The meaning of "a plurality" is two or more unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0025] In the description, claims and attached drawing descriptions of the present invention, when an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "mounted on" or "disposed on" or "connected to" another element, it may be directly or indirectly located on the other element. For example, when an element is referred to as "connected to" another element, it may be directly or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0026] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0027] The first aspect of the embodiment of the present invention provides a locking device for an electric furnace tapping hole, as Figure 1 shown. The locking device for the electric furnace tapping hole includes: a rotating shaft 1, a lifting mechanism 2 arranged along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1, an elastic component 6 arranged at one end of the rotating shaft 1 close to the lifting mechanism 2, a rotating mechanism 3 connected to one side of the rotating shaft 1, and a tray assembly 4 connected to one side of the rotating shaft 1. Among them, the lifting mechanism 2 is used to apply a force to the rotating shaft 1 to make the rotating shaft 1 move downward. Among them, the elastic component 6 is used to be in a compressed state when the lifting mechanism applies a force to the rotating shaft. Among them, the rotating mechanism 3 is used to drive the rotating shaft 1 to rotate. Among them, the tray assembly 4 includes a tray 41, and the tray 41 is used to rotate under the drive of the rotating mechanism 3 to the lower part of the electric furnace tapping hole, and when the lifting mechanism 2 withdraws the force applied to the rotating shaft 1, it is driven by the elastic component 6 to press upward against the plugging component arranged at the electric furnace tapping hole.

[0028] Specifically, the electric furnace in the embodiment of the present invention can be an eccentric electric furnace or other electric furnaces, and no specific limitation is made here. The lifting mechanism 2 can be a device that provides linear up-and-down movement, for example, a single-acting oil cylinder, a linear displacement sensor and other devices, and no specific limitation is made here. The rotating mechanism 3 can be a device that provides a rotating function, for example, a rotating oil cylinder, an angular displacement sensor and other devices, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0029] Both the lifting mechanism 2 and the rotating mechanism 3 can be arranged on the side wall of the electric furnace.

[0030] For the locking device for the electric furnace tapping hole provided by the embodiment of the present invention, in the initial position (that is, the position when not working), the tray is located on one side of the electric furnace. In the working position, based on the downward ( Figure 1 the X direction shown in the figure) force applied by the lifting mechanism 2 to the rotating shaft 1, the rotating shaft 1 moves downward and compresses the elastic component 8 downward until the rotating shaft 1 stops moving and the elastic component 8 is in a compressed state. At this time, based on the rotating mechanism 3 driving the rotating shaft 1 to rotate, at this time, the tray assembly 4 arranged on the rotating shaft 1 rotates together. When the tray 41 of the tray assembly 4 rotates to the lower part of the electric furnace tapping hole and the positive projection of the tray 41 along the X direction completely covers the positive projection of the plugging component along the X direction, the rotating mechanism 3 stops rotating. At this time, based on the lifting mechanism 2, the force applied to the rotating shaft 1 can be withdrawn, and the elastic component 8 returns from the compressed state to the initial state. During the process of the elastic component 8 returning from the compressed state to the initial state, it drives the rotating shaft 1 to move upward (that is, the reverse direction of the X direction), and the tray moves upward together with the rotating shaft 1 until the tray presses against the plugging component arranged at the electric furnace tapping hole.

[0031] Through the solution of the present invention, the tray can be closely attached to the plugging component provided at the tapping hole of the electric furnace. In a vibrating environment, it can avoid the generation of gaps between the tray and the plugging component and the loosening of the plugging component, improve the operation rate of the electric furnace, and enhance the safety and reliability of the operation of the electric furnace.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the tray 41 of the tray assembly 4 of the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace may include a tray body 411 and a boss 412 provided on one side of the tray body 411. The boss 412 is correspondingly arranged with the plugging component.

[0033] Through this boss 412, the fitting effect between the tray and the plugging component is further improved, making the tray and the plugging component fit more closely.

[0034] The material of the tray 41 can be a metal material, such as a metal material like stainless steel, thereby improving the strength of the tray and the reliability and operation stability of the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace may further include: a pressing component 5 and a first fixing bracket 7. Among them, the pressing component 5, the elastic component 6, and the first fixing bracket 7 are sequentially arranged along the direction away from the lifting mechanism 2. Among them, the elastic component 6 is in contact with the pressing component 5 and the first fixing bracket 7 respectively. The pressing component 5 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 1, the first fixing bracket 7 is fixed on the side wall of the electric furnace, and the rotating shaft 1 passes through one end of the first fixing bracket 7 away from the side wall of the electric furnace.

