Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of iron and steel smelting technology, and in particular to an easy-to-disassemble open-top iron ladle support. Background Technology

[0002] Molten iron ladle supports are supporting devices used in industries such as steel smelting to support and transport special high-temperature fluid media such as molten iron. They primarily provide a stable foundation for the molten iron ladle, ensuring the safety and stability of the molten iron during transfer and temporary storage, and are important auxiliary devices connecting smelting and casting processes.

[0003] Currently, most molten iron ladle supports on the market are equipped with an integrated top cover. This design makes opening and closing the top cover extremely inconvenient in actual use. Firstly, opening and closing such top covers often requires a large operating space, and their movement radius is large. This not only imposes many limitations in space-constrained work environments but also lacks stability during operation, easily leading to safety hazards due to shaking and other factors. Secondly, due to the structural characteristics of the integrated top cover, its strength cannot be fully guaranteed when facing complex working environments and frequent opening and closing requirements. After long-term use, it is prone to deformation and damage, thus affecting the normal use and service life of the molten iron ladle support. Utility Model Content

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0022] like Figure 1-4As shown in the illustration, this application discloses an easily detachable open-top molten iron ladle support, including a base frame 10, a front cover 34, and a rear cover 44. The base frame 10 is a frame-like structure, serving as the basic load-bearing structure of the entire support and providing an installation platform for each component. Both the front cover 34 and the rear cover 44 are semi-circular structures, forming a complete circle to seal the ladle opening. Support frames 20 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the base frame 10, with the two support frames 20 jointly supporting the molten iron ladle. Reinforcing ribs are provided inside the support frames 20 to strengthen them and ensure support strength. A limiting block 21 is provided at each of the front and rear ends of the top of the support frame 20. These limiting blocks 21 on both sides can precisely limit the molten iron ladle placed on the support frame 20, preventing displacement and shaking in the front-to-back direction during parking, transportation, or operation of the support. This not only ensures the stability and safety of the molten iron ladle, preventing accidents such as molten iron spillage and equipment collisions that may occur due to ladle shaking, but also protects the molten iron ladle and support frame 20 themselves, extending their service life.

[0023] A front column 30 is provided on each of the left and right sides of the front end of the base frame 10. A first rotating shaft 31 is horizontally arranged at the top of the front column 30. A tilting seat 32 is rotatably mounted on the first rotating shaft 31. The two tilting seats 32 jointly support the front tilting frame 33. A tilting arm 35 is protruding forward from the tilting seat 32. A front tilting cylinder 36 is provided on the base frame 10 in front of the front column 30. The cylinder body end of the front tilting cylinder 36 is hinged to the base frame 10, and the piston rod end is hinged to the end of the tilting arm 35 away from the front tilting seat 32. The extension and retraction of the piston rod of the front tilting cylinder 36 pushes the rotating arm 35, thereby driving the front tilting seat 32 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 31, and driving the front tilting frame 33 to tilt. A front cover 34 is mounted on the front tilting frame 33. Specifically, two first support blocks 37 are spaced apart in the middle of the side wall of the front cover 34, and a first ear plate 38 is mounted on each side of the side wall of the front cover 34. The middle of the front tilting frame 33 is connected to the two first support blocks 37, and first connecting rods 39 protrude from both sides of the front tilting frame 33 and connect to the corresponding first ear plates 38. This makes the connection between the front cover 34 and the front tilting frame 33 more secure and stable, distributes the weight load of the front cover 34, and avoids damage caused by excessive local stress.

[0024] A base 40 is provided on each of the left and right sides of the rear end of the base frame 10. A horizontally arranged second rotating shaft 41 is provided at the top of the base 40. A rear column 42 is rotatably mounted on the second rotating shaft 41. The tops of the two rear columns 42 jointly support the rear tilting frame 43. A connecting arm 45 is provided on the upper rear side of the rear column 42. A rear tilting cylinder 46 is provided on the base frame 10 behind the rear column 42. The cylinder body of the rear tilting cylinder 46 is hinged to the base frame 10, and the piston rod is hinged to the connecting arm 45. The extension and retraction of the piston rod of the rear tilting cylinder 46 pushes the connecting arm 45, thereby driving the rear tilting seat 32 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 41, and driving the rear tilting frame 43 to tilt. The rear tilting frame 43 is equipped with a rear cover 44. Specifically, two second support blocks 47 are spaced apart in the middle of the side wall of the cover, and a second ear plate 48 is provided on each side of the side wall of the rear cover 44. The middle of the rear tilting frame 43 is connected to the two second support blocks 47, and second connecting rods 49 are protruding from both sides of the rear tilting frame 43 and connected to the corresponding second ear plates 48. This makes the connection between the rear cover 44 and the rear tilting frame 43 more secure and stable, distributes the weight load of the rear cover 44, and avoids damage caused by excessive local stress. This design echoes the connection design of the front cover 34, ensuring the stability and reliability of the rear cover 44 during the tilting process.

[0025] Furthermore, dust covers 50 are fitted at the connection points between the tilting base 32 and the front tilting frame 33, and between the rear column 42 and the rear tilting frame 43. The dust covers 50 effectively prevent external dust, iron filings, debris, etc., from entering the rotating parts of the connection points, reducing wear and jamming caused by impurities, lowering the failure rate of the connection points, extending the service life of the rotating parts, improving the stability and reliability of the entire support equipment, and reducing the frequency and cost of equipment maintenance.

[0026] The operating principle of the easily detachable open-top molten iron ladle support in this embodiment is as follows: The front cover 34 and rear cover 44 are opened by the front tilting cylinder 36 and rear tilting cylinder 46, respectively. The molten iron ladle is then hoisted onto the base frame 10, so that the block-shaped protrusions on both sides of the ladle rest between the two limiting blocks 21 at the top of the support frame 20. The front tilting cylinder 36 and rear tilting cylinder 46 then drive the front tilting frame 33 and rear tilting frame 43 to rotate, causing the front cover 34 and rear cover 44 to close together, forming a complete circular cover at the mouth of the molten iron ladle, thus sealing the ladle. When it is necessary to remove the molten iron ladle, simply open the front cover 34 and rear cover 44 using the front tilting cylinder 36 and rear tilting cylinder 46. The operation is simple, convenient, and highly practical.
