Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a device for online rapid measurement of the length of steel billets entering the furnace, belonging to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for steelmaking production. Background Technology
[0002] After steel billets produced in steelmaking are cut to specified lengths and widths, they undergo a series of subsequent processes and are directly conveyed to the charging port of the heating furnace via hot conveyor rollers. The charging machine's boom is used for alignment and loading. Alternatively, they can be transported by truck or hoisted from the stockyard to the charging port for alignment and loading. Once the billets are heated to the required process temperature, they are tapped from the heating furnace and rolled into the designated specifications by a rolling mill.
[0003] During steel loading operations, one side of the billet faces the charging port of the heating furnace. Due to various factors such as malfunction of the length-fixing equipment, system bugs, information transmission errors, and incorrect billet hoisting, the actual length of the billet before entering the furnace may not match the loading information. This can easily lead to major accidents in the heating furnace, such as the billet falling off the track, scraping against the furnace door and furnace wall. Oversized billets may also damage rolling mill equipment, such as rolling mill stand rolls and valves, or cause equipment damage due to excessive torque. At the same time, it will affect the yield of the production line. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately know the length of the billet before entering the furnace.
[0004] Existing billet length measuring devices mostly consist of fixed-length machines and require precision components such as laser rangefinders and sensors, significantly increasing equipment costs and maintenance. They are also difficult to adapt to high-temperature conditions and are rarely installed at the furnace front for on-site measurement of billet length. Furthermore, due to the rapid heat transfer, high billet temperature, and fast loading pace, it is impossible to manually remeasure each billet; only random checks and verification are possible. Moreover, due to the high labor intensity for workers and significant safety hazards in the working environment, mismeasurements frequently occur. Therefore, there is a strong need to design a device that can perform on-site measurement of billet length at the furnace front to solve the problem of billet length measurement.

[0033] This utility model consists of a fixed bracket 5, a rotating arm 6, a measuring ruler 7, a water pipe adapter 8, and a cooling water pipe 9.
[0034] Figure 1 , 2Figure 3 shows that two fixed brackets 5 are respectively fixed on both sides of the steel loading machine support arm 1 in front of the furnace door 4, used to support the rotating arm 6 and the measuring ruler 7. The fixed bracket 5 consists of a base plate 10, a column 11, a fixed shaft 12, and a circular baffle 13. The base plate 10 has anchor bolt holes 14, through which the fixing bolts fix the base plate 10 to the feet on both sides of the steel loading machine support arm 1. The column 11 is an upright rectangular column, and the lower end of the column 11 is welded to the base plate 10. The fixed shaft 12 is installed on the upper end of the column 11, and the end face of the fixed shaft 12 has baffle fixing screw holes 15. The diameter of the circular baffle 13 is larger than the outer diameter of the fixed shaft 12. The circular baffle 13 has a through hole 16 that corresponds to the baffle fixing screw hole 15 on the end face of the fixed shaft 12. The baffle bolts fix the circular baffle 13 to the end face of the fixed shaft 12.

