Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for coating the surface of steel strip with a metallic coating, in which the material is passed without a reversal of direction through a container which holds the molten coating material and which has a passage channel enclosed by an electric field below the molten pool level, in the opening region of which in the opening region Melt generates an electromagnetic force of equal or greater magnitude proportional to the product of the cross-sectional area of the inlet opening and the metallostatic pressure, vectorially opposed to the metallostatic pressure, and in which the length of stay of the strip in the melt can be controlled independently of the throughput speed of the strip.
- Plants for coating the surface of strip material are known as so-called hot-dip galvanizing or dip-coating coatings, in which the strip to be coated is introduced obliquely under protective gas from above into the container holding the coating medium and is deflected around a deflection roller within the weld pool.
- the diverted good usually leaves the molten bath container in a vertical direction by means of suitable devices, where the coating material, for example zinc, adhering to the strip surface is adjusted and evened out in thickness.
- Such devices e.g. B. in the form of nozzle knives, hold back excess coating material, so that a uniformly thick smooth surface is generated.
- the known systems have disadvantages.
- the belt deflection in the melted coating material can lead to unstable belt running and slipping of the belt on the roll and impair the quality of the coated belt.
- the roller journals and bearings stored in the bathroom wear out quickly and have to be changed frequently, which always leads to downtimes of the entire system.
- the wear of the pins and bearings can lead to vibrations of the belt and to a change in the distance between the belt and stripping nozzles, which adversely affects the uniformity of the coating over the belt length and width.
- the deflection of the belt within the container requires a container with a large volume with a correspondingly large amount of coating material. On the one hand, this makes it very difficult to control the dwell time of the strip in the bath, and on the other hand, filling and emptying the container to change the coating material is very time-consuming.
- Plants for coating strand-like material are also known, in which the material is passed through the molten coating material in a horizontal or vertical direction (FR-A 22 29 782 and EP-B1-00 60 225).
- Systems of this type in which the strand-like material to be coated is passed through or into the molten coating material in areas below the surface of the molten bath, require corresponding seals which prevent the coating material from leaking out of the coating container.
- the device described there consists of a container filled with molten coating material with a bottom through opening for the material to be coated, which is sealed by an electromagnetic pump.
- an immersion body immersed in the molten coating material which also interacts with an electromagnetic pump, the effective height of the molten coating material is regulated and thus the contact time of the continuous strand-like material with the molten coating material is set.
- the electromagnetic pump immersed in the melt with the immersion body is intended to prevent contact of the surface of the strand-like material to be coated with heavily soiled oxides. Even with short contact with the melt, a qualitatively perfect coating was achieved.
- the contact time, the intensity of the contact and the temperature of the material to be coated and the molten coating material also determine the formation and the thickness of the intermetallic intermediate layer formed. This is of great importance for the layer adhesion and the layer quality, especially the formability of the coating.
- the known institutions do not take this into account. Thus, it is not possible with prior art systems to influence the formation of the intermediate layer by means of short-term controlled temperatures of the melt and the material to be coated and short-term changes in the contact times of the material to be coated with the molten coating material.
- the known systems are very expensive to build, with the melt having relatively high levels of contamination by oxides, by iron or in the case of zinc by light and heavy hard zinc, which affect the coating quality.
- the present invention is based on the object of improving the conventional coil coating process in order to specifically achieve favorable intermediate layers for good adhesion and good formability of the coating.
- the surface quality, the layer thickness tolerances and the mechanical properties of the material to be coated should be improved and the contamination of the melt by oxides, iron and hard zinc should be minimized.
- the coating material to be applied should adhere firmly even to non-optimal surfaces of the steel strip. A significant reduction in energy consumption, production costs, maintenance costs and investment costs is just as possible as a quick change of the coating material.
- a device for coating continuously cast material e.g. Copper wire is known, the material being passed vertically from below through a coating container without reversing the direction.
- the coating container is connected to a melting furnace via a connecting pipe.
- a diving bell is provided in the melting furnace, by means of which the melting bath level in the melting furnace can be adjusted. With this immersion bell, the molten pool level in the coating container can also be adjusted indirectly.
- a device according to the invention is proposed, both of which, during the passage of the strand-like material, the molten coating material is held in a movement directed against the surface of the strand-like material and is circulated with the exclusion of atmospheric oxygen. It has been shown that particularly good coating results can be achieved if, according to the proposal of the invention, the molten coating material is kept in motion in the contact area with the surface of the material to be coated, by circulating the coating material in a closed system without contact of the melt with the Oxygen in the air is always fed fresh coating material to the belt. The bath movement also minimizes the size of the hard zinc particles.
