Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical equipment technology, and in particular to a baking and preheating device for a continuous casting machine. Background Technology

[0002] The capacity replacement project of the new area of ​​Beiying Steel Plant was completed and put into operation in 2023. The production line is equipped with two 8-strand billet continuous casting machines. Each casting machine includes equipment such as a rotary table, a crystallizer, and a straightening machine. Two tundish preheating stations are set on both sides of the pouring center line, with eight burners above them. Their function is to heat the tundish lining to 1100°C before pouring.

[0003] The online sprue baking device is a key facility of the tundish preheating station. Located below the tundish, its function is to preheat the immersion sprue and bake the sprue simultaneously with the tundish.

[0004] The original preliminary design for the baking method was an exhaust type, where a lower induced draft fan created negative pressure to extract the flame and high-temperature flue gas from the tundish to heat the submerged entry nozzle. During operation, insufficient negative pressure resulted in uneven temperature distribution, unsatisfactory nozzle heating, high energy consumption, low efficiency, and the inability to fully utilize its high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. This also led to high gas consumption, resource waste, and serious impacts on process quality and tundish replacement cycles. Therefore, this paper proposes a baking preheating device for continuous casting machines. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a baking and preheating device for a continuous casting machine. The heating direction of this device has been changed from unidirectional top heating to a bidirectional double-heating system, and the structure has been changed from a bottom-extraction type to a direct-injection type. The device is more compact, easier to operate, and allows for arbitrary adjustment of the nozzle spray position. This ensures uniform baking of the inner and outer walls of the tundish nozzle, while effectively removing impurities and gases from inside the nozzle. It also effectively reduces worker labor intensity, the risk of gas backflow, and equipment failure rates, ensuring production process performance and reducing daily maintenance costs. This provides an effective reference and solution for similar equipment failures and potential hazards, overcoming the shortcomings of existing technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0022] Example 1, referring to Figure 1-4 A baking and preheating device for a continuous casting machine includes a base plate 1, a column 11 installed on one side of the upper end of the base plate 1, a rotating frame connected to the upper end of the column 11, a burner 7 installed on the rotating frame, a direct injection baker 10 arranged below the burner 7, and a communicating pipe assembly connecting the burner 7 and the direct injection baker 10.

[0023] The piping assembly includes a gas straight pipe 6 located on one side of the burner 7. One end of the gas straight pipe 6 is connected to a first gas valve 17. A gas hose 8 is connected to the gas straight pipe 6 via a tee connector. One end of the gas hose 8 is connected to the direct injection oven 10.

[0024] The piping assembly also includes an air straight pipe 5 connected to the top of the burner 7. The first connection of the air straight pipe 5 is a first air valve 4.
