[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  The present invention relates to a roller guide in rolling equipment.ofThe present invention relates to a rotation failure monitoring apparatus and method.
[0002]
[Prior art]
  Known rotation detection of the roller guide is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-108907.
  In this conventional apparatus, a detection piece provided on a roller is detected by a rotation detection sensor, and an electric signal corresponding to the number of rotations is extracted to determine whether rotation is defective.
[0003]
  The rotation failure is determined to be defective when the number of rotations of the roller detected by the rotation detection sensor falls below a predetermined value. In addition, a signal generator during passing is provided to detect only during passing.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
  Conventionally, it is not possible to determine whether or not there is a rotation failure only by the detected number of rotations of the roller. That is, it can be determined only by comparing the rotation speed with a predetermined value (reference rotation speed).
  However, the passing speed of the material passing through the roller may be changed. In this case, the reference rotational speed must also be changed, which is complicated. Also, if the material is not passing, rotation failure can not be made even if the rotation speed of the roller is reduced. Therefore, a material passing signal generator for monitoring the material passing becomes essential, and the device becomes complicated. To do.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
  In order to solve such a problem, technical means employed in the present invention are as follows.
  That is, the present invention provides a plurality of rotations in contact with the workpiece.Upper roller guide and lower roller guide,Or a plurality of rotary drives to feed the workpieceUpper roller guide and lower roller guideIn processing equipment equipped withRoller guideIn the rotation failure monitoring apparatus, the plurality ofUpper roller guide and lower roller guideA rotation speed detection unit for detecting the rotation speed of each,Upper roller guide and lower roller guideA rotation failure determination unit that determines a rotation failure of the rotation failure determination unit,Each of the upper roller guide and the lower roller guideIn a processing facility characterized in that a rotation failure is determined when the difference in rotation speed exceeds a predetermined range.Roller guideThis is a rotation failure monitoring device.
[0006]
  In the present invention, a plurality ofUpper roller guide and lower roller guideDetect the rotation speed of eachEach of the upper roller guide and the lower roller guideWhen the difference between the rotation speeds exceeds a predetermined range, it is determined that the rotation is defective. Therefore, it is not necessary to compare the detected rotation speed with the reference speed.
  That is, there isUpper roller guide and lower roller guideIf the number of rotations decreases or stops, otherUpper roller guide and lower roller guideWhen a predetermined difference occurs compared to the number of rotations, it can be determined that the rotation is defective. Therefore, a reference rotation speed that changes depending on the speed of the workpiece is not required.
[0007]
  If there is no workpiece,Upper roller guide and lower roller guideDoes not rotate, so there is no difference in rotational speed. Therefore, the conventional material passing signal generator is not an indispensable structure, and the apparatus can be simplified.
  In the present invention,The upper roller guide and lower roller guideIn addition to what is rotated by the movement of the workpiece, it is rotationally driven to feed the workpiece.thingIncluding both. Also, the detection of the rotation speed is the detection of the number of rotations,Roller guideThis is a concept including the detection of the angular velocity.
[0008]
  In addition, the plurality ofUpper roller guide and lower roller guideAre preferably arranged in pairs so as to face each other across the workpiece..
  MaIn addition, the rotation speed detectorUpper roller guide and lower roller guideIt is possible to detect a signal that changes with time depending on the rotation angle of the signal and analyze the frequency of the signal to obtain the frequency component of the signal. In this case, the rotation failure determination unit preferably determines rotation failure when the difference between the main component frequency components of the frequency components obtained by frequency analysis exceeds a predetermined range.
[0009]
  With just the above judgment method, multipleUpper roller guide and lower roller guideWhen all of the rotation stops, rotation failure cannot be detected reliably. Therefore, in the present invention, in order to compensate for this, the rotation failure determination unit determines rotation failure even when the level of the main component frequency is lower than normal.
  The inventorUpper roller guide and lower roller guideIt was found that the main component frequency is lower than that in the normal state when the operation stops. The above means utilizes this, and the determination unit monitors all the main component frequency levels and determines that it is defective.Upper roller guide and lower roller guideEven when is stopped, it can be reliably determined to be defective. That is, eachUpper roller guide and lower roller guideIn combination with the determination based on the comparison of the rotational speeds, the rotation failure determination can be performed more reliably.
