Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of melting furnace technology, and in particular to a melting furnace for ferrous metal casting. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern industrial system, ferrous metal casting is a key basic process in fields such as machinery manufacturing, construction, and automobiles. Its production efficiency and product quality directly affect the development of various industries. The melting furnace used in ferrous metal casting is the core equipment, which undertakes the important task of heating and melting solid metal raw materials into liquid to meet the needs of subsequent casting and molding. With the acceleration of global industrialization and increasingly stringent environmental protection and occupational health and safety standards, higher requirements have been placed on the performance, reliability, and environmental protection of melting furnaces.

[0003] Currently, the most common ferrous metal casting melting furnaces on the market include electric arc furnaces, induction furnaces, and cupola furnaces. Taking the electric arc furnace as an example, it melts metal by releasing high temperature through the electric arc discharge generated between the electrodes and the furnace charge. The electrode column can control the temperature by adjusting the current and voltage during operation. The induction furnace, on the other hand, uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to generate eddy currents in the metal furnace charge in an alternating magnetic field, thereby heating and melting it.

[0004] However, existing melting furnaces for ferrous metal casting have shortcomings in practical applications. In terms of noise control, traditional melting furnaces generally lack efficient sound insulation devices or are only equipped with fixed sound insulation panels, which are simply fixed to the outside of the equipment with bolts and other connectors. This structure is not only cumbersome to install and disassemble, but also difficult to adapt to the high-frequency vibrations generated by long-term operation of the equipment, causing the sound insulation components to loosen and fall off easily. The sound insulation effect decreases significantly with the use time. Taking electric arc furnaces as an example, the arc discharge noise generated when the electrode column is working and the mechanical vibration noise generated by electromagnetic stirring far exceed occupational health and safety standards. Operators who are exposed to this environment for a long time face the risk of occupational diseases such as hearing damage and tinnitus. Therefore, a melting furnace for ferrous metal casting is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a melting furnace for ferrous metal casting, which aims to improve the problem of the lack of efficient sound insulation devices in the prior art.

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

[0007] A melting furnace for ferrous metal casting includes an operating table, with support columns fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the operating table, a melting furnace fixedly connected to the top of the operating table, a soundproof cover slidably connected to the top of the operating table, and locking components provided at the four corners of the bottom of the soundproof cover.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] A filter plate is slidably connected inside the exhaust pipe, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top of the filter plate.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0023] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. In this utility model, the locking pin is first inserted between the limiting ring one and the limiting ring two, and then the spring one is squeezed to compress it until the locking pin is fully inserted.

One end of the first spring 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 13, and the other end of the first spring 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing block 15. The first spring 14 provides elastic force during the insertion and removal of the locking pin 10, so as to realize the locking and unlocking functions of the soundproof cover 9.

The filter plate 16 adopts a multi-layer composite structure, with an outer layer of stainless steel wire mesh and an inner layer of activated carbon adsorption, used to filter dust, harmful gases and other impurities in the flue gas. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. A handle 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter plate 16. The handle 17 is made of engineering plastic, making it easy for operators to pull the filter plate 16 for installation and removal. A locking block 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter plate 16. The locking block 18 is made of steel and is used to cooperate with the limiting structure inside the exhaust pipe 8 to fix the filter plate 16. Both sides of the locking block 18 are slidably connected. A limiting bead 19, made of stainless steel, is slidably connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe 8, serving as a limiting and guiding element. A limiting plate 20, made of steel, is fixedly connected to the side wall of the limiting bead 19 and is used to connect a second spring 21. The outer wall of the limiting plate 20 is slidably connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe 8, and a second spring 21 is provided on the side wall of the limiting plate 20. One end of the second spring 21 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the limiting plate 20, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe 8. The second spring 21 provides elastic force during the installation and removal of the filter plate 16, realizing the locking and unlocking functions of the filter plate 16.

[0038] Working principle: When using this ferrous metal casting melting furnace, the operator puts the raw materials into the furnace 5. At this time, the operator installs the soundproof cover 9. First, the locking pin 10 at the bottom of the soundproof cover 9 is inserted into the corresponding hole inside the operating table 1. At this time, the side wall of the locking pin 10 presses the limiting ring 11 and the limiting ring 2 12, which in turn presses the fixing plate 13 to move downward. The fixing plate 13 then presses the spring 14 to compress it until the locking pin 10 is fully inserted between the limiting ring 11 and the limiting ring 2 12. The spring 14 rebounds, completing the locking of the soundproof cover 9. Then the electrode column 3 works, and the raw materials inside the furnace 5 begin to melt. After the melting is completed, the valve can be opened, and the melted raw materials flow out through the discharge pipe 7. When it is necessary to remove the soundproof cover 9, the operator first pulls the locking pin 10 upward. The side wall of the locking pin 10 presses the limiting ring 11 and the limiting ring 2 12, and the spring 14 is compressed until the locking pin 10 is removed, completing the unlocking of the soundproof cover 9. This achieves the effect of isolating the noise generated when the electrode column 3 is working.

[0039] During the melting of raw materials, a large amount of flue gas is generated and discharged from the exhaust pipe 8. When the filter plate 16 needs to be disassembled and cleaned, the operator first pulls the handle 17. At this time, the locking block 18 moves upward with the filter plate 16, squeezing the limit beads 19 at both ends. The limit beads 19 then squeeze the limit plate 20 and the second spring 21. The second spring 21 is compressed until the limit beads 19 leave the corresponding hole of the locking block 18. The filter plate 16 is completely removed, the second spring 21 rebounds, and the limit plate 20 and the limit beads 19 return to their original positions. When the filter plate 16 is put back after cleaning, the operator inserts the filter plate 16 into the corresponding hole inside the exhaust pipe 8. At this time, the locking block 18 squeezes the limit beads 19 at both ends, compressing the second spring 21 until the locking block 18 is fully inserted. The second spring 21 rebounds, allowing the limit beads 19 to insert into the corresponding hole of the locking block 18, completing the locking and achieving the effect of filtering impurities in the flue gas.

Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
