Description

Device for continually measuring thickness of sludge layer on molten metal
The present invention relates to a kind of by a device from the lip-deep thickness of slag layer of molten metal to the sensor device of slag blanket apparent motion that can intermittently measure.Used sensor device can join with at least one evaluation device and send corresponding characteristic signal at each layer to be measured.
The device of this common general knowledge is applied to Metal Melting.Limited by smelting technology, in the process of various blown metals, the nonmetal composition that wherein contains accumulates on the surface of metallic solution, and forms at this place and to make liquation avoid atmospheric effect and avoid the heat excessive loss, viscous or solid-state slag blanket.
In order to measure the thickness of slag layer relevant with the Metal Melting method step, different devices is disclosed:
DE 3641987 A1 disclose the device of the thickness of slag layer in a kind of definite molten metal, have used a kind of support of spear structure in this measurement mechanism.Be provided with a backdrop detector on this support, this detector and an antenna join, and this antenna obtains near the electrical network backdrop the antenna.When spear slipped in molten metal, the hum meaurement device was measured the transition of air/slag, and an induction pick-up sends signal when the interlayer that reaches between slag and the liquation.In order therefrom to obtain thickness of slag layer, resulting signal must add the continuous coverage that involves stroke, the thickness of slag layer measurement mechanism is connected with the stroke measuring device of outside, and this has damaged the dirigibility of measurement mechanism, particularly can't adopt the spear of manual mode handle structure.
Disclose a kind of device of measuring slag critical layer level height in the molten metal among DE 3832763 A1, this device building is being measured on the principle of impedance variation by an impedance circuit.Impedance circuit and an oscillator and a measuring staff or a measuring staff feed cable link to each other.The frequency of operation of oscillator is different from mains frequency.Measure impedance variation by a lock detector.When the output signal of lock detector surmount one predetermined, when attaching troops to a unit in corresponding interfacial circuit, corresponding ultimate value circuit just generates a signal.This signal indication, measuring staff are in a corresponding interfacial definite distance of distance.When using this device, also can only under the situation that involves additional, continuous stroke measurment, just can try to achieve thickness of slag layer.Except that this shortcoming of dirigibility of above-mentioned infringement measurement mechanism, this disclosed device also requires to have accurate especially speed stability, because spacing and speed are very big to the influence of measurement result.
JP-A-61212702 discloses a kind of device in order to the spear structure of measuring thickness of slag layer, and this device slips into molten metal with an electrode that is contained on the rifle head.Wherein, between the cupola well of electrode and liquation, impedance changes in air/slag zone of transition and slag/molten metal zone of transition.These impedance variation are by ultimate value circuit evaluation and must add the continuous coverage relevant with stroke again, so that therefrom obtain thickness of slag layer.
EP 0421828 A1 discloses a kind of method with continuously definite lip-deep liquid slag layer thickness of molten metal of usefulness, wherein, and with a level sensor continuous coverage that fixedly installs and the spacing of molten surface.Wherein, by an adjustable guidance device isothermal piece is fixed on the transition bed of powder/liquid slag.Wherein, guidance device needs a stroke measuring device of trying to achieve the position of isothermal piece, so that obtain thickness of slag layer from the difference of the measurement result of two measurement mechanisms.The continuous independent measurement of carrying out is in this way Duoed than the interrupted time of measuring cost and has been quickened the wearing and tearing of isothermal piece.In addition, the still need mobile device of the costliness that has stroke measuring device and isothermal piece regulating device.
The common drawback of disclosed already said apparatus or method is, measuring needs expensive mobile device and need be in order to the device that shift motion is accurately measured.Therefore, under the situation that possesses the corresponding mobile device, need be equipped with the shift motion measurement mechanism at least.
At last, JP-A-02247539 also discloses a kind of in order to measure the device of thickness of slag layer, and this device not necessarily needs a stroke measuring device.This device has a spear, is provided with a nozzle on the termination of rifle, sprays inert gas from this nozzle.Obtain the concrete speed that exists with a pressure transducer and hold up power.A little increased and suddenly raise at slag/molten metal transition position this pressure at air/slag transition position before this.Under the situation of considering concrete slag density, obtain thickness of slag layer between the two the pressure differential when entering molten metal when entering slag., this measuring principle only has feasibility to the slag of viscous.Nonetheless, speed holds up the influence that power not only is subjected to the density of slag, but also is slipped into the influence of the degree of depth, and is subjected to the influence of viscosity fluctuation, in slag blanket, all may exist this adhesive tape degree to fluctuate by liquid state until solid-state.Another shortcoming of this device is, can not accurately detect zone of transition and can not measure thin slag blanket actually.Under the situation of stroke measuring device not, the speed that slips into is wanted slow and must be kept constant because otherwise might discern do not slag tap and molten metal between transition.
Task of the present invention is that the device that a kind of this paper is begun described type improves like this, can guarantee that thickness of slag layer is measured reliably with few equipment investment, and particularly the measuring accuracy of thickness of slag layer and mobile device and shift motion are measured all irrelevant.
According to the present invention, the technical scheme that solves above task be a kind of have the feature in the characteristic of claim 1, listed, claim 1 before chat the device of the described type of part.
Under the situation of shift motion of not considering at all just need not know or translational speed, can measure the lip-deep thickness of slag layer of molten metal by sensor device of the present invention.The special reason that why can accomplish this point is that at least one sensor is the electromagnetic sensor structure, and this sensor generates a distance signal to one of layer interphase.With other sensor that when arriving one of layer, sends simple signal (as connection signal), in the moment that the connection signal notice arrives other layer distance signal is carried out evaluation by the evaluation device, can directly measure thickness.
Sensor device can comprise different or identical sensor, and these sensors have different or identical action principle.
According to a particularly advantageous form of implementation of the present invention, sensor device comprises at least two sensors, wherein, uses first sensor, and promptly electromagnetic sensor can generate a signal of determining this sensor to the concrete spacing of molten metal.Can generate a signal with slag blanket at a distance of the distance of a qualification with second sensor.When second sensor generates an expression apart from the signal of the qualification distance of slag blanket, can carry out evaluation to the signal of first sensor with the evaluation device.
At sensor device when the slag blanket, the penetrable slag blanket of sensor device.
If preferably vertically to the sensor device of molten metal apparent motion under the situation of an angle of skew to the molten metal apparent motion, then can obtain this angular error and can be in simple mode in order to signal is revised.
According to another form of implementation of the present invention, a sensor is the acceleration sensor structure, in order to can send a signal when sensor device arrives the superiors.
This form of implementation can be measured the big thickness of slag layer of glutinousness scope.
In order according to its electrical specification thinner medium to be measured, it is favourable that all sensors are the electromagnetic sensor structure.
Because device of the present invention is irrelevant with outside stroke measurment, therefore device of the present invention can be manual spear structure, so that can move towards the slag blanket direction by manually making sensor device.This structure is specially adapted to the little occasion of activity space or as indicated in the experiment with measuring, is applicable to that those are provided with the uneconomic measurement occasion of mobile device.
At last, a form of implementation of the present invention also stipulates, sensor device as a removable integral installation on spear.
By this form of implementation, can be easily a sensor device that is used to measure thickness of slag layer be changed to another kind of sensor device, so that for example other measurement project is measured or can be changed out of order sensor device simply.
