Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refractory castable structure and construction technology for furnaces and kilns, and more specifically to a hanging structure for the flat top of a heating furnace and the field of flat top technology for heating furnaces. Background Technology
[0002] Industrial heating furnaces generally operate at temperatures above 1200℃. While some refractory linings use high-temperature fibers, heavy refractory bricks or heavy monolithic refractory castables are the primary materials used. Due to the superior properties of refractory castables, they have largely replaced refractory bricks.
[0003] When the furnace width (span) of a typical heating furnace is less than 3.0 meters, an arched roof structure is mainly used for the furnace top, which offers good stability. However, when the furnace width (span) is ≥ 3.0 meters, the weight of the arch itself, combined with thermal expansion stress, results in a significant thrust from the arch to the arch corners. This places very high demands on the steel structural components of the outer shell. If the arch corners are not secure, the arch is prone to sinking and collapsing. Furthermore, the chord height (sag) of the arch is relatively high at this point, making it difficult to meet the furnace space requirements. Therefore, a flat furnace roof structure made of refractory castable is generally used, with the top anchored using refractory materials. The anchor bricks are embedded in the castable refractory for suspension. The anchor bricks are characterized by high temperature resistance and high strength, but they are not resistant to bending and are prone to brittle fracture. Due to the thermal expansion of the castable refractory, its position will move with the temperature change. The movement of the castable refractory will cause the anchor bricks to move. Therefore, the anchor bricks and suspension system must be movable structures. If the suspension structure is unreasonable or the construction method is inappropriate, the anchor bricks are prone to uneven stress or shear stress, which will lead to the anchor bricks breaking. If a large number of them break, it will lead to the collapse of the entire furnace roof. This often happens in the industry.
[0004] After years of research and application of open-hearth furnace roof structures, the industry has developed a variety of structural forms and construction methods. However, there are often cases of failure. The reasons for this include unreasonable structural design, incorrect construction methods, and the complexity of construction that prevents proper process control. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the technical problem that the existing flat furnace roof structure is prone to uneven stress or shear stress on the anchor bricks due to unreasonable hanging structure or improper construction method, which leads to the breakage of the anchor bricks. When a large number of anchor bricks break, it will lead to the overall collapse of the furnace roof. This utility model provides a hanging structure for the flat furnace roof of a heating furnace and a flat furnace roof for heating furnaces.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] The first aspect of this utility model provides a hanging structure for the flat top of a heating furnace, including a top template, side templates arranged around the top template, a plurality of anchor bricks detachably arranged on the top template, and a top hanging assembly connected to the top of all the anchor bricks. The top hanging assembly is hung on a steel beam assembly, and each anchor brick is vertically arranged on the top template and is tensioned between the hanging assembly and the top template.
[0008] Specifically, the anchor brick has a hole at the top as a hanging hole and a hole at the bottom as an installation and fixing hole. The anchor brick structure is fully movable and fully adapts to the thermal expansion stress of the castable in all directions, so that all anchor bricks are stressed evenly. It can be tightened again before and during use to ensure that each anchor brick is stressed evenly.
[0009] In one embodiment, multiple anchoring bricks are detachably arranged in a rectangular array at the bottom of the top template.
[0010] In one embodiment, the system also includes horizontal tie rods connected to the top of all anchor bricks in each row, and the suspension assembly includes multiple horizontally arranged horizontally on the steel beam assembly, with the bottom of each horizontally arranged horizontally connected to the corresponding horizontal tie rod.
[0011] In one embodiment, the transverse hanging unit includes a double-channel steel beam horizontally arranged between two steel beams and a plurality of threaded rod hooks horizontally and equally spaced on the double-channel steel beam. The top of each threaded rod hook is fixed to the double-channel steel beam by a locking assembly, and the bottom of each threaded rod hook is a bent hook, which is used to hang the corresponding horizontal tie rod.
[0012] In one embodiment, the double-channel steel beam is provided with multiple gaps that cooperate with multiple screw hooks, and each screw hook is provided with an external thread at its top.
[0013] Specifically, the double channel steel beam consists of two channel steels arranged in opposite directions, with no gap between the two channel steels and a gap between the two channel steels, through which the screw rod hook passes.
[0014] In one embodiment, the top of each lead screw hook passes through the corresponding gap and is locked by a locking assembly, which includes a square washer, a spring, and a nut sequentially fitted onto the external thread of the top of the corresponding lead screw hook from bottom to top.
