Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of air-permeable bricks, in particular to a double-core air-permeable brick. Background Art

[0002] The main reason for using air bricks in the ladle is to improve the quality of molten steel and increase production efficiency. First of all, argon blowing at the bottom of the ladle is an important part of the molten steel refining process, and bottom blowing air bricks are the most important functional components of this process. By blowing argon into the molten steel to stir the molten steel, the temperature and composition of the molten steel are uniform, thereby improving the quality of the molten steel.

[0003] After searching, the application number is "202122861639.7", which provides a double-core breathable brick. The inert gas passes through the second gas source pipe 6 through the first gas source pipe 5, and part of it enters the second core brick 3, and the other part enters the ladle through the first core brick 2. If an accident occurs and the external gas source suddenly stops supplying gas, the molten steel may seep downward from the first core brick 2. When the molten steel moves downward along the internal gap of the first core brick 2, it will compress the gas in the second core brick 3. The gas pressure buffering effect can prevent part of the molten steel from seeping downward. At the same time, when the molten steel enters the first gas source pipe 5, due to its tortuous design, the molten steel will gradually cool down and solidify while flowing, thereby preventing the molten steel from leaking downward.

[0004] The gas is introduced into the second gas source pipe through the box, so that the gas is discharged into the ladle from the gap of the brick core. When a single gas source pipe is used, when the external gas supply is unstable, the molten steel in the ladle can easily penetrate into the brick core, so that the gap inside the brick core is blocked, affecting the gas supply, and new air permeable bricks need to be replaced, which increases the workload of the staff. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcoming in the prior art that a single gas source easily causes molten steel to penetrate into the air brick when the gas pressure is unstable, one of the purposes of the utility model is to provide a double-core air brick.

[0006] One of the purposes of the utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: a double-core air-permeable brick, comprising a brick body: two placement grooves are provided on the inner side of the brick body, brick cores are provided on the inner sides of the two placement grooves, and a conveying unit is provided on the inner side of the brick body;

[0007] The conveying unit includes a rectangular hole, which is opened on the front side of the brick body. A support block is arranged on the inner side of the rectangular hole. Two conveying cylinders are fixedly connected to the middle part of the support block. A plurality of air holes are opened on the upper side of the conveying cylinder. A connecting pipe is fixedly connected between the two conveying cylinders and on both the front and rear sides. An air source pipe is fixedly connected to the middle part of the connecting pipes on both the front and rear sides. Solenoid valves are arranged on the outer sides of the left and right ends of the connecting pipes on both the front and rear sides. An air pressure sensor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the conveying cylinder.

[0008] According to the double-core air-permeable brick, a mounting hole is provided on the upper side of the support block, so as to facilitate the installation of the solenoid valve.

[0009] According to the double-core air-permeable brick, the connecting pipe is arranged in a U-shaped structure.

[0010] According to the double-core breathable connected brick described in the claim, a connecting rod is provided between the support block and the brick body, so as to facilitate the positioning of the support block.

[0011] According to the double-core air-permeable brick, the support block is slidably connected to the rectangular hole.

[0012] According to the double-core air-permeable brick, the outer end of the air source pipe passes through the outer side of the supporting block.

[0013] Beneficial effects:

[0014] By providing a support block, two conveying tubes, a connecting pipe, a gas source pipe, a solenoid valve and a pressure sensor, when one gas source is unstable, the other gas source pipe can convey gas into the air brick to make the gas pressure stable during gas conveying and avoid affecting the quality of molten steel.

[0015] Additional aspects and advantages of the present invention will be given in part in the following description, and in part will become apparent from the following description, or will be learned through the practice of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
