Abstract
A system for bundling long ferrous products comprises a roller table for delivering the products longitudinally to a receiving station. A cradle is spaced laterally from the receiving station and is constructed and arranged to receive and accumulate the products in bundle form. A stacker is positioned between the receiving station and the cradle, and a pre-stacker is positioned between the stacker and the receiving station. A transport system laterally advances products from the receiving station to the pre-stacker, and the pre-stacker operates in concert with the transport system to pre-stack multiple layers of the products into sub-bundles and to transfer the sub-bundles to the stacker, which then operates to deposit the sub-bundles in the cradle.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to the handling of long products produced by a rolling mill, and is concerned in particular with the bundling of such products.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- As herein employed, the term “long products” is intended to include squares, flats, angles, channels, beams, and any other like products that are typically formed into layered bundles.
- In the conventional bundling system, long products are delivered to a receiving station. A transport system then carries the products laterally to a stacker. In the course of being laterally carried, the products are subdivided into layers.
- The stacker operates to transfer the layers individually into a cradle, where the layers are stacked to form a bundle. The bundle is then tied or strapped.
- The stacker typically requires an average of about 12 seconds to transfer each layer into the cradle. This transfer cycle is substantially longer than the time it takes for the transport system to deliver successive product layers to the stacker. Thus, the stacker represents a bottleneck limiting the rate at which bundles can be formed by the bundling system.
- The objective of the present invention is to relieve this bottleneck and thus increase the overall production rate of the bundling system.
- In accordance with the present invention, a pre-stacker is positioned between the receiving station and the stacker. The pre-stacker is constructed and arranged to operate in concert with the transport system to pre-stack multiple product layers into sub-bundles. The sub-bundles are delivered to the stacker, which transfers the sub-bundles into the cradle. By delivering multiple product layers to the cradle during each transfer cycle, the stacker's efficiency is increased significantly, with a corresponding increase in the rate at which bundles are formed.
- The invention will now be described in greater detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
FIGS. 1A-1F are schematic illustrations depicting a bundling system in accordance with the present invention during the bundling of flats; -
FIGS. 2A-2I are similar views showing the bundling angles; and -
FIG. 3 is a graph comparing the efficiency of the bundling system of the present invention with that of a typical conventional system. - With reference initially to
FIG. 1A , a stacking system in accordance with the present invention comprises a roller table 10 for delivering long products longitudinally to areceiving station 12. Acradle 14 is spaced laterally from thereceiving station 12. The cradle is constructed and arranged in a known manner to receive and accumulate product layers in bundle form. - A
stacker 16 and an adjacent pre-stacker 18 are positioned between thecradle 14 and thereceiving station 12. Atransport system 20 operates to laterally advance products from thereceiving station 12 to the pre-stacker 18. - The
transport system 20 includes atransfer car 22 with an elevatorplatform having arms 24 vertically adjustable between the gaps of the rollers of the roller table 10. - As shown in
FIG. 1A , thearms 24 are beneath long products (in this case flats) on the roller table. InFIG. 1B , the arms have been elevated to raise the products off of the roller table. InFIG. 1C , the transfer car has been shifted laterally to position the raised arms between the chains of abuffer chain conveyor 26. InFIG. 1D , the arms have been lowered to deposit the products on the buffer chain conveyor. - The buffer chain conveyor is operable to move several layers of products to a
selector chain conveyor 28 on which separate product layers made up of pre-selected numbers of products are isolated from the remaining products by a set ofpivotal lifting plates 30 acting in concert withstops 32. The separate product layers are then carried by afeeding chain conveyor 34 to the pre-stacker 18. - The pre-stacker comprises a
base 36 that is both vertically adjustable along and rotatable about axis “Y”. The base is also rotatable about an axis “X” perpendicular to axis Y. - Upper and
lower fingers 38 a, 38 b are carried by thebase 36. The fingers are adjustable vertically, both with respect to each other as well as together. - The
stacker 16 comprisesarms 40 that are adjustable in a transfer cycle between a receiving position as shown inFIG. 1A and a delivery position as shown inFIG. 1F . - A pre-stacking cycle for flats begins as shown in
FIG. 1A , with a first layer of products being shifted byconveyor 34 to a position above the upper fingers 38 a. Next, as shown inFIG. 1B , thebase 36 is elevated to raise the fingers 38 a and the first product layer aboveconveyor 34, with the conveyor then operating to shift a second product layer to a position between the upper andlower fingers 38 a, 38 b. Then, as shown inFIG. 1C , the upper fingers 38 a are rotated through 90° about axis Y, resulting in the first product layer being deposited on the underlying second product layer to thereby form asub-bundle 42. - As shown in
FIG. 1D , thebase 36 is then lowered and thefingers 38 a, 38 b repositioned in readiness for the beginning of the next pre-stacking cycle. At the same time, thesub-bundle 42 is shifted onconveyor 34 to a position overlying the stackingarms 40. As shown inFIG. 1E , the stacking arms are then operated through a transfer cycle in which they are raised (arrow 44), advanced (arrow 46) and lowered (arrow 48) to a delivery position slightly above either the base ofcradle 14 or the top layer of a previously deposited sub-bundle (broken lines inFIG. 1E ). The stacker arms are then twisted through 90° about their axes before being retracted (arrow 50 inFIG. 1F ) to thereby strip off the layers of the sub-bundle 42 against the nearest vertical arm of the cradle, thus depositing the sub-bundle in the cradle. - The stacking arms are then returned to the receiving position in readiness to receive the next sub-bundle.
