Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of safety protection of foundry machinery, in particular to an explosion-proof pressure relief device for a centrifugal casting machine. Background Art
[0002] Centrifugal casting machines are widely used in the metallurgical casting industry. Most centrifugal casting machines are installed in an underground enclosed space. The centrifugal casting machine drives the cold mold to rotate at a high speed. Once a molten iron explosion accident occurs in the cold mold during the production process of the centrifugal casting machine, a large amount of high-temperature molten iron flows from the cold mold into the enclosed space where the centrifuge works, which will quickly heat and expand the air in the working space, and in severe cases, a gas explosion will occur, causing equipment and personal safety accidents.
[0003] To avoid accidents, once a molten iron runaway accident occurs during the production process of the centrifuge, a measure or a device must be taken to quickly relieve the pressure of the rapidly expanding gas in the centrifuge space, prevent gas explosion, and avoid equipment or personal safety accidents. Summary of the Utility Model

The movable cover plate includes a bottom fixing block arranged at the outlet, a sliding guide groove is arranged in the bottom fixing block, one end of a long beam is arranged in the sliding guide groove and can slide in the sliding guide groove, the other end of the long beam is hinged to the top fixing block, and a cover plate body is arranged outside the top fixing block
[0006] A fence is arranged around the movable cover plate.
[0007] A further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model lies in that: the bottom surface of the L-shaped pressure relief pipe is an inclined surface that rises from the inside to the outside for easy pressure relief, and the outlet of the L-shaped pressure relief pipe is flush with the ground.
[0008] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: one end of a short beam is also hinged to the top fixing block, a transition beam is arranged between the top fixing block and the bottom fixing block, and the connection method is that the tail end of the transition beam is hinged to the bottom fixing block, the head end of the transition beam is hinged to the other end of the short beam, and the middle part of the transition beam is hinged to the middle part of the long beam.
[0009] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: an anti-corrosion coating is provided on the outer surface of the cover plate body.
[0010] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: a waterproof sealing strip is wrapped around the side of the cover plate body.
[0011] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical progress achieved by the present utility model is as follows: by opening a number of holes directly leading to the ground on the side wall of the enclosed space, in cooperation with the pressure relief pipe, and at the same time, the bottom of the pressure relief pipe is set as an inclined surface rising from the inside to the outside, it can enable the centrifugal machine to quickly heat, expand, and boost the gas in the centrifugal machine space after a fire accident occurs in the cold die during the production process. When the pressure reaches a certain level, the expanded gas can be discharged from the holes of the pressure relief pipe to prevent explosion accidents. By providing a movable cover plate at the holes of the pressure relief pipe, and in cooperation with structures such as fixing blocks, guide grooves, and beams, a one-way conduction that opens from the inside to the outside can be realized. It can not only ensure that when the internal gas expands, the cover plate can be quickly pushed open from the inside to the outside to complete pressure relief, but also ensure a completely closed state from the outside to the inside usually, preventing the fall of people or objects and causing accidents. By providing a transition beam structure on the cover plate, it can not only make the opening and closing more smooth and realize functions such as limiting, but also share stress, extending the service life of the cover plate.

[0018] Embodiment 1
[0019] As Figure 1 shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of a device for explosion-proof pressure relief of a centrifugal casting machine, including a confined space arranged underground. A centrifugal casting machine 1 is arranged in the confined space. In this embodiment, the centrifugal casting machine 1 is specifically a 4000-disc centrifuge, with a maximum load of 70t and a casting iron water volume between 15 - 20t. A centrifuge protective cover plate 2 is arranged above the confined space. When the centrifugal casting machine 1 is started, the centrifuge protective cover plate 2 closes to achieve the confinement of the underground space. A number of explosion-proof openings 4 are opened on the side wall 3 of one side of the confined space. As Figure 2 shown, in this embodiment, the specific number of the explosion-proof openings 4 is 3. An L-shaped pressure relief pipe 5 is connected to each explosion-proof opening 4. The outlet of the L-shaped pressure relief pipe 5 leads to the ground and is flush with the ground. When an accident of molten iron explosion occurs in the cold mold in the confined space and a large amount of molten iron quickly overflows, the gas in the centrifuge space will expand rapidly, generating high-temperature and high-pressure gas. The expanded high-pressure gas can enter the L-shaped pressure relief pipe 5 through the explosion-proof opening 4 and be discharged from the ground opening to complete the explosion-proof pressure relief in the underground confined space. The bottom surface of the L-shaped pressure relief pipe 5 is an inclined surface that rises from the inside to the outside for facilitating pressure relief. Symmetric movable cover plates 6 of the same specification are arranged at the outlet of the L-shaped pressure relief pipe 5. Specifically, as Figure 3As shown in the figure, the movable cover plate 6 is a one-way conduction structure that opens from the inside to the outside, including a bottom fixing block 61 provided at the outlet. A sliding guide groove 62 is provided in the bottom fixing block 61. One end of the long beam 65 is arranged in the sliding guide groove 62 and can slide in the sliding guide groove 62. The other end of the long beam 65 is hinged to the top fixing block 66. A cover plate body 63 is arranged outside the top fixing block 66. One end of a short beam 67 is also hinged to the top fixing block 66. A transition beam 64 is arranged between the top fixing block 66 and the bottom fixing block 61. The connection method is that the tail end of the transition beam 64 is hinged to the bottom fixing block 61, the head end of the transition beam 64 is hinged to the other end of the short beam 67, and the middle part of the transition beam 64 is hinged to the middle part of the long beam 65. An anti-corrosion coating is provided on the outer surface of the cover plate body 63. A waterproof sealing strip is wrapped around the side of the cover plate body 63. By this means, when the two movable cover plates are completely closed usually, they can completely block the outlet of the L-shaped pressure relief pipe 5 to prevent water ingress and falling. Only when there is an accident in the closed space and the high-pressure gas expands, the movable cover plate 6 will be pushed open from the inside to the outside by the expanding gas for pressure relief, preventing gas explosion and avoiding equipment or personal safety accidents. A fence 7 is arranged around the movable cover plate 6 to play a warning role.
[0020] The utility model can be widely applied to casting equipment working in a closed space to prevent gas explosion accidents caused by the overflow of molten iron due to equipment or die failures.
[0021] The above-described embodiments are only used to describe the preferred embodiments of the utility model, and do not limit the scope of the utility model. Without departing from the design spirit of the utility model, various deformations and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solution of the utility model shall fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the utility model.
