Definitions
- the invention relates to an automatic lance changing device, in particular for lances to be coupled and fastened to a vertically displaceable lance carrier in the manufacture of steel by means of an inflation process, with a coupling head on the lance carrier carriage containing the materials required for freshening and possibly also a cooling fluid , are fed and transferred at the coupling point between the coupling head and the upper part of the lance, and the coupling and attachment of the lances to the coupling head of the lance carrier carriage is carried out by means of two diametrically opposite coupling pins on the upper part of the lance.
- Document LU-69797 has disclosed a new type of lance of the above-mentioned type, which has the great advantage over the prior art that despite the presence of a plurality of channels for the supply of said substances and fluids through a single one Operation can be connected to the associated coupling head, which operation in the described embodiment consists of the manual fastening of a pivot pin connection on each side of the upper part of the lance.
- the upper part of the lance has a flange with two diametrically opposed, laterally open fastening openings for interacting with the two pivot bolts.
- an automatic lance changing device is described in document LU-86985. which is especially intended for lances. which are not provided on their upper part with a coupling 1f1, but with two, preferably diametrically opposite coupling couplings.
- the automation device described in the above-mentioned document LU-86985 works perfectly, it is not so much the object of the invention to remedy any shortcomings of the prior art, but rather it is the task of the user of the fresh lances mentioned at the outset when choosing the one for his to provide a further possibility of providing an optimal automation solution for a specific application, in particular in the case of lances with the mentioned coupling pins.
- the device according to the invention has the advantage over the device described in document LU-86985 for lances with coupling pins that the actuating mechanism is less complex.
- FIG. 1 the front view of a section through one of the two fastening mechanisms for a lance with coupling pin arranged on both sides of the coupling head indicated in thin solid lines;
- FIG. 2 shows a side view of the object from FIG. 1 in viewing direction A.
- a vertically displaceable fastening hook 4 which in FIG. 1 is mounted on the left at the indicated coupling head 6 for the viewer, is in its highest position in the two figures, in which it lugs the lance, the upper part 8 of which is indicated, with the aid of its coupling 10 presses against the coupling head 6.
- an identical arrangement is provided on the right on the coupling head 6.
- the hooks 4 are not designed for an actual pivoting movement to release the
- Coupling head 6 is released; it can now be picked up and removed by a transfer device, not shown, such as is indicated, for example, in FIG. 3 of document LU-86985.
- the said or a second transfer device now brings a new lance 8 and hangs it with it
- a great advantage of the invention resides in the simplicity of the device for generating the vertical hook movements. It is an eccentric device on both sides of the coupling head, each consisting of an eccentric body 12, which is supported by means of roller bearings 14 on a bolt 16 fastened to the coupling head 6.
- the hooks 4 are also mounted on the circular, eccentric contour of the eccentric body 12 by means of roller bearings 18.
- Figure 1 it can be seen that the larger wall thickness 20 of the eccentric body 12 is in the operating state shown above and the smaller wall thickness 22 is below. Of course, this corresponds to the hook position for pressing the lance against the coupling head.
- a swivel arm 24 is flanged onto the same, which in a preferred embodiment of the invention is actuated by a pneumatic cylinder (not shown) and also in

Abstract
Couplage automatique permettant de coupler les lances utilisées lors de la préparation de l'acier à la tête d'accouplement d'un porte-lance, les matières et liquides de refroidissement nécessaires arrivant dans la lance par la tête d'accouplement. L'accouplement se fait par l'intermédiaire de crochets d'accouplement (4) prévus sur la tête d'accouplement (6), positionnés sur des excentriques (12) et se déplaçant verticalement lorsque ces excentriques (12) sont actionnés.Automatic coupling for coupling the lances used in preparing steel to the coupling head of a lance carrier, with the necessary materials and coolants entering the lance through the coupling head. The coupling takes place by means of coupling hooks (4) provided on the coupling head (6), positioned on eccentrics (12) and moving vertically when these eccentrics (12) are actuated.
