Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for combining long materials, and more particularly to a plurality of long materials such as H-shaped steel and V-shaped steel having a brim-shaped protruding portion protruding from a central portion to both sides in the width direction. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a long material combining device that combines materials in parallel with each other such that the protrusions overlap each other.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, with regard to long materials (bar steels) such as H-shaped steel, V-shaped steel, and I-shaped steel, a rolling maker or a warehouse company combines a plurality of them into a so-called I-shaped combination. It is being shipped. This type I combination is a parallel combination in which the protruding portions of the long materials are overlapped with each other, whereby the total width when shipping a plurality of long materials It can be made much smaller than in the case where the protruding portions of the material are aligned with each other.

The above type I combination is generally performed by the following method. First, the long material A1 conveyed by the conveyor 91 is abutted against the stopper 94 and stopped, and the subsequent long materials A2 to A5 are sequentially abutted on the preceding long material and accumulated in parallel (FIG. 7a). Then, when the accumulation is completed, the conveyor 9
1 stop, lifters 92, 93, and pusher 9
5 is lifted and the even numbered long members A2 and A4 are lifted from the conveyor 91 by the lifters 92 and 93 (see FIG. 7b). In this state, the lifters 92, 93 and the pusher 95 are moved toward the elongated material A1 in the first row, and the predetermined projecting portions T of the elongated materials A1 to A5 are overlaid with a step. Wrap (see Figure 7c).
After that, the lifters 92 and 93 are lowered, and the elongated members A1 to A5 are again moved toward the elongated member A1 in the first row by the pusher 95, so that the protrusion T
Each long material A1 so that they completely overlap each other
~ A5 are combined. Then, the conveyor 91 is driven again to convey the long materials A1 to A5 to the next step.

[0004]

According to the above-described conventional technique for combining long members, the lifter positioned upstream of the lateral movement amount of the lifter 92 positioned downstream in the moving direction of the long members. Since it is necessary to increase the lateral movement amount of 93, it is necessary to configure the lateral movement mechanism for each of the lifters 92, 93. Further, since the lateral movement amount of the pusher 95 is larger than the lateral movement amount of the lifter 93, a mechanism for laterally moving the pusher 95 alone is necessary. Further, since the pusher 95 needs to be lowered later than the lifters 92 and 93, a mechanism for raising and lowering the pusher 95 alone is also necessary. Therefore, there is a problem that the structure of the device becomes complicated.

Further, since it is necessary to stop the conveyor 91 while the long materials are being combined, it is not possible to carry out the work of accumulating the long materials, so that the time required for one cycle of the combination process is very large. There was a problem that it took a long time and work efficiency was poor. Therefore, for example, when the above-mentioned combination work is performed continuously on the strip steel rolling line, it is necessary to configure a plurality of combination lines, which increases the equipment cost by that amount and is necessary for monitoring each line. There was a problem that the number of people who needed to be increased.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for combining long members, which can simplify the structure. Another object of the present invention is to provide a device for combining long materials, which can reduce the time per cycle required for combining long materials.

