Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of nozzles, and particularly relates to a nozzle for a segment of a slab continuous casting machine that prevents blockage. Background Art
[0002] A slab continuous casting machine is one of the very important equipment in iron and steel production, and is used to continuously cast high-temperature molten steel into slabs with a certain cross-sectional shape and size; during the continuous casting process, in order to ensure the quality of the cast slab, it is necessary to cool the surface of the cast slab, which is usually achieved by nozzles installed on the segments. These nozzles spray cooling water or aerosol onto the surface of the cast slab, and by contacting the cooling water or aerosol with the surface of the cast embryo, the cooling and temperature reduction of the cast embryo are realized.
[0003] However, in actual use, the nozzles may become blocked due to poor water quality, foreign objects entering, etc., resulting in the cooling water or aerosol being unable to pass through the nozzles smoothly and spray onto the surface of the cast slab, affecting the cooling effect and further affecting the quality of the cast slab; in order to reduce the possibility of the nozzles being blocked during use, a filter screen is usually provided at the water inlet end of the nozzles to filter the water quality, thereby reducing the possibility of the nozzles being blocked.
[0004] For example, a nozzle with anti-blocking function disclosed in the patent with publication number CN218394176U includes a liquid guide cylinder. The right end of the front surface of the liquid guide cylinder is fixedly connected with a liquid inlet pipe. A maintenance opening is opened at the left end of the top of the liquid guide cylinder. The middle end of the inner cavity of the liquid guide cylinder is fixedly connected with an annular baffle. The middle end on the left side of the liquid guide cylinder is threadedly connected with a screw rod. The right side of the screw rod is movably connected with a sealing pressing plate through a bearing, and the right side of the sealing pressing plate is movably connected to the left side of the annular baffle. Through the mutual cooperation of the filter screen, the liquid inlet pipe, the liquid guide cylinder, the nozzle body, the screw rod, the sealing pressing plate, the annular baffle, the U-shaped fixing rod, the spring, the fixing frame, the annular pressing plate and the rubber sealing seat, the nozzle body has the function of filtering during use, reducing the probability of the nozzle body being blocked, and at the same time facilitating the disassembly and cleaning of the filter screen by personnel, bringing great convenience to the use of personnel.
[0005] However, the nozzles in the above technology still have the following problems:
[0006] Although by setting a detachable filter screen, while filtering the water quality flowing to the nozzles, it is convenient to regularly disassemble the filter screen and clean the filtered impurities, the scale and the like doped in the water quality cannot be filtered by the filter screen. Even during long-term use, the scale will continuously adhere to the surface of the filter screen and the inner wall of the nozzles, resulting in a gradual decrease in the spraying water volume of the nozzles, affecting the spraying volume of the cooling water and the cooling effect.

[0027] 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.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 7 , a nozzle for a segment of a slab continuous casting machine that prevents blockage, including a sprinkler head 1 and a liquid guide cylinder 2. A connected liquid inlet pipe 3 is installed on the side of the liquid guide cylinder 2. The sprinkler head 1 and the liquid guide cylinder 2 are fixedly connected and communicate. One end of the liquid guide cylinder 2 away from the sprinkler head 1 is connected with a detachable cap 4. A filtering component is connected to the inner wall of the liquid guide cylinder 2 near the sprinkler head 1. A scraping component is connected to the side of the filtering component close to the sprinkler head 1. The scraping component is connected to the inner wall of the sprinkler head 1. A hydrodynamic component is connected to the side of the filtering component away from the sprinkler head 1. The hydrodynamic component is located on the side of the liquid inlet pipe 3 close to the sprinkler head 1.
[0029] As Figure 1 - Figure 7 shown, a nozzle for a segment of a slab continuous casting machine that prevents blockage in the present invention is similar in structure to the existing nozzle for a segment of a slab continuous casting machine that prevents blockage. For example, a nozzle that prevents blockage disclosed in the patent with the publication number CN218394176U. The main improvement point of the present invention is that it can scrape the scale impurities attached to the inner side of the sprinkler head 1 to ensure the cooling water spraying amount of the nozzle. As Figures 1 to 7 shown, when the nozzle for a segment of a slab continuous casting machine that prevents blockage in the present invention is in use, when the cooling water enters the liquid guide cylinder 2 through the liquid inlet pipe 3, the cooling water flows from the liquid guide cylinder 2 to the sprinkler head 1. At this time, the water flow drives the hydrodynamic component and drives the scraping component below the filtering component to scrape the inner side of the sprinkler head 1, so as to scrape and clean the scale attached to the inner side of the sprinkler head 1. At the same time, larger impurity particles in the cooling water are intercepted by the filtering component, thus preventing large particles from blocking the sprinkler head 1, maintaining the cooling water spraying amount of the sprinkler head 1, and maintaining the cooling effect of the slab. When the internal filtering component, hydrodynamic component, and scraping component are damaged, they can be taken out from the inside of the liquid guide cylinder 2 through the detachable cap 4, which is convenient for maintaining the inside of the nozzle.
