Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a device for straightening steel section bends, belonging to the technical field of hot-rolled steel section technology in the metallurgical industry. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the centering device after finishing mill rolling in a steel section mill consists of a swing arm base, swing arm assembly, centering hydraulic cylinder, guide wheel assembly, guide assembly, push plate assembly, and hydraulic piping. It is used to guide the finished steel sections exiting the finishing mill onto the post-finishing mill transport roller conveyor. Existing centering devices only have a guiding function and lack straightening capabilities. However, during the rolling process, temperature and adjustment differences can cause the steel section head to bend, forming a bend. When this bend enters the cooling bed skirt input roller conveyor, its trajectory is easily deviated, colliding with straightening plates and vertical rollers. In severe cases, the bend can even cause it to run off the post-finishing mill transport roller conveyor or the cooling bed skirt input roller conveyor. According to production reports, a steel plant experienced 318 minutes of downtime due to steel section bends in 2024, severely impacting the production efficiency of medium-sized production lines and posing significant safety hazards.
