Due to the production process characteristics of the ultra-thin strip, the master alloy liquid must be highly purified. In the continuous production of nanocrystalline strip, the liquid steel is supplied to the nozzle package from the tundish bottom nozzle to realize continuous production. The liquid steel is poured into the middle pouring pipe from the bottom nozzle of the tundish, then flows into the nozzle package from the bottom of the middle pouring pipe, and finally is sprayed from the lower end nozzle gap of the nozzle package to the high-speed rotating crystallizer to form an ultra-thin strip. During the bottom pouring process, the tundish bottom nozzle, the upper nozzle of the nozzle package and the lower nozzle of the middle pouring pipe are sealed and connected by a special device. If there is a defect such as poor sealing in this space, the liquid steel flow will be in contact with the atmosphere, thereby causing secondary oxidation of the liquid steel. At the same time, the middle pouring pipe is exposed to the atmosphere, which will cause a significant temperature drop, and then the high-melting-point inclusions in the liquid steel will be precipitated. The formation of new oxides and the increase of inclusions will deteriorate the purity of the liquid steel. The inclusions in the liquid steel will be precipitated and formed into nodules at the nozzle gap, which will seriously affect the surface quality of the strip, causing scratches, splitting and even blocking the nozzle to cause the spraying to stop.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The following will be described in detail in combination with the accompanying Figures 1-4 The application will be further described in detail.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] As shown in the figure, a middle injection module for a tundish comprises a middle injection pipe 1 and a heating device 2, the heating device 2 is wrapped outside the middle injection pipe 1, and the heating device 2 can heat the liquid steel in the middle injection pipe 1. Figure 1
[0033] As shown in the figure, the middle injection pipe is located below the tundish 8 and has a liquid inlet 11 and a liquid outlet 12, along the direction from the liquid inlet 11 to the liquid outlet 12, a plurality of filter layers are distributed in the inner cavity of the middle injection pipe 1, and the position between each adjacent two filter layers in the inner cavity of the middle injection pipe 1 forms a liquid steel buffer area A, and along the direction from the liquid inlet 11 to the liquid outlet 12 of the middle injection pipe 1, in each adjacent two filter layers, the filter pore size of the filter layer close to the liquid outlet 12 is smaller than that of the filter layer close to the liquid inlet 11. Figure 2 4
[0034] As shown in the figure, the middle injection pipe is located below the tundish 8 and has a liquid inlet 11 and a liquid outlet 12, along the direction from the liquid inlet 11 to the liquid outlet 12, a plurality of filter layers are distributed in the inner cavity of the middle injection pipe 1, and the position between each adjacent two filter layers in the inner cavity of the middle injection pipe 1 forms a liquid steel buffer area A, and along the direction from the liquid inlet 11 to the liquid outlet 12 of the middle injection pipe 1, in each adjacent two filter layers, the filter pore size of the filter layer close to the liquid outlet 12 is smaller than that of the filter layer close to the liquid inlet 11. Figure 2 As shown, specifically, the filter layer of the embodiment includes two, the filter layer includes the first filter layer 13 and the second filter layer 14 which are spaced from top to bottom, the adjacent first filter layer 13 and the second filter layer 14 are spaced a certain distance, the first filter layer 13 and the second filter layer 14 form the molten steel buffer area A in the cavity of the tundish 1, since the porosity of the first filter layer 13 is greater than the porosity of the second filter layer 14, for example, the porosity of the first filter layer 13 can be 20-50 ppi, specifically, it can be any one of 20 ppi, 22 ppi, 24 ppi, 26 ppi, 28 ppi, 30 ppi, 32 ppi, 34 ppi, 36 ppi, 38 ppi, 40 ppi, 42 ppi, 44 ppi, 46 ppi, 48 ppi and 50 ppi, and it can also be any porosity between the above two adjacent porosities. The porosity of the second filter layer 14 can be 15-20 ppi, specifically, it can be any one of 15 ppi, 16 ppi, 17 ppi, 18 ppi, 19 ppi and 20 ppi, and it can also be any porosity between the above two adjacent porosities. Through the design of such porosity, not only the molten steel buffer area A can be formed, but also the function of filtering the steel slag and impurities in the molten steel can be achieved. The flow rate of the molten steel through the first filter layer 13 from top to bottom is greater than the flow rate through the second filter layer 14, which makes the molten steel accumulate in the molten steel buffer area A, forming a molten steel pool.
