Since the water storage pool uses circulating water as the cooling water source, a large amount of continuous casting billet scale impurities will be carried in the secondary reflux water. Over time, these impurities will gradually deposit at the bottom of the water storage pool, forming an impurity sludge layer. In order to maintain normal operation of the system, the water storage pool needs to be cleaned frequently by hand. If not cleaned in time, impurity sludge is very easy to cause blockage of the continuous casting cooling water supply pump pipeline and the nozzle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] To make the purpose, technical scheme and beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0024] As Figs. 1-3 shown, embodiment 1: the filtering device design for the steelmaking continuous casting cooling water system aims to optimize the recycling of cooling water, improve water resource utilization rate, and ensure the quality of cooling water. It includes a collecting water tank 7 located at the bottom of the continuous casting machine, which is used to collect the cooling water flowing down from the surface of the billet. These cooling waters not only take away a lot of heat when they come into contact with the billet, but also may carry slag and other impurities generated from the billet or the surrounding environment. The design of the collecting water tank 7 takes into account the need for efficient collection and preliminary filtration. The bottom of the collecting water tank 7 is provided with a sewer 8, which guides the used cooling water to a water storage tank 9. Between the sewer 8 and the water storage tank 9, a material receiving and overturning unit 11 is provided, which includes a material collecting hopper 1107 provided with a water leakage hole 1108 at the bottom, allowing cooling water to pass through while blocking larger particles of slag, so that the slag is trapped in the material collecting hopper 1107. Considering that the slag needs to be cleaned regularly to maintain the normal operation of the system, the side of the material collecting hopper 1107 away from the water storage tank 9 is provided with a slag pool 10. When the slag in the material collecting hopper accumulates to a certain amount, a rotating drive mechanism is used to tilt the material collecting hopper, thereby dumping the slag into the slag pool 10. This process realizes effective management and disposal of the slag, reduces the need for manual intervention, and improves the automation level of the system. Specifically, the material collecting hopper 1107 is rotated by a rotating drive mechanism to realize the dumping of the slag into the slag pool 10.

[0025] The embodiment 2, the aggregate hopper 1107 comprises a sliding material channel 11071 and a hopper body 11072 connected therewith, wherein the bottom of the hopper body 11072 is provided with a water leakage hole 1108, and the sliding material channel 11071 is driven to rotate by a rotating driving mechanism. The rotating driving mechanism comprises a mounting seat 1101, the top of the mounting seat 1101 is provided with a support 1102, a supporting arm 1106 is rotatably connected to the support 1102 through a rotating shaft 1103, and the supporting arm 1106 is connected to the free end of the sliding material channel 11071. A motor 1105 is also mounted on the top of the mounting seat 1101, the motor shaft of the motor 1105 is connected to the rotating shaft 1103 through a shaft coupling 1104, and the rotating shaft 1103 is driven to rotate. The rotating shaft 1103 is fixedly connected to the supporting arm 1106, and the rotating shaft 1103 can freely rotate relative to the support 1102. Specifically, when the slag in the aggregate hopper accumulates to a certain amount, the control system starts the motor 1105, and the motor transmits power to the rotating shaft 1103 through the shaft coupling 1104. With the rotation of the rotating shaft 1103, the supporting arm 1106 fixedly connected thereto rotates, thereby driving the sliding material channel 11071 to tilt or overturn. This process realizes the automatic dumping of the slag, so that the slag falls into the slag pool, and then the system returns to the original position, preparing for the next process of collecting slag.

[0026] The embodiment 3, the filtering device further comprises a water inlet pipe 6 connected to a water pump 5, the water pump 5 is used for pumping water from a water storage tank and supplying the water to the spray head 3 through a water outlet pipe, so as to realize the recycling use of the cooling water; the spray head 3 is installed above the continuous casting machine and is used for spraying cooling water to cool the billet.

[0027] The embodiment 4, the material receiving and overturning unit 11 further comprises a limiting rod 12, one end of the limiting rod 12 is fixed to the side wall of the mounting seat 1101, and the other end of the limiting rod 12 extends horizontally to above the water storage tank. When the aggregate hopper 1107 is driven to rotate by the rotating driving mechanism, with the rotation of the rotating shaft 1103 and the supporting arm 1106, the sliding material channel 11071 also tilts or overturns. At this time, if the aggregate hopper reaches the preset maximum dumping angle, the limiting rod 12 will contact the aggregate hopper, preventing further rotation. This ensures that the aggregate hopper will not be excessively overturned due to the continuous action of the motor 1105, protecting the mechanical structure of the whole system from damage. In addition, the presence of the limiting rod 12 also allows the operator to set the automatic dumping period with confidence, without worrying about accidents or damage caused by out-of-control equipment. This design greatly improves the operation safety and reliability of the material receiving and overturning unit 11, reduces the need for manual intervention, and enhances the overall automation level of the steelmaking and continuous casting cooling water system.

[0031] 3. The bottom of the collecting hopper is provided with a water leakage hole, which can filter the cooling backflow water flowing into the drain pipe, so that the iron oxide scale and slag in the water are filtered by the collecting hopper, the slag is left in the collecting hopper, and the slag-free water after filtration flows into the water storage tank through the water leakage hole.

[0032] 4. The water pump sucks water source from the water storage tank through the water inlet pipe, and then supplies water to the spray head through the water outlet pipe for billet cooling.
