[0017] The following is a combination of the appended examples of the present invention Figure 1-3 As shown, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] This embodiment provides an electric arc furnace with convenient unloading, which is used to uniformly charge the electric arc furnace during smelting to improve product quality. The electric arc furnace in this embodiment is similar to the prior art in that both include a heating furnace body 1, a removable furnace cover 5 is provided at the top opening of the heating furnace body 1, and the furnace cover 5 is provided with a hook 7 for facilitating lifting by a crane. A heating structure is provided within the heating furnace body 1 for heating the interior thereof, and a lower hopper 10 is provided on the furnace cover 5 that is connected to the interior thereof. Material enters the heating furnace body 1 from the lower hopper 10, thereby achieving charging. At the same time, to ensure the fixing of the charging hopper, a plurality of support rods 6 are provided on the outer circumference of the lower hopper 10 and connected to the upper end surface of the heating furnace body 1.

[0020] The difference between this embodiment and the prior art is that: a conical plug 12 is provided inside the heating furnace body 1 and is coaxial with the lower hopper 10. The small diameter end of the conical plug 12 is located inside the lower hopper 10. A material discharge channel is formed between the conical plug 12 and the lower hopper 10 for the material to fall. The material in the lower hopper 10 enters the heating furnace body 1 through the discharge channel. During the falling process, the material falls on the conical plug 12 and falls along the conical plug 12. The conical plug 12 guides the material so that the material is scattered in all directions. At the same time, a control component for controlling the vertical movement of the conical plug 12 is provided above the lower hopper 10. When the conical plug 12 moves to the highest position, the outer circumference of the conical plug 12 contacts the inner side of the lower hopper 10, thereby sealing the lower hopper 10 and preventing the material from falling from the lower hopper 10 when feeding is not required. At the same time, the heating furnace body 1 is sealed to avoid a large amount of heat energy loss. In this embodiment, the control component controls the vertical movement of the conical plug 12 to change the range of the material sliding down the conical plug 12. At the same time, the upward and downward movement of the conical plug 12 can prevent the material accumulated in the lower hopper 10 from being blocked.

[0021] In this embodiment, the control component is a hydraulic rod, and a horizontal plate is provided at the large-diameter end of the lower hopper 10. One end of the hydraulic rod is connected to the lower end surface of the horizontal plate, and the other end of the hydraulic rod is connected to the lower hopper 10. At the same time, in order to reduce the load of the control component, the conical plug 12 is set to a hollow structure.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] The present embodiment provides an electric arc furnace that is convenient for unloading. The structure of the electric arc furnace in this embodiment is similar to most of the structures of the electric arc furnace in Example 1, except that: the control assembly in this embodiment includes a positioning transverse plate 11, a pull rope 4, and two fixed pulleys 7. One end of the positioning transverse plate 11 is connected to the end face of the large diameter end of the unloading hopper 10, and the other end of the positioning transverse plate is located above the conical plug 12. The two fixed pulleys 7 are sequentially arranged on both sides of the upper end face of the positioning transverse plate 11. One end of the pull rope 4 is connected to the center of the small diameter end of the conical plug 12, and the other end passes through the two fixed pulleys 7 in turn and is hung on the outside. The positioning transverse plate 11 fixes the position of the two fixed pulleys 7. The two fixed pulleys 7 are used to reduce the friction of pulling the pull rope 4 and guide the pull rope 4 at the same time. The setting of the pull rope 4 enables the staff to manually control the vertical movement of the conical plug 12. It should be noted here that when the end of the pull rope 4 is hooked to the external fixing part, the conical plug 12 contacts the discharge hopper 10 to achieve sealing of the heating furnace body 1. Only when the end of the pull rope 4 is removed from the external fixing part and the pull rope 4 is pulled down by hand, the discharge channel can be controlled to open.

[0024] In this embodiment, the wheel frames of the two fixed pulleys 7 are each provided with a U-shaped stopper 9 that covers the wheel groove of the fixed pulley 7. A limit space for the pull rope 4 to pass through is formed between the U-shaped stopper 9 and the fixed pulley 7. The U-shaped stopper 9 limits the pull rope 4 that passes around the fixed pulley 7 and prevents the pull rope 4 from falling off the fixed pulley 7.

[0025] In this embodiment, the pull rope 4 is located between the two fixed pulleys 7 and is provided with a positioning block 13 with a width greater than the limiting space. The position of the pull rope 4 is limited by the positioning block, so that the pull rope 4 can fall into the interior of the heating furnace body 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the fixing of the pulling rope 4 to the heating furnace body 1, a positioning hook 2 with the hook body facing downward is provided on the lower outer wall. The end of the pulling rope 4 away from the tapered plug 12 is provided with a hanging ring 3 that can cooperate with the positioning hook 2.

[0027] The above describes the specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and those skilled in the art may make various modifications or variations within the scope of the claims, which do not affect the essence of the present invention.
