Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of steel-making converters, and in particular to a batching device. Background Art

[0002] BOF smelting is a major steelmaking method and is widely used in global steel production, accounting for more than 70% of the world's steel production.

[0003] During the converter smelting process, various bulk materials are added into the converter from the high-level silo. It is necessary to open a hole in the side wall above the converter and set a batching device such as a feed chute at the opening. The materials enter the converter through the batching device.

[0004] In the related art, in order to increase the service life of the material chute, a wear-resistant layer is usually set on the side wall of the material chute and cooled by water. However, the working environment of the material chute is very harsh, and its working temperature can reach a very high level and will fluctuate periodically. The added materials are mostly hard materials such as alloys, returned ore, scrap steel, etc., which will continuously wear the inner surface of the chute. Although a wear-resistant layer is set, the wear-resistant layer is mostly welded. On the one hand, the wear-resistant layer may have welding defects. On the other hand, under the influence of multiple factors such as continuous impact, wear, thermal fatigue, etc., the life of the wear-resistant layer is greatly reduced, resulting in the material chute. Frequent water leakage is very likely to cause production safety accidents, which not only affects the strength of the wear-resistant layer but may also cause cracks in the connection between the discharge chute and the converter, thereby affecting the service life of the batching device. There are also buried pipe casting discharge chutes, which are usually serpentine coils buried in the casting structure. The discharge chute of this structure has an extremely complicated manufacturing process and needs to be cooled by water during casting. Once the coil leaks during casting, a violent explosion will occur, causing a major production safety accident, and the yield rate is extremely low. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of batching device with a simple and safe manufacturing process, a high yield rate, and a better use effect. Utility Model Content

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a screw plug that matches the threads on the inner arc surface of the external sleeve and the inner arc surface of the inner tube can be used, and the screw plug can be extended from the water distribution manifold or the collecting manifold into the upper part of the external sleeve or the inner tube and screwed in to fix it, thereby quickly achieving the plugging of the external sleeve and the inner tube.

[0026] 3.

When the outer sleeve and the wear-resistant cylinder are cast or forged and then interference fitted, the wear-resistant cylinder and the outer sleeve are in close contact and are not integrated. After the wear-resistant sleeve is damaged by impact, wear, and thermal fatigue under harsh working conditions, various cracks and damages of the wear-resistant sleeve will not extend to the cooling sleeve, which greatly increases the service life and the safety of the production process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The following is combined with Figure 1 -Attached Figure 2 , further details of this application are given.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] A batching device, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The invention comprises a wear-resistant cylinder 1 fixedly connected to the converter, wherein the wear-resistant cylinder 1 is obliquely arranged on the converter. A plurality of cooling sleeves 2 are arranged in the wear-resistant cylinder 1. The cooling sleeves 2 are arranged equidistantly around the axis of the wear-resistant cylinder 1.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The cooling sleeve 2 includes an external sleeve 21, an internal insert pipe 22 and a sealing plate 23. The bottom tube of the external sleeve 21 is embedded in the wear-resistant cylinder 1. In this embodiment, the external sleeve 21 is configured as a seamless steel pipe and has a sealing head at its bottom end. The upper part of the external sleeve 21 is exposed outside the wear-resistant cylinder 1. The sealing plate 23 is fixedly connected and sealed at the upper end of the external sleeve 21. The internal insert pipe 22 passes through the sealing plate 23 and is placed in the external sleeve 21, and the internal insert pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the sealing plate 23. The diameter of the internal insert pipe 22 is smaller than the diameter of the external sleeve 21 and the internal insert pipe 22 is coaxially arranged with the external sleeve 21. There is a gap between the lower end of the internal insert pipe 22 and the bottom end of the external sleeve 21, and the upper part of the internal insert pipe 22 is exposed outside the wear-resistant cylinder 1.

[0037] A water distribution header 3 and a collection header 4 are arranged around the wear-resistant cylinder 1. The collection header 4 and the water distribution header 3 are both arranged in an annular shape, and the collection header 4 is placed below the water distribution header 3. The collection header 4 and the water distribution header 3 are both arranged coaxially with the wear-resistant cylinder 1. The water distribution header 3 is fixedly connected and connected with an inlet pipe 31 for supplying water to the water distribution header 3. The collection header 4 is fixedly connected and connected with an outlet pipe 41 for discharging water from the collection header 4.