[0036] The pressing component 5 is arranged at one end of the rotating shaft 1 close to the lifting mechanism 2, and its two end faces along the axial direction of the rotating shaft are in contact with the lifting mechanism 2 and the elastic component 6 respectively. Through this pressing component 5, the elastic component 6 can be pressed and the rotating shaft 1 can be protected, reducing the probability of deformation of the rotating shaft 1 and extending the service life of the rotating shaft 1 and the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace.

[0037] The connection method between the pressing component 5 and the rotating shaft 1 can be a detachable connection method, thereby improving the maintainability of the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace. In some examples, the pressing component and the rotating shaft can be connected by threads, but it is not limited thereto, and other detachable connection methods can also be used. In some examples, the pressing component 5 can be a Figure 1 shown pressing block. One end of the pressing block has a groove with an internal thread matching the rotating shaft 1, and the pressing component 5 can be connected to the rotating shaft 1 through this groove.

[0038] The materials of the pressing member 5 and the rotating shaft 1 can be metal materials, such as stainless steel and other metal materials, thereby improving the strength of the pressing member and the rotating shaft, as well as the reliability and operating stability of the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace.

[0039] When the lifting mechanism 2 applies a downward acting force on the elastic component 6, the elastic component 6 will deform, buffering the acting force of the lifting mechanism 2 on the shaft over time, causing the rotating shaft 1 to slowly descend, and further improving the service life of the rotating shaft 1 and the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace.

[0040] In some examples, the elastic component 6 can include one or more sets of disc springs 61. Each set of disc springs 61 can include two disc plates. The end face of the disc plate can be arc-shaped, and the two disc plates can be arranged oppositely to form a set of disc springs 61. The service life of the elastic component 6 can be increased by the disc springs with this structure, and the service life of the rotating shaft 1 and the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace can be further improved.

[0041] On the one hand, the first fixing bracket 7 provides support for the elastic component 6, and on the other hand, it can also properly fix the shaft in the axial and radial directions. Thus, not only the occupied space of the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace is saved, but also the excessive shaking amplitude of the shaft during movement can be avoided, enabling the tray to be accurately positioned on the plugging mechanism.

[0042] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the first fixing bracket 7 can include a first fixing seat 71 and a first engaging portion 72 connected to the first fixing seat 71. The first fixing seat 71 is connected to the side wall of the electric furnace, and the side of the first engaging portion 72 away from the first fixing seat has an arc-shaped groove 721. This arc-shaped groove 721 can be used to engage with the rotating shaft 1, and the size of the arc-shaped groove 721 corresponds to that of the rotating shaft 1 for passing through the rotating shaft 1.

[0043] The material of the first fixing bracket 7 can be metal materials, such as stainless steel and other metal materials, thereby improving the strength of the first fixing bracket, as well as the reliability and operating stability of the entire tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace.

[0044] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 shown, the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace can further include: a second fixing bracket 8 provided on the rotating shaft. The second fixing bracket 8 can include a second fixing seat and a second engaging portion connected to the second fixing seat. The second fixing seat is connected to the side wall of the electric furnace, and the side of the second engaging portion away from the second fixing seat has an arc-shaped groove for connecting the rotating shaft.

[0045] Specifically, the size and structure of the second fixing bracket 8 can be the same as those of the first fixing bracket 1. Through the second fixing bracket 8, the movement range of the rotating shaft 1 in its radial direction can be restricted, preventing excessive shaking during the movement of the shaft and enabling the tray to be accurately positioned on the plugging mechanism.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace may further include: a fixed shaft ear 9 provided on one side of the rotating shaft 1. The rotating mechanism 3 may be a rotating oil cylinder, and the rotating oil cylinder includes a connecting shaft 31 arranged along its axial direction, and the connecting shaft 31 is hinged to the fixed shaft ear 9.

[0047] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the fixed shaft ear 9 may include: a pin shaft 93, a first steel plate 91 and a second steel plate 92 connected to the rotating shaft 1. The connecting shaft 31 is movably connected between the first steel plate 91 and the second steel plate 92 through the pin shaft 93, and there is a gap between the connecting shaft 31 and the first steel plate 91 and / or the second steel plate 92.

