Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgical continuous casting, in particular to a method for efficiently, continuously and accurately controlling continuous casting mold slag. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the continuous casting process in the metallurgical industry generally adopts the mold slag pouring mode. The mold slag is a crucial step in the mold slag pouring process. The physical and chemical properties of the mold slag and the amount added are closely related to the quality of the continuous casting billets. Excessive mold slag addition will cause a thick sintering layer on the molten steel surface. Excessive mold slag addition will result in an insufficient slag layer thickness on the molten steel surface, which is prone to defects such as slag curling.

[0003] After years of development and continuous improvements by metallurgical industry researchers, mold slag addition has evolved from primitive manual addition to the currently common continuous control method (motor rotation). This method is inefficient and cannot meet actual production needs. Existing technology uses mechanical equipment to weigh continuous casting mold slag, requiring manual monitoring. This process is complex and lacks precision in automatic weighing. Furthermore, errors are inevitable during continuous weighing of continuous casting mold slag.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop an efficient, continuous and high-precision control method for continuous casting mold slag. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to address the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art and to provide a method for efficient, continuous and high-precision control of continuous casting protective slag. The material is slowly dropped and transported to the channel steel through a feeding mechanism, and is weighed in real time inside the V-shaped trough in conjunction with a first weight sensor to obtain the material quantity required for multiple precise material removals. The material is then stopped and then a second precise weighing is performed. The channel steel is tilted and vibrated in conjunction with a vibration motor and a spring member. Under the action of the necking structure, the material is slowly shaken off onto the weighing plate. After the precise weighing is completed, the blocking part is controlled to close the output port and the vibration motor is turned off at the same time to achieve precise control of the material weighing. The weighing plate is then tilted and the material is removed in conjunction with the pushing assembly. The weighing operation is cyclically performed to achieve efficient, continuous and high-precision control of the continuous casting protective slag and solve the problems raised in the background technology.

[0054] A hopper 1 is loaded with continuous casting mold slag, and a feeding mechanism 2 is installed inside the hopper 1 for discharging the continuous casting mold slag;

[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the feeding mechanism 2 in the present invention:

[0056] The feeding mechanism 2 includes a spiral auger 201. A plurality of support rods 202 are installed in a circumferential distribution inside the hopper 1. A sealing box 203 is commonly connected between the plurality of support rods 202. The top of the spiral auger 201 passes through the sealing box 203 and is rotatably connected to the through hole. The bottom end of the spiral auger 201 extends from the output port of the hopper 1 to the outside thereof. A first drive motor 204 is fixed to the outer wall of the hopper 1. The output shaft of the first drive motor 204 drives the spiral auger 201 through the steering gear 205. The output shaft of the first drive motor 204 drives the spiral auger 201 through the steering gear 205. The continuous casting protection slag is stirred by the spiral auger 201, and the material is evenly conveyed, which facilitates the precise control of the discharge amount.

[0057] This structure can prevent the transmission structure of the spiral auger 201 from being affected by the material, thereby improving the working stability of the device and extending the service life of the device.

[0058] The first weighing mechanism 3 is located below the hopper 1 and is used to receive the continuous casting mold slag output by the hopper 1 and cooperate with the built-in first weight sensor 305 to perform preliminary weighing of the continuous casting mold slag. The output end of the bearing surface of the first weighing mechanism 3 is provided with a blocking portion 4;

[0059] As a preferred embodiment of the first weighing mechanism 3 in the present invention:

[0060] The first weighing mechanism 3 includes a channel steel 301, a first hydraulic cylinder 302, and two second hydraulic cylinders 303.

The first hydraulic cylinder 302 and the second hydraulic cylinder 303 are both powered by a hydraulic mechanism 307.

[0061] Multiple first weight sensors 305 are used to evenly distribute the load and weigh it simultaneously, and the weight change of the load is calculated. When the weight before vibration unloading (data is updated in real time with each unloading) - current weight = target setting addition amount, vibration is stopped;

[0062] The output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 302 is hinged to the spring member 304 located at the front end of the bottom wall of the channel steel 301, and the other end is fixed to the vehicle body 6. The output ends of the two second hydraulic cylinders 303 are respectively hinged to the two spring members 304 located at the rear end of the bottom wall of the channel steel 301, and the other ends are hinged to the vehicle body 6 through hinges.

