[0004] However, the above-mentioned prior art patent uses a rotating cutter disc to perform milling cleaning on the residue in the smelting furnace, which requires high operating skills. Improper operation can easily cause damage to the furnace body. The initial furnace wall surface is first cleaned along a straight line with a certain amount of cutting, and the cleaning of the residue adhering to the entire metal smelting furnace wall is completed in three feeding movements. This cannot solve the problem of damage to the furnace body caused by improper control of the furnace cleaning force. In addition, the use of this prior art also requires consideration of driving the cutter disc to rotate the drive device and the transmission device, which is difficult to design and has high manufacturing costs.
[0005] The patent number is CN202123221314.9 and the patent name is a prior art patent for a cleaning device for a smelting furnace. It discloses a cleaning device for a smelting furnace, including a cleaning plate, a connecting rod and a handle rod. The bottom end of the cleaning plate is provided with a cleaning shovel head that slides elastically therewith, and the rear end of the cleaning plate is provided with a protrusion, which is detachably connected to one end of the connecting rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is provided with an adjusting rod, and one end of the adjusting rod is elastically plugged into the inside of the handle rod and fastened by a fixing rod. The utility model adopts a retractable cleaning shovel head design, and cooperates with a buffer spring to facilitate shock absorption and buffering, and improve service life; it adopts a retractable adjusting rod design, which can be driven by the U-shaped handle to adjust the adjusting rod, so that the residue can be pulled out through the cleaning shovel head. It can automatically reset after use, which is simple and effective.
[0006] The above-mentioned prior art patent has a slot inside the cleaning plate for plugging with the cleaning shovel head, and slide grooves are respectively provided on both sides of the slot, a pulley fixing block is provided on the cleaning shovel head, and a pulley is provided on the pulley fixing block for cooperating with the slide groove, so as to facilitate the movement and adjustment of the cleaning shovel head, and a buffer spring is provided inside the slide groove and connected with the pulley fixing block to achieve a buffering effect. However, in actual use, the cleaning shovel head needs to apply a certain force to the residue in order to clean the residue from the furnace wall or furnace bottom, and the setting of the buffer spring will affect the force applied by the cleaning shovel head to the residue, which in turn affects the cleaning effect of the cleaning shovel head on the residue. In addition, the U-shaped handle is relatively close to the cleaning plate, but when in use, the cleaning plate needs to be extended into the interior of the smelting furnace, and the smelting furnace generally has a certain depth, so the U-shaped handle will generally follow the cleaning plate into the interior of the smelting furnace, causing inconvenience in operation and easy to cause harm to the operator.

When in use, the operator operates through the rear end of the support tube 7, extends the furnace cleaning shovel 1 and the baffle 2 to the position inside the smelting furnace where the residue needs to be cleaned, and cleans the residue through the shovel head plate 5. The furnace cleaning shovel 1 and the shovel head plate 5 can be driven to rotate through the support shaft 11 to change the cleaning angle. In addition, other structures can be set to allow the support shaft 11 to be positioned after sliding, so that the angles of the furnace cleaning shovel 1 and the shovel head plate 5 can be positioned after adjustment, such as setting an external thread and a nut at the rear end of the support shaft 11 to achieve positioning after the support shaft 11 slides.
[0030] The utility model includes a support assembly, which includes a fixed plate Ⅰ8, a fixed plate Ⅱ9 and a square tube 13. Two square tubes 13 are provided, and the two square tubes 13 are symmetrical. The fixed plate Ⅰ8 and the fixed plate Ⅱ9 are welded between the two square tubes 13. The fixed plate Ⅰ8 and the fixed plate Ⅱ9 are parallel. The fixed plate Ⅰ8 is arranged in front of the fixed plate Ⅱ9. A through hole Ⅰ801 is provided on the fixed plate Ⅰ8, and a through hole Ⅱ901 is provided on the fixed plate Ⅱ9. The through hole Ⅰ801 and the through hole Ⅱ901 are coaxial.

[0031] The setting of the support assembly supports the furnace cleaning shovel 1, the baffle 2 and the support tube 7. At the same time, the forklift's fork arm is inserted into the two square tubes 13 to realize the use of a forklift to drive the utility model to perform furnace cleaning operations. Since the support tube 7 has a certain length and considering the weight of the furnace cleaning shovel 1 and the baffle 2, the connection at the rear end of the support tube 7 needs to consider load-bearing and stable connection. In order to solve the connection stability of the support tube 7 and the support assembly, the utility model provides two support plates, a fixed plate Ⅰ8 and a fixed plate Ⅱ9, to support the support tube 7. The setting of the fixed plate Ⅲ10 and the waist-shaped groove 1001 is used to position the support shaft 11.

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, when the sliding support shaft 11 drives the furnace cleaning shovel 1 to change its angle, the supporting short tube 14 will enter the interior of the supporting tube 7. Therefore, the outer diameter of the supporting short tube 14 is required to be smaller than the inner diameter of the supporting tube 7, the length of the pin shaft 15 is required to be smaller than the inner diameter of the supporting tube 7, and the inner diameter of the front end of the supporting tube 7 is provided with a rounded corner 701, so as to prevent the supporting short tube 14 and the pin shaft 15 from interfering with the inner diameter of the supporting tube 7.
[0036] In the utility model, the path of angle change of the furnace cleaning shovel 1 is an arc with the rotation axis of the hinge 3 as the center and the straight-line distance between the rotation axis of the hinge 3 and the axis of the pin shaft 15 as the radius. In addition, when the angle of the furnace cleaning shovel 1 changes, the support shaft 11 will produce up and down displacement inside the support tube 7, so generally when the support shaft 11 touches the inner diameter of the support tube 7, the furnace cleaning shovel 1 reaches the maximum adjustment angle, and the inner diameter length of the waist-shaped groove 1001 can be set to be the same as the inner diameter of the support tube 7.
[0037] A reinforcing sleeve 4 is welded between the side wall of the baffle 2 facing away from the furnace cleaning shovel and the outer wall of the support tube 7 , thereby strengthening the connection strength between the support tube 7 and the baffle 2 .
[0038] A shovel head groove 6 is provided at the lower end of the shovel head plate 5, and the shovel head groove 6 is linearly evenly distributed along the width direction of the shovel head plate 5, so that the shovel head is sharper and has an obvious effect on scraping out the hard slag at the bottom of the furnace.
[0039] The shovel head plate 5 is made of 42CrMo steel, which is a high-strength and high-temperature resistant steel. It prevents the shovel head plate 5 from deforming or melting when operating in an aluminum melt at 700°C-800°C, affecting the use effect, and also prevents the shovel head plate 5 from melting in the aluminum melt to increase the Fe content in the melt.