[0048] Specifically, through holes for passing the pin shaft 93 are correspondingly provided on the first steel plate 91, the second steel plate 92 and the connecting shaft 31, and the pin shaft 93 passes through the through holes on the first steel plate 91, the connecting shaft 31 and the second steel plate 92 in sequence to hinge the pin shaft 93 to the first steel plate 91 and the second steel plate 92.

[0049] There is a certain gap between the connecting shaft 31 and the first steel plate 91 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft. There is also a certain gap between the connecting shaft 31 and the second steel plate 92 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft. Through the gap between the connecting shaft 31 and the first steel plate 91 and the gap between the connecting shaft 31 and the second steel plate 92, the rotating shaft 1 can affect the rotating mechanism 3 when moving downward with the lifting mechanism 2 or moving upward under the drive of the elastic component 6 to press the plugging component. In some examples, this gap can be greater than 1 cm, for example, 1.5 cm, 2 cm or 2.5 cm, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0050] In some examples, a first positioning pin and a second positioning pin are respectively provided at both ends of the pin shaft to keep the position of the pin shaft fixed. Specifically, the first positioning pin can be arranged at the position of the upper plane of the pin shaft 93 close to the first steel plate 91 (i.e., the plane of the first steel plate 91 facing the lifting mechanism 2), and the second positioning pin can be arranged at the position of the lower plane of the pin shaft 93 close to the second steel plate 92 (i.e., the plane of the second steel plate 92 away from the lifting mechanism 2).

[0051] In some examples, the first steel plate 91 and the second steel plate 92 can be connected to the rotating shaft 1 by welding, thereby improving the connection strength and reliability and making it not easy to crack between the steel plate and the rotating shaft.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present invention, the locking device for the tapping hole of the electric furnace may further include a rotating oil cylinder fixing support 10. The rotating oil cylinder can be connected to the side wall of the electric furnace through the rotating oil cylinder fixing support 10.

[0053] Specifically, the rotating oil cylinder fixing support 10 may include a mounting seat 101 and a connecting plate 102 connected to the mounting seat 101. The mounting seat 101 is connected to the side wall of the electric furnace, and one side of the connecting plate 102 away from the mounting seat 101 is connected to one end of the rotating oil cylinder away from its connecting shaft 31.

[0054] The materials of the mounting seat 101 and the connecting plate 102 may be metal materials, such as metal materials like stainless steel, thereby improving the strength of the rotating oil cylinder fixing support, as well as the reliability and operating stability of the entire locking device for the tapping hole of the electric furnace.

[0055] In some examples, the mounting seat 101 can be connected to the side wall of the electric furnace by welding, thereby improving the strength and reliability of the connection of the rotating oil cylinder fixing support, making it not easy to crack between the rotating oil cylinder fixing support and the side wall of the electric furnace, and ensuring that the rotating oil cylinder can operate stably for a long time.

[0056] In some examples, the connecting plate 102 and one end of the rotating oil cylinder away from its connecting shaft 31 can be connected by a pin shaft, thereby improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the tray assembly 41 may further include a tray support 42, and the tray 41 and the rotating shaft 1 are respectively connected to both ends of the tray support 42.

[0058] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the tray support 42 may include: a first connecting rod 421 and a second connecting rod 422. Wherein, one end of the first connecting rod 421 is connected to the rotating shaft 1, and the other end of the first connecting rod 421 is connected to the tray 41.

[0059] Wherein, the length of the second connecting rod 422 is less than that of the second connecting rod 421. One end of the second connecting rod 422 is connected to the rotating shaft 1, and the other end of the second connecting rod 422 is connected to the first connecting rod 421. And the first connecting rod 421, the second connecting rod 422 and the part of the rotating shaft connected between the first connecting rod 421 and the second connecting rod 422 form a triangle, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the tray support 42 and the rotating shaft 1.

[0060] In some examples, the materials of the first connecting rod 421 and the second connecting rod 422 may be metal materials, such as metal materials like stainless steel, thereby improving the strength of the tray support, as well as the reliability and operating stability of the entire locking device for the tapping hole of the electric furnace.

[0061] In some examples, the tray bracket 42 and the rotating shaft 1 can be connected by welding, thereby further improving the connection stability between the tray bracket 42 and the rotating shaft 1, and enhancing the operation stability and reliability of the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace.

