Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cupola furnaces, and in particular to a gas-solid mixing structure for a cupola furnace bottom. Background Art

[0002] The cupola is an important equipment for rock wool processing. During the processing, the molten iron gathered at the bottom of the furnace needs to be discharged regularly. Since there is still a certain amount of iron in the molten iron, direct discharge will cause waste. The patent with announcement number CN220624911U discloses a gas-solid mixing device and cupola for the bottom of a cupola. It allows oxygen to enter the cupola through the oxygen outlet at a uniform flow rate, and fully reacts with the molten iron to reduce the iron content when the molten iron is discharged, thereby improving energy utilization. However, when the above patent is implemented, it only prevents the molten iron from flowing into the annular cavity through the oxygen outlet by maintaining a certain oxygen pressure. This method will increase the oxygen consumption and the flow-stopping effect is not good. For this reason, the invention proposes a gas-solid mixing structure for the bottom of a cupola. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a gas-solid mixing structure for a cupola furnace bottom, which can automatically close the oxygen outlet when the gas pressure decreases and has the advantage of simple operation.

[0006] The present application delivers oxygen into the mixing chamber through an air inlet pipe. As the oxygen pressure in the mixing chamber increases, the elastic force of the spring is overcome to push the guide tube upward until the oxygen outlet moves to the top of the top plate and is connected to the cupola. Oxygen enters the cupola through the oxygen outlet and mixes with the molten iron. As the oxygen pressure in the mixing chamber decreases, the spring pushes the air guide tube downward until the sealing cover fits the surface of the top plate, thereby achieving automatic closure of the oxygen outlet.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 This embodiment provides a gas-solid mixing structure for a cupola furnace bottom to solve the problem of poor flow-stopping effect of the oxygen outlet of the gas-solid mixing device of the existing punch furnace.

[0033] In the present embodiment, the gas-solid mixing structure for the bottom of the cupola furnace includes a base 10 that defines a mixing chamber 11, the side wall of the base 10 is provided with an air inlet pipe 13 that is connected to the mixing chamber 11, the top of the base 10 is provided with a top plate 20, an air guide pipe 30 is slidably passed through the top plate 20, a spring 34 is compressed between the lower end of the air guide pipe 30 and the top plate 20, a sealing cover 32 is provided at the upper end of the air guide pipe 30, and an oxygen outlet 33 is provided on the side wall of the air guide pipe 30 below the sealing cover 32.

[0034] In this embodiment, oxygen is delivered into the mixing chamber 11 via the air inlet pipe 13. As the oxygen pressure in the mixing chamber 11 increases, the elastic force of the spring 34 is overcome to push the guide tube 30 upward until the oxygen outlet 33 moves to the top of the top plate 20 and communicates with the cupola. Oxygen enters the cupola through the oxygen outlet 33 and mixes with the molten iron. As the oxygen pressure in the mixing chamber 11 decreases, the spring 34 pushes the air guide tube 30 downward until the sealing cover 32 is attached to the surface of the top plate 20, thereby achieving automatic closure of the oxygen outlet 33.

[0035] It should be noted that the gas-solid mixing device is integrally arranged at the bottom of the cupola, and is used to input oxygen into the interior of the cupola. The interior of the base 10 defines a cylindrical mixing chamber 11, and an annular guide plate 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mixing chamber 11. The guide plate 12 and the mixing chamber 11 are coaxially arranged, and the guide plate 12 is integrally constructed in a funnel shape, with the narrower end of the guide plate 12 facing downward, the air inlet pipe 13 is evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the base 10, and the guide plate 12 covers the inner port of the air inlet pipe 13, and the guide plate 12 is used to guide the oxygen flowing into the mixing chamber 11 to flow downward along the outer wall of the guide plate 12, and generate turbulence after mixing in the mixing chamber 11 to reduce the oxygen flow rate.

[0036] In addition, the top plate 20 is sealed and connected to the top of the mixing chamber 11, and the top plate 20 as a whole is arranged vertically with the axis of the mixing chamber 11. A plurality of mounting holes 21 are evenly arranged on the top plate 20, and the axis of the mounting hole 21 is parallel to the axis of the guide plate 12. The air guide pipe 30 is a hollow pipe, and the air guide pipe 30 as a whole can be slidably penetrated inside the mounting hole 21, and the air guide pipe 30 and the mounting hole 21 are kept in a sealed connection. An annular baffle 31 is fixed to the lower end of the air guide pipe 30, and the baffle 31 is coaxially arranged with the air guide pipe 30, and the outer diameter of the baffle 31 is larger than the mounting hole. 21 in diameter, a spring 34 is sleeved on the outside of the air duct 30, and the spring 34 is compressed between the baffle 31 and the lower surface of the top plate 20, and the spring 34 is used to generate a downward elastic thrust on the air duct 30; a conical sealing cover 32 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the air duct 30, and the sealing cover 32 and the air duct 30 are coaxially arranged, the larger end of the sealing cover 32 is located below the smaller end thereof, the outer diameter of the larger end of the sealing cover 32 is larger than the diameter of the mounting hole 21, and the lower end surface of the sealing cover 32 can fit with the upper surface of the top plate 20, thereby achieving the closure of the mounting hole 21.

[0037] In addition, a plurality of oxygen outlets 33 are evenly distributed on the circumferential surface of the air duct 30 below the sealing cover 32, and the axes of the oxygen outlets 33 are arranged radially along the air duct 30, and the plurality of oxygen outlets 33 are arranged on the same circumference. When the sealing cover 32 is fitted with the top plate 20, the oxygen outlets 33 retreat into the mounting hole 21. At this time, the oxygen outlets 33 are in a closed state, and the mixing chamber 11 and the cupola are no longer connected.

[0038] During use, oxygen flows into the mixing chamber 11 through the air inlet pipe 13. As the oxygen pressure in the mixing chamber 11 continues to increase, the elastic force of the spring 34 will be overcome and the air guide pipe 30 will be pushed upward as a whole until the oxygen outlet 33 moves to the top of the top plate 20 and is connected to the punch furnace. At this time, oxygen flows into the punch furnace through the oxygen outlet and mixes with the molten iron; as the oxygen pressure in the mixing chamber 11 decreases, the spring 34 will push the air guide pipe 30 to move downward as a whole until the oxygen outlet 33 is completely retracted into the mounting hole 21, and the sealing cover 32 is fitted with the upper surface of the top plate 20. At this time, the oxygen outlet 33 and the mounting hole 21 are both in a closed state, and the molten iron in the cupola cannot flow into the mixing chamber 11.

[0039] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and cannot be understood as limitations on the present application. Ordinary technicians in this field can change, modify, replace and modify the above embodiments within the scope of the present application.
