Definitions

  • the present invention relates to porous refractory elements intended to be traversed by a gaseous fluid under pressure.
  • a metal casing for example a thin steel sheet, which is closed at one of its ends by a base plate provided with supply means. blowing gas.
  • the envelope and the plate define a receptacle in which the porous mass only appears by a single free face, which is intended to be brought into contact with the molten metal.
  • the inventors have found that, under the influence of repetitive blowing sequences, the envelope sometimes ends up exhibiting permanent deformation, so that in the absence of blowing, molten metal entered the. spaces thus formed between the envelope and the porous mass.
  • the invention relates to a porous refractory element intended to be traversed by a gaseous fluid under pressure and comprising a porous refractory mass placed in a metal receptacle constituted by a lateral envelope and a base plate provided with means gas supply, characterized in that the receptacle internally comprises a deflector secured to the base plate and the walls of which parallel to the lateral envelope extend over a height less than that of said envelope.
  • the deflector consists of a simple metallic ferrule.
  • the refractory mass is composed of a porous central part surrounded by a peripheral layer of compact refractory concrete, the deflector taking position between this central part and the peripheral layer.
  • the subject of the invention is also a method of manufacturing the porous refractory element, according to which the metal receptacle constitutes the shell for molding the refractory mass, a method characterized in that it consists in taking an asymmetrical U-shaped metal gutter whose large branch, arranged externally, constitutes the lateral envelope and the small branch constitutes the deflector, to fill this gutter with a compact refractory concrete so as to obtain a sealed peripheral layer, to invert the assembly obtained and to place it on a temporary support surface, then filling the remaining central cavity with porous refractory concrete and finally closing the filling orifice with a plate fitted with gas supply means and fixed in leaktight manner to the base of the gutter.
  • the present invention therefore basically consists in discharging the metal envelope from its lateral gas-tightness function by replacing, for this purpose, an internal deflector surrounded at a distance by said envelope. Fixing the deflector on the base plate allows it, moreover, to constitute a stop against the infiltrations of molten metal which take place between the envelope and the porous mass and to prevent these from coming to obstruct the means for supplying the blowing gas.
  • the deflector only partially replaces the casing in its role of lateral gas tightness.
  • the deflector can in fact only constitute a baffle having a reduced height compared to that of the envelope. It is understood that, in the opposite case, that is to say if the deflector extended from the base plate to the free surface of the porous mass, we would otherwise be in a situation analogous to that known described previously with the drawbacks which the present invention seeks to remedy precisely.
  • the element shown in the figures is constituted by a refractory mass 1 housed in a metal receptacle 2, so as to reveal only a free surface 3.
  • This free surface 3 is intended to be brought into contact with the molten metal when the element is incorporated into the refractory lining of a metallurgical container.
  • the refractory mass 1 is made up of two parts, one inside the other: a core 4 made of porous refractory material, permeable to gas, and a peripheral layer 5, about 2 cm thick, surrounding the core 4 and made of a compact refractory concrete, of very fine particle size, so as to be as impermeable to gases as possible.
  • the metal receptacle 2 made of 1.5 mm thick sheet steel, is composed of a lateral envelope 6, a base of which is closed by a bottom 7 provided in the middle with a pipe 8 for the introduction of the blowing gas.
  • the envelope 6 has a regular converging profile from the bottom 7 to the level of the free surface 3, that is to say in the direction of blowing of the gas. This is a classic arrangement, giving the element a shape in the form of a pyramid with a rectangular or square base.
  • this particular form which is not limitative of the invention makes it possible, on the one hand, to facilitate the insertion without play of the element in the orifice of the refractory lining intended to receive it and, on the other hand, once the element is in place, ensure the blocking of the refractory mass 1 which otherwise risks being ejected into the molten metal, under the effect of the pressurized gas blown through the pipe 8.
  • the element has internally a deflector 11 surrounded at a distance by the casing 6 and secured to the bottom 7 in a sealed manner over its entire perimeter.
  • this deflector is constituted by a metal partition parallel to the casing 6 but necessarily extending over a height less than that of the latter. More precise information on the optimal height of the deflector is given below.
  • the deflector 11 is not attached to the bottom 7 but constitutes the small branch of an asymmetrical U-shaped section whose casing 6 represents the other branch and whose the base, referenced 12, delimits the periphery of the bottom 7, the central part of the latter being constituted by a flange 13 sealingly attached to the base 12 by means of a weld bead 14.
  • the deflector 11 is disposed in the element, so as to take place in the junction zone between the porous core 4 and the compact layer 5.
  • the element to be made from the structure which has just been described is intended to replace a brick usual refractory constituting the bottom of a steelworks pocket or refining converter. It is clear, under these conditions, that this structure will advantageously have a size identical to or very slightly lower than that of the brick to be replaced, the formats of which are moreover standardized.
  • the bottom bricks of a conventional converter having a capacity of the order of 20 t. usually have the following approximate format: 60 cm high for a length and a width of 16 and 14 cm respectively at their base.
  • the filling end is closed off by means of a metal flange 13 sealingly attached to the base 12 of the gutter and carrying the pipe 8 for supplying the blowing gas.
  • the sealed assembly between the flange 13 and the base 12 is produced by a weld bead 14.
  • the element thus produced is then removed from the support surface and after drying and gentle cooking, is ready for use.
  • the deflector 11 constitutes with respect to the gas passing through the porous mass 4 a baffle which channels it towards the free surface 3 by preventing it from dispersing laterally towards the envelope 6.
  • the compact concrete layer 5 may be capable, by itself, of ensuring the channeling of the gas.
  • the invention is not limited to this embodiment, but extends to the case where the entire refractory mass 1 is permeable to gas and, in this case, only the baffle 11 ensures the gas pipeline.
  • the deflector 11 extends over the entire height of the refractory mass 1, that is to say over a height equal to that of the outer casing 6 so as to channel the gas up to the free surface 3.
  • the optimum height for the deflector is substantially equal to the remaining height of the entire element, when it is replaced after wear. This optimal height is of the order of approximately 15 cm in the case where the metallurgical container for which the permeable element according to the invention is intended is a converter for refining cast iron into steel.
  • the present invention cannot be limited to the example described, but extends to any other embodiment of the deflector in the hovel where it constitutes, with respect to metal infiltration, a stop and with respect to the blowing gas passing through the porous refractory material, a baffle or, more generally, a member with a very high pressure drop preventing or at least greatly reducing the lateral dispersion of the gas up to the outer envelope.
