Definitions
- the invention relates to a slide closure for a metallurgical container, in particular a casting ladle, and to a method for assembling a slide closure for a metallurgical container.
- Slide valves for metallurgical containers are known per se. Such slide valves are typically attached to a metallurgical container, e.g. below a pouring ladle, and are used for the controlled pouring of liquid metals from a pouring outlet, whereby a pouring channel can be opened or closed by refractory plates that can be moved relative to one another. Such slide valves are also referred to as pouring ladle slide valves.
- a slide plate is arranged within a slide frame that can be moved in translation relative to the housing (closure housing) of the slide valve by means of a hydraulic cylinder.
- Slide valves can be designed as two-plate slide valves with a slide plate that can be moved relative to a stationary head plate, or as three-plate slide valves with a slide plate that can be moved relative to a stationary upper head plate and a stationary lower pouring plate.
- a protective gas atmosphere is often created in slide valves to prevent the melt discharged from the metallurgical vessel from Metal or a metal alloy reacts with the oxygen in the environment.
- the protective gas or inert gas atmosphere can in particular prevent ambient air from entering or being sucked into the pouring channel during pouring via the slide valve closure, e.g. between the head and slide plate.
- the addition of oxygen to the molten metal can lead to uncontrolled metallurgical reactions and impair the quality of the end product, which is in particular a steel product.
- the closure housing must be sealed from the environment.
- a slide valve with a protective gas or inert gas atmosphere is made, for example, of EN 40 07 993 A1 known.
- a gas-tight box is built around the slide frame and is closed by a cover plate.
- An inert gas line leads into the box to create an inert gas environment inside the box.
- a circumferential seal is provided in the edge of the box side walls.
- JP-S61-3653-A shows a slide closure in which a bellows is used to seal the central opening of a cover body of the closure housing on the pouring side.
- EN 20 2011 111055 U1 shows a valve housing with a box-like frame with a bottom wall, on the outside of which a seal is provided around the spout.
- connecting the shadow tube to the pouring sleeve can be problematic due to a sealing plate that has sunk below the closure housing.
- uncontrolled gas escape can lead to a deterioration in the shielding by protective gas inside the closure housing, increased reoxidation and thus to a deterioration in the quality of the steel.
- the slide valves with protective gas atmosphere known from the state of the art are susceptible to leaks and operational malfunctions due to material failure of the springs.
- the known arrangements for gas sealing i.e. sealing against (unwanted) gas leakage, increase the design effort and the construction volume of the slide valve.
- the present invention therefore has the object of providing a slide closure which has increased operational reliability, in particular with regard to possible escape of protective gas.
- the slide closure should also be as simple as possible in design and have as small a construction volume as possible.
- the invention is based on the idea that springs for applying a contact pressure of the sealing body are not absolutely necessary for an effective gas seal if the sealing body is arranged on an inner side of the closure housing. As a result, the risk of leakage due to material failure of the springs is also eliminated.
- a sealing body arranged on the inner side of the closure housing which could also be referred to as an internal sealing body, is pressed against the inner side of the closure housing due to gravity or the weight of the sealing body in a typical arrangement of the slide closure. Adequate gas sealing can be achieved simply due to the resulting contact pressure from an internal sealing body.
- the (additional) use of at least one compression spring, in particular to increase the sealing effect, is provided.
- An additional sealing body on an outer side of the closure housing is preferably not provided, but is not excluded by the invention.
- the sealing body is arranged on an inner side of the closure housing, which is opposite the metallurgical container.
- the closure housing can comprise a (box-shaped) slide housing and a housing cover (mounting plate or cover plate), whereby the housing cover or the slide housing can be fastened to the metallurgical container.
- the sealing body for gas sealing of the outlet opening can be arranged on an inner side of the slide housing or on an inner side of the Housing cover.
- the sealing body is arranged on an inner side of the closure housing between the slide frame and the inner side of the closure housing.
- gas seal does not mean a hermetic sealing of the entire closure housing against gas leakage at any point. Rather, a gas seal of the outlet opening is intended to prevent uncontrolled gas leakage from the outlet opening.
