Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of advanced steel materials technology, and in particular to a filtration device for cooling advanced steel materials. Background Technology

[0002] The advanced steel material cooling filtration device is an intelligent purification equipment designed for the cooling process of high-temperature molten steel. Its core function is to efficiently remove non-metallic inclusions and harmful elements from molten steel, while precisely controlling the cooling rate to ensure the uniformity of the material's microstructure. The device uses high-temperature resistant and corrosion-resistant special ceramic materials as the filter medium, combined with adaptive fluid dynamics design, enabling continuous and stable filtration under extreme conditions. This effectively reduces the oxygen and sulfur content in the molten steel, minimizing the risk of billet cracking. Its innovation lies in the integration of temperature sensors and flow rate control systems, which can match the cooling process requirements of different steel grades in real time. By dynamically adjusting the filtration accuracy and cooling intensity, it significantly improves the toughness, strength, and corrosion resistance of the steel. This device is widely used in key processes such as continuous casting and rolling, not only optimizing the production process but also helping the steel industry achieve a green and low-carbon transformation by reducing material loss and energy consumption, providing high-quality basic material support for high-end equipment manufacturing.

[0003] In practical use, existing devices suffer from high annual maintenance costs due to the easy clogging of filters and the lack of automatic cleaning functions, requiring frequent manual cleaning of the filter elements. At the same time, the increased resistance caused by filter cake accumulation seriously affects the filtration speed, making it difficult for the equipment to operate continuously and efficiently. Therefore, an advanced filtration device for cooling steel materials is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the high annual maintenance costs caused by the easy clogging of filters and the lack of automatic cleaning functions in traditional devices, which require frequent manual cleaning of the filter elements, and the increased resistance caused by filter cake accumulation, which seriously affects the filtration speed and makes it difficult for the equipment to operate continuously and efficiently. Therefore, this invention proposes an advanced filtration device for cooling steel materials.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: An advanced filtration device for cooling steel materials includes a water pipe with a filter plate inside. A cleaning housing is fixedly connected to the upper part of the water pipe, and a first motor is installed inside the cleaning housing. A first gear is installed at the output end of the first motor, and a second gear is meshed with the first gear. A worm is fixedly connected to the second gear, and a worm wheel is meshed with the worm. A cam is fixedly connected to the lower part of the worm wheel, and a vibrating rod is installed on one side of the cam. The vibrating rod is slidably connected to the cleaning housing. A first threaded rod is fixedly connected to the lower part of the first gear, and a connecting rod is threadedly connected to the first threaded rod. A scraper is fixedly connected to the lower part of the connecting rod.

[0006] Impurities are intercepted by filter plates installed inside the water pipe. After long-term filtration, filter cake will accumulate on the surface of the filter plates. The first motor is started to drive the first gear to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear and the first threaded rod to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the second gear drives the worm to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the cam to rotate. The rotation of the cam drives the vibrating rod to move back and forth, thereby causing the filter plate to vibrate and causing the filter cake to fall off. The rotation of the first threaded rod drives the connecting rod to move downward, so that while the filter plate is vibrating and cleaning, the surface of the filter plate is scraped by a scraper to assist in cleaning the filter cake. A soft pad is provided at the end of the vibrating rod near the filter plate.

[0007] The above technical solution further includes: A spring is arranged around the outside of the vibrating rod, and the spring is fixedly connected to the cleaning housing.

[0008] The lower part of the cleaning housing is fixedly connected to a transmission housing, and the transmission housing is slidably connected to a connecting rod. The transmission housing has a sliding groove inside, through which the connecting rod is slidably connected.

[0009] A pad is fixedly connected to the rear end of the filter plate, and a water pipe is fixedly connected to the side of the pad away from the filter plate.

[0010] A storage shell is fixedly connected to the lower part of the water pipe, and the storage shell is connected to the bottom of the water pipe. A feeding mechanism is provided at the connection point.

