Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metal smelting equipment, and specifically relates to a removing device for removing gases in molten metal. Background Technique
[0002] An important step in metal smelting is to remove the gases in the molten metal. Gases dissolved in the molten metal, such as hydrogen and nitrogen, will form bubbles or pores during the solidification process of the metal, resulting in a decrease in the density of the metal material, thereby reducing its mechanical properties, such as strength and toughness. The presence of gases in the metal also easily causes various defects, such as white spots, hair cracks, segregation, etc., and these defects will further affect the service performance and lifespan of the metal.
[0003] In the prior art, the molten metal is usually placed in a vacuum environment through a vacuum pump, so that the gases dissolved in it quickly escape under the action of the pressure difference, or an inert gas (such as argon) is introduced into the molten metal, and the gases dissolved in the molten metal are discharged through the stirring and carrying action of the bubbles. However, when introducing the inert gas, the bubbles are too large, thereby reducing the contact area with the molten metal and lowering the gas removal efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a removing device for removing gases in molten metal to solve the problem that in the prior art, when using an inert gas to remove gases in molten metal, the contact area between the inert gas and the molten metal is small, resulting in a reduction in gas removal efficiency.
