Definitions
- the invention relates to a three-phase electric arc heating device for pans or ladle furnaces for treating and refining molten iron, in particular steel melts, with three electrodes which can be lowered by the lid, which are held by a holder fastened to a vertically movable guide column by means of a carrying device and are connected to one phase of each via current leads Three-phase network of a furnace transformer are connected.
- the ladle furnace is an additional unit. This places increased demands on energy consumption, space requirements, the weight and handling of the ladle furnace.
- the disadvantage of this embodiment is on the one hand the use of three electrode lifting columns and three support arms.
- Each support arm in turn requires its own hydraulic drive system, each with its own electronic control.
- the support arms are arranged in parallel on one level.
- a complex coplanar balancing is required for the carrying arms which are designed to carry current here.
- a heating device which has a support device (support) which can be moved vertically on a guide column and on which electrodes are arranged in a positionally variable manner at the head end. Except for a schematic drawing, the type of current supply is not apparent from this document.
- FR-A-1 569 521 shows a widespread form of the support device in which the individual electrodes are arranged on independent support arms and the power tubes are guided on the side pointing away from the furnace vessel. The guidance of these flow tubes is designed depending on the arrangement of the three support arms.
- a melting furnace which has a support arm for each electrode.
- the power supply and discharge lines are arranged parallel to these support arms.
- the object of the invention is to simplify the construction of an arc heating device of the generic type and to reduce the inductances and the reactance asymmetry to a minimum by constructive measures.
- the three electrodes are attached to a common support arm. This advantageously means that two support arms and the associated guide columns, hydraulic drives and electrical controls can be dispensed with.
- Another advantage lies in the fact that the only arm that now carries the electrodes can be designed constructively, since neither structural nor electrical influences arise from the previously required neighboring arms. In terms of weight, the electrode support arm device becomes lighter and thus exerts a positive influence on the hall construction of the steelworks with regard to the load capacity.
- a single electrode support arm is easier to handle because only one column with a support arm can be pivoted freely.
- the advantage here is that by using only one support arm, the function "carrying” and the function "current carrying” can be solved separately in order to then optimally match them.
- the cross section of the support arm can be designed arbitrarily and one have box-shaped, tubular or triangular cross-section as well as mixed forms of the above-mentioned cross-sections.
- Tubes or rails are suitable as current-carrying elements. These can be provided with cooling without hindering other elements.
- the arrangement of the power supply can be arranged in an isosceles triangular manner in an advantageous manner.
- the arrangement of the electrodes on the head of the support arm is carried out in such a way that the asymmetry of the reactance is minimized and at the same time is simply held with the smallest possible pitch circle of the electrodes.
- An advantageous embodiment is the arrangement of two electrodes between the center axis of the furnace and the guide column. This arrangement makes it possible to use three electrode holders of the same design. In addition, the length of the power supply can be equalized without major additional effort.
- Figure 1 shows the furnace 20 with the furnace center axis 11. Coaxially to the furnace, the guide column 2 is arranged, on which the support arm 1 is attached. At the head of the support arm 1, the electrodes 9 are held by means of brackets 8. Current cables (15-17) lead from the transformer 50, which is arranged in the construction 30 of the steelworks, to the current leads (5-7).
- FIGS. 2 and 3 show the couplings 12 and 13, which releasably connect the power cables 15-17 to the transformer 50 and to the power tubes 5-7.
- FIG. 2 shows an arrangement of the electrodes 91-93, in which an electrode 91 in the long center plane 10, which intersects the furnace center axis 11 and the column 2 in the middle and is arranged on the side of the furnace center plane 110 facing the support column 2, and the electrodes 92, 93 are arranged at the end of the head of the support arm 1, the electrodes 91-93 concentrically forming an isosceles triangle, which are arranged with respect to the furnace center axis 11.
- the electrode 91 is arranged on the longitudinal center plane 10 leading away from the support column 2 from the furnace center plane 110.
- the electrodes 91-93 are held on the support arm head 1 by the holders 81-83.
- Figures 4 to 6 each show a cross section through the support arm and the power supply.