- It will be seen from
FIGS. 1E and 1F that the transfer cycle of thestacker 16 is overlapped by the pre-stacking cycle of the pre-stacker 18. In other words, while thestacker 16 is in the process of transferring one sub-bundle 42 into thecradle 14, the pre-stacker 18 is in the process of pre-stacking additional product layers into the next sub-bundle. - As each sub-bundle is deposited in the
cradle 14, the cradle is lowered incrementally (arrow 54 inFIG. 1F ) until a full bundle has been accumulated. The bundle is then tied or strapped by other known apparatus (not shown) and taken away. -
FIGS. 2A-2H illustrate the bundling of angles. The operation of thetransfer car 22 and other components of thetransport system 20 in essentially the same as described previously with respect to the bundling of flats. However, the operation of the pre-stacker 18 is somewhat different when handling angles. More particularly, as shown inFIG. 2A , a first layer of four angles is initially carried byconveyor 34 to a position overlying the pre-stacker's upper fingers 38 a and abutting thebase 36. InFIG. 2B , thebase 36 has been lowered to clear the way for further transfer of the first product layer to a holding position against astop 56. At the same time, a second product layer of three angles is advanced towards the pre-stacker. - In
FIG. 2C , thebase 36 has been returned to its upper position, and the second layer of angles has been received between thefingers 38 a, 38 b. - In
FIG. 2D , thelower fingers 38 b have been raised to elevate the second product layer off of theconveyor 34, resulting in the second product layer being gripped between thefingers 38 a, 38 b. As shown inFIG. 2E , thefingers 38 a, 38 b with the second product layer gripped therebetween, are rotated about axis X to the position shown inFIG. 2F , thus inverting the second product layer. - Next, as shown in
FIG. 2G , the upper fingers 38 a are rotated 90° about axis Y to deposit the inverted second product layer on the first product layer, thereby forming a sub-bundle 58 in which the inverted angles of the second layer are nested into the angles of the first layer. - As shown in
FIG. 2H , the upper andlower fingers 38 a, 38 b are then repositioned to their receiving positions, and thebase 36 is lowered. At the same time, thestop 56 is lowered and the sub-bundle 58 is shifted byconveyor 34 to a position overlying thestacker alms 40. - As shown in
FIG. 2I , the stacker then operates through its transfer cycle, as previously described, to deposit the sub-bundle in thecradle 14. While this is taking place, the pre-stacker is again in the process of forming the next sub-bundle, which will be ready for transfer to thestacker arms 40 when they are returned to their receiving position. - With reference to
FIG. 3 , and using as an example the formation of a bundle containing ten product layers, a conventional bundling system, which transfers one layer per cycle of the stacker, will require time t1 to complete the bundle. In contrast, a system in accordance with the present invention that pre-stacks two layers into sub-bundles, will complete the bundle in a significantly shorter time t2, i.e., in approximately one half the time required by the conventional system. - It will be seen therefore, that the present invention substantially increases the overall efficiency of the bundling system by taking much better advantage of the stacker's transfer cycle.
- It is also important to note that the bundling system of the present invention manipulates the stacked products without employing magnets. The system is thus capable of handling non-magnetic products, e.g., stainless steel bars and the like, and bundled magnetic products are not plagued with residual magnetization.
