Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical continuous casting equipment, and in particular relates to a casting billet lifting device and a lifting method. Background Art

[0002] The output of a steel plant determines the direct economic benefits of a steel plant. The most ideal production process is to convert the refined molten steel into ingots through continuous casting equipment and then transport them to the rolling mill to be rolled into the final product. However, most steel plants arrange steelmaking and steel rolling in two different workshops. Due to the different construction times of the two workshops and actual environmental factors, the elevations of the two workshops cannot be guaranteed to be exactly the same. In this case, in actual production projects, the ingots produced by continuous casting cannot be directly sent to the next process flow through the roller.

[0003] The ingots produced by continuous casting are piled up on site and then transported by overhead cranes. Some are even transported to the next workshop by vehicles. If there is a problem in any link during this period, a large amount of ingots will be piled up, and the previous steelmaking and continuous casting links will be forced to stop. At the same time, if the ingots are piled up for a long time and are not sent to the next process, the cooled ingots will have to be reheated for a long time, which greatly increases the risk of becoming scrap ingots. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a billet lifting device and a lifting method. When the foundation elevations of the continuous casting equipment and the steel rolling equipment are different and the difference is large, the billets produced by continuous casting can be directly lifted to the elevation of the roller table of the subsequent process equipment, and then transported to the subsequent equipment through the roller table, which reduces human participation, reduces labor costs, improves operating efficiency, and greatly improves the subsequent production rhythm, providing favorable conditions for reducing production costs.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is: a casting billet lifting device, including a base, a bracket is provided on the base, a winch is provided on the top of the bracket, guide rails are symmetrically provided inwardly on the two side frames of the bracket, a steel wire rope is wound on the winch, the end of the steel wire rope is connected to a movable pulley hanger, a movable roller is connected below the movable pulley hanger, and both ends of the movable roller are slidably connected to the guide rails.

[0006] A lifting lug is provided on the top of the movable roller table below the movable pulley sling, a pin is provided in the lifting lug, and the movable pulley sling is detachably connected to the movable roller table through the lifting lug.

[0007] Guide wheels are respectively arranged at both ends of the movable roller, and the guide wheels are in contact with the inner wall of the guide rail groove.

[0008] A plurality of anti-skid mechanisms are arranged on the top of the movable roller table between the movable pulley hangers. The anti-skid mechanisms include a fixed bracket. A push claw is arranged on the upper part of the fixed bracket. The push claw is movably connected to the fixed bracket. A push claw pin is arranged at the connection. The anti-skid mechanism is used to prevent the slab from sliding.

[0009] A heat insulation cover is arranged above the anti-slip mechanism.

[0010] The number of the anti-skid mechanisms is six, the number of the guide wheels is four, and the number of the lifting ears is four. The lifting ears are installed on the moving roller table by bolts.

[0011] A method for lifting a cast slab, using the above-mentioned device for lifting a cast slab, comprises the following steps: S1: The continuous casting slab is transported to the moving roller table through the incoming roller table; S2: The winch starts, the wire rope is pulled, and the movable pulley sling drives the movable roller to move upward along the guide rail until the movable roller is aligned with the subsequent roller. The winch is closed, and the subsequent roller conveys the ingot on the movable roller to the next process; S3: The winch starts, the wire rope is extended, and the movable pulley hoist drives the moving roller to move downward along the guide rail until it is aligned with the incoming billet roller, completing the billet lifting.

[0012] The technical effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. By setting a movable roller that can move up and down, when the foundation elevations of the continuous casting equipment and the steel rolling equipment are different and the difference is large, the ingot produced by continuous casting can be directly lifted to the elevation of the roller of the subsequent process equipment, and then transported to the subsequent equipment through the roller, thereby improving the subsequent production rhythm and reducing production costs. 2. The present invention can lift ingots with specifications of 6 to 10m and a maximum of 80t. The lifting height can reach a maximum of 5m. When it rises to a high position, it can ensure that the horizontal error between the movable roller and the subsequent roller is ±0.5mm, so as to ensure that the ingot can be smoothly transported to the subsequent process flow; 3. The present invention reduces human participation in the process of lifting ingots, reduces labor costs, and improves the operating rate.
