Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of steel metallurgical equipment, and particularly relates to a blast furnace coal injection safety cutoff device and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The blast furnace coal injection is an important stage in the steel metallurgical ironmaking stage. In the coal injection process, the coal needs to be dried, rolled and separated, and then ground into qualified coal powder. Then the coal powder is injected into the blast furnace through the blast furnace tuyere by the carrier gas. In the coal injection process, the injection gun often appears abnormal, so the existing coal powder injection gun is usually equipped with a check valve. However, the check valve generally needs to be operated manually, which has a certain hysteresis. If the coal powder injection gun can automatically judge the non-injection of coal and automatically perform the check operation, the safety of the coal powder injection will be greatly improved. In view of the above technical problems, the researchers designed a coal injection anti-backfire device. Chinese patent application publication CN110724779A discloses a blast furnace ironmaking coal powder injection gun check valve and a check method, and Chinese patent application publication CN117187456A discloses a new coal injection anti-backfire device. The two technical solutions and the same applicant's similar technical solutions all set a bend pipe in communication with the powder outlet steel pipe and the powder inlet steel pipe, and set an anti-backfire ball in the bend pipe. When the coal powder injection gun is normally operated, the anti-backfire ball is impacted by the gas flow to the top end of the bend pipe, and the coal powder normally passes through the powder inlet steel pipe and the powder outlet steel pipe. When the coal powder injection gun fails, the anti-backfire ball falls due to the disappearance of the coal powder gas flow, and then generates a reverse gas flow due to the gas pressure in the blast furnace, so that the anti-backfire ball blocks the powder inlet steel pipe, thereby preventing the gas flow in the blast furnace from flowing outward and avoiding safety accidents. However, impurities (including scale generated due to high temperature during injection) are generated in the pipeline during the coal injection process. These technical solutions do not study the impurity removal components. If the impurity removal components are set at the tail of the powder outlet steel pipe as general impurity removal components, the impurities will mainly appear near the bend pipe, and the impurities will not be completely removed if the impurity removal components are set at the tail of the powder outlet steel pipe, which will cause serious scale in the bend pipe, thereby affecting the normal operation of the ball and the sealing.

[0003] Chinese utility model publication CN216242336U discloses a coal injection gun anti-backfire device. The second ceramic lining is set to enable the ceramic ball to better dynamically stay during normal operation. However, since the ceramic lining needs to be set, each component needs to be welded, so that the welding position is easy to form a gas flow impact point, thereby causing unstable gas flow and increased loss.

[0004] The Chinese patent CN114962742B discloses a coal injection anti-backfire device, which limits the movement of ceramic balls by setting connecting parts and connecting cylinders, but the structure of each part for limiting is complex, and the safety and stability during high-temperature working process need to be discussed.

[0031] A method for safely shutting off pulverized coal injection in a blast furnace, the method using the aforementioned pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device, includes the following steps: (1) The above-mentioned blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device is cast in one piece.

[0032] (2) Connect the blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device obtained by integral casting in step (1) to the outlet of the pulverized coal injection system through the inlet end of the inlet pipe and the outlet end of the outlet pipe to the inlet of the pulverized coal injection gun. The whole device is installed on the blast furnace; the shut-off ball is installed through the top of the arc tube of the shut-off bend and the cover is tightened.

[0033] (3) Start the pulverized coal injection device to carry out pulverized coal injection in the blast furnace. The stop ball is impacted by pulverized coal and airflow to the stop bend near the top of the arc tube and continues to rotate under continuous impact.

[0034] (4) When any component in the pulverized coal injection device malfunctions or loses power, the flow of pulverized coal and carrier gas in the blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device decreases or disappears, the shut-off ball falls to the bottom of the shut-off bend, the gas pressure inside the blast furnace is greater than the gas pressure of the pulverized coal and carrier gas flow, the gas flow direction inside the blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device changes direction, the fallen shut-off ball is blown to the inlet pipe connection end of the inlet pipe to achieve one-way sealing, and due to the continuous existence of blast furnace gas pressure, the shut-off ball continues to maintain close contact with the inlet pipe connection end of the inlet pipe.

[0035] (5) When the pulverized coal injection device is cleared, the pulverized coal and carrier gas flow are discharged at high speed through the inlet pipe. The stop ball is impacted by the pulverized coal and air flow to the stop bend near the top of the arc pipe and continues to rotate under the continuous impact.

