Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of steelmaking, and in particular to a roller table device for a special steel heating furnace and a use thereof. Background Art

[0002] The billet alloy content of special steel heating furnace is high, and the iron oxide scale produced after high temperature heating has high adhesion. When the heating furnace is tapping steel, the iron oxide scale adheres to the surface of the cantilever roller in the furnace. As the iron scale adhesion accumulates, many raised hard spots are formed on the roller surface, and pits and scratches appear on the lower surface of the billet when the roller transports the billet.

[0003] At present, the steel bar rolling production line adopts a walking-type double-heat storage heating furnace, and the heating furnace is loaded and unloaded by the side-in and side-out method of the roller table inside the furnace.

[0004] For example, CN112692054A discloses a bar steel rolling and cutting process that can reduce the cost of raw materials, including the following steps: prepare the steel bar to be cut, heat it in a heating furnace, and then use the rough rolling unit for processing; then enter the medium rolling unit after passing through the 1# flying shear head, and obtain a preset rectangle through two horizontal and vertical rolling passes, and then enter the pre-cutting and cutting passes immediately, and then the several groups of billets separated by the cutting are respectively entered into the controlled rolling water tank and passed through the water pipe for temperature control; then pass through the 2# flying shear head, and the multiple groups of steel materials after cutting are simultaneously entered into the finishing rolling unit for rolling 2-4 passes to form finished products. This scheme can most effectively avoid the adverse effects of controlled rolling and cooling of low-temperature steel on the cutting pass, while meeting the requirement that the steel rolling capacity is not affected and can also achieve controlled rolling and controlled cooling to achieve the goal of refining the internal structure grain of the finished product, without using a high-alloyed billet to improve the physical properties, and truly achieve the ultimate goal of reducing the alloy ratio and reducing the cost of raw materials.

[0005] CN102889786A discloses a cantilever roller, comprising at least one cantilever roller unit with water inner cooling, the unit comprising a roller filled with refractory fiber installed in the cantilever roller, the roller is installed on a high-performance alloy steel roller shaft that is water-cooled and air-cooled or wrapped with refractory fiber, the roller shaft is installed on the cantilever roller seat with a high-temperature rolling bearing, the roller seat is equipped with a reducer with a variable frequency motor, the gap between the rotating roller shaft and the fixed insulation sleeve is passed through cold air to block the heat flow from overflowing, or the roller shaft is wrapped with refractory fiber, the insulation sleeve is sleeved in a special prefabricated part, the gap between them is filled with refractory cotton, and is sealed with a pressure plate. The prefabricated part is built in the furnace wall, the end of the roller shaft is connected to the rotary joint, and the roller seat is slidably fixed on the base. The roller shaft cantilever length in this scheme is greatly shortened, the operating conditions are improved, the operating reliability is improved, the equipment structure is simple, and the maintenance is convenient and fast, which is suitable for both new construction and technical transformation of old furnaces.

[0006] However, due to the production process of special steel, the temperature of the billet when entering the furnace is strictly required to avoid internal structural defects of the billet caused by overheating. After the billet in the furnace is fully preheated, it enters the rapid heating stage and the soaking stage, and the furnace temperature reaches between 1150-1250℃. Si, Ni, and Cr in special steel have strong adhesion at high temperatures. As the heating furnace continuously discharges steel, the iron oxide scale on the lower surface of the billet continuously adheres to the surface of the roller in the furnace, resulting in the formation of many protruding hard spots on the surface of the roller, which damages the lower surface of the high-temperature billet discharged from the furnace. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a special steel heating furnace roller device and its use to solve the problem of iron oxide scale adhesion on the lower surface of the steel billet when the heating furnace continuously discharges steel during the special steel preparation process.

[0008] To achieve this object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a special steel heating furnace roller device, the special steel heating furnace roller device comprising a roller and a mandrel located on the same center line;

[0010] The alloy of the roller is calculated by mass percentage: C 0.35-0.55%, Si 1-2.5%, Cr 27-30%, W 4-6%, Mn≤1.5%, P≤0.04%, S≤0.05%, and the balance is Ni;

[0011] The mandrel comprises a first mandrel portion, a second mandrel portion and a third mandrel portion which are connected in sequence;

[0012] The first mandrel portion is located inside the roller table;

[0013] The first mandrel portion, the second mandrel portion and the third mandrel portion are connected by a chamfered structure;

[0014] The diameter of the water channel in the first core shaft portion>the diameter of the water channel in the second core shaft portion>the diameter of the water channel in the third core shaft portion;

[0015] The length of the water channel in the first core shaft portion is less than the length of the water channel in the third core shaft portion and less than the length of the water channel in the second core shaft portion.

[0016] The roller device of the special steel heating furnace provided by the present invention avoids the adhesion of iron oxide scale to the roller surface during the heating process of special steel, thereby preventing pits and scratches on the lower surface of the steel billet, and causing folding defects on the surface of the bar, through the redesign of the roller material and the design inside the mandrel. This is because the billet alloy content of the special steel heating furnace is relatively high, and the iron oxide scale produced after high-temperature heating has high adhesion. When the heating furnace is tapping steel, the iron oxide scale adheres to the surface of the cantilever roller in the furnace. With the accumulation of the amount of iron scale adhesion, many raised hard spots are formed on the roller surface, and pits and scratches appear on the lower surface of the steel billet when the roller transports the steel billet.