[0015] Specifically, the upper part of the lead screw is secured with a spring as a buffer.
[0016] In one embodiment, each anchoring brick is provided with a horizontal locking hole at its bottom, and each anchoring brick is locked to the top template by a locking wire passing through the horizontal locking hole.
[0017] In one embodiment, each anchoring brick is made of high-alumina refractory material.
[0018] In one embodiment, the length of each anchoring brick is 200mm-700mm;
[0019] Each anchoring brick has a hanging hole with a diameter of 10mm-30mm at the top;
[0020] Each anchoring brick has an installation hole with a diameter of 2mm-30mm at its bottom;
[0021] Each mounting hole is fixed to the bottom template with locking wire, the diameter of which is 1mm-4mm.
[0022] The diameter of each horizontal tie rod is 10mm-30mm.
[0023] Each screw rod hook has an external thread at the top and a U-shaped hook at the bottom. The total length of each screw rod hook is 100mm-800mm, and the diameter of each screw rod hook is 6mm-30mm.
[0024] Each double-channel steel beam is a channel steel of type 5#-20#, connected in opposite directions, with a spacing of 10mm-50mm between adjacent double-channel steel beams, and a total length of 200mm-2000mm for each double-channel steel beam.
[0025] The square washer has a length and width of 30mm×30mm-60mm×60mm, a thickness of 1mm-12mm, a wire diameter of 1mm-4mm, an inner diameter of 10mm-40mm, and a height of 10mm-50mm.
[0026] The second aspect of this utility model provides a flat furnace roof for a heating furnace, including the above-mentioned hanging structure for a flat furnace roof for a heating furnace, and further including a refractory castable layer, a fiber blanket layer, and a lightweight castable layer sequentially cast on the top template, wherein the height of the lightweight castable layer is lower than the height of the horizontal tie rod.
[0027] The third aspect of this utility model provides a construction method for a flat furnace roof of a heating furnace, used for installing the aforementioned flat furnace roof, employing the aforementioned hanging structure for the flat furnace roof of a heating furnace, including the following steps:
[0028] S1. Installation process of the hanging structure: Install the steel beam assembly that serves as the furnace top bracing steel. Place multiple double-channel steel beams at equal intervals on the lower flange of the steel beam assembly. Horizontal tie rods are evenly connected to the hanging holes of multiple anchor bricks in the same row. The lower end of the threaded rod hook is hooked to the horizontal tie rod, and the upper end of the threaded rod hook is threaded through the double-channel steel beam. The upper part is tightened with square washers, springs and nuts to suspend the anchor bricks in the air. The lower part of each anchor brick is fixed to the bottom template with locking steel wire through the installation fixing holes.
[0029] S2: Casting process: Construct the refractory castable layer, fiber blanket layer, and lightweight castable layer. Before demolding, tighten the nuts once and use the reaction force of the spring to make the anchor bricks bear the force evenly. Then demold.
[0030] Specifically, because the castable contains moisture, it needs to be baked. After the furnace is baked, it is tightened again to eliminate the thermal stress of the castable and make the anchor bricks bear the force evenly again. During use, such as in a forging furnace, if the loading and unloading machine collides with the furnace top and causes the furnace top to deform and become misaligned, some anchor bricks may not bear the force or may bear the force unevenly. The nuts can be tightened again to make the anchor bricks bear the force evenly. This method is simple to construct, highly operable, and has less impact from human factors. Problems that occur after construction, after furnace baking, and during use can be solved by tightening multiple times to make the anchor bricks bear the force evenly again, preventing individual anchor bricks from breaking due to overload.
[0031] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0032] 1. This utility model has a reasonable design. The upper part of the anchor brick is made into a hanging hole, and the lower part is made into a fixing hole. The anchor brick structure is a fully movable form, which is fully adaptive to the thermal expansion stress of the castable in all directions, so that all anchor bricks are subjected to uniform force. Before use and during use, it can be tightened again to ensure that each anchor brick is subjected to uniform force.
[0033] 2. During use, such as in a forging furnace, if the loading and unloading machine collides with the furnace top, causing misalignment and deformation of the furnace top, some anchor bricks may become unloaded or unevenly stressed. The nuts can be tightened again to ensure even stress distribution on the anchor bricks. This method is simple to implement, highly operable, and less affected by human factors. Problems arising after construction, after furnace drying, and during use can be addressed by repeated tightening to ensure even stress distribution on the anchor bricks again, preventing individual anchor bricks from breaking due to overload.
