Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved three-plate slide gate for a tundish.
  • slide gates are known for application to the tundish in order to control the molten metal jet running into the ingot mould.
  • Slide gates comprising three superposed plates are particularly known, in which the two outer plates are fixed and each provided with a hole coaxial to that of the other plate, whereas the intermediate plate, also provided with a hole, is mobile longitudinally between the two fixed plates to enable its hole to be aligned with the holes of these latter and thus establish continuity of passage for the molten metal towards the ingot mould.
  • the main object of the invention is to reduce this drawback by providing a three-plate slide gate, particularly for a tundish, in which a substantial seal is provided between the adjacent plates.
  • a three-plate slide gate particularly for a tundish, in which a substantial seal is provided between the adjacent plates.
  • slide gates it is very difficult for the mobile plate to move relative to the fixed plates under conditions of perfect mutual translation. In this respect, undesirable stresses arise leading to abnormal movementes having componentes at an angle to the longitudinal slide plane of the mobile plate.
  • a further object of the invention is to obviate or at least reduce this drawback, at least when the degree of wear between the plates is still small:
  • a further drawback of known slide gates is that as a result of all these stresses, deformations and expansions to which the plates are subjected, a longitudinal crack often forms on the mobile plate, beginning at the casting hole and extending along the centre axis of the plate.
  • This crack also becomes a repository for molten steel, which then solifieds and under the effect of the movement of the plate and the thermal stresses to which it is subjected increases the phenomenon until the plate is made unserviceable.
  • a further object of the invention is to also obviate this drawback.
  • an improved three-plate slide gate particularly for a tundish, of the type comprising two fixed plates rigid with the tundish and provided with a coaxial hole, and, interposed therebetween, a mobile plate provided with a hole and supported by a frame driven in such a manner as to cause said plate to slide longitudinally between a position in which its hole is aligned with those of the two fixed plates and a position of non-alignment, and a plurality of springs acting in the sense of urging the lower fixed plate against the upper fixed plate to provide sealed contact between the corresponding surfaces of the fixed plates and mobile plate substantially for any position of this latter, characterised in that the springs are transversely fixed with respect to the tundish and have their lines of action lying within the longitudinal dimensions of the mobile plate for any position of this latter.
  • the slide gate according to the invention is of conventional three-plate type, of which the two outer plates are fixed to the tundish 3 while the intermediate plate 4 is mobile tangentially to these.
  • the upper fixed plate 1 is directly secured to the outer metal container of the tundish 3, whereas the lower fixed plate 2 is secured to a structure 5, itself fixed to said tundish 3.
  • Both the fixed plates 1,2 are provided with a passage hole 6,6 for the molten metal, the two being equal and coaxial.
  • the mobile plate 4 is mounted sustantially as an exact fit in a perimetral frame 7 secured to the drive and guide members (not shown) for tangentially moving said mobile plate relative to the adjacent fixed plates 1,2.
  • the mobile plate 4 is also provided with a casting hole 8, the movements of this mobile plate being such that when in one of its two end positions the hole 8 is coaxial to the holes 6,6' of the fixed plate 1,2, whereas when in the other end position the hole of the mobile plate faces portions of the fixed plates not comprising the relative hole.
  • the springs 11 are disposed about the casting hole 6 at a distance therefrom such that, taking into account the longitudinal dimensions of the mobile plate 4, their line of action falls within the longitudinal dimensions of said mobile plate for any position thereof.
  • the grub screws 9 are tightened to keep the plate "compacted", for the dual purpose of reducing the risk of crack formation and of slowing the rate of propagation of any which may have formed.
  • the purpose of the springs 11 is to take up any slack between the plates 1,2,4, their action extending over all three plates about the casting holes 6,6 8 and therefore helping to provide an effective seal, even in the case of possible plate deformation.
  • the combined effect of the springs 11 and screws 10 ensures an effective seal between the plates for any relative position thereof, this on the one hand preventing carburization of their mutually contactiong surfaces and on the other hand preventing the entry of air drawn in from the outside with consequent oxidation of the jet of molten metal.
