Background of the Invention
The slide gate of ladle is an important system for controlling the flow of liquid steel in the ladle. If this system encounters a breakout accident during operation, it will cause the strand breakage in CCM, burning the CCM equipment or other malignant production accidents, which will restrict the stability of production and pose a serious threat to the safety of people and equipment. With the further acceleration of the steelmaking rhythm, higher requirements are put forward for accelerating the turnover of ladles and reducing production accidents under the premise of ensuring the safe operation of the slide gate. Generally, the number of breakout accidents in the slide gate of the small ladles is relatively high. It is of great significance for the steel plants with faster production rhythm to reduce or eliminate the breakout accident in the slide gate.
The slide gate mechanism is an essential part in the metallurgical industry. In high temperature and high strength environment, the spring pressing plate is easy to be damaged, which causes high consumption and resource waste, and it is prone to surface pressure instability, which has potential safety hazards.

One side of the opening/closing frame (1) adjacent to the sliding frame (8) is mounted with guide rails for sliding frame (8). The spring pressing plate (11) is also fixed with a spring guiding sleeve (13) perpendicular to the bottom of the spring case, and the compression spring (12) is sleeved on the spring guiding sleeve (13). The opening/closing frame (1) is further provided with breather holes (4) at two ends. The interior of opening/closing frame (1) is evenly surrounded by cooling air pipes (7). A lower slide (16) is mounted in the sliding frame (8). An upper slide (17) is mounted in the fixed frame (10). The upper nozzle (18) is installed on the ladle.
In present invention, a stable and conserving type face pressing slide gate mechanism features stable face pressing, which enables safe casting. Further, a face pressing rod is provided on the spring pressing plate and hinged with a pivot arm, the end of which away from the face pressing rod is hinged with the fixed frame, and the face pressing rod is installed with a face pressing bolt, which runs through the face pressing rod to press against the spring pressing plate and the pressure is applied to the compression spring by the locking of the face pressing bolt and the contact with the spring pressing plate, and the compression spring applies the pressure to the opening/closing frame, thus applying a face pressure between two slides, so as to seal the surface and avoid breakout; because the spring pressing plate is provided with a guiding hole, which enables the accurate positioning of the face pressing bolt, so as to avoid its deviation and ensure stable face pressing; since the insert is installed in the guiding hole and the face pressing bolt is pressed against the inserts through the guiding hole, the insert can be removed or replaced if it wears out, and the entire spring pressing plate does not need to be replaced, thereby the frequency of overall replacement of the spring pressing plate assembly is reduced thus saving production cost.
In an embodiment, the present invention provides an improved face pressing slide gate mechanism for longer stability and conserving said mechanism comprising of a fixed frame, a sliding frame and an opening/closing frame, wherein the fixed frame and the opening/closing frame are connected by a pin, the sliding frame slides forward and backward relative to the fixed frame and is installed between the fixed frame and the opening/closing frame, said mechanism characterized in that the both ends of the opening/closing frame are fixed with a spring case, which has compression springs inside with a spring pressing plate at the top, and a face pressing rod is provided on the spring pressing plate and hinged with a pivot arm, the end of which away from the face pressing rod is hinged with the fixed frame.
In another embodiment, said face pressing rod is installed with a face pressing bolt, which runs through the face pressing rod to press against the spring pressing plate.
In another embodiment, said spring pressing plate is provided with a guiding hole, which is installed with inserts inside, and the face pressing bolt runs through the guiding hole to press against the inserts.
In another embodiment, said spring pressing plate is provided with a guiding hole, which is installed with inserts inside, and the face pressing bolt runs through the guiding hole to press against the inserts.
In another embodiment, said mechanism includes two pairs of connecting blocks, which are symmetrically fixed at two ends of the fixed frame and hinged to the fixed frame and the opening/closing frame respectively.
In another embodiment, said opening/closing frame's slide adjacent to the sliding frame is mounted with guide rails suitable for the sliding frame.
In another embodiment, said spring pressing plate is fixed with a spring guiding sleeve perpendicular to the bottom of the spring case, and the compression springs are provided on the spring guiding sleeve.
In another embodiment, said opening/closing frame is provided with breather holes at two ends.
In another embodiment, said opening/closing frame is evenly surrounded by cooling air pipes.
In another embodiment, said lower slide is mounted in the sliding frame. In another embodiment, said upper slide is mounted in the fixed frame.
