Description

강판 용융아연도금 공정에서의 스나우트의 내부 이물제거장치Internal foreign matter removal device of Snout in the steel plate hot dip galvanizing process
본 발명은 스나우트의 내부 이물제거장치에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 스노클부 내의 이물질이 아연도금 되는 강판의 표면에 부착되는 것을 방지하여 강판의 아연도금 품질을 향상시킬 수 있는 강판 용융아연도금 공정에서의 스나우트의 내부 이물제거장치에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a device for removing foreign substances inside a snout, and more particularly, a hot-dip galvanizing process for a steel sheet capable of improving the galvanizing quality of the steel sheet by preventing foreign substances in the snorkel from adhering to the surface of the galvanized steel sheet. It relates to the internal foreign matter removal device of the snout.
일반적으로, 용융아연도금공정은 냉간압연공정을 거친 강판을 가열로에서 열처리하여 성형성과 도금 밀착성이 우수한 코일로 만든 후, 페이오프릴(미도시)과 용접기(미도시)를 통하여 연속 통판되면서, 잔류응력을 제거 하도록 가열로(소둔로)에서 열처리 된다. 열처리된 강판은 아연도금에 적당한 온도로 유지되는 상태에서, 도금액 즉, 용융아연이 충진된 용융아연도금조로 유입된다. In general, in the hot-dip galvanizing process, a steel sheet that has undergone a cold rolling process is heat-treated in a heating furnace to make a coil with excellent formability and plating adhesion, and is then continuously sold through a payoff reel (not shown) and a welding machine (not shown). It is heat treated in a heating furnace (annealing furnace) to remove residual stress. The heat-treated steel sheet flows into a hot-dip galvanizing bath filled with a plating solution, that is, hot-dip zinc, while being maintained at a temperature suitable for galvanizing.
용융아연도금조의 온도는 대략 460℃를 유지하게 되는데, 아연의 융점이 420℃이므로 용융아연도금조 내에서 아연은 항상 용융상태에 유지된다. 따라서 용융아연도금조 상부로 증발된 아연 흄이 지속적으로 공급된다. The temperature of the hot-dip galvanizing bath is maintained at approximately 460°C. Since the melting point of zinc is 420°C, zinc is always maintained in a molten state in the hot-dip galvanizing bath. Therefore, the evaporated zinc fume is continuously supplied to the upper part of the hot-dip galvanizing bath.
용융아연도금을 위해서 강판은 스나우트의 내부를 통해서 용융아연도금조 내로 연속적으로 공급되어 싱크롤을 감아 돌아 나오면서 아연도금이 행해진 후, 에어나이프에 의해 도금량이 제어되거나, 도금층의 합금화를 위하여 상기 에어나이프로부터 떨어진 위치에 있는 합금화로에 진입되어 합금화 열처리가 된다. 그리고 연속적으로 에어 냉각대에서 냉각되어 탑롤을 향해 전진되는 과정을 거치게 된다.For hot-dip galvanizing, the steel sheet is continuously supplied into the hot-dip galvanizing bath through the inside of the snout, and the sink roll is wound and galvanized. After that, the plating amount is controlled by an air knife or the air It enters the alloying furnace at a location away from the knife and undergoes alloying heat treatment. And it is continuously cooled in the air cooling table and goes through the process of advancing toward the top roll.
이러한 과정에서 스나우트 내부에서 아연 증발량은 용융아연도금조의 크기에 따라 차이는 있으나 코일상의 강판을 도금하기 위한 용융아연도금조의 경우, 시간당 1-2ℓ정도로서, 상당히 많은 양의 증발이 일어나는 것으로 알려져 있다. In this process, the amount of zinc evaporation inside the snout varies depending on the size of the hot-dip galvanizing bath, but in the case of the hot-dip galvanizing bath for plating coiled steel sheets, it is known that a fairly large amount of evaporation occurs, about 1-2 liters per hour.
이러한 아연 증발물인 애쉬(ash)는 스나우트 상부까지 확산됨으로써 스나우트의 내면에 부착되고, 자중에 의해 스나우트 내의 탕면으로 낙하하게 된다. 탕면으로 낙하 된 애쉬는 부유하면서 도금되는 강판의 표면에 부착되거나 강판 진행 방향으로 간헐적 또는 연속적인 띠를 형성하게 되어 강판의 아연도금 품질을 저하시키는 문제가 있다. Ash (ash), which is the zinc evaporation product, is attached to the inner surface of the snout as it diffuses to the upper part of the snout, and falls to the surface of the hot water in the snout by its own weight. Ash falling to the hot water surface is attached to the surface of the plated steel sheet while floating or forms intermittent or continuous bands in the steel sheet moving direction, thereby degrading the galvanizing quality of the steel sheet.
이러한 문제점을 감안하여 상기 스나우트는 끝단이 용융아연도금조에 잠기고, 끝단의 내부에는 강판의 테두리를 따라 사각형태의 높이를 갖는 댐이 설치되며, 댐의 주벽과 스나우트의 끝단 주벽 사이에는 흡입관이 구비되어 강판이 용융아연도금조에 인입할 때 발생하는 이물질을 댐의 외부로 배출할 수 있도록 스나우트의 측면에 장착된 메탈펌프와 연결된다. In consideration of this problem, the tip of the snout is immersed in a hot-dip galvanizing tank, and a dam having a rectangular height is installed inside the tip along the edge of the steel plate. It is provided and is connected to a metal pump mounted on the side of the snout to discharge foreign substances generated when the steel sheet enters the hot-dip galvanizing bath to the outside of the dam.

