Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pyrometallurgical system, in particular a steelworks system, comprising at least one metallurgical vessel with a housing, at least one loading platform and at least one loading door system with which a loading opening and/or an emptying opening in the housing can be closed.
  • the invention also relates to a loading door system for a pyrometallurgical system, for example for a steelworks system, with at least one metallurgical vessel with a housing which has a loading opening and with at least one loading platform.
  • loading gate systems of converter steelworks have the task of protecting the environment and the personnel from heat, smoke gases, slag and steel spatter.
  • Loading gates are known in the prior art, which are supported and movable on a rail system of a loading platform or on a structure of the platform edge near the converter.
  • stage edge structure reduces the space available to service the converter.
  • a structure also interferes with loading the converter with the pig iron ladle, since its lower edge is often close to the platform surface when the ladle is guided to the converter hanging on a crane.
  • the process of loading gates on a rail system has the disadvantage that the rail system in the vicinity of the converter is susceptible to dirt and represents a source of danger and tripping hazards.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a system with a loading door system that requires little maintenance and is less susceptible to faults than the known systems.
  • the invention is also based on the object of providing a corresponding loading door system for such a system.
  • One aspect of the invention relates to a pyrometallurgical system with at least one metallurgical vessel in a housing, at least one loading platform and at least one loading door system, with which a loading opening and/or an emptying opening in the housing can be closed, the loading door system having at least one loading door leaf which is suspended on a carrier and which can be moved on the carrier, the carrier being held by a frame arranged in a stationary manner on the loading platform.
  • the pyrometallurgical plant can be designed as a steelworks plant, for example.
  • the skilled reader will recognize that the configuration of the Plant is not critical to the invention.
  • the pyrometallurgical vessel can be a converter, for example.
  • the frame can be designed in such a way that the support of the carrier on the loading platform is outside the loading area, i. H. is arranged outside the loading opening and/or the emptying opening.
  • a loading door which can for example have dimensions of 10 ⁇ 5 m and a relatively high weight of up to 20 t, can be securely supported on the loading platform.
  • the suspension on the support makes it possible to move the guidance of the loading gate leaf to an area that is less prone to contamination.
  • the construction according to the invention has the advantage that the loading platform can be designed without rails and without other structures in the area of the loading opening.
  • the solution according to the invention has the advantage that fewer disruptions occur when the loading gates are in operation. Significantly less and simpler cleaning work is required on the loading platform. Rails and wheels of the loading gate system have a longer service life. On the loading gate platform in the middle of the housing there is more space for maintenance work on the vessel or inside the housing, for example to replace the heat protection provided there. In addition, the safety for the personnel of the steel plant is improved, in particular because the charging gate system can be operated more reliably, so that the vessel is not operated with the gates open.
  • the loading door system expediently comprises two loading door wings, which are preferably designed to close against one another in one plane.
  • the loading gate leaves may be hung such that they are hung at a lower clearance from the loading floor so that there is a larger gap below the loading door wings between them and the loading floor, thereby ensuring that any slag accumulation on the loading floor does not impede accessibility to the loading door wings .
  • the loading gate system comprises a gate apron which closes a larger space between the loading gate leaves and the loading platform.
  • This essentially three-part design of the loading gate system has the advantage that the loading gate wings can be somewhat smaller and lighter, so that the suspension of the loading gate wings has to absorb lower loads.
  • the gate apron can be designed in such a way that it can be removed if necessary, so that the loading opening can be enlarged if necessary.
  • the gate apron forms a sliding guide and lower support for the loading gate wings.
  • the gate apron can be hung in fork-shaped receptacles on the frame, for example by means of pins.
  • the gate apron can be designed in such a way that it can be brought into the installation position by means of a crane or the same lifting gear.
  • the gate apron can be designed and arranged in such a way that it can be folded onto the loading platform.
  • the gate apron can have at least one opening for taking samples or inspecting the interior of the converter housing.
  • the carrier has a profile which forms at least one track for at least one support wheel of at least one loading gate leaf.
