Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of blast furnace smelting, and in particular relates to a device for quickly removing a blast furnace tuyere bushing. Background Art
[0002] To maintain stable regulation of the lower part of the blast furnace, ensure the stability of the tuyere whirlpool area, uniform and reasonable distribution of airflow and temperature, active operation of the hearth, and select the appropriate tuyere area under a certain blast furnace operation system to obtain a certain value of wind speed and blast kinetic energy, so as to keep the blast furnace condition smooth. However, with the changes in market conditions and the actual production situation of enterprises, the blast furnace smelting intensity will also change, and the blast furnace output needs to be able to make flexible adjustments.
[0003] When reducing the blast furnace capacity, in order to increase the kinetic energy of the blast and optimize the distribution of coal gas flow, it is necessary to reduce the tuyere area. There are three ways to reduce the tuyere area: blocking part of the tuyere, replacing a small area tuyere, and adding a refractory bushing to the tuyere. Among them, blocking part of the tuyere can easily cause uneven air volume around the blast furnace, affecting the smooth operation of the furnace; replacing a small area tuyere has a long production and installation cycle and cannot be adjusted quickly. Therefore, most manufacturers currently use the installation of tuyere bushings to achieve the purpose of reducing the tuyere area.
[0004] When the blast furnace capacity needs to be increased, the tuyere bushing is removed to expand the tuyere area. Since the tuyere bushing is a hard refractory material that is resistant to high temperature and wear, and the thickness of the bushing is only 20mm, it is difficult to break the bushing with a steel chisel or other equipment without removing the direct blowpipe. The bushing can only be removed after the direct blowpipe is removed. It takes 80-90 minutes to disassemble and assemble the direct blowpipe, which directly affects the blast furnace downtime and the blast furnace output. In addition, the disassembly and assembly of the direct blowpipe is cumbersome and the labor intensity of the employees is high. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The utility model will now be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] like Figure 1-6 , a method for quickly removing the tuyere bushing of a blast furnace, hoisting the steel platform 15 with the motor 14 and the spindle box 12 on a pushable small flat car, extending the entire drill rod 6 into the straight blowing pipe until the drill bit 1 contacts the tuyere bushing 22, pushing the small flat car, aligning the second connecting flange 8 in the spindle box 12 with the first connecting flange 7 of the drill rod 6 and connecting them with bolts, fixing the position of the small flat car so that it cannot move. Turn on the motor 14 to rotate the spindle 9 and the drill rod 6, manually turn the handle on the spindle box 12 to move the drill rod 6 forward, until it contacts the limit and cannot move forward, then withdraw, repeat the operation 3-4 times, stop the motor 14, release the connection between the drill rod 6 and the spindle box 12, and take out the drill rod 6. Use as Figure 4 The manual removal device shown is inserted into the straight blow pipe, and the residual tuyere bushing 22 is completely broken by knocking, rotating and hooking toward the tuyere inlet. Figure 5The manual cleaning device shown in the figure manually removes the broken refractory material completely by scraping it in the direction of the tuyere inlet, thereby completing the removal and cleaning of the entire tuyere bushing 22. The entire work process can be completed within 15 minutes, saving time and effort.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the tuyere bushing 22 is installed in the straight blowing pipe and is made of a refractory material that is resistant to high temperature and wear and has a relatively hard texture. It is in the shape of a hollow truncated cone structure with a wall thickness of about 20 mm.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, a device for quickly removing a blast furnace tuyere bushing comprises a drill bit 1, a lower limit mechanism 2, a centering mechanism 3, a spring 4, a lower limit mechanism 5, a drill rod 6, and a connecting flange 7.
[0031] The drill bit 1 is a spiral drill bit 1, the head diameter of the drill bit 1 is larger than the minimum inner diameter of the tuyere bushing 22, but smaller than its minimum outer diameter; the tail diameter of the drill bit 1 is larger than the maximum inner diameter of the tuyere bushing 22, but smaller than its maximum outer diameter. Within the fixed stroke range of the drill bit 1, the drill bit 1 is able to damage the tuyere bushing 22 but does not contact the wall of the direct blowpipe.