[0035] A plurality of filter layers are arranged in the tundish 1, that is, a plurality of molten steel buffer areas A can be formed, which can filter the steel slag and inclusions. The large flow of molten steel flowing out of the tundish 8 becomes a small flow after being buffered by the first filter layer 13 and the second filter layer 14, which can reduce the impact of the molten steel on the nozzle pack 5, thereby reducing the instability of the strip production process and thickness caused by the fluctuation of the liquid level.
[0036] The filter layer of the embodiment is selected from a foamed ceramic filter screen, preferably a zirconia foamed ceramic filter screen.
[0037] As shown in Figure 3 , 4 The heating device 2 is a hollow cylindrical opening and closing structure, and the heating device 2 is a layer structure including a heat supplement layer 21, a heat preservation layer 22, an induction coil 23 and a protection layer 24 arranged in order from inside to outside.
[0038] The heat supplement layer 21 is tightly attached to the outer wall of the tundish 1 and is used for heat supplement. The heat supplement layer 21 can be selected from a graphite heat supplement layer, which can supplement the heat of the molten steel pool and the molten steel flowing through the tundish 1 by radiation, thereby improving the stability of the induction heating of the coil.
[0039] The heat preservation layer 22 can effectively prevent the heat loss of the heat source centered on the tundish 1 and the molten steel; the induction coil 23 can heat and provide heat energy for the heat supplement layer 21; and the protection layer 24 is located at the outermost layer of the heating device 2 and can protect the heating device 2.
[0040] It should be noted that, in the present application, the heat preservation layer 22 can be any material capable of preventing heat loss. For example, it can be an aluminum silicate fiber blanket. The heat preservation layer 22 can improve the safety of the furnace body while insulating and preserving heat. The protection layer 22 is mainly used for physical protection, and therefore it can be any structure of any material. For example, it can be a ceramic tube or an asbestos cloth. The electromagnetic induction coil 23 is in a spiral shape. Preferably, the spiral axis of the electromagnetic induction coil 23 coincides with the axis of the heat supplement layer 21.
[0041] Similar to the specific material, whether the ceramic filter pore size needs to be disclosed in this patent
[0042] The heating device 2 can be a tubular open and closed induction heating device, which can adjust the temperature of the molten steel flowing in the tundish 1 and the molten steel pool.
[0043] The heating device 2 of the embodiment is controlled by a temperature control unit, which includes an induction coil adjustment module, a temperature measuring element, and a PLC controller. The temperature measuring element is arranged at a temperature measuring port of the heating device and is used to collect the temperature of the molten steel at the corresponding position in the tundish 1. The temperature measuring element can be an infrared temperature sensor. The induction coil adjustment module is electrically connected with the induction coil. The PLC controller is electrically connected with the induction coil adjustment module and the temperature measuring element. The PLC controller controls the induction coil to adjust the temperature through the induction coil adjustment module according to the temperature information collected by the temperature measuring element, so as to automatically adjust the temperature of the heating device 2, maintain the stability of the molten steel temperature, and stabilize the molten steel at 1300-1400±3℃ according to the process requirements of the nanocrystalline strip of different components, such as 1300℃, 1330℃, 1350℃, and 1400℃, or any value between the adjacent values.
[0044] Since the flow rate of the molten steel in the tundish 1 above the molten steel buffer area A is fast, the molten steel in the tundish 1 below the molten steel buffer area A is in the form of droplets. Therefore, the heating device 2 is wrapped around the molten steel buffer area A in the tundish 1, so as to supplement the heat of the molten steel in the molten steel buffer area A.
[0045] The induction heating method can heat the graphite heat supplement layer to 1000 degrees in 30 seconds. The graphite heat supplement layer and the electromagnetic induction heating are used to heat the molten steel in the tundish 1, so as to improve the heating efficiency and stability. When there is no molten steel in the tundish 1, the graphite heat supplement layer can still radiate heat to keep the tundish 1 at a high temperature.
[0046] In an embodiment, the heating device 2 can further comprise a heat insulation layer arranged between the heat preservation layer 22 and the induction coil 23, which can improve the safety of the heating device 2 while insulating heat. The present application combines the heat insulation layer and the heat preservation layer, which is beneficial to reduce the heat loss of the heating device 2 and improve the heat insulation effect and thermal efficiency of the pouring protection system.
[0047] In the present embodiment, the intermediate ladle pouring module can be used in the process of casting nanocrystalline flat flow strip by bottom pouring of the intermediate ladle, and of course, the present application is not limited thereto, but can also be used in other types of bottom pouring processes of the intermediate ladle in the field of steelmaking.

