Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of continuous casting machine crystallizers, in particular to a square billet continuous casting machine crystallizer. Background Art

[0002] The crystallizer is the most critical component of the continuous casting machine. It receives the molten steel injected from the intermediate tank and solidifies it into a solid shell according to the specified cross-sectional shape. Its main functions include: gradually solidifying the molten steel into a shell of the required specifications and shape; through the vibration of the crystallizer, the shell is separated from the crystallizer wall without being pulled apart or leaking steel; adjusting the parameters of the crystallizer to prevent defects such as squareness, bulging and cracks in the casting; ensuring that the shell is generated uniformly and stably. To ensure the good performance of the crystallizer, it needs to meet some basic conditions, such as good thermal conductivity to enable the molten steel to condense and form quickly; good wear resistance to extend the service life and reduce maintenance workload; sufficient rigidity to maintain small deformation under conditions of rapid cooling and heating and large temperature gradients.

[0003] Existing technologies include a utility model with publication number CN214720387U, which discloses a novel continuous casting machine crystallizer. The patent uses a mounting plate, through which a crystallizer shell is inserted. The crystallizer shell is hollow and through-set. A cooling device is provided in the crystallizer shell, and a cooling water supply device is provided below the mounting plate. The cooling device can timely reduce the temperature of the outer wall of the material pipe to ensure a high-quality molding effect of the molten material. The cooling device is detachable from the crystallizer shell, and when a material pipe fails, it can be replaced with a new one in a timely manner without replacing the entire crystallizer. This solves the problem that the internal structure of the crystallizer is easily damaged due to long-term exposure to high temperature and high pressure. When replacing, the staff needs to replace the entire crystallizer with a new one, which increases production costs.

[0004] In the process of producing auxiliary continuous casting machines with the help of crystallizers, most of the crystallizer foot rollers on the market are fixed to the bottom of the equipment body with multiple bolts. When the staff needs to disassemble and maintain the foot roller, the staff must use tools to remove the bolts one by one before removing the foot roller. Due to the large number of bolts used for installation, when the staff performs the disassembly operation, it takes a long time to perform the disassembly operation, which in turn leads to the problem of increased maintenance costs of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0012] Preferably, the number of the anti-slip knobs is four, and the four anti-slip knobs are arranged diagonally with respect to the crystallization. The anti-slip knobs can be used for the staff to hold, thereby facilitating the staff to operate the bidirectional shaft.

[0013] Preferably, there are two threaded sleeves, which are symmetrically arranged about the bidirectional shaft. Through the cooperation between the threaded sleeve and the bidirectional shaft, the position of the load plate can be adjusted during the rotation of the bidirectional shaft.

[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 The utility model provides a technical solution: a crystallizer of a square billet continuous casting machine, comprising a support plate 1, a crystallization chamber 2 and a quick-release assembly 5, the crystallization chamber 2 is installed inside the support plate 1, an end cover 3 is installed on the upper surface of the crystallization chamber 2, a conduit 4 is fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the crystallization chamber 2, the conduit 4 is communicated with the inner wall of the crystallization chamber 2, the conduit 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support plate 1, the quick-release assembly 5 is arranged on the arc surface of the crystallization chamber 2, and a foot roller 6 is installed on the lower surface of the crystallization chamber 2.

[0025] In this embodiment: the quick-release assembly 5 includes a connecting unit 51, which includes an L-shaped bracket 511. The L-shaped bracket 511 abuts against the arc surface of the crystallization chamber 2, and the L-shaped bracket 511 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the foot roller 6. The side surface of the L-shaped bracket 511 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped block 512. A rotating hole is opened on the surface of the U-shaped block 512. The U-shaped block 512 is located on the inner wall of the rotating hole and is rotatably connected to a two-way shaft rod 513. The surface of the two-way shaft rod 513 is fixedly connected to a limiting ring 514. Both ends of the two-way shaft rod 513 are fixedly connected to a connecting sleeve 515. The surface of the connecting sleeve 515 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 516. The side surface of the connecting sleeve 515 is fixedly connected to a positioning plate 517. Both ends of the two-way shaft rod 513 are fixedly connected to an anti-slip knob 518.

