Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgy, and in particular to a blast furnace residual iron discharge structure, a blast furnace and a blast furnace residual iron discharge method. Background Art

[0002] In the field of steel smelting, the blast furnace needs to be shut down for overhaul regularly according to the smelting conditions of the blast furnace, the erosion of the inner wall of the furnace lining, cracks in the furnace shell and other problems. After the blast furnace has produced the last batch of iron and stopped blowing, there is still a large amount of residual molten iron inside the blast furnace. At this time, it is necessary to open a residual iron hole on the furnace shell of the blast furnace, then dismantle the cooling wall, and finally open holes in the internal carbon bricks and other refractory materials to finally release the residual iron inside the furnace. Whether the slag iron in the furnace can be discharged cleanly directly affects the construction progress during the maintenance process. The elevation positioning of the discharge of residual slag iron is an important link in releasing the residual iron. If the elevation is too low, the slag iron may not be released, and it is necessary to open the hole again, increasing the workload. If the elevation is too high, the residual iron in the furnace cannot be discharged cleanly.

[0003] In the prior art, the residual iron mouth is opened after the furnace shell is cut, and the cooling wall is removed and the refractory material is drilled. The speed of any step restricts the progress of the overall blast furnace maintenance. Protective measures should be taken in advance when cutting the furnace shell, because the hot air returning from the cut is very strong when cutting the furnace shell, and the oxygen pressure is very high at the same time. The oxide slag splashed back from the cut can easily burn the human body. It is also necessary to adjust the verticality and distance between the cutting nozzle and the furnace shell. Because the furnace shell plate is thick, the starting point of the furnace shell cut must be fully preheated during cutting to ensure that the cut is thorough. If the cut seam is heated unevenly, the cut seam line will be arc-shaped and not straight during operation, and the cutting speed is not well controlled, which will affect the cutting quality.

[0004] After the blast furnace is repaired, the carbon bricks, cooling walls, etc. need to be restored, and the cut furnace shell also needs to be re-welded. The new furnace shell must strictly follow the size of the "window" opened before. Before welding, the slag and rust spots left around during gas cutting need to be cleaned up. In order to prevent the furnace shell from deforming during welding, certain methods need to be taken to control the deformation of the furnace shell. It is also necessary to select appropriate welding rods, welding currents, etc. according to the material of the furnace shell for welding, so as to ensure the welding quality.

[0005] During the process of cutting and welding the furnace skin, the strength of the furnace skin steel plate in the heat-affected zone is reduced, increasing the risk of cracking in this area during use. Summary of the invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blast furnace residual iron discharge structure, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the blast furnace residual iron discharge structure 100 includes a furnace body 1 and a cover member 2.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the furnace body 1 includes a refractory layer 11, a cooling wall 12 and a furnace shell 13 from the inside to the outside, and the furnace shell 13 is provided with an opening corresponding to the preset residual iron placement position of the furnace body 1. In the design of the existing blast furnace, the position of the residual iron opening is pre-set on the furnace body 1, and the preset residual iron placement position is the position of the residual iron opening pre-set on the furnace body 1. Specifically, the cooling wall 12 includes a first section of the cooling wall and a second section of the cooling wall, and the preset residual iron placement position is usually located at the first section of the cooling wall and the second section of the cooling wall. The opening of the furnace shell 13 corresponds to the preset residual iron placement position, which usually means that the opening of the furnace shell 13 covers the preset residual iron placement position.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cover at the opening of the furnace shell 13 is provided with an openable and closable cover member 2, and the cover member 2 is arranged outward. The furnace shell 13 is provided with an openable and closable cover member 2. By opening the cover member 2, the relative position of the cooling wall 12 and the cover member 2 can be exposed to the outside (in this embodiment, the cover member 2 is arranged corresponding to the first section of the cooling wall and the second section of the cooling wall). In this way, when the blast furnace is overhauled, it is not necessary to cut the furnace shell 13 and weld the furnace shell 13. The cover member 2 is directly opened, the cooling wall 12 is removed, and the refractory material layer 11 is drilled. After the overhaul is completed, the cover member 2 is installed, and the space between the cover member 2 and the cooling wall 12 is perfused through the holes reserved in advance on the cover member 2 (the space between the furnace shell 13 and the cooling wall 12 is also filled with perfusion liquid), which reduces the time and possible danger of cutting and welding the furnace shell 13, shortens the overall blast furnace maintenance time, and improves economic benefits.