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a device for combining long members according to claim 1, wherein a plurality of long members each having a brim-shaped protruding portion protruding to both sides in the width direction are provided. In a long material combining device that combines in parallel each protruding portion in a state of being overlapped, a conveyor that conveys a plurality of long materials to a stacking zone and stacks them in parallel with the protruding portions abutting each other After lifting a plurality of long materials accumulated in the accumulation zone, they are moved obliquely downward toward the combination zone adjacent to the accumulation zone, and the long materials are transferred from the oblique upper direction to the combination zone. Among the long materials to be transferred to the combination zone at the ascending position, ascending / descending through between the transfer means and the odd-numbered long materials of the long materials transferred to the combination zone. Long rows of even rows are higher than long rows of odd rows The comb-shaped first receiving member which receives the stepped member with a step so that the downstream side in the transfer direction becomes higher, and the odd numbered long members of the long members transferred to the combination zone. In the state where the first receiving member is received and raised, the predetermined amount is moved from the combination zone toward the stacking zone, and the stacking zone side of the odd numbered long materials transferred to the combination zone. From the combination zone to the stacking zone with the first receiving member lowered, after moving the long materials excluding the first row of the long materials toward the first row of the long materials. And move a certain amount further,
A second receiving member that moves all the long materials except the first row long materials toward the first row long materials to combine the long materials, and the first row long member. When moving only the odd-numbered long members excluding the timber toward the first-length long members by the second receiving member, the odd-numbered long members are It is characterized in that it is provided with a stopper for controlling the movement amount of each of the odd-numbered long materials for each row so as to move to a position where it overlaps with the protruding portion of the long material.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a long material combination apparatus according to the first aspect, wherein the stacking zone and the combination zone are arranged along an intermediate portion of the conveyor. The mounting means comprises means for transferring the long materials in the accumulation zone to the combination zone, and at the same time, for transferring the long materials, which have been completely combined, from the combination zone to the downstream side in the conveying direction of the conveyor. Is.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a long material combination apparatus according to the first or second aspect, wherein the transfer means arranges the long materials accumulated in the accumulation zone in a parallel posture. It is a rotary traverser that lifts and moves along a circular orbit while maintaining the above. The long material combination device according to claim 4 is the device according to claim 1.
In the long material combination device according to,
It is characterized in that the comb tooth portion of the first receiving member is also used.

[0010]

According to the apparatus for combining long materials according to claim 1,
A conveyor conveys multiple long materials to the stacking zone, the parallel projections of the long materials are abutted against each other, and the stacked long materials are lifted by the transfer means. After that, the long material can be moved diagonally downward toward the combination zone adjacent to the stacking zone, and the long material can be transferred from the diagonal upper direction to the combination zone.

At the time of the above-mentioned transfer, the even-numbered long members of the long-sized members can be received at a position higher than the odd-numbered long members by the comb-shaped first receiving member. . Here, since the transfer means transfers each long material obliquely from above to the combination zone, one protruding portion of the long material of the even-numbered row having a high height is located on the upstream side in the transfer direction. Will have a step and overlap with one of the protrusions of the odd numbered long material. Moreover, by the first receiving member,
Since the long material on the downstream side in the transfer direction of the long material in the number sequence can be received at a higher position than the long material in the upstream number sequence, the above-mentioned overflow of the long material on the upstream side can be received. The wrap amount can be made larger than the overlap amount of the downstream long material.

On the other hand, the odd numbered long members of the long members transferred to the combination zone can be received by the second receiving member, and in this receiving state, the second member is received.
By moving the receiving member of the predetermined amount from the combination zone toward the stacking zone, the long members except the first long member from the stacking zone side among the long members in the odd rows are removed from the first row. It can be moved towards a long piece of eye. At this time, the stopper controls the amount of movement of the long material in the odd rows for each row so that the other protruding portion of the long material in the odd row becomes the other protruding portion of the long material in the even row. Can be appropriately overlapped. When moving the odd-numbered long material, the amount of movement of the long material on the downstream side in the transfer direction becomes larger than the amount of movement of the long material on the upstream side in the transfer direction. Since the overlap amount of is larger than that of the latter, there is no possibility that the overlapped state will be released with the movement of the long material in the odd rows.

Then, with the first receiving member lowered, all the long members except for the first row long members are again moved by the second receiving member by the second receiving member. By moving the long members to, the long members can be combined in parallel with each other with their protruding portions overlapping. According to the long material combination device of the second aspect, the long material in the accumulation zone is transferred to the combination zone by the transfer means, and at the same time, the long material that has been combined is conveyed from the combination zone to the conveyor. It can be transferred downstream in the direction. Therefore, it is possible to convey the long material, which has been combined, to the next process by one continuous conveyor.

According to the long material combination apparatus of the third aspect, since the transfer means is a rotary traverser,
A plurality of long materials accumulated in the accumulation zone can be moved along a circular trajectory while maintaining a parallel posture. Therefore, the long material can be easily transferred to the combination zone from diagonally above. Further, it is possible to easily transfer the long material, which has been combined, to the downstream side in the transport direction of the conveyor, at the same time when the long material in the accumulation zone is transferred to the combination zone.

