Detailed Description
As shown in FIGS. 1-10, the present invention is suitable for the working conditions that the lowest negative pressure can reach 5X 10-2 to 1X 10-3Mpa and the highest use temperature can reach 1000 ℃. Meanwhile, the device can deal with various severe working conditions such as high temperature, splashing of molten metal and the like during metal smelting. Can meet the sealing requirement of a large-caliber vacuum chamber with the maximum caliber up to 1700 mm. The plate inserting valve group is divided into an upper part and a lower part which are respectively and independently connected with the smelting chamber and the ingot casting chamber to realize independent sealing of the smelting chamber and the ingot casting chamber, so that the smelting chamber and the ingot casting chamber can be connected and separated under the condition of maintaining vacuum. One or more groups of gate valve assemblies of the ingot casting chamber and the smelting chamber can be selected according to specific conditions. The large-diameter combined type plate inserting valve group special for the continuous remelting furnace can ensure that continuous smelting operation can be carried out under the condition that the smelting chamber is not broken empty, and simultaneously can ensure that liquid metal ingots in the ingot casting chamber can be cooled in a vacuum environment all the time.
The combined flashboard valve group is applied to a continuous vacuum electron beam furnace, a continuous vacuum arc furnace, a continuous vacuum ion beam furnace and other large flashboard valves used for independently sealing an upper vacuum chamber and a lower vacuum chamber.
The upper gate valve and the lower gate valve are composed of two groups of transmission units, namely a pressing unit and a valve plate translation unit. The transmission modes of the two units adopt hydraulic transmission. The hydraulic transmission is stable, the load is large, the work is stable, the hydraulic transmission can adapt to severe environment, and the hydraulic transmission is suitable for the working condition. Wherein, the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber and the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber are respectively connected with the smelting chamber by bolts. And then the elevator controls the ingot casting chamber to lift, so that the two gate valve flange interfaces are connected or separated, and the whole gate valve group is suitable for different working conditions. The auxiliary evacuation and vacuum breaking mechanism is additionally arranged on the smelting chamber plug board valve body, and the air in the valve bank can be evacuated and vacuum broken in the closed state of the valve plate of the valve bank.
The combination of the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber and the ingot casting chamber can select one or more groups of ingot casting chambers, and when the multiple groups of ingot casting chambers are combined, the ingot casting chamber can be combined to carry out ingot pulling, and simultaneously, the ingot cooling is carried out on the other group of ingot casting chamber. Or the ingot casting chamber combination in a closed state can be subjected to early evacuation treatment, so that the time of the whole process can be greatly saved.
The lifting action when the gate valve plate of the ingot casting chamber is opened is completed through the roller elastic mechanism. The spring in the roller elastic mechanism releases elastic potential energy, so that the valve plate is jacked up. The valve plate is pressed downwards and is pushed by a cylinder rod of a hydraulic cylinder of the valve plate pressing unit. The descending action of the flashboard valve plate of the smelting chamber during working is realized through the gravity of the valve plate, and the roller guide frame unique to the flashboard valve of the smelting chamber plays a role in guiding the valve plate in the vertical direction at the moment. In addition, the roller guide frame can also carry the valve plate to move horizontally together. The flashboard valve plate of the smelting chamber is pressed upwards and is pushed by a cylinder rod of a hydraulic cylinder of the valve plate pressing unit.
Because the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber needs to bear the heat radiation of high-temperature liquid metal in a long-time melting state, the gate valve plate of the ingot casting chamber needs to be cooled by water. The valve plate of the ingot casting chamber is of a double-layer structure, a water tank is arranged between two layers of steel plates, and cooling water naturally overflows upwards in the interlayer of the valve plate and is then led out from the water tank of the upper layer of the valve plate. The valve plate is cooled by water, so that the thermal deformation of the insert plate valve plate of the ingot casting chamber in a high-temperature environment can be prevented, and the failure of the sealing performance of the rubber ring caused by the contact of the rubber ring after the valve plate is heated can be prevented. For the gate valve of the smelting chamber, the smelting chamber does not need smelting operation under the condition of sealing the valve plate, only the vacuum state of smelting needs to be kept, and the valve plate is not in a high-temperature environment, so that the water cooling of the gate valve plate of the smelting chamber is not needed. The protection casing of ingot casting room push-pull valve and smelting room push-pull valve can be in the smelting in-process whereabouts, and the pollution of the metal solution of isolated splashing to sealing rubber ring and valve body inside prevents the influence of the thermal radiation in the smelting process to the valve body simultaneously. Therefore, the protective cover is of a double-layer structure, water enters from the inner layer, water returns from the outer layer, and a cooling water channel is formed by the multi-layer discontinuous round steel in the middle of the protective cover, so that the inner wall of the protective cover is uniformly and fully cooled by water.
Ingot casting room push-pull valve plate translation unit 4: the structure comprises a gate valve plate 2 of a casting ingot chamber, a gate valve translation oil cylinder 7 of the casting ingot chamber, a gate valve translation connecting slide block 8 of the casting ingot chamber and a gate valve translation connecting seat 9 of the casting ingot chamber. The translational motion of the valve plate in the valve body is realized through the extension and contraction of the cylinder rod of the oil cylinder, the degree of freedom of the valve plate in the vertical direction is ensured by the opening structure at the upper end of the translational connecting slide block 8, and the valve plate can be translated and can be compressed and opened.
