Definitions
- the present invention relates to a furnace for maintaining the temperature and metallurgical treatment of a metal in the liquid state, of the type comprising a container of liquid metal equipped, in the upper part, with a burner of the oxygen-fuel or air-type oxy-fuel, in the lower part, of at least one porous plug for the injection of a neutral stirring gas, and of opening means for the introduction and / or the withdrawal of charges.
- mixers in the form of pockets lined with refractories and equipped with an air-fuel burner to store the liquid metal as it leaves the melting apparatus and attempt to limit the temperature drop before its subsequent use.
- induction furnaces crucibles for medium capacities, with channels for the largest, but in cast iron foundries, the investment and operating costs of induction are very important.
- an aluminothermic operation is carried out directly in a bag consisting of an addition of aluminum to the metal, then an injection of oxygen and a mixing of homogenization and decantation of the liquid metal at l help of argon.
- This process although used industrially, heats the metal, but does not allow any metallurgical treatment.
- a holding oven has been produced in the form of the traditional metallurgical ladle, which has been fitted with an oxy-fuel burner, mounted through an attached ladle cover. , and a porous bottom plug, all allowing good heat transfer.
- This achievement is however extremely rudimentary, and it leads to losses significant thermal and does not allow the implementation of metallurgical treatments.
- the subject of the present invention is a furnace for maintaining the temperature and metallurgical treatment of a metal in the liquid state making it possible not only to limit the temperature drop but also a certain reheating of the liquid metal and also treatment additions and which , in addition to the storage and heating of the metal, makes it possible to adjust or modify the chemical composition of the latter and optionally to make it react with other elements such as a slag for example.
- the container is made in the form of a closed insulated cylindrical enclosure tiltable around its longitudinal axis, arranged horizontally and having a vault and two passages with vertical component, one at a end of the enclosure, in the form of a chimney opening into the enclosure near the vault of the enclosure and serving for the introduction of liquid metal, the other, in the vicinity of an opposite end, in the form of an opening chute internally at the level of the bottom of the enclosure and the outlet of which comes, in the position of withdrawal of liquid metal, in a tilted position of said enclosure, the burner being mounted in the roof of the enclosure, on the side of the withdrawal passage.
- the enclosure is almost completely closed, which simplifies handling and avoids excessive heat loss, while allowing metallurgical treatment maneuvers, such as the introduction of reactive products.
- the neutral argon or nitrogen gas blown from the bottom allows thermal and metallurgical homogenization.
- an oven is in the form of a cylindrical enclosure 2 and two bottom walls 3 and 4, made of refractory material, if necessary with an additional thermal insulation.
- This cylindrical enclosure is designed so that the ratio between the axial length L and its diameter A is advantageously between 1.4 and 1.8 and preferably of the order of 1.6 to, on the one hand limit the losses walls and, on the other hand, minimize variations in the height of the liquid metal.
- This cylindrical enclosure is mounted on a horizontal tilting axis XY along the axis of the cylinder.
- a liquid metal introduction passage 5 in the form of a chimney passing through the bottom wall 3 and opening into this furnace at 6 at a high level of the furnace.
- a second passage 7 is formed, in the vicinity of the other wall 4, by a lateral extension in refractory and opens tangentially at 8 to the internal wall of the enclosure 1 and, in the operational position - position visible in FIG. 2- s pupil to lead into 9 at a level higher than the maximum level N1 of liquid metal 10.
- a service door 12 also forming an access passage for the release of any supernatant dross as shown at 11 in FIG. 2.
- At least two porous plugs 14 and 15 are arranged in the low position through the cylindrical enclosure wall 2, one 14 closer to the end wall 3, the other 15 more than the end wall 4 , for the injection of a stirring gas such as argon, and these porous plugs 14 and 15 are inclined with an angular offset a relative to the bottom line F, so as to be flush with the outlet 8 of the withdrawal passage 7
- a stirring gas such as argon
- a burner 17 of the oxygen-fuel type, vertically adjustable, is mounted at a high point or arch of the cylindrical wall 2 of the enclosure 1 and it is located longitudinally closer to the end wall 4 than to the wall of end 3, substantially perpendicular to the passage 7, so as to provide preferential heating on the discharge side of the liquid metal and also increase the residence time of hot gas before exhaust via the chimney duct 5, which improves the transfer thermal towards the metallic mass. It is understood that, during the treatment, the metal introduced through the passage 5 flows along the arrow f (FIG. 1) longitudinally towards the outlet end 8, while being stirred by the neutral gas blown in by the porous plugs 14 and 15.
- the enclosure 1 is tilted according to the arrow f ' to bring the withdrawal chute 7 in the low position.
