Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Bildung von Schlingen aus einem, aus einer Walzdrahtstraße austretenden Drahtstrang mittels eines rotierenden Schlingenlegers nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 (siehe z.B. DE-A-35 37 668).The invention relates to a device for forming loops from a wire strand emerging from a wire rod mill using a rotating sling layer according to the preamble of the claim 1 (see e.g. DE-A-35 37 668).
Moderne Drahtwalzstraßen arbeiten mit immer höher werdenden Endgeschwindigkeiten, insb. beim Walzen von Draht mit kleinem Durchmesser. Es werden dabei Endgeschwindigkeiten von mehr als 100 m/s erreicht. Andererseits werden auch immer stärkere Abmessungen gewalzt, bis zu Drahtdurchmessern von über ca. 25 mm.Modern wire rolling mills work at ever increasing top speeds, especially when rolling wire with a small diameter. The final speeds are more than 100 m / s reached. On the other hand, increasingly larger dimensions rolled, up to wire diameters of over approx. 25 mm.
Diese sehr unterschiedlichen Walzparameter bringen Probleme bei der Ablage der Drahtschlingen des fertig gewalzten Drahtes auf den Förderer mit sich.These very different rolling parameters cause problems with the Storage of the wire loops of the finished rolled wire on the Conveyor with himself.
Nach dem Stand der Technik ist der Schlingenleger meist mit einem Winkel von etwa 10° zur Horizontalen fest angeordnet und die, diesem vorgeordnete Treibeinrichtung entweder in der Horizontalen oder ebenfalls unter dem gleichen oder einem kleineren Winkel angeordnet. According to the state of the art, the sling layer is usually with one Angle of about 10 ° to the horizontal and the, this upstream driver either in the horizontal or also arranged at the same or a smaller angle.
Um eine einwandfreie Ablage der Schlingen von Drähten mit kleinem Durchmesser unter sehr hohen Geschwindigkeiten einerseits und von großen Drahtdurchmessern mit geringeren Geschwindigkeiten andererseits zu erzielen, wurde bereits ein Schlingenleger vorgeschlagen, dessen Neigung zur Horizontalen veränderbar war. Für hohe Drahtgeschwindigkeiten beträgt der Neigungswinkel dabei z.B. 10° und für niedrige Geschwindigkeiten bis zu 30°. Diese Lösung brachte jedoch die folgenden, erheblichen Nachteile mit sich: Die unterschiedlichen Neigungen bedingen entsprechend veränderte Abstände zu den horizontalen Führungsebenen, d.h. es müssen jeweils entsprechend angepaßte unterschiedliche Umlenkführungen eingesetzt werden. Weiter sind schwenkbare Tragkonstruktionen für die Treibeinrichtung und den Schlingenleger notwendig. Diese Tragkonstruktionen sind nicht nur technisch aufwendig, sondern auch bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten anfällig gegen Schwingungen.To ensure a perfect placement of the loops of wires with small Diameter at very high speeds on the one hand and of large wire diameters with lower speeds on the other hand a sling layer has already been proposed, whose inclination to the horizontal was changeable. For high wire speeds the angle of inclination is e.g. 10 ° and for low speeds up to 30 °. However, this solution brought the following significant disadvantages: The different Inclinations cause the distances to the horizontal to change accordingly Management levels, i.e. it must be adjusted accordingly different deflection guides can be used. Are further swiveling support structures for the driving device and the Loop layer necessary. These support structures are not only technically complex, but also at high speeds susceptible to vibrations.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Vorrichtungen so zu verbessern, daß unter Vermeidung sowohl der schwenkbaren Tragkonstruktionen und der verschiedenen Umlenkführungen, als auch der Schwingungsanfälligkeit der Tragkonstruktionen, die einwandfreie Ablage der Schlingen von Drahtstärken mit kleinen und auch großen Durchmessern ermöglicht wird.The invention has for its object these devices to improve that while avoiding both the pivoting support structures and the different deflection guides, as well as the Susceptibility to vibrations of the supporting structures, the flawless Storage of the loops of wire gauge with small and also large ones Diameters is made possible.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. This task will by a device with the features of Claim 1 solved.
Die Erfindung wird anhand des in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert.The invention is based on the embodiment shown in the drawing explained in more detail.
Die Zeichnung zeigt die Anordnung von Treibeinrichtung, Schlingenleger und Förderer in schematischer Darstellung.The drawing shows the arrangement of the drive device, sling layer and conveyor in a schematic representation.
Hinter dem Ausgang der nicht dargestellten Walzdrahtstraße, aus der
der Drahtstrang ST in Richtung des eingezeichneten Pfeiles austritt,
ist die Treibeinrichtung TE mit den Treibrollen 1 und 2 angeordnet.