- the area of the passage opening of the sealing body can define or limit an area (partial area) of the outlet opening through which a (controlled or desired) gas leakage is possible, in particular a guided protective gas flow through a gap (circumferential gas guide gap) between the sealing body or the passage opening of the sealing body and an outside of the pouring sleeve.
- gas seal refers in particular to a seal against gas leakage between the inside of the closure housing and a side of the sealing body facing this inside (underside).
- the pouring sleeve is accommodated in particular in the slide frame, whereby the pouring sleeve is movable relative to the closure housing.
- the slide closure is preferably designed as a two-plate slide.
- the pouring sleeve can also be provided in a stationary manner (relative to the closure housing), whereby the slide closure could preferably be designed as a three-plate slide.
- the closure housing has in particular at least one gas supply for a protective gas (inert gas).
- the gas supply can be provided on the mounting plate and/or on the slide housing.
- the sealing body is in particular made of metal, preferably steel. The sealing body can be constructed in one or more parts.
- a slide closure according to the invention has the advantage that the springs required in the prior art to create the sealing effect can be omitted. This increases operational reliability, in particular against uncontrolled gas leakage due to spring failure and a resulting displacement of the sealing body.
- the structural design of the slide closure for gas sealing can be simplified. The construction volume of the slide valve can be reduced by an internal sealing body.
- the sealing body in particular an edge region of the sealing body, is supported against an inner surface of the closure housing.
- the sealing body is supported at least partially in an edge region of the outlet opening.
- An edge region of the outlet opening can be understood as an inner region of the closure housing that surrounds the outlet opening (at least partially).
- the sealing body does not have to lie directly, in particular not flatly, on the inside of the closure housing.
- a seal that is in direct contact with the inside of the closure housing can be arranged between the sealing body and the inside.
- the sealing body is arranged displaceably relative to the outlet opening, wherein the sealing body preferably comprises a sealing plate.
- the outlet opening is preferably designed as a recess in the closure housing, in particular a (lower) wall of the closure housing.
- the outlet opening can be formed in a wall of the closure housing opposite the metallurgical container, in particular in the bottom of a box-shaped closure housing.
- the outlet opening preferably extends in the direction of displacement of the slide frame in order to enable a longitudinal displacement of the pouring sleeve extending into or through the outlet opening when the slide frame moves.
- a longitudinal dimension of the sealing body (the sealing plate) is at least as large as a longitudinal dimension of the outlet opening in the direction of displacement plus the maximum displacement path of the slide frame.
- an inner surface of the closure housing forms a sliding surface for the sealing body, wherein areas of the sliding surface in particular have a lower surface roughness than areas outside the Sliding surface.
- the inner surface can be machined in some areas, in particular by machining, for example ground.
- the inner surface of the closure housing is (in the area of the sliding surface) particularly flat and allows a relative displacement of the sealing body to the inner surface. The sealing effect can be improved by a smooth sliding surface.
- the sealing body has a seal, preferably a flat seal, running around the passage opening on a sealing surface that faces an inner surface of the closure housing.
- a groove is preferably formed in the sealing surface of the sealing body, which runs around the passage opening and into which a seal, preferably a flat seal, is inserted.
- the seal preferably has an (approximately) rectangular cross-section.
- the sealing body has a seal, preferably a flat seal, which comprises a graphite mesh, which is preferably reinforced with steel mesh.
- a seal preferably a flat seal, which comprises a graphite mesh, which is preferably reinforced with steel mesh.
- Such a sealing material is stable even at high temperatures and is hard-wearing and abrasion-resistant.
- the sealing body is connected to the slide frame so that it can move in a pouring direction perpendicular to the displacement direction.
- the pouring direction runs in particular in the direction of gravity.
- a movement of the slide frame can be coupled to the sealing body, in particular transmitted to the sealing body, while a (small) relative displacement of the sealing body to the slide frame is possible.
- the sealing body (or a seal accommodated in the sealing body) can rest against the inside of the closure housing regardless of the position of the slide frame in the pouring direction, in particular in any position of the slide frame in the displacement direction. The sealing effect is thereby improved.
- an interchangeable ring accommodated in the slide frame for holding the pouring sleeve extends through the passage opening of the sealing body, wherein preferably an inner circumferential surface of the passage opening of the sealing body rests against an outer circumferential surface of the interchangeable ring.
