Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a stopper rod of a continuous casting machine, in particular to a stopper rod of a continuous casting machine. 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 nozzle. In order to control the steel flow to stabilize continuous casting, a stopper rod is installed above the tundish nozzle. By adjusting the gap between it and the nozzle, the purpose of controlling the flow rate of molten steel is achieved. When the stopper rod is inserted into the tundish, it will be corroded and impacted by the molten steel, causing the stopper rod to fall off and be damaged. After damage, the stopper rod needs to be replaced, but when replacement is needed, the entire tundish needs to be replaced. For example, the utility model with the publication number CN 210435358 U records a tundish that is easy to replace the stopper rod, belonging to the technical field of tundish equipment. The utility model includes a tundish, a stopper rod, a first cross arm, and a second cross arm. The stopper rod includes a stopper rod body and a nested body, and the nested body is sleeved on the outside of the stopper rod body; the first cross arm is connected to the stopper rod body, and the second cross arm is connected to the nested body; a dam is provided on the inner lining of the tundish, and the dam is located at the entrance of the submerged water inlet. In this device, once the nested body or the stopper rod body is damaged, the entire nested body or the stopper rod body needs to be replaced, resulting in unnecessary waste and increased costs. For this reason, the utility model provides a stopper rod for a continuous casting machine to overcome this technical problem. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide a stopper rod for a continuous casting machine, so as to save the replacement cost of the stopper rod.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] A stopper rod for a continuous casting machine comprises a stopper rod body, a cross arm and a plug head, wherein a high temperature resistant air pipe is vertically connected to the plug head, a high temperature resistant sleeve is arranged on the outside of the high temperature resistant air pipe, a gap is arranged between the high temperature resistant sleeve and the high temperature resistant air pipe, and a heat insulating filler layer is arranged in the gap, the stopper rod body is composed of a plurality of stopper rod sleeves, the stopper rod sleeves are arranged on the high temperature resistant sleeves, a stopper rod sleeve top cover is arranged on the top cover of the stopper rod sleeve, studs are fixedly arranged on both sides of the stopper rod sleeve top cover, the studs pass upward through the cross arm and are fixed by nuts, and the high temperature resistant air pipe passes upward through the stopper rod sleeve top cover and the cross arm.
[0006] Furthermore, the high temperature resistant casing is also provided with an end sheath, and the end sheath is located between the two stopper rod sheaths.
[0007] Furthermore, a vent hole is provided at the center of the plug, and the vent hole is connected to the high temperature resistant air pipe.
[0008] Furthermore, an external thread is provided above the outer wall of the high temperature resistant air pipe, and the top cover of the stopper rod sleeve is connected to the external thread of the high temperature resistant air pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, a heat insulating sleeve is provided on the cross arm.
[0010] Furthermore, the thermal insulation filler layer is a compacted zirconium oxide powder layer.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0012] The utility model is provided with a high temperature resistant sleeve and a high temperature resistant air pipe. The high temperature resistant air pipe is connected with the air vent of the plug head so as to blow argon into the molten steel. The stopper rod body is composed of a plurality of stopper rod sleeves. A plurality of stopper rod sleeves are sleeved on the outer side of the high temperature resistant sleeve. Therefore, when a section of the stopper rod sleeve is damaged and slag falls off, only the section of the stopper rod sleeve needs to be replaced, thereby eliminating the need to replace the entire stopper rod, thus saving replacement costs.
