Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metallurgical auxiliary equipment technology, specifically relating to a top platform with flat guide wheels on the top of a converter gas holder. Background Technology
[0002] In the steel production process, converter gas holders are one of the key pieces of equipment, and their operational stability and safety directly affect the efficiency and safety of the entire production line. The guide rollers on the top of the gas holder, as an important component, require regular maintenance and inspection. However, traditionally designed straight ladders often suffer from problems such as simple installation, proximity to the edge of the gas holder leading to safety hazards when personnel climb, insufficient stability, and difficulty in maintenance, making it difficult to meet the modern steel enterprises' demands for efficient, safe, and easy-to-maintain equipment.
[0003] In summary, the existing technology's top-mounted guide wheel platform with a straight ladder is located near the edge of the cabinet and lacks guardrails, posing a safety hazard of personnel falling from heights. Furthermore, the ladder's simple design and installation result in insufficient stability and difficult maintenance. Therefore, this paper proposes a top-mounted guide wheel platform for converter gas holders. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, a piston stop is provided on one side of the top of the piston top plate.
[0007] Preferably, the outer wall of the converter gas holder top plate is provided with a top frame.
[0008] Preferably, the balancing guide wheel platform is provided with balancing guide wheels.

[0017] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0018] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0019] Example 1, such as Figure 1As shown, a top platform for a converter gas holder with a top guide wheel 2 includes a piston top plate 6. The piston top plate 6 is the top platform of the external hydraulic system, capable of height adjustment for easy personnel inspection, and provides load-bearing and support. Behind the piston top plate 6 is a converter gas holder top plate 3, which is the top structure of the converter gas holder. As the structural outer shell of the converter gas holder, it bears pressure and load, provides protection against external contaminants, and serves as an operation and maintenance platform where operators can perform regular inspections and maintenance of the converter gas holder.
[0020] A balancing guide wheel platform 1 is installed on one side of the converter gas holder. The balancing guide wheel platform 1 provides a stable platform to ensure stability and reliability during the balancing operation, supports the installation and disassembly of the equipment, facilitates daily maintenance and operation, has a reasonable design, can bear a large weight, ensures safe operation under high load conditions, and has an optimized structure that can effectively reduce vibration and improve the smoothness of operation.
[0021] An inclined ladder device 7 is installed between the leveling guide wheel platform 1 and the top plate 3 of the converter gas holder. The inclined ladder device 7 provides operators with a safe and convenient passage to and from the platform. The design of the inclined ladder device 7 is more in line with modern safety standards. It is equipped with guardrails to protect personnel safety and reduce safety hazards caused by operational errors.
[0022] The specific design of the aforementioned key components will be discussed in detail below:
[0023] A piston stop 5 is provided on one side of the top of the piston top plate 6. The piston stop 5 is made of high-strength steel and can withstand a certain weight. The piston stop 5 is designed to facilitate climbing by workers, and its edges are smoothly finished to prevent scratches.
[0024] The outer wall of the converter gas holder top plate 3 is equipped with a top frame 4. The top frame 4 is made of multiple strips of high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy material, using a mesh structure to increase the overall load-bearing capacity and wind pressure resistance. The purpose of the top frame 4 is to enhance the overall strength of the converter gas holder top plate 3, prevent deformation or damage, and ensure long-term stable operation. The surface of the top frame 4 is coated with an anti-corrosion coating to prevent corrosion caused by the gas surrounding the gas holder.
[0025] The balancing guide wheel platform 1 is equipped with balancing guide wheels 2. Each balancing guide wheel 2 adopts a rolling bearing design, with the outer ring made of wear-resistant material to enhance service life, reduce friction, and ensure excellent rotational smoothness. The arrangement of the balancing guide wheels 2 is precisely calculated to ensure balance in both the lateral and longitudinal directions, and when used together, it can reduce the impact of the counterweight on the underlying structure. The balancing guide wheels 2 are connected to the platform via adjustable brackets for easy maintenance and adjustment to adapt to different load distributions.
[0026] The inclined ladder device 7 is covered with an anti-slip material, and guardrails are installed on both sides of the top. The steps of the inclined ladder are covered with a wear-resistant and anti-slip material, which can be rubber or polyurethane coating, to improve safety in wet or oily environments and reduce the risk of slipping. The guardrails are made of steel pipes, and their height and spacing comply with safety standards, providing sufficient protection while making operators feel safe and stable when climbing. The angle of the inclined ladder device 7 can be adjusted according to the installation site conditions to ensure convenience and safety during use.
[0027] The piston stop 5 and the balancing guide wheel platform 1 are arranged adjacent to each other on the same side. When operating the piston, the balancing guide wheel 2 can be adjusted or maintained smoothly and quickly, reducing the walking distance, improving work efficiency, and helping to achieve operational continuity. This allows operators to move to the work site more quickly and conveniently during routine maintenance, reducing the risk of misoperation.
[0028] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