[0063] Specifically, the channel steel 301 is configured as a pocket-shaped structure, and a V-shaped trough 308 is provided on the top of the channel steel 301, serving as the bearing surface of the first weighing mechanism 3. One end of the V-shaped trough 308 penetrates the side wall of the channel steel 301, and one end of the V-shaped trough 308 penetrating the side wall of the channel steel 301 is configured as a constricted structure. A fence plate 309 is provided on the top of the channel steel 301 and outside the V-shaped trough 308.

[0064] The vibration motor 306 cooperates with the spring member 304 to vibrate the channel steel 301. The vibration amplitude and frequency of the vibration motor 306 can be adjusted to suit mold slag and steel grades with different physical and chemical properties. This allows the material in the V-shaped trough 308 to be slowly shaken out. The inclination of the channel steel 301 is adjusted according to the particle size of the continuous casting mold slag and the work efficiency requirements, thereby realizing the control of the continuous casting mold slag discharge speed.

[0065] As a preferred embodiment of the barrier portion 4 in the present invention:

[0066] The blocking portion 4 includes two retaining walls 401, which are axially symmetrically distributed on the outer sides of the ends of the V-shaped trough 308 and are used to block the shrinkage structure. The front end of the channel steel 301 and the parts on both sides of the V-shaped trough 308 are rotatably connected to the shaft 402, and the two retaining walls 401 are respectively fixed on the two shafts 402. The tops of the two shafts 402 are respectively provided with mutually meshing flat gears 403. The bottom end of the channel steel 301 is fixedly connected to the second drive motor 404, and the output shaft of the second drive motor 404 is transmission-connected to one of the shafts 402;

[0067] The second weighing mechanism 5 is located below the output end of the first weighing mechanism 3 and is used to receive the continuous casting mold slag output by the first weighing mechanism 3 and cooperate with the built-in second weight sensor 503 to accurately weigh the continuous casting mold slag;

[0068] As a preferred embodiment of the second weighing mechanism 5 in the present invention:

[0069] The front end of the vehicle body 6 is towed with a mounting frame 505, and the end of the carrying plate 502 is hinged to the mounting frame 505 by a hinge, and the carrying plate 502 is initially placed flat on the top of the mounting frame 505; a first electric push rod 506 is provided between the carrying plate 502 and the mounting frame 505, and the two ends of the first electric push rod 506 are respectively hinged to the carrying plate 502 and the mounting frame 505, and the two side walls of the carrying plate 502 are fixedly connected to the sliding rails 507, and the sliding rails 507 are slidably connected to the sliders 508, and the bottom end of the slider 508 is integrally provided with an arc-shaped sliding groove piece 509, and the top of both sides of the mounting frame 505 is threadedly connected with a limit pin 510, and the limit pin 510 is slidably matched with the arc-shaped sliding groove piece 509;

[0070] The second weighing mechanism 5 includes a weighing plate 501, which serves as the bearing surface of the second weighing mechanism 5. A supporting plate 502 is arranged below the weighing plate 501 and is distributed in parallel. A second weight sensor 503 is located between the weighing plate 501 and the supporting plate 502. A pocket plate 504 is installed on the supporting plate 502 and extends to the top of the weighing plate 501. The side wall of the pocket plate 504 is slidably connected to the side wall of the weighing plate 501.

[0071] The weighing plate 501 is kept horizontal when receiving the material, and real-time weighing is performed at this time. After the weighing is completed, the first electric push rod 506 is controlled to tilt the weighing plate 501 to gather the material and then remove the material;

[0072] The bearing surfaces of the first weighing mechanism 3 and the second weighing mechanism 5 are both configured as movable structures, so that the bearing surfaces can be tilted, so that the continuous casting mold slag weighed by the first weighing mechanism 3 and the second weighing mechanism 5 can be output in a directionally controlled manner;

[0073] The continuous control device also includes a touch screen display 8, the connection end of the touch screen display 8 is electrically connected to the single-chip microcomputer 9, the input end and output end of the single-chip microcomputer 9 are electrically connected to the A / D converter and the D / A converter respectively, and the first weight sensor 305 and the second weight sensor 503 are both electrically connected to the A / D converter, and the first drive motor 204, the second drive motor 404, the vibration motor 306, the hydraulic mechanism 307, the first electric push rod 506 and the second electric push rod 702 are all electrically connected to the D / A converter;

