Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steel wire rod production technology, and in particular to a roller conveyor integrated billet spray cooling device. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of rolled steel wire rod, steel billets produced by continuous casting in steel mills typically have high temperatures (approximately 600-800℃). Traditionally, these high-temperature billets require cooling in the following ways: The first is natural cooling, where the billets are cooled to a furnace-ready temperature (500-550℃) before entering the furnace. However, natural cooling is slow, disrupting production and wasting energy. The second method is in-furnace cooling, where some companies directly feed the high-temperature billets into the heating furnace, using increased gas consumption for forced convection heat exchange. However, this obviously wastes gas, and the cooling effect is not ideal. Furthermore, feeding the billets directly into the furnace without cooling can lead to product quality issues.
[0003] Therefore, this utility model attempts to provide a billet cooling device that can achieve rapid and uniform cooling. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention aims to provide a roller conveyor integrated billet spray cooling device that can achieve rapid and uniform cooling of billets in continuous casting processes.
[0005] This utility model provides an integrated roller conveyor billet spray cooling device, comprising: a heat detection system; a water supply system, including a main water supply pipe, a control valve installed on the main water supply pipe, and multiple branch water pipes connected to the main water supply pipe; a spray assembly, including a nozzle connecting pipe fixed to the end of the branch water pipe by welding, a nozzle installed on the nozzle connecting pipe by threaded connection, and a baffle plate set around the branch water pipe, the nozzles being set on the left and right sides of the roller conveyor for spraying and cooling the billets on the roller conveyor; and a drainage structure, including a return water port set below the roller conveyor for timely discharge of spray wastewater.
[0006] Furthermore, the thermal detection system includes two pyrometers, which are placed at the inlet and outlet of the roller conveyor, respectively, and are connected to the control system of the spray device via signal connection.
[0007] Furthermore, the main water supply pipeline is equipped with a pressure sensor and a flow regulating valve, and the pressure sensor is connected to the heating furnace control system.
[0008] The roller conveyor integrated steel billet spray cooling device provided by this utility model can spray and cool the steel billet while maintaining the natural transportation of the steel billet, thereby achieving rapid and uniform cooling of the steel billet. Attached Figure Description

[0014] like Figure 1 As shown, the roller conveyor integrated billet spray cooling device includes a main water supply pipe 1, a control valve 2, a branch water pipe 3, a nozzle connecting pipe 4, a nozzle 5, a return water port 6, a filter screen 7, a pressure sensor 8, and a pyrometer 9.
[0015] The main water supply pipe 1 is horizontally arranged above the roller conveyor, and its inlet end is connected to the medium-pressure turbidity circulating water system in the plant area. Pressure sensor 8 and control valve 2 are installed sequentially on the main water supply pipe 1. The main water supply pipe 1 is connected to four branch water pipes 3, and the spacing between the branch water pipes 3 is 1500mm±50mm. The nozzle connecting pipe 4 is welded to the end of the branch water pipe 3. The welding method is argon arc welding, and the weld height is not less than 5mm. The nozzle 5 is connected to the nozzle connecting pipe 4 by M45×2 thread, and the thread fit accuracy is 6H / 6g.
[0016] The nozzle connecting pipe 4 has an inner diameter of 50mm, a wall thickness of 5mm, and is made of 06Cr19Ni10 material; the nozzle 5 is a fan-shaped nozzle with a spray angle of 60°±5° and a flow coefficient Kv=4.2.
[0017] The return water inlet 6 has a V-shaped groove structure with a groove inclination angle of 7°±1°; the filter screen 7 is a detachable design, made of 304 stainless steel, with a mesh size of 2mm×2mm; the end of the return water inlet 6 is connected to the plant's water treatment system through a DN200 pipe.
[0018] Preferably, the four branch water pipes 3 and the nozzle connecting pipes 5 welded to the branch water pipes 3 are made of stainless steel, which is rust-proof and high temperature resistant, and the nozzles 5 are made of copper alloy, which has excellent thermal conductivity and oxidation resistance.
[0019] Furthermore, the position of the branch water pipes in the spray assembly is adjustable, allowing for adjustments to the spray position based on the billet's location to ensure uniform cooling. For example, the branch water pipes can be connected to movable modules for fine-tuning, or they can be connected to ball screws, etc.
[0020] Preferably, stainless steel baffles are installed around the branch water pipes to block the spray wastewater and prevent it from damaging the electrical equipment.
[0021] Work process: Step 1: The steel billet enters the testing area, and the surface temperature is measured by a pyrometer; Step 2: When the temperature exceeds the set temperature threshold, the PLC controller starts the spraying program; Step 3: Control valve 2 to adjust the water pressure (0.6-1.0MPa) according to the preset curve; Step 4: After the high temperature gauge at the outlet of the spray device detects that the steel billet has left the spray device, stop the spraying and cooling process; Step 5: Wastewater is discharged through return water outlet 6, completing the cooling process.
[0022] This embodiment uses a spray nozzle to spray a fan-shaped water stream to cool the high-temperature steel billet. The fan-shaped water stream can be flexibly adjusted using a pressure sensor and flow control valve on the main water supply pipeline to adapt to different production processes. This invention significantly improves cooling efficiency. Through a multi-nozzle array arrangement, it achieves uniform cooling of the steel billet surface and allows for flexible adjustment of the flow rate to control the temperature gradient, meeting the requirements of continuous production and significantly reducing gas consumption.