- the support arm is rectangular, round or triangular.
- the power supply lines are tubular.
- the tubes are parallel to the support arm and form an isosceles triangle with the center in the area of the center of gravity of the support arm surface.
- FIG. 7 shows the schematic of the isosceles triangular guidance of the power supply elements, consisting of the power cables 15 - 17 and the power supplies 5 - 7. From the transformer 50 to the electrode tip 9, the path that the current must travel is of the same length. The same path length is achieved in that loops 51 and 61 are provided in the transition from the power supply lines 6 and 7 to the electrodes 92, 93, which have the same length as the power supply part 71 of the power supply line 7.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine dreiphasige Lichtbogenheizvorrichtung für Pfannen oder Pfannenöfen zum Behandeln und Raffinieren von Eisenschmelzen, insbesondere Stahlschmelzen, mit drei durch den Deckel absenkbaren Elektroden, die von einer mittels einer Tragvorrichtung an einer vertikal beweglichen Führungssäule befestigten Halterung gehalten und über Stromzuführungen an je eine Phase des Drehstromnetzes eines Ofentransformators angeschlossen sind.The invention relates to a three-phase electric arc heating device for pans or ladle furnaces for treating and refining molten iron, in particular steel melts, with three electrodes which can be lowered by the lid, which are held by a holder fastened to a vertically movable guide column by means of a carrying device and are connected to one phase of each via current leads Three-phase network of a furnace transformer are connected.
Es ist bekannt, bei der Herstellung von Stahl Pfannenöfen einzusetzen. Beim Pfannenofenprozeß kann ein Teil der metallurgischen Arbeit in die Pfanne verlegt werden, wobei das Legieren bestimmter Elemente unter nichtoxidierenden Bedingungen erfolgen kann. Gleichzeitig lassen sich die Abstichtemperaturen senken. Insgesamt kann also in Stahlwerken über den Pfannenofenprozeß eine Produktivitätssteigerung erzielt werden.It is known to use ladle furnaces in the manufacture of steel. In the ladle furnace process, part of the metallurgical work can be carried out in the ladle, whereby the alloying of certain elements can take place under non-oxidizing conditions. At the same time, the tapping temperatures can be reduced. Overall, an increase in productivity can thus be achieved in steel plants via the ladle furnace process.
Der Pfannenofen stellt neben den Transporteinrichtungen, die die Pfanne in die Behandlungsposition befördern, ein zusätzliches Aggregat dar. Somit werden an den Energieverbrauch, den Platzbedarf, das Eigengewicht und die Handhabung der Pfannenofen erhöhte Forderungen gestellt.In addition to the transport devices that move the pan to the treatment position, the ladle furnace is an additional unit. This places increased demands on energy consumption, space requirements, the weight and handling of the ladle furnace.
Aus "Fachberichte Hüttenpraxis Metallverarbeitung, Vol. 24, Nr. 10, 1986, Seite 940" ist ein Pfannenofen mit drei Tragarmen bekannt.A ladle furnace with three support arms is known from "Technical reports metallurgical practice metal processing, Vol. 24, No. 10, 1986, page 940".
Nachteil dieser Ausführungsform ist zum einen der Einsatz von drei Elektrodenhubsäulen und drei Tragarmen. Jeder Tragarm erfordert wiederum ein eigenes hydraulisches Antriebssystem jeweils mit eigener elektronischer Ansteuerung. Die Tragarme sind parallel geführt in einer Ebene angeordnet. Zur Verringerung der elektrischen Verluste und zum Ausgleich der Reaktanzunsymmetrie ist für die hier stromführend ausgeführten Tragarme eine aufwendige koplanare Symmetrierung erforderlich.The disadvantage of this embodiment is on the one hand the use of three electrode lifting columns and three support arms. Each support arm in turn requires its own hydraulic drive system, each with its own electronic control. The support arms are arranged in parallel on one level. In order to reduce the electrical losses and to compensate for the reactance asymmetry, a complex coplanar balancing is required for the carrying arms which are designed to carry current here.
