Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of block making machines, and more particularly to a converter tapping hole annular brick block making machine. Background Art

[0002] In the metallurgical industry, the steelmaking process is the key to ensuring the quality of steel. The outer shell of the steelmaking furnace is made of steel structure parts and lined with high-temperature resistant materials (commonly known as refractory materials). The outlet of the steelmaking furnace is often designed as a round mouth due to the requirements of slag blocking and facilitating the flow of molten steel, and is lined with formed annular refractory bricks.

[0003] The masonry workers are faced with huge physical and technical challenges when laying the taphole ring refractory bricks. Each taphole ring refractory brick weighing 300 kg needs to be accurately installed in the designated position (reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 During this process, workers must rely on specialized tools like manual hoists, crowbars, and levers to lift, align, and secure the refractory bricks. The heavy workload, tight deadlines, and the limited width and height of the work area not only increase the complexity and risk of the operation, but also place extremely high demands on the workers' physical strength and endurance.

[0004] In such a cramped working environment, the installation of each refractory brick requires meticulous work, often lasting five to six hours at a time. The long, intense labor, coupled with the harsh on-site environmental conditions—high temperatures, dust, noise, and confined space—undoubtedly places a significant strain on the workers' health. Furthermore, due to the unique nature and complexity of the work, each masonry operation presents certain safety risks, highlighting the importance of improving existing working methods and introducing automated or semi-automated equipment to reduce labor intensity, improve work efficiency, and ensure operational safety.

Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] In order to further understand the content of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Combine Figure 1-Figure 5 The converter tapping hole annular brick block making machine of the present invention is mainly used to pull the five annular refractory bricks 7 of the tapping hole 6 to the masonry position, realizing the mechanized transmission and positioning of the annular refractory bricks 7, saving manpower, ensuring safe production and efficient production, and reducing the masonry time. The tapping hole 6 is placed in the masonry position and a limit block is set to prevent the annular refractory bricks 7 from falling from the tapping hole 6. The block making machine includes a bracket 1, a power component and a traction component, wherein the power component is installed on one side of the bracket 1, and the power component drives the traction component to work, driving the annular refractory bricks 7 to move to the masonry position. The bracket 1 is connected to the tapping hole 6 by bolts to support the power component and the traction component. Their structure and working principle are described in detail below.

[0026] In this embodiment, the bracket 1 includes a first steel plate 11, a first steel pipe 12 and a second steel plate 13. The first steel plate 11 and the second steel plate 13 are arranged in parallel. The two ends of the first steel pipe 12 are fixedly connected to the first steel plate 11 and the second steel plate 13 respectively. Bolt holes are provided at both ends of the first steel plate 11, and a flange is provided at the port of the steel outlet 6. The bracket 1 is connected to the steel outlet 6 by bolts passing through the threaded holes on the first steel plate 11 and the flange. The first steel pipe 12 is used to guide the screw 4, and the second steel plate 13 is used for installing and fixing the worm gear reducer 3.

[0027] In this embodiment, the power assembly includes a motor 2 and a worm gear reducer 3. The input shaft of the worm gear reducer 3 is connected to the motor 2, and the output end of the worm gear reducer 3 is connected to the screw 4. The motor 2 adopts a servo motor and can perform stepless speed regulation. The worm gear reducer 3 works under the drive of the motor 2, driving the screw 4 to move horizontally.

[0028] In this embodiment, the traction assembly includes a screw rod 4 and a positioning cover 5. The screw rod 4 passes through the steel outlet 6, and one end of the screw rod 4 engages with the positioning cover 5. When the screw rod 4 moves horizontally, the annular refractory brick 7 is pulled to the masonry position through the positioning cover 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, the screw rod 4 passes through the worm gear reducer 3, and a first dust cover 41 is sleeved on the screw rod 4 between the positioning cover 5 and the worm gear reducer 3, and a second dust cover 42 is sleeved on the screw rod 4 on the other side of the worm gear reducer 3. The end of the screw rod 4 close to the second dust cover 42 is connected to the ear 43, and the two ends of the second dust cover 42 are respectively connected to the ear 43 and the side wall of the worm gear reducer 3. The first dust cover 41 and the second dust cover 42 are both cylindrical telescopic protective covers, which can automatically extend and retract to adjust the distance as the screw rod 4 moves horizontally, thereby achieving effective protection for the screw rod 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, the positioning cover 5 includes a second steel tube 51, a nut 52, a circular plate 53 and a handle 54. The center of the circular plate 53 is fixedly connected to the nut 52, the nut 52 is engaged with the screw rod 4, the second steel tube 51 is fixedly connected to one side of the circular plate 53, and is used to position the annular refractory brick 7.

[0031] Working process: Connect the bracket 1 to the steel outlet 6 with bolts, fix the position of the screw 4, rotate the positioning cover 5 to remove it from the screw 4, pass the center hole of the annular refractory brick 7 to be laid through one end of the screw 4, connect the positioning cover 5 to the screw 4, and the second steel pipe 51 supports and positions the annular refractory brick 7. The motor 2 controls the worm gear reducer 3 to work, driving the screw 4 to move horizontally outside the steel outlet 6. The screw 4 controls the positioning cover 5 to pull the annular refractory brick 7 to the laying position. After positioning, the furnace builder fills the gap between the outer circle of the annular refractory brick 7 and the steel structure of the steel outlet 6 with refractory mud. After the first annular refractory brick 7 is laid, start the motor 2 to reverse, and the screw 4 and the positioning cover 5 move into the furnace. After they are in place, align the center hole of the next annular refractory brick 7 with the screw 4 and tighten the positioning cover 5. Continue the previous operation, and so on. Operate in sequence to achieve mechanized operation.
