Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curing technology for castables used in kilns, specifically a rapid curing device for castables used in kilns. Background Technology

[0002] Kiln castable is a high-performance monolithic refractory material mainly used for the lining construction and repair of high-temperature industrial kilns. It is composed of refractory aggregates such as bauxite, corundum, and mullite as a matrix, combined with binders such as aluminate cement and silica powder, and additives such as dispersants and accelerators. It is widely used in the transition zone of cement rotary kilns, permanent linings of steel ladles, and furnace roofs of heating furnaces, with a service life of 3-5 years, reducing joint heat loss by more than 15% compared to traditional refractory brick linings.

[0003] Refractories are typically poured into molds, where air is removed using a vibrator, and then left to cure. To accelerate curing, baking is often used. However, due to cost considerations, the baking rack containing the cured refractories mold is placed at the bottom of a baking oven, where firewood or coal is ignited for heating. But because the baking rack is high, the temperature decreases with distance from the heat source, resulting in different heating rates for refractories molds at different heights. The lower molds may overheat, causing the internal refractories to crack and affecting overall quality. Therefore, we propose a rapid curing device for refractories used in kilns. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a rapid curing device for castables for kilns.

The inner side of each air inlet is fixedly connected to a filter screen 6. The lower ends of both the front and rear sides of the curing chamber 2 are provided with air inlet slots 7. A connecting platform 8 is placed on the left side of the baking oven 1. The frame containing the mold for casting kiln refractory is pushed into the interior of the curing chamber 2 through the connecting platform 8. After the curing chamber 2 is full, coal is poured into the baking oven 1 and ignited. The coal combustion generates heat to heat the interior of the curing chamber 2, achieving rapid curing.

[0025] The airflow guiding mechanism 5 includes a first support 52, a first rotating shaft 53, a first fan blade 54, an air duct 55, a second support 56, a second fan blade 57, a second rotating shaft 58, and an airflow guiding assembly 59. The top wall of the curing chamber 2 is fixedly connected to evenly distributed air ducts 55. The upper ends of the air ducts 55 are fixedly connected to the lower surfaces of vertically adjacent air boxes 4. Each air duct 55 has a first support 52 fixedly connected to its upper end. A first rotating shaft 53 is rotatably connected to the middle of each first support 52. A first fan blade 54 is fixedly fitted onto the lower end of each first rotating shaft 53. Each air duct 55 has a second support 56 fixedly connected to its lower end. A second rotating shaft 58 is rotatably connected to the lower end of each second support 56. A second fan blade 57 is fixedly fitted onto the middle of each second rotating shaft 58. An airflow guiding assembly is provided at the lower end of each second rotating shaft 58. 59. The flow guiding mechanism 5 also includes a transmission assembly 51, which includes a bevel gear 511, a bevel gear 512, and a gearbox 513. The upper end of the bracket 52 is fixedly connected to the gearbox 513. The upper end of the rotating shaft 53 passes through a through hole in the bottom wall of the gearbox 513. The upper end of the rotating shaft 53 is fixedly fitted with the bevel gear 512. The upper end of the air duct 55 is rotatably connected to a drive shaft through a bearing seat. The left end of each drive shaft is fixedly fitted with a bevel gear 511. The bevel gear 511 meshes with the bevel gear 512 located in the same gearbox 513. The upper end of the curing chamber 2 is fixedly connected to evenly distributed motors 10. The output shafts of the motors 10 are fixedly connected to the adjacent drive shafts on the left side through couplings. The input terminal of motor 10 is electrically connected to the output terminal of control switch group 9. The flow guiding assembly 59 also includes a turntable 591, a central flow guide tube 592, and a side flow guide tube 593.

The lower surface of the turntable 591 is provided with a central flow guide tube 592 and a side flow guide tube 593. The central flow guide tube 592 and the side flow guide tube 593 are offset from the center of the turntable 591. The side flow guide tube 593 is inclined. By controlling switch group 9, each motor 10 is turned on. The output shaft of motor 10 drives the adjacent transmission shaft and bevel gear 511 to rotate, which in turn drives the meshing bevel gear 512 to rotate, realizing the rotation of the rotating shaft 53 and the fan blade 54. The fan blade 54 rotates, sending the air inside the air box 4 into the curing chamber 2 through the air duct 55. Hot air is discharged from the central guide tube 592 and the side guide tube 593, creating a negative pressure environment in the air box 4. Hot air at the bottom of the curing chamber 2 is drawn into the air inlet and enters the air box 4 through the return air duct 3. The filter screen 6 filters out dust.

The central guide tube 592 drives the hot air to rotate at the center of the curing chamber 2, and the side guide tube 593 brings the hot air into the sides of the curing chamber 2, making the hot air distribution more uniform.

[0026] It also includes a control switch group 9, which is located on the left side of the baking oven 1, and the input terminal of the control switch group 9 is electrically connected to an external power supply.

[0027] The working principle of the rapid curing device for kiln castable provided by this utility model is as follows: A frame containing a mold for casting kiln castable is pushed into the curing chamber 2 via a connecting platform 8. After the curing chamber 2 is full, coal is poured into the baking oven 1 and ignited. The combustion of the coal generates heat, which heats the interior of the curing chamber 2, achieving rapid curing. At the same time, the control switch group 9 turns on each motor 10. The output shaft of the motor 10 drives the adjacent transmission shaft and bevel gear 511 to rotate, which in turn drives the meshing bevel gear 512 to rotate, thereby rotating the rotating shaft 53 and the fan blade 54. The rotation of the fan blade 54 draws air from the air box 4 through the air duct 5. 5. Hot air is sent into curing chamber 2. Hot air is discharged from the central guide tube 592 and the side guide tube 593. The air box 4 forms a negative pressure environment. Hot air at the bottom of curing chamber 2 is drawn into the air inlet and enters the air box 4 through the return air duct 3. The filter screen 6 filters the smoke and dust. At the same time, external air is drawn in through the air inlet slot 7, which reduces the temperature at the bottom of curing chamber 2. The hot air flows downward, driving the fan blade 57 to rotate. The rotating shaft 58 and the turntable 591 rotate. The central guide tube 592 and the side guide tube 593 rotate. The central guide tube 592 drives the hot air to rotate at the center of curing chamber 2.