[0011] The feeding mechanism includes a feeding housing fixedly connected to one side of the pad, a second motor is provided inside the feeding housing, and a feeding component is provided at the output end of the second motor.

[0012] The feeding assembly includes a third gear located at the output end of the second motor, the third gear being meshed with a fourth gear, and the fourth gear being fixedly connected to a feeding turntable.

[0013] A control housing is fixedly connected to one side of the storage housing. A third motor is provided at one end of the control housing near the storage housing, and a control component is provided at the output end of the third motor.

[0014] The control component includes a second threaded rod at the output end of a third motor, which is engaged with a transmission component. A movable baffle is fixedly connected to the upper part of the transmission component, and the movable baffle is slidably connected to the storage housing. Two rotating wheels are rotatably connected to the bottom of the transmission component, and a limit rod is provided between the two rotating wheels. The limit rod is fixedly connected to the control housing.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 9. In this invention, a filter plate is installed inside the water pipe. The filter plate can intercept impurities. After long-term filtration, a filter cake accumulates on the surface of the filter plate, affecting the filtration effect. By starting the first motor, the first gear can be driven to rotate. The rotation of the first gear can drive the second gear and the first threaded rod to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the second gear can drive the worm to rotate. The rotation of the worm can drive the worm wheel to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel can drive the cam to rotate. The rotation of the cam can drive the vibrating rod to move back and forth, thereby causing the filter plate to vibrate and shake off the filter cake on the surface. The rotation of the first threaded rod can drive the scraper to move downward, thereby scraping the surface of the filter plate synchronously during the vibration cleaning process, effectively removing the impurities still attached to the surface of the filter plate after vibration, and improving the cleaning effect.

[0016] 10. In this invention, the filter cake that falls off the surface of the filter plate can fall to the bottom of the water pipe. The third motor can drive the adjustment component to control the movement of the movable baffle, so that the filter cake falls into the storage shell for collection. During the collection of filter cake, the feeding mechanism can drive the feeding plate to rotate, thereby assisting the filter cake to enter the storage shell and preventing the filter cake from blocking the upper part of the storage shell.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Example 1 like Figures 1-7 As shown, an advanced steel material cooling filtration device includes a water pipe 1, a filter plate 4 inside the water pipe 1, a cleaning housing 2 fixedly connected to the upper part of the water pipe 1, a first motor 13 inside the cleaning housing 2, a first gear 14 at the output end of the first motor 13, a second gear 15 meshing with the first gear 14, a worm gear 16 fixedly connected to the second gear 15, a worm wheel 17 meshing with the worm gear 16, a cam 18 fixedly connected to the lower part of the worm wheel 17, a vibration rod 19 on one side of the cam 18, the vibration rod 19 slidingly connected to the cleaning housing 2, a first threaded rod 21 fixedly connected to the lower part of the first gear 14, a connecting rod 6 threadedly connected to the first threaded rod 21, and a scraper 5 fixedly connected to the lower part of the connecting rod 6.

[0021] Impurities are intercepted by the filter plate 4 inside the water pipe 1. After long-term filtration, a filter cake will accumulate on the surface of the filter plate 4. The first motor 13 is started to drive the first gear 14 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 14 drives the second gear 15 and the first threaded rod 21 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the second gear 15 drives the worm gear 16 to rotate. The rotation of the worm gear 16 drives the worm wheel 17 to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel 17 drives the cam 18 to rotate. The rotation of the cam 18 drives the vibrating rod 19 to move back and forth, thereby causing the filter plate 4 to vibrate and the filter cake to fall off. The rotation of the first threaded rod 21 drives the connecting rod 6 to move downward. Thus, while the filter plate 4 is vibrating and cleaning, the surface of the filter plate 4 is scraped by the scraper 5 to assist in cleaning the filter cake. A soft pad is provided at the end of the vibrating rod 19 near the filter plate 4.

