Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of galvanizing processing, in particular to a temperature control device for continuous hot-dip galvanizing of steel strips. Background Technique

[0002] Hot-dip galvanizing, also known as hot-dip zinc plating and hot-dip galvanizing, is mainly used for the anti-corrosion treatment of steel structure parts. After rust removal, the steel parts are immersed in molten zinc at about 500 °C, so that a zinc layer adheres to the surface of the steel components, thereby achieving the purpose of anti-corrosion. The temperature control of the zinc bath has a direct impact on the quality of galvanizing. When the temperature of the hot-dip galvanizing zinc bath rises, it will promote the thickening of the Fe-Zn alloy layer and the formation of Fe2Al5 scum. When the temperature of the hot-dip galvanizing zinc bath is below 480 °C, the iron loss changes according to the parabolic law, and with the increase of temperature, the iron loss increases little. When the temperature of the hot-dip galvanizing zinc bath exceeds 480 °C, the iron loss increases sharply with the increase of the zinc bath temperature according to the linear law, and the Fe-Zn alloy layer also thickens sharply, seriously affecting the adhesion of the coating. Therefore, the temperature of the hot-dip galvanizing zinc bath should be stably controlled at a certain temperature value between 450-470 °C according to the thickness of the strip.

[0003] Due to the high viscosity characteristics of the zinc bath, the fluidity is poor, resulting in low heat conduction efficiency in the zinc pot. The traditional two-end heating method cannot effectively achieve uniform heating of the zinc bath throughout the zinc pot. Especially in the middle area of the zinc pot, due to being far from the heat source, the temperature of the zinc bath is often low. This problem of uneven temperature distribution not only affects the stability of the galvanizing process, but also may lead to uneven surface quality of the galvanized sheet, such as color differences and uneven thickness. When the temperature difference of the zinc bath in the zinc pot is large, iron ions in the zinc bath with a higher temperature are prone to precipitate from the zinc bath during the cooling process. These precipitated iron ions react with the aluminum element in the zinc bath to form zinc slag. The formation of zinc slag not only causes waste of zinc resources, but also has a negative impact on the production of galvanized sheets. On the one hand, zinc slag will adhere to the galvanized sheet, resulting in a decrease in the surface quality of the galvanized sheet, and in severe cases, even lead to the downgrading of the galvanized sheet; on the other hand, the cleaning and treatment of zinc slag also require additional costs and human resources, increasing the production cost.

[0004] In view of this, this application is specifically proposed. Content of the Utility Model

[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a temperature control device for continuous hot-dip galvanizing of steel strips, including: a furnace body 1 and a zinc pot 2. The zinc pot 2 is arranged in the furnace body 1. A heating component 3 for heating the zinc pot 2 is installed on the inner side wall of the furnace body 1. The heating component 3 includes,

[0033] A gas pipeline 31 is arranged between the furnace body 1 and the zinc pot 2, surrounding the zinc pot 2, and an intake section 32 for connecting to external natural gas is connected in the middle thereof;

[0034] Burners 33 are arranged on the gas pipeline 31 and are arranged at intervals around the outer side wall of the zinc pot 2;

[0035] A solenoid valve 34 is in fluid communication with the burner 33;

[0036] A transmission component 4 for pushing the zinc pot 2 to reciprocate along its length direction is further arranged on the side wall of the zinc pot 2. When the zinc pot 2 reciprocates inside the furnace body 1, the corresponding positions of the side wall of the zinc pot 2 and the burner 33 change.

[0037] It should be noted that: a temperature sensor 6 for detecting the temperature of the zinc liquid inside the pot wall 21 is further installed on the side wall of the pot wall 21, and a controller for controlling the opening degree of the solenoid valve 34 according to the zinc liquid temperature detected by the temperature sensor 6 is further installed on the outer wall of the furnace body 1.

