Mittels dieser bekannten Positioniereinrichtung kann die mit einer Laval-Düse bestückte Injektionslanze zum Eintrag von Sauerstoff in einem in eine Schmelzzone einmündenden Einbringkanal eines Schmelzofens in Form eines Schachtofens eines Kupolofens, so positioniert werden, dass ein optimaler Sauerstoffeintrag in das in der Schmelzzone befindliche Koksbett erfolgt, wobei eine durch thermische Einflüsse der Schmelzzone verursachte Beschädigung der Injektionslanze, beispielsweise eine Verzunderung, dadurch verhindert wird, dass die Injektionslanze zur Eintragsdüse bzw. dem in der Schmelzzone des Schachtofens befindlichen Koksbett mit einem Sicherheitsabstand von 15 bis 20 mm angeordnet ist.A generic same positioning device for an oxygen injection lance is off DE 196 46 802 A 1 known. By means of this known positioning, the with a Laval nozzle equipped injection lance for the entry of oxygen in one entering a molten zone inlet channel of a melting furnace in the form a shaft furnace of a cupola, so positioned to be optimal Oxygen is introduced into the coke bed located in the molten zone, wherein a Damage caused by thermal influences of the molten zone Injection lance, for example, a scaling, thereby preventing the Injection lance to the entry nozzle or in the melting zone of the shaft furnace located coke bed with a safety margin of 15 to 20 mm is.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Positioniereinrichtung für Injektionslanzen zur Verfügung zu stellen, mittels welcher die Injektionslanze in dem in die Schmelzzone einmündenden Einbringkanal so positioniert werden kann, dass ein optimaler Eintrag von Einsatz- und Brennstoffen sowie Oxidationsmitteln in die Schmelzzone sowie ein selbsttätiges Verfahren der Injektionslanze aus der Schmelzzone möglich ist.The invention is therefore based on the object, a positioning device for To provide injection lances, by means of which the injection lance in the can be positioned in the molten zone inlet channel so that an optimal entry of inputs and fuels as well as oxidizing agents in the Melting zone and an automatic method of injection lance from the Melting zone is possible.

Nach Beendigung des Eintrags von gasförmigen Einsatz- und Brennstoffen sowie von dem Oxidationsmittel in die Schmelzzone wird die Injektionslanze durch den von der Federaufhängung entgegen der Eintragsrichtung auf die Injektionslanze ausgeübten Federdruck selbsttätig wieder aus dem die Lanzenfunktion schädigenden Bereich der Schmelzzone in den Einbringkanal in eine Ruheposition zurückgezogen.After completion of the entry of gaseous fuels and from the oxidizing agent into the melting zone, the injection lance is replaced by the one from the spring suspension against the entry direction on the injection lance exerted spring pressure automatically back from the lance function damaging Retracted area of the molten zone in the introduction channel in a rest position.

Zur Gewährleistung einer wirbelfreien, homogenen Gasströmung ist der Ringspalt in zwei unterschiedliche, in Länge und Durchmesser variable Einlaufstrecken T und E unterteilt. Im Ergebnis von Versuchen wurde ermittelt, dass es besonders vorteilhaft ist, die Länge der Einlaufstrecke E größer als das Fünffache des Durchmessers DL der Injektionslanze 2 und die Länge der Einlaufstrecke T größer als den Ringspaltdurchmesser s zu wählen.The injection lance 2 formed with a variable diameter DL has a the gaseous injection medium (fuels and oxidizing agents, in particular pure oxygen or oxygen-containing gas mixture) into the melting zone of the melting furnace conducting annular gap with a variable diameter s. To ensure a vortex-free, homogeneous gas flow, the annular gap is in two different in length and diameter variable inlet sections T and E. divided.

Mittels der nunmehr in Betriebsposition befindlichen Injektionslanze 2 wird über den Ringspaltdurchmesser s und dessen stirnseitige Düse/n das gasförmige Medium in die Schmelzzone des Schmelzofens eingetragen. Nach Beendigung des Eintragvorgangs wird die nunmehr nicht mehr durch das Injektionsmedium druckbeaufschlagte Injektionslanze 2 durch die entgegengesetzt zur Eintragungsrichtung wirkende Federkraft der Federaufhängung 3 innerhalb der Schlittenkammer 5 des Führungsgehäuses 1 der Positioniereinrichtung um eine die Beschädigung oder Zerstörung der Injektionslanze 2 durch thermische Einflüsse aus der Schmelzzone verhindernde Distanz L in eine Ruheposition 2a aus der Schmelzzone in den Einbringkanal zurückgezogen.The from a gas source at a pressure of about 0.25 to about 1 bar with a flow rate of 25 to 55 Nm 3 / h through an annular opening 1 a in the guide housing 1 in the means of the positioning in a merging into a molten zone of a melting furnace Injection channel axially movable injection lance 2 introduced, gaseous injection medium generated when flowing through the annular gap in the annular gap diameter s acting in the flow direction pressure through which the injection lance 2 by means of the injection lance 2 centrally arranged guide installation 4 within the carriage chamber 5 of the guide housing 1 to a safety distance of 15-20 mm is moved axially to the nozzle edge or to the coke bed located in the molten zone. By means of the injection lance 2, which is now in the operating position, the gaseous medium is introduced into the melting zone of the melting furnace via the annular gap diameter s and its end nozzle (s). After completion of the entry process, the injection lance 2, which is now pressurized by the injection medium, is prevented from damaging or destroying the injection lance 2 by thermal influences from the molten zone due to the spring force of the spring suspension 3 acting counter to the entry direction within the carriage chamber 5 of the guide housing 1 of the positioning device Distance L in a rest position 2a withdrawn from the molten zone in the introduction channel.

Das Führungsgehäuse 1 und der Führungseinbau 4 bestehen bevorzugt aus Edelstahl, ebenso wie die mit der Injektionslanze 2 und dem Führungsgehäuse 1 verbundene, vorzugsweise als Spiralfeder ausgebildete Federaufhängung 3.The guide housing 1 and the guide installation 4 are preferably made Stainless steel, as well as with the injection lance 2 and the guide housing. 1 connected, preferably designed as a spiral spring suspension 3
