Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for treating molten metal,
More specifically, a baffle for preventing eddy currents and undulations is provided in a hanging manner on the lid of the processing tank, and a lower portion of the baffle for preventing eddy currents and undulations is immersed in the molten metal placed in the processing tank. The processing gas is introduced into the molten metal in the form of fine bubbles, and the molten metal is stirred by a rotating body immersed in the molten metal, and the processing gas and the molten metal are brought into contact with each other. For removing dissolved gases and non-metallic inclusions. 2. Description of the Related Art As an apparatus for treating molten metal of this type, a baffle plate mounting portion is provided on the lower surface of a lid of a processing tank, and an upper end portion of a baffle plate for preventing eddy currents and waving is mounted by bolts and nuts. Is known (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-7716). [0003] However, the conventional apparatus has a problem that molten metal is scattered during the processing operation, the bolts and nuts are eroded, and it is not easy to remove the baffle plate when replacing it. is there. Moreover, the baffle is worn out,
Even if the bolts and nuts are not damaged, if the bolts and nuts are eroded, the baffle plate may fall off. Therefore, it is necessary to replace these, and there is a problem that the operation is troublesome. Further, when replacing baffles, bolts, nuts, and the like, it is necessary to lift the entire lid with a crane or the like, and there is a problem that the operation is troublesome. An object of the present invention is to provide a molten metal processing apparatus which solves the above problems. [0005] In the molten metal processing apparatus according to the present invention, the upper end opening of the processing tank is closed by a lid,
The baffle for preventing eddy currents and ripples is provided on the lid in a drooping manner, and the lower part of the baffle for preventing vortex currents and ripples is immersed in the molten metal placed in the processing tank, and The processing gas is introduced into the metal in the form of fine bubbles, and the molten metal is stirred by the rotating body immersed in the molten metal, and the processing gas and the molten metal are brought into contact with each other to dissolve the dissolved gas and nonmetallic inclusions in the molten metal. A baffle plate insertion through-hole through which only the baffle plate is passed is formed in the lid, and a baffle plate attachment portion is provided on the upper surface of the lid, so that the baffle plate for preventing eddy currents and waving is obstructed. Board insertion
And is detachably attached to the baffle plate attaching portion outside the lid. [0006] Only a baffle plate is provided on the lid for closing the upper opening of the processing tank.
A baffle plate insertion through hole to be passed is formed, and a baffle plate attachment portion is provided on the upper surface of the lid, and a vortex and waving prevention baffle plate is passed through the baffle plate insertion through hole and at the outside of the lid. If the baffle plate is removably attached to the baffle plate mounting portion, the molten metal will not scatter to bolts, nuts, etc., which attach the baffle plate to the baffle plate mounting portion, even during processing work, and these members will erode. Is prevented. Also, when replacing the baffle plate, the work can be performed outside the lid, so that it is not necessary to remove the lid. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. [0008] The apparatus for treating molten metal has a detachable lid (2).
Treatment tank (1) for containing molten metal with lid, and lid (2)
A plurality of baffles (3) for preventing eddy currents and undulations, which are provided in a drooping manner, and the lower part of which is immersed in the molten metal contained in the treatment layer (1), and are disposed in the treatment tank (1). And the upper part extends outside the treatment tank (1) through the lid (2),
And a vertical rotating shaft (4) having a processing gas supply path (5) inside.
And a rotating body (6) for finely dispersing and treating the processing gas fixedly provided at the lower end of the vertical rotating shaft (4). The baffle plate (3) for preventing eddy currents and ripples is preferably made of ceramics such as SiC or SiN or graphite, but is not limited thereto, and does not react with the molten metal and is eroded by the molten metal. What is necessary is just to consist of a difficult material. A plurality of baffle plate through holes (7) are formed on the circumference of the lid (2) concentric with the vertical rotation axis (4) at intervals in the circumferential direction. A baffle plate mounting portion (8) is formed integrally with the upper surface of the lid (2) so as to protrude upward at a portion adjacent to each through hole (7). The baffle plate (3) for preventing eddy currents and ripples is passed through the through-hole (7), and the upper end thereof is detachably attached to the baffle plate attachment portion (8) by bolts (9) and nuts (11). I have. The baffle plate (3) for preventing eddy currents and undulations is preferably arranged in a direction perpendicular to the flow direction of the molten metal stirred by the rotating body (6). The vertical rotating shaft (4) is rotated by a rotary drive (not shown) disposed above the processing layer (1). The upper end of the processing gas supply path (5) is connected to a processing gas supply device (not shown), and the lower end is a rotating body (6).
It opens into a gas chamber (not shown) formed at the center of the interior. Although not shown, a plurality of agitating projections are formed on the peripheral surface of the rotating body (6) at intervals in the circumferential direction. The rotating body (6) has a plurality of radially formed through holes, one end of which is open to the gas chamber and the other end of which is open to the tip surface of the stirring projection. Further, a plurality of grooves extending radially from the central portion to the peripheral surface are provided on the bottom surface of the rotating body (6). In such a configuration, the vertical rotation shaft (4)
Is rotated at a high speed by the driving device, and the processing gas is supplied from the processing gas supply device to the processing gas supply path (5). The processing gas is discharged into the gas chamber from the lower end of the processing gas supply path (5), flows to the periphery through the radial through-hole, and is discharged into the molten metal in the form of fine bubbles from the tip of the stirring projection. Is done. The microbubbles are the rotating body (6)
Treatment layer along the flow of molten metal generated by the rotation of
Distributed throughout. At this time, the baffle plate (3) prevents remarkable eddies and undulations on the surface of the molten metal. In addition, a small turbulent flow is generated on the back side of the baffle plate (3) (the surface opposite to the surface on which the molten metal flows), and this turbulent flow allows the processing gas to be refined more efficiently. ) Distributed throughout. Then, bubbles of the processing gas dispersed throughout the processing tank (1) come into contact with the molten metal, and the dissolved gas and nonmetallic inclusions are removed. If it becomes necessary to replace the vortex and ripple preventing baffle (3) due to wear, damage, etc.
The bolt (9) and the nut (11) may be removed outside (2). According to the molten metal processing apparatus of the present invention, as described above, even during the processing operation, the molten metal can be applied to members such as bolts and nuts for attaching the baffle plate to the baffle plate mounting portion. There is no scattering, and erosion of these members is prevented. Therefore, the baffle can be easily removed at the time of replacement. In addition, there is no need to replace baffles due to erosion of members such as bolts and nuts. In addition, since it is not necessary to remove the lid when replacing the baffle plate, the operation is simplified.
