Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel packaging technology, specifically to a continuously cast billet packaging device with adjustable spacing. Background Technology

[0002] Continuously cast billets are the main output of steelmaking production lines and also the direct raw material for rolling mills. In the current steel industry, the mainstream production model is to closely integrate steelmaking and rolling mills to achieve "continuous casting and rolling." Under this model, the continuously cast billets produced in the steelmaking process are immediately and directly sent to the downstream rolling mill for rolling processing via hot conveying, without any intermediate steps of storage, packaging, or long-distance transportation as independent commodities.

[0003] However, some independent steelmaking enterprises also exist in the market. These enterprises do not have supporting rolling mill production lines, and their continuously cast billets are sold directly as end products. These billets, sold as commodities, must undergo hoisting, stacking, and warehousing, and are ultimately transported long distances by truck or train. In this series of logistics links, there are significant differences in the handling of billets of different specifications. For large-sized continuously cast billets (e.g., cross-sectional dimensions ≥150mm, length ≥6m), due to their large weight and length, they are easy to stack and pile using lifting equipment, and are less prone to disorder. Therefore, they usually do not require additional packaging and can be directly hoisted and transported.

[0004] However, the situation is completely different for small-sized continuously cast billets (e.g., cross-sectional dimensions <150mm, length <6m). These billets are lighter and shorter. If the bare-package method used for large-sized billets is adopted without pre-packaging, it will directly lead to a series of technical problems: First, single-piece or small-batch hoisting results in extremely low hoisting efficiency; second, the billets are prone to rolling or misalignment during transportation, leading to messy stacking and safety hazards; third, messy stacking cannot fully utilize the rated load capacity of transport vehicles (such as trucks or train cars), resulting in a serious underutilization of vehicle load capacity; finally, the loose billets also cause great inconvenience to unloading at the destination.

[0005] Despite the aforementioned packaging needs for small-sized billets, existing packaging equipment and tooling on the market are not designed for such applications. This is because, due to insufficient market competitiveness and high production costs, the aforementioned independent steelmaking enterprises have gradually been phased out of the industry. The few remaining independent steelmaking enterprises, in order to improve yield and enhance competitiveness, have generally shifted to producing larger-sized continuously cast billets with higher added value or easier processing.

[0006] Therefore, the market demand and output of small-sized continuously cast billets have continued to shrink, resulting in a near-complete lack of dedicated packaging equipment on the market. For some export orders of small-sized continuously cast billets, these orders require a complex logistics process involving short-haul truck transport followed by long-haul train transport. This makes the aforementioned problems of low hoisting efficiency and messy stacking caused by not packaging small-sized billets particularly prominent. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a simple and inexpensive temporary packaging device to solve the technical difficulties of the lack of suitable equipment and the inefficiency and neatness of packaging and transporting small-sized billets. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a continuously cast billet packaging device with adjustable spacing, so as to solve the problem that the existing small-sized continuously cast billets will have low hoisting efficiency and messy stacking if they are not packaged, and there is basically no corresponding packaging device on the market.

[0008] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A continuously cast billet packing device with adjustable spacing includes a front component and a rear component, which are separately arranged. The front assembly includes a front base, with a vertical baffle mounted at the end of the front base, and a stop block connecting the front base and the vertical baffle. The rear assembly includes a rear base, and side panels are connected to opposite sides of the front and rear bases.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes grooves machined on both the front and rear bases; the side baffles are fixedly connected to the front or rear bases by bolts passing through the grooves.

[0010] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of both the front base and the rear base is trapezoidal.

[0011] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the stop is triangular.

[0012] Furthermore, the side baffles are L-shaped.

[0013] Furthermore, the stop block is fixedly connected to the upright baffle and the front base.

[0014] Furthermore, hooks are installed at the top of each side panel.

[0015] This invention offers the following advantages: By configuring the device into separate front and rear components, the spacing between the front and rear parts is adjustable; simultaneously, the spacing between the side baffles is also adjustable through the grooves and bolts connecting the side baffles to the base. This design allows the packaging device to package small-sized billets of various lengths and widths, making it highly versatile. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0019] Please refer to Figure 1-3 A continuously cast billet packaging device with adjustable spacing includes a front component and a rear component, which are separate from each other and spaced apart, and are not physically connected.

[0020] Specifically, the front assembly includes a front base 3. A vertical baffle 2 is vertically mounted on the end of the front base 3 (i.e., the end facing the head of the billet 8). A stop block 1 connects the front base 3 and the baffle 2, which strengthens the connection between the baffle 2 and the front base 3. In this embodiment, the stop block 1 is fixedly connected to the baffle 2 and the front base 3 by welding to withstand the thrust generated when the billet 8 is aligned with the head.

[0021] The rear assembly includes a rear base 4. For stacking the billets 8, side baffles 5 are connected to the opposite sides of the front base 3 and the rear base 4.

[0022] In this embodiment, to accommodate billets of different specifications, grooves are machined on both the front base 3 and the rear base 4. Side baffles 5 pass through these grooves via bolts 6 and are fixedly connected to the front base 3 or the rear base 4. The working principle is as follows: when the packing width needs to be adjusted, the bolts 6 can be loosened, the position of the side baffle 5 can be moved within the groove range, and after adjusting to the appropriate width, the bolts 6 can be fixed again. Simultaneously, since the front and rear components are separate, the spacing between the two components can be adjusted to accommodate billets 8 of different lengths.

[0023] Both the front base 3 and the rear base 4 have trapezoidal cross-sectional shapes. The stop block 1 has a triangular cross-sectional shape. This trapezoidal and triangular design saves manufacturing materials and reduces the cost of the device. On the other hand, the trapezoidal base design increases the contact area between the device and the ground, preventing displacement of the device when placing or adjusting the billet 8, thus improving stability.

[0024] The trapezoidal front base 3 and rear base 4 elevate the billet 8 placed on them, giving the billet 8 a clearance from the ground that is the same height as the base. This clearance allows packaging tools (such as wire rod, steel strip, etc.) and hoisting tools (such as wire rope, chain, etc.) to easily pass through the bottom of the billet 8, significantly improving packaging and hoisting efficiency.

[0025] The side baffle 5 is L-shaped, and its horizontal part is used to install bolts 6 and mates with the grooves on the front base 3 and the rear base 4 respectively.

[0026] A hook 7 is welded to the top of each side baffle 5. The hook 7 is used to facilitate the lifting of the entire unit (front or rear assembly) to a suitable area by a crane when the unit is not in use, without obstructing on-site operations.

[0027] The working process of this utility model is as follows: Place the front and rear components on a flat surface. Adjust the spacing between the front and rear components according to the length of the billet 8, ensuring they are aligned and aligned. Adjust the distance between the upper baffles 5 of the front and rear components using the slots and bolts 6, based on the width of the billet 8, to ensure the front spacing is equal to the rear spacing.

[0028] The billet 8 is transported to the packaging device by forklift or crane and placed layer by layer on the front base 3 and the rear base 4.

[0029] If the billet 8 becomes uneven during the stacking process, it should be aligned from the rear component of the device towards the front component (i.e., push the billet 8 so that its end abuts against the vertical baffle 2). Since the front component has the vertical baffle 2 positioning end and is reinforced by the stop block 1, it can withstand a large pushing force and prevent the device from shifting.

[0030] After placement, the bundles are bundled and packaged using the clearance between the front base 3 and the rear base 4. Then, a crane uses this clearance to move lifting equipment and transport the packaged bundles of billets to the stacking location.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
