TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to converter tapping slag blocking technology field, specifically disclose a kind of guiding type slag ball. BACKGROUND
[0002] Tapping slag blocking is to keep the maximum slag in the furnace by certain method, to reduce the converter high oxidizing final slag in tapping process into ladle. And reduce the converter tapping slag quantity is an important aspect to improve the quality of molten steel. In the process of converter tapping, the slag blocking operation can not only stabilize the chemical composition of molten steel, but also reduce the inclusions in steel, improve the cleanliness of molten steel, and can reduce ladle slag, extend the service life of ladle. At the same time, it can also reduce refractory material, and correspondingly improve the service life of converter tapping port refractory material, and provide good conditions for molten steel refining.
[0003] But the main method of slag blocking ball and slag blocking plug (cone) is widely used at present, and the advantages of slag blocking ball are low cost, simple operation. The disadvantage is that the hit rate of ball is low, and the slag blocking ball usually reaches the tapping hole in the form of following the flow. However, due to the high viscosity of steel slag, the slag blocking ball sometimes cannot reach the tapping hole smoothly, or cannot effectively block the tapping hole when the molten steel flows out. In addition, due to the complete falling of circular slag blocking ball on the tapping hole, the probability of premature blocking of tapping hole is significantly increased, which reduces the molten steel yield, and the effect of slag blocking is general.
[0004] The advantages of slag blocking plug (cone) are that the tapping car is put into the tapping hole, and the lower part is a guide rod, so that the slag blocking plug can automatically and accurately reach the predetermined position. Because the cone body has a groove, the vortex is suppressed, and when the slag blocking plug blocks the tapping hole, the residual steel can still flow into the ladle through the groove, so that the molten steel yield is improved. The disadvantage is that the guide rod is melted during tapping, and the upper cone body is easy to be turned over. On the other hand, when the service life of tapping hole reaches the later stage, the inner hole vortex increases, and the slag blocking cone is easy to be turned over and float, so that the probability of slag blocking failure increases.
