DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0017] As shown in the figure, a new type of iron outlet structure for a blast furnace includes a furnace shell 1, an iron outlet frame 2 is installed on the side of the furnace shell 1 at the position of the iron outlet of the blast furnace, and the inner center position of the iron outlet frame 2 has a plurality of prefabricated parts extending toward the inner direction of the furnace shell 1, and the prefabricated parts are made of silicon nitride combined with silicon carbide. The plurality of prefabricated parts are connected end to end and a cannon mud channel 6 is formed inside the iron outlet frame 2. The prefabricated part structure is used as a mud sleeve structure in the iron outlet area. Compared with the refractory brick masonry method, it can avoid the problems of gas leakage and poor structural stability. Compared with the method of pouring refractory materials, it can reduce the difficulty and complexity of pouring at the iron outlet position, reduce labor costs, and extend its service life in the subsequent use process. The outside of the prefabricated part has a first protrusion 9 that protrudes outward and is evenly arranged. The first protrusion 9 is arranged in a ring-shaped protrusion at the outer wall position of the prefabricated part, which is mainly used to improve the stability of the installation structure of the prefabricated part itself and avoid shaking, displacement and other problems during use.
[0018] There are three prefabricated parts, which are a replaceable prefabricated part 3, a connecting prefabricated part 4 and a permanent prefabricated part 5 from the outside of the furnace shell 1 to the inside of the blast furnace. The replaceable prefabricated part 3, the connecting prefabricated part 4 and the permanent prefabricated part 5 are all conical structures, and the outer diameters decrease from the outside to the inside of the blast furnace. The replaceable prefabricated part 3 can be replaced after being used for a period of time. The connecting prefabricated part 4 is used as a connecting part between the replaceable prefabricated part 3 and the permanent prefabricated part 5. The permanent prefabricated part 5 is close to the inside of the blast furnace and can be used for a long time.
[0019] The first protrusion 9 is a semicircular structure, a trapezoidal structure or a triangular structure. In this example, the first protrusion 9 is a semicircular structure. In addition, it can also be designed as a trapezoidal structure or a triangular structure according to actual needs, mainly to improve the installation firmness of the prefabricated part (mud sleeve).
[0020] Among the two adjacent prefabricated parts, the end of one of the prefabricated parts has a second protruding part 10 protruding outward, and the end of the other prefabricated part has a groove part matching the second protruding part 10. This arrangement is, on the one hand, to facilitate the assembly between the adjacent prefabricated parts, and on the other hand, it can avoid the problem of gas leakage. In order to improve the sealing performance, the gap between the two adjacent prefabricated parts can be filled with high thermal conductivity silica sol castable during assembly.
[0021] A castable layer 7 is further provided inside the furnace shell 1 , and the castable layer 7 is located outside the plurality of prefabricated parts. A refractory brick layer 8 is further provided inside the furnace body, and the refractory brick layer 8 is located outside the castable layer 7 .
[0022] This new iron outlet structure for blast furnaces uses a mud sleeve made of prefabricated parts to replace the traditional refractory brick masonry or cast structure. On the one hand, it has the advantages of a more stable structure and avoidance of gas leakage. On the other hand, it has the advantages of simple installation and long service life.
[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
