AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the production of sponge titanium, existing technologies cannot effectively prevent the overflow of molten magnesium during the magnesium addition process, leading to safety accidents and increased costs.

Method used

A sealed platform is designed, which controls the magnesium liquid by setting an argon filling pipe, a guide pipe and a connecting flange on the platform cavity, and setting a sealing gasket at the connection. The pipe diameter is designed so that the lower guide pipe is larger than the upper guide pipe to break the siphon phenomenon.

Benefits of technology

It effectively prevents magnesium liquid from overflowing, reduces the risk of safety accidents and lowers production costs, and has a simple and durable structure.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a production apparatus for sponge titanium, and particularly to a sealed platform for the production of sponge titanium. Background Technology

[0002] The production of sponge titanium uses the Krauer process. Molten magnesium is used in a sealed container (reactor and lid combination) to reduce titanium tetrachloride to titanium and magnesium chloride. Before reduction, high-temperature molten magnesium is transported from the electrolytic magnesium chloride process to the reduction workshop via a magnesium adding tank. Magnesium from the adding tank is then injected into the reactor using a siphon principle through a conduit for reduction. However, if magnesium overflows during addition, current technology lacks the means to break the siphon mechanism, allowing magnesium to spill out of the reactor, potentially leading to accidents and increased production costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve the technical problem that when magnesium overflows during the addition of magnesium in a magnesium-adding station, it is impossible to stop the magnesium from continuing to flow out of the station.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A sealed platform for the production of sponge titanium includes an argon filling pipe at the upper part of the platform cavity; a guide pipe A is provided on the platform cavity, a connecting flange A is provided at the top of the guide pipe A, the connecting flange A is connected to the connecting flange B by bolts, the connecting flange B is connected to the upper guide pipe B, and the upper guide pipe B is connected to the lower guide pipe C.

[0006] A sealing gasket is provided between the connecting flange A and the connecting flange B;

[0007] The diameter of the lower guide pipe C is larger than that of the upper guide pipe B.

[0008] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are:

[0009] 1. This utility model realizes the siphon principle of adding magnesium through the guide pipe when adding magnesium in the sponge titanium production process, thereby solving the technical problem of being unable to stop the magnesium from continuing to flow out of the magnesium adding platform.

[0010] 2. This utility model reduces production costs and avoids escalating safety accidents.

[0011] 4. This utility model has a simple structure and is durable. Attached Figure Description

[0013] In the diagram: 1 - cavity body, 2 - argon filling tube, 3 - guide tube A, 4 - connecting flange A, 5 - connecting flange B, 6 - guide tube B, 7 - guide tube C. Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should not be construed that the scope of the subject matter of the present invention is limited to the following embodiments. Any modifications, substitutions and alterations made based on ordinary technical knowledge and conventional means in the art without departing from the above-described technical concept of the present invention are included within the scope of the present invention.

[0015] A sealed platform for the production of sponge titanium includes an argon filling pipe 2 located at the upper part of the platform cavity 1; a guide pipe A3 located on the platform cavity 1; a connecting flange A4 located at the top of the guide pipe A3; the connecting flange A4 being connected to the connecting flange B5 by bolts; the connecting flange B5 being connected to the upper guide pipe B6; and the upper guide pipe B6 being connected to the lower guide pipe C7.

[0016] A sealing gasket is provided between the connecting flange A4 and the connecting flange B5;

[0017] The diameter of the lower guide pipe C7 is larger than that of the upper guide pipe B6, mainly to disrupt the siphon phenomenon.
