Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of casting equipment, and in particular relates to a casting system based on the recycling of scrap steel. Background Art

[0002] A casting is a metal product made through a casting process. The manufacturing process involves melting the metal into a liquid state, then pouring it into a mold and cooling and solidifying it into a product of the desired shape and size. As one of the core technologies in the metal processing industry, casting manufacturing technology has a long history and wide application.

[0003] In recent years, with the continuous rise in pig iron prices, the cost of castings has also been increasing. In order to reduce the cost of castings, some foundries have begun to try to use scrap steel instead of pig iron to produce ductile iron castings and other casting products. Practice has proved that it is feasible to produce ductile iron castings by smelting scrap steel. However, there are some impurities in the material after the scrap steel is crushed. If these impurities are not removed before smelting, it is easy to affect the quality of the product.

[0004] For example, Chinese patent application number (CN202010830716.X) discloses a recycling device for producing castings using scrap iron and scrap steel. The application uses an electromagnet to adsorb iron and steel chips, but iron and steel chips vary in size. Therefore, in order to avoid collision with large particles of iron and steel chips, the electromagnet is set at a height, which makes it difficult for some small particles of iron and steel chips to be adsorbed, resulting in waste, which needs to be improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0051] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments in the present application belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0052] Embodiment 1:

[0053] This embodiment provides a casting system based on the recycling of scrap steel, comprising:

[0054] A crushing mechanism, used for crushing scrap steel;

[0055] A smelting mechanism 1, used for smelting scrap steel;

[0056] The conveying mechanism 2 is used to convey the crushed scrap steel to the side of the smelting mechanism 1;

[0057] The magnetic separation mechanism 3 is installed between the conveying mechanism 2 and the smelting mechanism 1, and is used to magnetically separate the scrap steel on the conveying mechanism 2 and then convey it to the smelting mechanism 1;

[0058] A casting mechanism, connected to the smelting mechanism 1, and used for forming the casting;

[0059] The magnetic separation mechanism 3 includes a primary separation component 30 for performing primary magnetic separation on the scrap steel and a fine separation component 31 for performing secondary magnetic separation on the scrap steel;

[0060] Meanwhile, the primary selection component 30 is used to absorb larger scrap steel, and the fine selection component 31 is used to absorb smaller scrap steel. The crushing mechanism and the casting mechanism are existing mature technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0061] It can be seen from this embodiment that the scrap steel is adsorbed by the magnetic separation mechanism 3 to remove other impurities and ensure the quality of the smelted castings. The magnetic separation mechanism 3 with the primary selection component 30 and the fine selection component 31 can adsorb scrap steel of different sizes, avoid the waste of scrap steel, improve the recycling rate of scrap steel, and further reduce the manufacturing cost of castings.

[0062] Embodiment 2:

[0063] This embodiment provides a casting system based on the recycling of scrap steel. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features. The preliminary selection component 30 includes:

[0064] The electromagnetic chuck 300 is installed above the conveying mechanism 2 and the smelting mechanism 1 and is used to absorb the scrap steel on the conveying mechanism 2;

[0065] A hanger 301 is used for suspending the electromagnetic chuck 300;

[0066] A support tube 302 is installed at the bottom of the hanger 301;

[0067] A sliding rod 303 is slidably connected in the support tube 302, and one end of the sliding rod is connected to the electromagnetic chuck 300, and the other end passes through the support tube 302 and is hinged to the connecting rod 304;

[0068] The turntable 305 is installed on the hanger 301 by providing a driving device 306, and one end of the connecting rod 304 away from the supporting tube 302 is hingedly connected to the turntable 305;

[0069] Among them, the hanger 301 is connected to the top wall in the workshop by bolts or welding, and the sliding rod 303 and the support tube 302 can be welded, and the hinge connection is a rivet connection. The driving device 306 can use a servo motor, and the specific structure of the electromagnetic suction cup 300 and the servo motor is the existing technology and will not be repeated here.

[0070] It can be seen from this embodiment that, through the setting of the hanger 301, the preliminary selection component 30 can be moved above the conveying mechanism 2 and the smelting mechanism 1, thereby improving the loading efficiency of the scrap steel, and the setting of the turntable 305 facilitates the reciprocating drive of the slide rod 303 through the turntable 305, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of the drive.

[0071] Embodiment 3:

[0072] This embodiment provides a casting system based on the recycling of scrap steel. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features. The preliminary selection component 30 also includes:

[0073] The switch 307 is mounted on the hanger 301 and is located above the support tube 302;

[0074] A touch block 308 is mounted on the connecting rod 304;

[0075] Among them, after the connecting rod 304 and the sliding rod 303 form an angle, the touch block 308 touches the switch 307 to activate the electromagnetic suction cup 300, and the touch block 308 is made of elastic material, which can ensure that when the connecting rod 304 rotates to different angles, the degree of pressing on the switch 307 is different and can all be activated.

[0076] It can be seen from the present embodiment that by setting the switch 307 on the hanger 301 and the touch block 308 on the connecting rod 304 that rotates with the turntable 305, the electromagnetic suction cup 300 is adsorbed when it is located above the conveying mechanism 2, and is released when it is located above the smelting mechanism 1, thereby not only improving the scrap steel smelting and feeding efficiency, but also avoiding the need to set a remote control switch 307, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

[0077] Embodiment 4:

[0078] This embodiment provides a casting system based on the recycling of scrap steel. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features. The selected component 31 includes:

[0086] It can be seen from this embodiment that, through the setting of the first conveyor belt 310 and the electromagnetic roller 315, the fine scrap steel that is not adsorbed and recovered by the primary selection component 30 is recovered and simultaneously passed into the smelting mechanism 1 through the return hopper 313, thereby further improving the recovery efficiency and reducing the casting manufacturing cost. The baffle 311 can prevent the fine scrap steel from sliding out of the first conveyor belt 310 due to the inclined setting of the first conveyor belt 310.

[0094] It can be seen from this embodiment that by providing the machine body 10 and the heat insulation layer 13, the high temperature is prevented from affecting the conveying mechanism 2 and the magnetic separation mechanism 3, thereby reducing the service life. At the same time, heat loss is avoided, the temperature in the smelting furnace 11 is guaranteed, and the quality of the casting is guaranteed.

[0099] Embodiment 7:

[0100] This embodiment provides a casting system based on the recycling of scrap steel. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features. The smelting mechanism 1 also includes:

[0101] The discharge pipe 15 is installed on the side of the machine body 10 and is connected to the smelting furnace 11. An electric control valve is provided at the end away from the smelting furnace 11.
