Description

  The present invention relates to a method for rolling a tapered steel plate having one or more tapered portions in the longitudinal direction of the steel plate.

  The shape of the thick steel plate is generally uniform in both the width direction and the longitudinal direction. However, when the plate thickness is continuously changed in the longitudinal direction, it may have a great effect in reducing the weight of the material and reducing the number of welding processes. Such a steel plate is called a tapered steel plate, a tapered plate, a tapered steel plate, or an LP steel plate (LP: Longitudinally Profiled) (hereinafter referred to as a tapered steel plate), and is a steel plate composed of one or more parallel portions and a tapered portion. Yes, it is applied to fields such as shipbuilding and architecture.

  Rolling of a tapered steel plate is manufactured by changing the roll gap in the plate and rolling in a plurality of passes in the vicinity of finish rolling in order to form a tapered shape after carrying out flat plate rolling to a predetermined plate thickness. The number of passes for taper rolling is determined from the difference between the maximum thickness and the minimum thickness of the taper steel sheet and the rolling conditions such as the rolling equipment capacity and crown ratio for the purpose of preventing deterioration of the rolling shape. The roll gap is continuously changed during rolling. As a result, the necessary thickness profile is provided.

  Regarding the plate thickness accuracy, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for improving the plate thickness accuracy by correcting and controlling the roll gap after the next pass, based on the entry side plate thickness deviation data according to the longitudinal direction position one pass before. Has been.

  As a method for measuring the longitudinal position with high accuracy, there are a method for increasing the prediction rate of the advanced rate prediction formula of the steel sheet and a method for correcting the longitudinal position by measuring the tip position of the steel sheet with a sensor. Is a method of measuring the longitudinal position of a steel sheet during rolling with high accuracy by correcting the advanced rate prediction formula using a plurality of tip detection devices and plate speed detection devices installed on the downstream side of the rolling mill. It is disclosed.

  When rolling the taper section of a tapered steel plate, the roll gap is automatically changed from the roll gap change start point to the change end point according to the pass schedule. Thickness is distorted, and an error occurs in the delivery side plate thickness. And this error will be piled up by multipass rolling, and plate thickness accuracy will deteriorate.

  Therefore, an object of this invention is to provide the rolling method of a taper steel plate with a small position gap of a roll gap start position.

  The gist of the present invention is as follows.

  [1] By reverse rolling of a plurality of passes, a thick part having a uniform thickness along the longitudinal direction of the steel sheet, a thin part having a uniform thickness and a thickness smaller than the thick part, and from the thick part to the thin part A taper steel sheet having a taper part with a continuously decreasing thickness, and a rolling load caused by a positional deviation of a roll gap change start point in the rolling longitudinal direction in the taper part rolling in the previous pass. Calculate the position shift length (ΔL) in the longitudinal direction of the steel plate at the roll gap change start point from the rise of the roll or the loss of rolling load, and the position shift to the estimated rolling length of the thick part or thin part in the next pass A method for rolling a tapered steel sheet, wherein the length (ΔL) is corrected.

  The present invention corrects the positional deviation length of the roll gap change starting point in the longitudinal direction of the steel plate in the next pass from the rolling load results of the previous pass, so that the accuracy of the steel plate longitudinal direction position of the roll gap change starting point can be improved and tapered. The plate thickness accuracy and flatness of the part can be improved.

It is an example showing the cross-sectional shape of a unidirectional taper steel plate with a parallel part. It is a figure explaining the correction method of parallel part length. It is a figure explaining the rolling load and rolling-up cylinder position in rolling from a thin part to a thick part. It is a figure explaining the rolling load and rolling-up cylinder position in rolling from a thick part to a thin part. It is a figure explaining the deviation ((sigma)) of the rolling performance length with correction | amendment (invention example) of a roll gap change start point, and correction | amendment (conventional example).

  FIG. 1 is an example showing a cross-sectional shape in the rolling direction of a tapered steel plate. The points A and D are points that become the rolling biting side end of the thin part or thick part or the rolling biting side short part. Points B and C are roll gap change start points or change end points. L1 is the length of the thin part in the rolling direction, L2 is the length of the tapered part in the rolling direction, and L3 is the length of the thick part in the rolling direction. t1 is the thickness of the thin part, and t2 is the thickness of the thick part.

  The length accuracy of the tapered steel plate is controlled by calculating the roll gap change point based on the advance rate prediction in the length direction, but there is a problem that an error occurs due to the problems of length measurement accuracy and advance rate accuracy.

