[Specific implementation method]

[0027] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0028] The utility model provides an automatic mud loading device for mud guns in front of iron-making blast furnaces, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device comprises an inverted cone-shaped mud storage bin 6, the top feed port of which is used to receive the taphole mud from the upper mud bag 22. A three-edged knife 23 is installed on the top of the mud storage bin 6 for cutting open the mud bag 22. A bag-breaking device with the three-edged knife 23 is installed at the mouth of the mud storage bin 6. A mud bag is hoisted directly above the mud storage bin 6 using a furnace crane 21. The bottom of the lower mud bag is then broken open by the three-edged knife, and the taphole mud falls into the mud storage bin 6, replacing the manual bag-opening operation. A protective cap is also manufactured and installed during maintenance to prevent injury.

[0029] The bottom discharge port of the mud storage bin 6 is connected to a mud pushing chamber 4; both sides of the mud pushing chamber 4 are open in the horizontal direction; wherein, one side of the mud pushing chamber 4 is connected to the mud inlet of the mud gun bucket 13 through a downwardly inclined chute 7 and a vertically arranged mud drop pipe 10 in sequence; the other side of the mud pushing chamber 4 is equipped with a mud pushing cylinder 3 that moves back and forth along its axis; a pair of shark fin knives 5 are provided at one end of the mud pushing cylinder 3 close to the mud pushing chamber 4, and the angle formed between the tops of the two shark fin knives 5 is 30°. When the mud pushing cylinder 3 moves back and forth along its axis, it simultaneously cuts the mud blocks above the mud pushing chamber 4, destroys the arched structure formed by the mud blocks after the cylinder is withdrawn, accelerates the crushing and downward movement of the mud blocks by their own weight, and improves the mud pushing efficiency.

[0030] Among them, the mud pushing cylinder 3 is used to push a certain amount of gun mud, so that the gun mud is loaded into the mud gun mud barrel 13 through the chute 7 and the mud drop pipe 10.

[0031] The top of the mud drop pipe 10 is provided with a fixed funnel 8, and the mud inlet of the gun mud barrel 13 is also provided with a movable funnel 12, which can better collect the gun mud. The bottom of the mud drop pipe 10 is provided with a valve 11 to facilitate the control of the unloading time.

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the wall surface of the mud pushing cylinder 3 near one end of the mud pushing chamber 4 is a mud pushing plate 35. The end of the mud pushing cylinder 3 away from the mud pushing chamber 4 is sleeved on the outside of a cylindrical slide rail 28. A cylinder 2 is coaxially disposed within the slide rail 28, and a connecting plate 31 is vertically mounted on the end of the piston rod 36 of the cylinder 2. An annular baffle 30 is disposed inside the mud pushing cylinder 3. The connecting plate 31 is configured to reciprocate between the baffle 30 and the inner wall of the mud pushing plate 35, thereby driving the mud pushing cylinder 3 to reciprocate horizontally along the slide rail 28.

[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the connecting plate 31 is threadedly connected to the piston rod 36 via a nut 32 , and a rib 33 is provided at the end of the piston rod 36 and located outside the nut 32 .

[0034] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the oil cylinder 2 is connected to an oil inlet pipe 1 and an oil outlet pipe, and the oil source of the oil inlet pipe 1 is drawn from the hydraulic operating room of the furnace platform, replacing an independent hydraulic station.

[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the mud pushing chamber 4 is placed on an electronic scale 19 through a bracket 18. It is used to accurately control the total amount of mud in the mud pushing chamber 4 each time.

[0036] In some embodiments, as Figure 1As shown, a dust cover 9 is provided at the bottom of the electronic scale 19, and heat insulation cotton 20 is provided between the dust cover 9 and the electronic scale 19. The heat insulation cotton 20 can insulate and keep the temperature of the device stable.

[0037] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, a limit rope 14 is installed on the mud pushing tube 3 and is led to the mud gun operating position through a pulley. The end of the limit rope 14 is installed with an upper limiter 15, a lower limiter 16 and a counterweight 17 in sequence from top to bottom, which is convenient for automatically controlling the stroke of the mud pushing tube 3.

[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the entire system is controlled by a remote control. An electronic screen 24 is installed on site to display and record the mud loading volume in real time. Instrumentation and control procedures are set up so that mud loading operations can be completed by one person using a single remote control button.

[0039] The utility model discloses an automatic mud loading device for a mud gun in front of an ironmaking blast furnace. The three-edged knife 23 breaks open the mud bag 22 and drops the mud into the mud storage bin 6. The mud then falls into the mud pushing chamber 4 under its own weight. The oil cylinder 2 is activated to push the foamed mud in the mud pushing chamber 4 into the chute 7 and into the fixed funnel 8. The funnel is connected to a mud drop pipe 10 that passes vertically through a dust removal cover 9. A valve 11 is installed at the lower end of the mud drop pipe 10, which is opened when loading mud and closed when not in use. The mud drop pipe 10 is directly opposite the mud gun loading port, and a movable funnel 12 is installed on the mud loading port. Mud can be quantitatively placed in the mud gun mud barrel 13 from the mud storage bin 6. After the mud pushing barrel 3 is activated to push the mud, mud continues to be loaded until the specified amount is reached.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the working process of the automatic mud loading device for the mud gun in front of the ironmaking blast furnace of the utility model is as follows:

[0041] Mud gun mud tube 13 is placed below mud drop pipe 10, and movable funnel 12 is installed to the opening of mud gun mud tube 13, and valve 11 remains open. Ensure that the enough mud gun mud tube 13 of the gun mud amount of mud storage bin 6 uses at least once.

[0042] The mud is loaded by pushing the mud tube 3, and the electronic scale 19 measures and cooperates with it. When the pushed mud is enough to load 1 / 3 of the mud gun, the mud is stopped and the mud is driven out.

[0043] The mud gun is initialized and the mud pushing is started again; through the measurement of the electronic scale 19, when the mud pushed is enough to fill the mud gun to 2 / 3, the mud pushing is stopped and the mud rushing is started;

[0044] The mud gun is initialized and the mud pushing is started again; through the measurement of the electronic scale 19, when the mud pushed is enough to fill the mud gun to 3 / 3, the mud pushing is stopped and the mud driving is started;

[0045] The mud gun is initialized and the mud loading is completed; the valve 11 is closed, the movable funnel 12 is removed, and the power supply of the mud gun loading device is turned off.

[0046] If all the mud is piled at the muzzle at once, it can easily cause spillage. Therefore, this application uses a three-step loading process. In between, the muzzle's pushing piston squeezes the loaded mud to the front of the chamber, compacting it and freeing up space at the rear for further loading. This process is repeated three times. Manual operation allows for immediate mud replenishment. The mud pushing action can be manually determined to stop. For example, when the muzzle is determined to be 3 / 3 full, pushing can be stopped to allow subsequent loading to complete.

[0047] The utility model installs a three-edged knife bag breaking device at the mud storage bin feed, which can easily break the bottom of the mud bag and let the gun mud fall into the mud storage bin, replacing the manual bag opening operation, and the material unloading speed is very fast. A pair of shark fin knives are installed at the front end of the mud pushing barrel, and the mud blocks above are cut synchronously when the mud pushing barrel advances and retreats, destroying the arched structure formed by the mud blocks after the barrel retreats, accelerating the crushing of the mud blocks and downward movement by their own weight, and improving the mud pushing efficiency. The utility model takes up little space and is easy to arrange, realizing the true automation of mud loading, and greatly reducing the equipment cost, making it easier to promote. Enterprises with the conditions can assemble and install it by themselves.
