Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of silo components, and more specifically, to a quicklime silo clearing system. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, quicklime is used as a desulfurizer in the ironmaking furnace during the steelmaking process to remove sulfur from molten iron. It has a high alkalinity and strong alkalinity, and can react with sulfides to generate volatile hydrogen sulfide, thereby reducing the sulfur content in steel. Therefore, the role of quicklime is indispensable in the steelmaking process of the steel industry. The quicklime silo is generally a conical steel silo, which is large at the top and small at the bottom. The lower part is conical, large at the top and small at the bottom. The upper opening is for feeding and the lower opening is for discharging. The material falls from top to bottom by its own weight. When the falling material flows downward in the conical container, as the cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet becomes smaller, the extrusion formed by the material becomes larger and larger. The friction between the material and the silo wall during the falling process will also become larger and larger, and it is easy to form a large and deep cave arch foundation. After the cave arch foundation is formed, the volume becomes larger and larger, and eventually causes material blockage. The length of time the material is stored in the container, the air humidity, temperature, and the size of the friction coefficient of the inner wall of the container are all causes of material blockage.

[0003] The clearing device corresponding to the quicklime silo in the prior art acts on the blocking points such as the bonding layer and the hardened area by combining water and air. The sprayed working medium has a large water content, which causes the quicklime in the quicklime silo to react with water. Quicklime is a strong alkaline substance. When it comes into contact with water, it will react chemically to produce calcium hydroxide and release a large amount of heat. Once the quicklime reacts with water and deteriorates, it will seriously affect the quality of steelmaking and does not meet the requirements of the steelmaking process. Utility Model Content

[0016] Further, the plurality of gas injection devices include a plurality of gas injection devices arranged at intervals in a direction surrounding the quicklime silo and a plurality of gas injection devices arranged at intervals in a height direction along the quicklime silo.

[0017] Furthermore, the gas injection device is a gas spray gun, and the injection portion of the gas injection device is a nozzle of the spray gun.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the quicklime silo clearing system provided in this application are:

[0019] Since the quicklime silo clearing system provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes a nitrogen source, a booster and a gas storage tank which are sequentially arranged on the clearing nitrogen working pipeline along the clearing nitrogen conveying direction, a gas injection device is arranged on the clearing nitrogen working pipeline and is located behind the gas storage tank along the clearing nitrogen conveying direction, and the injection part of the gas injection device penetrates the silo wall of the quicklime silo to lead to the interior of the quicklime silo, the quicklime silo clearing system can provide nitrogen through the nitrogen source, and the nitrogen is increased in nitrogen pressure after passing through the booster and enters the gas storage tank, and finally the high-pressure nitrogen is injected into the quicklime silo through the injection part of the gas injection device, directly acting on the blockage points such as the bonding layer and the compacted area of ​​the quicklime silo to clear the quicklime silo, the quicklime silo clearing system uses nitrogen as the clearing working medium to clear the silo instead of using a water-gas mixture as the clearing working medium to clear the silo, thereby avoiding the occurrence of the deterioration phenomenon caused by the reaction of quicklime and water in the quicklime silo due to the large water content of the injected clearing working medium.

[0020] In a further solution, since an air content detector is installed at the air outlet on the silo wall, the air content detector can at least detect the nitrogen content in the air, so the air composition at the air outlet can be detected in real time.

In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0044] In order to illustrate the technical solution described in this application, a detailed description is given below in conjunction with specific drawings and embodiments.

[0045] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 The utility model embodiment provides a quicklime silo clearing system, which includes:

[0046] The quicklime silo 100 is used to store quicklime, but can also be used to store other suitable materials;

[0047] A nitrogen working pipeline for clearing blockage and a nitrogen source, a booster and a gas storage tank 13 arranged in sequence on the nitrogen working pipeline for clearing blockage along the nitrogen delivery direction for clearing blockage;

[0048] The gas injection device 1 is arranged on the nitrogen working pipeline for clearing blockage and is located after the gas storage tank 13 along the nitrogen conveying direction for clearing blockage. The injection part of the gas injection device 1 penetrates the silo wall of the quicklime silo 100 to lead to the interior of the quicklime silo 100.

[0049] Since the quicklime silo clearing system provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes a nitrogen source, a booster and a gas storage tank 13 which are sequentially arranged on the clearing nitrogen working pipeline along the clearing nitrogen delivery direction, the gas injection device 1 is arranged on the clearing nitrogen working pipeline and is located after the gas storage tank 13 along the clearing nitrogen delivery direction, and the injection part of the gas injection device 1 penetrates the silo wall of the quicklime silo 100 to lead to the interior of the quicklime silo 100, the quicklime silo clearing system can provide nitrogen through the nitrogen source, and the nitrogen is increased in pressure after passing through the booster. After the force is applied, the nitrogen enters the gas storage tank 13, and finally the high-pressure nitrogen is injected into the quicklime silo 100 through the injection part of the gas injection device 1, and directly acts on the blockage points such as the bonding layer and the compacted area of ​​the quicklime silo 100 to clear the blockage of the quicklime silo 100. The quicklime silo clearing system adopts nitrogen as the clearing working medium for the silo clearing instead of using a water-gas mixture as the clearing working medium for the silo clearing, thereby avoiding the high water content of the injected clearing working medium, which leads to the deterioration of the quicklime in the quicklime silo caused by the reaction of quicklime and water.

Based on the preset nitrogen content threshold, the proportional control valve 4 is controlled to be opened or closed and the opening and closing size of the air, the oxygen content in the silo is adjusted, and the air ratio adjusts the opening and closing size of the oxygen outlet proportional valve to make the air meet the standard.

[0052] A specific example is: when it is detected that the nitrogen content in the air is higher than 78% (preset nitrogen content threshold), the proportional control valve 4 is controlled to open and spray oxygen into the silo to stabilize the air composition within the range and eliminate the hidden danger of hypoxia and suffocation of surrounding workers. It can be understood that the preset nitrogen content threshold can be flexibly set as needed.