[0032] The structure of the lower limit mechanism 5 and the lower limit mechanism 2 is a bearing plus an outer annular steel plate. The inner ring of the bearing is welded to the drill rod 6, and the inner side rotates with the drill rod 6. The outer ring of the bearing is welded to the annular steel plate. The centering mechanism 3 and the spring 4 only contact with the outer ring annular steel plate. After contact, the centering mechanism 3 and the spring 4 do not rotate with the drill rod 6.
[0033] The overall length of the drill rod 6 is 4m. A centering mechanism 3 is set on the drill rod 6 at a distance of 1m from the drill bit. The centering mechanism 3 is in the shape of a hollow cone. The upper and lower outer diameters of the cone are the same as the inner diameter of the straight blow pipe at the corresponding position. The inner diameter of the cone is 1-2mm larger than the diameter of the drill rod. The centering mechanism 3 is pushed to the lower limit mechanism 2 by the action of the spring 4. The centering mechanism 3 does not rotate with the drill rod. When the centering mechanism 3 contacts the lower limit mechanism 2, the head of the drill bit 1 just contacts the air outlet bushing.
[0034] The spring 4 is a light-load spring, which is only used to support the centering mechanism 3 . The compression distance of the spring 4 is the stroke of the drill bit 1 , that is, the distance from the drill bit 1 head contacting the air outlet bushing 22 to the drill bit 1 head drilling out the smallest end of the air outlet bushing 22 .
[0035] The first connecting flange 7 and the second connecting flange 8 of the spindle box have the same diameter and can be connected by bolts.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, a device for quickly removing the tuyere bushing of a blast furnace also includes a second connecting flange 8, a main shaft 9, a main shaft sleeve 10, a handle 11, a main shaft box 12, a reduction gear 13, a motor 14, and a steel platform 15.
[0037] The spindle box 12 contains a spindle sleeve 10, the outer wall of which is engraved with tooth grooves. The spindle sleeve 10 realizes the up and down movement of the spindle 9 and the spindle sleeve 10 through a handle 11 with a gear, and the movement stroke is determined by the stroke requirement of the drill bit 1. Its main principle and internal structure are the same as those of a bench drilling machine.
[0038] A reduction gear 13 is arranged in the spindle box 12 to realize three-stage speed change and obtain a greater torque by reducing the motor speed.
[0039] The motor 14 and the spindle box 12 are all mounted and fixed on the steel platform 15. The entire spindle box 12 and the motor 14 have a certain tilt angle, and the tilt angle after the drill rod 6 is installed is the same as the installation angle of the blast furnace direct blowing pipe.
[0040] The steel platform 15 is provided with lifting lugs, and a crane can be used to lift the equipment.
[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, it includes a first steel plate 16 , a first rod body 17 , and a second handle 18 .
[0042] The first steel plate 16 is made of a rectangular steel plate with a thickness of 20 mm, and its width perpendicular to the direction of the first rod body 17 is smaller than the inner diameter of the bushing; the first rod body 17 is made of a steel rod with a diameter of 30 mm and a length of 3.6 m; the second handle 18 is a steel pipe with a diameter of 20 mm.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, it includes a second steel plate 19 , a second rod body 20 , and a third handle 21 .
[0044] The second steel plate 19 is made of a semicircular steel plate with a thickness of 20 mm, and the semicircular diameter is smaller than the minimum outer diameter of the air outlet bushing 22; the second rod body 20 is made of a steel rod with a diameter of 30 mm and a length of 4 m; the third handle 21 is a steel pipe with a diameter of 20 mm.
[0045] The existing process of removing the bushing of the direct blowing pipe takes 80-90 minutes, and the labor intensity of removing the direct blowing pipe is high. After adopting the utility model, the bushing of the tuyere can be removed smoothly in 15 minutes, which can greatly reduce the downtime time of the blast furnace process and improve the output of the blast furnace.
