[0016] In order to make the utility model purposes, technical solutions and advantages more clearly, the following will be further described in detail by specific embodiments in combination with the drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the utility model and not to limit the utility model.
[0017] In one embodiment, a feeding device for a reduction smelting furnace comprises three feeding belts, a feeding bin, a feeding trolley 5 and a trolley track 6. The feeding trolley 5 is a remote control trolley. The feeding bin comprises a feeding inlet and a discharging outlet. A distribution valve 1 is installed above the feeding inlet. The distribution valve 1 is an electrically operated on-off valve. The discharging end of the feeding belt is located directly above the distribution valve 1. The vertical surface of the distribution valve 1 is movably connected to a distribution valve track. The distribution valve track is horizontally arranged. The distribution valve can move horizontally on the distribution valve track. The feeding bin comprises a coke bin 2 and a slag bin 3. A vibrating feeder screen 4 is arranged at the discharging outlet of each of the coke bin 2 and the slag bin 3. The trolley track 6 is arranged between the discharging outlet and the reduction smelting furnace. A truck scale is installed on the trolley track 6 as a weighing device. At least six symmetrical weighing sensors 7 are installed on each truck scale. A weighing instrument 10 is connected to the truck scale. A secondary meter display is installed on site to calibrate the weighing sensors 7 of the truck scale and perform other operations. The feeding trolley 5 moves back and forth on the trolley track 6 to receive materials from the discharging outlet and then moves to the furnace opening of the reduction smelting furnace to add materials. The feeding trolley 5 moves above the truck scale. The furnace opening 8 of the reduction smelting furnace is provided with a flap. The flap is electrically connected to a photoelectric device 9 (i.e. a photoelectric switch in the attached drawings). The photoelectric device 9 is arranged at one end of the trolley track 6 close to the reduction smelting furnace. The feeding belt, the distribution valve 1, the vibrating feeder screen 4 and the weighing instrument 10 are electrically connected to a DCS control system. Figure 2
[0018] The truck scale weighing principle is as follows: when the feeding trolley drives onto the weighing platform of the truck scale, the weight of the feeding trolley is evenly transmitted to each weighing sensor through the weighing platform. The sensor converts the weight signal into an electrical signal and transmits it to the weighing instrument for processing and display. After receiving the electrical signal from the weighing sensor, the weighing instrument processes and calculates the signal to obtain the accurate weight of the feeding trolley. At the same time, the weighing instrument can display the weight data and transmit and manage the data through an interface with a third party device.
[0019] The specific working process is as follows: coke and slag are transported to coke bin 2 and slag bin 3 through three belts respectively, and the distribution mainly relies on distribution valve 1. Distribution valve 1 uses an electric on-off valve, and the control of the on-off valve is connected to a DCS cabinet to realize remote control and valve position feedback through configuration. There are coke position and slag position buttons in the picture, and the coke position and slag position can be switched through the switching button to control the belt running stop and the horizontal movement of the distribution valve, and there are valve position feedbacks of the coke position and the slag position. A vibrating feeder screen 4 is installed at the bottom of the charging bin, and the vibrating feeder screen is started and stopped and the frequency is controlled through a frequency converter and DCS communication. When the material needs to be discharged, the operator moves the charging trolley 5 to the truck scale on the trolley track 6 through the remote controller, the personnel in the main control room click the zero button on the picture to zero, set the discharge amount this time, start the coke vibrating feeder screen or the slag vibrating feeder screen, and the discharging starts. When the set value is reached, the value fed back to the DCS control system through the weighing instrument 10 controls the vibrating feeder screen to stop. The zeroing and weight feedback are connected to the DCS cabinet through hard wiring from the field control box. When the charging trolley reaches the furnace port, the photoelectric switch senses the charging trolley, and the flap is automatically opened. After the material is poured into the furnace, the charging trolley leaves the furnace port, the flap is automatically closed, and the charging process is completed. The photoelectric switch is connected in series in the control circuit of the flap switch, so as to control the opening and closing of the flap.