- the pouring sleeve can be inserted into the interchangeable ring.
- the interchangeable ring is not firmly connected to the sealing body in the axial direction (longitudinal axis of the interchangeable ring or the pouring sleeve).
- the sealing body can preferably slide in relation to the interchangeable ring in the pouring direction.
- the sealing body is preferably positively coupled or connected to the interchangeable ring. This allows a sliding movement of the slide frame to be transferred to the sealing body, while the movement of the sealing body in the pouring direction is decoupled from it.
- a protective plate is attached to the sealing body, which extends along an outer side of the closure housing.
- the protective plate preferably extends (essentially) parallel to the outer surface (underside) of the closure housing.
- the (outer) protective plate is preferably connected to the (inner) sealing body via a protective plate connecting piece extending through the outlet opening of the closure housing.
- the protective plate is preferably screwed (directly) to the sealing body, with the protective plate connecting piece arranged in between.
- the protective plate could also be attached (directly), in particular screwed, to the protective plate connecting piece.
- the protective plate connecting piece extends in particular from an inner side of the closure housing to an outer side of the closure housing.
- the protective plate connecting piece can be designed as a (cylindrical or hollow cylindrical) sleeve (spacer sleeve), which is preferably connected, preferably welded, to the sealing body, in particular to an inner circumferential surface of the passage opening of the sealing body.
- a circumferential (annular) flat seal is preferably provided between the protective plate connecting piece and the protective plate.
- an interchangeable ring accommodated in the slide frame for holding the pouring sleeve has at least one radial gas feed-through channel, which preferably opens into a gas guide gap formed between the sealing body and the slide frame.
- the gas guide gap can be formed by a gap between the sealing body and the slide frame, in particular between an upper side of the sealing body and an underside of the slide frame.
- several gas discharge channels are provided (evenly) distributed over the circumference of the interchangeable ring, for example two, three, four, six, eight or more Gas discharge channels.
- the gas discharge channels are preferably designed as radial through holes in the interchangeable ring.
- a gas discharge channel connects the gas guide gap between the sealing body and the slide frame with a circumferential gas guide gap on the outside of the pouring sleeve.
- a circumferential gas guide gap serves to guide a gas flow (protective gas flow) out of the closure housing.
- Radial gas feed-through channels can ensure a more uniform flow on the pouring sleeve.
- the displacement of the slide frame can lead to (minor) changes in the position of the slide plate, the interchangeable ring and the pouring sleeve relative to one another (in the direction of displacement).
- the flow paths for the protective gas, in particular the (intended) outlet gap for the protective gas along an outer circumference of the pouring sleeve can thus become uneven.
- Gas feedthrough channels enable a more even distribution or flow of the protective gas over the circumference of the pouring sleeve and thus a reduced risk of ambient air penetrating the outflowing metallic melt.
- the sealing body is supported on the slide frame by at least one compression spring, preferably a helical compression spring.
- Compression springs can be arranged between the sealing body and the slide frame, in particular between an upper side of the sealing body and an underside of the slide frame.
- Several springs, preferably three, four, six or eight springs, can be arranged (evenly) distributed around the pouring sleeve.
- Compression springs can be used to achieve a resilient support of the sealing body against the slide frame. This can increase the pressure on the inside of the closure housing that is already generated by the weight of the sealing body.
- a uniform contact of the sealing body on the inside (inner surface or sliding surface) of the closure housing is promoted, in particular regardless of the position of the slide frame in the direction of displacement. The sealing effect is thereby further improved. Even in the event of material failure of the compression springs, the sealing effect is maintained (at least partially) by the internal sealing body. The operational safety and reliability of the slide closure is thereby increased.
- the sealing body has a receiving opening for a compression spring on a side facing the slide frame and/or the slide frame has a receiving opening for a compression spring on a side facing the sealing body.
- the receiving openings for the springs are provided in particular on an upper side of the sealing body or an underside of the slide frame.
- the receiving openings are preferably designed as bores into which the compression springs (compression coil springs) are or will be inserted. In the installed state (operating state), the compression springs are compressed. So that they exert a contact force of the sealing body on the inside (inner surface or sliding surface) of the closure housing.
