Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of blast furnace iron ditch technology, in particular to a blast furnace iron ditch venting structure. Background Art

[0002] With the development of steel smelting technology, blast furnaces, as key equipment in the long-process steelmaking process, are gradually developing towards large-scale and long-life. Among them, the taphole, as an important furnace front facility of the blast furnace, has received more and more attention. The main function of the taphole is to separate the slag and iron mixture flowing out of the blast furnace taphole, and then send the slag and molten iron to the ladle and slag treatment facilities for treatment.

[0003] The high-temperature molten iron and slag that gushed out from the blast furnace taphole first enter the main ditch of the tapping site, causing the main ditch refractory materials to be in a high-temperature working environment. Production practice shows that the main reason for the damage of the permanent layer of the main ditch is the long-term chemical erosion and scouring of the working layer by high-temperature slag iron, and the thermal stress caused by the thermal expansion and contraction, rapid cooling and heating of the refractory materials and steel troughs, which causes cracks in the refractory materials. Therefore, to extend the life of the main ditch, it is necessary to prevent the refractory materials from being chemically eroded by slag iron and mechanically damaged by thermal stress and thermal shock. In order to increase the service life of the main ditch and reduce the replacement frequency of the main ditch refractory materials, the main ditch generally adopts cooling treatment. The existing cooling methods mostly adopt natural cooling or water cooling, among which water cooling uses cooling water as a coolant. These two methods have low effects and efficiency, and are prone to cause greater damage to the tapping ditch, greatly shortening the service life of the tapping ditch, which is not conducive to the normal and orderly production of the blast furnace. For example, the natural air cooling method, since the iron outlet ditch is an open structure, the high-temperature harmful gases and dust generated during operation will scatter, which will have a significant adverse impact on the surrounding production environment and the health of the workers; while the cooling water cooling, when the refractory material in the steel shell is damaged, it is easy for water to come into contact with molten iron and explode, causing an accident, and after long-term operation, the inner wall of the water pipe will rust and cause blockage, thus affecting the cooling effect.

[0004] To ensure the safety of iron tapping, we chose air cooling. Patents CN201821570235.4 and CN216039655 U both proposed a method of air cooling the iron trough, but these methods did not explain the source and recovery of the cooling gas, but simply proposed natural air cooling. In order to protect the cooling effect, solving the cooling effect of forced air cooling and the treatment of dusty air after cooling has become an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a blast furnace trough ventilation structure, overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art, realizes efficient ventilation in the iron trough cooling process, enables the cooling space outside the iron trough steel shell to be quickly and evenly cooled, utilizes the existing compressed air as the cooling medium to cool the blast furnace trough, has a small workload for equipment transformation, and uniformly discharges the dust-containing air after cooling into the suction duct of the dust removal system of the blast furnace iron-making yard, thereby solving the problem of environmental pollution.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions:

While ensuring the cooling of the iron channel, it also solves the pollution problem of dusty air. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
