| 20100252967 | Injector for Arc Furnace - The present invention relates to an injector for an arc furnace. The injector comprises a head suitable to face into the furnace and a body suitable to support the head. The head and body are manufactured separately from each other, and are fastened by means of removable connection means in order to implement said injector. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20080251231 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE CONTINUOUS CASTING OF PRELIMINARY STEEL SECTIONS - In a method and apparatus for the continuous casting of preliminary steel sections, the liquid or molten steel is introduced substantially vertically into an open-ended die. The cross section of the cavity of the die is made up of a web part and one or more flange parts, for example, such as in preliminary double-T sections. The liquid core of the strand of the preliminary section is set in agitating motions transversely to the direction of continuous casting by selectively using electromagnetically-induced forces in the regions of the flange parts and/or of the web part. The agitating motions have the effect of exchanging the liquid steel in the molten crater of the strand of the preliminary section in and between flange parts and the web part. This allows the flow and temperature conditions in the liquid steel crater within the strand of the preliminary section to be actively influenced in a targeted manner and stabilization of the region of the surface of the liquid metal to be brought about, along with favorable and controllable flow conditions. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20080230202 | CONTINUOUS CASTING PLANT - The invention relates to a continuous casting installation, for example for steel billet and bloom formats having substantially rectangular or circular cross-section. The invention improves the strand structure in the corner areas, to avoid rhomboidity, cracks and dimensional imperfections of the strand cross-section while achieving a high throughput capacity per strand and reducing investment and running costs. The fillets of the groove curvatures in the die cavity amount to a proportion of the length of the side of the strand cross-section. The degree of curvature 1/R of the groove curvatures decreases in the direction of the strand at least along at least partial length of the entire casting die, thereby achieving gap elimination between the casting shell and the casting die wall and/or a targeted casting shell shaping in the area of the groove curvature. The continuous casting installation, directly downstream of the casting die, may thus be provided with a strand support-free secondary cooling zone or a supporting guide in the secondary cooling zone that is reduced in its supporting width and/or supporting length. | 09-25-2008 |