[0038] Specifically, the intake section 32 supplies natural gas or coal gas to the gas pipeline 31, and the gas pipeline 31 supplies it to the burner 33. The spacing distances of the burners 33 should be approximately the same to ensure uniform heating of the zinc pot 2. The solenoid valve 34 is in fluid communication with the burner 33. The temperature sensor 6 contacts the zinc pot 2 to detect the temperature of the zinc pot 2. The controller correspondingly controls the opening degree of the solenoid valve 34 according to the zinc liquid temperature detected by the temperature sensor 6 to control the size of the flame of the burner 33 so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the temperature of the zinc pot 2. When the temperature of the zinc pot 2 reaches the preset high temperature value, the solenoid valve 34 reduces the opening degree to reduce the gas supply to the burner 33. When the temperature of the zinc pot 2 reaches the preset low temperature value, the solenoid valve 34 increases the opening degree to increase the gas supply to the burner 33.

[0039] Refer to Figure 1 , the transmission assembly 4 includes,

[0040] The fixed rod 41 is connected to the side wall of the upper part of the zinc pot 2, and a movable rod 42 is rotatably connected to the end thereof away from the zinc pot 2. A driven pin 43 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the movable rod 42;

[0041] The rotating rod 44 can rotate around its own axis, and a turntable 45 is fixedly installed on its outer wall. A pin slot for inserting the driven pin 43 is provided on the top surface of the turntable 45.

[0042] Specifically, the rotating rod 44 is connected to an external driving device to make the rotating rod 44 rotate. The rotating rod 44 drives the turntable 45 to rotate. The distance between the inner wall of the pin slot and the axis of the rotating rod 44 increases or decreases in sequence in the rotation direction. Furthermore, when the turntable 45 rotates, it can push the movable rod 42 and the fixed rod 41 to drive the zinc pot 2 to perform a linear reciprocating motion. During the movement of the zinc pot 2 on the furnace body 1, its side wall can alternately contact the spaced burners 33, thereby ensuring the uniformity of heating of the zinc pot 2 by the burners 33.

[0043] Refer to Figure 2 , the zinc pot 2 includes a pot wall 21 and an extension edge 22. The pot wall 21 is arranged inside the furnace body 1, and the extension edge 22 extends outward along the top wall of the pot wall 21 and overlaps on the top wall of the furnace body 1.

[0044] Refer to Figure 3 , there is a gap between the pot wall 21 and the furnace body 1, and the heating assembly 3 is arranged in the gap between the pot wall 21 and the furnace body 1.

[0045] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the furnace body 1 is made of refractory bricks, the furnace body 1 has a rectangular structure, and the height of the side wall of the furnace body 1 is greater than the height of the pot wall 21.

[0046] Specifically, the furnace body 1 made of refractory bricks has the advantages of high temperature resistance and good heat preservation effect.

[0047] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , it further includes a flow disturbance component 5 arranged on the bottom surface of the furnace body 1. The flow disturbance component 5 includes

[0048] a rack 52, installed on the bottom surface of the furnace body 1, which is parallel to the length direction of the furnace body 1;

[0049] a rotating shaft 53, rotatably installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the pot wall 21. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 53 extends below the pot wall 21 and is provided with a gear 54 meshing with the rack 52. The top end of the rotating shaft 53 extends into the pot wall 21 and is provided with a flow disturbance blade 55;

[0050] Specifically, the zinc pot 2 can be driven by the transmission component 4 to horizontally reciprocate on the furnace body 1. During the movement of the zinc pot 2, the rotating shaft 53 and the gear 54 will move synchronously. When the gear 54 moves, it will mesh with the rack 52, and then the gear 54 can drive the rotating shaft 53 and the flow disturbance blade 55 to rotate, so that the zinc liquid in the zinc pot 2 keeps flowing slowly, maintaining the uniformity of the temperature and composition of the zinc liquid in the zinc pot 2, and reducing the generation of zinc slag.

[0051] Refer to Figure 2 , a support rod 51 is connected to the non-tooth surface of the rack 52. There are two support rods 51 arranged symmetrically. One end of the support rod 51 away from the rack 52 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the furnace body 1.