According to the long material combination apparatus of the fourth aspect, since the stopper is also used as the comb tooth portion of the receiving member, it is not necessary to separately provide the stopper.

At the same time, the long material A in the combination zone Y is lifted while maintaining the parallel posture, moved along the circular trajectory B2 in that posture, and transferred onto the conveyor on the downstream side of the combination zone Y. be able to. If necessary, the long material A transferred to the conveyor 1 can be transferred further downstream of the conveyor 1 in the same manner as above. A plurality of the rotary traversers 2 are arranged between the rows of the conveyor 1 so as to lift the long material A at a plurality of locations along the longitudinal direction.

On the downstream side of the stacking zone X in the transport direction,
A stopper 6 for stopping the long material A conveyed to the stacking zone X is provided. This stopper 6
1 shows the long material A regardless of the width dimension of the long material A.
In the above, it is possible to adjust the movement along the conveyance direction of the conveyor 1 so that the sheets are always stacked in the state of being moved to the left side. The movement adjustment of the stopper 6 can be performed by adjusting the rotation angle of the rotation arm 61a forming the link mechanism 61 connected to the stopper 6 by a motor (not shown).

A plurality of slide skids 4 are provided in the combination zone Y in parallel with the conveyor 1.
The slide skid 4 receives the odd-numbered rows of long material A1, A3, A5 transferred to the combination zone Y in a state of being levitated from the conveyor 1. The slide skid 4 uses a slide driving mechanism (not shown) to receive the receiving position. After moving a predetermined amount D1 (see FIG. 3) from the
It is possible to further move a predetermined amount D2 (see FIG. 5) toward the stacking zone X at a predetermined timing. The slide skid 4 returns to the position for receiving the long material A when the second stage movement is completed.

On the upstream side of the slide skid 4 in the conveying direction, there is provided a stopper S for restricting the movement of the first row of long material A1 received by the slide skid 4 toward the stacking zone X. It is provided separately from the slide skid 4. The comb tooth member 3 is driven up and down by an elevating mechanism 33, and is provided at a plurality of positions in parallel with the rotary traverser 2 and the slide skid 4 along the longitudinal direction of the long material A. On the upper part of the comb tooth member 3, the first comb tooth portion 31 and the second comb which individually receive the long length materials A2 and A4 of the long length material A transferred to the combination zone Y are individually received. The tooth portion 32 and the tooth portion 32 project upward. These comb tooth portions 31 and 32 receive the even-numbered long members A2 and A4 at a position higher than the odd-numbered long members A1, A3, and A5, and further, the second comb tooth portions. 32 has a predetermined height ΔH higher than the height H of the first comb tooth portion 31 so as to receive the long material A4 in the fourth row at a position higher than the long material A2 in the second row. (See Figure 2). The width W1 of the first comb tooth portion 31 is set to be larger than the width W2 of the second comb tooth portion 32. This is because when the slide skid 4 is moved toward the stacking zone X by a predetermined amount D1, the long material A3 in the third row is
Is abutted against the first comb tooth portion 31 and stopped at a predetermined position, and the long material A5 in the fifth row is abutted against the second comb tooth portion 32 and stopped at a predetermined position. That is,
The comb tooth portions 31 and 32 are formed of the long length members A3 and A5 in odd rows.
It also serves as a stopper when the is moved in the accumulation zone X direction.

As the comb-tooth member 3 is raised, the comb-tooth portions 31 and 32 are elongated members A1, A3 and A5 in odd rows.
It is possible to receive the long length members A2 and A4 in the even-numbered rows at the rising end position by inserting the long members A2 and A4. Further, in the lowered state, the slide skid 4 can be retracted below. The comb tooth member 3 can be replaced according to the shape and size of the long material A.