Die gemeinsame Achsebene x-x liegt dabei in einem Winkel α zur
Vertikalen. Hinter der Treibeinrichtung TE ist der Schlingenleger
SL angeordnet. Die Rotationsachse y-y des Legerohres 3 verläuft
dabei in einem Winkel β zur Horizontalen, während der Legearm 3a
des Legerohres 3 in einem Winkel δ zur Rotationsebene z-z des
Legearms liegt. Der Förderer, hier ein Rollgang 4, ist um die
Schwenkachse 5, die sich mit einem Abstand d unterhalb des, dem
Schlingenaufnahmeende 4a abgewandten Endes 4b des Rollgangs 4
befindet, in einer vertikalen Ebene zwischen einer oberen Hoch-Position
H, die in vollen Linien angedeutet ist und einer Tief-Position
T, die in unterbrochenen Linien angedeutet ist, schwenkbar.Behind the exit of the wire rod mill, not shown, from the
the wire strand ST emerges in the direction of the arrow shown,
the drive device TE with the
Die Treibrollen 1, 2 drehen vor Einlauf des Anfangs des Drahtstranges
mit etwas höheren Drehzahlen als die der erwarteten Geschwindigkeit
des Drahtes entsprechende, und ihr Öffnungsspalt ist geringfügig
größer bemessen als der Drahtdurchmesser. Die Treibrollen 1,
2 werden, wenn der Anfang des Drahtes diese passiert hat und durch
die nicht dargestellte Führung hinter den Treibrollen 1, 2 nach
unten gelenkt wurde, geschlossen. Die geneigte Anordnung der gemeinsamen
Achsebene der Treibrollen 1, 2 bewirkt neben dem Treib- auch
einen Biegeeffekt auf den Draht. Dieser Biegeeffekt ist bei Draht
mit großem Durchmesser größer, weil der Hebelarm, mit dem die
Treibrollen 1, 2 auf den in einer waagerechten Ebene einlaufenden
Draht wirken, größer ist, d.h. das Biegemoment vergrößert sich mit
steigendem Drahtdurchmesser. Dies erleichtert die Umlenkung des
Drahtes und vermindert die dabei entstehenden Reibungsverluste.
Neben der beschriebenen Umlenkarbeit müssen die Treibrollen 1, 2
auch die Enden von Drähten mit großem Durchmesser, nachdem diese
die Drahtstraße verlassen haben, antreiben und zur Kompensation der
Arbeit im Legerohr 3 beschleunigen. Dies wird durch die geneigte
Anordnung der Treibrollen 1, 2 unterstützt.The
Die Schlingen werden zunächst im Legearm 3a des Legerohres 3 gebildet,
der auch den Durchmesser der Schlinge bestimmt. Der Austritt
der Schlingen in einem Winkel β zur Rotationsebene bewirkt eine
Bewegung der austretenden Schlingen in Richtung der Rotationsachse
y-y des Legearms 3a, die bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten des Drahtes
bis zu 5 m/s erreicht. Diese Geschwindigkeiten werden bei Drähten
mit kleinem Durchmesser erreicht. Diese weisen im walzwarmen Zustand
eine geringe Stabilität auf. Um trotz dieser geringen Stabilität
eine einwandfreie Ablage der Schlingen auf dem Rollgang 4 zu erreichen,
wird dieser in die mit T bezeichnete Tief-Position abgesenkt.
In dieser bremst der Rollgang 4 die aufgelegten Schlingen nur in
einem geringen Maße ab, weshalb es nicht zur Verformung des Drahtes
kommt.The loops are first formed in the
Beim Legen der Schlingen von Drähten mit größerem Durchmesser ist
deren Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit in Richtung der Rotationsachse y-y
des Legearms 3a gering. Die Schlingen weisen wegen des größeren
Drahtdurchmessers eine höhere Steifigkeit auf. Der Rollgang 4 wird
deshalb in diesem Fall in die Hoch-Position H geschwenkt. Damit
werden die Schlingen, unmittelbar nachdem sie den Legearm 3a verlassen
haben, erheblich stärker abgebremst und damit das rechtzeitige
Auflegen auf dem Rollgang 4 gewährleistet.When laying the loops of wires with larger diameter is
their speed of movement in the direction of the axis of rotation y-y
of the
Die Lage der Schwenkachse 5 des Rollgangs 4 ist so gewählt, daß beim
Heben bzw. Senken die Position der ersten Rollgangsrolle 4a stets
im günstigsten Abstand vom Legearm 3a bzw. dessen festen Führungsring
