Definitions

  • Carriages movable in both forward and rearward directions parallel to said slot are positioned beneath the support surface, each carriage carrying a mandrel which is adjustable vertically through said slot from a lowered inoperative position beneath the support surface to a raised operative position extending axially through a coil on the support surface.
  • This invention relates generally to coil handling apparatus for a rolling mill and more particularly to an improved means for laterally transferring upstanding cylindrical coils from one location to the next, such as from a coil forming station to a compacting and tying station.
  • the rolled mill product is usually gathered into upstanding cylindrical coils at a coil forming station.
  • the coils which will vary in weight and size depending on the capacity of the mill and customer requirements, are then transferred to a second station where they are compacted and tied, the net result being an increase in coil density which improves the ability of the coils to withstand damage and deformation during subsequent transit.
  • this coil After formation, this coil must be removed from the coil forming station, inspected, trimmed, transferred to a laterally adjacent compacting and tying station, compacted, tied and finally delivered to an awaiting coil carrier, all in the time it takes to form the next coil.
  • speed is also of the essence.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide axial support for the coils during substantially the entire coil forming operation, the said axial support taking the form of a mandrel movable vertically from a lowered inoperative position beneath the support surface on which the coil is being formed to a raised operative position protruding thereabove.
  • the mandrel cooperates with the surrounding wall of the coil forming apparatus to produce an improved coil having a more uniform and stable structure.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide means for laterally displacing the raised mandrel following completion of the coil forming operation, thus enabling each completed coil to be rapidly displaced laterally by the mandrel without any danger of the coil deforming or toppling over.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide means for quickly positioning a fresh mandrel at the coil forming station, thus minimizing the period during which product rings are allowed to accumulate without axial support.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide means for clearing coils from the compacting and tying station, the said means operating in conjunction with the means employed to transfer coils between the coil'forming station and the compacting and tying station.
  • a still further object of the present invention is to provide one or more coil support mandrels movable laterally between the coil forming station and the compacting and tying station, each mandrel being retractable to an inoperative position beneath a generally horizontal coil supporting surface extending between both stations.
  • FIG. 1 is a vertical sectional view taken through one embodiment of a coil handling apparatus constructed in accordance with the present invention

  • Coil forming station A is comprised basically of a cylindrical housing 18 overlying one end of floor 14 and having an opening 20 in the housing wall at its lower end to permit lateral removal of a completed coil therefrom.
  • the mill product which has herein been shown as having been previously formed into a continuous series of rod rings 22, is dropped under the influence of gravity into housing 18 to accumulate in coil form as at a on floor 14.
  • a horizontally disposed gate 26 is advanced by conventional means (not shown) through a second opening 28 to an operative position extending across housing 18 and indicated in dotted line in FIG. 1 by the reference numeral 26a.
  • gate 26 By advancing gate 26, the lower portion of housing 18 containing the completed coil a is completely separated from the upper portion of the housing, thus enabling the next continuous series of rings 22 to accumulate temporarily on the upper surface of the gate.
  • gate 26 can be made to cooperate with an appropriately positioned shear to cut an intercepted rod ring and thus sever the completed coil (1 from a continuous supply of descending rings. This concept is disclosed in US. Patent No. 3,176,385.
  • each completed coil a is shifted laterally through opening 20 along floor 14 to a position indicated at c at the compacting and tying station C.
  • the coil is then compacted and tied prior to being laterally transferred to a position indicated at e on conveyor E. From here, each coil is transported to a remote storage area.

  • Mandrel 78 is movable vertically from a lowered position beneath floor 14 to a raised position protruding vertically thereabove (as shown in FIG. 1), this movement being accomplished by means of a double acting cylinder 84 carried by cross brace 74a.
  • Carriage assembly 70 is movable between stations B and C along guide rails 36 and 38 of support structure 30 by means of a horizontally disposed double acting cylinder 86 having an extensible piston rod 87 connected as at '88 to a stationary brace on support structure 30.
  • compacting and tying station C includes the combination of a platen assembly 90 which operates in conjunction with conventional strapping machines 92 and 94 to first compact and then tie free-standing coils previously formed at the coil forming station A.
  • Platen assembly 90 is comprised of two press plates 96a and 96b spaced to provide an opening 98 therebetween. Each press plate is connected to the extensible piston rod of a heavy duty hydraulic cylinder, there being two cylinders 100a and 10% provided, one to drive each press plate.

  • the vertically extending strap tracks 104a and 104b are connected at their upper ends by a fixed intermediate section 106 and at their lower ends by a pivotal section 107.
  • the strapping machines After being pivoted to the operative positions indicated in FIG. 4, the strapping machines are lowered until the vertical strap track sections 104a and 104b straddle the walls of coil 0. Grooves 108 in the side edges of mandrel 7 8 permit downward vertical displacement of strap tracks 10% along the inside of the coil walls.
  • the pivotal strap track sections 107 are swung inwardly through suitably shaped groves 109 in mandrel 78 to provide a connection between the lowermost ends of the vertical strap tracks 104a and 104b.

  • a second double acting cylinder 122 provides the means for moving the coil pulling mechanism 116 between the delay station D and a position underlying the coil conveyor E.
  • Stage I a stage in the operation of the coil handling apparatus is illustrated wherein a coil a has just been completely formed at coil forming station A and the gate 26 moved across the station.
  • the mandrel 56 of carriage assembly 40 is in the raised position protruding upwardly through the slot 62 in floor 14 into an axially inserted position through coil a.

