Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of support frame technology, and more specifically, to a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame. Background Technology

[0002] In the metal smelting process, smelting furnaces often need to be tilted, such as to pour molten metal or clean slag, so a tilting support frame is required. Current tilting support frames have a relatively simple structure: the support frame is hinged to the support base, and the furnace body is inserted into the support frame. During tilting, operators need to manually hold the furnace body to prevent it from falling off the support frame, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and poses safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame, which solves the technical problem in the related art that during the tilting process, the operator needs to manually hold the furnace body, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and poses safety hazards.

[0004] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame for connection to the furnace body, comprising:

[0005] Support base,

[0006] A support frame is provided for fitting around the furnace body. The support frame has support shafts on both sides, and the axial direction of the support shafts is perpendicular to the axial direction of the furnace body. The support frame is hinged to the support base via the support shafts.

[0007] A positioning element, which is used to be disposed on the outer wall of the furnace body and located inside the support frame;

[0008] A support member is disposed on the support shaft and located inside the support frame. After the support frame drives the furnace body to rotate around the support shaft, the support member contacts one side of the positioning member to support the positioning member and the furnace body.

[0009] For example, in a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame provided in at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the positioning element is annular and is fitted around the furnace body.

[0010] For example, in a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame provided in at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the support member is rotatably connected to the support shaft, and the rotating shaft is arranged radially along the furnace body.

[0011] For example, in at least one embodiment of this disclosure, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame further includes:

[0012] A support ring is provided on the furnace body and fitted around the furnace body. The support ring is provided at both ends of the furnace body.

[0013] The support wheel is rotatably disposed inside the support frame, and the axis of rotation is the same as the axis of the support ring. There are support wheels on both sides of the support ring, and the support ring abuts against the support wheel to drive the furnace body to rotate under the rotational force of the support wheel.

[0014] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame is provided, which further includes a rotary drive mechanism. The rotary drive mechanism is disposed on the support frame and is connected to the support wheel via a transmission.

[0015] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame is provided, wherein the metal smelting furnace tilting support frame further includes a first axial limiting member, the first axial limiting member is disposed on the support frame and located on the side of the support member away from the positioning member, and the side of the first axial limiting member away from the support member contacts the support ring.

[0016] For example, in a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame provided in at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the first axial limiting member is rotatably connected to the support frame, and the rotation axis is arranged radially along the furnace body.

[0017] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame is provided, wherein the metal smelting furnace tilting support frame further includes a second axial limiting member, the second axial limiting member is disposed on the support frame and located on the side of the positioning member away from the support member, and the side of the second axial limiting member away from the positioning member contacts the support ring.

[0018] For example, in a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame provided in at least one embodiment of this disclosure, the second axial limiting member is rotatably connected to the support frame, and the rotation axis is arranged radially along the furnace body.

[0019] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame is provided, which further includes a telescopic mechanism. The telescopic mechanism is inclined, one end of which is hinged to the support base, and the other end of which is hinged to the support frame. After the telescopic mechanism extends or retracts, it is used to drive the support frame to tilt around the support axis.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed are as follows: The support frame is hinged to the support base via support shafts on both sides, and the axial direction of the support shafts is perpendicular to the axial direction of the furnace body. This hinged connection provides a stable support and turning center for the furnace body. The positioning component is installed on the outer wall of the furnace body and located inside the support frame, while the support component is installed on the support shaft and located inside the support frame. Initially, the axial directions of the furnace body and the support shaft are both horizontal. When the furnace body needs to be turned, an external force is applied to the support frame, causing it to turn around the support shaft. The furnace body turns synchronously with the support frame, with one end of the furnace body near the positioning component turning upwards and the other end turning downwards. During the turning process, since the support component is in contact with the positioning component, the support component can support the entire furnace body by supporting the positioning component, preventing the furnace body from falling off the support frame during the turning process. Operators do not need to manually support the furnace body during the turning process, which can greatly reduce labor intensity and avoid the occurrence of the furnace body falling due to improper manual support, thus better protecting the personal safety of operators and improving the safety of the smelting furnace during the turning process.