[0010]
  In addition, it is preferable that the workpiece is a steel bar, and the processing equipment is a finishing block mill or a sizing mill subsequent thereto.
  In addition, the monitoring method according to the present invention includes a plurality of rotating methods in contact with the workpiece.Upper roller guide and lower roller guideOr a plurality of rotary drives to feed the workpieceUpper roller guide and lower roller guideIn processing equipment equipped withRoller guideIn the rotation failure monitoring method, the plurality ofUpper roller guide and lower roller guideRotation speed of each is detected and eachUpper roller guide and lower roller guideWhen the difference in rotational speed exceeds a predetermined range, it is determined that the rotation is defective.

This roller guide 14 includes a roller 101 having a caliber for guiding a material to be rolled formed on the outer peripheral surface, a collar 102 is formed at the center of the inner peripheral surface of the roller 101, and ball bearings 104 on both sides thereof. Can be accommodated.
  The roller shaft 107 of the roller 101 has a bolt shape, a shoulder 112 for receiving the ball bearing 104 is formed on the head 110 side, and a screw for screwing the nut 108 is formed on the tip. Further, a supply hole 111 for lubricating oil (oil air) to the ball bearing 104 is formed in the shaft center portion from the head 110 side to the shaft center portion, and the supply hole is formed in the shaft center portion in the radial direction.111aCommunicated with.
[0016]
  The roller 101 is supported by a roller support body 105, and the support body 105 has roller shaft support members 106, 106 formed at one end in a fork with a larger interval than the thickness of the roller 101, and this roller shaft support member 106. 106, a hole 109a for attaching the roller shaft 107 is formed, and one roller shaft support member 106 has a hole 109 for non-rotatingly accommodating the head 110 of the roller shaft 7 from the outer surface side. The other roller shaft 106 is formed with a hole 9b for rotatably accommodating the nut 108 from the outer surface side.
[0017]
  A spacer ring 116 is provided between the roller 101 and the roller shaft 107. The spacer ring 116 is slightly thinner (about 0.5 mm) than the thickness of the collar 102 at the center of the inner peripheral surface of the roller 101. In addition, a donut plate-shaped small-diameter spacer ring 117 having an inner diameter slightly larger (approximately several mm) than the outer diameter of the roller shaft 107, and an inner diameter slightly larger (approximately 0.5 mm) than the outer diameter of the small-diameter spacer ring 117; A large-diameter spacer ring 118 having a thickness substantially the same as the thickness of the collar 102 at the center of the inner peripheral surface of the roller 101 is formed, and a through-hole 119 is formed in the center of the small-diameter spacer ring 117 in the radial direction. On the other hand, a groove 120 is formed in the inner periphery of the large-diameter spacer ring 118.
[0018]
  The guide roller having the above structure is assembled by the following procedure.
(1)The large-diameter spacer ring 118 is non-rotatably fitted to the inner periphery of the collar 102 of the roller 101, and the ball shaft 104 is inserted from both sides of the roller 101 so that the small-diameter spacer ring 117 is sandwiched between the inner rings of the ball bearings 104.
(2):the above(1)Is inserted between the roller shaft support members 106, 106 of the roller support body 105, and the roller shaft 107 is inserted from the side surface of the roller shaft support member 106 on the hole 109 side. In the process, a bearing pressing ring 113 is inserted between the inner ring of the ball bearing 104 opposite to the insertion direction and the roller shaft support member 106.
(3): After the roller shaft 107 is inserted, the roller shaft 107 is inserted into the hole 109b of the roller shaft support member 106, the spring washer 114 is inserted, and the nut 108 is tightened. As a result, the small-diameter spacer ring 117 is fastened between the inner rings of the two ball bearings 104 and is non-rotatably attached to the roller shaft 107, and the space 21 communicating with the supply shaft 111 a and the through-hole 119 between the roller shaft 107. Is formed.
