Definitions
- the present invention relates to a machine for drilling a tap hole of a shaft furnace, designed for implementing the method of the lost rod in which, after having closed the tap hole with a plugging mass, pushes a metal rod into it, before it has completely hardened, and it is extracted at the appropriate time with a view to opening the tap hole.
- Said machine comprises a mount for supporting the rod during said process, a drive means mounted on the mount so as to develop a traction force, respectively of thrust parallel to the mount, a coupling member for coupling said means drive the rod so as to transmit said tensile force to it during its extraction.
- the working part of these machines must include a mandrel with a coupling pliers for the rod and, above all, a powerful bi-directional pneumatic striker to deploy the energy necessary for the introduction and extraction of the rod. of piercing lost.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a machine for drilling a tap hole of a shaft furnace, designed for implementing the method of the lost rod, which makes it possible to insert said rod into the mass d '' semi-hardened obturation by a powerful push on the free end of the rod, without causing it to buckle.
- the present invention provides a machine for drilling a tap hole of the kind defined in the preamble which is characterized by a pusher member connected to said drive means so as to transmit to the rear end of the rod said thrust force during the introduction of the rod into the blocking mass, by intermediate guides mounted on the carriage so as to surround the rod in several places during the introduction of the rod into the blocking mass and by means for moving said guides, as and when advancing said pusher member in a position in which they do not interfere with the advancement of said pusher member on the lookout.
- the present invention also provides a clamp particularly suitable for the operation of the machine according to the invention.
- This clamp comprises a body axially crossed by a channel, having a diameter slightly larger than the rod, a pair of jaws arranged symmetrically around the channel and movable obliquely towards the axis of said channel in the direction of the front of the mount and is characterized in that said channel is provided with a removable mechanical stop, on which the rod bears with one end during the operation of introducing the rod into the blocking mass.
- the metal rod is guided, during the insertion operation, by intermediate guides mounted on the carriage and surrounding the rod in several places.
- the main advantage of this machine is therefore to be able to introduce the rod in one go into the plugging mass without having to use a noisy striker imposing significant vibrations on the equipment and the machine.
- said circumferential guides must be removed one after the other, as they would hinder the advancement of the clamp on said carriage.
- the present invention however also proposes preferential solutions making it possible to put said guides automatically, that is to say without stopping the introduction movement and without intervention of the operator of the machine, in a position which does not interfere with the clamp. as it advances towards the front of the carriage.
- said guides can therefore slide on the carriage. They can then be provided with their own drive system to drive them to a garage position, at the front of the carriage, as and when they risk hampering the progress of the clamp. However, they can also be advantageously driven or pushed, by the clamp drive means or by the clamp itself in a garage position at the front of the carriage as the advancement of the pliers.
- the present invention also provides preferential solutions for automatically rearranging said sliding guides on the carriage in their initial operating position, that is to say that which corresponds to the start of the rod introduction operation. .
- said guides each consist of two halves encircling, when assembled, the rod circumferentially on a certain length.
- the two halves are separated laterally by appropriate means, thus freeing the path of the clamp.
- the drive means selected for the clamp preferably comprises one or more endless chains mounted on the carriage and driven by at least one powerful motor, the direction of rotation of which can be reversed to guarantee both the insertion operation and the rod extraction operation.
- this drive means with hydraulic cylinders or a screw and nut system, or a combination of several of these systems.
- FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section of a first embodiment of the proposed machine, at the start of the operation of introducing a rod into the blocking mass;
- FIG. 1a shows a plan view of the machine according to Figure 1
- - Figure 2 shows a longitudinal section of the machine according to Figure 1, after the rod insertion operation is completed;
- FIG. 3 shows an elevation of a variant of the proposed machine, at the start of the operation -of the introduction of a rod into the blocking mass;
- FIG. 4 shows a preferred embodiment of an intermediate guide
- FIGS. 5 and 5a show partial sections through a preferred execution of a clamp during the operation of introducing the rod, the cutting planes of the 2 Figures being offset by 90 °;
- FIGS 6 and 6a show sections identical to Figures 5 and 5a, during a drilling operation with a conventional drill.
