Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a slag pot device for collecting cold steel in an RH vacuum tank, belonging to the field of metallurgical equipment. Background Art

[0002] RH vacuum refining, a specialized refining technology, has been widely used in steel production. Its key equipment includes vacuum tanks, top lances, ladle cars, vacuum tank trolleys, elevated silos, and vacuum silos. Chemical reactions within the vacuum tank during vacuum refining are intense, particularly the carbon-oxygen reaction in the molten steel. This can cause splashing to heights exceeding 10 meters, easily causing steel to adhere to the tank walls. Typically, oxygen is blown into the hot vacuum tank at ambient temperature and pressure to remove the cold steel from the tank. During RH refining, a slag basin is typically used to collect the cold steel. However, the shallow depth of the slag basin can easily cause cold steel to splash out and adhere to the ladle car, making it difficult to clean. Furthermore, the slag basin's small volume allows for a relatively small amount of cold steel to be stored at any one time, making it prone to overflow and difficult to clean, posing a safety hazard. The slag basin also lacks a hook for dumping, making it difficult to empty. Therefore, a slag basin system for collecting cold steel in RH vacuum tanks is needed. This system has a large capacity, can accommodate a large amount of cold steel, and is easily hoisted and dumped. Utility Model Content