게시된 스나우트 메탈펌프는 스나우트의 하부에 배출관이 구비된 하우징; 상기 하우징의 개방된 상단에 모터가 장치되어 하우징 내부를 밀폐하도록 결합되며, 하우징 내부의 모터의 구동축에 스크류회전축이 연결되고, 스크류회전축의 끝단에 스크류가 장치되어 배출관 내에 배치되는 스크류뭉치를 구비한다.The posted snout metal pump includes: a housing provided with a discharge pipe at the lower part of the snout; A motor is installed at the open upper end of the housing and coupled to seal the inside of the housing, a screw rotating shaft is connected to a drive shaft of the motor inside the housing, and a screw is installed at the end of the screw rotating shaft to provide a screw bundle disposed in the discharge pipe .
상술한 바와 같이 구성된 종래의 메탈펌프는 하우징이 탕면의 상부측으로 노출되어 있으므로 외기가 유입되는 문제점이 있으며, 유입된 외기는 용탕내부의 산화 및 기포가 스나우트의 내부로 들어가 강판의 산화 및 애쉬 발생을 증가시키게 된다. The conventional metal pump configured as described above has a problem in that the outside air flows in because the housing is exposed to the upper side of the molten metal. will increase

이러한 메탈펌프는 일부가 탕면으로 노출되어 있으므로 상술한 바와 같은 종래의 문제점을 근본적으로 해결할 수 없다. Since a part of such a metal pump is exposed to the hot water surface, the conventional problems as described above cannot be fundamentally solved.
특히, 도금액이 제 1,2댐장치를 월류해 메탈펌프에 의해 펌핑될 때 펌프실 내부에 지속적으로 흡입력(진공)이 발생되어 도금액의 수위가 낮아지면, 펌프실과 댐장치를 연결하는 연결부가 개방된다. 이어서 펌프실의 흡인력에 의해 탕면에 노출된 임펠러축수부의 틈새를 통하여 외기가 펌프실을 경유하여 스나우트 내부로 역류하여 강판을 산화시키거나 다량의 애쉬가 스나우트 내부로 유입하여 강판표면에 치명적인 결함을 유발하는 원인이 된다.In particular, when the plating solution overflows the first and second dam devices and is pumped by the metal pump, suction force (vacuum) is continuously generated inside the pump room and the water level of the plating solution is lowered, the connection part connecting the pump room and the dam device is opened. . Then, the outside air flows back into the snout through the pump room through the gap of the impeller shaft exposed to the hot water surface by the suction force of the pump room to oxidize the steel sheet or a large amount of ash flows into the snout, causing fatal defects on the steel sheet surface. cause to
또한 유입된 일부의 외기가 도금액과 함께 용융아연도금조 내로 펌핑되어 용탕의 산화 및 미세 기포에 포함된 이물질에 의한 오염을 일으키는 문제점이 있다. In addition, there is a problem that some of the introduced outside air is pumped into the hot-dip galvanizing bath together with the plating solution, causing oxidation of the molten metal and contamination by foreign substances contained in microbubbles.