[0062] In some examples, the first connecting rod 421 may include a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion connected end to end. One end of the first connecting portion away from the second connecting portion is connected to the rotating shaft 1, and one end of the second connecting portion away from the first connecting portion is connected to the tray.

[0063] In some examples, there may be a certain angle between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion of the first connecting rod 421, thereby reducing the rotation range of the rotating oil cylinder and saving the rotation space.

[0064] Specifically, the angle between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion may be greater than 90° and less than 180°. For example, the angle between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion may be 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, 140°, 150° or 160°.

[0065] In some examples, the second connecting rod 422 may be bar-shaped and used to assist in supporting the first connecting rod 421.

[0066] In some examples, to improve the connection reliability between the tray bracket 42 and the tray, the tray bracket 42 can be welded to the side of the tray 41 away from the lifting mechanism 2.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the lifting mechanism 2 can be a single-acting oil cylinder, and the single-acting oil cylinder can include a trunnion 21. The tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace may further include a first fixed support 11 and a second fixed support 12 disposed on both sides of the single-acting oil cylinder. The trunnion 21 passes through the first fixed support 11 and the second fixed support 12 respectively, and the first fixed support 11 and the second fixed support 12 are connected to the side wall of the electric furnace.

[0068] The following describes the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace provided by the embodiments of the present invention through specific examples. It should be understood that the following examples are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0069] As Figure 1 shown, the tapping hole locking device of the electric furnace includes a rotating shaft 1, a lifting mechanism 2 disposed above the rotating shaft 1, a pressing member 5, an elastic component 6, a first fixed bracket 7, a second fixed bracket 8, a fixed shaft ear 9 sequentially arranged along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1, a selection mechanism 3 connected to the rotating shaft 1 through the fixed shaft ear 9, and a tray assembly 4 disposed below the rotating mechanism 3 and connected to the rotating shaft 1.

[0070] Among them, the lifting mechanism 2 is a single-acting oil cylinder, and the rotating mechanism 3 is a rotating oil cylinder. The lifting mechanism 2 is connected to the side wall of the electric furnace through the first fixed support 11 and the second fixed support 12. The rotating mechanism 3 is connected to the side wall of the electric furnace through the rotating oil cylinder fixed support 10.

[0071] Among them, the elastic component 6 includes 3 groups of disc springs stacked in sequence along the axial direction of the rotating shaft.

[0072] Among them, the tray assembly 4 includes a tray 41 and a tray support 42. The tray 41 is connected to the rotating shaft 1 through the tray support 42. The tray 41 includes a tray body 411 and a boss 412 provided on one side of the tray body 411, and the boss 412 is arranged corresponding to the plugging component. The tray support 42 includes a first connecting rod 421 and a second connecting rod 422. The length of the second connecting rod 422 is less than that of the second connecting rod 421. The part where the first connecting rod 421, the second connecting rod 422 and the rotating shaft 1 are interconnected forms a triangle. The first connecting rod 421 includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion connected end to end, and there is an included angle of 120° between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion.

[0073] For the above-mentioned electric furnace tapping hole locking device, in the initial position, the tray assembly 4 is located on one side of the electric furnace, and the rotating shaft 1 compresses the 3 groups of stacked disc springs under the action of the lifting mechanism 2. During operation, based on the lifting mechanism 2 applying a downward force to the rotating shaft 1, the rotating shaft 6 drives the tray 41 and the tray support 42 of the tray assembly 4 to move downward, and the 3 groups of disc springs are compressed downward under the action of the force applied by the lifting mechanism 2. When the rotating mechanism 3 drives the rotating shaft 1 and the tray 41 to rotate to below the tapping hole, the lifting mechanism 2 releases the piston rod, and the 3 groups of compressed disc springs reset. During the reset process of the 3 groups of disc springs, the rotating shaft 6 is driven to move upward, and the tray 10 moves upward with the rotating shaft 6 to tightly press the plugging component for plugging the tapping hole. Through the above-mentioned electric furnace tapping hole locking device, the tray can be closely attached to the plugging component provided at the tapping hole of the electric furnace. In a vibrating environment, it can avoid the generation of gaps between the tray and the plugging component and the loosening of the plugging component, improve the operation rate of the electric furnace, and improve the safety and reliability of the operation of the electric furnace.