  • Coil c has been engaged by the raised coil engaging member 112 which forms a part of the auxiliary pusher mechanism 110 carried by carriage assembly 70.
  • a fourth compacted and tied coil e has been pulled onto conveyor E by a coil pulling member 120, the latter then having been pivotally lowered beneath floor 14.
  • both coils a and b are in the free-standing state and are thus vulnerable to deformation if not carefully handled.
  • the axial insertion of mandrels 56 and 78 into these coils prevents this possibility by imparting stability to the coils.
  • Stage II The next step in the operation of the apparatus is shown in FIG. 6 wherein it can be seen that both carriage assemblies 40 and 70 have been moved simultaneously to the left, resulting in the positioning of coil a at delay station B and coil b at the compacting and tying station C. It is important to note that this lateral tranfer of the free-standing coils a and b is accomplished by the motion of mandrels 56 and 78, the latter providing an uninterrupted measure of coil stability.
  • Stage III wardly to compact coil b.
  • the auxiliary pusher mechanism 110 is lowered to an inoperative position and the coil engaging member 120 of coil pulling mechanism 116 advanced from station E to a point extending slightly beyond delay station D.
  • rod rings continue to temporarily accumulate as at f on the upper surface of gate 26.
  • Stage IV As shown in FIG. 8, the lowered mandrel 56 has now been returned to a position underlying coil forming station A as rings continue to temporarily accumulate on the upper surface of gate 26 as at f. Free-standing coil a remains stationary at delay station B. The platen assembly at station C remains lowered, maintaining coil b in a compacted condition as the strapping machines 92 and 94 run through a strapping cycle. The coil engaging member 120 of coil pulling assembly 116 has been raised through slot 62 in fioor 14 to engage coil c at delay station D.
  • Stage V At this point, mandrel 56 has been raised through slot 62 in floor 14 and the gate 26 withdrawn, thus allowing the rings temporarily accumulated thereon to fall to floor 14 for the continued accumulation of the next coil f. Simultaneously, at compacting and tying station C, the strapping machines 92 and 94 have been returned to their inoperative positions, platen assembly 90 raised and the mandrel 78 lowered through slot 62 beneath the surface of floor 14.
  • Stage VI rings 22 continue to accumulate in a coil 1 at the coil forming station A.
  • Mandrel 78 has been moved laterally to a position underlying and axially aligned with the coil a at delay station B.
  • This lateral movement of the carriage 70 carrying lmandrel 78 has also resulted in the auxiliary coil pusher mechanism being moved to a position underlying the compacted and tied coil 12 at station C.
  • coil 0 has been moved from delay station D onto the conveyor E, The next stage in the operation of the apparatus will return all components to the Stage I positions illustrated in FIG. 5.
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 an alternate embodiment of the invention is shown wherein means are provided for further decreasing the time during which rod rings 22 are allowed to accumulate at coil forming station A without the benefit of axial support from a raised mandrel. More particularly, two independent and opposite hand carriage assemblies 126a and 126b are mounted on support structure 30 for movement between coil fonming station A and delay station B. As will hereinafter become apparent, these carriage assemblies are positioned on opposite side of the centerline of the apparatus, thus permitting one carriage assembly to by-pass the other.
  • Carriage assembly 126a is comprised basically of spaced vertical support members 127 and 128 interconnected by cross braces 129, 130 and 131. Wheels 132 carried by cross braces 130 are incorporated in the above-described apparatus. More particularly, it is important to note that the lateral transfer of free-standing coils between stations A and C is always accompanied by axial sup-port for the coils provided by either mandrel 56 or 78. This in turn permits rapid lateral acceleration and deceleration of the coils without any resulting deformation or toppling. In addition, it should also be noted that mandrel 56 only travels a relatively short distance between station A and delay station B. With this arrangement, mandrel 56 can be returned quickly to station A, thus minimizing the time during which rod rings 22 are allowed to temporarily accumulate on gate 26 without the benefit of axial support.
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 an alternate embodiment of the invention is shown wherein means are provided for further decreasing the time during which rod rings 22 are allowed to accumulate at coil forming station A without the benefit of axial support from a raised mandrel. More particularly, two carriage assemblies 126a and 126b are mounted on support structure 30 for movement between coil forming station A and delay station B. As will hereinafter become apparent, these carriage assemblies are positioned on opposite sides of the centerline of the apparatus, hus permitting one carriage assembly to bypass the other.
  • Carriage assembly 126a is comprised basically of spaced vertical support members 127 and 128 interconnected by cross braces 129, 130, and 131. Wheels 132 carried by cross braces 130 and 131 ride on the upper and lower guide rails 36 and 38 of structural member 34a. Additional wheels 133 engage the edges of a third guide rail 134, thus providing a measure of stability for the carriage assembly by preventing tipping in a direction transverse to the length of support structure 30. Carriage assembly 126a is further provided with a mandrel 135 movable vertically under the influence of a double acting cylinder 136 mounted on lower cross brace 129.
  • Mandrel 135 is guided in its vertical movement by wheels 137 suitably positioned to run along vertical track-s 138 carried by support members 127 and 128.

More particularly, carriage assembly 12612 is carried on the upper and lower rails 36 and 38 of structural member 341) by means of wheels 32' carried on cross braces 130 and 131'. Additional wheels 133' grip the edges of a lower guide rail 134, and, a second double acting cylinder 139 provides a means of propelling carriage assembly 126b between stations A and B. Carriage assembly 126b is also provided with a mandrel 135 movable vertically under the influence of a double acting cylinder 136.
  • carriage assembly 1261 is positioned beneath coil forming station A with its mandrel 135' extending upwardly through the slot 62 in floor 14 to thus provide a means of axially supporting a coil being accumulated at g.
  • Carriage assembly 126a is located beneath delay station B with its mandrel 135 lowered to the inoperative position beneath floor 14.
