Description

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to the field of descaling device for hot rolled slab, in particular to a dry-type descaling device for hot rolled slab.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

Casting blank has scales existing on surface after being heated by reheating furnace and before being transferred into a rolling mill, and the scales are need to be duly removed on-line. The main difficulties in surface descaling are as follows: 1. The surface temperature of the casting blanks is very high, that is, between 1100□ and 1250□, and the oxide layer thereof is so thick that it is hard to clean them clearly by existing methods; 2. Adhesivity between scales generated on surface of continuous-casting blanks such as stainless steel, silicon steel, iron-nickel alloy and the continuous-casting blank body is too strong to clean only by high-pressure water; 3. Hot rolling production line is sensitive to temperature of the blanks, and increasing amount of water may result in larger temperature drop of the continuous casting blank, which is harmful to the follow-up rolling.

The current common type of descaling is to clear the scales on the surface away by high-pressure water of more than 18 MPa, i.e. high-pressure water descaling. This type of descaling has the following disadvantages: 1. A large quantity of water is needed, and the temperature of the surface of the continuous-casting blanks drops sharply, which causes edge cracks on many high alloy products during the follow-up rolling; 2. High-pressure water descaling utilizes nozzles, and it is usual that the scales are not obliterated clearly, thereby resulting in that scales are pressed into the blank during follow-up rolling; 3. For high alloy steel (such as silicon steel, stainless steel, iron-nickel alloy), high-pressure water cannot clear non-ferric oxides (silicon oxide, chromic oxide, nickel oxide and the like), which substantially affects the surface quality of these products.

SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

The technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is to provide an impact type mechanical descaling device for hot rolled slab, which utilizes rotational centrifugal tooth plate groups to knock the surface of a continuous-casting blank so as to separate scales therefrom, then utilizes low-medium pressure water to obliterate away the separated scales, which can clear away scales on the continuous-casting blanks of all kinds of steels, and make little impact on the temperature of the slab surface, thereby improving the hot rolling quality.

The objective of the present disclosure is achieved by an impact type descaling device for hot rolled slab, which includes a front cooling water nozzle group, impact descaling gear roller groups, a roller cooling device and a cleaning water nozzle group; a slab moves on a slab roller table; the front cooling water nozzle group, the impact descaling gear roller group and the cleaning water nozzle group are arranged in sequence in the moving direction of the slab; the impact type descaling gear roller group is mounted on a support seat, and the cooling water nozzles of the roller gear cooling device are provided corresponding to the impact type descaling gear roller groups.

The impact descaling gear roller group includes a main shaft, fixed plates, a descaling gear assembly shaft and a descaling gear group; there is one pair of fixed plates, which are fixed on the two sides of the main shaft; between the pair of fixation plates there are disposed with a plurality of descaling gear assembly shafts in a ring array with center at central-axis of the main shaft; the descaling gear group consists of a row of descaling gears which are mounted in sequence on the descaling gear assembly shaft.

There is a gap between each descaling gear and the descaling gear assembly shaft as the inner diameter of the former is 3˜30 mm greater than the outer diameter of the latter.

The descaling device further includes a hot slab thickness measurement device which is disposed upstream of the front cooling water nozzle group, and a height adjustment device through which the impact type descaling gear roller group is mounted on the support seat.

There are two pairs of impact type descaling gear roller groups, between which a scale scraps cleaning water nozzle group is disposed.

The present disclosure, i.e. the impact type descaling device for hot rolled slab, utilizes rotational centrifugal tooth plate groups to knock the surface of a continuous-casting blank so as to separate scales from the continuous-casting blank, then utilizes low-medium pressure water to obliterate away the separated scales, which can clear away scales of the continuous-casting blank of all kinds of steels. It can also be utilized to descale on the surface of square blanks and is particularly suitable for stainless steel and iron-nickel alloy continuous-casting blanks, on the surface of which scales are difficult to clear away. Moreover, it can substantially reduce the temperature drop of the continuous-casting blanks, laying a foundation for the follow-up rolling. The present disclosure is small in volume, and can be mounted before the high-pressure water descaling box of the existing hot rolling production line, or on the new hot rolling line. Compared with the existing high-pressure water descaling, it can not only guarantee the cleanness of the descaled surface of the slab, but also save a large quantity of water—the water consumption is about 1/10 that of high-pressure water descaling. Furthermore, the present disclosure reduces energy consumption greatly and has little impact on the temperature of the slab surface, thereby improving the hot rolling quality.

A slab 1 moves on a slab roller table 3. The front cooling water nozzle group 4, the impact type descaling gear roller group 5 and the cleaning water nozzle group 7 are arranged in sequence in the moving direction of the slab 1. The impact descaling gear roller group 5 is mounted on a support seat 8, and the cooling water nozzles of the roller gear cooling device 6 are provided corresponding to the impact descaling gear roller groups 5. In this embodiment, there are two pairs of impact type descaling gear roller groups 5, between which a scale scraps cleaning water nozzle group 9 is disposed.

As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the present disclosure is further described below. The impact descaling gear roller group 5 includes a main shaft 51, fixed plates 52, a descaling gear assembly shaft 53 and a descaling gear group 54. There is one pair of fixed plates 52, which are fixed on the two sides of the main shaft 51. Between the pair of fixed plates 52 there are disposed with a plurality of descaling gear assembly shafts 53 in a ring array with a center at central-axis of the main shaft 51. The descaling gear group 54 consists of a row of descaling pinions which are mounted in series on the descaling gear assembly shaft 53. There is a gap between each descaling gear and the descaling gear assembly shaft 53 as the inner diameter of the former is 3˜30 mm greater than the outer diameter of the latter. Moreover, the descaling gear is made of heat-resistant and wear-resistant alloy steels.

To improve the adaptability of the present disclosure, the descaling device further includes a hot slab thickness measurement device 2 which is disposed upstream of the front cooling water nozzle group 4, and a height adjustment device 81 through which the impact descaling gear roller group 5 is mounted on the support seat 8.

As shown in FIG. 2, the impact type descaling gear roller group 5 is mounted at an angle α with the moving direction of the slab 1, wherein α is 15°˜90°.

The impact descaling gear roller group 5 is driven by motors. The descaling gear teeth are made of heat-resistant and wear-resistant alloy steel. Before the hot slab 1 is conveyed through the slab roller table 3 to the descaling device of the present disclosure, the hot slab thickness measurement device 2 measures out the actual thickness of the hot slab, and according to the thickness, the height adjustment device 81 adjusts the distance between the impact descaling gear roller group 5 and the slab 1; then the scales on the surface of the hot slab 1 is cooled by the front cooling water nozzle group 4 with spraying water of 0.2˜2.0 MPa; subsequently, the hot slab 1 is descaled by a first impact descaling gear roller group 5—the scales 10 on the surface of the slab 1 is knocked, broken and planed away from the surface of the slab 1 by the descaling gears; and the scale scraps are obliterated away by the cleaning water nozzle group 9. The slab 1 is descaled again by a second impact descaling gear roller group 5, that is, the scales on the surface thereof not yet being cleared by the first impact descaling gear roller group 5 are obliterated.
