Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refractory brick testing technology, specifically to a refractory brick thermal shock resistance testing device. Background Technology
[0002] Refractory bricks are an indispensable basic brick in high-temperature industries. Currently, refractory bricks are mainly used in production equipment in metallurgy, petrochemicals, cement, ceramics and other industries. In addition to withstanding high temperatures during operation, they must also resist the damage caused by rapid temperature changes. The ability of refractory bricks to resist rapid temperature changes without damage is called the thermal shock resistance of refractory bricks. Thermal shock damage is one of the two major causes of damage to refractory bricks. Therefore, the thermal shock resistance of refractory bricks is an important property.
[0003] Traditional thermal shock resistance testing devices for refractory bricks typically use bolts to fix the bricks and additional iron blocks between them to ensure stability. Firstly, as solid structures, the bolts and iron blocks are subject to thermal stress during heating, leading to a decrease in structural strength and stability, thus affecting the accuracy of the test. Furthermore, the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the bolts / iron blocks and the refractory bricks can generate additional stress during heating and cooling, further impacting the performance evaluation of the refractory bricks. Therefore, this invention proposes a thermal shock resistance testing device for refractory bricks. Utility Model Content

Furthermore, the difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the bolts and iron blocks and the refractory bricks may generate additional stress during heating and cooling, further affecting the performance evaluation of the refractory bricks.

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0029] The preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below.
[0030] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, the refractory brick thermal shock resistance testing device includes a heating box 1 and a cooling box 2. The cooling box 2 is located next to the heating box 1. The heating box 1 is used to heat the refractory brick, and the cooling box 2 is used to rapidly cool the heated refractory brick to simulate its thermal shock resistance performance under high temperature environment. The front and rear sides of the heating box 1 are provided with corresponding sliding grooves 101. Door curtains 102 are movably installed in the sliding grooves 101 on both sides. A temperature controller 103 is fixedly installed on the top of the heating box 1. The heating box 1 is provided with a driving mechanism 3 for driving the door curtains 102. Heating tubes 104 are laid on both sides inside the heating box 1, and a limiting guide rail 105 is provided at the bottom inside the heating box 1. A test brick box 4 is placed in the limiting guide rails 105 on both sides. A clamping mechanism 5 is provided inside the test brick box 4.
[0031] Furthermore, slide rails 401 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the brick box 4.
[0032] Furthermore, the drive mechanism 3 is provided in two sets, and is symmetrically arranged about the front and rear sides of the heating box 1. The drive mechanism 3 includes a first fixed seat 301, which is distributed vertically about the front side of the heating box 1. The upper and lower first fixed seats 301 are provided with a lead screw 302. The end of the lead screw 302 is connected to a driven gear 303. A dual-axis motor 307 is provided above the top of the heating box 1. The output end of the dual-axis motor 307 is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 305 through a second fixed seat 306 provided at the top of the heating box 1. The end of the connecting shaft 305 away from the dual-axis motor 307 is connected to a main gear 304 that meshes with the driven gear 303. A threaded sleeve 308 is threadedly connected to the outside of the lead screw 302. A connecting rod 309 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded sleeve 308, and the other end of the connecting rod 309 is fixedly connected to a fixing member 310 provided at the front side of the curtain panel 102.
[0033] Specifically, when the dual-axis motor 307 starts, its output end drives the connecting shaft 305 to rotate. Its two output ends drive the main gears 304 of the two sets of drive mechanisms 3 to rotate through the connecting shaft 305. The main gear 304 meshes with the driven gear 303, so the driven gear 303 also rotates, driving the lead screw 302 to rotate. Since the threaded sleeve 308 is threaded to the outside of the lead screw 302, when the lead screw 302 rotates, the threaded sleeve 308 will move linearly along the lead screw 302. The connecting rod 309 converts the movement of the threaded sleeve 308 into the sliding of the door curtain 102 in the sliding groove 101, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the door curtain 102 and improving the convenience and efficiency of the detection process.
[0034] Furthermore, a water pump 201 is fixedly installed at the top of the cooling box 2, and the output end of the water pump 201 is connected to a connecting pipe 202. An installation ring 203 is provided at the top inside the cooling box 2, and several spray pipes 204 are arranged around the bottom of the installation ring 203. The spray pipes 204 are connected to the connecting pipe 202. When it is necessary to cool the heated refractory bricks, the water pump 201 is started first. The water pump 201 starts to work, transports water from the outside, and delivers it to the spray pipes 204 through the connecting pipe 202. The cooling water flows in the spray pipes 204 and sprays out from the spray holes to form a uniform water curtain. These water curtains directly cover the surface of the refractory bricks and remove the heat of the refractory bricks through heat exchange.
