Definitions

  • the invention relates first of all to a protective device for a pouring jet emerging from a pouring device, with a pouring jet protection tube and with a bearing ring which surrounds the pouring jet protection tube at an upper inlet end, a collar of the pouring jet protection tube rests on the bearing ring, and with a fastening means for the bearing ring which is attached to the casting device, wherein a spring element presses the bearing ring against the pouring cone.
  • the invention also relates to a method for holding a pouring jet protection tube on a casting device, a bearing ring encompassing the pouring jet protection tube at an upper inlet end and a collar of the pouring jet protection tube resting on the bearing ring, and wherein the bearing ring with the pouring jet protection tube is fastened to a fastening means by means of a handling device , which is attached to the casting device that a spring element presses the bearing ring against the pouring cone.
  • the pouring stream emerging from the pouring ladle is encased in a ceramic pouring stream protection tube.
  • the pouring jet protection tube is attached to the pouring cone immediately before pouring, rinsed with oxygen after pouring and reused several times.
  • a protective device and a method of the type mentioned in the introduction are known from, for example AT 514848 A1 :
  • the bearing ring of the pouring jet protection tube is inserted into a holder via a bayonet lock, which in turn is pressed against the pouring device by means of helical springs.
  • WO 2015/055569 A1 and US 2010/0244335 A1 disclose further adapters for attaching a pouring jet protection tube to a pouring cone under spring force.
  • the closing and opening of the bayonet lock requires a high-precision rotation of the bearing ring with the pouring jet protection tube around a vertical axis.
  • the invention is based on the object of simplifying the handling of the protective device.
  • the spring element be attached to the bearing ring in an articulated manner and displaceable in a longitudinal direction and displaced in the longitudinal direction and attached to the fastening means in such a way that it presses the bearing ring against the pouring cone (28).
  • the displaceable spring element takes over the holding function of the handling device during casting. There is no need for complex control and monitoring of the handling device during casting. The handling of the protective device is thus significantly simplified.
  • the fastening means which are individually adapted to the casting device according to the invention, enable the same spring element to be used on different casting devices.
  • the fastening means is preferably attached to a ladle slide under the pouring cone.
  • the ladle slide has sufficient stability to support the pouring jet protection tube.
  • the fastening means can be attached to the casting device, for example with a separate support structure.
  • a protective device preferably has an adapter on the handling device which receives the bearing ring.
  • the use of an adapter that is individually adapted to the handling device enables the same fastening means to be used with different handling devices.
  • Such a protective device according to the invention preferably has a conical receiving element on the adapter, on which the bearing ring can pass Dead weight is centered.
  • a conical receiving element on the adapter, on which the bearing ring can pass Dead weight is centered.
  • Such conical, in particular pyramid-shaped receiving elements are known on agricultural vehicles, for example on tractors, and allow attachments to be changed quickly - here: the pouring jet protection tube.
  • a protective device preferably has a drive by means of which the spring element can be fastened to the casting device.
  • the drive can in particular have one or more hydraulic, pneumatic or mechanical cylinders. Such a drive eliminates the need to manually fasten the spring element directly to the casting device in the high-risk area.
  • a protective device preferably has a releasable bolt which prevents the bearing ring from becoming detached from the handling device.
  • Such bolts are also known on agricultural vehicles and prevent the unintentional detachment of an attachment - here: the pouring jet protection tube - from the receiving element.
  • the spring element be attached to the bearing ring (1) in an articulated manner and displaceable in a longitudinal direction and displaced in the longitudinal direction (7) and attached to the fastening means in such a way that it attaches the bearing ring (1 ) pressed against the pouring cone (28).
  • the method according to the invention likewise has the advantages of the protective device according to the invention.
  • a method for operating a pouring device is proposed, with a pouring jet protection tube being held by the pouring cone before the pouring process on the pouring device and, after the spring element has been fastened, the handling device is detached from the bearing ring, the bearing ring with the pouring jet protection pipe on the pouring device during pouring remains held and after the pouring the handling device releases the bearing ring with the pouring jet protection tube from the pouring device.
