[0043] The following will be described in combination with examples of different application scenarios.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] The lifting hook 2 is used to lift a plurality of woven belts with lifting lugs, and the assembly steps are as follows:

[0046] First step: Prepare two inverted L-shaped cranes A and B, and make sure the base of the crane is movable on wheels. Adjust the position of the crane so that the distance between the ends of the horizontal arm is 10 cm, and then park the base of the crane and position it;

[0047] Second step: Use crane A to lift the base column 1 at the first lifting ring 1-1 to the installation position and hover;

[0048] Third step: Use crane B to lift the hook 2 at the second lifting ring 2-1, and operate crane B to rotate the horizontal arm so that the hook 2 gradually approaches the base column 1;

[0049] Fourth step: The operator manually holds the hook 2 or uses a bent steel pipe to assist the operation, inserts the first inlay strip 2-2 of the hook 2 into the inlay seat 1-3 of the base column 1, and then operates crane B to drop the hook so that the first inlay strip 2-2 is completely inserted into the bottom of the inlay seat 1-3;

[0050] Fifth step: Repeat the third and fourth steps to stably install the remaining three hooks 2 with the base column 1;

[0051] Sixth step: After the installation of all four hooks 2 is completed, crane A drops the hook to place the assembled lifting tool in the tool storage area, and then the crane hook lifts the lifting tool for lifting multiple woven belts with lifting lugs.

[0052] If the size of the base column 1 and the hook 2 used at the work site is small and the operator can carry it (for example, the single weight is less than 15 Kg), first hang the base column 1 on a dedicated hook beam, and then manually carry the hook 2 for inlay installation. The work site often encounters situations such as lifting and transporting slag pans, slag pots, cross-over flat cars, and track-type furnace dismantling cars for relocation and installation, or up and down converter and continuous casting platforms. If direct hoisting is used, the rigging is not easy to hang into the hook head of the crane. At this time, a ring chain with steel rings at both ends can be used, and the advantage of the lifting assembly with four hooks 2 can be utilized. One end of multiple ring chains is hung into the hook head of the lifting assembly, and then hoisted, which is convenient and practical.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] Use anchor hook 4 for slag cleaning, and the assembly steps are as follows:

[0055] The first to fifth steps are consistent with example 1;

[0056] Sixth step: After the installation of all four anchor hook bodies 4-3 is completed, crane A drops the hook to place the assembled lifting tool in the tool storage area, and then the crane hook lifts the lifting tool for cleaning the slag adhered to the mouth of the converter, AOD furnace, electric arc furnace, ladle, hot metal ladle, and hot metal pot.

[0057] Anchor hook 2 can be used not only for cleaning slag, but also for lifting multiple woven bags with lifting lugs and other occasions that require lifting multiple items with lifting lugs, with a wide range of applications.

[0058] Example 3

[0059] The shell is broken using impact cone 3. The assembly steps are as follows:

[0060] Step 1: Prepare two inverted L-shaped cranes, A and B, with wheeled, movable bases. Adjust the crane positions so that the distance between the ends of the booms is 10cm, then position the crane base trolley. Place cones 3-5 on the movable trolley for assembly.

[0061] Step 2: Use crane A to lift the base column 1 at the first lifting ring 1-1 and suspend it in the installation position;

[0062] Step 3: Assemble the second inlay strip 3-2 and the vertical arm 3-3 into one piece. Use crane B to lift the impact cone 3 at the third lifting ring 3-1. Operate crane B to rotate the horizontal arm so that the impact cone 3 gradually approaches the base column 1.

[0063] Step 4: The operator holds the impact cone 3 by hand or uses a thin steel pipe with a bend to assist in the operation, inserts the second inlay strip 3-2 of the impact cone 3 into the inlay seat 1-3 of the base column 1, and then operates the crane to lower the hook so that the second inlay strip 3-2 is fully inserted into the bottom of the inlay seat 1-3;

[0064] Step 5: Move the trolley with cone 3-5 to below the vertical arm 3-3, and make fine adjustments to align the positioning hole 3-7 at the bottom of the vertical arm 3-3 with the positioning hole 3-7 at the top cylinder 3-6 of the cone 3-5. Then, insert the two fixing pins 3-4 into the positioning holes 3-7 at the top and bottom of the vertical arm 3-3 respectively, so that the two vertical arms 3-3 are securely connected and the vertical arm 3-3 is securely connected to the cone 3-5. Finally, insert the positioning pin 3-8 into the end of the fixing pin 3-4 for positioning to prevent slippage and ensure safety during the working process.

[0065] Step 6: After installation, crane A lowers its hook to place the assembled lifting device in the tool storage area. Then, the crane hook lifts the device to break the crust. Before breaking the crust, cone 3-5 is hoisted above the crust container and left to heat for 5 minutes. Then, it is lowered and a layer of release agent is applied to the surface of cone 3-5 by dipping to prevent or minimize slag adhesion during breaking. During breaking, the lifting device is first lifted 1 meter by the crane hook, and then quickly lowered to impact cone 3 and the crust. Under the kinetic energy generated by the large weight of cone 3 and the large pressure of cone 3-5, the iron and slag crust on the molten iron ladle or the steel and slag crust on the steel ladle is broken.

[0066] When breaking the crust of the ladle, only one hole is needed to be broken, so only one or two impacts are needed, as long as the bottom blowing gas can escape through the liquid surface. If the slag crust needs to be broken into scattered pieces for the ladle to pour into the mixing furnace or iron ladle, multiple impacts are needed.