[0031] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

[0032] To keep the drawings concise, each drawing only schematically shows the parts relevant to the disclosure; these do not represent the actual structure of the product. Furthermore, for ease of understanding, in some drawings, only one of components with the same structure or function is schematically shown, or only one is labeled. In this document, "one" not only means "only one," but can also mean "more than one," and "several" includes "two" and "more than two."

[0033] In this document, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components.

[0035] In the description of this embodiment, terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this disclosure.

[0036] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is used to connect to the furnace body 12. It includes a support base 1, a support frame 2, a positioning member 3, and a support member 4. The support frame 2 is used to fit around the furnace body 12. Both sides of the support frame 2 have support shafts 5. The axial direction of the support shafts 5 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the furnace body 12. The support frame 2 is hinged to the support base 1 by means of the support shafts 5. The positioning member 3 is used to be set on the outer wall of the furnace body 12 and is located inside the support frame 2. The support member 4 is set on the support shafts 5 and is located inside the support frame 2. After the support frame 2 drives the furnace body 12 to tilt around the support shafts 5, the support member 4 contacts one side of the positioning member 3 to support the positioning member 3 and the furnace body 12.

[0038] For example, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, taking the support shaft 5 as an example where the axis is horizontally arranged in the front-to-back direction and the support member 4 is located to the left of the positioning member 3, the support frame 2 has two support shafts 5, one at the front and one at the back. The support frame 2 is hinged to the support base 1 through the support shafts 5 on both the front and back sides. The axial direction of the support shaft 5 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the furnace body 12. This hinged connection provides a stable support and turning center for the furnace body 12. The positioning member 3 is installed on the outer wall of the furnace body 12 and located inside the support frame 2, while the support member 4 is installed on the support shaft 5 and located inside the support frame 2.

[0039] Initially, both the furnace body 12 and the support shaft 5 are horizontally aligned. When the furnace body 12 needs to be rotated, an external force is applied to the support frame 2, causing it to rotate around the support shaft 5. The furnace body 12 rotates synchronously with the support frame 2, with the end of the furnace body 12 closest to the positioning element 3 (i.e., the right end) rotating upwards and the other end (i.e., the left end) rotating downwards. During the rotation, because the support element 4 is in contact with the positioning element 3, the support element 4 can support the entire furnace body 12 by supporting the positioning element 3, preventing the furnace body 12 from falling off the support frame 2 during the rotation. Operators do not need to manually support the furnace body 12 during the rotation, which can greatly reduce labor intensity and avoid the furnace body 12 falling due to improper manual support, thus better ensuring the personal safety of operators and improving the safety of the smelting furnace during the rotation process.

[0040] In some examples, the positioning element 3 is ring-shaped and is fitted around the furnace body 12.

[0041] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the annular positioning component 3 is fitted around the furnace body 12, which can evenly transfer the weight of the furnace body 12 to the support component 4. When the furnace body 12 is flipped, the force is more even and the stability is better, which can avoid excessive local stress on the furnace body 12.

[0042] In some examples, the support 4 is rotatably connected to the support shaft 5, and the rotation shaft is arranged radially along the furnace body 12.

[0043] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, taking the axis of the support shaft 5 as being set along the front-to-back direction as an example, the rotation axis of the support member 4 is also set along the front-to-back direction. When the furnace body 12 is flipped, the support member 4 can adaptively adjust its angle with the rotation of the furnace body 12. This can reduce the friction and wear between the support member 4 and the positioning member 3 and extend the service life of the components.

[0044] In some examples, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame also includes a support ring 6 and a support wheel 7. The support ring 6 is used to be mounted on the furnace body 12 and fitted around the furnace body 12. There are support rings 6 at both ends of the furnace body 12. The support wheel 7 is rotatably mounted inside the support frame 2, and the axis of rotation is the same as the axis of the support ring 6. There are support wheels 7 on both sides of the support ring 6. The support ring 6 abuts against the support wheel 7 and is used to drive the furnace body 12 to rotate under the rotational force of the support wheel 7.

[0045] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, there are support rings 6 coaxially arranged at both ends of the furnace body 12. Support wheels 7 are located on the front and rear sides of the support rings 6, with their axes aligned horizontally. The support rings 6 rest between the front and rear support wheels 7. When the support wheels 7 rotate, friction transmits the rotational force to the support rings 6, thereby causing the furnace body 12 to rotate. When the furnace body 12 tilts, the support wheels 7 and support rings 6 work together to provide support points for the furnace body 12, enhancing its stability and reducing swaying and tilting.