[0026] The quick-release assembly 5 also includes a constraint unit 52, which includes a threaded sleeve 521. The threaded sleeve 521 is threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional shaft 513. The side surface of the threaded sleeve 521 is fixedly connected to a force-bearing plate 522. The side surface of the force-bearing plate 522 is fixedly connected to a bayonet 523. The arc surface of the crystallization chamber 2 is fixedly connected to a buckle frame 524. The bayonet 523 is plugged into the inner wall of the buckle frame 524.

[0027] Specifically, there are two L-shaped brackets 511, and the two L-shaped brackets 511 are symmetrically arranged front to back about the crystallization chamber 2. The clamping area formed by the two L-shaped brackets 511 is interference fit with the arc surface of the crystallization chamber 2. The number of U-shaped blocks 512 matches the L-shaped brackets 511. Through the L-shaped brackets 511 on both sides during crystallization, the position of the foot roller 6 can be initially limited to the installation area below the crystallization chamber 2.

[0028] Specifically, there are two limiting rings 514 , which are disposed bilaterally symmetrically with respect to the U-shaped block 512 , and the limiting rings 514 are in contact with the surface of the U-shaped block 512 .

[0029] In this embodiment, the position of the bidirectional shaft 513 can be limited by the limiting ring 514, thereby ensuring the stability of the bidirectional shaft 513 in the working state.

[0030] Specifically, there are two connecting rods 516, and the two connecting rods 516 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the crystallization chamber 2. The positioning plate 517 contacts the surface of the connecting rod 516. The connecting rod 516 can support the position of the two-way shaft rods 513 on both sides, and at the same time, it can cooperate with the two-way shaft rods 513 on both sides to form a frame to limit the position of the L-shaped bracket 511.

[0031] In this embodiment, there are four anti-slip knobs 518 , and the four anti-slip knobs 518 are arranged diagonally with respect to the crystallization.

[0032] In this embodiment, the anti-slip knob 518 can be held by the staff, thereby facilitating the staff to operate the bidirectional shaft 513 .

[0033] Specifically, there are two threaded sleeves 521, and the two threaded sleeves 521 are symmetrically arranged about the bidirectional shaft 513. Through the cooperation between the threaded sleeves 521 and the bidirectional shaft 513, the position of the load-bearing plate 522 can be adjusted during the rotation of the bidirectional shaft 513.

[0034] Specifically, a through hole is opened on the surface of the load-bearing plate 522 , and the bidirectional shaft 513 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the through hole.

[0035] In this embodiment, the force-carrying plate 522 can limit the position of the latch 523 within the buckle frame 524 under the action of the threaded sleeve 521 , so that the latch 523 can cooperate with the force-carrying plate 522 to limit the position of the bidirectional shaft 513 .

[0036] Working principle: When the crystallizer is working, molten steel enters the crystallization chamber 2, and the mold in the crystallization chamber 2 shapes the molten steel. The molten steel after shaping is formed into a square billet, and is guided by the foot roller 6 to the next processing area; when the foot roller 6 needs to be disassembled and maintained, the two anti-slip knobs 518 in the longitudinal direction are rotated clockwise. The anti-slip knobs 518 rotate the two-way shafts 513 on both sides. The two-way shafts 513 rotate under the constraints of the U-shaped block 512 and the connecting rod 516, and engage with the threaded sleeve 521 during rotation. The threaded sleeve 521 is engaged with the two-way shaft 513. The force-carrying plate 522 is driven to move, and the force-carrying plate 522 pulls the latch 523 to disengage from the buckle frame 524, so that the two-way shaft rod 513 is no longer restricted. Then the two-way shaft rod 513 can be pulled downward, and the two-way shaft rod 513 cooperates with the U-shaped block 512 and the L-shaped bracket 511 to pull off the foot roller 6, thereby realizing the disassembly operation of the foot roller 6. By setting up the quick-release component 5, it is convenient for the staff to disassemble and maintain the foot roller 6 of the equipment, thereby reducing the problem of increased maintenance costs caused by the cumbersome disassembly operation when fixing with bolts, and further improving the convenience of equipment maintenance.
