[0002] The main drive motor of the aluminum and aluminum alloy sheet hot rolling mill is a large DC motor, and the cooling method is forced air cooling. Air is forced into the motor by a centrifugal fan to cool the motor. When the mill produces wide-width sheet strips, due to the large rolling force, the motor is in a full-load operation state for a long time and generates serious heat. However, the original air-cooling system cannot meet the working conditions of long-term full-load operation and must stop to cool down, which seriously disrupts the production rhythm and affects production efficiency. Especially in summer, the heat dissipation effect of the motor is worse, and overheating shutdowns are more frequent, severely restricting the output of the equipment.

[0027] Based on the above embodiments, in the embodiments of the present application, the submersible pump 2 is sequentially connected to the water curtain 4 through a first ball valve 7 and a first solenoid valve 8. The pipeline between the first ball valve 7 and the first solenoid valve 8 is connected to the spray gun 5 through a second solenoid valve 9. A third solenoid valve 11 and a second ball valve 12 are arranged on the compressed air pipeline 10 connected to the spray gun 5.
[0028] Under normal circumstances, the first ball valve 7 is in an open state. By providing the first solenoid valve 8 and the second solenoid valve 9, it is possible to select whether to use the water curtain 4 to cool the air or use the spray gun 5 to cool the air. If the environmental temperature is too high, the water curtain 4 and the spray gun 5 can also be combined to cool the air to enhance the cooling effect.
[0029] Based on the above embodiments, a production water pipeline 13 is connected to the pipeline between the first solenoid valve 8 and the first ball valve 7 of the embodiments of the present application. A third ball valve 14 and a fourth ball valve 15 are arranged on the production water pipeline 13.
[0030] When the submersible pump 2 in the reservoir 1 fails, production water can be conveyed to the water curtain 4 and the spray gun 5, and the system can be connected to the production water pipeline 13, having an emergency water supply function and can still operate in case of sudden failure.
[0031] Based on the above embodiments, the pipeline between the third ball valve 14 and the fourth ball valve 15 in the embodiments of the present application is connected to the reservoir 1 through the fifth ball valve 16 and the fourth solenoid valve 17.

The return ditch 21 is respectively connected to the recovery pool 20 and the reservoir 1, and the recovery pool 20 is higher than the reservoir 1.

When the fourth solenoid valve 17 is opened and the water storage tank 1 is filled with water until it reaches the limit of the float ball 18, the fourth solenoid valve 17 is controlled to close. When the motor is working, when the controller obtains that the motor temperature exceeds the preset value, that is, when the motor needs to be cooled down, the controller controls the submersible pump 2, the first solenoid valve 8, the second solenoid valve 9 and the third solenoid valve 11 to open. The submersible pump 2 pumps the water in the water storage tank 1 to the water curtain 4 and the spray gun 5. The water curtain 4 and the spray gun 5 form water mist to cool the air at the suction port of the cooling fan 6. The cold air is filtered by the filter screen 3 and then pumped by the fan to cool the motor; when the motor does not need to be cooled down, the controller controls the submersible pump 2, the first solenoid valve 8, the second solenoid valve 9 and the third solenoid valve 11 to close. When the submersible pump 2 fails, the fourth ball valve 15 is opened to convey the production water to the water curtain 4 and the spray gun 5 to realize temporary water supply and ensure the operation of the system. When the external environmental temperature is very high, especially in summer, ice cubes can be put into the water storage tank 1 to further improve the heat dissipation effect.
[0040] The present application uses a water curtain and a spray gun to atomize water to cool the air at the suction port of the cooling fan, thereby improving the air-cooling effect and reducing the influence of environmental factors on the cooling effect. The system is connected to the production water pipe and has an emergency water supply function, and can also operate in case of a sudden failure of the submersible pump. The system has a circulation function and can reduce water resource waste. By setting solenoid valves and interlocking with the motor temperature, automatic control is achieved. A filter screen is installed at the suction port of the cooling fan to isolate water vapor and avoid damaging the motor.
[0041] In addition, the motor cooling system of the present application has a simple structure, is easy to implement and maintain; it can be based on a conventional air-cooling system with minor modifications, and has strong reversibility and low transformation cost; compared with the conventional air-cooling system, it has a stronger cooling effect, small investment, quick results, and is suitable for the upgrade and transformation of existing air-cooling systems.
