Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nonferrous metal purification, in particular to a purification and processing furnace for nonferrous metals. Background Art
[0002] Nonferrous metals are generally divided into five categories according to their properties, uses, production and reserves in the earth's crust: nonferrous light metals, nonferrous heavy metals, precious metals, rare metals and semi-metals.
[0003] In the process of quenching and purifying metals, the different boiling points of two different metals in a vacuum are often used to separate the metals. For example, when separating zinc and copper metals, the boiling point of zinc is about 900 degrees, while the boiling point of copper is about 2560 degrees. At this time, the temperature value can be controlled to be much higher than the boiling point of zinc to achieve the effect of rapid vaporization and separation of zinc. However, when separating copper and aluminum metals, the boiling point of aluminum is about 2320 degrees, while the boiling point of copper is about 2560 degrees. The difference between the boiling points of the two is small. At this time, the temperature control requirements are high, and the fluidity of the molten metal is weak, which makes the separation time longer and consumes more energy. Furthermore, the metal after vaporization separation needs to be collected again by a cooling device, but impurities with lower boiling points in some alloys are often vaporized during the heating process, which makes the metal after cooling and collection contain other impurities, affecting the later metal purification treatment. Based on this, a purification and processing furnace for non-ferrous metals is proposed. Summary of the invention

For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0031] Example, see Figures 1 to 6 A non-ferrous metal purification and processing furnace comprises a refining furnace body 2 mounted on a placement seat 1, a furnace opening is provided on one side of the refining furnace body 2, and a sealed furnace door 26 is connected to the side wall of the furnace opening by a hinge. The furnace opening is provided to facilitate the removal of a metal smelting furnace pool 3 from the refining furnace body 2, thereby facilitating subsequent molten liquid collection and feeding processing.
[0032] The refining furnace body 2 is externally connected to two sets of gaseous material cooling devices. An annular gas hood 11 is arranged on the top of the refining furnace body 2. A metal purification gas pipe 12 is arranged on the annular gas hood 11. The two sets of gaseous material cooling devices are respectively connected to the impurity removal gas pipe 9 and the metal purification gas pipe 12.
[0033] It should be noted that the vapor substance cooling device is a cooling system, which is a commonly used device in industrial production. In this scheme, it plays the role of absorbing and cooling different substances at different vaporization temperatures. It is a prior art and will not be described in detail here and is not shown in the figure.
[0034] A metal smelting furnace pool 3 is arranged inside the refining furnace body 2, a smelting inner furnace body 4 is arranged inside the refining furnace body 2, and an electric heating device 5 is arranged at the bottom of the smelting inner furnace body 4. The electric heating device 5 is a prior art and is used to smelt the metal below. The heat of the electric heating device 5 can act on the metal smelting furnace pool 3 through the smelting inner furnace body 4, thereby realizing continuous heating of the metal in the metal smelting furnace pool 3 and ensuring the state of the molten metal.
[0035] A plurality of overflow ports 6 are provided on the smelting inner furnace body 4, and a sealing plug-in 7 is provided on the overflow port 6. Furthermore, a sealing slot is provided on the inner wall of the overflow port 6, and a sealing rib 13 adapted to the sealing slot is provided on the side wall of the sealing plug-in 7, and a force-bearing removal plate 14 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the sealing plug-in 7.
[0036] It should be noted that the depth of the overflow port 6 arranged thereon decreases successively, and the sealing plug-in 7 arranged therewith is adapted successively to the different depths of the overflow port 6. The sealing plug-in 7 is located in the overflow port 6, and can realize the closure of the overflow port 6. When it is opened, it can realize the layer-by-layer outflow of the molten metal, realize the concentrated heating of the molten metal layer by layer, accelerate the vaporization of the internal metal, and significantly improve the purification efficiency.
[0037] A refining heating ring 8 is connected above the refining furnace body 2 through a lifting and adjusting device, an electromagnetic induction heating coil is arranged inside the refining heating ring 8, and the refining heating ring 8 is sleeved on the smelting inner furnace body 4;
[0038] The inner furnace body 4 of the smelting furnace can be electromagnetically inductively heated by the electromagnetic induction heating coil arranged in the refining heating ring 8, so that the molten metal located at the upper part can be centrally heated by the refining heating ring 8, which is beneficial to the temperature control and the rapid and effective vaporization of the impurity metal, so as to achieve the purpose of refining and purifying the metal, and a part of the molten metal that can be acted upon by electromagnetic induction can directly receive energy and quickly heat up.
[0039] Furthermore, the lifting and adjusting device includes two groups of lifting hydraulic cylinders 15 arranged on the refining furnace body 2, and the side wall of the refining heating ring 8 is fixedly connected with a lifting bearing seat 16. The output end of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 15 penetrates into the refining furnace body 2 and is fixedly connected to the lifting bearing seat 16.
[0040] The height of the refining heating ring 8 can be adjusted by the lifting hydraulic cylinder 15 arranged on the refining furnace body 2, so that the metal melt can be heated layer by layer.
