Abstract: An installation is provided for supplying materials into a metallurgical unit by the alloying steel for synchronizing the process of melting the supplied materials and reducing the alloying elements. The installation includes a distributor gear made as a funnel and a swivel launder with a drive, and intermediate hoppers interconnected with a pipe-chute. The installation is provided with a housing having a lid and means for fastening to structures of a plant. The funnel is mounted in the lid, the swivel launder is mounted under the lid and the intermediate hoppers are positioned radially in the housing to form a cavity by hopper surfaces facing a longitudinal axis of the installation, said cavity being separated from the interior of the hoppers, which are coupled to the pipe chute by discharge openings formed therein and shutters mounted to move relative to a longitudinal axis of a hopper.

Abstract: The invention relates to ferrous metallurgy and can be used in the processes of direct alloying of steel in steel-teeming ladles or installations for the out-of-furnace treatment. An installation for supplying materials into a metallurgical unit comprises a distributing device made as a funnel and a swivel launder with a drive, and intermediate hoppers interconnected with a pipe-chute, wherein the installation is provided with a housing having a lid and means for fastening to structures of a plant, wherein the funnel is mounted in the lid, the swivel launder is mounted under the lid, and the intermediate hoppers are positioned radially in the housing to form a cavity by hopper surfaces facing a longitudinal axis of the installation, said cavity being separated from the interior of the hoppers, wherein the hoppers are coupled to the pipe-chute by means of discharge openings formed therein and shutters mounted to move relative to a longitudinal axis of a hopper.
