Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of auxiliary equipment of a straightening machine, and in particular relates to a dummy rod bracket and a bracket casting mould. Background Art
[0002] The dummy bar is an important device for continuous steel casting and ironmaking, which consists of a dummy head, a transition piece and a bar body. Before pouring, the dummy head and part of the transition piece enter the crystallizer to form the movable inner bottom of the crystallizer. After the pouring begins, the molten steel solidifies and condenses with the dummy head. The straightening machine pulls the dummy bar to continuously pull the billet out of the crystallizer until the dummy head passes through the back of the straightening machine and is separated from the billet.
[0003] In order to ensure that the rod of the dummy rod moves in the specified direction during operation, a dummy rod bracket is installed at the specified position of the straightening machine, and the rod moves along the top surface of the bracket. However, the conventional bracket is welded by multiple steel plates, and the thickness of the steel plates is thin. After long-term use, the bracket wears out, causing the guide surface of the bracket to tilt, causing the straightening machine to shift, and the dummy rod cannot move along the preset path, causing the straightening angle to deviate, affecting the straightening effect; in addition, the bracket is spliced by multiple steel plates, and affected by the welding process and welding level, bubbles or inclusions are easily generated at the weld, the overall quality of the bracket is low, and it is easy to break at the weld during use, and the service life is short. The weld needs to be polished after welding. Frequent replacement or maintenance of steel plates affects work efficiency and increases the labor intensity of the staff. Utility Model Content

[0036] Please also read Figures 1 to 7 The dummy bar bracket provided by the utility model is now described. It includes a support seat 1 and two guide blocks 2. The guide block 2 includes an integrally cast top plate 21 and a plurality of support plates 22. The plurality of support plates 22 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the top plate 21. The bottom ends of the plurality of support plates 22 are connected to the support seat 1. The top of the guide block 2 forms a guide surface. A slag flow gap 3 is formed between the two top plates 21.
[0037] It should be noted that the dummy bar moves along the guide surface.
[0038] It should be noted that the top plate 21 and the support plate 22 of the guide block 2 are integrally cast and formed, and there is no need to consider the effect of the thickness of the steel plate on the welding difficulty during welding.
[0039] It should be noted that there are gaps between the support plates 22, which can reduce manufacturing costs and weight on the one hand, and can dissipate heat to prevent the dummy bar bracket from being overheated on the other hand.
[0040] In specific implementation, multiple support plates 22 are distributed at intervals, which can spread the pressure of the top plate 21 and improve the support effect on the top plate 21. Each support plate 22 is subjected to the same force, and there will be no force concentration, thereby increasing the service life.
[0041] Compared with the prior art, the ingot rod bracket provided in this embodiment provides an integrally cast bracket, in which the support plate 22 and the top plate 21 are integrally cast, and the staff does not need to process and weld, nor does the staff need to grind the weld, which reduces the work intensity, is easy to manufacture, and reduces the production difficulty; the bracket of this application has no weld, has high overall strength, long service life, is not easy to deform, and will not break the support plate 22 or the top plate 21, thereby extending the service life. This bracket has no welding requirements, and the wall thickness can be controlled during casting. The wall thickness of the top plate 21 is greater than that of a conventional steel plate, and the wear effect is small, which increases the service life; the setting of the slag flow gap 3 facilitates the falling of welding slag, avoids the accumulation of welding slag on the guide surface to affect the movement of the ingot rod, improves the movement stability of the ingot rod, and facilitates the staff to remove the residue.
[0042] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5The top of the support plate 22 is in conformity with the bottom of the top plate 21. The bottom of the top plate 21 is in conformity with the bottom of the support plate 22, so that the support plate 22 stably supports the top plate 21 in the length direction of the top plate 21, thereby improving the overall structural strength.
