[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a manual control device for the gate of the liquid receiving port of an insulation furnace includes a vertical gate 2 that is slidably connected to the liquid receiving port of the insulation furnace 1, and the lifting and lowering of the vertical gate realizes the opening and closing of the liquid receiving port of the insulation furnace. A frame 3 is provided on the liquid receiving port of the insulation furnace, and the gate is slidably connected to the frame. A driving mechanism 4 for driving the gate to lift is installed on the frame, and the gate is lifted and lowered by the driving mechanism.

[0024] The cam is connected to the vertical sliding frame 5 by the vertical sliding frame 5, and the two ends of the cam are connected to the vertical sliding frame 5 on the vertical side by the vertical sliding frame 5. The vertical gate is limited by the horizontal limit plate and the limit rod.

[0025] In this embodiment, for the sake of reasonable design, a load-bearing mounting frame 12 is placed horizontally between the upper ends of the two vertical sliding frames, and the driving mechanism is installed on the load-bearing mounting frame. The left and right sides of the load-bearing mounting frame extend out of the area between the two vertical sliding frames to form a cantilever mounting frame 13, that is, the driving mechanism is installed in the area between the load-bearing mounting frame and the cantilever mounting frame.

[0026] In this embodiment, in order to realize the pneumatic lifting of the vertical gate, a cylinder fixing seat 14 is installed under the end of the cantilever mounting frame, and the driving mechanism includes a chain transmission mechanism and a cylinder 15. The cylinder is vertically installed on the side of the cylinder fixing seat, and the chain transmission mechanism is installed on the load-bearing mounting frame and the cantilever mounting frame. The two ends of the chain on the chain transmission mechanism are respectively connected to the movable end of the cylinder and the middle part of the sliding connecting rod. When in use, the chain on the chain transmission mechanism is driven to move by the extension and contraction of the cylinder to realize the lifting or lowering of the vertical gate; more specific structure of the chain transmission mechanism The chain transmission mechanism includes two sprockets 16 and a chain 17, one of which is connected to the end of the cantilever mounting frame by vertical rotation corresponding to the end of the cylinder, and the other sprocket is connected to the load-bearing mounting frame by rotation corresponding to the middle part of the upper end of the vertical gate plate. The load-bearing mounting frame can be provided with a through-hole for the chain to pass through. The chain is assembled on the two sprockets, and the two ends of the chain are guided vertically downward by the sprockets on the same side and connected to the movable end of the cylinder or the middle part of the sliding connecting rod. Through the cooperation of the chain and the sprocket, the overall movement process is made smoother, and the extension and contraction of the cylinder drives the pneumatic lifting of the vertical gate plate.

[0027] In this embodiment, in order to be able to manually control the opening and closing of the gate in time when the cylinder fails, so as to avoid the high-temperature aluminum liquid overflowing the launder and causing personal injury to the operators or equipment loss, a manual drive mechanism 18 is provided between the two sprockets on the cantilever mounting frame, and the manual drive mechanism includes a screw 19, and a handwheel 20 is screwed to the outside of the screw, and the handwheel is rotatably connected to the cantilever mounting frame. The lower end of the screw passes through the cantilever mounting frame, that is, the screw is driven to rise and fall by the rotation of the handwheel, and the upper end of the screw is rotatably connected to a groove wheel 21, and the wheel groove on the groove wheel is against the chain. By rising or falling of the screw, the groove wheel can lift the middle part of the chain. At this time, due to the failure of the cylinder, the chain end on one side of the cylinder end is fixed, and the middle part of the chain is lifted, so that the chain on the sprocket corresponding to the vertical gate plate rises and lifts the vertical gate plate. On the contrary, since the groove wheel descends, the chain no longer lifts the vertical gate plate, and the vertical gate plate descends under the action of gravity.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to specifically realize the installation of the groove wheel, a U-shaped seat 22 is installed at the upper end of the screw, with both ends of the U-shaped seat facing upward, the bottom of the U-shaped seat is fixed to the upper end of the screw, and the groove wheel is rotatably connected between the two vertical parts of the U-shaped seat through a pin shaft.

[0029] In this embodiment, in order to realize the lifting and lowering of the screw driven by the handwheel, its specific structure is as follows: the handwheel includes a rotating sleeve 23, and the inner hole of the rotating sleeve is provided with a thread that cooperates with the screw, that is, the inner thread of the rotating sleeve cooperates with the screw to realize the lifting and lowering of the screw by rotating the rotating sleeve. A plurality of outwardly inclined connecting rods 24 are arranged at intervals on the outer periphery of one end of the rotating sleeve, and the outer ends of adjacent connecting rods are connected by arc connecting rods to form a handwheel handle 25. A rotating hole 26 is provided on the upper surface of the cantilever mounting frame corresponding to the rotating sleeve. When in use, the non-connecting rod end of the rotating sleeve is rotatably connected to the rotating hole, and the handwheel handle extends out of the rotating hole, and the rotating hole does not penetrate the cantilever. Arm mounting bracket, a through hole 27 is provided on the lower surface of the cantilever mounting bracket corresponding to the screw, the axial core line of the through hole is the same as the axial core line of the rotating hole, the through hole is connected to the rotating hole, which is convenient for the screw to extend, and the diameter of the through hole is smaller than the diameter of the rotating hole, so that the connection between the through hole and the rotating hole forms a step surface for the rotating sleeve to abut. When in use, it is necessary to grasp the U-shaped seat and then turn the handwheel to prevent the screw from rotating with the rotation of the handwheel. Of course, a vertical guide groove 28 can also be provided on the outer periphery of the screw along the axial direction, and a guide limit block 29 is provided in the through hole corresponding to the guide groove. The guide limit block cooperates with the guide groove to prevent the screw from rotating with the rotation of the handwheel.

[0030] In this embodiment, when in use, the steps for manually opening the gate plate are: first pull out the limit rod above the vertical gate plate, rotate the handwheel to make the chain rise and drive the vertical gate plate below to rise, and when it rises to the upper limit position to confirm that the vertical gate plate is fully opened, insert the limit rod to prevent the vertical gate plate from falling; the steps for manually closing the gate plate are: first pull out the limit rod on the front side of the vertical gate plate, rotate the handwheel to make the chain descend, and then under the action of gravity, the vertical gate plate below descends, and when it descends to the lower limit position to confirm that the vertical gate plate is fully closed, insert the limit rod.