[0036] (6) After the overall pulverized coal injection operation is completed, unscrew the sealing nut at the outlet end of the discharge pipe, insert the steel rod from bottom to top, and break the scale deposited inside the pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device of the blast furnace. The scale is discharged downward through the discharge pipe, and then tighten the sealing nut at the outlet end of the discharge pipe.

[0037] The ranges defined by "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", and "middle" in this invention are relative positions in a specific state, not absolute positions, and do not limit the range of the device or components.

[0038] The technical advantages of this invention are as follows: 1. Based on existing technology, this invention incorporates a waste discharge pipe (primarily used for clearing blockages and releasing waste). Specifically, the waste discharge pipe is positioned near the stop bend of the outlet pipe, below it (its location is defined by a specific distance ratio). This allows for the placement of the waste discharge pipe at the location most prone to fouling. The stop bend is prone to fouling due to turbulent airflow. Because the waste discharge pipe is downward-facing (although the bottom is closed during operation), existing designs inevitably experience airflow impact with the pipe opening when high-speed airflow passes through this area. This not only causes airflow turbulence but, more importantly, leads to excessive wear at the opening due to the long-term impact of high-speed airflow and coal dust carried by the airflow, preventing waste discharge and ultimately damaging the entire device. This invention limits the location of the discharge pipe by a specific distance ratio. The discharge pipe is positioned below the stop bend near the outlet pipe. During normal operation, after the airflow enters through the inlet pipe, the inner diameter of the stop bend is larger than that of the inlet pipe, inevitably causing the pipe diameter to expand and resulting in turbulence. However, because this invention sets the inner diameter of the outlet pipe to be the same as that of the inlet pipe, the airflow tends to stabilize after entering the outlet pipe. Furthermore, since the bottom of the stop bend is arc-shaped and connects to the outlet pipe, the area immediately following the connection point is where the airflow has less contact. Therefore, the location of the discharge pipe inlet at this point is not subject to excessive airflow impact, further ensuring the reliability of the overall device. If the discharge pipe inlet is moved further towards the outlet pipe, it will not only be farther from the area with the most internal debris, making effective discharge impossible, but it will also be farther from the area immediately following the connection point, increasing the impact of the airflow on the discharge pipe inlet. Therefore, this invention limits its position to a specific location below the stop bend near the outlet pipe by a specific distance ratio. This not only places it in the location where the most dirt is generated, thus achieving effective dirt removal, but also avoids the excessive impact of high-speed airflow, which could cause the device to become unreliable.

[0039] 2. Based on existing technology, this invention first constructs the overall blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device using a one-piece casting method, whereas existing devices are welded. One-piece casting avoids the impact points that occur at the welded joints of existing components. As mentioned above, one-piece casting not only results in a more rational structure and smooth transitions of internal edges, but more importantly, it allows for flexible selection of casting materials, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel. The wear resistance of the material can be flexibly adjusted according to usage requirements, a goal that existing welding methods cannot achieve. Furthermore, this invention, through one-piece casting combined with the specific diameter relationship of the shut-off spheres and the identical inner diameters of the inlet and outlet pipes, reduces the impact of high-speed airflow on various connections, thereby significantly improving the overall reliability of the device.

[0040] 3. By setting the inner diameter of the inlet and outlet pipes to be the same, the inlet and outlet pipes remain unchanged. Although the diameter increases when passing through the stop bend, causing a change in the airflow velocity from the inlet pipe to the horizontal section of the stop bend (due to the increased diameter, the instantaneous airflow velocity at this point decreases slightly), resulting in turbulence, the inner diameter of the outlet pipe remains unchanged relative to the inlet pipe. After passing through the horizontal section of the stop bend, the high-speed airflow velocity returns to its previous value due to the restoration of the inner diameter, preventing excessive turbulence. This further weakens the impact of high-speed airflow on the connection points of the device, thereby improving the overall lifespan and reliability of the device.

[0041] 4. This invention, by defining the relationship between the diameter of the ball, the inner diameter of the stop tube, and the inner diameter of the inlet pipe (or outlet pipe), achieves stable rotation of the stop ball under the impact of high-speed airflow at the upper part of the stop bend during normal operation. This diameter relationship prevents excessive friction between the stop ball and the inner wall of the stop bend. Simultaneously, during abnormal operation, the diameter matching allows the stop ball to more completely adhere to the inlet pipe connection end, achieving efficient one-way sealing. If the stop ball is too small, excessive entry into the inlet pipe connection end opening will inevitably cause friction between the stop ball and the inner wall of the pipe after the high-speed airflow re-enters during normal operation. If the stop ball is too large, efficient sealing is difficult, and excessive friction with the inner wall of the stop bend is likely. Furthermore, in the preferred technical solution, by setting the arc tube body to a 1 / 4 arc shape and specifying the arc radius ratio, the stop ball is less likely to collide and rub excessively with the inner wall within the arc tube body during operation, thereby improving the reliability of the device.

