Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bottom electrode for metallurgical melting vessels such as arc melting furnaces, resistance melting furnaces or ladle furnaces, with contact elements, which ensure the electrical power supply through the refractory lining of the melting vessel into the melt, wherein below a support plate at a distance a cooling plate is arranged, whereby one with a cooling medium permeable cooling space is formed.
  • EP 0 058 817 B1 describes a bottom electrode with a support plate arranged below the bottom of the furnace, with a base plate being attached at a distance from the support plate, to which the electrode necks are directly connected.
  • the space between the support plate and the base plate has a central air inlet opening to the star-shaped curved baffles are arranged. In this way, air circulation is brought about for cooling in a simple manner.
  • the cooling fins are also attached to the cooling plate, for example by welding, so that in addition to the improved heat dissipation additionally has the advantage of already installing the power connection to the cooling plate. Here then take over the cooling fins power transport to Support plate.
  • the contact elements are formed in two parts of commercial profile iron with a thicker base, the length of which can be adapted to the particular conditions of use and is preferably 200 to 400 mm, and serving as a wearing part thinner upper part, which dips into the melt and the actual electrical Connects to the melt.
  • This thin top is welded onto the thicker part.
  • the length of the upper part depends on the lining thickness and is selected so that the upper end dips into the melt and thus establishes the electrical connection to the melt. After Verschältice of refractory material and shell the old weld is separated and welded a new shell.
  • the heat input into the carrier plate is advantageously improved, and the separation between this reinforced lower part and the wearable upper part and its renewal are simplified.
  • a gaseous or a liquid medium can be used as a cooling medium, which flows through the cooling space. It is possible according to the invention, in particular when using a liquid as a cooling medium to use the cooling medium at the same time for cooling the furnace vessel, which can be shared with advantage, for example, necessary funding; However, the prerequisite is that the furnace vessel is designed with a double jacket.
  • the figure shows a bottom electrode 1 with a cooling space 4 according to the invention.
  • a cooling plate 5 is arranged at a distance, whereby formed between the support plate 2 and the cooling plate 5 of the cooling chamber 4, which can be flowed through by a preferably fluid cooling medium.
  • cooling ribs 6 are welded to the carrier plate 2, by means of which the cooling surface is significantly enlarged and the cooling effect is correspondingly increased.
  • the cooling fins 6 are also firmly connected to the cooling plate 5, whereby an additional cooling effect is achieved. Since there is thus a direct metallic contact between the cooling plate 5 and the carrier plate 2, this contact can also be used for power line.
  • the current is supplied via a power supply line 9 via a pipe 8 arranged on the contact jaw 7 of the bottom electrode 1.
  • the current flows from the contact jaw 7 via the tube 8 to the cooling plate 5, on via the cooling fins 6 to the support plate 2, from which the contact elements 3 produce the current flow to the melt.
  • the cooling medium can be fed centrally from below through the tube 8 to the cooling chamber 4 and then discharged via lateral openings 10 again; but it is also possible to use the side openings 10 for the supply and discharge of the cooling medium.
  • the cooling fins 6 are shaped and aligned accordingly to achieve the greatest possible cooling effect at the lowest possible flow resistance.
  • the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment, but is also applicable to other embodiments of bottom electrodes, as far as the constructive possibility exists to provide a cooling space by arranging a cooling plate.
