Description

Method for welding aluminum cell cathode steel bar by thermite
Technical Field
A method for welding a cathode steel bar of an aluminum electrolytic cell by using thermite relates to the overhaul of the aluminum electrolytic cell, in particular to a method for welding the cathode steel bar of the aluminum electrolytic cell by overhaul.
Background
The normal production can be carried out only after the electrolytic cell is stopped, and one important link of the electrolytic cell overhaul is the welding of the cathode steel bar. In the implementation process, the cathode steel bar and the cathodesmall bus are firstly cut and separated from the old steel bar and then connected with the new steel bar.
According to different states of metals in welding, the welding can be divided into three major categories, namely pressure welding, fusion welding and brazing. The cathode steel bar in the aluminum electrolysis industry generally adopts a steel plate layer-by-layer welding method (namely black contact fusion welding), and the part (namely the steel plate layer-by-layer welding part) where the cathode bus bar is connected with the cathode steel bar is called a welding transition section.
At present, welding of the transition section at home and abroad is not reported, and at present, most of aluminum electrolysis plants adopt heavy current production, so that in order to weaken the interference of a strong electromagnetic field on black welding, a 'double transition section' method is forced to be adopted to connect a cathode steel bar and a small bus, and a temporary bus needs to be erected sometimes to share current, so that the power consumption is increased, meanwhile, the interference of the strong magnetic field also influences the welding quality, and the labor intensity of workers is increased.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for welding a cathode steel bar of an aluminum electrolysis cell by using an thermite, which can effectively reduce the power consumption, avoid the interference of a strong magnetic field, ensure the welding quality, reduce the labor intensity and be simple and quick to operate aiming at the defects of the prior art.
The purpose of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme.
A process for welding the cathode steel rod of aluminium electrolyzer with thermite includes such steps as putting thermite reaction agent containing aluminium powder and iron oxide in quartz crucible with self-fusing plugs at top and bottom of gap between two segments of cathode steel rods, igniting with magnesium strip as igniting agent, flowing molten iron in the cavity of welding mould formed by sealing left and right surfaces and bottom of gap between cathode steel rods with quartz sand mould, and welding two segments of cathode steel rods.
The method is characterized in that the aluminothermic reaction medicament comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 20 to 30 percent of Al powder, 5 to 10 percent of Fe powder and the balance of Fe2O3And (3) pulverizing.
The method of the invention is characterized in that the self-melting plug of the quartz crucible for welding is a cap-shaped bowl-shaped iron plug.
The method is characterized in that the thermite reaction agent contains 3-5% of ferromanganese alloy powder. The ferromanganese alloy added into the thermite is a commercial standard type ferromanganese alloy. The manganese in the manganese-iron alloy can enable the welding point components to be close to the cathode steel bar components, and the welding performance of the cathode steel bar is effectively improved.
The principle of the invented method, thermite welding method, is to ignite the thermite with an ignition agent to produce the following thermite chemical reactionThe following steps are required: . The temperature can reach more than 2000 ℃ in the reaction, molten iron and aluminum oxide scum are generated, and the high-temperature molten iron can complete the instantaneous welding of workpieces. High-temperature molten iron is injected into the welding model cavity in about 10 seconds, so that the welding seam has higher heat capacityThereby allowing a smaller cooling rate of the weld zone.
According to the method, the quartz crucible for containing the medicament can bear high-temperature reaction above 2000 ℃, and can be used repeatedly. And (3) adopting a disposable quartz sand welding model according to the welding characteristics and the application condition of the bottom cathode steel bar. The welding model is composed of three quartz blocks which are respectively attached to the side surface of the gap between the two cathode steel bars and the bottom surface of the gap between the two cathode steel bars and are used for plugging the gap between the two cathode steel bars into a model cavity, and the three quartz blocks are clamped by an external iron clamp to form a good welding model inner cavity with two air holes in the outer surface and the three surfaces, so that the welding is more reasonable, safer and more reliable.
According to the method, the bottom of the quartz crucible adopts the self-melting plug, the self-melting plug can automatically melt when the molten iron reaches the preset temperature, the phenomena of manual smashing and slag inclusion are avoided through the molten iron, and the welding quality is improved.
According to the method, the surface of the cathode steel bar is treated before welding, dust, rust and impurities are removed and passivated, so that the surface cleanliness of the cathode steel bar is increased, the contact quality of the cathode steel bar and the carbon block is improved, and the cathode voltage drop is reduced. During welding, two cathode steel bars to be welded are placed, so that the distance between the middle craters is kept to be a gap, the craters are kept clean, and the sections of the craters are kept vertical and parallel.
In order to improve the welding effect, the method needs to preheat the surface of the welding opening of the cathode steel bar before welding, so that the preheating temperature of the surface of the welding opening reaches over 800 ℃. After various working procedures and the preheating of the welding crater are finished, the welding flux ignition agent in the upper container is immediately ignited, so that the welding flux generates violent thermite reaction in a very short time (about 10 seconds), and the generated high-temperature molten iron flows into the welding cavity of the lower welding model, thereby completing the welding of the cathode steel bar. And cleaning dross of the welding flux on the surface to expose the full welding meat and the welding part, thereby finishing the operation.
The method can avoid the influence of a strong magnetic field and the environment on the welding operation, so that the welding method is quick and convenient, the welding flesh is full, the welding is firm, the cathode voltage is reduced, the overall welding effect is good, the electric conductivity which is the same as that of a steel bar can be obtained, the energy conservation and the consumption reduction are facilitated, a new welding method except the conventional black welding is realized, the influence of the magnetic field on the welding is eliminated, and the method is particularly suitable for the welding which can not be carried out by the conventional method under the strong magnetic field and other severe environments.