  In addition, the roll gap change point of the tapered steel plate is calculated from the predicted length of each pass entry side of the pass schedule. However, since the estimated length on the entry side includes errors due to the actual weight of the slab and errors due to fluctuations in the plate thickness / plate width, there are cases in which the planned plate thickness cannot be formed due to deviation of the roll gap change point.

  More specifically with reference to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 (a) shows a state where the previous pass (i-1 pass) has been completed, and the actual length in the rolling direction of the thick part is longer than the predicted length (FIG. 2 (a)). (Hatched part). Hereinafter, the length of the thick part in the rolling direction is referred to as the thick part length. The thick part on the rolling biting end side in the previous pass becomes the biting end side in the next pass (i pass).

  FIG. 2 (b) shows the rolling of the next pass (i pass), and the actual length of the thick portion is longer than the predicted length on the pass schedule. The roll gap change start point is not the X0 point, but the X1 point, and the roll gap change start point becomes earlier, and therefore an unplanned excessive rolling load is applied.

  In rolling the taper part, the roll gap is automatically changed from the roll gap change start scheduled point to the change end scheduled point according to the pass schedule. Therefore, when the roll gap change start point deviates from X0 to X1, the taper part plate There are cases where a thickness error occurs and a rolling load exceeding the rolling equipment specifications occurs due to an excessive load.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the rolling load and the movement of the rolling cylinder when rolling from a thin part toward a thick part.

  An uplift cylinder is a hydraulic cylinder which is installed in the lower part of the housing of a hot rolling mill and changes a work roll opening degree by a signal from an AGC control panel.

Since the actual length of the thin section length (L ₁ ) is shorter than the predicted length on the pass schedule, when rolling is performed according to the pass schedule, the roll gap is set according to the thickness of the thin section. A sudden load increase due to the delay will occur. The roll gap change start point is shifted by ΔL from the schedule.

Therefore, in rolling the thin part in the next pass, it is necessary to correct the predicted length on the pass schedule by ΔL to prevent the positional deviation of the roll gap change start point. The rolling expected length (L0) of the thin part length (L ₁ ) is obtained from the following formula (1) by measuring the work roll rotational speed with a pulse generator (PLG) installed on the work roll.

L0 = π × D × θR × (1 + advance rate) (1)
However, L0: Rolling length predicted length, D: Work roll diameter, θR: Work roll rotation speed.

  Therefore, in the rolling of the thin part in the next pass, it is possible to prevent the positional deviation of the roll gap change starting point by rolling with L0 + ΔL as the predicted rolling length.

  By correcting the misalignment of the roll gap change start point that occurs due to the difference between the prediction of the rolling length and the actual results in the next pass, it is possible to increase the rolling length accuracy and suppress the occurrence of sudden load fluctuations during rolling. it can.

Similarly, FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the rolling load and the movement of the uplift cylinder when the tapered steel plate is rolled from the thick part to the thin part. Since the actual length of the thick part length (L ₃ ) is shorter than the expected length on the pass schedule, when rolling is performed according to the pass schedule, the roll gap is set by the thickness of the thick part, so the momentary load at point C This is an example in which the load is raised and the load is raised again toward the thin part. Even in this case, by correcting the positional deviation of the roll gap change start point caused by the difference between the predicted length of the rolling length and the actual length in the next pass (ΔL), the rolling length accuracy is increased and the rapid load during rolling is increased. Occurrence of omission can be suppressed.

  In addition, although this description demonstrated the taper steel plate which has a parallel part in the both ends of a taper part as shown in FIG. 1, the taper steel plate which does not have a parallel part in both ends only in a taper part in a product, or a parallel part only in one side Even in the case of a tapered steel plate, in the rolling process, the parallel part may be provided at both ends of the taper part and rolled, and the parallel part may be cut off at the stage of finishing the product. Non-tapered steel plates are also included.

  Examples of the present invention will be described.

  A tapered steel plate having the shape shown in FIG. 1 was manufactured and compared by both the conventional method and the method of the present invention.

  The dimensions of the taper steel plate tested were as follows: thin part (t1) 11-25 mm / thick part (t2) 13-30 mm × width (W) 2000-5000 mm × thin part length (L1) 1000-15000 mm / taper part length (L2) It is 500-2000 mm / thick part length (L3) 1000-15000 mm.

  The rolling result is shown in FIG. The accuracy (σ) of the rolling length is σ = 134.2 mm in the conventional example and σ = 111.6 mm in the invention example, and it can be seen that the rolling failure due to the displacement in the longitudinal direction of the steel sheet is reduced.