Aus FR-A-523 709 ist eine Heizvorrichtung bekannt, die eine Tragvorrichtung (Support) aufweist, die an einer Führungssäule vertikal werfahrbar ist, und an der kopfendig Elektroden in ihrer Lage veränderbar angeordnet sind. Die Stromführungsart ist der vorliegenden Schrift, bis auf eine Schemazeichnung, nicht zu entnehmen.From FR-A-523 709 a heating device is known which has a support device (support) which can be moved vertically on a guide column and on which electrodes are arranged in a positionally variable manner at the head end. Except for a schematic drawing, the type of current supply is not apparent from this document.
Aus US-A-3 395 238 ist ein Elektrolichtbogen bekannt, bei dem drei Elektroden über je einen Tragarm mit einer Führungssäule verbunden sind. Die einzelnen Elektroden weisen jeweils eine Stromzu- und -rückführung auf, die konzentrisch zueinander angeordnet sind.From US-A-3 395 238 an electric arc is known in which three electrodes are each connected to a guide column via a support arm. The individual electrodes each have a current feed and return, which are arranged concentrically to one another.
Aus FR-A-1 569 521 ist eine weit verbreitete Form der Tragvorrichtung aufgezeigt, bei der die einzelnen Elektroden an unabhängigen Tragarmen angeordnet sind und die Stromrohre auf der vom Ofengefäß wegweisenden Seite geführt werden. Die Führung dieser Stromrohre ist in Abhängigkeit mit der Anordnung der drei Tragarme ausgestaltet.FR-A-1 569 521 shows a widespread form of the support device in which the individual electrodes are arranged on independent support arms and the power tubes are guided on the side pointing away from the furnace vessel. The guidance of these flow tubes is designed depending on the arrangement of the three support arms.
Aus DE-C-929 864 ist eine Leitungsführung für Drehstromlichtbogenofen bekannt, bei der die Anschlußleitungen aus drei konzentrisch ineinandergeschachtelten Hohlkörpern gebildet werden. Jede Elektrode besitzt somit einen eigenen stromführenden Tragarm.From DE-C-929 864 a line for a three-phase arc furnace is known, in which the connecting lines are formed from three concentrically nested hollow bodies. Each electrode therefore has its own current-carrying arm.
Aus FR-A- 1 502 277 ist ein Schmelzofen bekannt, der je Elektrode einen Tragarm aufweist. Parallel zu diesen Tragarmen sind die Stromzuführ- und -ableitungen angeordnet.From FR-A-1 502 277 a melting furnace is known which has a support arm for each electrode. The power supply and discharge lines are arranged parallel to these support arms.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Lichtbogenheizvorrichtung gattungsgemäßer Art baulich zu vereinfachen und durch konstruktive Maßnahmen die Induktivitäten sowie die Reaktanzunsymmetrie auf ein Minimum zu verringern.The object of the invention is to simplify the construction of an arc heating device of the generic type and to reduce the inductances and the reactance asymmetry to a minimum by constructive measures.
Die der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale.The object on which the invention is based is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of
Erfindungsgemäß sind die drei Elektroden an einem gemeinsamen Tragarm befestigt. In vorteilhafter Weise kann dadurch auf zwei Tragarme und die dazu gehörenden Führungssäulen, hydraulischen Antriebe und elektrischen Ansteuerungen verzichtet werden.According to the invention, the three electrodes are attached to a common support arm. This advantageously means that two support arms and the associated guide columns, hydraulic drives and electrical controls can be dispensed with.
Ein weiterer Vorteil liegt darin, daß der nunmehr einzige, die Elektroden tragende Arm konstruktiv augestaltet werden kann, da weder bauliche noch elektrische Beeinflussungen durch die bisher erforderlichen Nachbararme auftreten. Gewichtsmäßig wird die Elektrodentragarmeinrichtung leichter und übt damit positiven Einfluß auf die Hallenkonstruktion des Stahlwerkes bezüglich der Belastbarkeit aus.Another advantage lies in the fact that the only arm that now carries the electrodes can be designed constructively, since neither structural nor electrical influences arise from the previously required neighboring arms. In terms of weight, the electrode support arm device becomes lighter and thus exerts a positive influence on the hall construction of the steelworks with regard to the load capacity.
