[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of steel cooling equipment, and particularly relates to a quenching machine cooling device. Background Art
[0002] During the quenching process of steel plates, a quenching machine cooling device is used to achieve synchronous and uniform cooling. The cooling uniformity of the steel plate directly affects the microstructure properties and flatness quality of the steel plate. As an important component of the quenching machine cooling device, the slit nozzle is mainly characterized in that the water flow ejected from it is in a slit shape, which can precisely control the distribution of cooling water, enabling the cooling medium to be continuously distributed along the width direction of the slit without jet breakpoints, achieving a uniform and high-intensity cooling effect. Therefore, its design directly affects the quenching effect and the properties of metal materials. However, the traditional quenching machine slit nozzle has obvious deficiencies in cooling uniformity and stability, and cannot meet the requirements of high-precision quenching processes. Therefore, the present invention designs a quenching machine cooling device, which realizes uniform cooling of the steel plate by structurally designing and parameter optimizing the steady flow section and the slit nozzle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0029] For the convenience of understanding the technical solution, the present invention provides the following embodiments.
[0030] As shown Figure 1 in the figure, this embodiment provides a quenching machine cooling device, which mainly includes a water inlet 1, a connecting plate 4, a spray box 2, a steady flow cavity 3 and a slit water outlet. The overall material is made of 304 stainless steel.
[0031] Among them, the spray box 2 is a horizontally arranged cylindrical structure with closed ends at both ends, with a diameter of 159 mm, a wall thickness of 4.5 mm, and a length of 1800 mm. An inlet 1 is connected to the barrel wall on the upper surface thereof through a mounting flange, and the inlet 1 is communicated with the spray box 2. According to the design requirements, a total of two inlets are designed, and the distance between the two inlets is 700 mm.
[0032] As shown Figure 2 and Figure 3 in the figure, a number of through holes 5 with the same diameter and arranged at equal intervals are provided on the barrel wall of the lower surface of the spray box 2 along the length direction of the spray box 2. Water flows into the cavity from the inlet 1, and the water flow is evenly distributed through the through holes 5 on the spray box, playing a damping role to avoid the concentration of water flow and generating a water hammer phenomenon.
[0033] As shown Figure 4 in the figure, the steady flow cavity 3 is a funnel-shaped chamber composed of a first arc plate 6 and a second arc plate 8. The first arc plate 6 and the second arc plate 8 are both made of heat-resistant steel plates, and have the same structural dimensions. The radius of the circles where the two arcs are located is 110 mm, and the wall thickness of the two arc plates is 4 mm. The two are symmetrically connected to the bottom of the spray box 2 to form a funnel-shaped flow channel for stabilizing the flow rate. The connection points of the two arc plates and the spray box are the tangent points between the arc plates and the circular barrel wall of the spray box, and the central angle formed by connecting the centers of the spray box with the two tangent points is 60°.
[0034] As shown Figure 4 and Figure 5 in the figure, the slit water outlet includes a first plate-like structure 7, a second plate-like structure 9 and a replacement plate 10, all of which are made of heat-resistant steel plates.
[0035] The first plate-like structure 7 is a structure with an L-shaped cross-section composed of a first vertical plate 13 and a first horizontal plate 14, and the L-shaped bending part is rounded. The first vertical plate 13 is vertically arranged and connected to the end of the first arc plate 6, and the connection point is the tangent point of the first arc plate 6. The included angle between the first vertical plate 13 and the first horizontal plate 14 is 110°, the length ratio of the first vertical plate 13 to the first horizontal plate 14 is 2:1, and a long groove is provided on the upper surface of the first horizontal plate 14 along the length direction.
[0036] The second plate-like structure 9 is composed of a second vertical plate 15 and an inclined plate 16. Among them, the second vertical plate 15 is vertically arranged, and its upper end is connected to the end of the second arc plate 8, and the connection point is the tangent point of the second arc plate 8; the distance from the end of the inclined plate 16 to the bending position of the first plate-like structure 7 is 15 mm; a limiting groove is arranged along the length direction on the back surface of the inclined plate 16; the included angle between the second vertical plate 15 and the inclined plate 16 is 145°; the ratio of the plate length of the second vertical plate 15 to the inclined plate 16 is 1.5:1.
[0037] The replacement plate 10 is a plate-like structure with an L-shaped cross-section composed of a third vertical plate 17 and a second horizontal plate 18. The third vertical plate 17 is fitted and installed in the limiting groove on the back surface of the inclined plate of the second plate-like structure 9 through bolts 11. A water outlet gap with a height of 1 mm is formed between the lower surface of the second horizontal plate 18 and the long groove of the first horizontal plate 14. Water flows out continuously along the width direction of the water outlet gap, forming an included angle of 20° with the horizontal plane where the steel plate runs, so as to achieve the effect of uniformly cooling the steel plate. The replacement plate 10 can be disassembled, cleaned and replaced to prevent blockage.
[0038] As Figure 6 shown, it is the flow field distribution diagram of the traditional method. The traditional pipeline layout is that the main pipeline is connected with branch pipelines for each branch below for flow distribution design, which is easy to cause the water flow in the middle area to be dense and generate water hammer phenomenon, and the water supply in the edge parts on both sides is also prone to be insufficient; as Figure 7 shown, the structure designed by the present invention significantly improves this phenomenon.
[0039] As Figure 8 shown, the spray box of the traditional method has a slow response and large water flow fluctuations, and the deviation value of the average flow velocity is ±4.8%; as Figure 9 shown, in this embodiment, the spray box has a fast response, small water flow fluctuations, and the deviation value of the average flow velocity is within ±3.0%.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
