Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of blast furnace ironmaking technology, and in particular relates to a charging device for blast furnace ironmaking. Background Technology

[0002] Blast furnace ironmaking is a crucial process in modern steel production, primarily extracting iron from iron ore through a reduction reaction. During blast furnace operation, raw materials (including iron ore, coke, and flux) are continuously charged into the furnace via a charging system to ensure stable production and efficient operation. As one of the key pieces of equipment in the blast furnace, the performance of the charging device directly affects the efficiency of raw material conveying, the uniformity of raw material distribution within the furnace, and the subsequent smelting results.

[0003] Currently, in blast furnace ironmaking, raw material transportation is mainly accomplished through automated charging systems. These systems are responsible for continuously loading sintered ore, pellets, coke, and other furnace materials into the blast furnace top according to a predetermined ratio. However, in actual production, it has been found that the physical properties of the raw materials, especially their particle size distribution, have a significant impact on the smelting process. When the raw materials are not sufficiently crushed and ground, a large number of oversized particles will exist. These excessively large particles reduce the specific surface area of ​​the furnace charge, thus decreasing the contact efficiency between the reducing gas and the solid furnace charge. The combined effect of these factors ultimately leads to incomplete reduction reactions within the blast furnace.

[0004] To address these issues, we provide a charging device for blast furnace ironmaking. Utility Model Content

[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the device will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the device. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the device, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the device, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the device. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 , the device is a feeding device for blast furnace ironmaking, which comprises a feed barrel 1 that can be fixed at the feed inlet of the blast furnace, and a plurality of through holes are formed through the bottom surface of the feed barrel 1. Only powders smaller than the diameter of the through holes can pass through the through holes and fall into the interior of the blast furnace.

[0031] Further, please refer to Figure 2 , an oval tooth ring 2 is coaxially fixed to the surface of the feed barrel 1; the oval tooth ring 2 is provided in an oval appearance, and compared with the conventional circular tooth ring, the distance from the axis of the sawtooth at different positions of the side wall of the oval tooth ring 2 is different, and when the part moves along the circumferential surface of the oval tooth ring 2, the position of the part from the axis of the oval tooth ring 2 is dynamically changed.

[0032] Further, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , an arc-shaped track 3 is symmetrically formed through the surface of the feed barrel 1; the arc-shaped track 3 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the oval tooth ring 2, and a single arc-shaped track 3 takes the minor axis of the oval tooth ring 2 as the axis of symmetry, and the two arc-shaped tracks 3 take the major axis of the oval tooth ring 2 as the axis of symmetry, so that the distance between the two ends of the two arc-shaped tracks 3 is the smallest, and the distance at the middle position is the largest. The arc-shaped track 3 is arranged in parallel to the oval tooth ring 2, so that the distance from the arc-shaped track 3 to the side wall of the oval tooth ring 2 remains unchanged.

[0033] Further, please refer to Figure 1、 Figure 2 Two rotating shafts 4 are respectively slidably arranged in the inner wall of the arc-shaped track 3, and the sliding paths of the two rotating shafts 4 are symmetrical. When the two rotating shafts 4 respectively slide to the same end of the corresponding arc-shaped track 3, the distance between the two rotating shafts 4 is the shortest. When the two rotating shafts 4 jointly slide to the other end of the arc-shaped track 3, the distance between the two rotating shafts 4 first becomes farther and farther and then becomes closer and closer, and the distance between the two rotating shafts 4 is the largest when the two rotating shafts 4 are located at the middle positions of the corresponding arc-shaped tracks 3.

[0034] The gear 5 is coaxially fixed on the side surface of the rotating shaft 4 and is in meshing cooperation with the elliptical tooth ring 2. When the rotating shaft 4 moves, the gear 5 moves correspondingly. Since the gear 5 is in meshing cooperation with the elliptical tooth ring 2, the gear 5 will move along the side surface of the elliptical tooth ring 2 and rotate at the same time. The distance between the two gears 5 changes in the same way as the rotating shaft 4.

