[0002] Adding scrap steel to a blast furnace for ironmaking is an effective way to recycle scrap steel. Light scrap steel has a high oxidation degree and a low price, but due to its small specific gravity and large volume, there is a fixed opening at the bottom of the existing scrap steel hopper for feeding, and the falling material amount cannot be controlled, which is not conducive to controlling the flow rate of scrap steel into the blast furnace and seriously affects the production rhythm of blast furnace ironmaking. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a blast furnace scrap steel hopper with adjustable flow rate, and solve the problem that the existing blast furnace scrap steel hopper cannot control the falling material amount.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0005] A blast furnace scrap steel hopper with adjustable flow rate, comprising a hopper body and round steel. The hopper body is a cuboid with openings at both the top and the bottom. A base is provided at the bottom of the hopper body for support, and the bottom is open. Inside the hopper body, 4 trapezoidal inclined planes are welded along the four side surfaces from high to low towards the bottom of the hopper body. Among them, 2 trapezoidal inclined planes take the wide side of the hopper body as the lower base, and the other 2 trapezoidal inclined planes take the long side of the hopper body as the lower base. The hypotenuses of any 2 adjacent trapezoidal inclined planes are welded to form a rectangle at the bottom of the hopper body as the discharge port. A baffle is provided at the discharge port. Circular steel rings are welded on both sides at one end of the bottom of the trapezoidal inclined plane below the discharge port. A circular hole is opened on one side of the base, and the 2 circular steel rings and the circular hole are on the same horizontal line. The round steel penetrates into the circular hole and the circular steel rings, and the top end of the round steel is welded to the baffle. The round steel outside the base is horizontally welded to a hollow pipe. The baffle and the hollow pipe are on different sides at both ends of the round steel. By rotating the hollow pipe upwards, the round steel is controlled to rotate, driving the baffle to rotate downwards to adjust the falling material flow rate of the discharge port.

[0006] Preferably, lifting lugs are symmetrically arranged on the outer sides of the front and rear walls of the hopper body.

[0007] Preferably, the trapezoidal inclined planes on the left and right sides of the hopper body are right trapezoids.

[0008] Preferably, an inverted "V" - shaped buffer plate is welded above the discharge port.

[0009] Preferably, a buckle is provided on the outer wall of the hopper body at the other end of the hollow pipe, and when the hollow pipe is in a horizontal position, the buckle is clamped with the hollow pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the long side of the discharge port is 800 - 1000 mm, and the wide side is 400 - 600 mm.

[0011] Preferably, the bucket body is made of steel plate with a thickness of 30-50 mm.

[0012] Preferably, the length of the bucket body is 3500 mm - 4000 mm, the width is 2000 mm - 2500 mm, and the height is 2800 mm - 3000 mm.

[0013] The beneficial effects achieved by the present utility model:

[0014] This hopper has a low cost and is easy to operate. By adjusting the hollow tube outside the hopper according to the blanking requirement, the opening degree of the baffle is controlled, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the feeding flow of blast furnace scrap steel, prevent the situation that the addition amount of scrap steel is too high or too low, and reduce the impact on production.