- An advantage of the device according to the invention is that the temperatures of the molten coating material and / or the strand-like material can be set at short notice. In this way, the optimal conditions for forming the intermediate layer and for adhering the coating material can be set as required.
- the molten coating material is cleaned of impurities during the circulation. In this way it can be ensured that the impurities, which deteriorate the coating quality, do not come into contact with the material to be coated in the first place.
- the device is characterized in that a pre-melting container is assigned to the coating container holding the molten coating material, between which and the coating container the melt can be circulated with the exclusion of atmospheric oxygen and the volume of the coating container is many times smaller than that of the pre-melting container, preferably in a ratio of 1:10 .
- Such a system of separate coating container and pre-melting container makes it possible to always have fresh, contaminants such.
- B. hard zinc to bring free melt through a suitable distribution system as directly as possible to the surface of the material to be coated, it being possible via the feed paths and with the relatively small coating container to regulate the temperature of the melt briefly within a narrow tolerance range.
- the pre-melting container is suitable for melting the coating material in the form of blocks; in the small volume coating container the level of the molten coating material can be raised and lowered very quickly by pumps.
- the premelting container is arranged laterally below the coating container.
- the coating container be divided into two, an inner container with the through-opening for the strand-like material and an outer container at least partially surrounding the inner container, the container walls of which are higher than those of the inner container, the outer container and the Inner containers are each separately connected to the pre-melting container via supply and discharge channels for the molten coating material.
- An adjustment of the liquid column of the molten coating material can be carried out effectively in that the known immersion body, which surrounds the strand-like material with an electromagnetic seal, can be raised and lowered in the inner container. With the aid of this immersion body, the molten coating material is displaced to the desired bath level, the electromagnetic seal keeping the section of the strand-like material to be coated that passes through the immersion body free of coating material.
- the coating material displaced by the immersion body runs over the container walls of the inner container into the outer container and from there back to the pre-melting container.
- the pre-smear container itself is divided into an open and a closed container part, the feed channel to the inner container of the treatment container being connected to the closed container part and the discharge channel of the outer container being connected to the open container part of the pre-melting container.

With the help of this magnetic pump, which can be raised and lowered in the longitudinal direction of the feed channel, the molten material can be removed Feed the coating material from the closed container part of the pre-melting container into the inner container of the treatment container.
- the open container part of the premelting container is assigned a loading device with which the coating material, for example in block form, can be introduced into the melt, so that the supply of coating material can always be supplemented.
- a return stop for the molten coating material is provided below the through-opening provided for the strand-like material within the channel surrounding the strand-like material, between which and the through-opening a discharge channel leads to the open container part of the pre-melting container is.
- This backstop is provided so that in the event of leakages or the need to quickly drain the treatment container, no melt can get into the feed part of the strand-like material to be coated. Melt that penetrates the through opening can be collected at the backstop and returned to the storage container via the discharge channel.
- the backstop can be closed mechanically, preferably by a slide closure, the slide plate of which is designed as a scissor knife for severing the strand-like material.
- the backstop designed in this way can be used to shear off the belt and at the same time close the passage opening.
- the direction of flow of the strand-like material to be coated can be from bottom to top, but also from top to bottom.

- the coating container 1 has a through channel 3 on the bottom, through which the band 4 can be passed vertically from bottom to top through the coating material.
- the band 4 is coming out of the furnace (not shown), through the so-called furnace trunk by means of the rollers 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
- the furnace trunk is operated under protective gas, ie it is sealed off from the atmospheric oxygen between the furnace and the coating container 1.
- the rollers 9 and 10 ensure that the tape 4 is guided through the slot-shaped through-channel 3 into the treatment container 1 without contact.
- the channel 3 itself is surrounded by a coil 11, in which an electromagnetic field is generated, which in turn generates an electromagnetic force that prevents the melt 2 from flowing out of the container 1.
- the pre-melting container 12 In addition to the coating container, the pre-melting container 12 according to the invention is set up, which holds a much larger volume of liquid zinc than the coating container 1.
- the pre-melting container is connected to the coating container 1 via feed channels 13 and discharge channels 14; the liquid metal is pumped from the prelubrication container 12 into the coating container 1 by means of the pump 15.
