Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of industrial heating furnaces and relates to a heating furnace heating process safety monitoring system. Background Art
[0002] After the heating furnace is built for the first time, the furnace body refractory materials will be baked to remove free water, crystal water, etc. in the refractory materials to ensure the performance of the refractory materials and increase the life of the heating furnace refractory materials. The baking cycle depends on the refractory materials used in the furnace body, and the baking cycle is usually 21 days.
[0003] The heating furnace is in normal production. In order to ensure the normal operation of the equipment or clean the iron oxide scale in the furnace, the furnace will be stopped regularly for maintenance and slag removal to ensure stable operation of the equipment, normal combustion of the burner, and uniform heating of the billet. The furnace is usually shut down for maintenance at an interval of about 6 months, and the shutdown time is generally fixed at 4-6 days. After the shutdown, the furnace will face the process of heating up, which usually takes 3-4 days to heat the heating furnace to ~1250℃.
[0004] The heating process of the heating furnace after the first construction or the heating process of the heating furnace after the shutdown and maintenance can usually be divided into three stages: low temperature stage, transition stage, and high temperature stage. The low temperature stage generally refers to the range from room temperature to ~600℃. This heating process requires the heating burner of the heating furnace to heat and heat up. Because the heating furnace is in a low temperature state, it is easy for the burner to be out of flame and gas leakage to occur, which poses a safety hazard. In addition, the heating furnace workshops of domestic steel enterprises use manual on-site duty observation during the low temperature heating process. Due to the long heating cycle, the number of operators involved is large, and it is easy to cause strong fatigue of operators. The safety risk factor of gas use is high, and safety accidents are more likely to occur. Utility Model Content

The heating furnace body 1 includes an end wall steel structure, a furnace bottom steel structure, a side wall steel structure, a furnace top steel structure, furnace body refractory materials and furnace doors (charging furnace door and unloading furnace door) at both ends of the heating furnace body 1;
[0028] The continuous production heating system 2 includes a continuous production heating burner, an empty gas pipeline, a pipeline valve, a pipeline flow detection device, etc.; the schematic diagram only shows the continuous production heating burner, and does not show the empty gas pipeline, the pipeline valve, the pipeline medium flow detection device, etc.;

[0030] The heating furnace includes a conventional combustion heating furnace, a regenerative combustion heating furnace, and also includes a walking beam heating furnace and a pusher steel heating furnace.
[0031] The heating process of the heating furnace after the first construction or the heating process of the heating furnace after the shutdown and maintenance can usually be divided into three stages: low temperature stage, transition stage, and high temperature stage. The low temperature stage generally refers to the range from room temperature to ~600℃. In this heating process, the heating furnace adopts the heating burner of the heating system 3 to supply heat. The temperature in the furnace is ensured by adjusting the valve opening on the air gas pipeline connected to the heating burner. The valve opening is directly proportional to the temperature in the furnace. In this process, the charging furnace door and the discharging furnace door of the heating furnace are all opened. At this time, the flame state of the heating burner in the furnace can be directly observed through the charging furnace door and the discharging furnace door from the outside of the heating furnace. In the prior art, it is usually observed in real time by the naked eye by the operator.
[0032] The key point of this application is to provide a safety monitoring system for the heating furnace heating process, including a flame monitoring system 4 and a flame alarm system connected to the flame monitoring system. The flame monitoring system is installed outside the heating furnace and monitors the flame state of the furnace start-up heating burner through the door of the heating furnace loading furnace door or the door of the discharging furnace door.
[0033] A data central system 6 is also provided between the flame monitoring system 4 and the flame alarm system. The flame monitoring system 4 is connected to the data central system 6 via a flame signal / image transmission system 5, and the data central system 6 is further connected to the flame alarm system via a flame signal / image transmission system 5. By providing the data central system 6, remote safety monitoring of the heating furnace heating process and rapid data processing can be achieved.
[0034] Specifically, the flame monitoring system 4 includes a flame detector and a flame signal converter connected to the flame detector, the flame detector is used to monitor the flame state of the furnace start-up heating burner, and transmit the corresponding flame image signal to the flame signal converter, the flame signal converter converts the flame image into digital signals "0" and "1", respectively indicating that the flame is extinguished and the flame is normal;
[0035] The flame detector can be configured as a high-speed camera to monitor the flame state of the furnace start-up heating burner in real time.
[0036] The flame signal / image transmission system 5 includes a flame image transmission system and a flame signal transmission system, which are used to transmit the flame image signal and the digital signal of the flame detector and the flame signal converter to the data central system 6 respectively.
[0037] The flame alarm system comprises an operating console 7 , a flame operating console sound and light alarm system 8 and a flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system 9 arranged on the operating console 7 .
[0038] The data central system 6 transmits the digital signal and the flame image signal to the flame operating console sound and light alarm system 8 and the flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system 9 respectively through the flame signal / image transmission system 5 .