  • the handling device is like this during the pouring process not part of the protective device. The effort for control and monitoring is significantly reduced and the handling device can even be used elsewhere during casting - for example on a different casting device.
  • the in Figure 1a The bearing ring 1 shown has an upwardly open, circumferentially closed receiving funnel 2 for a (only in the Fig. 3ff . shown) pouring jet protection tube 3.
  • a downwardly open, pyramidal conical recess 4 is formed on the circumference of the receiving funnel 2.
  • the bearing ring 1 has a radial blind hole 5.
  • a rectangularly curved spring element 6 made of spring steel is attached in an articulated manner and displaceable in the longitudinal direction 7.
  • the adapter 8 shown has at the rear end 9 of a square tubular carrier 10 a flange plate 11 for attachment to a handling device (not shown) and at the front end 12 a pyramid-shaped conical receiving element 13, matching the recess 4 on the bearing ring 1.
  • the adapter 8 has two guide elements 14 attached to the carrier 10 on both sides.
  • the guide elements 14 each have an upwardly open groove 15, are connected to a bolt 16 and are attached to the carrier 10 by means of two electromechanical cylinders 17 about a pivot axis 18 pivotable.
  • In the hollow carrier 10 there is also a (only in the sectional view in Figure 3 visible) bolt 19 attached longitudinally displaceable.
  • the adapter 8 mounted on a handling device (pouring device and handling device are not shown) is first guided with the receiving element 13 into the recess 4 and the bolt 19 into the blind hole 5 of the bearing ring 1 moved.
  • the bearing ring 1 is firmly connected to the adapter 8 in this way.
  • the fastening means 20 shown has a rectangular carrier plate 21 with a central bore 22 and on the underside 23 a double hook 24 at the front and a single hook 25 at the rear, each of which is open to the rear.
  • the double hooks 24 and the single hook 25 each have an upwardly rising guide surface 26 and the single hook 25 has a latching groove 27 transverse to the guide surface 26.
  • the fastening means 20 is attached to the pouring device in such a way that a (only in the Fig. 3ff . illustrated) pouring cone 28 penetrates the central bore 22.
  • the fastening means 20 can be screwed onto a ladle slide (not shown) of the casting device.
  • the Figures 3 and 4 a to e show the pouring jet protection tube 3 attached to the pouring cone 28 and the adapter 8 in a position shortly after Latching of the rear 30 of the spring element 6 in the locking groove 27 on the fastening means 20:
  • the spring element 6 is supported on the double hook 24 and the single hook 25 of the fastening means 20 downwards and on the pouring cone 28 upwards and is thus supported between the fastening means 20 and the
  • the pouring cone 28 is braced so that it presses the bearing ring 1 and thus the pouring jet protection tube 3 upwards onto the pouring cone 28.
  • the spring element 6 compensates for wear on the pouring jet protection tube 3 by tracking over a vertical spring travel 31 of up to several centimeters.
  • the bolt 19 in the adapter 8 is first withdrawn from the blind hole 5 of the bearing ring 1 and the bearing ring 1 is thus released from the adapter 8.
  • the adapter 8 is now removed downward from the recess 4 on the bearing ring 1 by means of the handling device.
  • the adapter 8 with its receiving element 13 is reinserted into the recess 4 on the bearing ring 1 in the opposite direction by means of the handling device and firmly connected to the bearing ring 1 by means of the bolt 19. Then, by means of the guide elements 14, the spring element 6 is pulled from the double hooks 24 and the single hook 25 and thus the bearing ring 1 with the pouring jet protection tube 3 is detached from the fastening means 20 and the pouring device.
  • the bearing ring 1 with the pouring jet protection tube 3 is removed from the pouring cone 28 downwards and moved by means of the handling device to a further processing station, at which the pouring jet protection tube 3 is cleaned of slag with oxygen and, if necessary, replaced and finally sent back to the pouring device for another pouring guided.
