Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel technology, specifically to an automatic billet torsion device. Background Technology

[0002] In the steel production and processing industry, steel billets are an important raw material, and the quality of their subsequent processing directly affects the performance and market competitiveness of the final product. Before entering the subsequent processing stage, steel billets need to undergo a series of pretreatment and testing operations to ensure that their shape, size and other parameters meet the processing requirements, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the processing and the stability of product quality.

[0003] However, in traditional billet processing production lines, the inspection and adjustment of billets mainly rely on manual operation. When the billet moves on the roller conveyor, the staff needs to visually check whether the billet exists and whether its shape is normal. This method has many drawbacks. On the one hand, the accuracy and timeliness of manual inspection are difficult to guarantee, especially when the production pace is fast, and it is easy to miss or misjudge, which will cause unqualified billets to enter the subsequent processing stage, affecting product quality and even causing equipment damage. On the other hand, manual inspection is inefficient, which increases the production cycle and labor costs and reduces the overall production efficiency. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, an automatic billet torsion device includes a base 1. Four connecting plates 2 are fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1, arranged in pairs symmetrically with the center line of the base 1. A rotating column 3 is rotatably connected to one side of each connecting plate 2. An adjusting mechanism 4 is located on one side of the rotating column 3, and a fixing block 5 is located on one side of the adjusting mechanism 4. A roller conveyor 6 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing block 5. The roller conveyor 6 is used to transport steel billets. A support plate 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the roller conveyor 6, and the support plate 12 works in conjunction with the roller conveyor 6. Two fixing plates 7 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the roller conveyor 6, symmetrically with the center line of the roller conveyor 6. A connecting column 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing plate 7. Rotating plates 9 are rotatably connected to both ends of the connecting column 8. The bottom of the rotating plate 9 is fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1. Under this action, when the roller conveyor 6 rotates, it will drive the fixing plate 7 and the connecting column 8 to rotate on one side of the rotating plate 9, thereby making the rotation of the roller conveyor 6 more stable and reducing the risk of uneven rotation. In case of a dangerous situation, a fixed frame 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1. The fixed frame 10 has an L-shaped structure design and a control mechanism 11 is set on the surface of the fixed frame 10. The control mechanism 11 can detect the degree of bending of the steel billet on the surface of the roller conveyor 6. Under this action, when the steel billet moves on the surface of the roller conveyor 6, the control mechanism 11 will first detect the presence of the steel billet. Two seconds later, the roller conveyor 6 will stop running. Then, the control mechanism 11 will check the bending degree of the steel billet on the surface of the roller conveyor 6. If the shape of the steel billet is normal, the roller conveyor 6 will continue to run, allowing the steel billet to enter the subsequent processing stage. If the shape of the steel billet is severely bent, the adjustment mechanism 4 will be activated, causing the fixed block 5 to drive the roller conveyor 6 and the fixed plate 7 to flip. At this time, the steel billet on the surface of the roller conveyor 6 will gradually come into contact with the surface of the support plate 12, thereby realizing the flipping operation of the steel billet. Moreover, the operator can flip the steel billet several times according to the actual situation, which can facilitate the steel billet to enter the subsequent processing stage, improve production efficiency, and also improve the versatility and flexibility of the production line.

[0022] The adjustment mechanism 4 includes a cylinder 41 fixedly connected to one side of the rotating column 3. The output shaft of the cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to a connecting block 42. A connecting rod 43 is rotatably connected to the surface of the connecting block 42. A fixing column 44 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting rod 43. A fixing block 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixing column 44. Under this action, opening the cylinder 41 can drive the connecting block 42 to rotate on the inner wall of the connecting rod 43. At the same time, the connecting rod 43 will make an arc motion around the axis, thereby driving the fixing column 44 and the fixing block 5 to flip, thus providing the necessary preconditions for subsequent use. When the cylinder 41 is working, it can drive the rotating column 3 to rotate on one side of the connecting plate 2, so that the cylinder 41 can be used normally.

[0023] The control mechanism 11 includes a metal detector 111 disposed on the inner wall of the fixed frame 10, which can detect the presence of steel billets on the surface of the roller conveyor 6. An optical fiber sensor 112 is disposed on the inner wall of the fixed frame 10, which can detect the degree of bending of the steel billets. A control panel 113 is disposed on the surface of the fixed frame 10. The metal detector 111, optical fiber sensor 112, and control panel 113 work together. Under this operation, the control panel 113, as the core of the control mechanism 11, can receive the detection signals from the metal detector 111 and the optical fiber sensor 112, and based on the detection... By analyzing the measured information, the control panel 113 can make corresponding control decisions. When the metal detector 111 detects a steel billet on the surface of the roller conveyor 6, the control panel 113 can issue a command to the roller conveyor 6 to stop its operation. Then, the fiber optic sensor 112 detects the degree of bending of the steel billet. If the shape of the steel billet is normal, the control panel 113 will issue a command to the roller conveyor 6 to continue its operation. If the shape of the steel billet is severely bent, the control panel 113 will issue a command to the adjustment mechanism 4 to start working, thereby improving the overall product qualification rate and quality stability, and making the production process smoother and more efficient.

[0024] Working principle: When the steel billet moves on the surface of roller conveyor 6, the metal detector 111 detects its presence in real time. Once detected, it transmits a signal to the control panel 113, stopping roller conveyor 6. Subsequently, the fiber optic sensor 112 detects the degree of bending of the steel billet on the surface of roller conveyor 6 and feeds the result back to the control panel 113. The control panel 113 analyzes the detection information from the fiber optic sensor 112. If the billet shape is normal, the control panel 113 sends a command to roller conveyor 6 to continue running and send the billet to the subsequent processing stage. If the billet is severely bent, the control panel 113 will control the flow of the steel billet. Plate 113 prevents roller conveyor 6 from continuing to run, instead sending a command to cylinder 41, causing cylinder 41 to drive connecting block 42 to rotate on the inner wall of connecting rod 43. At the same time, connecting rod 43 will move in an arc around the axis, thereby causing fixed column 44, fixed block 5, roller conveyor 6 and fixed plate 7 to flip. During the flipping process, the steel billet on the surface of roller conveyor 6 will gradually come into contact with the surface of support plate 12, thereby realizing the flipping operation of steel billet. Moreover, the operator can flip the steel billet several times according to the actual situation to make the steel billet reach a suitable state, so that the steel billet can enter the subsequent processing stage more smoothly, improving production efficiency and enhancing the versatility and flexibility of the production line.

Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model.