The operation of the long material combination device having the above-described configuration is as follows. First, in a state in which the conveyance of the long material A is stopped by the separation lever 5,
When the long material A is allowed to be conveyed below the conveyor 1 and is allowed to be conveyed, the long material A is conveyed to the accumulation zone X by the conveyor 1 and abutted against the stopper 6. And
The subsequent long material A is sequentially abutted against the preceding long material A, and a predetermined number of the long materials A are accumulated in parallel with their protruding portions T1 and T2 abutting each other. In this state, the rotary traverser 2 is driven to simultaneously lift up the long materials A conveyed to the stacking zone X, and then they are moved obliquely downward toward the combination zone Y and moved to the combination zone Y. List. At this time, the comb-tooth member 3 is lifted in advance and put in standby. Then, odd-numbered long material A1, A
3 and A5 are received by the slide skid 4, and even-numbered long members A2 and A4 are comb-tooth members 3
Received (see FIG. 2). Here, each long material A is combined zone Y by the rotary traverser 2.
Is transferred diagonally from above and the second long material A2
For, since it is received at a position higher than the long material A1 in the first row, the protrusion T1 on the left side in FIG. 2 of the long material A2 in the second row is located on the right side of the long material A1 in the first row. In the state where there is a step with the protruding portion T2, it is in a state of overlapping by a predetermined amount M1. Further, the left side protruding portion T1 of the fourth row long material A4 overlaps the right side protrusion T2 of the third row long material A3 by a predetermined amount M2 while having a step. It becomes a state. Further, since the long material A4 in the fourth row is received at a position higher by ΔH than the long material A2 in the second row, the overlap amount M2 of the long material A4 in the fourth row is It becomes larger than the overlap amount M1 of the long material A2.

In this state, the slide skid 4 is moved in the direction of the stacking zone X by a predetermined amount D1. Then 1
Since the long material A1 in the row is restricted from moving in the accumulation zone X direction by the stopper S, the long material A1 in the row is held at the position where the long material A1 slips on the slide skid 4 and is received. Long material A in the third row of A
Only the long material A5 in the third and fifth rows is moved in the direction of the long material A1 in the first row (see FIG. 3). For the long material 3 in the third row, the first comb tooth portion 3 of the comb tooth member 3 is used.
When it hits 1, the slide skid 4 is slipped and its movement is stopped. In this state, the right side protruding portion T2 of the second long material A2 and the third long material A3
The protrusion T1 on the left side of is overlapped by a predetermined amount N1 with a step. Also, the long material A in the fifth row
Regarding No. 5, when it hits the second comb tooth portion 32 of the comb tooth member, it slips on the slide skid 4 and its movement is stopped, and in this state, on the right side of the long member A4 in the fourth row. The protrusion T2 and the protrusion T on the left side of the long material A5 in the fifth row
1 and N are overlapped with each other by a predetermined amount N2 while having a step.

The amount of overlap M2 between the long material A3 in the third row and the long material A4 in the fourth row when the long material in the accumulation zone X is transferred to the combination zone Y is determined by sliding. It is set so as to be larger than the movement amount of the long material A3 in the third row moved by the skid 4, and the length of the third material in the third row is moved in a state where the long material A3 in the third row is moved. Scale material A3
The right-side protruding portion T2 and the left-side protruding portion T1 of the fourth-row long material A4 are maintained in an overlapped state by a predetermined amount M3.

Next, the comb-tooth member 3 is lowered by the elevating mechanism 33, and is made to stand by below the conveyor 1. As a result, the long members A2, A4 in the even rows also descend, but the protrusions T1, T2 thereof overlap the protrusions T1, T2 of the long members A1, A3, A5 in the odd rows. The long materials A2 and A4 in the even rows are the long materials A1, A3 and O3 in the odd rows.
The A5 supports the slide skid 4 while levitating it (see FIG. 4). Therefore, in this state, the slide skid 4 is further moved in the accumulation zone X direction by a predetermined amount D2, whereby the long materials A1 to A5 are
The protrusions T1 and T2 can be combined in parallel with each other in a completely overlapped state (see FIG. 5).

