DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0021] See also Figure 1-5 , the present invention provides an energy-saving continuous casting workstation, comprising a continuous casting platform 1; An oxygen-free casting machine 2, the oxygen-free casting machine 2 being fixedly arranged on the continuous casting platform 1; A turntable 3, the turntable 3 is rotatably arranged on the continuous casting platform 1, and a refining device 30 is arranged on the turntable 3; It also includes a feeding trolley 4, which is movably arranged between the oxygen-free casting machine 2 and the turntable 3 and is used to transport the holding furnace 40 arranged on the top of the feeding trolley to the oxygen-free casting machine 2; A flow trough 5, wherein the flow trough 5 is provided between the turntable 3 and the holding furnace 40; The dumping device 6 includes a base 60, a support portion 61 arranged on the base 60, and a telescopic hydraulic cylinder 62 arranged on one side of the base 60. A dumping furnace 63 for melting the charge is rotatably provided on the top of the support portion 61. Three dumping devices 6 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the turntable 3. When the dumping device 6 rotates with the turntable 3 to a position corresponding to the horizontal position of the flow channel 5, the dumping furnace 63 is lifted upward by the telescopic hydraulic cylinder 62, thereby driving the dumping furnace 63 to dump toward the flow channel 5, and the charge inside the dumping furnace 63 flows downward into the flow channel 5.
[0022] In the above structure, after the operator adds materials to the first dumping furnace, the turntable rotates and synchronously drives the dumping furnace to rotate and move, and the second empty dumping furnace is turned to the feeding position. The first dumping furnace melts the charge added inside to make it liquid. After the turntable moves the first dumping furnace with the liquid charge to a fixed position, the refining device set on the turntable is extended into the first dumping furnace to refine the charge. After the charge is refined, the first dumping furnace is rotated by the turntable to the position corresponding to the flow channel, and the telescopic hydraulic cylinder lifts the dumping furnace to rotate on the support part. The dumping furnace tilts toward the flow channel position to allow the liquefied charge inside the dumping furnace to flow into the flow channel, and the feeding trolley stops at the flow channel. At one end of the trough, the position of the holding furnace arranged on it corresponds to the flow channel, and the flow channel guides the transportation of the charge to the holding furnace. After the charge has completely flowed into the holding furnace, the feeding trolley transports the holding furnace to the position of the oxygen-free casting machine, and the oxygen-free casting machine processes and casts the charge inside the holding furnace. After the charge in the holding furnace is completely used up, the feeding trolley transports the empty holding furnace back to the end of the flow channel. The second dumping furnace is dumped again by the dumping device after the charging, melting and refining steps like the first dumping furnace. The overall process uses a turntable to complete the charging, melting and refining transportation steps, and then directly dumps the charge into the holding furnace through the dumping device, which simplifies the transportation process and reduces unnecessary energy consumption.
[0023] Specifically, a first guide rail 10 is provided between the oxygen-free casting machine 2 and the turntable 3, and a first slider 41 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the feeding trolley 4 for use in conjunction with the first guide rail 10. The first slider and the first guide rail are used in conjunction to reduce the friction coefficient during the movement of the feeding trolley, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the feeding trolley movement.
[0024] Specifically, a second slider is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the insulation furnace 40, and a guide groove 42 is recessed at the top end of the feeding trolley 4 for use with the second slider. The cooperation between the guide groove and the second slider can ensure the movement direction of the insulation furnace and prevent the insulation furnace from moving incorrectly and causing the insulation furnace to fall from the top end of the feeding trolley.
[0025] Specifically, third guide rails 44 are provided on both sides of the guide groove 42, and a hooking device 43 is movably provided on the third guide rail 44 and performs linear reciprocating motion along the third guide rail 44. The side panel of the insulation furnace 40 is fixedly provided with a hooking part 400 used in conjunction with the hooking device 43. The hooking device can control the locking and movement of the insulation furnace. When in the locked state, the insulation furnace is fixed to the top of the feeding trolley, and when in the moving state, it can drive the insulation furnace to reciprocate along the direction of the guide groove.
[0026] Specifically, a second guide rail 20 connected to the guide groove 42 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the oxygen-free casting machine 2. The second guide rail 20 is used in conjunction with the second slider. The cooperation between the second guide rail and the second slider can guide the holding furnace.
[0027] Specifically, a first through hole 401 for connecting the inner cavity of the insulation furnace 40 and the outside world is provided at the top of the flow channel 5, and a second through hole 50 corresponding to the position of the through hole 401 is provided at the end of the flow channel. The second through hole of the flow channel plays a guiding and limiting role on the furnace charge, ensuring that the furnace charge flows accurately through the second through hole to the first through hole and then flows into the inner cavity of the insulation furnace, preventing the furnace charge from flowing to the outside world and causing unnecessary waste.
[0028] Specifically, a feeding platform 100 is provided on one side of the turntable 3. The feeding platform can be raised or lowered at will, thereby ensuring that operators with different heights can feed comfortably.
[0029] Specifically, a third through hole 630 is formed on one side of the dumping furnace 63, and a guide portion 631 is provided at the position of the third through hole 630. The guide portion guides the furnace charge flowing out of the dumping furnace through the third through hole.
[0030] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