[0035] Figure 1 , 4 The rotating arm 6 is composed of a swing rod 17, a connecting rod 18, and a push rod 19. The swing rod 17 and connecting rod 18 are rectangular tubes. The rear end of the swing rod 17 has a rotating shaft hole 20, which is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 12 at the upper end of the fixed bracket 5. The rear end of the swing rod 17 is welded to and connected to the upper end of the connecting rod 18. The push rod 19 is a round tube, and its inner end is welded to and connected to the lower end of the connecting rod 18. A sleeve 21 is fitted around the outside of the push rod 19. The inner diameter of the sleeve 21 matches the outer diameter of the push rod 19, and the sleeve 21 and the push rod 19 are in a rotatable fit. The sleeve 21 is in rolling contact with the upper surface of the steel loading machine support arm 1. When the steel loading machine support arm 1 moves, the sleeve 21 pushes the push rod 19 to move. The push rod 19, through the connecting rod 18, drives the rotating shaft hole 20 of the swing rod 17 to swing around the fixed shaft 12 at the upper end of the fixed bracket 5, thereby moving the measuring ruler 7.
[0036] Figure 1 , 4 The display shows that water pipe adapters 8 are welded to the front end of the swing rod 17 and the outer end face of the push rod 19, respectively, and the water pipe adapters 8 are connected to the cooling water pipes 9. Cooling water enters the swing rod 17, connecting rod 18 and push rod 19 through the water pipe adapters 8 to circulate, thereby cooling the swing rod 17, connecting rod 18 and push rod 19 and preventing damage to the swing rod 17, connecting rod 18 and push rod 19 caused by the high temperature of the steel billet.
[0037] Figure 1 , 4The rotating arm 6 has a guide sleeve 22 welded to its front end of the swing rod 17. The guide sleeve 22 is a rectangular tube and is perpendicular to the swing rod 17. The inner diameter of the guide sleeve 22 matches the outer diameter of the measuring ruler 7. The measuring ruler 7 is inserted into the guide sleeve 22, and the measuring ruler 7 and the guide sleeve 22 are in a sliding fit. The rotating arm 6 moves the measuring ruler 7 through the guide sleeve 22.
[0038] Figure 1 , 5 The measuring ruler 7 consists of a measuring rod 23 and a billet stop 24. Both the measuring rod 23 and the billet stop 24 are rectangular tubes, vertically welded together in an L-shape. The end openings of both the measuring rod 23 and the billet stop 24 are sealed with blind flanges. Both ends of the measuring rod 23 are inserted into the inner holes of the guide sleeves 22 at the front ends of the two rotating arms 6, with a sliding fit between the measuring rod 23 and the guide sleeves 22. The side of the measuring rod 23 has scale lines 25 for measuring the length of the billet 3. The billet stop 24 is located in the gap between the billet conveying rollers 2 and can move up and down within this gap. When the billet 3 is conveyed along the billet conveying rollers 2, the billet stop 24 positions the billet 3 at its front end for measurement. Water pipe adapters 8 are welded to both the measuring rod 23 and the billet stop 24, and these adapters are connected to cooling water pipes 9. The cooling water is used to cool the measuring ruler 7.
[0039] Figure 1 , 6 The display shows that at the connection between the measuring scale 7 and the guide sleeve 22 at the front end of the swing arm 17 of the rotating arm 6, there are measuring scale collars 26 and guide sleeve collars 27, respectively. Both measuring scale collars 26 and guide sleeve collars 27 have rectangular inner holes 28. The dimensions of the rectangular inner holes 28 of the measuring scale collars 26 and guide sleeve collars 27 match the external dimensions of the measuring scale 7 and guide sleeve 22, respectively. The rectangular inner holes 28 of the measuring scale collars 26 and guide sleeve collars 27 are respectively fitted onto the outside of the measuring scale 7 and guide sleeve 22. The top surfaces of the measuring scale collars 26 and guide sleeve collars 27 have tightening screw holes 29 that communicate with the rectangular inner holes 28. The tightening bolts are tightened to the outer walls of the measuring scale 7 and guide sleeve 22 through the tightening screw holes 29, respectively. A spring 30 is fitted onto the measuring scale 7 between the measuring scale collar 26 and guide sleeve collar 27, with both ends of the spring 30 connected to the measuring scale collar 26 and guide sleeve collar 27, respectively. During use, the preload of the spring 30 can be adjusted by tightening the bolts to adjust the distance between the measuring scale collar 26 and the guide sleeve collar 27, which is used to reset the measuring scale 7.
[0040] Figure 7 , 8The guide sleeve 22 has an outwardly extending rectangular protrusion 31 on the inner wall of its inner bore. A rectangular groove 32 is formed on the inner side wall of the guide sleeve 22 inside the rectangular protrusion 31. A slider 33 is placed within the rectangular groove 32, and the size of the slider 33 matches the rectangular groove 32. The rectangular protrusion 31 has an adjusting screw hole 34, and the slider 33 has a circular blind hole 35 corresponding to the adjusting screw hole 34 on the rectangular protrusion 31. The adjusting bolt connects the adjusting screw hole 34 on the rectangular protrusion 31 to the circular blind hole 35 on the slider 33. In use, the slider 33 placed on the inner wall of the guide sleeve 22 slides in contact with the side wall of the measuring scale 7. The friction between the slider 33 and the measuring scale 7 can be adjusted by the adjusting bolt, allowing the measuring scale 7 to slowly adhere to and detach from the steel billet 3.
[0041] Figure 1 The camera 36 is mounted on the outside of the end of the measuring ruler 7, corresponding to the scale markings. The camera 36 is aligned with the scale indicator line 25 of the measuring ruler 7, and the camera 36 has a display screen capable of displaying the length of the billet 3. When measuring the length of the billet 3, the length of the billet 3 measured by the measuring ruler 7 can be observed through the display screen of the camera 36.
[0042] Figure 9 The device is located in front of the furnace door 4 of the heating furnace, installed above the steel charging machine support arm 1 and the billet conveying roller table 2, and is used to measure the length of the billet 3 before it enters the furnace. The sleeve 21 of the rotating arm 6 is tangent to the upper surface of the steel charging machine support arm 1 and can roll into contact with it as the steel charging machine support arm 1 moves horizontally. The rotating arm 6 can rotate with the lifting and lowering movement of the steel charging machine support arm 1.

At this time, the upper surface of the steel loading machine support arm 1 is still lower than the roller surface of the billet conveying roller table 2, and the rotating arm 6 and the measuring ruler 7 are located above the billet conveying roller table 2. The billet conveying roller table 2 is started to transport the billet 3 to the furnace door 4 of the heating furnace so that it contacts the billet stop bar 24 of the measuring ruler 7.
[0046] The loading machine support arm 1 is moved laterally a certain distance towards the billet 3 and aligned with the billet 3. The measuring ruler 7 adjusts its position adaptively under the action of the spring 30. At this time, the length dimension can be viewed on the display of the camera 36.
