  • Apparatus to indicate the oxygen content of molten copper using the vibration signal of a graphite rod immersed into the molten metal
    Patent number: 5405121
    Abstract: The purpose of this invention is to present an apparatus consisting of a graphite rod, a vibration signal sensor, a signal processing unit, a data processing unit, and a data display unit to indicate the oxygen content of a copper melt.