[0039] The flame operating console sound and light alarm system 8 comprises a flame signal identification program and a flame sound and light alarm system, and the flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system 9 comprises a flame screen HMI display system and a flame screen HMI alarm system.
[0040] In this embodiment, 6 sets of furnace startup heating burners 3 are provided, namely the first furnace startup heating burner 3.1, the second furnace startup heating burner 3.2, the third furnace startup heating burner 3.3, the fourth furnace startup heating burner 3.4, the fifth furnace startup heating burner 3.5 and the sixth furnace startup heating burner 3.6, wherein the first furnace startup heating burner 3.1, the second furnace startup heating burner 3.2 and the third furnace startup heating burner 3.3 are arranged on the rolling mill side of the heating furnace, and the fourth furnace startup heating burner 3.4, the fifth furnace startup heating burner 3.5 and the sixth furnace startup heating burner 3.6 are arranged on the non-rolling mill side of the heating furnace.
[0041] In other embodiments, the furnace start-up heating burners 3 may also be provided in 4 sets or 8 sets, which are respectively provided on the rolling mill side and the non-rolling mill side of the heating furnace.
[0042] The flame monitoring system 4 consists of two sets, namely a rolling mill side flame monitoring system and a non-rolling mill side flame monitoring system. The rolling mill side flame monitoring system is arranged obliquely toward the non-rolling mill side of the heating furnace to monitor the flame states of the fourth baking furnace startup heating burner 3.4, the fifth baking furnace startup heating burner 3.5 and the sixth baking furnace startup heating burner 3.6, and the non-rolling mill side flame monitoring system is arranged obliquely toward the rolling mill side of the heating furnace to monitor the flame states of the first baking furnace startup heating burner 3.1, the second baking furnace startup heating burner 3.2 and the third baking furnace startup heating burner 3.3.
[0043] Correspondingly, the flame operating console sound and light alarm system 8 and the flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system 9 respectively have multiple flame sound and light alarm subsystems and flame screen HMI display subsystems corresponding to the first furnace start-up heating burner 3.1, the second furnace start-up heating burner 3.2, the third furnace start-up heating burner 3.3, the fourth furnace start-up heating burner 3.4, the fifth furnace start-up heating burner 3.5 and the sixth furnace start-up heating burner 3.6.
[0044] The monitoring method of the heating furnace heating process safety monitoring system is as follows:
[0045] 1) When the heating furnace is in the process of heating up, the furnace start-up heating burners 3 on the rolling mill side and the non-rolling mill side operate normally, the flame monitoring system on the rolling mill side and the flame monitoring system on the non-rolling mill side will use the flame signal / image transmission system 5 to transmit the digital signal "1" and the normal flame combustion image to the data central system 6, and the data central system 6 will transmit the corresponding digital signal "1" and the normal flame combustion image to the operating console 7. The flame operating console sound and light alarm system 8 will remain silent after receiving the digital signal "1", and the flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system 9 will receive the flame combustion image and display the image in the flame screen HMI display system;
[0046] 2) When the heating furnace is in the process of heating up, one or more of the heating burners 3 on the rolling mill side and the non-rolling mill side go out, and the flame monitoring system 4 on the corresponding side transmits the digital signal "0" and the flame extinction image to the data central system 6 by means of the flame signal / image transmission system 5. The data central system 6 transmits the corresponding digital signal "0" and the flame extinction image to the operating console 7. The flame operating console sound and light alarm system 8 receives the digital signal "0" and makes a buzzing sound and keeps flashing red, continuously alarming. The flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system receives the flame extinction image and displays the image on the flame screen HMI display system. At the same time, the flame screen HMI alarm system is activated so that the flame screen HMI display system displays an "exclamation mark" alarm and other reminders.
[0047] It should be noted that the heating process includes the heating process after the heating furnace is first built and the heating process when the heating furnace is started after being shut down for maintenance. The heating process specifically refers to the range from room temperature to 600°C, excluding 600°C to 1250°C, and during the heating process, the charging furnace door and the discharging furnace door of the heating furnace are all open. The flame monitoring system 4 arranged outside the heating furnace can directly monitor the flame state of the heating burner 3 for starting up the baking furnace in the heating furnace, while the continuous production heating burner does not supply heat at this time (i.e., no flame is emitted, thereby not affecting the monitoring of the heating burner 3 for starting up the baking furnace by the flame monitoring system 4).
[0048] Secondly, the flame monitoring system 4, flame signal / image transmission system 5, data center system 6, operation console 7, flame operation console sound and light alarm system 8 and flame monitoring screen HMI alarm system 9 used in this application can all be purchased from mature systems on the market and adapted for use. The key to this application is to combine and configure each system to form a system for safety monitoring of the heating furnace heating process, rather than the specific structure or principle of each subsystem, so the specific working principle will not be repeated;
[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
