Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steel smelting, in particular to a device for improving the sealing effect of a converter oxygen gun mouth. Background Art
[0002] Oxygen blowing is an important process in converter steelmaking. The so-called blowing is the process of using an oxygen lance to spray high-pressure, high-speed industrial pure oxygen onto the surface of the molten crude metal to oxidize the impurities into gases (such as carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide) and escape, thereby obtaining a purer metal.
[0003] During blowing, the oxygen lance needs to pass through the oxygen lance mouth from top to bottom and then extend into the converter. A large amount of high-temperature flue gas and dust will be generated during blowing in the steelmaking converter. Most of the flue gas and dust will be sucked away by the primary dust removal fan, and a small amount will overflow from the poorly sealed area when the pressure changes. In order to prevent the oxygen lance from shaking significantly and a large amount of flue gas and dust from overflowing from the oxygen lance mouth, polluting the surrounding environment on site, most steel mills will design a nitrogen-sealed inner cone sleeve base at the nitrogen sealing port. By using a nitrogen sealing plug, a nitrogen sealing layer is formed, thereby preventing the oxygen lance from shaking and a large amount of flue gas and dust from overflowing under the large reaction force generated by the injection airflow, reducing the impact of flue gas and dust on the environment during the blowing process.
[0004] The nitrogen sealing principle of the traditional converter oxygen gun mouth is: when nitrogen enters the inner cavity of the nitrogen seal seat and passes through the annular hole on the inner wall of the nitrogen seal cone, the gap between the nitrogen seal seat and the nitrogen seal plug is sealed. However, the nitrogen sealing structure has the following defects: 1. There is no effective seal between the nitrogen plug and the oxygen gun, causing a large amount of flue gas and dust to overflow, and at the same time, air is sucked into the flue to form secondary combustion, which reduces the gas concentration and affects the converter gas recovery; 2. The nitrogen sealing method is not reliable enough and often fails to achieve a complete sealing effect, causing some flue gas and dust to overflow, especially during the intense carbon-oxygen reaction, the oxygen gun shakes greatly, and the flue gas and dust overflow is more serious. The main component of the flue gas is unburned CO, which poses a great safety hazard to normal safe production and fails to meet environmental protection requirements; 3. The nitrogen sealing method generally has the problem of high nitrogen consumption, which increases production costs. Utility Model Content