먼저, 도 1 및 2에 도시된 바와 같이 스노클부(20)의 단부가 탕면(1) 수위보다 낮은 위치에 위치하도록 스노클부(20)의 하부를 용융아연도금조(150)의 용탕 내에 일정 부분 침지시키면, 용융아연도금조(150) 내의 용융아연도금액(2)이 댐형성부(32)를 월류하여 챔버형성부(33)에 의해 구획된 저장공간(34)에 저장된다. 이때에 상기 스노클부(20)에 형성된 유도가이드부(55)와 임펠러(64)가 설치된 펌프하우징(61)은 용융아연도금조(150)의 탕면으로부터 소정의 깊이 인입된 용융아연도금액(2)에 잠기게 된다. First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the lower part of the snorkel part 20 is placed in a position lower than the water level of the hot water surface 1 so that the end of the snorkel part 20 is a certain portion in the molten metal of the hot-dip galvanizing bath 150 . When immersed, the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 in the hot-dip galvanizing tank 150 overflows the dam forming part 32 and is stored in the storage space 34 partitioned by the chamber forming part 33 . At this time, the pump housing 61 in which the induction guide part 55 and the impeller 64 formed in the snorkel part 20 are installed is the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 drawn in from the hot water surface of the hot-dip galvanizing bath 150 to a predetermined depth. ) is immersed in
이 상태에서, 용융아연배출유닛(50)의 모터(62)가 작동되면, 임펠러(64)가 회전되면서 저장공간(34) 내의 용융아연도금액(2)이 유도가이드부(55)의 내부공간(56)으로 유입된 후, 펌프하우징(61)의 내부에 설치된 임펠러(64)에 펌프하우징(61)의 배출부(61a)를 통하여 상기 용융아연도금조(150) 내의 용융아연도금액(2)으로 배출된다. In this state, when the motor 62 of the molten zinc discharging unit 50 is operated, the impeller 64 is rotated and the molten galvanizing solution 2 in the storage space 34 is transferred to the inner space of the induction guide part 55 . After flowing into the pump housing 61, the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 in the hot-dip galvanizing bath 150 through the discharge part 61a of the pump housing 61 to the impeller 64 installed inside the pump housing 61. ) is released as
이러한 과정에서 상기 댐유닛(30)의 강판유입구(31)를 통하여 유입된 후, 저장공간(34)로 흐르는 용융아연도금액(2)은 스나우트 내부의 애쉬를 포함한 기체와 상기 유입구(51)을 통하여 유도가이드부(55)의 내부공간(56)으로 유입될 수 있다. In this process, the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 flowing into the storage space 34 after being introduced through the steel plate inlet 31 of the dam unit 30 is the gas containing the ash inside the snout and the inlet 51 . It may be introduced into the inner space 56 of the induction guide part 55 through the .
이와 같이 상기 유도가이드부(55)의 내부공간으로 유입된 용융아연도금액(2)에 포함된 기체(기포)는 분리되어 상부로 이동되고, 용융아연도금액(2)은 배출부(61a)를 통하여 배출된다. 따라서 임펠러에 의해 펌핑되는 용융아연도금액(2)에 스나우트의 내부의 기체가 편승되어 상기 용융아연도금조(150) 내의 용탕 즉, 용융아연도금액으로 유출되는 것을 방지할 수 있다. In this way, the gas (bubbles) contained in the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 introduced into the inner space of the induction guide part 55 is separated and moved upward, and the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 is discharged through the discharge part 61a. is emitted through Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the gas inside the snout from riding on the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 pumped by the impeller and flowing into the molten metal in the hot-dip galvanizing tank 150 , that is, the hot-dip galvanizing solution.

And the inflow of outside air is basically prevented by the induction guide part 55 being submerged in the hot water surface and provided with the vortex prevention member 70, etc., but the inflow through the impeller insertion hole 52 or the through hole 66a The external gas that can be formed is discharged toward the hot water surface through the tubular gas discharge member 57 located above the inner space of the induction guide part 55 . Accordingly, oxidation of the steel sheet or the hot-dip galvanizing solution can be prevented by air, that is, bubbles riding on the pumped hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 as described above, and these bubbles are introduced into the snorkel unit 20 for plating. It can be prevented from being attached to the surface of the steel plate 200 to be combined and causing bonding.
특히 상기 탕면과 접촉되는 부위의 구동축(63)에는 도 18에 도시된 바와 같이 소용돌이방지부재(70)가 설치되어 있으므로 일부의 용융아연도금액(2)이 관통공(66a)을 통하여 유도가이드부(55)의 내부공간(56)으로 유입 되는 것을 차단함과 아울러 구동축(63)의 회전에 의한 소용돌이 발생을 방지할 수 있다. 또한 용융아연도금액(2)이 상기 구동축(63)를 따라 상승하는 것을 방지할 수 있다. In particular, as shown in FIG. 18 , a vortex prevention member 70 is installed on the drive shaft 63 at the portion in contact with the hot water surface, so that a part of the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 passes through the through hole 66a to the guide part. In addition to blocking the inflow into the inner space (56) of the (55), it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a vortex due to the rotation of the drive shaft (63). In addition, it is possible to prevent the hot-dip galvanizing solution 2 from rising along the drive shaft 63 .

It is possible to separate the impeller inserted into the pump housing 61 like the drive shaft by separating it through the impeller insertion hole 52 . Therefore, maintenance of the molten zinc discharge unit is easy.