(4)Next, a conduit 122 for supplying oil air is connected to the supply hole 111 of the head 10 of the roller shaft 107, and a pressure detecting device 123 is connected to the middle of the conduit 122. Oil-air pipes 122 are provided in the respective roller guides 14, and pressure detectors 123 are provided in the respective pipes 122. The pressure detection device 123 is provided outside the housings 13 and 16 to avoid the influence of heat. Further, the pressure detection device 123 is provided in the vicinity of the housings 13 and 16 to prevent delay of pressure detection.
[0019]
  In the roller guide 14 configured as described above, the oil air supplied through the conduit 122 is supplied to the ball bearing 104 through the supply holes 111 and 111a, the space 121, and the through hole 119. In this supply process, when the roller 101 rotates, the large-diameter spacer ring 118 rotates with the rotation, whereby the groove 120 formed in the large-diameter spacer ring 118 opens and closes the through hole 119 formed in the small-diameter spacer ring 117. To do. The pressure detection device 123 detects a change in pressure at the time of opening and closing. Further, since the pressure detection device 123 is provided corresponding to the plurality of roller guides 14, it is possible to detect pressure fluctuations caused by the rotation of the respective roller guides 14.
[0020]
  Oil-air pressure fluctuations occur four times per rotation of the roller guide 14. FIG. 5 shows a signal waveform of the pressure fluctuation detected by the pressure detection device 123. When the groove 120 of the large diameter spacer ring 118 opens the through hole 119 formed in the small diameter spacer ring 117 as shown in FIG. 5A, the pressure in the pipe line 122 decreases. On the other hand, when the through hole 119 is closed as shown in FIG. 5B, the pressure in the pipe line 122 is increased. The pressure fluctuation signal changes depending on the rotation angle of the roller guide. That is, this signal has a frequency proportional to the number of rotations of the roller guide 14. In FIG. 5, two cycles of pressure fluctuation correspond to one rotation of the roller guide 14.
[0021]
  The pressure fluctuation signal output from the pressure detection device 123 is amplified by the amplifier 35 and given to the control device 37. The amplifier 35 is provided in a local device storage board 36 installed in the vicinity of the finishing block mill 7 or the like. The control device 37 is installed in the rolling operation room 10.
  As shown in FIG. 6, the pressure detection device 123, the amplifier 35, a high-pass filter 38 described later, and the like constitute an input unit of the monitoring device 11.
[0022]
  The control device 37 includes an A / D converter 39 for converting a pressure fluctuation signal, which is an analog signal, into a digital signal in addition to the high-pass filter 38, and a computer (general-purpose personal computer) connected to the A / D converter 39. 40. The computer 40 includes a display device as the display device 40a. Further, the computer 40 is communicably connected to a rolling line master control device 41 that is a rolling control device 41 that controls the rolling line, and can exchange information with the rolling control device 41.
[0023]
  The computer 40 also has a program that functions as a low-pass filter unit 43 that filters A / D converted data, an FFT conversion unit 44 that performs FFT conversion on the filtered data, and a rotation failure determination unit 45 that determines rotation failure. keeping. The low-pass filter unit 43 and the FFT conversion unit 44 constitute a signal processing unit together with the A / D converter 39.
[0024]
  Since the rotation speed (rotation speed) of the roller guide is detected by the functions from the pressure detection device 123 to the FFT conversion section, these functions constitute the rotation speed detection section 33 according to the present invention. become.
  FIG. 7 shows the flow of monitoring processing by the monitoring apparatus 11. First, when the apparatus 11 is started up, the system is initialized. Then, the state of the rolling line is determined. This line state determination includes metal-in determination and use stand determination.
[0025]
  The metal-in determination is a determination as to whether or not the material to be rolled is on the line, and the determination result is used to display whether the material is being monitored or is on standby on a monitoring status display screen described later. If there is no material to be rolled, monitoring is unnecessary and it is only necessary to stand by.
  The use stand is determined for monitoring the use stand and displaying it on the screen. The stand used is changed by changing the rolling size or product quality. For example, all the stands 22st, 24st, 26st, 28st, 30st are used for a certain type of rolling, while only some of the stands 22st, 24st, 30st may be used for other types of rolling. . Further, for other types of rolling, some other stands 22st, 24st, 28st may be used. Since the stand that is not used does not have the rolling roller or the roller guide 14, it is not necessary to monitor the roller guide 14.
