Abstract: A metallurgical vessel for transporting molten metals with a metal jacket with a heat-resistant lining is disclosed. The jacket has two reinforcing rings extending in the peripheral direction and being secured to and integrated in the jacket. The vessel also has two one-part shield segments, each affixed to at least to one of two stiffening rings. The shield segments include arms that extend in both peripheral directions and are provided with a welding edge for welding to the stiffening rings. Two lifting lugs are disposed on the exterior of the vessel on opposing sides thereof and supported by the stiffening rings. A stiffening ring can be implemented as two 120° segments connected at their ends to the two shield segments which each extend over 60° along the periphery.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vessel for metallurgical purposes intended for transporting molten metals. The tank has a metal jacket provided with a heat-proof lining. Two lifting lugs are disposed on the outer side opposite one another, each of which is supported by a lug shield connected to the metal jacket. The lug shield is disposed so as to limit movement in vertical and peripheral direction. Alternatively, the vessel can be made of sections of pipe, with the lug shield connected to a reinforcement ring on the pipe sections. Means are fixed on the metal jacket and/or the reinforcement ring(s) for receiving the own weight of the lug shield and the vessel when the vessel is in a vertical or tilted position.

Abstract: A metallurgic vessel, in particular a ladle for the transport of molten metals, with an upwardly open container which has a bottom receiving a refractory lining and a metal casing and is provided with a carrying framework which consists of carrying claws arranged on the outside of the metal casing and of at least one carrying ring running in the circumferential direction and two vessel carrying lugs which are located opposite one another and are supported on a plate connected to the carrying ring. In this case, the carrying framework has two carrying rings which are at a parallel distance from one another and, together with the plate and the vessel carrying lugs, form an independent unit which is at a distance from the outer surface of the metal casing and is arranged with play between the carrying claws.

Abstract: A supporting roll framework for continuous metal, in particular steel, casting installations, which is divided into straight or curved segments with roll carriers, a plurality of rolls being assembled on one roll carrier. The frame element, as a carrying element, has at least two pipes, which lie parallel to and at a distance from one another, transversely with respect to the running direction of the strand, and between which a web plate is welded in. A holding plate, which is directed toward the strand, is attached to the respectively outer lateral surface of the outer pipes, between which holding plates the carrier which carries the rolls is welded in. The pipes, in the case of internally cooled rolls, function as the cooling medium supply and discharge and, for this purpose, are provided with a connection stub on the outer lateral surface.

Abstract: A vessel for metallurgical purposes, for transporting molten metals, having a metal casing which accommodates a refractory lining, is composed of individual tubular lengths. Two reinforcement rings which run in the circumferential direction and are integrated in the metal casing at an axial distance from one another, and on which two bearing lugs are arranged opposite one another on the outside and are supported by in each case one plate which is connected to the reinforcement rings. If appropriate a lid attachment is fastened to the vessel edge, which lid attachment is frustoconical in cross section. The first reinforcement ring, which lies closer to the base, has an upwardly directed extension, which is designed in the form of a projection, in the area of the plate, which is designed as a shield segment. The, and the second reinforcement ring, which lies further away from the base, has a downwardly directed extension, which is designed in the form of a projection, in the area of the shield segment.

Abstract: A vessel for metallurgical purposes and in particular a vessel for transporting molten metals, having a metal casing formed of individual tubular shells with a heat-resisting lining affixed thereto. Two stiffening rings extend circumferentially around the casing. Two vessel carrying trunnions are arranged opposite one another at the outer side of the metal casing and are supported by a plate connected to each stiffening ring. The stiffening rings are provided as an integrated component part of the metal casing. The middle area of the plate is positioned a distance from the metal casing. Upper and lower rim-line edge areas of the plate are connected, preferably welded, to the stiffening rings located adjacent thereto. The vessel carrying trunnions extend only outwardly from the plate. Depending upon the axial dimensioning of the vessel, more than two stiffening rings may be provided.

Abstract: A device for coupling a coolant duct of a rotating part, especially for a back-up or transport rollers, includes a hollow resilient compensator device fixedly connected to a journal of the rotating part, wherein the journal comprises a bore hole for conducting a coolant and is insertable in a bearing of a stationary part. A second end of the compensator is connected to a first sealing ring. The compensator is enclosed by a receptacle sleeve which includes a second sealing ring that creates a sealin contact with the first sealing ring. The receptacle is connected to the stationary part at an adjustable distance wherein a pretensioning exerted on the compensator by the receptacle sleeve via the first and second sealing rings is adjustable in response to a distance of the receptacle sleeve from the stationary part.