[0035] The crushing roller 6 is fixed at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 4 and located in the inner cavity of the feeding barrel 1. When the rotating shaft 4 moves and rotates, the crushing roller 6 moves and rotates at the same time. When the two crushing rollers 6 approach each other, the crushing rollers 6 will generate extrusion force on the raw materials in the feeding barrel 1, thereby facilitating the crushing of raw materials with large volume. The distance between the two crushing rollers 6 changes dynamically, so that raw materials with different volumes can be crushed.

[0036] When crushing raw materials with large volume, the raw materials are first located between the two crushing rollers 6. As the distance between the two crushing rollers 6 becomes smaller and smaller, the crushing roller 6 first extrudes the raw materials, and then rotates and grinds the raw materials. This prevents the crushing roller 6 from being damaged too much when directly rotating and grinding the raw materials, thereby affecting the service life of the crushing roller 6.

[0037] At the same time, the rotating shaft 4 slides back and forth in the inner wall of the arc-shaped track 3, thereby driving the crushing roller 6 to slide back and forth, thereby changing the rotating direction of the crushing roller 6, preventing the crushing roller 6 from being continuously damaged in the same direction.

[0038] Moreover, the distance between the two crushing rollers 6 changes dynamically, so that the extrusion force of the crushing roller 6 can be dynamically changed compared to the crushing roller 6 with fixed distance.

[0039] Further, please refer to Figure 1The distance between the two arc-shaped tracks 3 at the middle position is 1.5-2 times the distance between the ends; when the rotating shaft 4 is located at the end of the arc-shaped track 3, the distance between the two crushing rollers 6 is the smallest, and only powder raw materials are allowed to pass; when the rotating shaft 4 is located at the middle position of the arc-shaped track 3, the distance between the two crushing rollers 6 is the largest, and large-volume block raw materials are allowed to pass and are crushed by extrusion. The distance between the two ends and the middle position of the arc-shaped track 3 is limited so that when the crushing rollers 6 are located at the end of the arc-shaped track 3, they just fit without generating extrusion force, and when the crushing rollers 6 are located at the middle position of the arc-shaped track 3, the distance between them is not too large, and a too large distance may not generate extrusion force on most or even all of the raw materials, causing the crushing rollers 6 to generate useless work and thus reducing the crushing efficiency.

[0040] Further, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the circumferential side of the crushing roller 6 is uniformly fixed with a plurality of protrusions 7 in a circumferential array. The distance between the two adjacent protrusions 7 in the circumferential direction of the crushing roller 6 is greater than the width of a single protrusion 7. By increasing the protrusions 7, the outer surface of the crushing roller 6 is uneven, and the crushing force is improved.

[0041] As shown in Figure 4 , when the two rotating shafts 4 are located at the middle position of the arc-shaped track 3, the distance between the two crushing rollers 6 is the largest, and the crushing rollers 6 and the protrusions 7 thereon do not contact. As the rotating shafts 4 slowly move towards the end of the arc-shaped track 3, the distance between the two rotating shafts 4 becomes smaller, and thus the distance between the two crushing rollers 6 becomes smaller. Finally, the two crushing rollers 6 fit, and the protrusion 7 on one of the crushing rollers 6 is inserted between the two protrusions 7 on the other crushing roller 6, i.e., as shown in Figure 5 , the largest extrusion force is generated on the raw materials.

[0042] Further, as shown in Figure 3 , the top end of the crushing roller 6 is provided with an inclined downward chamfer, and the surface of the feeding barrel 1 is provided with a feeding pipe. The raw materials are transported into the feeding barrel 1 through the feeding pipe. The top end of the crushing roller 6 is chamfered to be inclined downward, which is beneficial to the falling of the raw materials and prevents the raw materials from falling on the top end of the crushing roller 6, affecting the crushing efficiency.

[0043] Further, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the surface of the feeding barrel 1 is slidingly provided with a sliding frame 8 along the long axis direction of the oval tooth ring 2. The top end of the rotating shaft 4 is slidingly arranged on the inner wall of the sliding frame 8. The surface of the feeding barrel 1 is fixed with an electric telescopic rod, and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected with the sliding frame 8. The sliding frame 8 is moved by the electric telescopic rod, and thus the rotating shaft 4 is slidingly moved in the inner wall of the arc-shaped track 3, and thus the gear 5 and the crushing roller 6 are moved, improving the automation efficiency.