[0030] As Figure 1 - Figure 7As shown in the figure, the filtering component includes a mesh frame 5, an inner frame 6, a filter screen 7, and several support rods 8. The filter screen 7 is located inside the mesh frame 5 and is fixedly connected to the mesh frame 5. The outer wall of the mesh frame 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the liquid guide cylinder 2. The inner frame 6 is located in the middle of the filter screen 7 and is fixedly connected to the filter screen 7. An annular rotating groove 601 is provided inside the inner frame 6. A rotating plate 9 is rotatably connected inside the annular rotating groove 601. The scraping component and the hydrodynamic component are respectively connected to both sides of the rotating plate 9. The several support rods 8 are evenly distributed on the side of the filter screen 7 close to the nozzle 1, and both ends of the several support rods 8 are fixedly connected to the mesh frame 5 and the inner frame 6 respectively. The mesh frame 5 and the inner frame 6 fix the filter screen 7 inside the liquid guide cylinder 2 for filtering operations. At the same time, multiple support rods 8 support the bottom of the filter screen 7, thereby preventing the filter screen 7 from being damaged by the impact of water flow when the water flows, improving the structural stability of the filter screen 7. At the same time, the hydrodynamic component drives the scraping component at the bottom to perform a rotating scraping operation through the rotating plate 9 in the middle of the inner frame 6.
[0031] As Figure 2 - Figure 7 shown in the figure, the hydrodynamic component includes a first connecting block 10 and several blades 11. The first connecting block 10 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating plate 9 away from the nozzle 1. The several blades 11 are evenly distributed on the outside of the first connecting block 10 and are fixedly connected to the first connecting block 10. When the cooling water flows from the liquid guide cylinder 2 to the nozzle 1, it drives the blades 11 to rotate and synchronously drives the rotating plate 9 to rotate through the first connecting block 10, thereby generating rotational power.
[0032] As Figure 2 - Figure 6 shown in the figure, both sides of the first connecting block 10 close to one end of the inner frame 6 are fixedly connected with brushes 12. The brush handles of the two brushes 12 are slidably connected to the inner frame 6. The bristles of the two brushes 12 extend to the position of the filter screen 7. When the first connecting block 10 rotates, it drives the two brushes 12 to rotate and move above the filter screen 7, thereby using the bristles of the brushes 12 to brush the upper surface of the filter screen 7, thereby preventing scale from adhering to the surface of the filter screen 7 and improving the filtering effect of the filter screen 7.
[0033] As Figure 2 - Figure 5As shown, the scraping assembly includes a second connecting block 13 and two symmetrically arranged connecting rods 14. The second connecting block 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating plate 9 close to the nozzle 1. The two connecting rods 14 are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the second connecting block 13. One end of each of the two connecting rods 14 away from the second connecting block 13 is fixedly connected with a scraping strip 15, and both scraping strips 15 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the nozzle 1. When the hydrodynamic assembly drives the rotating plate 9 to rotate, it synchronously drives the second connecting block 13 to rotate, and then drives the two connecting rods 14 to rotate simultaneously. When the two connecting rods 14 rotate, they drive the scraping strips 15 at the ends to rotate and slide on the inner wall of the nozzle 1, so as to scrape off impurities such as scale attached to the inner wall of the nozzle 1, and the impurities are ejected from the nozzle 1 with the water flow, avoiding blockage of the nozzle 1 caused by continuous attachment of scale.
[0034] As Figure 2 - Figure 4 As shown, a limiting rod 16 is movably connected to the side of the first connecting block 10 close to the detachable cap 4. The other end of the limiting rod 16 penetrates through the detachable cap 4 and is threadedly connected to the detachable cap 4. By screwing the limiting rod 16 on the detachable cap 4, the first connecting block 10 can be pushed towards the nozzle 1, so as to prevent the filter screen 7 from shaking up and down in the liquid guide cylinder 2 when impacted by water flow. During installation, the extrusion of the limiting rod 16 on the first connecting block 10 does not need to be moderate, as long as the shaking of the mesh frame 5 up and down is avoided, and at the same time, it is ensured that the first connecting block 10 can keep rotating. A sealing ring is installed at the connection between the limiting rod 16 and the detachable cap 4 to prevent cooling water from overflowing from the liquid guide cylinder 2.
[0035] As Figure 1 - Figure 7 As shown, a U-shaped removal groove 101 is formed on the side of the first connecting block 10 close to the limiting rod 16. A U-shaped rotating groove 102 is formed on the side of the U-shaped removal groove 101 away from the limiting rod 16. One end of the limiting rod 16 away from the detachable cap 4 penetrates through the middle position of the U-shaped removal groove 101 and is fixedly connected with a rotating block 17, and the rotating block 17 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped rotating groove 102. Through the connection between the U-shaped removal groove 101, the U-shaped rotating groove 102, the limiting rod 16 and the rotating block 17, the first connecting block 10 and part of the filter screen 7 can be pulled out of the liquid guide cylinder 2 through the limiting rod 16 and disassembled from the limiting rod 16 and the rotating block 17, which is convenient for taking out the filter screen 7 component for replacement or cleaning of large particle impurities filtered by the filter screen 7.
[0036] As Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a hand-tightening cap 18 is fixedly connected to the end of the limiting rod 16 penetrating through the detachable cap 4. Through the hand-tightening cap 18, it is more convenient to rotate the limiting rod 16, so as to adjust the position of the limiting rod 16 on the detachable cap 4.
[0037] As Figure 1 - Figure 7As shown, the detachable cap 4 is threadedly connected to one end of the liquid guide cylinder 2 away from the nozzle 1. Through the threaded connection method, it is convenient to disassemble and install between the detachable cap 4 and the liquid guide cylinder 2. A sealing ring is padded at the connection between the detachable cap 4 and the liquid guide cylinder 2, so as to ensure the sealing effect of the liquid guide cylinder 2 and prevent the cooling water from overflowing from the detachable cap 4.
[0038] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention.