[0051] As shown in Figure 4 Since the intermediate pouring pipe 1 transports molten steel for a long time, it is also a consumable, and its two ends are generally connected to the intermediate ladle 1 and the nozzle package 5 through a detachable structure, respectively. The shape and structure of the intermediate ladle 8, the intermediate pouring pipe 1 and the nozzle package 5 are not limited, and they can be any structure. In the present embodiment, the intermediate ladle 8 is a columnar shell with an upper opening, the upper end of the intermediate pouring pipe 1 is provided with a dismounting device 3 for realizing quick dismounting and mounting with the intermediate ladle 8, and the dismounting device 3 can adopt a buckle type vacuum flange device.

[0052] The upper end of the dismounting device 3 is provided with an elastic compensation device 4, which can adopt a corrugated structure elastic compensation device; one end of the elastic compensation device 4 is connected to the dismounting device 3, and the other end of the elastic compensation device 4 is connected to the lower end of the intermediate ladle 8; the elastic compensation device 4 can flexibly adjust the intermediate pouring pipe 1, so that the axis of the intermediate pouring pipe 1 in the vertical state is coaxial with the lower nozzle runner of the intermediate ladle 8, and the molten steel flows along the axis of the intermediate pouring pipe 1 when the intermediate ladle 8 is pouring.
[0053] The nozzle package 5 is used to receive liquid steel from the tundish 8, and when the connection between the nozzle pipe 1 and the tundish 8 or the nozzle package 5 leaks, the liquid steel is easily oxidized. In the embodiment, the upper end of the nozzle package 5 is provided with a nozzle package air inlet 51 which is in communication with the inner cavity of the nozzle package 5, and the nozzle pipe 1 is provided with a protective gas outlet 16 above the nozzle pipe 1, and the protective gas outlet 16 is provided with a pressure control valve; the lower end of the nozzle pipe 1 is in communication with the protective gas inlet 15.
[0054] The nozzle pipe 1 is provided with the protective gas inlet 15 and the protective gas outlet 16, and along the direction of the nozzle pipe 1 from the liquid inlet 11 to the liquid outlet 12, the protective gas inlet 15 is located on the side of the liquid storage area A away from the liquid inlet 11, and the protective gas outlet 16 is located on the side of the liquid storage area A towards the liquid inlet 11.
[0055] The protective gas inlet 15 is used to input protective gas into the nozzle pipe 1, and the protective gas outlet 16 is used to output protective gas, so as to further ensure that the liquid steel in the nozzle pipe 1 is not easily oxidized. The protective gas can be an inert gas with a density greater than air, such as argon or nitrogen.
[0056] The system fills the protective gas from the nozzle package air inlet 51, and the protective gas fills the nozzle package 5 and the nozzle pipe 1, keeps the nozzle package air inlet 51 in a positive pressure state at all times, so that the external air cannot enter the nozzle package 5 and the nozzle pipe 1, and the protective gas can protect the liquid steel in the nozzle pipe 1, avoiding the technical problems of the prior art that the existing technology cannot solve the problem of the large increase in the oxygen content of the liquid steel caused by the loose sealing of argon, and the large amount of oxide inclusions in the liquid steel, which causes the strip casting process to be interrupted and the performance of the strip to be reduced, and the technical problem that the existing technology cannot solve the problem of the large heat loss of the liquid steel in the nozzle pipe and the difficulty of heating the high-speed moving liquid steel.

The liquid steel is dynamic, and during the pouring process, the liquid steel flows out from the bottom of the tundish 8, flows through the nozzle pipe 1 and then enters the nozzle package 5.
[0058] When the liquid steel passes through the nozzle pipe 1, the liquid steel is buffered at each layer of foam ceramic filter screen, and since the pore size of the upper foam ceramic filter screen is larger than that of the lower foam ceramic filter screen, the flow rate of the liquid steel through the lower foam ceramic filter screen is smaller than that through the upper foam ceramic filter screen, and the liquid steel will accumulate between the adjacent two layers of foam ceramic filter screens, forming a dynamic and stable liquid steel, that is, a liquid steel storage pool.

[0065] The temperature control unit of the application can heat the steel liquid in the middle injection pipe 1 steel liquid buffer zone A, and compensate the heat loss of the steel liquid in the pouring process; at the same time, the argon gas flow from bottom to top can wash the steel liquid in the steel storage pool, which is beneficial to the separation of steel slag in the steel liquid and the filtration of the foam filter ceramic, so as to realize the effect of purifying the steel liquid.
