Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of blast furnace ironmaking, in particular to an adaptively controlled air suction hood. Background Art

[0002] The blast furnace tapping area is one of the main sources of pollution in an ironmaking plant. Slag and iron flow from the tapping hole and through the slag ditch, generating dust. Each ton of iron produced emits approximately 2.5 kg of dust. To improve working conditions in the tapping area and prevent dust pollution from the surrounding environment, a dust removal system is typically installed. Dust generated during blast furnace tapping is collected by the fan through the top suction hood and side suction ports. It then flows through ducts into a dust collector for filtration. The purified air is then discharged into the atmosphere through the fan and exhaust stack.

[0003] To prevent dust from escaping and improve dust collection, a large sealed enclosure is typically built around the blast furnace taphole, with a suction hood mounted on top to collect the dust. However, dust generation during the blast furnace tapping process is discontinuous and unstable, and top-mounted suction hoods have poor adaptability to fluctuating dust levels. This can lead to insufficient suction power and dust escape during high dust levels, and excessive suction and energy consumption during low dust levels. Therefore, measures are urgently needed to improve the suction hood's adaptability to fluctuating dust levels. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, an adaptively controlled air suction hood includes an air suction hood 1, a lifting mechanism for driving the air suction hood 1 to rise and fall, and telescopic plates 2 arranged on the four sides of the air suction hood 1, and adjacent telescopic plates 2 are connected by flexible rubber skins 3; in the initial state of the air suction hood, there is an obvious vortex under the air suction hood. On the one hand, the vortex will cause flow instability and increase the operating resistance of the system. On the other hand, it will affect the dragging and suction effect of the main airflow on dust. When the dust carried by the vortex moves to the air leakage point in the dust collection area, a "dust emission" phenomenon will occur, and a large amount of dust will escape into the production space. At this time, the air volume has to be increased to increase the dust collection effect of the main airflow, and the operating power consumption increases. After the air suction hood is extended, as the extension length increases, the vortex intensity in the dust collection area decreases significantly. The dust collecting hood extending downward hinders the formation of the central vortex to a certain extent, effectively improving the dust collection effect of the dust collecting hood and reducing operating energy consumption.

[0027] The smoke sensor installed at the air inlet of the suction hood monitors the changes in the smoke concentration at the air inlet in real time, and the monitoring data is synchronously transmitted to the predictive control model of the automatic control system; the predictive control model determines the control strategy according to the smoke concentration. According to the control strategy, the automatic control system adjusts the retractable hood to the appropriate height through the lifting mechanism, and controls the retractable hood to extend to the appropriate length; then the automatic control system controls the air volume of the variable frequency fan through the frequency converter.

[0028] When the telescopic plates 2 are extended, the gaps between adjacent telescopic plates 2 are sealed by the rubber skins 3 .

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the lifting mechanism includes a first bracket 4, a first lifting frame 5 arranged in the first bracket 4 and lifted and lowered in the first bracket 4, the suction hood 1 is installed on the first lifting frame 5, and the telescopic plate 2 is extended and retracted under the action of the linkage mechanism when the first lifting frame 5 is lifted and lowered; when the smoke concentration is large, the first lifting frame 5 drives the suction hood 1 to descend, and at the same time, the telescopic plate 2 is extended under the action of the linkage mechanism, as the extension length increases, the vortex intensity in the dust collecting area decreases significantly, and the dust collecting hood extending downward hinders the formation of the central vortex to a certain extent, effectively improving the dust collection effect of the dust collecting hood and reducing the operating energy consumption.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the linkage mechanism includes a second bracket 7, a second lifting frame 8 arranged in the second bracket 7 and lifted and lowered in the second bracket 7, and a fixed plate 9 arranged on the second lifting frame 8. The lower end of the fixed plate 9 is provided with a slide groove 10, and the outer side of the telescopic plate 2 is provided with a support rod 11. The upper end of the support rod 11 is provided with a driving wheel 12 that cooperates with the slide groove 10. A connecting mechanism connecting the first lifting frame 5 and the second lifting frame 8 is provided on the second bracket 7; when the second lifting frame 8 descends, the telescopic plate 2 extends downward under the action of the slide groove 10 and the driving wheel 12, and the slide groove 10 and the driving wheel 12 are provided to prevent locking.

[0031] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connecting mechanism includes synchronous pulleys 13 arranged in parallel on the second bracket 7 and a synchronous belt 14 connecting the two synchronous pulleys 13. The synchronous belt 14 is connected to the guide sleeve of the second lifting frame 8. The second bracket 7 is equipped with a motor to drive the synchronous pulleys to rotate. The rotating shaft of the synchronous pulley 13 at the lower end is equipped with a gear 15. The first lifting frame 5 is equipped with a rack 16 that meshes with the gear 15. When the first lifting frame 5 descends, the lower synchronous pulley 13 rotates under the action of the gear rack, driving the synchronous belt 14 to operate, thereby driving the second lifting frame 8 to descend. The diameter of the lower synchronous pulley 13 is larger than that of the upper synchronous pulley 13, ensuring that the distance the first lifting frame 5 descends is less than the distance the second lifting frame 8 descends. That is, as the suction hood 1 descends, the telescopic plate can be extended.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, first guide sleeves 6 are provided on both sides of the first lifting frame 5 to cooperate with the columns of the first bracket 4.

[0033] like Figure 3As shown, lifting hydraulic cylinders 17 for driving the first lifting frame 5 are provided on both sides of the first bracket 4 .

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, cross beams 18 are provided on both sides of the first bracket 4 , the cylinder end of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 17 is connected to the cross beam 18 , and the piston rod end of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 17 is connected to the first lifting frame 5 .

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, second guide sleeves 20 are provided on both sides of the second lifting frame 8 to cooperate with the columns of the second bracket 7.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, mounting plates 21 are provided on both sides of the second bracket 7 , and the synchronous pulley 13 is mounted on the mounting plates 21 .