- the supply and discharge lines are provided with heating devices 16 with which the temperature of the melt 2 can be adjusted.
- a conventional nozzle knife 17 is arranged above the coating container 1, which ensures a uniform coating thickness of the zinc material, but is not the subject of the present invention.
- the coating container 1 in which the zinc bath 2 is arranged can be seen in an enlarged illustration in FIG.
- the lower through opening 3 is electromagnetically sealed, as can be seen at 11.
- the belt is introduced through the furnace trunk 5 into the coating container 1 under protective gas, the rollers 7 and 8 being designed as S-rollers for applying the necessary tension to the belt, which rollers are also heated and / or cooled.
- the channel 3 in the container 1 can be closed by means of a combined scissor / slide system 18 after the band 4 has been cut.
- the slider 19 is provided with a scissor knife 20 which can be moved with the slider 19 by a piston-cylinder unit 21 (in the plane of the drawing from right to left), cuts the band 4 and at the same time closes the channel 3.

- the through channel 3 for the band 4 is provided, which is sealed in the manner already described by the coil 11 of the electromagnetic seal.
- the feed channels 29 are connected, by means of which the zinc is pumped out of the prelubrication container 12 into the inner container 25 of the coating container 1, as will be described in more detail later.
- the outer container 26 is also connected in the bottom part to discharge channels 30, which are also guided into the pre-smear container 12.
- an immersion body 31 can be lowered and raised in the inner container 25 of the coating container 1 by means of a spindle drive 33, inside which a magnet-hydrodynamic seal encompassing the band 4 is provided.
- the immersion body 31 displaces the coating material 2 in the inner container 25 at the desired height h, the magnetic hydrodynamic seal 34 preventing the coating material 2 from penetrating into the immersion body 34.
- the electromagnetic pump 35 is used to convey the coating material 2 from the pre-greasing container 12. With it, the coating material 2 is conveyed through the feed channel 29 directly into the inner container 25, two feed channels 29 advantageously being arranged on both sides of the belt in such a way that a uniform flow of the coating material 2 on both sides of the hinge. Excess coating material is pumped over the container wall 27 of the inner container 25 after the wetting of the belt surface and runs into the outer container 26. From there it passes back into the pre-lubricating container 12 via the drainage channels 30.
- the pre-smear container 12 is also divided into two container parts, of which one container part 36 is closed and the other container part 37 is open at the top. Both container parts 36, 37 are separated from one another by a wall 38 which is open in the bottom region of the container.
- the closed container part 36 is closed by a cup-shaped cover which dips into the covering material 2 and in which the electromagnetic pump 35 is arranged, which encompasses the feed channel 29.
- the drain channel 30 opens into the open container part from the outer container 26.
- the open-top container part allows the molten coating material 2 to be loaded with blocks 40 of solid coating material, which is supplied via a loading device 41.
- the premelting container 12 can be heated inductively.
- a backstop for molten coating material is provided below the feed-through opening 3, as indicated at 43, which could pass through the feed-through opening 3 in the event of leakages.

- the inner container 25 is closed on the bottom by the magnethydrodynamic seal.
- the magnetic field is directed downward so that no melt can penetrate into the immersion body.
- the desired column of coating material in the inner container 25 can be set very easily and, above all, very quickly.
- the intensive wetting of the strip surface with the melt allows the layer to be formed in the shortest possible time and enables the thickness of the intermetallic layer to be adjusted in a controlled manner.
- the closed, airtight circulation system of the melt 2 and the belt 4 under protective gas excludes the contact of the melt with the atmospheric oxygen and thus reliably prevents oxidation. Since there are no deflecting agents and other metal parts in the weld pool, the formation of light and heavy hard zinc is reduced.
- the pre-melting container 12 with its open part 37 and its closed part 38 acts with the partition 38 like a communicating tube and enables the continuous supply of block-shaped coating material for melting. Hard zinc contaminations of the melting surface can be removed in the open part 37 of the premelt container 12, penetration of the contaminants into the closed part 36 of the premelt container 12 is excluded.
- the invention advantageously enables an optimal coating of strand-like material by means of a molten coating material in the shortest possible contact time with the best adhesive properties.
- the thickness of the intermetallic layer can be easily regulated, and contamination of the melt by iron and oxides is largely avoided.
- the energy expenditure for operating a system is considerably reduced and the quality of the coated material is improved. Downtimes of the system are considerably reduced due to the absence of wear parts (deflection rollers in the melt), so that the economy of the system increases significantly.
