Description

Method and device for reeling thin metal strip, in particular hot or cold rolled thin steel strip

The invention relates to several methods and several devices for reeling thin metal strip, in particular hot or cold rolled thin steel strip, on a reel mandrel that is adjusted in diameter, with the coil inner windings being wound to the set reel mandrel diameter at the beginning and after after winding the coil, the coiler mandrel is pulled out or the coil is pulled off.

Hot rolled thin steel strip of high quality has recently been produced in large quantities and is approaching the quantities and thicknesses of cold rolled steel strip. This is due to great advances in the rolling technology of hot-rolled flat strip. It is currently economical to produce very thin warm flat products (Ultra Thin Gauges) of less than 2 mm in increasing quantities.

After the rolling mills are able to produce such thin hot flat products, the subsequent machines, e.g. the roller table, the belt cooling, the reel, the coil transport u. Like. meet the new requirements.

A problem during and after winding thin steel strips is that the inner coils of the coil loosen and collapse. Later winding of the coil onto a reel mandrel of the unwinder or a further processing machine is not possible or only possible with additional effort. The inner coil windings must be cut out of the coil eye by hand. This manual work reduces the productivity of the system. It is known (US Pat. No. 5,705,782) to insert a spot welding machine, which is arranged on a holding device with a guide, into the coil eye and to set the welding spots on the coil inner winding by means of electrodes.

The problem of the inner winding collapsing begins with the decrease in the strip thickness. Parameters also exert an influence, e.g. Material properties, reel temperature and bandwidth. The metal strip no longer has sufficient inherent rigidity and, due to its own weight, falls into the coil opening (coil eye) and thus reduces the coil inside diameter. The problem arises immediately after the coil has been wound up and pulled off the reel mandrel and is further exacerbated by further transport until several inner turns are released. When cold rolling and winding thin steel strip, the aforementioned spot welding method or tacking by welding or by winding on a tube is used.

The invention has for its object to prevent loosening of individual turns in the coil eye by stiffening turns.

The object is achieved according to the invention by a first method in that one or more profile elevations or profile depressions are pressed into one or more adjacent inner turns on the circumference during the circulation.

As a result, the first two turns are stiffened in such a way that the end of the tape can support itself again and individual turns cannot come loose. It is sufficient to profile just a little more than one inner turn. Under no circumstances is it necessary to profile more than 2-3 turns.

Advantageously, the profile elevations or profile depressions are pressed in via the profile-provided, driven mandrel. Furthermore, the profiles can be pressed in while the metal strip is being wound.

Another embodiment provides that after the first winding is wound on the coiler mandrel, there is a re-spreading and the profiles are pressed into the inner windings with a force dependent on the strip and material. As a result, neither the previous operational process nor the design of the reel mandrel are significantly changed.

The method can advantageously be applied to strip thicknesses of the order of 0.4 to 1.8 mm.

The associated device for reeling thin metal strip, in particular hot or cold-rolled thin steel strip, with a drivable reel mandrel that can be adjusted in diameter by means of expandable segments and that can be adjusted to a winding inner diameter and to a diameter for loosening the finished coil task according to the invention in that the segments are provided with segment-shaped profile beads. These profile beads are pressed into the metal band by the reel dome lead or a re-spreading process, form grooves in them, which similarly lead to stiffening of the grooved inner turns. The profile beads are designed in accordance with the necessary plastic metal strip deformation and do not need to form a hindrance when the coil is pulled off the coiler mandrel. This means that no additional machine is required, but only another function is transferred to the coiler mandrel. When the grooves are pressed in, the strip edges are not damaged by welding or binding. Existing systems can easily be retrofitted. Only low investment costs are required. No changes need to be made in downstream systems. In an embodiment of this device, it is provided that the segment-shaped profile beads are interchangeable and can be adjusted in width and height to the metal strip.

According to a further advantage, the width and the height of the profile beads can be determined depending on the strip thickness and the material properties.

The object is achieved according to the invention by a second method in that the inner turns of the coil are mechanically supported over the circumference during or immediately after the coil is pulled off the coiler mandrel in the coil eye. This also prevents the inner turns from collapsing.

The inner turns are held in contact with the other middle turns by supporting the inner turns by radially spreading support elements from the central axis.

