Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum production and processing technology, and in particular to a slag-blocking device for an electrolytic aluminum ladle used in aluminum casting and rolling. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum and its alloys are an indispensable part of modern industrial manufacturing. Currently, molten aluminum produced by electrolysis is usually temporarily stored in an electrolytic aluminum ladle. Over time, the molten aluminum stored in the ladle will clump together. When the molten aluminum is discharged from the ladle, small lumpy slag and electrolyte impurities will be generated. Existing equipment is not very effective at removing these impurities, and it is difficult to clean and maintain the slag removal device.

[0003] When the high-temperature molten aluminum is poured directly out of the aluminum ladle, splashing occurs, which not only affects the drainage efficiency but also easily injures operators, posing a certain safety hazard. In addition, electrolytic aluminum production also produces harmful gases, causing environmental pollution. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a slag-blocking device for an electrolytic aluminum ladle used in aluminum casting and rolling.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a slag-blocking device for an electrolytic aluminum ladle used in aluminum casting and rolling, comprising a slag-blocking cabinet, a feed inlet on one side of the top of the slag-blocking cabinet, a threaded connecting ring on the top of the feed inlet, threaded rings evenly distributed on the inner wall of the threaded connecting ring, a dust-covering cover on the top of the threaded connecting ring, an exhaust port on the other side of the top of the slag-blocking cabinet, a sealing cover on the top of the exhaust port, a pull-out groove on the front of the slag-blocking cabinet, a sealing ring wrapped around the outside of the pull-out groove, a temporary storage rack on one side of the slag-blocking cabinet, a liquid storage tank on one side of the bottom of the slag-blocking cabinet, a waste slag tank on the other side of the bottom of the slag-blocking cabinet, a slag cleaning port at the bottom of the waste slag tank, a liquid delivery pipe at the bottom of the liquid storage tank, and an overflow valve passing through the inside of the liquid delivery pipe.

[0006] Preferably, the slag retainer is provided with an inspection port on the other side, and the inspection port is hinged to the slag retainer.

[0008] Preferably, the infusion tube has a baffle plate on the side away from the overflow valve, and the baffle plate is movably connected to the bottom of the waste residue tank. The infusion tube has a spherical groove corresponding to the position of the baffle plate.

[0009] Preferably, the feed inlet is provided with a screw rod inside, and the screw rod is movably connected to the feed inlet.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the slag barrier is connected to four support legs at each of the four corners, the support legs are wrapped with shock-absorbing components, and the bottom of the support legs is provided with a fixed support.

[0011] Preferably, the exhaust port includes a carbon dioxide filter plate, a hydrogen fluoride filter plate, and an activated carbon filter plate. The carbon dioxide filter plate is located near the top of the exhaust port, the activated carbon filter plate is located near the bottom of the exhaust port, and the hydrogen fluoride filter plate is located between the carbon dioxide filter plate and the activated carbon filter plate.

[0012] Beneficial effects

[0013] In this invention, a sieve plate, a spherical groove, and a slag-blocking plate are used. The sieve plate can separate lumpy slag and electrolyte impurities from the electrolytic aluminum liquid and separate the aluminum liquid from the waste residue, allowing the aluminum liquid to enter the storage tank and the waste residue to enter the waste residue tank.

A feed inlet 2 is located on one side of the top of the slag-blocking cabinet 1. A threaded connecting ring 3 is located at the top of the feed inlet 2. Threaded rings 20 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the threaded connecting ring 3, allowing for convenient and quick connection between the electrolytic aluminum ladle and the slag-blocking cabinet 1. A dust-covering cover 4 is located at the top of the threaded connecting ring 3, preventing dust from entering the cabinet when it is not in use. An exhaust port 5 is located on the other side of the top of the slag-blocking cabinet 1, and a sealing cover 6 is located at the top of the exhaust port 5. The sealing cover 6 can be opened and closed as needed to release gas. The slag cabinet 1 has a pull-out groove 7 on the front, and a sealing ring 8 is wrapped around the outside of the pull-out groove 7. The screen plate 18 can be easily removed and installed through the pull-out groove 7, which is convenient for replacing and cleaning the screen plate 18. A temporary storage rack 9 is provided on one side of the slag cabinet 1, which can store the ash cover 4 when the slag cabinet 1 is working. A liquid storage tank 14 is provided on one side of the bottom of the slag cabinet 1, and a waste slag tank 15 is provided on the other side of the bottom of the slag cabinet 1. A slag cleaning port 23 is opened at the bottom of the waste slag tank. A liquid delivery pipe 16 is opened at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 14. An overflow valve 21 runs through the inside of the liquid delivery pipe 16. The overflow valve 21 will reduce the flow rate when the water pressure inside the liquid delivery pipe 16 is too high.

[0025] On the other side of the slag-blocking cabinet 1, there is an inspection port 13, which is hinged to the slag-blocking cabinet 1. Waste slag can be easily cleaned through the inspection port 13 and the slag-cleaning port 23.

Inside the liquid delivery pipe 16, on the side away from the overflow valve 21, there is a slag-blocking plate 22, which is movably connected to the bottom of the waste slag tank 15. The liquid delivery pipe 16 has a spherical groove 17 corresponding to the position of the slag-blocking plate 22. The spherical groove 17 can reduce the flow rate of the electrolytic aluminum liquid, while the slag-blocking plate 22 intercepts the floating slag on the aluminum liquid.

Specific Implementation Example 2:

[0027] Reference Figure 1-4 The threaded connection ring 3 can be directly replaced by a flange valve. The flange valve can not only open and close the pipeline in time according to the needs to prevent the fluid in the pipeline from flowing, but also adjust the flow rate of molten aluminum to prevent excessive pressure inside the slag baffle 1 caused by excessive high-temperature molten aluminum entering the slag baffle 1, which would damage the slag baffle 1. Specific Implementation Example 3:

[0029] Reference Figure 1-4 In addition to using carbon dioxide filter plate 501, hydrogen fluoride filter plate 502, and activated carbon filter plate 503 to filter and absorb harmful gases inside the exhaust port 5, it can also treat harmful gases through condensation recovery. It uses a condenser to cool and condense the vapor containing harmful gases from the air into liquid, and the liquid can be collected for secondary recovery.

[0030] In summary:

[0031] 1. The system employs a sieve plate 18, a spherical groove 17, and a slag baffle plate 22. The sieve plate 18 can separate lumpy slag and electrolyte impurities from the electrolytic aluminum liquid and separate the aluminum liquid from the waste residue, allowing the aluminum liquid to enter the storage tank 14 and the waste residue to enter the waste residue tank 15. The spherical groove 17 can reduce the flow rate of the electrolytic aluminum liquid, making it easier for the slag baffle plate 22 to intercept the floating slag on the aluminum liquid. Through the above design, the screening efficiency is improved, the purity of the electrolytic aluminum liquid is guaranteed, and energy consumption and production costs are reduced.

[0032] 2. A threaded connecting ring 3 is set at the top of the feed inlet 2 and a spiral rod 19 is set inside.
