Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for moving metallic material from or onto a conveying device in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction, wherein the device has a relatively movable to a stationary stand movement arm, in one end region of which at least one gripping element is arranged to grip the metallic Guts wherein the movement arm has at least two arm parts and wherein at least two of the arm parts are telescopically in the manner of a telescope.
  • the devices mentioned above are used, which can push the scrap in a horizontal direction transversely to the conveying direction of the roller table on Ablageroste.
  • These are, for example, Vorbandabschieber, with which scrap from the rolling line are disposed of by pushing can.
  • the duration of the production downtime can be reduced and thus the efficiency of the rolling process can be increased.
  • a generic device is from the DE 22 02 848 A known.
  • a device provided with a telescopic arm also shows the GB 966,055 A .
  • the SU 1766548 A1 discloses a push-off device, with the metallic Good can be moved transversely to the conveying direction of the roller table.
  • the estate is thereby moved with a movement arm, which is slidably mounted in a frame; on the movement arm finger-like gripping elements are arranged, which can contact the estate.
  • the device builds relatively large in the direction transverse to the conveying direction of the roller table, since the movement arm must be moved over a large width.
  • a relatively far projecting movement arm is provided, which is mounted displaceably in a housing transversely to the conveying direction of the roller table.
  • the JP 10263624 A suggests a device in which the finger-like gripping elements can be moved down vertically in position as needed. Again, the movement arm protrudes relatively far in the direction transverse to the conveying direction of the roller conveyor.
  • the DE-OS 26 00 784 describes the problem of the rapid removal of parts of the pre-strip from the roller conveyor, although details of constructive details of the Vorbandabschiebers are not made.
  • the device is suitable both for pushing away scrap material from the roller table and again for pushing the scrap metal on the roller table. Then namely at a later time the scrap can be transported away on the roller table, which has significant economic benefits.
  • the invention is therefore the object of a device of the type mentioned in such a way that the mentioned disadvantages are overcome.
  • the Abschiebevoriquesen should therefore have a much lower space requirement, without the functionality of the device is adversely affected.
  • both a deportation of the scrap material from the roller table as well as, if necessary, a postponement of the goods on the roller table should be possible.
  • the solution of this object by the invention is characterized by two gripping elements, one of which is arranged on the innermost, telescopically insertable arm part and one on the arm part, which receives the innermost telescopically insertable arm part directly.
  • the movement arm on three arm parts which are telescoped in the manner of a telescope.
  • a development provides that the arm parts have a rectangular cross-section basic contour. This achieves high stability, in particular against torsion about the longitudinal axis of the arm.
  • At least one of the gripping elements can be rotatably mounted about an axis-The axis is preferably oriented horizontally and points in the conveying direction of the Guts.
  • the gripping element arranged on the innermost telescopically insertable arm part is rotatably mounted about said axis; Furthermore, according to this embodiment of the invention arranged on the innermost telescopically insertable arm part directly receiving arm part gripping element is fixedly disposed on this arm part. Furthermore, it can be provided in this solution that arranged on the innermost telescopically insertable arm part gripping element is arranged and pivotable that the innermost telescopically insertable arm part together with gripping element largely, preferably completely, in which the innermost telescopically insertable arm part directly receiving arm can be inserted.
  • the device part which is provided for the return of the scrap material from the storage rack on the roller table, in the event that it is not needed, is completely retracted into the arm and so does not constitute an obstacle.
  • Another advantage is a hydraulic piston-cylinder system for displacement of the innermost, telescopically insertable Armteil provided relative to the innermost telescopically insertable arm part directly receiving arm.
  • a conveyor device 3 in the form of a roller conveyor not shown metallic material can be conveyed in the conveying direction F. If there is a fault in the rolling mill and cools preheated rolling stock, which is conveyed via the conveyor 3 to a roller unit, not shown, too strong as a result of the disturbance, it must be disposed of as scrap. In order to remove the scrap material, so that the production process can be resumed after the fault has been eliminated, a storage rack 12 is arranged laterally next to the conveyor device 3.
  • the device 1 has a stationary stand 4, which is arranged laterally next to the roller table 3.
  • a movement arm 5 is slidably arranged in the direction S.
  • a gripping element 7 is arranged in the form of a finger-shaped slide.
  • metallic Good 2 are pushed off the roller table 3 on the shelf 12.
  • the movement arm 5 is moved relative to the stand 4 by means not shown drive elements to the right. After moving the arm 5, this has the in Fig. 2 partial dot-dash line position.
  • the movement arm 5 is designed in several parts.
  • it has two arm parts 5 ', 5 ", which can be pushed into one another in the manner of a telescope Fig. 2 2, the two arm parts 5 ', 5 "are shown pushed together in a telescoped manner (it can be seen that there is a relatively small footprint, in the present case through a wall 13) Nevertheless, a large displacement path of the product 2 in the direction S can be realized, as can be seen from the dot-dashed maximum end position of the movement arm 5 (on the right in FIG Fig. 2 ).
  • the arm part 5 'provided with the gripping element 7 is, with the estate 2 can be deported from the roller table 3 on the shelf 12.
  • another gripping element 8 is provided which is arranged at the end of the innermost arm part 5 " Fig. 3 referenced where the illustrated in maximum extension position movement arm 5 is outlined.
  • the gripping element 8 is rotatably mounted about an axis 9, wherein the axis 9 is arranged horizontally and has in the conveying direction F.
  • the gripping element 8 in the event that it is not needed, be pivoted in a horizontal position (with dotted lines is in Fig. 3 the pivoting of the gripping element 8 outlined in this position).
  • a movement arm 5 arranged in the piston-cylinder system 10 can then the innermost arm part 5 ", ie the innermost telescopic arm, are pulled into this directly receiving arm part 5 'until it is completely absorbed by this.
  • Fig. 1 It can be seen that several, in the present case two, devices 1 can be driven by a common drive device 11, ie the displacement movement of the movement arm 5 in the direction S is performed by the drive device 11.
  • the movement path of the movement arm 5 or its parts 5 ', 5 can be detected via linear or rotary position encoders (not shown) .
  • the movement arms 5 of the individual devices 1 can be coupled electrically, mechanically or hydraulically.
  • the device 1 is characterized in that in addition to the deportation of Good 2 from the roller table 3 on the shelf 12 also a pushing back of the grate 12 on the roller table 3 is possible.
  • the "retraction arm” 5 is integrated in the" Abschiebearm “5 'If the" retraction arm "5" is not needed, it can be completely submerged in the “Abschiebearm”5'.
  • the arm part 5 only extends when scrap material 2 is to be withdrawn from the storage rack 12 onto the roller table 3.
  • the finger-like gripping element 8 can be pivoted into the horizontal position (for sinking the arm part 5 "into the arm part 5 ') by means of an actuator (not shown) on the roller table 3 can be provided that this is done by the weight of the gripping element 8, which takes place automatically when the arm 5 "by means of the piston-cylinder system 10 sufficiently from the arm 5 'is pushed out.
  • the guide of the arm part 5 can be made by moving rollers, which are arranged on or in the arm part 5 '. Guiding by round rods and sliding bushes or sliding strips is just as possible.
  • the scrap belt 2 is withdrawn in a rolling break or a planned furnace gap from the deposit rack 12 on the roller table 3 and fed via the roller table 3 of the scrap processing (in another part of the hall).
  • the manual intervention in the danger zone of the roller table 3 is no longer necessary.
  • the rolling time can be optimized by means of the device 1, which has an increase in production of the rolling mill result.
