In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0056] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; it can be the communication inside two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0057] In addition, in the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.

[0058] As shown in FIG. 2, the present application provides a tin bath bottom brick, which comprises a brick body 1 and a blocking plug 122. The brick body 1 is a cuboid, and a plurality of blind holes 111 vertically extending along the height direction of the brick body 1 are formed on the bottom surface 11 thereof. An open slot 12 is also formed in the brick body 1 and communicates with the upper end of the blind hole 111, one end of the open slot 12 extends to the side surface of the brick body 1 and communicates with an open slot opening 121 formed on the side surface, and the blocking plug 122 is used to block the open slot opening 121.

[0059] Specifically, the cross section of the blind hole 111 is circular, which matches the shape of the bolt used for mounting the tin trough bottom brick. The cross section of the slot 12 is rectangular, which is easy to process, and the slot 12 extends along the width direction of the brick body 1. The plugging plug 122 includes a plugging cover 1221 and a plugging column 1222 connected to each other, the plugging cover 1221 is inserted into the slot opening 121, and the plugging column 1222 is inserted into the slot 12. Further, the cross-sectional area of the plugging cover 1221 is greater than that of the plugging column 1222, and the cross-sectional area of the slot opening 121 is greater than that of the slot 12. Such an arrangement helps to increase the contact area between the slot opening 121 and the plugging cover 1221, and the plugging cover 1221 is bonded and fixed by using the sealing material filled in the slot 12, so as to achieve the effect of complete blocking and sealing.

[0060] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the present application also provides a mounting method of the aforementioned tin trough bottom brick, which comprises the following steps:

[0061] S1, according to the position and size of the blind hole 111, welding the stud 3 at the corresponding position of the tin trough bottom shell 2.

[0062] S2, cleaning the welding slag around the stud 3, and sequentially sleeving the first gasket 61 and the sleeve 62 on the stud 3. Specifically, the inner diameter of the first gasket 61 and the sleeve 62 is greater than the outer diameter of the stud 3, and the outer diameter of the first gasket 61 and the sleeve 62 is smaller than the diameter of the blind hole 111. The first gasket 61 and the sleeve 62 can block the gap between the stud 3 and the blind hole 111 and the bottom surface 11, and play the role of anti-seepage sealing.

[0063] S3, after confirming that the upper surface of the sleeve 62 is flush with the upper surface of the blind hole 111, sleeving the brick body 1 outside the stud 3, aligning the central axes of the sleeve 62 and the blind hole 111, and arranging the leveling gasket 7 between the bottom surface 11 of the brick body 1 and the tin trough bottom shell 2, completing the leveling process of the brick body 1.

[0064] S4, sequentially sleeving the second gasket 63, the gasket 64 and the nut 4 on the stud 3 through the slot 12, and tightening the nut 4 without damaging the second gasket 63, and pressing the brick body 1 tightly against the tin trough bottom shell 2. Specifically, the inner diameter of the second gasket 64 is smaller than the diameter of the blind hole 111, and the outer diameter of the second gasket 64 is greater than the diameter of the blind hole 111. The second gasket 64 can block the communication between the slot 12 and the blind hole 111, and also play the role of anti-seepage sealing.

[0065] S5, filling the slot 12 with sealing material 8, so that the sealing material 8 densely wraps the stud 3, the second gasket 64, the gasket 63 and the nut 4 exposed outside the blind hole 111. The sealing material 8 can play the role of secondary blocking and protection.

[0066] S6, extruding the sealing material 88 in the slotted 12 with the sealing plug 122, and sealing the slotted opening 121. The sealing material 8 fully penetrates the gap between the sealing plug 122 and the slotted opening 121, and adheres and fixes the sealing plug 122 in the opening 121, so that the sealing plug 122 can play a triple barrier and protection role.

[0067] Preferably, the first gasket 61, the sleeve 62 and the second gasket 63 are all made of graphite with strong corrosion resistance.

[0068] Compared with the prior art, the tin bath bottom brick provided by the application has a complete upper surface, and the direct contact between the tin liquid 5 and the sealing material 8 is ingeniously avoided by the complete upper surface and the tin liquid 5, which greatly reduces the possibility of tin penetration, tin leakage and brick floating accidents caused by corrosion of the sealing material 8.

[0069] The installation method of the tin bath bottom brick provided by the application adopts a three-seal barrier installation form of the lower first gasket 61-sleeve 62-upper second gasket 63, the sealing material 8 and the sealing plug 122, so that the installation structure of the tin bath bottom brick is more safe and reliable, the risk of tin liquid 5 penetrating and corroding the stud 3 and the tin bath bottom shell 2 is further reduced, and the safety and reliability of industrial production are improved. The tamping construction of the sealing material 8 is simple and easy to operate, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of the installation construction of the tin bath bottom brick.
