Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold rolling technology of strip steel, and in particular to a counterweight device for a cold rolling looper connecting frame. Background Technology

[0002] In the cold rolling production process, the looper is a key piece of equipment to ensure the continuous and stable transmission of strip steel. It can buffer the speed difference between the preceding and following processes, store a certain amount of strip steel, and ensure that production is not interrupted due to short-term speed adjustments or equipment failures. However, because the looper frequently lifts, lowers, and starts and stops during operation, and has a complex structure and bears a large weight, especially some vertical loopers, the looper needs to support many steering rollers and a large steel structure. This results in significant inertia and impact forces during equipment operation. If not effectively controlled, this will not only cause serious wear to the mechanical parts of the equipment, shorten its service life, and increase maintenance costs, but also lead to unstable tension of the strip steel during transmission, thus affecting the key quality indicators of strip flatness and thickness uniformity. By using the principle of gravity balance to reduce the inertia and impact forces during the operation of the looper, a reasonably configured counterweight device can reduce the motor load, improve the motor's working efficiency, reduce energy consumption, significantly extend the motor's service life, and reduce the frequency of equipment maintenance.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222253851U, which discloses a counterweight device including a counterweight box and at least one fastening component for fixing the counterweight box to a turntable. The counterweight box has a first mounting hole that mates with the fastening component. The fastening component includes a push rod, a first connecting member, and a second connecting member. One end of the push rod is disposed in the first mounting hole and connected to the first connecting member, while the other end of the push rod extends out of the first mounting hole and passes through the turntable. The other end of the push rod is connected to the turntable via the second connecting member. This counterweight device can solve the problem of bolt breakage and increase safety during use. However, in the cold rolling process of strip steel, two looper carriages need to be connected. The two carriages frequently open and close, causing the connecting frame to be impacted. The connection point jumps due to inertia, and the hollow tube is prone to breakage under repeated impacts, resulting in the failure of the connection between the two carriages, which seriously affects the continuity and stability of production. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a counterweight device for a cold-rolled looper connecting frame, which aims to improve the problem in the prior art where hollow tubes are easily broken under repeated impacts, resulting in the failure of the connection between the two carriages and seriously affecting the continuity and stability of production.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a counterweight device for a cold-rolled looper connecting frame, comprising a solid tube, a fastening sleeve fixedly connected to the middle of the solid tube, anti-breakage mechanisms provided on the left and right sides of the solid tube to improve the stability of the connecting structure, buffer mechanisms provided on the front and rear sides of the solid tube to improve the buffering effect of the structure, the anti-breakage mechanism comprising an L-shaped plate, the right side of the L-shaped plate being installed on the left side of the solid tube, two holes being opened in the upper middle part of the L-shaped plate, and a bolt being threadedly connected to the inner wall of the holes, an L-shaped plate being installed on the right side of the solid tube, two holes being opened in the upper middle part of the L-shaped plate, and a bolt being threadedly connected to the inner wall of the holes, positioning holes being opened on both the left and right sides of the solid tube, a protective component being provided on the outer wall of the solid tube, a connecting component being provided on the left side of the L-shaped plate, and an installation component being provided on the right side of the L-shaped plate.

This effectively disperses external impacts in practical applications, thereby better protecting the safety of internal components.

[0048] Working principle: Replace the hollow tube with a solid tube 1, and place the solid tube 1 between protective frame 1 2081 and protective frame 2 2082. Then, use bolt 1 203 to pass through hole 1 202 and engage with positioning hole 207 on the left side of the solid tube 1, and use bolt 2 206 to pass through L-shaped plate 2 204 and engage with positioning hole 207 on the right side of the solid tube 1 to fix the solid tube 1. Since the solid tube 1 does not have the stress concentration problem caused by the thin wall thickness compared with the hollow tube, it has a stronger ability to resist bending deformation and torsion. L-shaped plate 1 201 and L-shaped plate 2 204 are fixed to the solid tube 1 by bolt 1 203 and bolt 2 206, forming a stable constraint structure, avoiding axial movement and lateral swing of the solid tube 1, reducing the risk of fatigue fracture caused by loosening at the connection, and can withstand high frequency impact, resist moisture corrosion, and is suitable for the complex environment of cold rolling.

[0049] When an impact occurs, spring plate 305 and spring plate 306 can buffer the L-shaped plate 201 on the left side and the L-shaped plate 204 on the right side of the solid tube 1. At the same time, the elastic block 301 on the left side and the elastic block 303 on the right side of the support plate 302 are also compressed and buffered during the process. The multiple buffer structure can effectively absorb the impact energy, prevent the L-shaped plate 201, solid tube 1 and L-shaped plate 204 from deforming and cracking due to excessive instantaneous impact force, and extend their service life. The buffering process reduces the vibration and displacement caused by the impact, prevents the connection between solid tube 1 and L-shaped plate 201 and L-shaped plate 204 from loosening, and ensures that the cold rolling looper trolley connection structure can remain stable after the impact, avoids the impact on the continuity of strip steel processing due to structural failure, and reduces the number of downtime maintenance.
