Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of strip steel production equipment, in particular to an air cooling device for a strip steel production line. Background Art

[0002] In the hot-rolled steel strip production line, the temperature of the steel strip after rolling in the finishing mill is usually very high, and it needs to be cooled quickly and evenly to control its structure and performance. During the cooling process, the steel strip is generally first cooled quickly by the laminar cooling system using water or water mist, and then the steel strip enters the air cooling device, using natural or forced convection of air to reduce the temperature of the steel strip and remove moisture from the surface of the steel strip. However, the current air cooling device requires at least two sets of fans to extract air to act on the surface of the steel strip, but the drying effect is not good and the energy consumption is high. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an air cooling device for a strip steel production line, which not only ensures the drying effect of the strip steel but also can reduce energy consumption.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: an air cooling device for a strip steel production line, comprising a heat exchanger, a drying unit and an exhaust pipe; the heat exchanger has a hot coil and a cold coil, the input end of the hot coil of the heat exchanger is connected to the preheating section or the heating section of the strip steel production line through a first steam pipeline, and the output end of the hot coil of the heat exchanger is provided with a second steam pipeline;

[0005] The drying unit comprises a fan and a drying box, the air outlet pipeline of the fan is connected to the input end of the cold coil of the heat exchanger, and the drying box has a strip steel inlet and a strip steel outlet arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the strip steel;

[0006] The air inlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the output end of the cold coil of the heat exchanger, the air outlet end of the exhaust pipe extends into the inner cavity of the drying box, the air outlet end of the exhaust pipe is close to the strip steel inlet of the drying box, and the air outlet end of the exhaust pipe faces the strip steel.

[0007] Furthermore, the air outlet end of the exhaust pipe is divided into an upper air blowing nozzle and a lower air blowing nozzle, and a space for the strip steel to pass through is reserved between the upper air blowing nozzle and the lower air blowing nozzle.

[0008] Furthermore, the air outlet end of the exhaust pipe is inclined toward the strip steel inlet of the drying box.

[0009] Furthermore, the air outlets of the upper air blowing nozzle and the lower air blowing nozzle are long strip-shaped air outlets.

[0010] Furthermore, valves are provided on the first steam pipe and the second steam pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, a muffler is provided on the fan.

[0012] Furthermore, a drain valve is provided at the bottom of the drying box.

[0013] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that, different from the prior art, the heat exchanger is used to exchange heat between the steam exhaust gas after use in the preheating section or heating section of the strip steel production line and the air drawn into the drying box by the fan, so that the air discharged from the exhaust pipe can not only blow away the moisture on the surface of the strip steel, but also evaporate the moisture remaining on the surface of the strip steel, thereby ensuring the drying effect of the strip steel. Then the strip steel continues to move toward the strip steel outlet direction of the drying box, and in this process, the strip steel can be naturally cooled. Thus, the use of a fan can complete the cooling and drying of the strip steel. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