[0074] The continuous control method of continuous casting mold slag is as follows:

[0075] S1. Supplementing materials: injecting continuous casting mold slag into the hopper 1 of the continuous control device;

[0076] S2. Preliminary weighing: Place the channel steel 301 horizontally, start the feeding mechanism 2, and send a command through the single-chip microcomputer 9 to control the first drive motor 204 to work, so that its output shaft drives the spiral auger 201 through the steering gear 205, and the continuous casting protection slag is evenly transported, so that the material in the hopper 1 falls at a uniform speed and falls on the horizontally placed channel steel 301, specifically, falls inside the V-shaped trough 308. During this process, multiple first weight sensors 305 are used to monitor the weight change in real time. A weight value T1 is set in the program of the single-chip microcomputer 9 as needed. When it is monitored that the material in the V-shaped trough 308 reaches the set weight T1, the first drive motor 204 of the feeding mechanism 2 is controlled to stop working, and the material is stopped at this time. The material in the V-shaped trough 308 meets the requirement of being able to take out the material accurately multiple times;

[0077] S3. Precise weighing: Place the weighing plate 501 horizontally, and send a command through the single-chip microcomputer 9 to control the first hydraulic cylinder 302 and the second hydraulic cylinder 303 to work, so that the channel steel 301 slowly tilts, and the output end of the V-shaped trough 308 is located directly above the weighing plate 501, and the end of the V-shaped trough 308 is kept unobstructed. Send a command to control the vibration motor 306 to work, and the vibration motor 306 cooperates with the spring member 304 to make the channel steel 301 vibrate. Under the action of the necking structure, the material in the V-shaped trough 308 is slowly shaken off and falls onto the weighing plate 501;

[0078] The second weight sensor 503 accurately weighs the continuous casting mold slag on the weighing plate 501, and sets a weight value T2 in the program of the single chip computer 9 as needed, wherein T1 ≥ T2, and T1 is an integer multiple of T2;

[0079] When it is detected that the material on the weighing plate 501 reaches the set weight T2, the vibration motor 306 is turned off, and the second drive motor 404 is controlled to work at the same time. The output end transmission shaft 402, under the meshing action of the two flat gears 403, the two retaining walls 401 are driven to retract synchronously inward to close the output port of the V-shaped trough 308, thereby preventing the material from continuing to fall and causing errors, thereby achieving precise control of material weighing. Subsequently, the inclination angle of the bearing surface of the first weighing mechanism 3 is controlled to decrease until it is horizontal.

[0080] S4, material collection: control the first electric push rod 506 to tilt the weighing plate 501, so that the material slides to the side of the weighing plate 501 and is blocked by the pocket plate 504, the material is gathered, and then the material is removed;

[0081] Specifically, the pushing assembly 7 is used to push the weighed material down, and a second electric push rod 702 is fixedly connected to one side of the carrying plate 502 through a clamping sleeve 701, and the output end of the second electric push rod 702 is transmission-connected to a scraper 703, and the two side walls of the scraper 703 are respectively slidably matched with the pocket plate 504 and the carrying plate 502, and in the initial state, the scraper 703 is not in contact with the pocket plate 504 and the weighing plate 501; during weighing, the pocket plate 504 and the scraper 703 will not affect the accurate measurement of the second weight sensor 503; the output end of the second electric push rod 702 is controlled to extend, and the scraper 703 is pushed to push off the accurately weighed continuous casting protective slag on the weighing plate 501, and the pushed-off material is collected;

[0082] S5, continuous operation: the weighing plate 501 is controlled to return to its initial state (i.e., horizontal state). Since the material in the V-shaped trough 308 meets the requirements of multiple accurate material removal, the channel steel 301 is directly tilted again, and then the blocking part 4 is controlled to open, and the vibration motor 306 is controlled to operate at the same time; according to the amount of material on the bearing surface of the first weighing mechanism 3, S2-S5 or S3-S5 are repeated, and the material in the hopper 1 is replenished when it is insufficient;