Then, the rotary traverser 2 is driven to transfer the long material A, which has been completely combined, from the combination zone Y to the downstream side of the conveyor 1 in the conveying direction (see FIG. 1). The long material transferred onto the conveyor 1 is further conveyed by the conveyor 1 and conveyed to a stacker or the like. According to the long material combination device having the above-described configuration, the long materials A transferred to the combination zone Y are combined while being floated from the conveyor 1, so that it is not necessary to stop the driving of the conveyor 1. . Therefore, the long material A can be accumulated in the accumulation zone X in parallel with the combination work. Therefore, after the combination cycle of the long material A is completed,
The time required for one cycle can be significantly shortened as compared with the conventional device for starting the accumulation of the long material A.

Further, since it is not necessary to construct a mechanism for laterally moving the odd-numbered long materials A3, A5 and moving up and down the odd-numbered long materials A2, A4 for each row. ,
The structure of the device can be simplified. Furthermore, since the long material A that has been combined is transferred to the conveyor 1 again by the rotary traverser 2, the long material A that has been completely combined by one continuous conveyor 1 is transferred to the next step. Can be transported to. Therefore, less equipment is required than in the case where a conveyor for transporting the long material A to the next step is separately configured.

Moreover, since the rotary traverser 2 is adopted as the transfer means, the long material A accumulated in the accumulation zone X can be easily transferred onto the combination zone Y from obliquely above. To transfer the long material A accumulated in the accumulating zone X to the combination zone Y, and at the same time, easily transfer the long material A which has been combined from the combination zone Y onto the conveyor 1. You can

When the elongated members A3 and A5 are moved toward the elongated member A1 in the first row, the elongated members A3 and A5 are moved to the first comb tooth portion 31 and the second comb tooth portion 32 of the comb tooth member 3, respectively. Since the amount of movement of the long members A3, A5 is controlled by abutting, there is no need to separately configure a stopper for controlling the amount of movement, and the structure of the device can be further simplified. The separating lever 5 is configured as necessary in consideration of the conveyor speed of the conveyor 1, the conveyor pitch A of the long material A, and the like.

Further, long materials A other than the above H-shaped steels such as V-shaped steels, I-shaped steels, and shaped steels can be combined in the same manner as described above. Particularly, for V-shaped steels, as shown in FIG. Further, it is possible to carry out multi-stage combination by repeating the operation of hoisting by the electromagnet 7 in the state of being transferred from the combination zone Y onto the conveyor 1 and being transferred to the adjacent stacking traverser 8.

[0033]

As described above, according to the long material combination apparatus of the first aspect, the long materials are accumulated in the accumulation zone in parallel with the work of combining the long materials in the combination zone. Therefore, the time per cycle required for combining long materials can be significantly shortened compared to the conventional case. Further, since it is not necessary to configure a mechanism for laterally moving or elevating the long material for each row, the structure of the device can be simplified. Therefore, it is possible to provide a long material combining device capable of efficiently performing a combining operation with a simple structure.

According to the long material combination apparatus of the second aspect, since the long materials that have been combined are transferred to the conveyor again, the combination is completed by one continuous conveyor. The long material can be conveyed to the next step. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately configure a conveyor for transporting the long material that has been combined to the next step,
Equipment costs are low.

According to the long material combination device of the third aspect, since the rotary traverser is used as the transfer means, the long materials accumulated in the accumulation zone are slanted with respect to the combination zone. Transfer from above, or transfer long materials accumulated in the stacking zone to the combination zone, and at the same time transfer again the long materials that have been combined from the combination zone onto the conveyor. Can be performed easily and efficiently with a simple structure.

According to the long material combining apparatus of the fourth aspect, among the long materials of the odd-numbered rows transferred to the combination zone, the long material excluding the long material in the first row is Since the amount of movement when moving toward the long member in the first row is controlled by the comb-teeth portion of the receiving member, it is not necessary to separately configure a stopper for controlling this amount of movement, The structure can be further simplified.