[0026]
  The use stand information for each rolling method is held in the memory as a data table by the rolling control device 41, and the monitoring device 11 should take in the use stand information from the rolling control device 41 and monitor it. Recognize the stand.
  Therefore, even if the stand configuration is changed by changing the rolling size, only the use stand is automatically diagnosed.
[0027]
  When the monitoring of the roller guide 14 is started, the pressure fluctuation analog signal output from the pressure detection device 123 is filtered by the high-pass filter 38, supplied to the A / D converter, and converted into digital data. This digital data is stored in the memory of the computer 40. This digital data is filtered by the low-pass filter 43 and subjected to FFT analysis by the FFT conversion unit. The change speed of the pressure fluctuation is very fast (rotational speed of the roller guide: 20,000 to 30,000 rpm), so that it is difficult to handle the raw data as it is, but the handling becomes easy by FFT analysis.
[0028]
  A frequency component of pressure fluctuation is obtained by the FFT analysis, and roller rotation detection processing is performed based on the frequency component. By this processing, the main component (primary component) frequency of the pressure fluctuation is obtained. The principal component frequency is generally the highest level frequency, and can be obtained by creating a peak list and a harmonic list from the data after the FFT conversion. Further, when there is no main component, rotation is not monitored.
[0029]
  When this processing is performed, the pressure fluctuation data collected as shown in FIG. 8A can be obtained by the rotation of the roller guide 14 as shown in FIG. 8B.TheThe frequency of the oil-air pressure change (principal component frequency) is determined. This pressure change frequency indicates the rotation state of the roller guide 14, and if the rotation of the roller guide 14 decreases or stops, the frequency changes.
[0030]
  The rotation failure determination unit 45 performs rotation failure diagnosis based on the frequency component of the pressure fluctuation. The judgment for fault diagnosis is(1)Judgment based on the rotation speed difference of each roller guide,(2)This is performed by using the rotation stop determination based on the frequency distribution.
  (1)The rotational speed difference is determined by comparing the frequencies of signals detected by the pressure detectors 123 provided corresponding to the upper and lower roller guides 14a and 14b that are paired with the material to be rolled interposed therebetween.
[0031]
  This comparison is performed by calculating the difference between the principal component frequency obtained for the upper roller guide 14a and the principal component frequency obtained for the lower roller guide 14b. The difference is calculated when the larger one of the two principal component frequencies to be compared is the principal component frequency A and the smaller one is the principal component frequency B. Difference = (principal component frequency A−principal component frequency B) / Main component frequency × 100 (%).
[0032]
  For example, as shown in FIG. 9, when the main component frequency of the upper roller guide 14a is 300 Hz and the main frequency component of the lower roller guide 14b is 320 Hz, the difference is calculated as 6.25%.
  According to this determination method, when any of the rotation speeds of the roller guides 14 to be compared decreases or stops, it can be immediately determined that the rotation is abnormal. Further, as in the prior art, a reference value corresponding to the passing speed of the material to be rolled becomes unnecessary.
[0033]
  When the calculated difference exceeds a predetermined range, it is determined that there is a rotation difference between the upper roller guide 14a and the lower roller guide 14b and that rotation is defective. The predetermined range reference value for determining whether or not the difference is within the allowable range is set in advance in the rotation failure determination unit 45, but it is preferable that the setting can be changed manually for accuracy change. It should be noted that the setting can be changed for each roller guide or each stand.
[0034]
  (2)The rotation stop determination is performed based on the frequency component of the signal detected by the pressure detection device 123. Based on the frequency analysis results, the frequency components are arranged in order from the highest level, and the highest level (principal component) is compared with the Nth largest (low level component). When the ratio of the low-level component to exceeds a predetermined ratio set in advance, it is determined that the rotation of the roller guide 14 is stopped.
[0035]
  It has been empirically found that when the rotation of the roller guide 14 stops, the level of the main component decreases and the noise increases, and this is used to detect the rotation stop. . With this determination method, it is not necessary to compare the rotations of the plurality of roller guides 14, so that even when all the roller guides 14 are stopped, it is possible to reliably determine a rotation failure. Therefore,(1)By combining with this determination, rotation failure can be determined more reliably.