- the frame of the drilling machine is constituted by a mount 20.
- This mount is for example supported in a conventional and known manner at the end of a support arm (not shown).
- This support arm can pivot around a console to move the drilling machine between a garage position and an operative position and vice versa.
- the mount 20 can for example be formed of two parallel beams 20a, 20b joined together.
- the two beams 20a and 20b have, on their inner face, two rails 22 and 24 arranged face to face. Only the rail 22 is shown in Figure 1.
- Reference 26 designates a piercing rod, also called a lost rod, used in the method described above.
- a support 28 which is preferably a screen support of the kind proposed by European patent application EP 0 064 644.
- This comprises two flaps mounted at the front of the mount 20 , that is to say in front of the tap hole when the machine is in the operative position. These flaps can pivot between an open position facilitating the engagement and gripping of the rod 26 for the extraction thereof and a closed position in which they define a support opening for the rod 26.
- the two flaps constitute thus a support and at the same time form a splash protection shield coming from the jet leaving the tap hole when the latter opens.
- Between the two beams 20a and 20b is mounted, parallel to the rails 22 and 24, at least one endless chain 44.
- This chain 44 is stretched between a driven toothed wheel 45 mounted at the front of the mount 20 and a toothed wheel driving 46 mounted at the rear of the carriage 20.
- the driving wheel 46 is driven by at least one motor 42, fixed on the carriage 20.
- It is preferably a hydraulic motor whose direction of rotation can be reversed by a suitable control system.
- the reference 34 designates a clamp intended for the introduction and the extraction of the rod 26. It is preferably a clamp proposed by the present invention and which will be described later. It could however also be a bi-directional clamp of the kind described in the Luxembourg patent application LU-87 915 and the certificate of addition LU-88 020.
- This clamp is supported by a carriage 36 sliding freely along the mount 20, for example using the pads 37 guided in the rails 22 and 24 mounted on the two beams 20a and 20b of the mount 20.
- the carriage 36 is fixed to the endless chain 44 and can consequently be driven by the latter between a stop 50 mounted at the front of the mount 20 and a stop 51 mounted at the rear of the mount 20 and vice versa.
- the stroke between the two stops 50 and 51 is approximately equal to the length of the rod.
- the carriage 36 can also support a working member 32.
- This working member which is provided with a coupling 30 for a conventional drill bit usually comprises a drilling machine and a striker. Its presence is justified in order to be able to drill, if necessary, a tap hole with the conventional drill bit. It should however be noted that the working member 32 is not used in the lost rod process and that it could be removed if conventional drilling of the tap hole is not never used, or if this drilling can be done in another way. Of course the working member 32 could also have its own carriage and its own drive means. We will now describe the other characteristics of the present invention and at the same time study the operation of the machine for introducing the rod 26 into the tap hole and for extracting it.
- the rod 26 is loaded into the machine when the latter is in the garage position and when the clamp 34 occupies a position at the rear of the carriage (see Figure 1).
- the loading is carried out by threading the rod 26 into the clamp 34 and by inserting it into several intermediate guides (55-], 552, -553), u * ⁇ ⁇ t his placed several almost equidistant places them on the lookout 20.
- these guides (55i) The purpose of these guides (55i) is to prevent buckling of the rod 26 when the clamp 34 applies an axial thrust thereto during the insertion operation. It should be noted that - the number of intermediate guides and their spacings will be determined as a function of the characteristics of the rod (diameter, length, material, etc.) and of the force required to introduce the rod 26 into the mass of capping. This effort is mainly determined by the characteristics of the blocking mass and, inter alia, by its hardening speed.
- each guide (55i) must surround the rod 26 so as to avoid any lateral escape of the latter when the latter is subjected to an axial thrust at its end opposite the taphole.
