Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ferroalloy production equipment control devices, in particular to a control device for an electrode pressing and releasing system of an ore-fired furnace. Background Art
[0002] Submerged arc furnace is an industrial electric furnace, which is mainly used for the production of important industrial raw materials and chemical raw materials such as calcium carbide in the metallurgical industry, such as ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochrome, ferrotungsten, manganese ore alloy and other ferroalloys; the industrial silicon furnace uses semi-graphite carbon electrodes. Since the carbon electrodes are continuously consumed during the smelting process, it is necessary to perform electrode pressing and releasing operations so that the consumed part of the carbon electrodes can be replenished in time, thereby ensuring that the length of the working end of the electrode buried in the charge meets the furnace operation process requirements.
[0003] The technology currently used in the electrode pressure release system of the electric arc furnace is basically to add a single-sided ranging displacement sensor at the position of the electrode pressure release cylinder, mainly to meet the data measurement of the electrode displacement action, but the single-sided data measurement cannot ensure the synchronization and consistency of the pressure release cylinder actions on both sides. Once the pressure release cylinders on both sides are not in sync, problems such as electrode pressure release deviation are likely to occur; on the other hand, if the monitored displacement data is not protected by corresponding interlocking settings, it is easy to cause the displacement to exceed the limit action and cause damage to the furnace top equipment, affecting the stable operation of the electric arc furnace equipment. Utility Model Content

[0006] The bus interface of the PLC controller is connected with a comparison module.
[0007] Displacement sensors are installed on the oil cylinders on both sides. The displacement distance of the displacement on both sides of the oil cylinder can be measured in real time during the electrode pressing and pulling process through the measurement and encoding functions inside the displacement sensors, and then the signals collected by the two displacement sensors are converted and encoded. At the same time, the signals collected during the pressing and pulling process of the electrode pressing and pulling system can be transmitted in the form of analog quantity to the four-bit AI Turck analog quantity acquisition module on site, and then the analog quantity signal is transmitted to the background main PLC controller through the PROFIBUS bus protocol. After data processing by the main station CPU and related conversion modules, the specific address is given in the form of digital quantity, and then connected to the HMI interface of the host computer WINCC operating system in the central control room through the local area network, realizing the human-machine exchange mode of electrode pressing and pulling operation and data monitoring.

According to the release stroke of the release cylinder of 0-1200mm, a comparison instruction program is set in the program for the upward displacement not exceeding 200mm and the lowering displacement not exceeding 800mm. When the actual displacement is between 200mm-800mm, the three-phase electrode displacement can be arbitrarily operated in three places.
[0009] The bus interface of the PLC controller is connected with an alarm.
[0010] The alarm is set. When the upward or downward displacement of the oil cylinder in the electrode pressing system exceeds the limit, that is, the displacement is less than 200mm or greater than 800mm, the three-phase electrode will automatically trigger the upper and lower limit alarm instructions respectively, and promptly remind the operators on duty to prevent the occurrence of problems caused by excessive displacement operations.
[0011] The bus interface of the PLC controller is connected to a side operation authority module.
[0012] The bus interface of the PLC controller is connected with a remote button authority operation module.
[0013] The bus interface of the PLC controller is connected to a host computer HMI operation authority module.
[0014] The machine-side operation permission module, remote button permission operation module, and upper computer HMI operation permission module are set up to select relevant instructions through the selection switch to ensure that operations in three locations can only be allowed at one location at the same time, prevent equipment failures caused by misoperation, and ensure safe and reliable operations, fully ensuring the safety of operators.
[0015] The oil cylinder telescopic rod is fixedly mounted on the surface of the lower brake by means of bolts.
[0016] The telescopic rod of the oil cylinder is fixed to the surface of the lower brake by bolts, which is convenient for installation and disassembly, saving time and effort.

The signals collected by the two displacement sensors are then converted and encoded. At the same time, the signals collected during the electrode pressing and unloading process can be transmitted in the form of analog quantities to the four-bit AI Turck analog quantity acquisition module on site, and then the analog signals are transmitted to the background master PLC controller through the PROFIBUS bus protocol. After data processing by the master station CPU and related conversion modules The specific address is given in the form of digital quantity, and then connected to the HMI interface of the upper computer WINCC operating system in the central control room through the local area network to realize the human-machine exchange mode of electrode pressing and releasing operation and data monitoring; the comparison module is set up, and the lifting displacement does not exceed 200mm and the lowering displacement does not exceed 800mm is set in the program according to the pressing and releasing stroke of the pressing and releasing cylinder 0-1200mm. When the actual displacement is between 200mm-800mm, the three-phase electrode displacement can be arbitrarily operated in three places, which is convenient to operate and safe and reliable to run.
[0019] 2) The machine-side operation permission module, remote button permission operation module, and upper computer HMI operation permission module are set up to select relevant instructions through the selection switch to ensure that the three-location operation can only be allowed at one place at the same time, prevent equipment failure caused by misoperation, and ensure safe and reliable operation, fully ensuring the safety of operators.
[0020] 3) When the oil cylinder in the electrode pressure release system exceeds the limit of lifting or lowering, that is, the displacement is less than 200mm or greater than 800mm, the three-phase electrode will automatically trigger the upper and lower limit alarm instructions respectively, and promptly remind the operators to prevent the occurrence of problems caused by excessive displacement operation.
[0021] 4) The device has a reasonable structural design, low processing and manufacturing cost, safe and reliable operation, and saves time and effort.
