Abstract

PURPOSE:To control the wear of a rotary nozzle and to reduce its exchange frequency by forming the shaft and rotor of the nozzle for agitating molten metal and blowing cleaning gas with a porous ceramic. CONSTITUTION:The shaft 10 and rotor 20 of the rotary nozzle 1 for removing impurities in molten metal (especially molten Al) are formed with a porous ceramic consisting of SiC, Si3N4, Al2O3, etc., and having pores having about 0.1-100mu diameter. The nozzle 1 is dipped in a melt and rotated, and cleaning gas is blown in from a passage 2 and discharged into radical grooves 25 from small holes 26. Consequently, the gas is atomized by notches 24 into fine gas bubbles, and the bubbles are dispersed in the melt and floated. The melt is also agitated by the notch 24, and the melt is positively brought into contact with the gas bubbles. By this method, the inclusion such as gaseous hydrogen and oxides in the melt is removed as impurities. Since the nozzle 1 is formed with a ceramic, the wear and tear are controlled, and the exchange frequency is remarkably reduced.

According to this molten metal processing method, impurities are removed by dispersing and releasing inert gas bubbles as fine as possible into the molten aluminum metal A, and by stirring the molten metal A moderately to bring the molten metal A into active contact with the bubbles. Perform removal. Therefore, dispersing and releasing as fine inert gas bubbles as possible into the molten metal A is a major challenge in molten metal processing, and there are various impurity removal rotary nozzles B suitable for dispersing and releasing the fine inert gas bubbles. Proposed.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, since the conventional rotary nozzle B for removing impurities is made of carbon, there is a problem in heat resistance even if it is used by immersing it in molten aluminum exceeding 700'C. However, it has poor wear resistance and oxidation resistance and is short-lived. That is, even if a carbon rotary nozzle that has been subjected to oxidation-resistant treatment such as impregnated with phosphoric acid is used, oxidation reactions occur and cause a large amount of wear, and friction with the molten metal also causes a relatively large amount of wear.

As a result, the rotating nozzle must be replaced more frequently, which not only reduces processing efficiency but also poses an economical disadvantage.

In addition, in the conventional rotary nozzle B for removing impurities, the radial grooves b3 and the outer peripheral notch b4 formed in the rotor part B2 are used to crush inert gas bubbles to make them fine. The rotary nozzle B for removing impurities must be rotated at a relatively high speed.

However, when the nozzle is rotated at high speed, it not only involves the oxide film on the surface of the hot water, but also disturbs the surface of the hot water and increases the amount of oxidation.Furthermore, the frictional force increases, causing more wear. Ru. To do this, conventionally the nozzle was rotated at low speed,
The miniaturization of inert gas bubbles is compensated for by increasing the flow rate of inert gas. Naturally, therefore, there is a problem that the amount of gas consumed increases and the economic burden increases.

Then, by appropriately stirring the molten metal using the notch 24, a swirling flow is given to the molten metal, and the purified gas microbubbles are mixed into this flow, increasing the residence time until the purified gas bubbles are discharged from the surface of the molten metal. Then, a molten metal treatment is performed in which the purified gas bubbles are brought into active contact with the molten aluminum to remove inclusions such as hydrogen gas and oxides as impurities.
