Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of blast furnace equipment, and in particular to a water-gas rotary joint device. Background Art

[0002] The large taphole opening machines used in the iron-making yard are all equipped with a water mist blowing function, which can effectively improve the drilling effect of the drill bit on the waterless taphole mud and reduce the consumption of drilling tools. As an important device for the water mist blowing function, the water-gas connector can rotate with the taphole opening machine, allowing water and gas media to enter from one end of the device and flow out from the other end through rotation and reversal, ensuring that the water mist blowing function of the taphole opening machine continues to work.

[0003] At present, the water-gas rotating device is fixed on the upper part of the rotating center of the taphole opening machine, and is connected by a hard pipe between the column and the rotating arm. The rotation of the rotating arm drives the outer half shell of the water-gas rotating device to rotate, so that the water-gas channel rotates and changes direction to meet the water mist blowing function of the taphole opening machine. This device is called a "water-gas connector".

[0004] The inner and outer half shells of the water-gas connector structure in the prior art are thin-walled special-shaped parts with low shell strength. The special-shaped shells require special casting molds, which have high manufacturing costs. The inner and outer half shells are severely worn during rotation, resulting in a weakened sealing function. They cannot effectively prevent water and gas leakage, and cannot ensure that the iron mouth opening machine can stably perform water mist blowing. What's more, the material of the inner and outer half shell structures is tin bronze. After the inner and outer half shells are in contact with friction force, there is a sticking phenomenon, which reduces the rotation accuracy. The inner and outer half shells are greatly worn during use and have a short service life.

[0005] Therefore, a new water-gas rotary joint is urgently needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0031] The core shaft 13 includes a large diameter section 131 and a small diameter section 132. The bottom surface of the large diameter section 131 is fixedly connected to the chassis 11, and the small diameter section 132 extends vertically along the top surface of the large diameter section 131. A water inlet channel 21 and an air inlet channel 31 are arranged inside the large diameter section 131, and a water outlet channel 22 and an air outlet channel 32 are arranged inside the small diameter section 132.

The cross-sectional shape of the sealing ring 18 in the present application can be trapezoidal, triangular, circular, star-shaped, etc., which is not limited in the present application. In order to highlight the advantages of the present application, the sealing ring 18 in the present application adopts a star-shaped sealing ring 18, which uses the X-shaped structural characteristics of the star-shaped sealing ring 18 to prevent itself from rolling in the groove. In addition, the sealing ring 18 can also be placed on both sides of the retaining ring 17 to prevent the sealing ring 18 from being squeezed into the gap on the low-pressure side under high pressure and being damaged and failing.

[0037] In order to prevent external flying dust and ash from extending into the space between the outer shell 12 and the core shaft 13 and increasing the wear of the outer shell 12 shell and the axial surface of the core shaft 13, an end cover 19 is fixedly arranged on the top of the shell, and the inner wall of the end cover 19 is spaced apart from the top end surface of the core shaft 13, and the coverage area of ​​the end cover 19 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the core shaft 13.

[0039] The water inlet channel 21 and the air inlet channel 31 are in an inverted T-shaped three-way structure, and a plug 5 is embedded at one end of the water inlet channel 21 and the air inlet channel 31 close to the chassis 11. The plug 5 is a convex structure with one end large and one end small, and the large diameter end of the plug 5 is against the edge of one end of the chassis 11 of the water inlet channel 21 and the air inlet channel 31. The setting of the plug 5 can ensure the integrity of the water flow channel 20 and the air flow channel 30 of the joint body 10, and avoid water leakage and air leakage of the joint body 10 caused by gaps in the water flow channel 20 and the air flow channel 30.
