TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of steel smelting technology, especially relates to a blast furnace molten iron desilication device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the steelmaking process, silicon in molten iron has both importance and two-sidedness. On the one hand, it is an indispensable key element for steelmaking and an important slag forming element. On the other hand, if the mass fraction of silicon in molten iron is too high, a series of problems will be caused. When the silicon content is high, a large amount of SiO2 will be generated in the steelmaking process. In order to achieve the required alkalinity for effective dephosphorization, a large amount of lime must be added. This not only leads to an increase in steelmaking slag quantity, an increase in alkaline slag forming agent unit consumption, and an acceleration of the erosion of furnace lining materials, but also causes an increase in the shrinkage rate of iron, thereby reducing the yield of steel. In addition, when the silicon content of molten iron reaches ≥0.60%, the control difficulty of the steelmaking process will be significantly increased, and splashing phenomenon is likely to occur, which also increases the consumption of slag and steel materials, increases oxygen consumption, prolongs the smelting cycle, and ultimately significantly increases the cost of steelmaking.

The molten iron trough is divided into molten iron trough section A 1 for receiving molten iron flowing from the blast furnace and molten iron trough section B 4 connected to molten iron trough section A 1, which serves as the desilication section. A height difference H is provided between the molten iron inlet 401 and the molten iron outlet 403 of molten iron trough section B 4 to control the flow rate of the molten iron. The height difference H between the molten iron inlet 401 and the outlet 403 of molten iron trough section B 4 can precisely control the flow rate of the molten iron. This design optimizes the residence time of molten iron in the desilication section, ensuring that the desilication agent and the molten iron have sufficient time to react chemically, thereby improving the desilication efficiency.
[0029] The desilication device includes a desilication agent unit 2 located above the desilication section and a stirring unit 3 disposed within the desilication section. The desilication agent unit 2 sprays the desilication agent into the flowing molten iron, ensuring uniform distribution of the desilication agent throughout the molten iron flow. The stirring unit 3 mixes the molten iron and the desilication agent; it includes at least one pair of stirring heads capable of spinning and reciprocating relative to the direction of the molten iron channel. This stirring method not only increases the contact area between the molten iron and the desilication agent but also helps break up any uneven areas that may form, resulting in a more uniform and thorough desilication process.
[0030] In other words, the blast furnace hot metal desiliconization device includes a section B of hot metal trough for desiliconization. The inlet and outlet of section B have a height difference to ensure the flow rate of the hot metal. Furthermore, a stirring zone is located in the middle of section B to fully agitate the hot metal containing the desiliconizing agent, thus achieving complete desiliconization of the hot metal.
[0031] Preferably, the desiliconizing agent unit 2 includes a desiliconizing agent tank 201 for storing the desiliconizing agent, and the desiliconizing agent tank 201 is fixed above the desiliconizing section by a frame.

In addition, this structure can effectively reduce vibration and noise.
[0033] A stirring motor 305 is installed on the top of the gear box 303 to provide power, and the gear box 303 is internally provided with gear one 313 and gear two 314 which are in mesh with each other, for transmitting power to the stirring heads. When the gear one 313 rotates, the gear two 314 is driven to rotate through the contact force between the gears.
[0034] The stirring heads include two: stirring head one 310 and stirring head two 311. The stirring motor 305 is connected with a transmission shaft one 312 through a shaft coupling 315, the gear one 313 is sleeved on the transmission shaft one 312, and one end of the transmission shaft one 312 extending out of the gear box 303 is connected with the stirring head two 311; the gear two 314 is sleeved on a transmission shaft two, and one end of the transmission shaft two extending out of the gear box 303 is installed with the stirring head one 310. The stirring motor 305 is used to drive the transmission shaft one 312 to rotate, and the transmission shaft two is driven to rotate through gear meshing. The stirring heads are connected with the corresponding transmission shafts through respective pins 316, and can self-rotate under the driving of the gear box 303. This connection mode not only ensures that the stirring heads can rotate synchronously with the transmission shafts, but also facilitates disassembly and replacement, thereby increasing the convenience of equipment maintenance.
[0035] Preferably, the stirring unit 3 further comprises a swing driving mechanism for driving the stirring heads to swing back and forth, which comprises a chain wheel one 306 installed outside the swing shaft 302 and a chain wheel two 317 installed outside the motor shaft of a swing motor 308, and the chain wheel one 306 and the chain wheel two 317 are transmissionally connected through a chain 307; the swing motor 308 is fixed on the upright column 301 through a U-shaped bracket 309. The swing motor 308 rotates, and swing power is transmitted through the chain 307 to make the stirring heads swing along the direction of the runner. The gear box 303 is provided with a gear box cover 304 for protecting the internal transmission structure. Specifically, the swing motor 308 is connected with the chain wheel one 306 installed on the swing shaft 302 through the chain wheel two 317 on the motor shaft thereof and the chain 307. When the swing motor 308 rotates, power is transmitted to the chain wheel one 306 through the chain 307, thereby driving the swing shaft 302 to rotate.
