DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0042] Referring to
[0043] It should be noted that the molten metal ladle can be understood as a container containing molten metal.
[0044] In other embodiments, the replacement system may not be provided with the waste material box 5. The replacement system for the metallurgical temperature measuring and sampling probe of the present invention is used to allow the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 to cooperate with the temperature measuring gun 100, so that the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 performs temperature measuring and sampling on the molten metal ladle, and after completion of temperature measuring and sampling, the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 is separated from the temperature measuring gun 100, so that the shearing machine 4 cuts the sampling segment 201 and the clamping segment 202 of the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200, and the cut sampling segment 201 is used for subsequent analysis. The temperature measuring gun 100, the shelf 3, the shearing machine 4, and the waste material box 5 are sequentially arranged in different directions within a rotation range of the six-axis manipulator 1, respectively, wherein the waste material box 5 is arranged close to the shearing machine 4.
[0045] It should be noted that the six-axis manipulator 1, the clamping tool 2, the shelf 3 and the shearing machine 4 are in a plane provided with a temperature measuring and sampling hole 7, and the molten metal ladle is located below the temperature measuring and sampling hole 7 (i.e., in a direction perpendicular to a paper surface), in other words, the molten metal ladle is not in the same plane as the above components. Both sides of the temperature measuring gun 100 are provided with sliding mechanisms (as shown in
[0046] Referring to
[0047] When the temperature measuring gun 100 is inserted into the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 for a certain depth, the temperature measuring gun 100 is electrically connected to the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200, and at this time, the temperature of molten metal can be measured by a thermocouple located on the sampling segment 201.
[0048] The clamping tool 2 includes a base 21, a clamping jaw 22 configured to clamp the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 and a positioning jaw 23 which are arranged in parallel at a front end of the base 21, and a detection device 24 located between the clamping jaw 22 and the positioning jaw 23, and a detection source of the detection device 24, a center line of a clamping space of the clamping jaw 22, and a center line of a positioning space of the positioning jaw 23 are located on the same axis.
[0049] It should be noted that the positioning jaw 23 does not clamp the head 101 of the temperature measuring gun 100, but limits the head 101 of the temperature measuring gun 100 in a positioning space, so that the temperature measuring gun 100 cannot move to a space outside the positioning space.
[0050] Further, with reference to
[0051] Preferably, with reference to
[0052] Preferably, with reference to
[0053] Preferably, a spacing between the adjacent trenches 2242 is 30 mm.
[0054] Preferably, with reference to
[0055] Preferably, with reference to
[0056] Preferably, the detection device 24 is a non-contact ranging sensor, preferably a laser sensor.
[0057] Referring to
[0062] Referring to
[0067] Preferably, after pulling out the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 from the temperature measuring gun 100 by the clamping jaw 22 under the drive of the six-axis manipulator 1 in the step 3), the left positioning finger 232 and the right positioning finger 233 of the positioning jaw 23 are closed again, and if the left positioning finger 232 and the right positioning finger 233 of the positioning jaw are completely closed, then it is further confirmed that the temperature measuring and sampling probe 200 has been completely pulled out from the temperature measuring gun 100.
[0068] Those of ordinary skill in the art should realize that the above embodiments are merely used for illustrating the present invention and not intended to limit the present invention. Variations and modifications made to the above embodiments are intended to fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention as long as they fall within the spirit of the present invention.
