Definitions
- the invention relates to a gas purging plug for metallurgical vessels with a porous, gas-permeable molded block made of refractory material, a gas-tight partial casing surrounding it, which is formed from a sheet metal jacket extending around the lateral peripheral surface of the molded block and a sheet metal cover covering the outer end face of the molded block, and a gas supply pipe which extends from the underside of the sheet metal cover and which is connected to the sheet metal cover in the region of a gas inlet opening formed in the sheet metal cover and has a narrowed cross section at a distance from the gas inlet opening of the sheet metal cover, an at least one in the pipe section between the sheet metal cover and the narrowed cross section in the axial direction of the gas supply pipe movable closure body is arranged, the cross section of which is smaller than the inner diameter of the gas supply pipe and larger than the narrowed cross section and which correspondingly e in a non-return valve is loaded by a helical compression spring supported on the sheet metal cover in
- the object of the present invention is to provide a gas purging plug of the type mentioned at the outset which, on the one hand, minimizes the risk of melt breakthroughs and, on the other hand, ensures reliable gas supply even with high gas volume flows with a correspondingly high gas pressure.
- This object is achieved in that the gas inlet opening is at least partially arranged outside the pitch circle of the compression spring.
- the solution according to the invention results in a sink which both minimizes the risk of melt breakthroughs and also ensures a gas supply from the gas supply pipe into the sink in the case of a helical compression spring which is completely compressed due to high gas pressure.
- gas inlet opening consists of three bores, the central axes of which are each arranged eccentrically to the central axis of the gas supply pipe.
- the central axes of the bores can preferably lie on a common circle and be evenly spaced from one another.
- valve seat is formed in one piece with the gas supply pipe. This reduces the number of individual parts to be connected to one another, which correspondingly reduces the manufacturing and storage costs for the gas purging plug.
- the sheet metal cover is plate-shaped and has a depression which, together with the underside of the shaped block, defines a cavity.
- the depression can preferably be produced using a suitable press. This also allows the number of individual parts to be connected to one another to be reduced.
- Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a gas purging plug according to the invention with a molded block made of refractory material, and
- FIG. 2 shows a top view of the gas purging plug according to FIG. 1, the molded block being omitted for the sake of clarity.
- the gas purging plug shown in the drawing consists of a frustoconical, gas-permeable molded block 1.
- the gas purging plug serves to introduce purging gas, such as argon, into a metallurgical vessel (not shown). lend molten metal.
- the gas purging plug is installed in the floor or wall of the metallurgical vessel.
- the frustoconical shaped block 1 is encased in a gas-tight partial cladding, which is welded together from a sheet metal jacket 2 extending around the lateral U-shaped surface of the shaped block 1 and a sheet metal cover 3 covering the outer end face of the shaped block 1. It can be seen that the sheet metal cover 3 is plate-shaped and has a recess 4 which, together with the underside of the shaped block 1, defines a cavity 5.
- a gas supply pipe 6 is arranged on the underside of the metal cover 3 and is welded to the metal cover 3 in the region of a gas inlet opening 1 formed in the metal cover 3. At its end facing away from the sheet metal cover 3, the gas supply pipe 6 is provided with an internal thread 8 for connecting a gas line (not shown). Alternatively or additionally, an external thread can also be formed on the gas supply pipe 6.
- the gas supply pipe 6 has a narrowed cross-section 9, a closure body in the form of a ball 10 being arranged in the axial direction of the gas supply pipe 6 being arranged in the pipe section between the sheet metal cover 3 and the narrowed cross-section 9.
- the narrowed cross section 9 of the gas supply pipe 6 defines a conical valve seat 11 which is formed in one piece with the gas supply pipe 6.
- the ball 10 is loaded according to a check valve by a helical compression spring 12 supported on the sheet metal cover 3 in the direction of the valve seat 11.
- the helical compression spring 12 is dimensioned such that a free annular space 13 is present between the inner wall of the gas supply pipe 6 and the spring 12.
- the gas inlet opening 7 is arranged with respect to the gas supply pipe 6 and the helical compression spring 12 so that it is partially outside the pitch circle of the helical compression spring 12.
- the gas inlet opening 7 consists of three bores 14, 15, 16, the central axes of which are each arranged eccentrically to the central axis of the gas supply pipe 6.
- the central axes of the bores 14, 15, 16 lie on a common circle and are evenly spaced from one another (cf. FIG. 2).
- the gas purging plug is preferably produced in such a way that the frustoconical shaped block 1 is first shrunk into the conical sheet metal jacket 2.
- the plate-shaped sheet metal cover 3 is then welded to the sheet metal jacket 2.
- the gas supply pipe 6 can already be welded to the sheet metal cover 3 with the helical compression spring 12 and the sealing ball 10.
