[0002] Cast iron smelting is a process of converting metal raw materials into molten iron that meets the composition requirements through high-temperature treatment. Its core lies in the precise control of carbon and silicon content and alloy element ratio. The charging car is used in steelmaking workshops such as refining furnaces and medium-frequency furnaces in steel plants or foundries. It is installed at the rear end of the furnace shell and is used to add furnace charge into the furnace. Depending on the site conditions, it can be arranged horizontally or vertically. The charging car realizes a centralized charging mode, which reduces the frequency and time of the original process charging and greatly improves the charging efficiency.
[0003] The feeder has a long rod with a hopper at the front end. When feeding, the trolley moves to drive the rod and hopper into the feeding area. The trolley is located on the outside to avoid direct contact with heat sources. With this feeding method, the rod is not easy to adjust and can only be driven by the movement of the trolley, which is inconvenient.
[0004] Therefore, an energy-saving feeder for cast iron smelting is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

When rotating, the extension pipe can be driven to move forward along the inner side of the main pipe, extending the position of the material box and assisting in the feeding operation, thus realizing the extension adjustment function of the material box of the energy-saving cast iron smelting feeder.
[0015] By setting up a drive shaft, starting the third motor can drive the drive shaft and connecting shaft to rotate. During the rotation of the drive shaft and connecting shaft, the front-end material box can be driven to flip. During the flipping of the material box, the material inside the material box can be fed in, realizing the flipping and feeding function of the material box of this energy-saving cast iron smelting feeder.