[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top plate 21 includes a first guide plate 211, a second guide plate 212 and a third guide plate 213 which are connected in sequence along its length direction. The first guide plate 211 gradually tilts from bottom to top in a direction close to the second guide plate 212. The plate surface of the second guide plate 212 is parallel to the horizontal direction. The third guide plate 213 gradually tilts from top to bottom in a direction away from the second guide plate 212. The first guide plate 211, the second guide plate 212 and the third guide plate 213 form a trapezoidal structure. The dummy bar passes through the first guide plate 211, the second guide plate 212 and the third guide plate 213 in sequence, and enters the dummy bar bracket in the next straightening machine along the second guide plate 212. The dummy bar is guided to move by setting a plurality of dummy bar brackets, so that the cast billet can be guided to be bent.
[0044] During specific implementation, the first guide plate 211 and the third guide plate 213 also play the role of dropping materials. A part of the residue falls from the slag flow gap, and the other part falls along the first guide plate 211 and the third guide plate 213 respectively, so as to prevent the residue from staying on the second guide plate 212 and affecting the moving direction of the dummy rod.
[0045] In a specific implementation, the included angle between the first guide plate 211 and the horizontal plane is 28°, and the included angle between the third guide plate 213 and the horizontal plane is 30°.
[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 The upper surface of the top plate 21 is provided with a wear-resistant layer 23. The provision of the wear-resistant layer 23 can delay the wear of the top plate 21, extend the overall service life of the bracket, further increase the service life, reduce the number of replacements, and save costs.
[0047] Optionally, the wear-resistant layer 23 is formed by spraying metal particles, and the formed wear-resistant layer 23 has the characteristics of high strength and corrosion resistance. It can also be made of polymer composite materials.
[0048] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 A fixing member 24 is further provided between the support plate 22 and the top plate 21, and the fixing member 24 includes a first plate 251 integrally formed with the support plate 22 and a second plate 252 integrally formed with the top plate 21. The first plate 251 and the second plate 252 can improve the connection strength between the support plate 22 and the top plate 21, increase the contact area between the top plate 21 and the support plate 22, further expand the top force bearing area of the support plate 22, and improve the support effect of the support plate 22.
[0049] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 The bottom of the support plate 22 is provided with a mounting groove 221, and the plurality of mounting grooves 221 are respectively plugged and matched with the support seat 1. The setting of the mounting groove 221 can increase the contact area between the support plate 22 and the support seat 1 and improve the connection strength. At the same time, each support plate is provided with a mounting groove 221, and the plurality of mounting grooves 221 are arranged in sequence along the same direction, which can guide the connection angle and installation direction of the support seat 1. The installation effect and the support effect of the support seat 1 are improved.
[0050] In specific implementation, the support seat 1 can also be integrally formed with the two guide blocks 2 .
[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The two ends of the support seat 1 are respectively provided with mounting holes 111 penetrating in the up-down direction. The setting of the mounting holes 111 allows the support seat 1 to be fixed on the straightening machine through fasteners, so that the support seat 1 and the straightening machine are relatively fixed, and the stability of the dummy bar bracket during use is improved.
[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The two ends of the top plate 21 are respectively provided with an integrally formed baffle plate 26, the plate surface of the baffle plate 26 is parallel to the vertical direction, and the bottom of the baffle plate 26 is at the same height as the bottom of the support plate 22. The baffle plate 26 can shield the support plate 22, prevent the slag from entering the gap between the support plates 22, and reduce the cleaning difficulty and cleaning intensity.
[0053] During implementation, the two baffles 22 have the same size.
[0054] In a specific implementation, the bottom end of the baffle 26 corresponding to the first guide plate 211 can be at the same height as the bottom of the support plate 22 . The first guide plate 211 serves as a feed end, and the baffle 26 can block slag to prevent the slag from entering between the support plates 22 .
[0055] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support seat 1 includes two mounting plates 11, the length direction of the mounting plates 11 is parallel to the thickness direction of the support plate 22, and the two mounting plates 11 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the top plate 21. The two mounting plates 11 support the support plate 22 from both ends, thereby improving the support stability. The two mounting plates 11 have four mounting holes 111, which further improve the connection point between the support seat 1 and the straightening machine, improve the connection strength, and thus improve the working stability of the dummy bar bracket.