[0042] 5. In addition to limiting the relationship between the diameter of the stop ball and the inner diameter of other tubes, this invention also sets the relationship between the mass of the stop ball and the airflow velocity to ensure that the ball does not fall and that the stop ball can be basically kept in the upper part of the arc tube body. If the mass is too small, it will have too much contact with the cap, resulting in instability. If the mass is too large, it will easily fall to the horizontal position of the arc tube body, thus affecting the normal and uniform flow of airflow. By setting the relationship between the mass of the stop ball and the airflow velocity in this invention, the stop ball can be continuously and uniformly suspended and rotated at a higher position of the arc tube body below the cap.

[0043] 6. In the preferred embodiment, the open design of each part, with wear-resistant coating sprayed on the inner wall and key parts, allows for a coating thickness of 20-50 μm when integrally cast, with minimal impact on the inner diameter. In contrast, the thickness of the ceramic lining coating in other non-integral cast devices is generally 1.5-2 mm, and the impact on the inner diameter of the output pipe is too great when the outer diameter cannot be changed. This invention achieves efficient sealing between the stop ball and the inlet pipe by specifically setting the chamfer and the size of the chamfer at the inlet pipe connection end (defined by the ratio between the diameter of the ball and the diameter of the circle formed by the contact line). Preferably, by setting the length of the outlet pipe body to be greater than 100 mm, the turbulence caused by the slightly larger diameter of the stop bend relative to the inlet pipe is effectively rectified after entering the outlet pipe body due to the longer constant diameter setting, resulting in a more uniform and stable airflow. This avoids the scouring of contact points due to overall airflow instability, thereby improving the overall reliability of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0085] (2) The blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device obtained by integral casting in step (1) is connected to the outlet of the pulverized coal injection system (e.g., the injection branch pipe) through the inlet end 102 of the inlet pipe 100, and the outlet end 303 of the outlet pipe 300 is connected to the pulverized coal injection gun set at the pulverized coal injection port of the blast furnace. The whole device is installed on the blast furnace; the shut-off ball 500 is installed through the top end 204 of the arc pipe of the shut-off bend 200 and the sealing cover 206 is tightened.

[0086] (3) The pulverized coal injection device is started to carry out pulverized coal injection in the blast furnace. The stop ball 500 is impacted by pulverized coal and airflow to the stop bend 200 near the top of the arc tube 204 and continues to rotate under continuous impact. Figure 5 As shown, the airflow inside the blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device is also as follows: Figure 5 The flow is shown.

[0087] (4) When any component in the pulverized coal injection device malfunctions or loses power, the flow of pulverized coal and carrier gas in the blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device decreases or disappears, the shut-off ball 500 falls to the bottom of the shut-off bend 200, the gas pressure inside the blast furnace is greater than the gas pressure of the pulverized coal and carrier gas flow, and the gas flow direction in the blast furnace pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device changes direction, such as... Figure 6As shown, the falling stop ball 500 is blown to the inlet pipe connection end 104 of the inlet pipe 100 to achieve a one-way seal, and due to the continuous presence of blast furnace gas pressure, the stop ball 500 continues to maintain close contact with the inlet pipe connection end 104 of the inlet pipe 100.

[0088] (5) After the pulverized coal injection device malfunction is resolved, the pulverized coal and carrier gas flow are discharged at high speed through the inlet pipe 100. The stop ball 500 is impacted by the pulverized coal and airflow and is pushed into the stop bend 200 near the top of the arc pipe 204, and continues to rotate under the continuous impact. Figure 5 The flow is shown.

[0089] (6) After the overall pulverized coal injection operation is completed, unscrew the sealing nut set at the outlet end 403 of the waste discharge pipe, insert the steel rod from bottom to top, and break the dirt deposited inside the pulverized coal injection safety shut-off device of the blast furnace. The dirt is discharged downward through the waste discharge pipe 400. Then tighten the sealing nut at the outlet end 403 of the waste discharge pipe.

