Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metallurgical equipment technology, specifically a high-pressure double air knife device for a continuous casting and rolling production line. Background Technology

[0002] A high-pressure air knife is a device that uses a high-pressure blower and a patented air knife to work together. Based on the Coanda effect, it forms a high-speed airflow sheet with a thickness of only 0.05 mm. Its main function is to quickly remove surface water film, and the drying efficiency is 30-40 times higher than that of traditional methods. Therefore, a high-pressure dual air knife device is needed for continuous casting and rolling production lines.

[0003] In response, Chinese patent application number CN207280155U discloses a high-pressure air knife device, including a frame, on which an upper high-pressure air knife and a lower high-pressure air knife located below the upper high-pressure air knife are installed. The upper high-pressure air knife and the lower high-pressure air knife are respectively connected to the air outlet pipe of a high-pressure blower. In addition to the upper high-pressure air knife, a lower high-pressure air knife is also provided below the upper high-pressure air knife, thereby achieving a more efficient air knife water scraping effect.

[0004] However, existing high-pressure dual-air knife devices used in continuous casting and rolling production lines are prone to residual moisture in the casting wheel due to insufficient air coverage area of ​​the single air knife. Residual moisture affects the uniformity of the carbon coating, causing difficulties in demolding and porosity on the surface of the billet, which seriously affects product quality.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a high-pressure dual-air knife device for continuous casting and rolling production lines is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a high-pressure double air knife device for continuous casting and rolling production lines, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. In the prior art, the high-pressure double air knife device for continuous casting and rolling production lines has insufficient air coverage area of ​​a single air knife, which easily leads to residual moisture on the casting wheel. The residual moisture affects the uniformity of the carbon coating, causing difficulties in demolding and porosity on the surface of the billet, which seriously affects the product quality.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a high-pressure double air knife device for a continuous casting and rolling production line, comprising: a grooved plate and a double air knife body, wherein the upper end of the grooved plate is provided with the double air knife body, a limiting hole is opened in the middle of the grooved plate, and screw holes are opened on both sides of the grooved plate, a double air knife mechanism is provided on the double air knife body, a pipe joint is provided in the double air knife mechanism, a first high-pressure air knife outlet is opened on the double air knife body, and a second high-pressure air knife outlet is opened on the double air knife body, and an end cap is provided at the other end of the double air knife body. The device adopts a parallel layout of double air knives and an adjustable angle design, which significantly improves the surface drying efficiency of the casting wheel and the uniformity of the carbon coating.

[0008] Preferably, the grooved plate is provided with a support mechanism, the support mechanism is provided with a limiting plate, and a screw is fixedly installed on the limiting plate. The grooved plate can be used to support and fix the support mechanism.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom end of the screw passes through a screw hole, and a nut is threadedly installed at the bottom end of the screw, so that the screw passes through the screw hole and is fixed by the nut.

[0010] Preferably, a ceramic plate is fixedly installed on the upper end of the screw, and a fixing block is fixedly installed on the top of the screw. Using the ceramic plate on the screw can improve the high temperature resistance of the bracket.

[0011] Preferably, a concave plate is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing block, and a limit bolt is threaded in the middle of the concave plate. The fixing block can support and fix the concave plate.

[0012] Preferably, the concave plate has an arc-shaped sleeve in the middle, one side of which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the double air knife body, and the arc-shaped sleeve is fixedly installed on the concave plate by a limiting bolt. The limiting bolt on the concave plate can be used to limit the arc-shaped sleeve.

[0013] Preferably, the pipe connector is fixedly installed on one side of the dual air knife body, and the end is fixedly installed on the other side of the dual air knife body, and the high-pressure gas is delivered to the dual air knife body using the pipe connector.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. By setting up a support mechanism, the body of the double air knife can be supported and fixed. Compared with the existing structure, since the double air knife is installed in parallel in the middle of the casting wheel, the temperature is higher. However, the ceramic plate on the support mechanism of this utility model can effectively make the bottom structure of the support resistant to high temperature, thereby improving the service life of the device.

[0016] 2. By incorporating a dual-air knife mechanism, this practical solution addresses the issue of insufficient air coverage by a single air knife, which can lead to residual moisture on the casting wheel. This residual moisture affects the uniformity of the carbon coating, causing difficulties in demolding and porosity on the surface of the casting billet, thereby improving the product quality of the device.