Außerdem ist ein einzelner Elektrodentragarm leichter handhabbar, da nur eine Säule mit einem Tragarm ungehindert schwenkbar ist.In addition, a single electrode support arm is easier to handle because only one column with a support arm can be pivoted freely.
Durch den Einsatz nur eines Tragarmes besteht die Möglichkeit, die Stromzuführungen vom Transformator bis zu den Elektroden unter Berücksichtigung möglicher elektrischer Verluste zu führen.By using only one arm, it is possible to route the power supply from the transformer to the electrodes, taking into account possible electrical losses.
Von Vorteil ist dabei, daß durch den Einsatz nur eines Tragarmes konstruktiv die Funktion "Tragen" und die Funktion "Stromführen" getrennt gelost werden können, um sie dann optimal aufeinander abzustimmen. Der Querschnitt des Tragarmes kann dabei beliebig gestaltet werden und einen kasten-, rohr- oder dreiecksförmigen Querschnitt sowie Mischformen der o. g. Querschnitte aufweisen.The advantage here is that by using only one support arm, the function "carrying" and the function "current carrying" can be solved separately in order to then optimally match them. The cross section of the support arm can be designed arbitrarily and one have box-shaped, tubular or triangular cross-section as well as mixed forms of the above-mentioned cross-sections.
Als stromführende Elemente bieten sich Rohre oder Schienen an. Diese können ohne Behinderung anderer Elemente mit einer Kühlung versehen werden. In vorteilhafter Weise ist die Anordnung der Stromzuführung gleichschenklig dreieckförmig anordnenbar.Tubes or rails are suitable as current-carrying elements. These can be provided with cooling without hindering other elements. The arrangement of the power supply can be arranged in an isosceles triangular manner in an advantageous manner.
Die Anordnung der Elektroden am Kopf des Tragarmes wird in der Form ausgeführt, daß die Reaktanzunsymmetrie minimiert wird und gleichzeitig bei kleinstmöglichem Teilkreis der Elektroden einfach gehaltert werden.The arrangement of the electrodes on the head of the support arm is carried out in such a way that the asymmetry of the reactance is minimized and at the same time is simply held with the smallest possible pitch circle of the electrodes.
Eine vorteilhafte Ausführungsform ist die Anordnung von zwei Elektroden zwischen der Ofenmittenachse und der Führungssäule. Durch diese Anordnung besteht die Möglichkeit des Einsatzes dreier gleichgestalteter Elektrodenhalterungen. Darüber hinaus kann ohne größeren Mehraufwand die Länge der Stromzuführungen egalisiert werden.An advantageous embodiment is the arrangement of two electrodes between the center axis of the furnace and the guide column. This arrangement makes it possible to use three electrode holders of the same design. In addition, the length of the power supply can be equalized without major additional effort.
Durch den Einsatz nur eines Tragarmes besteht weiterhin die Möglichkeit, die flexiblen Stromzuführungen (Stromseile) nahezu parallel zu führen und dabei gleichschenklig dreiecksförmig anzuordnen.By using only one support arm, there is also the option of routing the flexible power supply lines (power cables) almost parallel and thereby arranging them isosceles triangular.

The support arm is rectangular, round or triangular. The power supply lines are tubular. The tubes are parallel to the support arm and form an isosceles triangle with the center in the area of the center of gravity of the support arm surface.

Von dem Transformator 50 aus bis zur Elektrodenspitze 9 ist der Weg, den der Strom zurücklegen muß, gleich lang. Die gleiche Weglänge wird dadurch erreicht, daß im Übergang von den Stromzuführungen 6 und 7 zu den Elektroden 92, 93 Schleifen 51 und 61 vorgesehen sind, die die gleiche Länge aufweisen, wie der Stromzuführungsteil 71 der Stromzuführung 7.FIG. 7 shows the schematic of the isosceles triangular guidance of the power supply elements, consisting of the power cables 15 - 17 and the power supplies 5 - 7.
