Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel cord production technology, and more specifically to an oxide scale cleaning device for steel cord electroplating heating furnace. Background Technology
[0002] During the production of steel cord, when the electroplating furnace operates at high temperatures, oxide scale forms on the surface of the steel wire due to oxidation. This scale accumulates inside the furnace and needs to be cleaned regularly to avoid affecting the furnace's heat transfer efficiency and the quality of the processed steel wire. Traditional cleaning methods often rely on manual operation, using tools to directly scrape the scale out of the furnace. However, this method has significant drawbacks: high-temperature oxide scale scattered around the furnace opening can easily clog critical equipment (such as burners and gas pipeline interfaces), and may even pose safety hazards due to the high-temperature material coming into contact with flammable gas pipelines. Furthermore, the indiscriminate scattering of oxide scale pollutes the working environment and increases subsequent cleaning costs.
[0003] In existing technologies, oxide scale collection devices are mostly fixed structures, occupying working space for extended periods after installation and making it difficult to adapt to the flexible needs of different cleaning cycles. Furthermore, these devices often lack targeted design, failing to effectively guide the concentrated discharge of oxide scale, resulting in low collection efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a solution that can efficiently and centrally collect high-temperature oxide scale, and can be flexibly disassembled and adapted to different working conditions, in order to improve safety, reduce environmental hazards, and optimize the utilization of production space. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the cleaning of heating furnaces in the prior art, this utility model proposes an oxide scale cleaning device for steel cord electroplating heating furnaces, including a first collection tank and a second collection tank. The first end of the first collection tank is located on the outside of the furnace opening, and the second collection tank is detachably connected to the second end of the second collection tank.
[0006] The first collection tank includes a bottom plate and two side plates. The bottom of the bottom plate has a first support rod at the first end and a second support rod at the second end. The length of the first support rod is greater than the length of the second support rod, so that the first end of the bottom plate is higher than the second end, and the oxide scale falling from the furnace opening to the bottom plate can slide down to the top of the second collection tank.
[0007] The second collecting tank has an upward opening and a discharge port at the bottom;
[0008] The second support rod is provided with a first connector, and the side wall of the second collection trough is provided with a second connector. The first connector and the second connector are detachably connected.
[0009] Preferably, the distance between the two side plates is less than the distance between the two vertical reinforcing ribs on the outer side of the furnace opening.
[0010] Preferably, the first end of the side plate is provided with a slot, and the width of the slot matches the thickness of the transverse reinforcing rib below the furnace opening.
[0011] Preferably, the distance between the slot and the upper edge of the side plate is greater than the distance between the bottom of the furnace opening and the transverse reinforcing rib.
[0012] Preferably, the upper edge of the side plate is provided with a handle, and the handles on the two side plates are positioned correspondingly.
[0013] Preferably, a support rod is provided between the two side plates.
[0014] Preferably, the first support rod includes a telescopic rod.
[0015] Preferably, the first connector has an upward slot, and the second connector is configured as a hook structure, so that the second connector can be hooked in the slot of the first connector.
[0016] Preferably, when the second collection trough is connected to the first connector via the second connector, the upper edge of the second collection trough abuts against the lower edge of the base plate.
[0017] Preferably, the second collecting trough is configured to have an inner cavity wall with an inner diameter that gradually decreases from the top opening toward the discharge port.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0019] This application, through the combination of a first collection tank and a second collection tank, can collect the oxide scale falling from the furnace opening to the target area, thus avoiding oxide scale contamination of the facilities and site around the furnace opening. The first and second collection tanks are highly flexible; during non-cleaning periods, they can be independently disassembled and placed in suitable locations without occupying space. During cleaning periods, the first collection tank can be placed close to the outside of the furnace opening to catch the oxide scale, and the second collection tank is assembled to the lower end of the first collection tank to collect the falling oxide scale, thereby protecting natural gas equipment, improving safety, and reducing environmental pollution.

[0027] To better understand the technical content of this utility model, specific embodiments are provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, since natural gas pipelines, test burners, connecting flanges, natural gas safety valves and other structures are arranged on the outside of the furnace opening 100, there is a safety hazard if hot oxide scale falls onto these components. Therefore, it is necessary to install a special oxide scale collection device at the furnace opening 100.
[0029] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model proposes an oxide scale cleaning device for a steel cord electroplating heating furnace, including a first collection tank 10 and a second collection tank 20. The first end of the first collection tank 10 is located on the outside of the furnace opening 100, and the second collection tank 20 is detachably connected to the second end of the second collection tank 20.
[0030] The first collection tank 10 and the second collection tank 20 are two independent structures that can be assembled and used together. The first collection tank 10 is responsible for extending below the furnace opening 100 to collect the falling oxide scale, while the second collection tank 20 is responsible for collecting the oxide scale collected by the first collection tank 10 to a specific location.
