Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of muck loaders, and in particular relates to a front arm device for a KR muck loader. Background Technology

[0002] As an important component of the molten iron pretreatment process, the slag remover plays an increasingly important role in the production of high-quality steel. Its main function is to remove slag from molten iron after desulfurization, dephosphorization, and desiphorization, as well as blast furnace slag, thereby improving the cleanliness of the molten iron and achieving a low-slag or slag-free state, thus improving the quality of the main raw materials for steelmaking in the converter steelmaking process.

[0003] However, due to improper operation by the operator, the slag removal forearm hits the inner wall of the molten iron ladle (the container holding molten iron) at high speed, which causes severe bending deformation or even breakage of the forearm, thereby increasing the maintenance frequency of the forearm. Secondly, since the top of the forearm is in contact with the high-temperature molten iron, the working environment is very harsh. Sometimes it is necessary to break the "hardened" slag on the top of the forearm, making the stress conditions of the forearm very demanding. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a forearm device for a KR muck loader. By dividing the forearm into a large arm and a small arm, and designing a connecting mechanism between the large arm and the small arm, the original integral connection at the forearm inflection point is replaced with a pin-shaft connection mechanism. The pins bear the impact load, which improves the strength and stability of the forearm, effectively solves the problem of easy deformation and breakage at the inflection point of the muck loader forearm, and has the feature of easy replacement, improving the mobility and flexibility of replacement.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a front arm device for a KR muck loader, including a boom, a forearm and a connecting mechanism;

[0007] The boom tail end is provided with a connecting flange, and a cylinder is fixed through the center of the connecting flange. The top of the boom front end is provided with a set of first pin edges, and V-shaped pin edges are fixed on both sides of the boom front end.

[0008] The forearm is located on the outer side of the front end of the upper arm and forms an obtuse angle with the upper arm. The forearm is parallel to the two V-shaped pin sides. The two tail ends of the forearm are fixed with second pin sides, and the two second pin sides are respectively flush with the two first pin sides.

[0009] The first pin has a first hole in the middle, the second pin has a second hole at the tail end, and the forearm tail end, the V-shaped pin front end, and the second pin front end have concentric third holes.

[0010] The connecting mechanism includes a first pin, a second pin, a third pin, and a set of connecting plates;

[0011] The connecting plate has a fourth hole at both ends, and the connecting plate is located inside the first pin side and the second pin side on the same side.

[0012] The first pin passes through the first hole on the two first pin shaft sides and the fourth hole at the tail end of the two connecting plates. The second pin passes through the second hole on the two second pin shaft sides and the fourth hole at the front end of the two connecting plates. The third pin passes through the third hole on the two V-shaped pin shaft sides, the two second pin shaft sides, and the forearm.

[0013] The forearm has a scraper mounting position parallel to the upper arm at its front end, and a scraper groove is fixed on the bottom surface of the scraper mounting position.

[0014] Furthermore, both the upper arm and the forearm are square tube structures, and ribs are provided along the length direction on all four sides of the upper arm and the forearm.

[0015] Furthermore, the cross-section of the scraper groove is an inverted U-shaped structure, and both sides of the scraper groove are provided with mounting openings that are misaligned with the forearm.

[0016] Furthermore, an upper clearance area is provided at the top of the front end of the upper arm, and the first pin shaft edge is located in the upper clearance area.

[0017] Furthermore, the ribs on both sides of the front end of the upper arm are provided with side clearance areas, and the tail end of the V-shaped pin is located in the side clearance area.

[0018] Furthermore, both sides of the forearm tail end are provided with a lower clearance area, and the front end of the V-shaped pin is located in the lower clearance area.

[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. This utility model divides the forearm into a large arm and a small arm, and the connection mechanism between the large arm and the small arm replaces the original integral connection at the forearm inflection point with a pin connection mechanism. The pin bears the impact load, which improves the strength and stability of the forearm and effectively solves the problem of easy deformation and breakage at the inflection point of the slag remover. It also has the feature of easy replacement, which improves the mobility and flexibility of replacement. While improving service life and slag removal efficiency, it reduces the amount of slag generated in the subsequent converter process.

[0021] 2. The design of the scraper groove in this utility model can be used for the installation and positioning of the scraper, and at the same time facilitates the partial replacement of the scraper, which makes operation convenient and reduces maintenance costs.

[0022] 3. By setting a protruding cylinder at the connecting flange, this utility model can reduce the shear stress on the flange, effectively solve the problem of easy bending and breakage at the flange of the slag remover, and improve the connection strength.

[0023] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
