Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of converter steelmaking technology, and in particular to a converter hearth that slows down the erosion rate of bottom-blown permeable bricks. Background Technology

[0002] Top-and-bottom blowing converters are currently the mainstream trend in large converters. The erosion rate of the bottom-blown permeable bricks directly affects the stability of the bottom-blowing effect. Bottom-blown permeable bricks are crucial for the smelting of high-quality steels. Throughout the furnace's service life, with increasing furnace age, the erosion of the bottom-blown permeable bricks gradually intensifies due to high-temperature melting and chemical corrosion. In the later stages of furnace service, it is often necessary to reduce the bottom-blown gas flow rate or even shut down the permeable bricks to ensure safe and stable furnace operation. This compromises the bottom-blowing effect and negatively impacts the reduction of carbon-oxygen product and the improvement of steel cleanliness.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN110819757A discloses a maintenance method and device for bottom-blown permeable bricks in a converter. This device mainly uses a patching compound to repair eroded areas of the bottom-blown permeable bricks, ensuring the thickness of the bricks and extending their service life. Its main disadvantages are: (1) using a patching compound to repair eroded areas significantly increases maintenance costs; (2) manual loading of the patching compound is required, and the patching process takes time, affecting the converter's operational efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, this application needs to provide a solution that does not increase maintenance costs, does not affect converter production efficiency, and can slow down the erosion rate of bottom-blown permeable bricks while ensuring the bottom-blowing effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides a converter hearth that slows down the erosion rate of bottom-blown permeable bricks, solving the technical problem of excessively rapid erosion of bottom-blown permeable bricks and difficulty in maintaining the bottom-blowing effect under current conditions without increasing maintenance costs or affecting converter production efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A converter bottom for slowing down the erosion rate of bottom-blown permeable bricks includes a converter shell. The bottom of the converter shell is constructed from bottom to top with a permanent bottom layer and a working bottom layer. The permanent bottom layer is horizontally laid with magnesia-alumina bricks. The working bottom layer is vertically laid with magnesia-carbon bricks, arranged in a circular pattern from the center to the periphery of the bottom. Six bottom-blown permeable bricks are distributed at the eighth ring of the vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks, each brick being constructed within the permanent bottom layer and the working bottom layer. Two of these bottom-blown permeable bricks are located on the tapping side of the converter. An annular protective layer is provided on the top surface of the working bottom layer around the two bottom-blown permeable bricks on the tapping side, and this annular protective layer is higher than the top surface of the corresponding bottom-blown permeable brick.

[0008] Furthermore, the annular protective layer is 50-60mm above the top surface of the bottom-blown permeable brick.

[0009] Furthermore, an aluminum-magnesium brick is laid between the bottom of the vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks on the two bottom-blown permeable bricks on the tapping side and the permanent layer of the furnace bottom, so that the vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks on the periphery of the bottom-blown permeable bricks protrude from the furnace bottom working layer and the bottom-blown permeable bricks in other positions, forming the annular protective layer.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] The improved converter bottom structure of this utility model is completed directly during the converter lining process, and no special maintenance is required during the converter's operation, which is conducive to improving the converter's operating rate. The annular protective layer formed after lining slows down the erosion rate of the converter's permeable bricks, ensuring a good bottom blowing effect, which is conducive to reducing the carbon-oxygen product in converter smelting and improving the cleanliness of molten steel. At the same time, it reduces the maintenance cost of converter bottom blowing, eliminating the need to use spraying material to repair the bottom blowing permeable bricks.

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a converter bottom for slowing down the erosion rate of bottom-blown permeable bricks includes a converter shell 1. The bottom of the converter shell 1 is constructed from bottom to top with a permanent bottom layer 2 and a working bottom layer 3. The permanent bottom layer 2 is horizontally laid with magnesia-alumina bricks. The working bottom layer 3 is vertically laid with magnesia-carbon bricks, which are arranged in a circular pattern from the center to the periphery of the bottom. Six bottom-blown permeable bricks 4 are distributed at the eighth ring of the vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks. Each bottom-blown permeable brick 4 is built within the permanent bottom layer 2 and the working bottom layer 3. Two of the bottom-blown permeable bricks 4 are located on the tapping side 11 of the converter 1. An annular protective layer 5 is provided on the top surface of the working bottom layer 3 around the two bottom-blown permeable bricks 4 located on the tapping side 11. The annular protective layer 5 is higher than the top surface of the corresponding bottom-blown permeable brick 4.

[0022] The specific method is that during the construction of the bottom blown permeable bricks 4 in the converter, an additional layer of aluminum-magnesium bricks 6 is built between the bottom of the vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks on the two bottom blown permeable bricks on the tapping side 11 and the permanent layer 2 of the furnace bottom. This makes the vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks on the periphery of the bottom blown permeable bricks 4 protrude from the furnace bottom working layer 3 and the corresponding bottom blown permeable bricks 4 in other positions, so as to protect the bottom blown permeable bricks 4. The final annular protective layer 5 is 50-60mm higher than the top surface of the corresponding bottom blown permeable brick 4 and other vertically laid magnesia-carbon bricks.

[0023] The improved converter bottom structure of this utility model is completed directly during the converter lining process, and no special maintenance is required during the converter's operation, which is conducive to improving the converter's operating rate. The annular protective layer formed after lining slows down the erosion rate of the converter's permeable bricks, ensuring a good bottom blowing effect, which is conducive to reducing the carbon-oxygen product in converter smelting and improving the cleanliness of molten steel. At the same time, it reduces the maintenance cost of converter bottom blowing, eliminating the need to use spraying material to repair the bottom blowing permeable bricks.

[0024] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be covered within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
