Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of blast furnace hearths and bottoms, and particularly relates to a blast furnace bottom structure for reducing the erosion of the side wall of a blast furnace hearth. Background Art
[0002] In the modern iron and steel production process, the output of blast furnace ironmaking accounts for more than 90% of the total iron output. With the development trend of blast furnace enlargement, the system integration degree and complexity of blast furnaces are constantly increasing, and the number is constantly decreasing, resulting in large investment, long construction period for blast furnace overhauls and great impact on the entire iron and steel production process. Therefore, the problem of blast furnace long life has become the focus of attention of ironmaking workers, and realizing blast furnace long life is also the only way for iron and steel enterprises to achieve sustainable development.
[0003] The hearth and bottom of a blast furnace are key parts of a blast furnace, and their life is one of the limiting links for blast furnace long life. The problem of hearth and bottom long life of a blast furnace is a systematic project, mainly involving many factors such as the structure design of the hearth and bottom, the quality of refractories and equipment, the construction quality, production operation and maintenance management, etc. Among them, a reasonable hearth and bottom structure is the prerequisite and key to realizing the long life of the hearth and bottom.
[0004] The blast furnace hearth is the area where slag and iron are stored in a blast furnace, and the stored slag and iron are regularly discharged through the slag and iron tapholes. There is liquid slag and iron inside the hearth, and at the same time, there is a dead stock column suspended or sitting at the bottom in the hearth. The smelted slag and iron need to penetrate through the dead stock column and fall into the hearth. The slag and iron stored inside the hearth flow continuously inside the hearth, scouring and eroding the refractories of the hearth. If the communication of slag and iron inside the hearth is not good, the melted slag and iron cannot flow to the position of the taphole in time, resulting in uneven operation of the hearth. In the light case, it will cause short-term inability to discharge slag and iron, making the blast furnace stuffy, affecting the balance of the blast furnace. In the heavy case, if the communication is not good for a long time, it is easy to cause serious local erosion of the hearth and there is a risk of burning through. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a blast furnace bottom structure for reducing the erosion of the side wall of a blast furnace hearth, which is conducive to the melted slag and iron flowing to the position of the taphole in time, thereby reducing the erosion of the side wall of the hearth.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A blast furnace bottom structure for reducing the erosion of the side wall of a blast furnace hearth, the bottom is a slope structure with a high center and a low edge; a convex platform is provided at the center of the bottom, and a plurality of diversion channels radiating from the convex platform to the edge are provided on the surface of the bottom, and the diversion channels extend to the iron notch area; the number of the diversion channels is the same as the number of iron notches, and the diversion channels correspond to the iron notches one by one.
[0008] Further, the convex platform is a frustum of a cone.
[0009] Furthermore, the furnace bottom is built with ceramic materials.
[0010] Furthermore, the ceramic material is mullite brick.
[0011] Furthermore, the mullite brick is fan-shaped, and the furnace bottom is built with multiple circles of mullite bricks.
[0012] Furthermore, among the multiple circles of mullite bricks, the size and radian of the mullite bricks in each circle are the same.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has at least the following technical effects or advantages:
