AI Technical Summary
During the pouring process of the ingot betting, the seal between the ladle drain and the central injection pipe is not tight, causing external air to enter the molten steel, causing secondary oxidation and affecting the quality of the ingot.
A kind of argon gas protection device for betting on the betting steel ingot is designed, including a sealing cover, a ladle ingot and a central injection pipe. The center of the sealing cover is equipped with a central hole that cooperates with the ladle drain. Two gas chambers are arranged around the central hole. The inner gas chamber is connected with the argon gas pipeline. The outer gas chamber is provided with a nozzle under the outer gas chamber. The sprayed argon gas forms an argon protective gas curtain around the central injection tube.
By sealing the two air chambers of the cover, the argon gas is uniform and completely covered the water outlet, isolating the external air, avoiding secondary oxidation of the molten steel, and ensuring the quality of the ingot.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an argon gas protection device for a water outlet of a ladle for pouring steel ingots, belonging to the technical field of die casting production in the metallurgical industry. Background Art
[0002] The pouring of steel ingots is carried out through the center pouring pipe, which is a cast iron pipe lined with hollow refractory bricks used to collect the molten steel from the ladle outlet during pouring. The upper part is a funnel brick. The height of the center pouring pipe is 200-300mm higher than the ingot mold, and the inner diameter is 150-200mm. During the pouring process, if the seal between the ladle outlet and the center pouring pipe is not tight, air will enter the molten steel, causing secondary oxidation of the molten steel and affecting the quality of the ingot. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide an argon protection device for the water inlet of a ladle for pouring steel ingots, which can isolate the air around the water inlet of the ladle during the pouring process, prevent external air from entering the molten steel and causing secondary oxidation of the molten steel, thereby solving the problems existing in the background technology.
[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is:
[0005] An argon gas protection device for a ladle outlet for pouring steel ingots comprises a ladle outlet, a sealing cover and a center pouring pipe. The sealing cover is arranged between the ladle outlet and the center pouring pipe. A center hole matching the ladle outlet is provided at the center of the sealing cover. Two circles of air chambers are provided around the center hole. The two circles of air chambers are connected by a connecting channel. One circle of air chambers is connected to an argon gas pipeline, and a nozzle is provided below the other circle of air chambers.
[0006] The two air chambers surrounding the central hole of the sealing cover are an inner air chamber and an outer air chamber respectively. The inner air chamber and the outer air chamber are connected through a connecting channel. The inner air chamber is connected to an argon gas pipeline. A nozzle is provided below the outer air chamber.
[0007] The nozzle below the outer ring air chamber faces the center injection pipe.
[0008] The argon gas ejected from the nozzle below the outer ring air chamber forms an argon gas protection air curtain around the middle injection pipe.
[0009] The sealing cover is a circular structure, the outer diameter of which matches the center injection pipe, and the inner diameter of which matches the ladle outlet.
[0010] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that during the pouring process, the argon protective gas is evenly and completely covered around the water inlet through the two air chambers of the sealing cover, which plays a role in isolating the air, thereby preventing external air from entering the molten steel and causing secondary oxidation of the molten steel, thereby ensuring the quality of the ingot.
