Abstract

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Aufspritzen von Beiz- und/oder Spülflüssigkeit 11 auf ein Behandlungsgut 12, insbesondere Stahlband oder Metallband mit einem Düsenrohr in dessen Wandung auf das Behandlungsgut gerichtete Spritzdüsen integriert sind, wobei das Düsenrohr ein geschlossenes Ende und ein offenes Ende aufweist, letzteres zum Zuführen der Beiz- und/oder Spülflüssigkeit in das Düsenrohr. Um eine Vergleichmäßigung der Verteilung der Beiz- und Spülflüssigkeit auf dem Behandlungsgut zu erzielen, ist erfindungsgemäß ein Zuführungsrohr 17 vorgesehen, welches im Bereich der Spritzdüsen im Innern des Düsenrohres so angeordnet ist, dass eines der beiden offenen Enden des Zuführungsrohres dem geschlossenen Ende des Düsenrohres beabstandet gegenüber steht.

The invention relates to a device and a method for spraying pickling and / or rinsing liquid 11 on a 12 to be treated, in particular steel strip or metal strip with a nozzle tube in the wall on the treated material directed spray nozzles are integrated, wherein the nozzle tube has a closed end and an open end, the latter for supplying the pickling and / or rinsing liquid into the nozzle tube. In order to achieve a homogenization of the distribution of pickling and rinsing liquid on the material to be treated, a feed tube 17 is provided according to the invention, which is arranged in the region of the spray nozzles in the interior of the nozzle tube so that one of the two open ends of the feed tube spaced from the closed end of the nozzle tube opposite.
