Definitions

  • This invention relates to an inert gas injecting plate brick or insert nozzle brick for use in a sliding gate valve apparatus of molten metal as defined in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the molten metal received in a ladle is poured into a mold through a tundish.
  • a certain amount of molten metal is kept stored within the tundish before starting the pouring of the molten metal into the mold at the beginning of casting, and after the flowing-up of impurities a nozzle is opened to start the pouring.
  • This procedure is called a closed start, and these days this technique has now been introduced.
  • the document JP-A-53-123 336 discloses an inert gas injecting plate brick or insert nozzle brick for use in a sliding gate valve apparatus of molten metal, in particular for a closed start pouring system, wherein an amount of molten metal is stored in a tundish prior to pouring the molten metal into a mold at the beginning of casting, wherein the sliding gate valve is provided with a pipe for gas injection.
  • the sliding gate valve apparatus is provided with an inert gas injecting plate, wherein a plate is provided with a tube for injecting gas.
  • the brick forming the plate is provided with a corresponding boring to receive the pipe.
  • the document JP-A-61-195 734 discloses a nozzle for manufacturing composite matter wherein a plurality of pipes for blowing in an inert gas are embedded and placed in a molten metal nozzle made of a refractory material. These pipes can be connected to a gas chamber which is provided along the periphery of the outer wall of the nozzle and is connected to a gas supply source. Again, the tubes are inserted into borings provided in the nozzle.
  • the inventors of this invention have made extensive studies and researches to solve the various problems innate in the known systems, and as the result, they have been successful in developing a novel inert gas injecting plate brick or insert nozzle brick for use in a sliding gate valve apparatus of molten metal, which brick is of quite different idea from the known systems.
  • the object underlying the present invention is to provide an inert gas injecting plate brick or insert nozzle brick for use in a sliding gate valve appratus of molten metal which can be produced in a simple process and offers a high reliability in operation for supplying gas.
  • an inert gas injecting plate brick or insert nozzle brick of the type specified above which is characterized in that the plate brick or insert nozzle brick is horizontally split into at least two parts which form split surfaces between each other, in that a plurality of small diameter pipes are provided which are sealingly arranged and secured in the respective split surfaces, and in that the small-diameter pipes are in communication with an external connecting port to a gas source and have their injecting openings opening into a melt passing hole.
  • the small-diameter pipes are bundled in a group or a plurality of groups which communicate with the connecting port of a gas source and the melt passing hole.
  • the small-diameter pipes are disposed along lines which, when viewed from above, extend perpendicularly or angularly with respect to the melt passing hole, wherein the small-diameter pipes are provided in planes which are perpendicular or inclined with respect to the melt passing hole so that they open horizontally and/or obliquely upwards and/or downwards into the melt passing hole.
  • the small-diameter pipes are made of metal or ceramic.
  • the brick is provided with at least one through hole each of which is provided with small-diameter pipes for injecting gas.
  • one of the parts is provided with grooves receiving the plurality of small-diameter pipes, and the other of the parts opposite thereto is formed without grooves.
  • the present invention is technically constituted such that a plate brick or insert nozzle brick for use in an apparatus of discharging molten metal is split into at least two parts horizontally, said split surfaces are provided with a number of small diameter pipes (2) in the sealed state, and said pipes are secured to said split surface, and said small diameter pipes are communicated with a gas passing portion.
  • Fig. 1 shows an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a bottom plate brick.
  • said plate brick is split into bricks 3 and 4, a number of small-diameter pipes 2 each having a connecting port 1 to the gas source are involved and arranged in the jointing surfaces of said split bricks 3 and 4, and gas injecting openings 5 of said small-diameter pipes 2 in group communicate with the melt passing hole.
  • Fig. 2 is similar in construction to Fig. 1, and it is an embodiment in which the gas injecting direction of the small-diameter pipe 2 is brought close to the normal direction of the outer periphery of the melt passing hole.
  • Fig. 2 is similar to Fig. 1 in other constitution.
  • Fig. 3a is a plan view showing an assembling mode of the group of said small-diameter pipes 2, and Fig. 3b shows a sectional view of the group of said small-diameter pipes 2 in the bound state.
  • Fig. 4 is an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to an insert nozzle brick.
  • the insert nozzle brick is split into bricks 3 and 4, a group of the small-diameter pipes 2 are involved and arranged, similarly to the above, in the split surfaces, and gas injecting openings 5 communicate with the melt passing hole.
  • Fig. 5 is a sectional view where respective parts in the embodiment of Fig. 1 are separately shown thereby to exemplify their arranging relationship.
  • Fig. 6 shows an embodiment in which the insert nozzle brick is split into three parts (3, 3' and 4), and the gas injecting openings 5 are disposed in two rows of upward and horizontal directions in the melt passing hole.
  • Fig. 7 shows an embodiment in which similarly, the insert nozzle brick is split into three parts (3, 3' and 4), and the injecting openings 5 are disposed also in two rows up and down.
  • a plate brick or an insert nozzle brick which is used in a sliding gate valve apparatus of molten metal is split into two or more parts, several slender stainless or copper pipes are arranged in the split surfaces toward the nozzle opening, and thereafter the split plate bricks or insert nozzle bricks are adhered with mortar or the like.