[0038] The outer sleeve 21 includes a water outlet branch pipe 211 on the upper side wall of the outer sleeve 21, one end of which is fixedly connected and connected to the water outlet branch pipe 211 on the upper side wall thereof, and one end of the water outlet branch pipe 211 away from the outer sleeve 21 is fixedly connected and connected to the collection header 4. The outer sleeve 21 is fixedly connected and connected to the collection header 4 through the water outlet branch pipe 211. The upper end of the inner insert pipe 22 is inclined toward the water distribution header 3 and is fixedly connected and connected to the water distribution header 3.

[0039] Thus, cooling water can be added to the water distribution manifold 3 through the water inlet pipe 31, and then the water distribution manifold 3 will evenly transport water to each inner insert pipe 22, and then the cooling water entering the inner insert pipe 22 will enter the bottom of the outer sleeve 21 from top to bottom, and then the cooling water will gradually move upward along the outer sleeve 21, enter the collection manifold 4, and be discharged through the water outlet pipe 41. Thus, the cooling water will pass through the entire cooling sleeve 2, and cool the wear-resistant cylinder 1 during the flow.

[0040] A plurality of plugs 6 are threadedly connected on the arc-shaped outer wall of the collection header 4 and the arc-shaped outer wall of the water distribution header 3. The plugs 6 are connected to the inside of the collection header 4 or the water distribution header 3. The plugs 6 are equidistantly arranged around the axis of the wear-resistant cylinder 1. The plugs 6 on the collection header 4 correspond to the external sleeve 21 one by one, and the plugs 6 on the water distribution header 3 correspond to the internal insert 22 one by one. Threads are provided on the inner arc surface of the upper end of the water outlet branch pipe 211 in the external sleeve 21 and the inner arc surface of the upper end of the internal insert 22.

[0041] When a cooling sleeve 2 is damaged, the plug 6 at the corresponding position can be rotated to disengage the plug 6 at the corresponding position from the water distribution manifold 3 and the collecting manifold 4, and then the upper part of the inner tube 22 and the upper part of the water outlet branch pipe 211 in the outer sleeve 21 are sealed by a screw plug whose threads match those on the inner arc surface of the outer sleeve 21 and the inner arc surface of the inner tube 22.

[0042] The upper end of the wear-resistant cylinder 1 is fixedly connected with a wear-resistant sleeve 5. The wear-resistant sleeve 5 is arranged along the upper edge of the wear-resistant cylinder 1. In this embodiment, the wear-resistant cylinder 1 and the wear-resistant sleeve 5 are fixedly connected by bolt connection realized by a connecting flange or by welding.

[0043] The wear-resistant cylinder 1 in this embodiment is a cast or forged structure. When it is a cast structure, the external sleeve 21 is placed in the casting mold in advance during casting and cast together with the wear-resistant cylinder 1. When it is a forged structure, after the wear-resistant cylinder 1 is forged, a hole is opened according to the distribution position of the external sleeve 21. After the external sleeve 21 passes through the processed hole through an interference fit, other manufacturing processes are carried out.

[0044] The outer sleeve 21 in the wear-resistant cylinder 1 in the present application is a straight tube, so it can be manufactured by both casting and forging processes. When the casting process is adopted, the outer sleeve 21 is placed in the casting mold in advance and cast together with the wear-resistant cylinder 1. Because the outer sleeve 21 is a straight tube, it does not need to be cooled by water. It only needs to fill special sand in the straight tube. After casting, the sand in the outer sleeve 21 can be vibrated out by knocking and vibration, and then other structures such as the inner insert 22 and the sealing plate 23 are welded; when the forging process is adopted, after the wear-resistant cylinder 1 is forged, a hole is opened on the wear-resistant cylinder 1 according to the distribution of the outer sleeve 21, and the outer sleeve 21 is inserted into the wear-resistant cylinder 1 through interference fit, and then other structures such as the inner insert 22 and the sealing plate 23 are welded.

[0045] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is: cooling water can be added to the water distribution manifold 3 through the water inlet pipe 31, and then the water distribution manifold 3 will evenly transport the water to each cooling jacket 2. The cooling water cools the wear-resistant cylinder 1 during the flow in the cooling jacket 2.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] The difference from Example 1 is that the lower part of the external sleeve 21 is exposed outside the wear-resistant cylinder 1, and multiple wear-resistant blocks 7 are fixedly connected to the arc-shaped side wall of the external sleeve 21 exposed outside the wear-resistant cylinder 1, and the multiple wear-resistant blocks 7 are arranged along the length direction of the external sleeve 21.

[0048] The embodiments of this specific implementation are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. The same components are represented by the same figure marks. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
