Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metallurgy, in particular to a tundish structure capable of reducing bottom water dripping. Background Art
[0002] The tundish is a refractory container used in short-process steelmaking. It first receives the molten steel poured from the ladle, and then distributes it to each crystallizer through the tundish water outlet. The tundish is the middle link in the steelmaking production process and the connection point from intermittent operation to continuous operation. As a metallurgical reactor, the tundish is an important part of improving steel production and quality.
[0003] The tundish is generally composed of a middle steel shell, a working layer and a permanent layer. Its construction is divided into two processes. First, a permanent layer of a certain thickness is covered on the middle steel shell with castables, which can be used multiple times; then the working layer is built on the surface of the permanent layer. Because the slab tundish uses spray paint to build the working layer, the water in the working layer spray paint accounts for about 15%. When it is sprayed on the surface of the shell, the water will enter the permanent layer, and this part of the water cannot be completely evaporated. When baking on the continuous casting, the water enters the permanent layer and condenses into water droplets. After the pouring starts, the molten steel is injected into the tundish. The temperature rises, and the water vapor meets the middle steel shell and flows out as water droplets, falling into the production area, posing a safety hazard.
[0004] Therefore, the utility model develops a tundish structure capable of reducing bottom dripping to solve the above-mentioned problem. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an intermediate ladle structure capable of reducing bottom dripping in view of the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art. The filter plate cooperates with the leakage hole on the bottom wall of the middle ladle steel shell, and a gap is reserved between the filter plate and the inner bottom wall of the middle ladle steel shell. The filter plate has a certain supporting and isolating effect on the permanent layer, thereby preventing the permanent layer from directly blocking the leakage hole and causing poor leakage. Then, air is blown into the exhaust pipe through an air pump, and the gas is sent into each separated area through multiple branch pipes connected to the exhaust pipe. Under the action of wind and pressure, the water vapor in the permanent layer is pressed down and discharged from the middle ladle from the permanent layer.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0034] The output end of the charging interface 7 is connected to the exhaust pipe 8;
[0035] External air is injected into the sealing area between the middle steel shell 1 and the working layer 2 by an air pump, and the excess water in the permanent layer 3 is squeezed out from the leakage hole 6 by high pressure.
[0036] Specifically, a slot 9 is provided in the middle of the reinforcing rib plate 4, and the exhaust pipe 8 is arranged inside the slot 9. The exhaust pipe 8 is engaged with the slot 9 to improve its stability during internal pressurization.
[0037] Specifically, multiple reinforcing rib plates 4 evenly separate multiple leakage holes 6 into different areas, branch pipes 10 are connected to both sides of the exhaust pipe 8 and corresponding to each area, and the branch pipes 10 extend to the top of the permanent layer 3. The permanent layer 3 contains pores, which facilitates squeezing water out of the permanent layer 3 from top to bottom.
[0038] Specifically, the aperture of the filter plate 5 is smaller than that of the leakage hole 6, and a gap is reserved between the filter plate 5 and the inner bottom wall of the middle steel shell 1.

[0040] Specifically, a foot 11 is integrally provided at the bottom of the middle steel shell 1, and a groove gap is reserved between adjacent feet 11.

When ignited and baked, the air pump is started to blow air into the exhaust pipe 8, and the gas is sent into each separated area through a plurality of branch pipes 10 connected to the exhaust pipe 8. The wind and pressure are used to press the water vapor in the permanent layer 3 downward and discharge the tundish from the permanent layer 3, so that the moisture in the tundish is emptied during baking, the dripping during production is reduced, and the safety hazard of the casting process is reduced.