[0022] A spring 20 is arranged around the outside of the vibrating rod 19. The spring 20 is fixedly connected to the cleaning housing 2. A transmission housing 8 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the cleaning housing 2. A connecting rod 6 is slidably connected to the transmission housing 8. A sliding groove is provided inside the transmission housing 8, through which the connecting rod 6 is slidably connected. A pad 12 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the filter plate 4. A water pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the side of the pad 12 away from the filter plate 4. A storage housing 3 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the water pipe 1. The storage housing 3 is connected to the bottom of the water pipe 1. A feeding mechanism is provided at the connection point.

[0023] In this embodiment, a filter plate 4 is installed inside the water pipe 1. The filter plate 4 can intercept impurities. However, after long-term filtration, a filter cake will accumulate on the surface of the filter plate 4, thus affecting the filtration effect. By starting the first motor 13, the first gear 14 can be driven to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 14 can drive the second gear 15 and the first threaded rod 21 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the second gear 15 can drive the worm gear 16 to rotate. The rotation of the worm gear 16 can drive the meshing worm wheel 17 to rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel 17 can drive the fixedly connected cam 18 to rotate. The rotation of the cam 18 can drive the vibrating rod 19 to move back and forth, thereby driving the filter plate 4. Vibration occurs, and the spring 20 set outside the vibrating rod 19 can effectively improve the vibration effect. In addition, a pad 12 is also set on one side of the filter plate 4, which can effectively reduce the impact of the vibration of the pad 12 on the water pipe 1. The vibration of the filter plate 4 can shake off the filter cake on the surface. The rotation of the first threaded rod 21 can drive the threaded connecting rod 6 to move downward. The downward movement of the connecting rod 6 can drive the fixedly connected scraper 5 to move downward, so that the surface of the filter plate 4 is scraped simultaneously during the vibration cleaning process, effectively removing the impurities still attached to the surface of the filter plate 4 after vibration. The cleaning effect is further improved by the cleaning method of combining scraping and vibration.

[0024] Example 2 like Figures 1-7 As shown, the feeding mechanism includes a feeding housing 9 fixedly connected to one side of the pad 12. A second motor 22 is provided inside the feeding housing 9. A feeding assembly is provided at the output end of the second motor 22. The feeding assembly includes a third gear 23 provided at the output end of the second motor 22. A fourth gear 24 is meshed with the third gear 23. A feeding turntable 7 is fixedly connected to the fourth gear 24.

[0025] A control housing 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the storage housing 3. A third motor 25 is provided at one end of the control housing 10 near the storage housing 3. A control component is provided at the output end of the third motor 25. The control component includes a second threaded rod 26 provided at the output end of the third motor 25. A transmission component 27 is engaged with the second threaded rod 26. A movable baffle 11 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the transmission component 27. The movable baffle 11 is slidably connected to the storage housing 3. Two rotating wheels 29 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the transmission component 27. A limit rod 28 is provided between the two rotating wheels 29. The limit rod 28 is fixedly connected to the control housing 10.

[0026] In this embodiment, the filter cake that falls off the surface of the filter plate 4 can fall to the bottom of the water pipe 1. The third motor 25 can drive the second threaded rod 26 to rotate. The rotation of the second threaded rod 26 drives the threaded transmission component 27 to move. During the movement of the transmission component 27, the rotating wheel 29 connected at the bottom can be driven along the limiting rod 28. Thus, by controlling the movement stability of the transmission component 27 and controlling the movement of the movable baffle 11, the opening and closing of the connection between the storage shell 3 and the water pipe 1 can be realized, so that the filter cake falls into the storage shell 3 for collection.

[0027] During the filter cake collection process, the second motor 22 drives the third gear 23 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 23 drives the meshing fourth gear 24 to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear 24 drives the fixedly connected feed plate 7 to rotate, thereby assisting the filter cake to enter the storage shell 3 and preventing the filter cake from blocking the upper part of the storage shell 3.

[0028] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