According to one embodiment, it is provided that the inner windings are supported overlapping when the coil is pulled off the coiler mandrel.

Further advantages result from the fact that the support elements are held in their support position during the coil transport and the cooling phase up to the unwinding of the coil.

The associated device for reeling thin metal strip, in particular hot or cold-rolled steel strip, with a drivable reel mandrel that is adjustable in diameter by means of expandable segments and adjustable to a winding inside diameter and to a diameter for loosening the finished coil the stated object according to the invention in that a spreading adapter which can be inserted into the free coil eye is provided is attached to a holder with a guide. After the coil has been wound up, the mandrel support bearing opens, the coil carriage transports the coil out of the reel and pushes it into a waiting position via the device with an expansion adapter. The device with the expansion adapter now turns the loose turns back in the opposite winding direction until the turns rest against each other again. For this purpose, the expansion adapter expands during the turning process. The expansion adapter then presses against the inner turns without damaging them and the holder and the expansion adapter are separated. The expansion adapter remains in the coil and is only removed later in a subsequent station. The collapse of the inner turns is thus avoided. The turning back and fixing can also take place during the transport process of the coil from the coiler mandrel, which saves time.

According to one embodiment, it is advantageous for the necessary movements that the expansion adapter is provided with connections for media, energy and control means.

A further development provides that the expansion adapter is rotatably mounted in the holder. The expansion adapter can be fixed in the coil eye as described above without triggering the loosening of the loose inner turns. The device with the expansion adapter can thus be designed either with or without a rotating device.

According to a further method of handling, the expansion adapter can be removed in a subsequent station for treating the coil.

Further features of the expansion device result from the fact that the expansion adapter has a plurality of supporting elements distributed over the circumference. A simple mechanism can also be provided to separate or lock the expansion adapter from the holder. Other features of the expansion adapter are that the expansion adapter can be mechanically locked in the coil eye in the operating position.

Another advantage is that the expansion adapter can be manufactured in series and can be assigned to any coil. The expansion adapter can be removed from the coil in the downstream station. The removal can be done manually or mechanically. The expansion adapter is then returned for reuse. The expansion adapter is designed as a simple, light and manageable version, so that series production is economical for loading a large number of coils. Even with the system with an expansion adapter, the belt edges are not damaged by welding. Retrofitting in existing systems is possible.

A variant also shows that the reel mandrel which can be driven in rotation serves as the holder for the expansion adapter.

The object is achieved according to the invention according to a third method, in that at least the first inner turn is connected to the second inner turn by inserting adhesive, filler, metal pieces, adhesive or the like in an angular space between the inner turns. This creates a hold between the first and second inner turns, which also stiffen the inner turns.

In an embodiment of such a connection or joining system, it is provided that the adhesive is sprayed into the angular space between the first and the second inner winding.

Another variant consists in that a wire-shaped body is inserted into the angular space between the first and the second inner wall as a filler to form a positive connection. A third variant results from the fact that individual metal bodies are entered into the angular space between the first and the second inner winding to form the positive connection.

Finally, a fourth variant is created by applying an adhesive in the angular space between the first and the second inner turn.

The associated device for reeling thin metal strip, in particular hot or cold-rolled thin steel strip, with a drivable reel mandrel which can be adjusted in diameter by means of expandable segments and which can be set to a winding inside diameter and a diameter for loosening the finished coil, solves this The object of the invention is that a sprinkling device or a spraying or injection device is provided, each of which is connected to a storage container for adhesives, fillers, metal bodies, adhesives or the like. There is therefore no need for complex machines, but only a simple device for supplying substances or bodies in order to achieve the desired effect. When applying adhesive or adhesive, only a short time is required to connect the two inner windings. Furthermore, the strip edges are not damaged by welding. The device can easily be retrofitted in existing systems. No changes are required at subsequent treatment stations. The connection created on processing machines also tears open automatically.

Advantages also result from the fact that the litter or the spraying or injection device can be actuated precisely in time via a computer-controlled control.

