Abstract

Disclosed are an automatic shearing apparatus for a cold-rolled plate of variable thickness, and a shearing method using the apparatus. The method comprises that: a thickness gauge ( 4 ) and a length-measuring device ( 3 ) are successively arranged in front of shears ( 5 ); and a control device identifies the profile of a strip material passing through the thickness gauge ( 4 ) according to length tracing data and measured thickness values, and determines the position of the strip material at the shears ( 5 ), simultaneously compares the profile with the set profile of a plate of continuously variable thickness, and decides the action time of the shears. The apparatus and the method can efficiently and accurately shear rolls of supplied materials of continuously variable thickness into plates of continuously variable thickness which can be directly used by a user.

First claim

1 . An automatic shearing apparatus for a cold-rolled plate of variable thickness, characterized by comprising: a control device, and a straightening device, a length-measuring device, a thickness gauge and shears arranged successively, wherein the length-measuring device, the thickness gauge and shears are controlled by the control device, and a strip material passes through the straightening device, is then successively subjected to a length measurement in the length-measuring device and a thickness measurement in the thickness gauge, and is then sheared by the shears.

2 . The automatic shearing apparatus for a cold-rolled plate of variable thickness of claim 1 , characterized by further comprising a mark detector, which is arranged between the length-measuring device and the thickness gauge and is controlled by the control device.

3 . A method for automatic shearing using the automatic shearing apparatus for a cold-rolled plate of variable thickness of claim 1 , characterized by comprising the steps:
the thickness gauge is arranged in front of the shears, and the length-measuring device is arranged in front of the thickness gauge; the control device identifies the profile of a strip material passing through the thickness gauge according to length tracing data and measured thickness values, and determines the position of the strip material at the shears, and simultaneously compares the profile with the set profile of a plate of continuously variable thickness, and decides the action time of the shears; and at the same time, the control device also determines whether the sheared plate is qualified, and determines whether the plate is stacked into a finished product stack or waste stack.

4 . A method for automatic shearing using the automatic shearing apparatus for a cold-rolled plate of variable thickness of claim 2 , characterized by comprising the steps:
the thickness gauge is arranged in front of the shears, and the length-measuring device is arranged in front of the thickness gauge, and a mark identification device is arranged behind the length-measuring device; a control system determines a shearing position according to a strip steel mark identified by the mark identification device, identifies the profile of a strip material passing through the thickness gauge according to length tracing data and measured thickness values, and determines the position of the strip material at the shears, and simultaneously compares the profile with the set profile of a plate of continuously variable thickness, and determines whether the strip steel meets dimensional accuracy, and decides the action time of the shears; and at the same time, the control device also determines whether the sheared plate is stacked into the finished product stack or the waste stack.
