Specific Embodiment
[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0017] As Figure 1-2 shown, a vacuum degassing production device for rare earth steel used in rolls includes a traveling mechanism 2 arranged outside the top of a housing 1 and capable of rotating around the housing 1. The traveling mechanism 2 is equipped with a purging mechanism 3 for purging the steel slag on the top of the housing 1. The purging mechanism 3 includes a gas injection pipe 31 and a gas injection nozzle 33. The outlet of the gas injection pipe 31 is communicated with the gas injection nozzle 33, ensuring the smooth transmission of high-pressure gas. The inlet of the gas injection pipe 31 is communicated with a high-pressure gas source, providing strong power support for the purging process. The gas injection nozzle 33 is located above the top of the housing 1, making the purging effect more significant, capable of quickly removing the steel slag accumulated on the top of the housing 1, and enabling the cover to achieve efficient sealing of the housing 1.
[0018] The present utility model drives the purging mechanism 3 to rotate along the top of the housing 1 through the traveling mechanism 2, capable of completely removing the residual steel slag on the top of the housing 1, so that no gap will be generated between the cover and the housing, providing a completely enclosed environment for rare earth metal smelting to form a vacuum state, facilitating subsequent refining treatment.
[0019] Furthermore, two sets of the traveling mechanism 2 and the purging mechanism 3 are respectively arranged and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the housing 1, which not only improves the stability of the device, but also makes the purging process more uniform and efficient, ensuring that all areas on the top of the housing 1 can be fully cleaned.
[0020] Furthermore, the traveling mechanism 2 includes a gear 21, a gear ring 23, an annular track 25 and a slider 24. The annular track 25 is installed outside the top of the housing 1. The top of the annular track 25 is provided with a slider 24 in cooperation. The top of the slider 24 is fixedly connected to a bracket 22. The outer side of the annular track 25 is installed with a gear ring 23. The gear ring 23 meshes with the gear 21. The gear 21 is driven to rotate by a motor 26, and the motor 26 is fixed on the bracket 22. When the motor 26 is started, the motor 26 drives the gear 21 to rotate around the gear ring 23, and at the same time drives the bracket 22 and the slider 24 to rotate along the annular track 25. The bracket 22 drives the purging mechanism 3 to rotate, realizing the purging of the steel slag on the top of the housing 1.
[0021] A nozzle lifting mechanism 7 is further provided on the bracket 22. The nozzle lifting mechanism 7 includes a lifting rod 71. The top of the lifting rod 71 is fixed to one end of a horizontal rod 72. The other end of the horizontal rod 72 is fixed to a pipeline protective sleeve 32. The air injection pipe 31 is located within the pipeline protective sleeve 32. The nozzle can be flexibly adjusted in height according to actual needs, so as to adapt to the purging requirements under different production conditions.
[0022] In order to avoid interference caused by the purging mechanism 3 during the falling process of the cover body, in the present utility model, the lifting rod 71 includes a rod body. The bracket 22 is provided with a through hole that mates with the rod body. The lower end of the rod body passes through the through hole. External threads are provided on the rod body. An upper nut 73 is fixed on the rod body above the bracket 22, and a lower nut 74 is fixed on the rod body below the bracket 22. When it is necessary to cover the cover body on the housing 1, the upper nut 73 and the lower nut 74 are loosened, and then the entire purging mechanism 3 is rotated around the lifting rod 71 to provide a falling space for the falling of the cover body.
[0023] In order to better block the splashing of molten steel slag during the production process and prevent the molten steel slag from falling into the track, a slag baffle 8 is fixed on the bracket 22 and above the annular track 25, effectively preventing the molten steel slag from interfering with the traveling mechanism 2 and ensuring the smooth progress of the production process.
[0024] The annular track 25 is fixed on an annular support plate 9. The annular support plate 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing 1, enhancing the stability and load-bearing capacity of the annular track 25, making the traveling mechanism 2 more reliable and stable during operation.
[0025] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: First, start the motor. The traveling mechanism 2 drives the purging mechanism 3 to purge the residual molten steel slag on the top of the housing; after the purging is completed, rotate the upper nut 73 and the lower nut 74 to rotate the purging mechanism to provide space for the subsequent falling of the cover body; then use a 50 / 10t crane to hoist the ladle 4 to the VD furnace station, connect argon and start blowing argon, measure temperature and take samples, cover the cover body, open the vacuum valve to start vacuum pumping, and make the vacuum degree reach below 67 Pa in the shortest possible time to perform deoxidation, dehydrogenation, denitrification, deep desulfurization, and removal of inclusions on the molten steel. After a period of time, make the gas content of the molten steel reach the requirements, then break the vacuum, remove the cover body, measure temperature and take samples, determine hydrogen, and after soft blowing reaches the process time, use the crane to hoist it to the continuous casting for pouring.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification only illustrate the principles of the present utility model.