[0035] In another embodiment provided by this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, two sets of clamping mechanisms 5 are correspondingly arranged inside the brick box 4. The clamping mechanism 5 includes a base plate 501 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the brick box 4. A support spring 509 is connected to the middle of the base plate 501. Support rods 502 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the base plate 501 about the support springs 509. The other ends of the support rods 502 on both sides are connected to support plates 503. A straight sliding hole 504 is opened on the side of the support plate 503. A pin 506 is movably installed in the straight sliding hole 504. A tension spring 510 is movably connected between the two pins 506. A concave slider 505 is slidably installed in the support plate 503. A rotating part 507 is movably connected to the concave slider 505 through the through pin 506. A connecting part 508 is fixedly and movably connected to the other end of the rotating part 507. The side of the connecting part 508 facing the base plate 501 is fixedly connected to the support spring 509.
[0036] Specifically, before the refractory brick is placed into the testing box, the clamping mechanism is in its initial state. At this time, the tension spring 510 is in an unstretched state, and the connecting piece 508 maintains a certain tension under the action of the supporting spring 509, but does not generate a clamping force on the refractory brick. The concave slider 505 and the rotating piece 507 are also in a relatively stationary position. When the refractory brick is placed into the testing brick box 4, it contacts the refractory plate 6, and the refractory plate 6 will be subjected to an inward pushing force. When the refractory plate 6 is subjected to the pushing force, the force is transmitted to the concave slider 505 through the connecting piece 508 and the rotating piece 507. After being subjected to the force, the concave slider 505 will move inward along the straight sliding hole 504, and at the same time drive the pin 506 to move. Since the pin 506 is connected to The tension spring 510 is stretched at both ends, so when the pin 506 moves, the tension spring 510 will be stretched. Under the thrust of the refractory plate 6, the connecting piece 508 will move along the direction of the supporting spring 509 to adjust its position. With the stretching of the tension spring 510 and the movement of the connecting piece 508, the refractory plate 6 will gradually move closer to the refractory brick and eventually clamp it. Since the design of the tension spring 510 and the connecting piece 508 has a certain degree of elasticity and adjustability, the clamping mechanism 5 can adapt to refractory bricks of different specifications and shapes. At the same time, this design can also reduce the impact of thermal stress on the refractory brick and the testing device, and improve the reliability of the test results.
[0037] Furthermore, the two connecting pieces 508 are connected to a refractory plate 6 that slides on the slide rail 401 on opposite sides. When the refractory plate 6 is pushed by the refractory brick, it moves with the assistance of the slide rail 401.
[0038] During use, as the refractory bricks are inserted, the refractory plate 6 experiences a pushing force from the refractory bricks until it makes close contact with them. During this process, the connector 508, through the interaction of the rotating component 507 and the concave slider 505, as well as the tension of the tension spring 510, jointly adjusts the position and clamping force of the refractory plate 6. When the refractory plate 6 is in close contact with the refractory bricks, it experiences a reaction force from the refractory bricks. This reaction force is transmitted through the connector 508 to the tension spring 510 and the support spring 509, forming a force balance system. This system ensures that the refractory board 6 maintains a clamping force on the refractory bricks during heating and cooling, preventing them from loosening due to thermal expansion or contraction. Then, the door curtain 102 of the heating chamber 1 is opened by the drive mechanism 3, and the refractory bricks are pushed into the test brick box 4, ensuring that they are located within the limit guide rails 105 on both sides. Then, the temperature controller 103 is turned on, the required heating temperature and time are set, and the heating tube 104 in the heating chamber 1 is started to begin the heating process. After the refractory bricks are heated, the door curtain 102 is pulled up by the drive mechanism 3 to pull the test brick box 4 out from the other door curtain 102, and then it is placed in the cooling chamber 2 for cooling. After the cooling process is completed, the tested refractory bricks are taken out, and the surface and internal structure of the refractory bricks are observed to check for defects such as cracks and deformation. Based on the test results, the thermal shock resistance of the refractory bricks is evaluated.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