[0031] Combination Figure 4As shown, the first collection trough 10 includes a base plate 11 and two side plates 12. A first support rod 14 is provided at the first end of the bottom of the base plate 11, and a second support rod 13 is provided at the second end. The length of the first support rod 14 is greater than the length of the second support rod 13, so that the first end of the base plate 11 is higher than the second end. As mentioned above, the second collection trough 20 is assembled to the second end of the base plate 11, i.e., the lower position. The first end of the base plate 11 forms a material drop end 15, and the second end forms a material discharge end 16.
[0032] Thus, combined Figure 6 As shown, when the oxide scale falls from the furnace opening 100 to the bottom plate 11, it can slide from the first end of the bottom plate 11 to the second end by gravity and reach above the second collection tank 20.
[0033] Furthermore, the second collection tank 20 has an upward opening and a discharge port 22 at the bottom.
[0034] In this way, the oxide scale that slides down from the second end of the base plate 11 falls into the upper opening of the second collection tank 20 and gradually slides down to the discharge port 22. The discharge port 22 concentrates all the discharged oxide scale into a specific area, which can prevent the oxide scale from falling into an undesirable position.
[0035] In an optional embodiment, the second collecting tank 20 is configured with an inner wall whose inner diameter gradually decreases from the top opening towards the discharge port 22. This facilitates the concentration of all oxide scale at the discharge port 22.
[0036] Optionally, a collection container can be placed at the bottom of the discharge port 22 for centralized collection of oxide scale.
[0037] Furthermore, in combination Figure 5 As shown, in order to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the first collection tank 10 and the second collection tank 20, the second support rod 13 is provided with a first connector 131, and the side wall of the second collection tank 20 is provided with a second connector 21. The first connector 131 and the second connector 21 are detachably connected.
[0038] Thus, through this detachable connection method, the first collection tank 10 and the second collection tank 20 can be arranged in a disassembled state at the work site when not in operation, reducing space occupation. When it is necessary to clean the oxide scale inside the furnace, the first collection tank 10 is placed in a suitable position, and then the second collection tank 20 is assembled to the end of the first collection tank 10.
[0039] Specifically, in combination Figure 5 As shown, the first connector 131 has an upward slot, and the second connector 21 is configured as a hook structure, so that the second connector 21 can be hung in the slot of the first connector 131.
[0040] Furthermore, when the second collection tank 20 is connected to the first connector 131 via the second connector 21, the upper edge of the second collection tank 20 abuts against the lower edge of the base plate 11.
[0041] Thus, after the second collection tank 20 is connected to the end of the first collection tank 10, it is in a relatively stable state.
[0042] Optionally, the distance between the two side plates 12 is less than the distance between the two vertical reinforcing ribs 101 on the outer side of the furnace opening 100. This facilitates the alignment of the first collection trough 10 with the outer side of the furnace opening 100.
[0043] Furthermore, the first end of the side plate 12 is provided with a slot 122, the width of which matches the thickness of the transverse reinforcing rib 102 below the furnace opening 100.
[0044] Thus, when the first collection trough 10 is aligned with the panel of the furnace opening 100, the transverse reinforcing rib 102 can be inserted into the slot 122, so that the upper edge of the base plate 11 is completely attached to the panel below the furnace opening 100, thus providing better support.
[0045] Furthermore, the distance between the slot 122 and the upper edge of the side plate 12 is greater than the distance between the bottom of the furnace opening 100 and the transverse reinforcing rib 102.
[0046] Thus, the upper edge of the side plate 12 is higher than the lower edge of the furnace opening 100, allowing the oxide scale leaking from the furnace opening 100 to enter the inner side of the two side plates 12 and be received by the bottom plate 11.
[0047] Preferably, a handle 121 is provided on the upper edge of the side plate 12, and the handles 121 on the two side plates 12 are in corresponding positions.
[0048] In this way, the user can hold the two handles 121 and move the first collection tank 10 to a suitable position, which is conducive to the operation of moving the position.
[0049] In an optional embodiment, a support rod 17 is provided between the two side plates 12. By providing the support rod 17 between the two side plates 12, the strength of the first collection groove 10 can be increased, and the side plates 12 can be prevented from bending and deforming.
[0050] In an optional embodiment, the first support rod 14 includes a telescopic rod. For example, a nested telescopic rod assembly can be used, employing threaded rods or ball bearings, to achieve length variations.
[0051] In this way, by finely adjusting the height of the first support rod 14, the position of the slot 122 can be better matched with that of the transverse reinforcing rib 102.
[0052] In conjunction with the above embodiments, this application, through the combination of a first collection tank and a second collection tank, can collect the oxide scale falling from the furnace opening to the target area, thus avoiding oxide scale contamination of the facilities and site around the furnace opening. The first and second collection tanks have high flexibility; during non-cleaning cycles, they can be independently disassembled and placed in suitable locations without occupying space. During cleaning cycles, the first collection tank can be placed close to the outside of the furnace opening to catch the oxide scale, and the second collection tank is assembled to the lower end of the first collection tank to collect the falling oxide scale, thereby protecting natural gas equipment, improving safety, and reducing environmental pollution.
[0053] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this invention shall be determined by the claims.
