Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of recycled lead alloy production technology, and in particular relates to a lead alloy pot and its detachable burner. Background Technology

[0002] In the recycled lead smelting industry, waste lead-acid batteries are crushed and sorted to obtain lead paste and other components. Lead paste is generally smelted in an oxygen-enriched side-blown furnace. After smelting, the crude lead needs to be refined to control the content of impurities. Currently used lead pots and burners use natural gas to directly burn in the air for heating, resulting in a large amount of heat being emitted with the combustion exhaust gas, leading to low gas heat utilization. At the same time, the burner only continuously heats a certain part of the lead pot, relying on the stirring of molten lead for heat transfer, resulting in uneven heating and a short lifespan for the lead pot. Furthermore, heating with only one burner results in long heating times, affecting production efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a lead alloy pot and its burner to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a recycled lead alloy pot and its detachable burner.
