Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for inserting crucibles in melting furnaces, with an armature reaching under the bottom of the crucible and a lifting device running coaxially through the crucible and an opening of the crucible bottom.
  • Such devices are used, for example, in foundries to insert the cup-shaped crucible made of refractory material from above into a melting furnace, for example an induction furnace.
  • an insertion device in which the armature is formed by a metal plate resting on the underside of the crucible bottom and the lifting device has a rod which engages in an opening in the metal plate. After inserting the crucible into the furnace, the rod is released from the opening of the metal plate and the hoist is removed from the crucible while the metal plate remains under the crucible bottom. In this case, in some induction furnaces, the metal plate of the insertion device is exposed to the alternating field of the induction furnace, so that there is an undesirable heating of the metal plate.
  • insertion devices are known; in which the hoist is provided with arms which can be clamped radially against the inner surfaces of the crucible wall, so that the crucible is only held on the hoist in a force-locking manner.
  • the crucible which is made of relatively brittle material, will be damaged or destroyed if the arms are stretched too much against the crucible walls, or that the crucible slips off the hoist if the tension of the arms is too low.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a crucible inserting device which allows simple and secure fastening of the crucible with the aid of an armature which engages positively on the crucible bottom and in which the armature can be completely removed after the crucible has been inserted.
  • This object is achieved in that the armature is expandable in the radial direction.
  • the anchor arranged at the lower end of the lifting device is inserted from above through the opening of the crucible bottom and then spread radially so that it engages positively under the crucible bottom or in a recess formed at the lower end of the opening of the crucible bottom .
  • the armature is preferably formed by a number of support arms which are arranged in a star shape around a tensioning piece which absorbs the tensile force of the lifting device and is movable with respect to the supporting arms and are articulatedly attached to the lifting device with their upper ends.
  • the armature is spread out in that the support arms are pivoted outwards with the aid of the clamping piece.
  • the clamping piece is loosened again so that the armature can be pulled upwards through the opening of the crucible bottom with the support arms hanging freely downwards.
  • the clamping member is axially fixed as with the hoist connected ausae know pyramid or a cone, 'and the support arms are on the attached to a sleeve which is axially movable with respect to the hoist within a limited range.
  • the clamping piece moves upward with respect to the support arms, so that the support arms are automatically spread.
  • the clamping piece is designed as a plate which is rotatable with respect to the support arms and which is provided with radially projecting cams for spreading the support arms.
  • a crucible 10 made of refractory material has a cylindrical wall 12 and a flat bottom 14. In the middle of the bottom 14 there is an opening 16 which is widened to a conical recess 18 on the underside of the bottom.
  • the hoist 20 has a tube 28 provided at the upper end with an eyelet 26 and a tube 30 inserted into the lower end of the tube 28.
  • the lower tube 30 is provided with a number of transverse bores 32 and can be locked at different heights on the tube 28 by means of a bolt 34 running through a transverse bore at the lower end of the tube 28.
  • a rod 36 coaxial to the tubes 28, 30 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the tube 30.
  • the armature 24 comprises a box-shaped, downwardly open sleeve 42 arranged coaxially on the rod 36, on the lower edge of which four flap-shaped support arms 44 are articulated, and a pyramid-shaped clamping piece 46 which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rod 36.
  • the sleeve 42 is provided with a pulling rope 52 guided upwards on the hoist 22 and movable in the vertical direction.
  • the coaxial through the interior of the crucible 10 tube 28 of the hoist 22 is provided with telescopically extendable arms 48 which rest with their free ends on the inner surface of the wall 12 and are locked with the aid of set screws 50, so that the crucible 10 against one Tilting movement is secured in relation to the hoist.
  • the sleeve 42 of the armature 24 is due to the heavy force in a low position in which the support arms 44 are held in the spread position by the clamping piece 46, as shown in Figure 1. If the lifting Stuff 22 is lifted by means of a crane acting on the eyelet 26, the support arms 44 lie flat with their free ends against the conical inner surface of the recess 18.
  • the dimensions of the clamping piece 46 and the sleeve 42 are chosen such that the support arms 44th in the position shown in Figure 1 between the bottom 14 of the crucible and the clamping piece 46, so that the sleeve 42 can not move upwards.
  • the tensile force exerted on the hoist 22 is therefore transmitted to the base 14 of the crucible via the clamping piece 46 and the support arms 44. In this way, the crucible 10 can be safely raised, moved into a position above the melting furnace and lowered into the melting furnace.
  • the set screws 50 are loosened and the telescopic arms 48 are pushed inwards. Then the hoist 22 is lowered further, so that the clamping piece 46 releases the support arms 44. With the aid of the pull rope 52, the sleeve 42 is pulled upwards. As a result, the support arms 44 are pivoted inwards, so that the armature 24 can be pulled upward through the opening 16 of the crucible bottom when the hoist 22 is raised again.
  • the opening 16 of the crucible bottom is clogged with refractory material.
  • Figures 2 and 3 show a modified embodiment of the invention, which differs from the previously described embodiment with regard to the design of the clamping piece.
  • the clamping piece is formed by a plate 54 connected to the rod 36 in a manner fixed against relative rotation, which plate raidal with four jumping cam 56 is provided.
  • the flank 58 leading in the case of a clockwise rotation is chamfered in a ramp-like manner.
  • the beveled flanks 58 merge via rounded corners 60, 62 into the outer edge 64 of the cam or into the steep flank 66 of the adjacent cam.
  • the plate 54 is provided with a central internally threaded bore 68, into which the lower end of the rod 36 is screwed.
  • plate 54 is secured against rotation with respect to rod 36.
  • the sleeve 42 provided with the support arms 44 is rotatable with respect to the rod 36.
  • the plate 54 is held in a position in which the support arms 44 lie in the spaces between the cams 56.
  • the hoist is lowered so far that the lower ends of the support arms 44 are supported on the floor surface on which the crucible 10 is placed.
  • the hoist is then rotated clockwise, so that the support arms 44 slide onto the ramped beveled flanks 58 of the cams 56 and are spread until the support arms 44 rest against the tangentially running outer edges 64 of the cams 56.
  • plate-shaped stops 70 are provided on the steep flanks 66 of the cams 56, which prevent the plate 54 from rotating further.
  • the plate 54 is rotated counterclockwise with the aid of the lifting device. A turning of the sleeve 42 is prevented in that the support arms 44 are supported on the bottom of the melting furnace.
  • the support arms 44 lie back in the intermediate position spaces between the cam 56 so that the anchor can be released from the bottom opening of the crucible.
  • FIG. 4 shows an expandable anchor 72 according to another embodiment of the invention.
  • a horizontal plate 74 is attached, on which a rubber element 76 in the form of a thick-walled annular tube is supported.
  • a plate 78 surrounding the rod 36 lies on the upper edge of the rubber element 76.
  • a sleeve 82, provided with radial arms 80, is pushed onto a section of the rod 36 above the plate 78 and is provided in the upper region with an internal thread, not shown, which engages with an external thread of the rod 36.
  • the sleeve 82 is rotated clockwise with the help of the arms 80 as seen from above.
  • the plate 78 is lowered into the position shown in dashed lines in FIG. 4 with elastic deformation of the rubber element 76.
  • the compression of the rubber element 76 in the axial direction of the armature results in an expansion of the rubber element in the radial direction, so that the rubber element positively engages the conical wall of the recess 18 of the crucible bottom.