[0036]
  FIG. 10 shows a case where the upper roller guide 14a rotates normally and the lower roller guide 14b stops. In FIG. 10, the frequency components obtained by FFT conversion are arranged in order from the highest frequency level to the lowest. That is, the component with the highest level located on the left side in FIG. 10 is the principal component frequency, and is arranged so that the level decreases as it goes to the right side.
[0037]
  As shown in FIG. 10A, since the upper roller guide 14a is normally rotated, the main component is large and the difference from the Nth (14th in the figure) component is sufficiently large. The level ratio of the Nth frequency component to the main component is 6%. Thus, if the ratio is small, it is determined that the motor is rotating normally.
  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 10 (b), since the lower roller guide 14b is stopped or stopped, the level of the main component decreases, and conversely, the low level component increases due to noise, and the difference between the two is small. It has become. Here, the level ratio of the Nth frequency component to the main component is 25%. Since this level ratio is high, it is determined that the rotation is defective because the level of the main component has decreased. Note that the ratio (predetermined ratio) that serves as a reference for whether the rotation ratio is good or bad is set in advance in the rotation failure determination unit 45, but it is preferable that the setting can be changed manually for accuracy change. It should be noted that the setting can be changed for each roller guide or each stand. Further, it is preferable that the value of N can be manually changed.
[0038]
  The rotation failure determination result as described above is always displayed on the monitor display screen 50 of the display device 40a. This screen 50 is a monitoring stand state display unit 51 that displays a stand to be monitored (used stand), and a current monitoring state display unit that displays what state (standby or monitoring) the current monitoring function is in. 52, a monitoring setting item display unit 53 for displaying the value of a setting item for monitoring, a stand state display unit 54 for displaying a graph of the status of each stand being monitored, and the latest abnormality for displaying the latest abnormality information when an abnormality occurs An information display unit 55 is included.
[0039]
  The monitoring stand status display unit 51 displays the currently used stand 14 based on the use stand information. In FIG. 11, all the stands “22, 24, 26, 28, 30” are displayed, indicating that all the stands are used and are monitored. For example, if the use stand is changed to “22st, 24st, 30st”, “22, 24, 30” is displayed on the stand state display unit 51.
[0040]
  In the current monitoring state display section 52, the result of the metal-in determination is displayed. If there is no material to be rolled and monitoring is not necessary, “Standby” is displayed as shown in FIG. “Monitoring” is displayed.
  The stand status display unit 54 displays a graph of the status of each currently used stand based on the use stand information. In FIG. 11, since all the stands are used, the states of all the stands are displayed. The contents of the displayed graph are the main components of the upper roller guide 14a and the lower roller guide 14b.
[0041]
  If the rotation failure determination unit 45 determines that the rotation is defective, an abnormality process is performed. The abnormality processing includes abnormality alarm processing and abnormality data storage processing. In the abnormality alarm processing, the stand 14 in which an abnormality has occurred in the screen 50 is highlighted and a buzzer sounds to warn. Even after the abnormality occurs, the rotation failure determination process continues.
  In the abnormal data saving process, records such as the data after FFT conversion, the date and time of occurrence of the abnormality, and the stand number of the abnormality are stored in a storage unit such as a hard disk of the computer.
[0042]
  FIG. 12 specifically shows the state of data after FFT conversion when the upper and lower roller guides 14a and 14b rotate normally, and FIG. 13 shows when the lower roller guide 14b stops. In the case of FIG. 12, the main component frequency of the upper roller 14a is 180 Hz, and the main component frequency of the lower roller 14b is 183 Hz. Since the frequency difference between the two is small, it is judged normal.
[0043]
  On the other hand, in the case of FIG. 13, the main component frequency of the upper roller 14a is 180 Hz, and the main component frequency of the lower roller 14b is 361 Hz. It can also be seen that the main component frequency level is lowered and the reverse noise level is raised.
  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. In particular, the application of the present invention is not limited to rolling equipment, but can also be applied to other equipment having a rotating body.