A further development is designed in such a way that a nozzle for the targeted entry of adhesive or adhesive is connected to the spraying or injection device. The object is achieved according to the invention by a fourth method in that, with a coil winding direction in the clockwise direction, the beginning of the band in an angular range within the 7-10 o'clock position and with the reverse coil winding direction, the beginning of the band in an angular region within the 2- Position at 5 o'clock in the coil eye and then pull the coil off the coiler mandrel. The weight force FQ of the strip end causes a pressure (normal force F _N ) of the strip end against the next inner turn, which prevents collapse, and the frictional force FR, which prevents the inner turn from loosening or sliding on the second inner turn.

It is advantageous that the strip end is also positioned in an angular range of less than 270 °.

A design step is given in that the position of the respective strip start is determined by integrating the peripheral speed of one of two drive rollers of the reel device or the mean value of the drive roller peripheral speed. As a result, only control engineering measures within the drive control and its programs are necessary, so that the effort is even lower.

Another embodiment provides that the position of the strip start is determined by integrating a speed signal between a roller device and the reel via a speed measuring device.

Another measure to determine the position of the strip end and / or the strip tip is created by comparing the surface speeds of the reel mandrel and the inner surface of the coil and, if there is a match within a predetermined error range, storing the position of the strip start on the reel mandrel and while further winding the position of the mandrel is tracked. The marked surface speed can be determined, for example, in such a way that the surface speed of the inner surface of the coil is determined from the speed signal used for the integration and a momentarily outer and momentarily inner diameter of the resulting coil.

Further auxiliary measures result from the fact that a position of the reel mandrel is determined by evaluating a fixed impulse from a speed sensor arranged on the reel mandrel or mandrel drive and by integrating the speed of the reel mandrel drive between two pulses.

A further measuring step for determining the end of the strip and the beginning of the strip is given by repeatedly comparing the peripheral speeds of the reel dome and the inner surface of the coil after saving the position of the reel and that the actual effective diameter of the reel drive rollers is determined if there are any deviations is corrected.

In the drawing, embodiments of the invention are shown, which are explained in more detail below.

1, thin metal strip 1, in particular thin steel strip, is wound on a roller table 2 in a reel station 3 onto a reel mandrel 3a, the metal strip 1 being shaped and wound up via a pair of driver rollers 4 and guides 5 and 6 by means of deflection shells 7. The deflection shells 7 and pressure rollers 8 can be adjusted in a controlled manner by means of positioning cylinders 9 which have position sensors 10.

At the end the coil 11 according to FIG. 2 is created. In the reel station 3, which e.g. a hot wide strip rolling mill is connected, the coil 11 is formed on the coiler mandrel 3a in such a way that the (warm) metal strip 1 entering at the rolling speed is wound around the coiler mandrel 3a via the pressure rollers 8 and the deflecting rollers 7, the metal strip 1 using is hydraulically guided around the positioning cylinder 9 and the position transmitter 10, so that a first inner turn 12 is formed with a band start 13. The diameter of the reel dome 3a can usually be adjusted via four movable segments 3b attached to the circumference of the reel mandrel 3a.

The reel mandrel has a maximum and a minimum diameter, which is preset with mechanical stops. The winding phase begins with an average diameter, that is, from this position of the segments 3b, spreading can take place for the purpose of quickly establishing the frictional connection between the coiler mandrel 3b and the metal strip 1, and secondly the coiler mandrel 3a can be despread to pull off the coil 11 from the coiler mandrel 3a. In the winding phase, the pressure rollers 8 and the reel mandrel 3a rotate at a higher speed (so-called advance) than the incoming metal strip 1. The first inner turn 12 is placed around the pre-spread reel mandrel 3a and begins to tighten on the reel mandrel 3a. The first inner turn 12 tends to drop below the inside diameter 14 of the coil eye 15 with the band start 13.

This idea is now to be eliminated. According to a first method, the procedure is as follows: the post-expansion phase begins and the segments 3b are pressed into the first inner turn 12 with a force dependent on the metal strip 1 and its material.

For this purpose (FIGS. 3 and 4), profile beads 16 are attached to the segments 3b of the coiler dome 3a, which form segment-like circumferential elevations. With the advance or the expansion process, the profile beads 16 with profile grooves 17 (FIG. 3) are pressed into the metal strip 1. Here, a profile channel 17 can impress into the second inner turn 18, as can be seen in the enlarged detail A of FIG. 3. As a result, the inner windings 12 and 18 are stiffer together and prevent the tendencies of collapse shown in FIG. 2.