[0046] In some examples, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame also includes a rotary drive mechanism 8, which is mounted on the support frame 2 and is connected to the support wheel 7 in a transmission manner.

[0047] For example, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, two rotary drive mechanisms 8 are provided at the left end of the support frame 2. Each rotary drive mechanism 8 is connected to a support wheel 7. The rotary drive mechanism 8 transmits power to the support wheel 7, driving the support wheel 7 to rotate, thereby driving the furnace body 12 to rotate. By controlling the rotary drive mechanism 8, the rotation speed and angle of the furnace body 12 can be precisely controlled, realizing automated operation. This can improve the convenience and accuracy of the rotation operation of the furnace body 12, reduce errors in manual operation, reduce labor intensity, and improve production efficiency.

[0048] In some examples, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame also includes a first axial limiting member 9, which is disposed on the support frame 2 and located on the side of the support member 4 away from the positioning member 3. The side of the first axial limiting member 9 away from the support member 4 is in contact with the support ring 6.

[0049] For example, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, taking the support member 4 located on the left side of the positioning member 3 as an example, the first axial limiting member 9 is located on the right side of the left end support ring 6 and contacts the left end support ring 6. The first axial limiting member 9 cooperates with the support member 4 to limit the axial displacement of the furnace body 12, prevent the furnace body 12 from moving axially, and improve stability, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the entire tilting support frame.

[0050] In some examples, the first axial limiting member 9 is rotatably connected to the support frame 2, and the rotation axis is arranged radially along the furnace body 12.

[0051] For example, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the axis of the first axial limiting member 9 is arranged radially along the furnace body 12, so that the first axial limiting member 9 can rotate with the furnace body 12 when the furnace body 12 rotates. This can reduce the friction and wear between the first axial limiting member 9 and the support ring 6, and extend the service life of the first axial limiting member 9 and the support ring 6.

[0052] In some examples, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame also includes a second axial limiting member 10, which is disposed on the support frame 2 and located on the side of the positioning member 3 away from the support member 4. The side of the second axial limiting member 10 away from the positioning member 3 contacts the support ring 6.

[0053] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second axial limiting member 10 is located on the left side of the right end support ring 6 and contacts the right end support ring 6. It can prevent the furnace body 12 from moving to the left. When the furnace body 12 flips and rotates, the second axial limiting member 10 cooperates with the support member 4. The double-sided limiting can more effectively prevent the furnace body from moving to the left and ensure the stability of the furnace body 12.

[0054] In some examples, the second axial limiting member 10 is rotatably connected to the support frame 2, and the rotation axis is arranged radially along the furnace body 12.

[0055] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the axis of the second axial limiting member 10 is arranged radially along the furnace body 12, so that the second axial limiting member 10 can rotate with the furnace body 12 when the furnace body 12 rotates. This can reduce the friction and wear between the second axial limiting member 10 and the support ring 6, and extend the service life of the second axial limiting member 10 and the support ring 6.

[0056] In some examples, a metal smelting furnace tilting support frame also includes a telescopic mechanism 11. The telescopic mechanism 11 is tilted, with one end of the telescopic mechanism 11 hinged to the support base 1 and the other end of the telescopic mechanism 11 hinged to the support frame 2. After the telescopic mechanism 11 extends and retracts, it is used to drive the support frame 2 to tilt around the support shaft 5.

[0057] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, taking an example where both telescopic mechanisms 11 are located on the right side of the support shaft 5, the lower end of the telescopic mechanism 11 is hinged to the support base 1, and the upper end of the telescopic mechanism 11 tilts to the left and is hinged to the support frame 2. When the telescopic mechanism 11 extends or retracts, its length change alters the relative positional relationship between the support frame 2 and the support base 1, causing the support frame 2 to rotate around the support shaft 5, which in turn drives the furnace body 12 to rotate. This mechanized operation is more precise and stable than manual rotation. The rotation angle of the furnace body 12 can be precisely controlled, improving the convenience and safety of production operations.

[0058] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
