Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ferroalloy equipment, in particular to a self-baking electrode shell for a submerged arc furnace. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of ferroalloy enterprises, the competition in the ferroalloy industry is becoming increasingly fierce. In order to be invincible in the industry competition, the ferroalloy industry continuously improves the performance of equipment to improve the reliability and competitiveness of equipment. The electrode shell of the self-baking electrode of the ferroalloy ore-fired furnace is traditionally made of internal ribs that are only close together due to process and other reasons, but not connected. As a result, the current cannot be smoothly transmitted downward through the ribs during the baking of the self-baking electrode. The ribs are easily hit or knocked off by the electrode paste filled in the electrode shell, which weakens the lateral strength of the self-baking electrode and easily causes cracks and fractures in the self-baking electrode. The maintenance is difficult and the maintenance cost is high, resulting in frequent electrode failures during the operation of the self-baking electrode, causing thermal shutdown failures, and bringing great economic losses to the normal operation of the enterprise.

[0003] The publication number is: CN210518911U, and the name is: A self-baking electrode shell with a spark prevention function, including an electrode shell arc plate, a rib sheet, and a round steel. The utility model is provided with a rib sheet and an L-shaped plate, and the connecting line L at the other end of the rib sheet is aligned with the gap between two adjacent electrode shell arc plates on the cylinder, so that the other end of the rib sheet is aligned with the outer wall of the cylinder, ensuring that the rib sheets above the other end of the rib sheet are aligned with the outer wall of the cylinder, and the L-shaped plate is evenly arranged around the outer wall of the cylinder, and the L-shaped plate is at a distance from the connecting line L at the other end of the rib sheet. The distance D1 between the L-shaped plate on the rib sheet and the outer wall of the cylinder is smaller than the width D2 of the other end of the rib sheet, and D1 is 2 / 5-4 / 5 of D2, which greatly extends the distance between the L-shaped plate on the rib sheet and the outer wall of the cylinder. While improving the overall strength of the self-baking electrode shell, it can also make the L-shaped plate on the rib sheet easier to fully contact with the conductive clips evenly distributed around the outer wall of the cylinder, ensuring that the rib sheet and the conductive clip are accurately matched, eliminating the sparking phenomenon of the self-baking electrode shell during the baking process, avoiding the adverse effects of sparking on the electrode, and making the electrode sintered well.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned self-baking electrode shell has a fireproof function, its strength is insufficient. Utility Model Content

[0008] The electrode cylinder frame is arranged as an upper electrode cylinder and a lower electrode cylinder, which is convenient for installation and disassembly and maintenance. At the same time, the bottom end of the rib sheet arranged inside the upper electrode cylinder is fixedly connected with the top end of the rib sheet arranged inside the lower electrode cylinder to form a straight-through rib sheet, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall surface of the circumference, so that the current can be smoothly conducted downward through the rib sheet when the self-baking electrode is baked. The rib sheet is not easily knocked down by the electrode paste filled in the upper electrode cylinder and the lower electrode cylinder, which can effectively prevent the hidden dangers of electrode paste hanging, so that the self-baking electrode can be baked well, effectively reducing the failure of the self-baking electrode in the electric arc furnace, and can improve the strength of the electrode cylinder frame, with strong anti-deformation ability and good sealing performance.

[0009] The ribs include a first rib, a second rib and a support rod. The first rib and the second rib are located on a vertical plane, and are distributed in an interlaced manner. The ends of the first rib and the second rib extend toward the inner walls of the upper electrode cylinder and the lower electrode cylinder respectively, and are fixed to the inner walls of the upper electrode cylinder and the lower electrode cylinder. A plurality of support rods are fixedly installed between the first ribs arranged in the same straight line on both sides.

[0010] The angle between the first rib and the second rib is 20-30°.

[0011] The ends of the first rib and the second rib are respectively extended to the inner walls of the upper electrode cylinder and the lower electrode cylinder and fixed to the inner walls of the upper electrode cylinder and the lower electrode cylinder, which can not only improve the strength of the electrode cylinder frame but also better conduct current.
