Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of heating furnace equipment, and in particular to a water cooling device for steel coils. Background Technology

[0002] After hot-rolled steel coils are produced from the hot rolling production line, they need to be cooled to a certain temperature before subsequent processes, such as pickling, can be carried out to complete the final steel product. The purpose of post-rolling cooling is to prevent the high temperature of the hot-rolled steel coils from adversely affecting the subsequent pickling production line equipment. Specifically, after the hot-rolled steel coils come off the hot rolling production line, they need to be cooled naturally to a temperature below 80°C to meet the requirements for subsequent pickling production line operation, which takes 2-5 days.

[0003] If the hot-rolled coil is held at high temperatures for too long, the quality of the iron oxide scale cannot be guaranteed, which will affect the pickling quality. Furthermore, an excessively long high-temperature holding time will cause the iron oxide scale to thicken too quickly, leading to excessive consumption of subsequent acid solutions and posing a serious environmental challenge. The high-temperature holding time of the steel coil is also affected by seasonal variations and differences in ventilation conditions in the hot-rolled coil storage area. In particular, during summer, surface defects such as coarse grains and mixed grains may occur, resulting in unstable surface quality of the hot-rolled coil. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a water cooling device for rapid and efficient cooling of steel coils.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a steel coil water cooling device is provided, including a rapid cooling tank and a wastewater treatment tank. The rapid cooling tank is provided with an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe, and the outlet pipe is connected to the wastewater treatment tank.

[0006] The rapid cooling tank is equipped with a water level sensor on its wall, and the water inlet pipe is equipped with an electrically controlled valve. The electrically controlled valve controls the water flow rate of the water inlet pipe according to the signal from the water level sensor.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This water-cooling device for steel coils is designed for high-temperature steel coils after they have come off the hot-rolling production line. After the high-temperature steel coil is placed in the rapid cooling tank, an electrically controlled valve on the inlet pipe controls the water flow rate based on a signal from a water level sensor. The inlet opens when the water level is below a set height. The outlet pipe drains water as needed, discharging cooling water containing impurities and at high temperatures, achieving stable water cooling. The outlet pipe lowers the water temperature in the rapid cooling tank and replenishes evaporated water. This water-cooling device for steel coils offers excellent cooling performance, reduces the operator's workload, and improves convenience. Attached Figure Description