  • the loading gate system can have at least one travel drive, which includes at least one driven support wheel.
  • the lane expediently forms a guide for the at least one support wheel.
  • the at least one loading gate leaf has at least one upper and one lower support wheel, which are arranged at a distance from one another in the direction of travel on opposite sides of the center of mass of the loading gate leaf, so that the carrier can be used in an advantageous manner and Way forms a torque support for the loading gate leaf in question.
  • At least one support wheel can include at least one wheel flange that interacts with a guide profile of the lane.
  • one or more upper support wheels each have two wheel flanges, which interact with a rectangular guide profile of the lane arranged on top of the carrier.
  • the invention further relates to a loading door system for a pyrometallurgical plant, for example for a steel works, with at least one metallurgical vessel with a housing, for example with a converter with a housing which has a loading opening and with at least one loading platform, the loading door system at least comprises a loading gate leaf which is supported in a suspended manner on a carrier and which is traversable on the carrier, wherein the Carrier is supported on a fixed frame arranged on the loading platform.
  • the loading gate system preferably comprises two loading gate wings which can be closed or opened in relation to one another in one plane.
  • the loading gate system preferably comprises two frames which are arranged at a distance from one another in an opening and closing plane and which are each supported on the loading platform outside the loading opening.
  • the loading gate system preferably includes one or more of the features described above in connection with the pyrometallurgical system.
  • the embodiment shown in the figures illustrates a loading gate system 1 in a converter steelworks.
  • the loading door system 1 is part of the steel plant, not shown, which has at least one converter, a housing for the converter and a loading opening 2, which is selectively released or closed by the loading door system 1.
  • the loading gate system 1 comprises two frames 3, which are arranged on both sides of the loading opening of the housing, not shown, on a loading platform 4.
  • the loading gate system 1 further comprises two loading gate wings 5 which are each supported hanging on a carrier 6 of a frame 3 .
  • the frames 3 are set up at a distance from one another in an opening and closing plane of the loading gate system 1 in such a way that they are arranged on both sides of the loading opening 2 in such a way that the loading opening 2 is not covered. In this opening and closing plane, the frames 3 are aligned in such a way that the supports 6 are arranged in alignment with one another.
  • Each of the carrier 6 is designed as a so-called mobile carrier, i. H.
  • Each carrier 6 has a track 7 on its upper front side for a support wheel 9 of a loading gate leaf 5.
  • FIG 4 shows the frames 3 arranged opposite one another at a distance from one another in the opening and closing plane, without the loading gate wings 5 suspended on them.
  • the frames 3 each comprise vertical supports 11 which accommodate the beam 6 extending in the opening and closing plane of the loading gate 1 (in the X-axis).
  • the supports 11 each form a three-point support, with two supports 11 being provided on each frame 3 on the side facing the loading opening 2, whereas only one support 11 is provided on the side facing away from the loading opening 2 in the opening and closing plane.
  • each frame 3 is provided with a horizontal support 8, which counteracts the forces that may occur in the Z-axis.
  • the loading gate wings 5 each comprise four support wheels 9, namely two upper support wheels 9 and two lower support wheels 9. One of the upper support wheels 9 is driven in each case.
  • the associated travel drive is provided with the reference number 10 .
  • the upper support wheels 9 are each provided with two wheel flanges which interact with a profile strip of the lane 7 on the top of the carrier 6.
  • the lower support wheels 9 rest against the underside of the carrier 6 and catch any tilting moment of the loading gate wings 5 that occurs.
  • An upper support wheel 9 and a lower support wheel 9 are expediently arranged on both sides at a distance from a center of mass of a loading gate leaf 5 in such a way that they reliably counteract a tilting moment of the loading gate leaf 5 in question.
  • the travel path of the loading gate leaf 5 is expediently limited by means of limit switches and/or stops.
  • loading gate system 1 shown also includes two loading gate wings 5 and also a gate apron 12, one The space between the loading gate wings 5 and the loading platform 4 is concealed and forms a lower guide for the loading gate wings 5 .
