanism 25, for example: Figures 1-5 As shown, four support plates 2 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. Each pair of support plates 2 forms a group that supports the two side plates 3 of the conveying mechanism 25. A pad 14 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the side plates 3. A water pumping device 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the pad 14 to provide support for the operation of the mechanism. If it is necessary to cool the hot-rolled round steel during the conveying process, water can be supplied to the nozzle 21 through the water pumping device 15. The nozzle 21 is used to spray water to cool the passing hot-rolled round steel. Compared with the air cooling method, it is easier to cool the hot-rolled round steel quickly.

[0038] Furthermore, the cooling mechanism 27 includes at least one water storage component 30 disposed on the conveying mechanism 25, the water storage component 30 being connected to a water storage device and a spray nozzle 21, for example: Figures 1-5As shown, the water storage component 30 includes a water storage frame 19 and multiple hollow frames 20. The outlet of the pumping device 15 is fixedly connected to an outlet pipe 18, and the top of the outlet pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the water storage frame 19. The water storage frame 19 can connect to one end of multiple hollow frames 20 to store and distribute water. The hollow frame 20 has a U-shaped structure, and the other end of the hollow frame 20 is fixedly connected to the side plate 3. Multiple nozzles 21 are respectively located at the bottom of the middle part of the hollow frame 20 and at the conveying mechanism 25. The spray is directed downwards. When the user needs to use it, the conveying mechanism 25 transports the hot-rolled round steel through the area below the nozzle 21. The pumping device 15 then pumps water into the storage frame 19 and the hollow frame 20. At that time, the nozzle 21 will spray water to cool the passing round steel. The water storage component 30 can support the nozzle 21, improve the installation reliability of the nozzle 21, and provide a certain amount of water storage and buffering effect, making the water output of the nozzle 21 more uniform and the cooling more reliable.

[0039] Furthermore, the pumping port of the pumping device 15 is threadedly connected with a threaded locking buckle 17, for example: Figures 1-5 As shown, the pumping device 15 can be a water pump. The water inlet of the pumping device 15 is fixedly connected to a pumping threaded pipe 16. The outer wall of the pumping threaded pipe 16 is movably connected to a threaded lock 17. The pumping threaded pipe 16 can be locked to the external water supply pipe by screwing the threaded lock 17 outward along the pumping threaded pipe 16. The threaded lock 17 can also be replaced with an existing quick connector for easy quick water pumping connection.

[0040] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism 25 includes a third support member 31, a conveyor belt 32, and a third drive mechanism 33. The third drive mechanism 33 is used to drive the conveyor belt 32 to rotate relative to the third support member 31, for example: Figures 1-5 As shown, the third support member 31 consists of two side plates 3, and the third drive mechanism 33 includes a third motor 4 and two transmission rollers 5. The third motor 4 is fixed to one side of one of the side plates 3. The output shaft of the third motor 4 is fixedly connected to one transmission roller 5 through a coupling, and the other transmission roller 5 is rotatably connected to the side plate 3. A conveyor belt 32 is fixedly and movably connected to the outer wall of the transmission roller 5. The transmission roller 5 connected by the third motor 4 is driven to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 32 rotates under the support of the two transmission rollers 5. During the rotation of the conveyor belt 32, the hot-rolled round steel above can be conveyed forward, which facilitates the conveying of the hot-rolled round steel.

[0041] Furthermore, the conveyor belt 32 includes a plurality of conveyor bars 7 spaced apart, for example: Figures 1-5As shown, the conveyor belt 32 includes two long conveyor belts 6 that cooperate with the drive rollers 5 on both sides respectively. Several metal conveyor strips 7 are provided between the two long conveyor belts 6. When the hot-rolled round steel reaches the top of the metal strips, the third motor 4 works. The output shaft of the third motor 4 rotates, causing the drive rollers 5 to drive the long conveyor belts 6 and the metal strips to be conveyed. This facilitates the conveying of the hot-rolled round steel. Since gaps are formed between adjacent conveyor strips 7, it is convenient for heat dissipation and also convenient for cooling water to be discharged from the conveyor mechanism 25 in time when the cooling mechanism 27 is turned on.

[0042] The detailed descriptions listed above are merely specific descriptions of feasible embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. All equivalent embodiments or modifications made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