[0034] The furnace body 1 provided in the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a covering member 2 corresponding to the preset residual iron placement position. When the blast furnace is overhauled, there is no need to cut the furnace cladding 13 and weld the furnace cladding 13. The covering member 2 can be directly opened, the cooling wall 12 can be removed, and the refractory material layer 11 can be drilled. After the overhaul is completed, the covering member 2 can be closed, which reduces the time and possible dangers of cutting and welding the furnace cladding 13, shortens the overall blast furnace maintenance time, and improves the economic benefits.

[0035] The cover member 2 may be a flange door, etc. For example, in this embodiment, the cover member 2 is a square flange door. Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the flange door includes a connecting tube 21, a flange 22, an end cover 23 and a sealing ring; one end of the connecting tube 21 is connected to the furnace shell 13, and the end of the connecting tube 21 away from the furnace shell 13 is connected to the flange 22, and the end cover 23 covers the end of the connecting tube 21 away from the furnace shell 13, and the end cover 23 and the flange 22 are connected by a screw connection 3, and the sealing ring is arranged between the end cover 23 and the flange 22 (the sealing ring can be asbestos, ceramic fiber wool, graphite gasket, etc., and the use temperature of the sealing ring is greater than 150°C); the end cover 23 is penetrated by a perfusion hole 24 connected to the connecting tube 21. Perfusion can be performed through the perfusion hole 24 to achieve a sealing effect. Among them, the connecting tube 21 is usually arranged to extend horizontally.

[0036] In this embodiment, the end cap 23 is provided with an exhaust hole and a pouring hole 24 inside the upper and lower edges of the connecting tube 21, at least one pouring hole 24 and one exhaust hole are provided, and the pouring hole 24 and the exhaust hole are provided with valves, and the valves are closed after the pouring is completed. During the pouring process, when the pouring material is observed to come out from the exhaust hole, the pouring is completed, and then the valve is closed.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the flange 22 is inclined, and the flange 22 is inclined along the angle of the furnace shell 13 .

[0038] The screw connection 3 and the injection hole 24 are usually provided with a plurality of Figure 1 As shown, the end cover 23 is provided with a plurality of injection holes 24 ; a plurality of screw connectors 3 are provided along the circumference of the end cover 23 , and the plurality of screw connectors 3 are located outside the plurality of injection holes 24 , for example, two injection holes 24 are provided at intervals in the upper and lower directions.

[0039] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a blast furnace, which includes the blast furnace residual iron discharge structure as described above.

[0040] The embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for discharging residual iron in a blast furnace, comprising the following steps:

[0041] Step S110, opening the cover and determining the best position for placing residual iron.

[0042] Specifically, when placing the residual iron, the cover is opened, and a combination of theoretical calculation method, furnace shell surface temperature measurement method and carbon brick surface temperature measurement method is used to find the residual iron mouth elevation and determine the best residual iron placement position.

[0043] Step S120, dismantling the cooling wall at the best residual iron release position, and drilling holes in the refractory layer to release the residual molten iron in the furnace body.

[0044] Step S130, after the overhaul is completed, the cover is closed and the space between the cover and the cooling wall is poured.

[0045] For example, if the cover is a flange door, after the overhaul is completed, the flange door is directly installed, the nut is tightened, and the area between the cooling wall and the flange door is poured through the pouring holes pre-set on the flange door.

[0046] Optionally, after the residual iron is released, the refractory layer is repaired, the cooling wall is installed, the cover is closed, and the gap between the cover and the furnace shell is poured with refractory material. When the pouring material is observed to come out from the exhaust hole, the pouring is completed and then the valve is closed.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it.
