Definitions

  • the seal can easily be broken at the end of casting one ladle and can be readily re-made on a second ladle to the existing shroud when sequencing casts, that is, discharging in sequence the contents of successive ladles moved into position over the tundish.
  • the seal maintains its integrity during the movement of the nozzle as the slide gate valve is opened and throttled etc during teeming, ie it adjusts to the positions and attitudes adopted during the stream flow control.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown only one relevent component of the sliding gate valve, namely the collector 1 having a tapered end 2 on its dependent nozzle.
  • a flared tubular refractory shroud 3 Mounted beneath the collector nozzle is a flared tubular refractory shroud 3 and this is mounted and supported on a separate platform (not shown).
  • the lower end of the shroud is immersed below the level of the molten steel 4 in the tundish 5, the surface of the steel being covered with a layer of insulating powder 6.
  • the junction between the upper flared end of the shroud 3 and the collector 2 is sealed by an 0-ring 7 which is sandwiched in place as the nozzle and shroud mate together. More particularly, this ring comprises a tubular casing of flame retardant or flame resistant material enclosing within it a powdery composition of eg boric oxide and calcium/alumino silicate.
  • steel is teemed through the nozzle as it is moved into alignment with the ladle pour opening (not shown) and as the temperature of the junction rises consequent upon this the composition within the tubular casing of the o-ring softens and the whole assumes a shape and attitude to seal the junction and fill any voids.
  • the tubular casing should simply be strong enough to withstand minor abrasion so as to retain the composition within it before volatilisation and may be formed from a plastics material e.g polyvinylchloride in the manner of a sausage skin or a plastics hose or even tough paper; each may be treated with sodium silicate for flame resistance.
  • a plastics material e.g polyvinylchloride in the manner of a sausage skin or a plastics hose or even tough paper; each may be treated with sodium silicate for flame resistance.
  • Figure 2 shows an alternative form of seal in which a tapered ring gasket 8 of conventional design has a cementitious softenable composition 9, as above, layered on to its surface so that when compressed into position this surface layer completes a gas-impervious seal over the normally pervious gasket.
  • the precise positioning of the seal is not critical so long as the junction is effectively closed and it is not essential for the collector and the shroud to have mating tapers. Positioning of the seal may be facilitated by incorporating a protruding handle by which it can be manipulated from a distance.
  • the dependent nozzle may not necessarily be a component of a slide gate valve.