The structure of the valve plate translation unit 14 of the gate valve of the smelting chamber is similar to that of the gate valve, only the translation connecting slide block 8 structure is cancelled, and the roller guide frame guide posts 18 are used for replacing (see fig. 3), so that the valve plate (support) penetrates through the roller guide frame guide posts 18, the degree of freedom in the vertical direction of the valve plate is ensured, the valve plate can translate, and the compressing and valve opening actions can be realized.
Pressing units 5, 15: the structure comprises a compression oil cylinder 19, a cylinder rod 21, a dynamic seal 20, a valve plate support 23 and a protective cover support 22. The cylinder rod 21 and the shield bracket 22 are fixed by a thin nut, so that the shield and the cylinder rod operate together. The compression of the valve plate is controlled by the extension of the cylinder rod against the valve plate (bracket).
Ingot casting chamber push-pull valve gyro wheel elastic mechanism 6: the structure consists of a shell 27, a wheel carrier 30, a limit screw 29 and a spring 28; the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber has 4 groups of roller elastic mechanisms 6 which are respectively fixed with the valve plate (bracket) through bolts. When the valve plate is compressed, the spring 28 is compressed, and the compression force is converted into elastic potential energy; when the valve plate opens the valve, the elastic potential energy is converted into gravitational potential energy to lift the valve plate, thereby realizing the valve opening action. The limit screw ensures that the wheel carrier can move safely in the housing.
As shown in fig. 9, the protective cover is provided with a water return port 24 and a water inlet port 25; also visible are round bar breaks 26. The operation steps are as follows: step one, butting an upper gate valve and a lower gate valve of a gate valve group and evacuating a cavity: 1) and moving the ingot casting chamber to the position right below the smelting chamber to ensure that the valve ports of the upper gate valve and the lower gate valve are concentric. At the moment, the valve plates of the upper gate valve and the lower gate valve are in a closed state, and the smelting chamber and the ingot casting chamber are also in a vacuum state. (in order to save the running time of the equipment, the ingot casting chamber is evacuated in advance before the ingot casting chamber is connected with the smelting chamber because the volume of the ingot casting chamber is large).
2) The elevator starts to jack up the ingot casting chamber, so that an upper valve port valve of a gate valve of the ingot casting chamber is in butt joint with a lower valve port of a gate valve of the smelting chamber.
3) And the auxiliary evacuation equipment of the gate valve of the smelting chamber is used for evacuating the atmosphere remained in the valve group cavity, so that the vacuum degree in the cavity is basically equal to that of the ingot casting chamber and the smelting chamber.
Step two, the upper valve plate and the lower valve plate withdraw the interior of the valve body, and the assembly equipment carries out smelting and casting operation: 1) the pressing unit 5 of the ingot chamber flashboard and the pressing unit 15 of the smelting chamber flashboard retract, the valve plate 2 of the ingot chamber flashboard springs upwards under the action of the spring of the roller elastic mechanism 6, and the valve plate 12 of the smelting chamber flashboard falls down along the roller guide frame guide mechanism 16 in the vertical direction under the action of gravity.
2) The translation mechanisms 4 and 14 of the two valves in the valve group retract to drive the valve plates 2 and 12 to be recovered into the valve bodies 1 and 11.
3) The cylinder rods of the valve plate pressing mechanisms 5 and 15 extend out again to drive the protective covers 3 and 13 to move towards the valve ports, so that the protective covers 3 and 13 completely cover the valve port sealing rubber rings, and meanwhile, the protective covers 3 and 13 realize the isolation of the valve ports from the interior of the cavity.
4) The translation connecting seat 9 of the gate valve plate 2 of the ingot casting chamber is in bolt connection with the translation connecting slide block 8, and the opening at the upper end of the translation connecting seat 9 enables the valve plate to have a certain degree of freedom when moving in the vertical direction.
5) The smelting chamber gate valve plate 2 is connected with a smelting chamber gate valve roller guide frame 16 through guide posts 18 on the guide frame, so that the valve plate has certain degree of freedom when moving in the vertical direction.
6) At this point, the smelting operation can proceed.
Step three, sealing the valve group, and separating the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber from the gate valve of the smelting chamber when the internal and external pressures of the cavity are equal: 1) after the smelting is finished, the cylinder rods of the pressing mechanisms 5 and 15 retract, the inner protective cover 3 of the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber moves upwards, and the protective cover 13 of the gate valve of the smelting chamber falls.
2) The translation mechanism 4, 14 extends the cylinder rod to push the valve plate 2, 12 to a position concentric with the valve port. The cylinder rods of the pressing mechanisms 5 and 15 extend out to tightly push the valve plates 2 and 12 to press the rubber rings for sealing. The smelting chamber and the ingot casting chamber become relatively independent vacuum cavities again.
3) And opening a vacuum breaking mechanism 17 of the gate valve of the smelting chamber to ensure that the atmospheric pressure inside and outside the valve group cavity is equal. Then the elevator drives the ingot casting chamber to descend, and the gate valve of the ingot casting chamber is separated from the gate valve of the smelting chamber.
4) The whole ingot casting chamber is translated to other stations, and the metal ingot in the ingot casting chamber is continuously cooled. And simultaneously moving into a new ingot chamber component to carry out smelting in a new furnace.
In the process, the valve plate of the plug board valve body of the ingot casting chamber needs to be continuously cooled by water, so that the valve plate is prevented from being heated and conducting heat to the rubber ring by liquid metal heat radiation, and the sealing performance of the rubber ring after being heated is enabled to be invalid.
