As a result, the pressure in the furnace top bunker 10 decreases with respect to the pressure in the vertical furnace, which may affect the operation of the vertical furnace.
  • the residual ore is treated as follows.

  • the raw material remaining on the bottom surface portion 92 of the movable portion 70 falls according to the evacuation of the movable portion 70.
  • the inclination angle of the bottom surface portion 92 is larger than that at the intermediate position, so that more raw materials can be dropped on the bottom surface portion 92.
  • the raw material dropped at this time passes through the discharge port 62, the switching chute 14, and the raw material input port 40, and is charged into the furnace top bunker 10. Further, by moving the movable portion 70 to the evacuation position, it becomes possible to receive a larger amount of residual ore when the movable portion 70 is subsequently moved to the receiving position.
  • the control unit 32 transmits a receiving position command for moving the movable unit 70 to the receiving position to the movable unit driving device 28.
  • the predetermined time here corresponds to the time for the movable portion 70 to stay in the retracted position.
  • the predetermined time is set to a time during which the raw material on the bottom surface portion 92 can be sufficiently dropped, and is movable until the end of the raw material moves from the raw material detection unit 24 to the raw material input side end of the conveyor 20. The time at which the unit 70 can reach the receiving position via the retracting position is set.