The segment-shaped profile beads 17 can be designed to be interchangeable and vary in width and height, i.e. are each adapted to the metal band 1. In addition to the strip thickness, the material properties of the metal strip 1 are decisive for the adjustment.

According to a second method (FIG. 5), the inner windings 12, 18 are mechanically supported over the circumference during or immediately after the coil 11 has been removed from the coiler mandrel 3a in the coil eye 15. The inner windings 12 and 18 are supported by radial expansion of support elements 19 from the central axis. The inner windings 12 and 18 can be supported overlapping when the coil 11 is pulled off the coiler mandrels 3a. The support elements 19 can be held in their drawn support position during the coil transport and the cooling phase from (warm) metal strip 1 up to the unwinding of the coil 11.

The support elements 19 are part of an expansion adapter 20 which is inserted into the free coil eye 15 and is fastened to a holder (not shown in more detail) with a guide 21. The expansion adapter 20 is provided with connections 22 for media, energy and control means. The expansion adapter 20 can also be rotated, as indicated by arrows 23, and only needs to be removed in a subsequent station for treating the coil 11. The support elements 19 can be provided in one or more radial planes of the expansion adapter 20.

In the operating position 24 shown in FIG. 5, the expansion adapter 20 can be locked in the coil eye 15. The expansion adapter 20 is manufactured in series and allocated to each coil 11. The rotationally driven coiler mandrel 3a can also serve as a holder for the expansion adapter 20.

A third method (FIG. 6) consists in that at least the first inner turn 12 and the second inner turn 18 are flat by entering adhesive, filler, metal body and / or adhesive 25 or the like in an angular space 26 between the inner turns 12 and 18 is interconnected. The glue

25 is preferably sprayed into the angular space 26 between the first and second inner turns 12, 18. Analogously, a wire-shaped body can be introduced into the angular space 26 between the first inner turn 12 and the second inner turn 18 as a filler to form a positive connection. Analogously, individual metal bodies can enter the angular space

26 can be entered to form the positive connection. An adhesive can also be introduced into the angular space 26 between the inner turns 12 and 18. The above-mentioned process steps can be carried out using a sprinkling, spraying or injection device 27 with a storage container 28.

A fourth method (FIG. 7) provides that in the case of a coil winding direction in the clockwise direction, the beginning of the band 13 in an angular range within the 7-10 o'clock position and in the opposite direction of the coil winding, the beginning of the band 13 in an angular range within the 2-5 The clock position is positioned in the coil eye 15 and then the coil 11 is pulled off the coiler mandrel 3a. The band end 29 on the outer diameter 30 is also positioned in an angular range of less than 270 °.

The position of the respective band tip is determined via the drive rollers 8 or the mean value of the peripheral drive roller speeds, via a speed signal from a measuring device, via the surface speeds of the reel dome 3a and the inner coil area of the coil eye 15, from the coil outer diameter 30, one Speed encoder and correction values determined.

The weight force FQ (in the enlarged detail representation B) of the strip start 13, on the one hand, causes the strip start 13 to be pressed against the next winding (by the normal force FN) in order to prevent it from collapsing, and on the other hand the friction force F _R , which prevents the loosening or sliding of the first inner turn 12 on the second inner turn 18.

8 shows a corresponding signal flow plan for positioning the beginning of the tape 13. The metal strip 1 is driven by the driver lower roller motor 31 and the driver upper roller motor 32, and a coiler mandrel motor 33 drives the coiler mandrel 3a. The position of the strip start 13 is determined by storing and integrating a speed signal via a speed measuring device 34 between a rolling device and the reel station 3 in the speed n1. The surface speed of the inner surface of the coil 11 is determined from the speed signal used for the integration of a momentarily outer and momentarily inner passage. Knife of the resulting coil 11 determined. For this purpose, the degree of mandrel expansion is calculated via the speeds of the coil 11 and the coiler mandrel 3a (Vdom) and determined as a function of the coiler mandrel diameter do _o m. The degree of mandrel expansion n2 is measured from the strip start 13, a coiler mandrel position controller 35 and a coiler mandrel speed controller 36. The reel mandrel motor 33 is calculated from the reel mandrel position controller 35 and the reel mandrel speed controller 36 via a reel mandrel current controller 37.
