Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of iron and steel metallurgical equipment, in particular to a continuous casting tundish flow control device. Background Art

[0002] During the continuous casting process in a steel plant, the molten steel in the tundish enters the crystallizer through the immersed nozzle, and the flow rate of the molten steel is controlled by a stopper rod that matches the bowl of the nozzle. The continuous casting stopper rod flow control device is a mechanism installed on the tundish. The mechanism is equipped with a fan-shaped gear, which cooperates with the flow control handle. The worker presses down or lifts up the flow control handle to control the flow rate of molten steel injected into the crystallizer, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the flow rate of molten steel.

[0003] The patent with the publication number of CN217433039U proposed that with the increase of the number of continuous casting furnaces and the abnormal erosion of the stopper rod and the upper water inlet of the tundish, the flow control handle will keep tilting upward, causing the pressure handle to be higher and higher from the steel casting platform, up to 1.5 meters, while the ideal operating height of the flow control handle is 0.9-1.0 meters from the steel casting platform. When the height is too high, it is difficult or even impossible for on-site workers to operate the flow control handle, resulting in the inability to effectively control the flow of molten steel in the casting flow, resulting in the loss of control of the stopper rod and steel overflow and accidental operation of the tundish, which has a serious impact on production, equipment, safe and stable operation. The patent includes a fixed sleeve, a side frame and a flow control handle: a lifting column is movably installed on the upper inner side of the fixed sleeve , and a limit strip is fixedly installed on the front side of the lifting column, and a gear strip is arranged in the middle of the left end of the lifting column, and a cross arm is fixedly installed on the upper end of the lifting column, and a stopper rod is fixedly installed on the right side of the lower end of the cross arm. The auxiliary flow control device for the stopper rod of the continuous casting tundish solves the problem that the flow cannot be controlled or is difficult to control when the height of the flow control handle of the flow control mechanism is abnormal. However, the following problems still exist in this patent: when the flow control handle in the above patent is located at a high place, it is necessary to loosen the locking bolt handle, rotate the auxiliary sleeve so that the bending auxiliary handle faces downward, and then fix the bending auxiliary handle by the locking bolt handle to control the position of the stopper rod. The method of manually adjusting the handle position to control the stopper rod is cumbersome to operate, which brings inconvenience to the user.

[0004] In view of the above problems, a continuous casting tundish flow control device is needed to improve the above problems. Utility Model Content
