[0002] In steel production, vacuum refining plays a very important role in improving the quality of steel products, expanding varieties, reducing costs, and optimizing steel production processes. Directly sampling and measuring the temperature of smelted metals is an important means to understand the metallurgical process and molten iron quality.
[0003] At present, most steel enterprises use a single rapid thermocouple and molten iron sampler for temperature measurement and sampling respectively in steelmaking furnaces, using manual operation. Rapid thermocouples, also known as rapid temperature sensors, are widely used in the temperature measurement of molten steel, molten iron and other high-temperature molten metals in processes such as converters, electric furnace continuous casting, and secondary refining. For example, the patent CN208833374U discloses a molten steel continuous temperature measurement tube. The application includes a connector, a corundum tube and a black body tube. The lower end of the connector is provided with an external thread, and a receiving cavity is opened along the center of the lower end face, and a plurality of exhaust holes are opened on the wall of the receiving cavity; the upper end of the corundum tube is placed in the receiving cavity and is fastened into a whole by screws. There is a gap between the corundum tube and the receiving cavity of the connector, and the gap is connected to the exhaust hole to form an exhaust channel; a connecting nut is pre-buried on the upper part of the black body tube, and the connector is connected and fixed to the connecting nut by an external thread, and the junction between the connector and the black body tube is sealed by a fixed filler. This application has no redundant parts, is easy to install, has accurate connector alignment, and has good temperature measurement effect of the temperature measuring tube.

The sampler of the application has good air permeability, is easy to demold after sampling, does not require manual knocking, has good heat dissipation, shortens the overall time of sampling and testing, reduces the smelting time of steelmaking, and has the advantages of simple structure, reasonable design and easy manufacturing.
[0005] Although the above application can realize the sampling and temperature measurement operations of smelted metal, the temperature measurement and molten steel sampling are carried out separately, which increases the number and time of measurement and sampling, reduces the overall production efficiency, and increases the cost of steelmaking.

[0035] In order to further understand the content of the utility model, the utility model is described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0036] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0037] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, a molten steel temperature measuring device of this embodiment includes a connecting pipe 1 and a temperature measuring component 2 and a sampling assembly 3 arranged on the connecting pipe 1. The temperature measuring component 2 is used to detect the temperature of the molten steel, and the sampling assembly 3 is used to perform sampling operations on the molten steel.
[0039] Preferably, the temperature measuring component 2 is a temperature measuring thermocouple.
[0040] The temperature measuring device of this embodiment integrates the functions of temperature measurement and sampling, and can complete the temperature measurement and sampling work at one time, which solves the problem that the temperature measurement and sampling of iron and steel plants cannot be used universally in the past. It reduces the labor intensity and safety risks of workers, improves the smelting time of steelmaking, and reduces the cost of steelmaking.
[0041] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the connecting tube 1 is preferably a paper tube, which includes an inner sleeve 11 and an outer sleeve 12. The temperature measuring component 2 is arranged at the end of the inner sleeve 11; the outer sleeve 12 is sleeved on the inner sleeve 11, and the end of the outer sleeve 12 is aligned with the end of the inner sleeve 11 provided with the temperature measuring component 2, which is used to protect the inner sleeve 11 to prevent it from melting due to high temperature, so that the temperature measurement and sampling operations cannot be carried out normally.
[0042] Furthermore, the outer sleeve 12 is divided into two sections, and the two sections clamp the sampling assembly 3 in the middle to complete the installation and positioning of the sampling assembly 3. Preferably, an interference fit is adopted between the inner and outer sleeves.
[0043] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the sampling assembly 3 includes a mounting portion 31 and a sampling box 32. The mounting portion 31 is sleeved on the inner sleeve 11 and is close to one end of the temperature measuring component 2. At the same time, refractory mud is provided at the connection between the mounting portion 31 and the outer sleeves 12 on both sides to ensure the stability and sealing of the connection between the mounting portion 31 and the outer sleeves 12.
[0044] A chamber 311 is provided in the mounting portion 31, and the sampling box 32 is located in the chamber 311. At the same time, a sampling port 33 is provided on the side of the chamber 311 facing the temperature measuring component 2. A flow guide tube may be provided at the sampling port 33, one end of which extends into the sampling box 32 and the other end is located outside the mounting portion 31, so that the molten steel can flow into the sampling box 32 through the flow guide tube to complete the sampling operation.
[0045] In order to ensure that the outer sleeve 12 can effectively protect the inner sleeve 11, when the temperature measuring component 2 is located at a specified depth in the molten steel, part of the outer sleeve 12 is still located above the surface of the molten steel. For the convenience of description, the sum of the lengths of the two outer sleeves 12 and the mounting portion 31 is recorded as L1, that is, L1 must be greater than the measurement and sampling depth of the molten steel, so that during the sampling process, the inner sleeve 11 is actually not in contact with the molten steel.
[0046] Preferably, the value range of L1 is 350mm-400mm. This is because under normal circumstances, the temperature measurement and sampling depth of molten steel is about 300mm, and if it exceeds 50-100mm, it can have a certain heat insulation effect on the area of the inner sleeve 11 located above the molten steel surface, preventing the inner sleeve 11 from melting due to heat radiation.
[0047] In addition, a protective cap may be provided at the end of the flow guide tube to prevent slag. Preferably, the protective cap is an aluminum cap. This is because aluminum has a lower melting point and can be used as a deoxidizer after being dissolved, thereby effectively preventing oxidation of the molten steel.
[0048] As an implementation of the sampling box 32, in this embodiment, the sampling box 32 adopts a split structure to facilitate the subsequent opening operation.
[0049] Specifically, refer to Figure 5As shown, it includes two parts, upper and lower, which are interlocked, and the side walls (walls in contact with each other) of the two parts are both provided with notches, and the corresponding notches on the two parts form pores, so that the inner cavity of the sampling box 32 is interconnected with the chamber 311. This ensures that the molten steel flows into and fills the inner cavity of the sampling box 32 more easily, which is beneficial to ensure the overall shape of the sample block and improve the detection efficiency.
[0050] Furthermore, the sampling box 32 is in the shape of a racket as a whole, and the upper and lower parts are pre-connected by glue.
[0051] In this embodiment, the mounting portion 31 can be formed by condensing resin sand or coated sand, preferably coated sand. The mounting portion 31 made of coated sand can protect the internal sampling box 32 in a short time; at the same time, the mounting portion 31 made of coated sand has good air permeability and fast heat dissipation, which can accelerate the cooling and forming of the sample in the sampling box 32, thereby shortening the sampling. After the sampling is completed, the coated sand soaked in high-temperature molten steel becomes loose, and the coated sand shell will fall off when it is lightly knocked on the ground; combined with the split design of the sampling box 32, the sample can be easily removed.
[0052] A molten steel temperature measuring device of this embodiment is provided with a temperature measuring component 2 and a sampling component 3 on a connecting pipe 1, integrating temperature measuring and sampling functions, which can greatly improve work efficiency. The temperature measuring device is applied in actual production, and the sampling time can be saved by 2-3 minutes per furnace on average, and the output of the steelmaking process can be increased by 2-3 furnaces (about 200 tons of steel) per day.
[0053] The above schematically describes the present invention and its implementation methods, which are not restrictive. The drawings show only one implementation method of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if ordinary technicians in this field are inspired by it and design structural methods and embodiments similar to the technical solution without creativity without departing from the purpose of the present invention, they should all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