[0041] The refining heating ring 8 is connected to the sealing plug 7 by rotating the controllable part, and is used to control the opening of the overflow port 6;
[0042] Furthermore, the rotatable controllable component includes a rotatable lifting gear ring 17 rotatably arranged on the refining heating ring 8 , a lifting pad is arranged on the inner side wall of the rotatable lifting gear ring 17 , and an arc-shaped pressing member 18 for pressing the force-bearing removal plate 14 is arranged on the lifting pad.
[0043] It is worth noting that in the process of rotating the lifting gear ring 17, the arc-shaped pressure piece 18 arranged thereon will be driven to rotate. When the arc-shaped pressure piece 18 rotates to the sealing plug-in 7, the arc-shaped pressure piece 18 will generate a force with the force-bearing removal plate 14, and gradually lift the force-bearing removal plate 14, so that the sealing plug-in 7 that seals the overflow port 6 is moved upward, thereby allowing the metal that has been concentratedly heated, purified and refined to flow downward into the metal smelting furnace pool 3.
[0044] An adjusting motor 19 is arranged on the top of the refining furnace body 2, and a vertical meshing gear cylinder 20 is fixedly connected to the output end of the adjusting motor 19, and the vertical meshing gear cylinder 20 is meshingly connected with the rotating lifting gear ring 17. Through the setting of the adjusting motor 19, the vertical meshing gear cylinder 20 can drive the rotating lifting gear ring 17 to rotate, thereby realizing the control of opening the overflow ports 6 one by one.
[0045] A degassing pipe 9 is provided at the center of the top of the refining furnace body 2, and the degassing pipe 9 is connected to a gas collecting hood 10 adapted to the smelting inner furnace body 4. One end of the degassing pipe 9 is a telescopic pipe structure, which can meet the up and down movement of the gas collecting hood 10. An airflow blocking member is provided in the gas collecting hood 10. Furthermore, a gas collecting control hydraulic cylinder 21 is provided on the top of the refining furnace body 2, and the output end of the gas collecting control hydraulic cylinder 21 is connected to the gas collecting hood 10 through a bearing ring 22;
[0046] The airflow blocking member includes an outer sealing ring 23 fixedly arranged on the bottom of the gas collecting hood 10, and an inner sealing disk 24 matched with the outer sealing ring 23 is arranged inside the gas collecting hood 10. The inner sealing disk 24 is connected to the top side wall of the refining furnace body 2 through a connecting column 25 that penetrates the gas collecting hood 10. When the gas collecting hood 10 is controlled to retract and reset to the upper side by the gas collecting control hydraulic cylinder 21, the inner sealing disk 24 and the outer sealing ring 23 are at the same height, which can achieve sealing of the gas collecting hood 10, thereby ensuring that subsequent gas can be absorbed and discharged through the annular gas hood 11.
[0047] It is worth noting that this scheme is aimed at removing low-boiling-point metals from high-boiling-point non-ferrous metals. The low-boiling-point metals are vaporized by high temperature to achieve the effect of purifying high-boiling-point metals.
[0048] When the present invention performs refining and purification processing on non-ferrous metals, the non-ferrous metals to be purified are placed in the smelting inner furnace body 4, the metal smelting furnace pool 3 and the smelting inner furnace body 4 are moved from the furnace mouth into the refining furnace body 2, and the electric heating device 5 in the smelting inner furnace body 4 is controlled to heat the non-ferrous metals. During the heating process, the gas collecting hood 10 is driven to move downward by the gas collecting control hydraulic cylinder 21 to seal the smelting inner furnace body 4. At this time, during the heating process, the waste gas and some vaporized metal impurities generated will be concentratedly absorbed and discharged to the outside through the impurity removal pipe 9 connected to the gas collecting hood 10;
[0049] When the metal is completely melted into molten metal, the gas collecting hood 10 is driven to reset upwards by the gas collecting control hydraulic cylinder 21, and the gas collecting hood 10 is closed under the action of the inner sealing disk 24; the lifting hydraulic cylinder 15 is controlled to drive the refining heating ring 8 originally located at the top to move downward, and the refining heating ring 8 moves down to the molten metal at the top layer. At this time, the electromagnetic induction heating coil in the refining heating ring 8 is powered to realize centralized heating of the molten metal located at the upper layer of the smelting furnace body 4. The refining heating ring 8 equipped with the electromagnetic induction heating coil can accurately control the heating temperature, vaporize the impurity metal in stages, and the vaporized impurity metal is transported outward through the annular gas hood 11;
[0050] After the centralized heating of the molten metal is completed, the vertical meshing gear cylinder 20 is driven to rotate by adjusting the motor 19. During the rotation process, the rotation of the rotating lifting gear ring 17 on the refining heating ring 8 is realized, so that the sealing plug 7 is moved upward through the arc-shaped pressing piece 18, and the overflow port 6 is opened to quickly discharge the centralized heated molten metal. The above actions are repeated to realize centralized heating of the molten metal layer by layer, which significantly reduces the refining and purification time of the metal;
[0051] The discharged molten metal is in the metal smelting furnace pool 3, and the electric heating device 5 arranged in the smelting furnace body 4 will continue to heat the molten metal and vaporize the residual impurity metal, so as to achieve the rapid and effective purification and refining of non-ferrous metals, significantly improve the efficiency, and greatly reduce the electric energy required for refining non-ferrous metals, so as to achieve the effect of improving energy, reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
[0052] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
