An angle steel receiving and counting apparatus is used for solving the problem of time and labor waste during angle steel number counting. The apparatus comprises counters, fixers, magnets, a pull rope and a rotary plate, wherein fluorescent seats are arranged at the tops of the counters and adopt plate-like structures made from fluorescent materials; number plates are arranged on the fluorescent seats; numbers are marked on the number plates; the fixers are arranged at the bottoms of the counters; the magnets are buried in the free ends of the fixers; rope threading holes are formed in the counters; rope threaders are arranged in the rope threading holes; the counters are threaded on the pull rope through the rope threaders in sequence; and the numbers on the counters are gradually increased or reduced seen from one end of the pull rope to the other end of the pull rope. When in use, the counters are adsorbed on metal fittings, and the counters with different serial numbers are adsorbed on each row of angle steel, so that the number of each row of angle steel can be conveniently counted and the situation of counting errors does not exist. After use, the pull rope is directly wound around the rotary plate, so that the storage is facilitated.