- the sealing body is supported on the slide frame via a pressure spring arrangement, which can be pre-assembled in particular.
- the pressure spring arrangement which can be pre-assembled in particular, preferably comprises a spring holder for the captive holding of at least one compression spring.
- the pressure spring arrangement can be attached to the slide frame or to the sealing body.
- the compression spring is captive connected to the slide frame or the sealing body via a spring holder.
- the compression spring can be held loosely by the spring holder or can be braced against the slide frame or the sealing body.
- pre-assembled refers in particular to a point in time before the slide frame is assembled with the sealing body in the closure housing.
- a pre-assembled or pre-assemblable pressure spring arrangement facilitates the assembly of a spring (pressure springs) to support the sealing body on the slide frame.
- the pressure spring arrangement in particular exerts an additional pressure force on the sealing body to improve the seal.
- the pressure spring arrangement which can in particular be pre-assembled, has a pressure tappet which is attached to the slide frame or the sealing body in a spring-like manner, preferably via a compression spring.
- the compression spring is preferably supported with one spring end against the slide frame or the sealing body and with another spring end against a spring contact surface of the pressure tappet.
- the spring holder holds the pressure tappet in the unassembled state of the sealing body.
- the pressure tappet can be clamped to the slide frame or to the sealing body via the compression spring, whereby the compression spring can be pre-tensioned in the pre-assembled state of the pressure spring arrangement.
- the contact pressure on the sealing body can be set or readjusted by the length of the compression spring or its pre-tension in the contact spring arrangement.
- the contact pressure tappet can be accommodated (when assembled) in a tappet recess in the slide frame or the sealing body.
- the slide frame and the sealing body are positively connected to one another via at least one connecting element, preferably via at least one driving pin, in particular in the direction of displacement and/or in a direction of rotation about the pouring direction.
- a rotation of the sealing body relative to the pouring sleeve or the interchangeable ring can be prevented via such a connecting element, which is arranged in particular eccentrically to the pouring sleeve or the interchangeable ring.
- lateral longitudinal guides (in the direction of displacement V) of the compressor body in the closure housing can be dispensed with or they can be designed with more play.
- the (internal) sealing body preferably the (internal) sealing plate, can be made narrower.
- a positive coupling or connection of the sealing body with the interchangeable ring or the pouring sleeve in the radial direction can be omitted or designed with a larger play.
- the displacement movement can be transferred (fully or partially) to the sealing body via the connecting elements (driving pins).
- the connecting elements can be arranged distributed around the interchangeable ring. For a complete transfer of the displacement force of the slide frame to the sealing body, several connecting elements are preferably provided.
- a single connecting element can be sufficient to prevent rotation.
- the displacement force (depending on the existing play between the components of the slide closure) can still be transferred via the interchangeable ring or (fully or partially) via the at least one connecting element.
- a single connecting element is preferably provided, while with larger embodiments several connecting elements are provided.
- the sealing body has a recess on a side facing the slide frame for a (positive) engagement with a connecting element (driving pin), which is preferably attached to the slide frame.
- the slide frame can also have a recess on a side facing the sealing body for a (positive) engagement with a connecting element (driving pin), which is attached to the sealing body.
- an internal sealing body is created, which is arranged on an inner side of the closure housing.
- the insertion of a sealing body and the insertion of the slidably mounted slide frame can be carried out together, ie in a single step, in particular as a pre-assembled assembly that includes the sealing body and the slide frame.
- the method has similar Advantages such as those already described in connection with the slide closure according to the invention. If the described assembly method were to completely or partially dispense with springs, which are required in the prior art to create the sealing effect, the gas seal would then be ensured (at least partially) by the weight of the sealing body (and the protective plate).
- the operational reliability can be increased by a slide closure assembled according to the method, in particular against uncontrolled gas leakage due to spring failure and a resulting displacement or misalignment of the sealing body.
- the assembly method can reduce the construction volume of the slide closure.
- the assembly method or parts of the assembly method can be carried out in a vertical or horizontal position of the closure housing, in particular in a position of the closure housing hanging on a mounting stand.
- the assembly method can comprise further steps, such as inserting a pouring sleeve and/or a slide plate into the slide frame and/or fastening a head plate to a mounting plate of the closure housing.
