DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0016] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention in combination with specific embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the blast furnace distributor of the present invention includes an outer shell 1, a rotating barrel 2 is installed on the upper part of the outer shell 1, the bottom of the rotating barrel 2 is connected to the chute 3, a plurality of first air outlets 4 are arranged in an annular manner on the side wall of the outer shell 1, the first air outlet 4 is connected to the first conveying pipe 5, a top plate 8 is fixed on the top of the outer shell 1, an exhaust rack 6 is installed in the rotating barrel 2, the first conveying pipe 5 is connected to the exhaust rack 6 through a universal joint 7, a plurality of second air outlets 9 are arranged in an annular manner on the side wall of the outer shell 1, the second air outlet 9 is connected to the inside of the blast furnace through a second conveying pipe 10, an air pump 11 is installed on the second conveying pipe 10, the second air outlet 9 is located above the first air outlet 4, and the first air outlet 4 and the second air outlet 9 are staggered along the radial direction of the outer shell 1, an annular partition 12 is provided between the first air outlet 4 and the second air outlet 9, the end of the first air outlet 4 is a slope, and the top of the first air outlet 4 is provided with an extension 20 extending into the outer shell 1.

[0018] The exhaust rack 6 comprises a plurality of frame layers 13, each of which is provided with a plurality of guide plates 14. Each guide plate 14 is provided with vents 15. A gas pipe 16 is inserted into the bottom of each vent 15, and the other end of each gas pipe 16 is connected to the universal joint 7. A guide groove 17 is provided on the surface of each guide plate 14, connected to each vent 15. The guide plate 14 includes a first step 18 and a second step 19. The first step 18 is located above the second step 19, and the vents 15 and guide groove 17 are located on the first step 18.

[0019] In the process of using the blast furnace distributor of the present invention to feed the blast furnace, the coal gas flow flows upward from the furnace, and part of the coal gas enters the exhaust frame 6 through the first gas outlet 4 and the first conveying pipe 5, and is discharged upward through various air vents 15 in the exhaust frame 6, thereby realizing preheating of the raw materials in the rotating barrel 2. Therefore, the blast furnace distributor of the present invention uses the high-temperature coal gas overflowing during the feeding process to preheat the raw materials to be fed, thereby reducing the temperature fluctuations generated after the feeding; moreover, the coal gas flowing out of the rotating barrel 2 and other coal gas flowing directly out of the furnace are forcibly sucked out by the air pump 11 at the second gas outlet 9, and returned to the inside of the blast furnace through the second conveying pipe 10. The entire coal gas flow can form a stable and uniform flow state in the blast furnace and the distributor. Therefore, the blast furnace distributor of the present invention uses the air pump to optimize the flow circulation of the coal gas in the furnace and the distributor, reduces the disturbance turbulence of the coal gas flow, and thus reduces the interference of feeding on the working conditions in the furnace.

[0020] In addition, in the blast furnace burden distributor of the present invention, by arranging the first air outlet 4 and the second air outlet 9 staggeredly along the radial direction of the outer shell 1 and adding an annular partition plate 12 between the first air outlet 4 and the second air outlet 9, the mutual interference between the first air outlet 4 and the second air outlet 9 can be reduced. The inclined surface shape of the first air outlet 4 can facilitate the gas to enter the first air outlet 4. The material will be continuously agitated under the drive of the rotating drum 2. In this process, through the diversion of the diversion plate 14, the turnover efficiency of the material can be improved, and the uniformity of the material's heat absorption can be enhanced. Through the special design of the shape of the diversion plate 14, the longitudinal vibration amplitude of the material is strengthened by using the stepped structure of the diversion plate 14, so as to further improve the ventilation efficiency of the gas in cooperation with the ventilation holes 15 and the diversion grooves 17.
