The invention discloses equipment and a method for feeding easily oxidized
alloy in a
tundish into
molten steel directly through a screw rod, belongs to the technical field of
metal smelting, and solves the technical problem that materials do not make contact with a
slag layer in the process of adding special
alloy into the
tundish. The feeding
auger penetrates through the high-temperature-resistant feeding
pipe in the vertical direction;
alloy easy to oxidize stored in the hopper is fed into the high-temperature-resistant feeding
pipe from the feeding port through the feeding
auger, an air inlet is formed in the position, located above the surface of the
slag layer, of the lower portion of the side wall of the high-temperature-resistant feeding
pipe, the air inlet is communicated with a
shielding gas pump
station through an air pipe, and
shielding gas is blown into the high-temperature-resistant feeding pipe from the air inlet. And the protective gas is discharged through the feeding
auger and the feeding auger in sequence, that is, the flowing direction of the protective gas is opposite to the feeding direction of the easily oxidized alloy. Due to the fact that the
system is protected by the protective
atmosphere in the feeding process and is prevented from making contact with a
slag layer in the feeding process, materials can be effectively prevented from being oxidized, and the yield of the materials is increased.