- the distance between two successive guides must not be too great, otherwise there is a risk of the rod 26 buckling between two guides (55i), which may lead to the limit of complete blockage of the rod between these two guides.
- it is forced to successively remove said intermediate guides (55 ⁇ , 552, 553) from the path of the clamp 34 as it advances towards the 'before the lookout 20.
- FIG. 2 shows the end of the insertion operation.
- the carriage 36 is stopped against the stop 50 and the three intermediate guides 55- *, 552, 553 are located, one against the other, in the garage position in front of the carriage 36.
- Figure 3 shows a preferred embodiment of a sliding guide. It has a hook 56 which is for example engaged with grooves in its feet 57 between the lower flanges of the beams 20a and 20b forming the mount. It should be noted that the mounting of the hook must allow it to slide on the carriage 20, while avoiding warping of the hook when it is subjected to offset forces.
- the latter has a lateral notch defined by two horizontal edges which are spaced a distance slightly greater than the diameter of the rod 26.
- this lateral notch is closed using a piece 58 which is perpendicular to the two horizontal edges, in order to clearly define the rod 26 and to prevent it from being able to laterally escape from the hook 56.
- the part 58 can be articulated on the hook 56 and can advantageously be provided with a lever 59 so as to be able to easily close and open said lateral notch manually. It would however also be possible to fully automate this opening and closing of said notch.
- the latter consist of two symmetrical halves which can be separated laterally from the rod 26 when approaching the clamp 34. From the operating point of view, this variant is strictly equivalent to the predescribed variant of the sliding guides; it will therefore not be described in detail below.
- the present invention also provides a preferred embodiment which allows the guides (55i) to be brought back from their garage position to the front of the carriage, which they occupy at the end of the operation for introducing the rod in the blocking mass, in their operative position which they must occupy at the start of said introduction operation.
- the clamp 34 preferably used on a machine according to the present invention is shown in Figures 5, 5a, 6 and 6a.
- This clamp 34 comprises a clamp body 75 crossed axially by a bore or channel 74 having a diameter slightly larger than the rod 26.
- it is a uni-directional clamp designed for the extraction of the rod 26, that is to say that it comprises 2 jaws 70, 72 arranged symmetrically around the axial channel 74 and displaceable obliquely towards the axis of this channel 74 in the direction of the front of the carriage.
- the jaws 70, 72 automatically bite into the end of the rod 26 placed in the channel 74 and thus ensure perfect coupling of the clamp 34 with the rod 26.
- this is not the case during the introduction of the rod.
- this uni-directional clamp can however also be used with the present machine for the introduction of the rod 26 into the plugging mass.
- the present invention proposes to arrange in the channel 74, behind the jaws 70, a mechanical stop in order to provide a fulcrum for the rod 26 during said insertion operation.
- this removable mechanical stop is achieved, by way of example only, by introducing a key 78 in a mortise 76 which crosses the channel 74 perpendicularly.
- This key 78 which has a slightly greater height that the diameter of the rod 26, is secured at 80 against inadvertent displacement. It is however also possible to carry out this mechanical stop using an element controlled for example by a pneumatic circuit, which would avoid human intervention on the clamp even to close or open said channel 74.
- FIGS. 6 and 6a we see that for a drilling operation said key 78 is removed. The drill 27 can thus pass through the clamp 34 to be introduced into the coupling 30 of the working member 32, where it is blocked by an anti-gyratory stop 80.
- the free end of the latter is threaded into the clamp 34 which is stopped against the stop 50.
- the clamp 34 is closed by actuating the jaws 70 and 72 which grip said end of the rod.
- the motor 42 is actuated to withdraw the carriage 36 towards the stop 51.
- the present invention provides a machine which makes it possible to introduce a piercing rod into the plugging mass without striker, by exerting on the end of the latter a simple powerful axial thrust, which has been judged as not possible until now.
- this machine is distinguished by a simple and robust design, and it will be appreciated, among other things, that it provides better environmental protection by an almost silent operation.