[0090] Comparative Example 1 The other settings in this comparative example are the same as in Example 2, except that the inner diameter D of the outlet pipe body 301 is different. 出 Setting the diameter to 26mm allows the outlet pipe to more easily align with subsequent components, as described in the background art document. Comparative tests were conducted using this scaled-down device. During the tests, irregular collision sounds were continuously heard between the stop ball and the inner wall of the arc tube body. This indicates that the stop ball does not remain dynamically in a fixed position within the stop bend, but rather experiences irregular collisions with the inner wall of the arc tube body. This is due to the "diameter change" between the inlet and outlet pipes, which generates excessive turbulence in the airflow as it passes through the arc tube body, causing the stop ball to wobble. Such irregular collisions lead to increased losses at relatively high temperatures and pose safety hazards under extreme conditions.

[0091] Comparative Example 2 The other settings in this comparative example are the same as in Example 2, except that the components are formed by welding rather than by integral casting. A comparative test was conducted using the device in this example. After running for 36 hours, the device was disassembled, and it was found that the inlet pipe connection end, the arc pipe side end, and the discharge pipe inlet end all showed a certain degree of erosion wear. In contrast, after disassembling the device of Example 2, which had run for 36 hours, virtually no erosion wear was observed.

[0092] Comparative Example 3 The other settings in this comparative example are the same as in Example 2, except that the mathematical axis of the pipe at the top of the arc pipe does not coincide with the mathematical axis of the main body of the discharge pipe. Instead, it is set closer to the inlet pipe, and the distance between the mathematical axis of the pipe at the top of the arc pipe and the mathematical axis of the main body of the discharge pipe is set to 8mm, which does not satisfy 0≤L1<0.15D. 杂 The requirements are that it should be close to the inlet pipe. A comparative test was conducted using this device. After running for 36 hours, the device was disassembled and it was found that severe erosion wear occurred at the inlet end of the discharge pipe. This is because the discharge pipe is located below the stop bend and close to the inlet pipe. At this location, the airflow diameter increases as it exits from the inlet pipe to the stop bend, causing vortex development. Since the inlet end of the discharge pipe is a downward channel, the airflow easily becomes further turbulent, thus further intensifying the impact on both sides of the discharge pipe inlet end. In contrast, in Embodiments 1 and 2 of this invention, the discharge pipe is located below the stop bend and close to the outlet pipe. Because the inner diameter of the outlet pipe is the same as that of the inlet pipe, the airflow has already entered the outlet bend after passing through the stop bend. Since the inlet and outlet inner diameters are the same, the airflow velocity and disturbance at this location are relatively small. Furthermore, because the junction of the stop bend and the outlet pipe is a gradually narrowing arc, the airflow... Figure 5 As shown, the airflow is curved upwards, so the airflow at the inlet of the waste discharge pipe is obliquely upwards, thus preventing scouring and wear at the inlet of the waste discharge pipe. This also proves that the specific setting and limitation of the present invention have outstanding substantive features.

[0093] Comparative Example 4 The other settings in this comparative example are the same as in Example 2, except that the diameter D of the stop sphere is different. 球 The value is 31mm, which does not satisfy D. 弧 :D 球 :D 入 The requirement of (30~34): (26~29): (22~25) necessitates a relatively large diameter of the stop ball. A comparative test was conducted using this device. After 36 hours of operation, the device was disassembled, revealing some wear on the stop ball. This indicates that the stop ball experiences significant friction against the inner wall of the stop bend during rotation. Excessive friction increases the likelihood of uncontrollable buoyancy in the airflow, negatively impacting the overall stability of the device. Analysis of the disassembled device from Example 2, which had run for 36 hours, revealed virtually no wear on the stop ball, demonstrating that the diameter ratio set in this invention ensures the stability of the stop ball during airflow rotation and floating.

[0094] Comparative Example 5 The other settings in this comparative example are the same as in Example 2, except that the mass of the stop ball is 0.098 kg (using a stainless steel ball), then M 球 / V 煤 ≈0.2, does not meet 0.052V 煤 <M 球 <0.19V 煤 To meet the requirements, a comparative test was conducted using this proportional device. During operation, it was found that the airflow discharged from the outlet pipe was unstable, fluctuating in intensity. The analysis revealed that the cause was that the mass of the stop ball was too large, resulting in unstable suspension and a low position. Consequently, it tended to linger in the horizontal region within the stop bend, causing internal airflow instability.

[0095] The techniques known in the art involved in this invention have not been described in detail. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
