(Cl. 2GB-34) 4 Claims.
The present invention relates generally to the art of handling and mixing fluids and is more particularly concerned with novel and very useful and economical apparatus for delivering a fluid in jet form into contact with a relatively large body of molten metal. l
This invention is addressed to the problem of delivering oxygen into molten steel in an electric furnace or an open hearth furnace. Despite the advantages of increased production rates and fuel savings to be gained through the use of elemental oxygen in such steel processing furnaces, the operation has not, to the best of my knowledge, been successfully carried out on a commercial scale prior to the present invention. This failure of the art to use oxygen and obtain the advantages which it offers is attributable in substantial part to the fact that no suitable lance means has heretofore been developed. Oneof the principal shortcomings of the lances of the art has been their inability to withstand for any reasonable length of time the eifects of the high temperatures obtaining in steel processing furnaces. Suitable means of supporting and positioning the lances has also been a problem in this connection.
These difculties can, by virtue of this invention, now be fully met and disposed of in an economical and very practical manner. Furthermore, the devices hereof are easily constructed and capable of serving effectively over heretofore impossibly long periods in close proximity to high temperature masses. Additionally, when maintenance, replacement or repair is necessary upon these devices, it can be effected easily and quickly and at small material and labor cost. The supporting structure for the lance of this invention, furthermore, is so .designed and constructed that it may be secured directly to the furnace in a temporary or permanent manner and the lance may be disposed at any of a number of levels with respect to the furnace melt by adjustment of such supporting structure, the security of the lance being assured at al1 times regardless of its position. The advantages of convenience and safety consequently are uniquely combined in this structure of our invention.
Upon consideration of the drawings accompanying and forming a of this specification and the following detailed description of the present invention in a preferred form, those skilled in the art will detect still further desirable characteristics and advantages of this invention and will gain a clearer understanding of its salient features.
Referring to the drawings,
Figure 1 is a fragmentary, side elevational view partly in section of a lance and lance supporting structure embodying the present invention; v
Figure 2 is an elevational View taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Figure 3 is a fragmentary, enlarged side elevational view partly in section of the lance shown in Fig. 1; and
Figure 4 is an enlarged fragmentary cross sectional view of the leading or nozzle end of the lance of Fig. 1.
The illustrated lance comprises a nested tube assembly which includes an inner tube I0 having an externally threaded inlet end l l, an inten mediate tube l2 surrounding the tube il! over a portion of its length but stopping short of the ends thereof and having an externally threaded end portion I3 adjacent to the inlet end i i of the inner tube. An outer or casing tube I5 extends a short distance beyond the outlet end of tube Ill and terminates at its other end short of, 'but near, the threaded end of tube i2. Tube il] be connected to a suitable source of oxygen (not shown) by means (also not shown) such as a conduit and coupling joined to threaded end il. The threaded end of tube I2 may be connected to a stuffing box (not shown) of conventional form to allow for expansion of the inner tube under the influence of the heat of the furnace in which the lance is used.
Adjacent to their outlet ends, tube Iii, l2 and l5 are turned off at an angle of about 60 degrees to their longer sections so that oxygen may readily be delivered generally downwardly into a molten bath while the major portion of the lance is disposed substantially horizontally.
Adjacent to the threaded end of tube l2, an inlet opening il is provided through which cooling water may be delivered when the lance is in use, a short length of pipe I8 being welded to the tube around said opening to facilitate connection of tube Il to a suitable source (not shown) of cooling fluid under pressure. An outlet opening 2i) for the cooling water is in turn provided in tube I5 adjacent to its cold end and again a pipe 2l is secured to tube I5 around said opening to facilitate transference of water from within the lance to a receiving vessel (not shown) Spacers 25 and it comprising metal lugs are tack welded to tube lil and l2, respectively, and bear against opposing surface portions of tubes i2 and I5, respectively. The said tubes 4thereby are held in uniform spaced relation throughout their lengths, tube l2 and l5 being disposed apart approximately twice as far as tubes il) and l2. In order that the Vflow of cooling water through the lance can be as free and rapid as necessary to protect the lance from the heat to which it ordinarily will be subjected in use, spacers 25 and 2b are limited in size and number as far as pos sible and are arranged in staggered relation.
At the nozzle end oi tube I acopper plug 39 having a threaded axial aperture 3l is disposed, closing the opening defined in said end of the tube and receiving in the inner end of aperture 3l the outlet end of pipe il). Plug 3! is brazed to the tubes le and i5, the latter bearing against an annular shoulder dened by the outer peripheral portion of the plug. A replaceable tube S5, preferably of steel but suitably of other metal of suiciently high melting point for the purpose, such as copper, is secured to the nested tube assembly, having an externally threaded end portion 3S screwed into aperture 3l of plug Sil. This nozzle tube 35 is preferably of the same internal diameter as tube ID and cooperates therewith to denne a substantially continuous passageway of uniform diameter. The outside surface of the leading or nozzle portion of the nested tube as-y sembly, as Well as of tube 35, is provided with a coat 35 of asbestos or refractory cement for heat insulating purposes. y
The lance supporting structure mentioned above comprises a bracket lil having a bifurcated lower portion 4l and a transversely extending, outwardly projecting ange #i3 on its upper portion. Flange 43 is apertured to receive pins or bolts 46 secured, as by welding, to the flange so that the bracket may be fastened or hung temporarily on a furnace. On the opposite side of the bracket from iiange i3 are a pair of spaced apart, opposed, longitudinally extending `flanges 45, the lower portions of which are provided with a plurality of slots 48 registered in pairs to re ceive a pin 5D serving as an axle for a grooved pulley wheel 5| on which the lance may bear, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Thus, the lance may be run forward or drawn back from the furnace without lifting effort on the part of the attendant, and when the position of the lance is to be shifted, Wheel 5l with its axle Si! may be with drawn from its original position and placed in another pair of registered apertures to provide the desired increase or decrease in elevation of nozzle tube 35, the lance as a whole being retained in the bracket and shifted from one position to another as Wheel 5| is moved to obtain the desired results.
Having thus described the present invention so that those skilled in the art may be able to understand and practice the same, we state that what we desire to secure by Letters Patent is defined in what is claimed.
