Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of billet heat preservation and heating technology, and particularly relates to a progressive heat preservation and heating device for billet roller conveyors. Background Technology

[0002] Steel billets produced by continuous casting need to be transported via roller conveyors to the rolling mill for forming. During transportation, the billets experience a temperature drop, requiring reheating upon arrival at the rolling mill. This reheating step increases the complexity of the steelmaking process. To reduce temperature drop, insulation covers are installed on the roller conveyors. However, these conveyors are often quite long, around 80 meters, and the billets still don't reach the required rolling temperature before entering the rolling mill. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that can heat and maintain the temperature of the billets during roller conveyor transport, ensuring they reach the required rolling temperature upon entering the rolling mill. Summary of the Invention

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a progressive heat preservation and heating device for a steel billet roller conveyor 1 includes a roller conveyor 1, an insulation cover 2 installed on the roller conveyor 1, and vertical plates 3 fixed at both ends of the upper and lower sides of the insulation cover 2. A bidirectional screw 4 is rotatably connected between the two vertical plates 3 on the same side and a slide rod 5 is fixedly connected thereto. Two sliders 6 are threaded onto the bidirectional screw 4, and both sliders 6 are connected to the slide rod 5. A rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected to the sliders 6. A gas-side branch pipe 8 is sleeved on the rotating rod 7. The gas-side branch pipe 8 is hinged and passes through the insulation cover 2. A gas middle branch pipe 9 is fixedly passed through the insulation cover 2. Both the gas-side branch pipe 8 and the gas middle branch pipe 9 are connected to hoses 10 on the outside of the insulation cover 2 and nozzles 11 are connected to the inside of the insulation cover 2. The hoses 10 are connected to a gas main pipe 12, and a gas valve 13 is installed on the gas main pipe 12.

[0026] The insulation cover 2 has two symmetrical slots 14 on its upper and lower sides, which provide sufficient rotation space for the gas-side branch pipe 8. Support rings 15 are welded to the middle position on both sides of the slots 14, and the support rings 15 are used to hinge the gas-side branch pipe 8.

[0027] Support rods 16 are welded to both sides of the gas-side branch pipe 8. The support rods 16 on both sides of the gas-side branch pipe 8 pass through the support rings 15 on both sides of the strip hole 14. The gas-side branch pipe 8 is hinged to the heat insulation cover 2 through the support rods 16 and the support rings 15. The gas-side branch pipe 8 passes through the heat insulation cover 2 through the strip hole 14.

[0028] There is at least one gas branch pipe 9, which is located between two gas side branch pipes 8.

[0029] One end of the rotating rod 7 is welded with a sleeve 17, and the other end of the rotating rod 7 is fixed with two retaining rings 18. The rotating rod 7 is connected to the gas side branch pipe 8 through the sleeve 17.

[0030] A retaining ring 19 is welded to one side of the slider 6. The two sliders 6 are respectively threaded onto the two opposite threads of the bidirectional lead screw 4. The rotating rod 7 passes through the retaining ring 19, and the two retaining rings 18 are located on both sides of the retaining ring 19.

[0031] An anti-rotation fixing component 20 is installed at either end of the bidirectional lead screw 4. The anti-rotation fixing component 20 is existing technology and can lock the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 4, thereby fixing the angle of the gas-side branch pipe 8. The anti-rotation fixing component 20 is fixed on the vertical plate 3, and a handle 21 is installed at one end of the bidirectional lead screw 4.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0033] In use, several units of this invention are installed at intervals on the insulation cover 2, ensuring they are positioned between the support rollers of the roller conveyor 1. The angles of the two gas-supported pipes are adjusted according to the width of the billet. Specifically, the handle 21 is rotated to rotate the bidirectional screw 4. The two oppositely oriented threads of the bidirectional screw 4 drive the two sliders 6 to move synchronously and in opposite directions. The sliders 6 drive the rotating rod 7 to move, and the rotating rod 7, through the sleeve 17, drives one end of the gas-supported pipe to rotate. Since the gas-supported pipe is hinged to the insulation cover 2, the other end of the gas-supported pipe rotates in the opposite direction, thus adjusting the jet angle of the gas-supported pipe to adapt to the width of the billet. After adjustment, the bidirectional screw 4 is locked by the anti-rotation fixing part 20 to prevent further rotation. After the billet enters the roller conveyor 1, the gas valve 13 is opened according to the square steel rhythm. Gas is sprayed from the nozzle 11 onto the billet. Due to the high temperature of the billet after tapping (above 950℃), the gas is ignited, thus heating the billet.

[0034] The above embodiments are merely descriptions of preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the concept and scope of the present invention. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by those skilled in the art without departing from the design concept of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0035] The technologies, shapes, and structures not described in detail in this utility model are all known technologies.
