Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a sponge titanium production device, and more particularly to a device for reducing sponge titanium to produce solid magnesium chloride. Background Technology

[0002] Magnesium reduction is the main method for industrial production of sponge titanium. During production, to ensure the reaction proceeds and the sponge titanium structure forms, the byproduct magnesium chloride needs to be discharged periodically and in measured quantities. In the production of sponge titanium using an inverted U-shaped reduction distillation furnace, a square iron hopper is typically placed inside a cold-end support frame to discharge magnesium chloride. After cooling, it is lifted out by an overhead crane. Because magnesium chloride and iron have different expansion coefficients, when the magnesium chloride cools to a certain degree, the overhead crane hooks the bottom ring of the hopper, allowing the solid magnesium chloride to be poured out. Currently, the reduction cycle is approximately once every 3-4 hours to discharge magnesium chloride. Taking eight reduction furnaces as an example, each round of weighing and turning the hopper occupies about one hour of overhead crane time, requiring 2-4 people. Since the magnesium chloride discharge times of different reduction furnaces are inconsistent, weighing and turning the hopper may be done in multiple time slots. The overhead crane also needs to lift other items, especially after the feeding process and during the ignition phase, which takes a long time. Multiple production schedules require the use of the overhead crane, resulting in long waiting times for operators in the workshop and slowing down the overall production progress. Currently, during the reduction process of sponge titanium production, there is still a problem that solid magnesium chloride can only be discharged in a single batch. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve the problem that solid magnesium chloride can only be discharged in a single batch during the reduction process of sponge titanium production.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A device for discharging solid magnesium chloride multiple times using a separator, which consists of two parts: a separator and a support frame;

[0006] The separator consists of two cross-shaped partitions on a support plate, with lugs at the intersection of the two partitions and W-shaped grooves at the ends of the partitions.

[0007] The support frame has four inverted W-shaped grooves on the inner wall of the cylinder, and a flange with three lifting lugs on the upper edge of the cylinder.

[0008] The W-shaped groove on the separator and the inverted W-shaped groove on the support frame cooperate with each other to assemble the separator and the support frame together.

[0009] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are:

[0010] This invention enables the continuous and multiple discharges of solid magnesium chloride during the reduction production of sponge titanium.

[0011] This invention reduces the number of overhead crane lifting operations and lowers the labor intensity for employees;

[0012] This invention has a simple structure and is easy to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the separator structure of this utility model.

[0014] In the diagram: 1-lifting lug, 2-partition, 3-support plate, 4-W-shaped groove.

[0015] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the support frame structure of this utility model.

[0016] In the diagram: 5-lifting lug, 6-cylinder body, 7-flange, 8-inverted W-shaped groove. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should not be construed that the scope of the subject matter of the present invention is limited to the following embodiments. Any modifications, substitutions and alterations made based on ordinary technical knowledge and conventional means in the art without departing from the above-described technical concept of the present invention are included within the scope of the present invention.

[0018] A device for discharging solid magnesium chloride multiple times using a separator, which consists of two parts: a separator and a support frame;

[0019] The separator consists of two partition plates 2 that are intersected in a "+" shape on a support plate 3, with a lug 1 at the intersection of the two partition plates 2, and a W-shaped groove 4 at the end of each partition plate 2.

[0020] The support frame has four inverted W-shaped grooves 8 on the inner wall of the cylinder 6, and a flange 7 is provided along the upper edge of the cylinder 6. The flange 7 is provided with three lifting lugs 5.

[0021] Before magnesium chloride is discharged during the reduction process of sponge titanium production, the W-shaped groove 4 on the separator and the inverted W-shaped groove 8 on the support frame are matched to make them work together as follows: Figure 1 The separator shown, and as Figure 2 After the support shown is assembled, it is hoisted into the cold end of the reduction furnace. The W-shaped groove 4 and the inverted W-shaped groove 8 in the support frame make the partition plate and the support frame fit better at the partition plate. The magnesium chloride is cooled and blocked in the "W" groove, so that the magnesium chloride is not easy to leak into the space of the connected partition plate, thus achieving the purpose of multiple discharges of solid magnesium chloride.
