Publication number: 20240076754Abstract: A molten iron refining method having, an auxiliary material, and an oxidizing gas supplied through a top-blowing lance, to a cold iron source and molten pig iron that are contained/fed in a converter-type vessel, and molten iron is subjected to a refining process. A pre-charged cold iron source is charged into the converter-type vessel at an amount not larger than 0.15 times. A furnace-top-added cold iron source that's part or all of the cold iron source and added from a furnace top is fed during the refining process. A burner at a leading end of the top-blowing lance that spray holes through which a fuel and a combustion-supporting gas are ejected. During the refining process, a powdery auxiliary material processed into powder that's part of the auxiliary material is blown in, to pass through a flame formed by the burner.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2021Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: JFE STEEL CORPORATIONInventors: Futoshi OGASAWARA, Hidemitsu NEGISHI, Kenji NAKASE, Shota AMANO, Yumi MURAKAMI, Rei YOKOMORI, Yudai HATTORI, Ryo KAWABATA, Naoki KIKUCHI

Publication number: 20240068061Abstract: A converter steelmaking method has molten pig iron subjected to dephosphorization process for dephosphorized molten iron, dephosphorized molten iron is subjected to decarburization process for molten steel. For dephosphorization process, a first cold iron source in amount meeting Formula (1) is charged into first converter-type vessel, then undephosphorized molten pig iron is charged and subjected to dephosphorization process. Dephosphorized molten iron is discharged and held in molten metal receiving vessel. After second cold iron source is charged into first converter-type vessel in which dephosphorization process has been performed, the dephosphorized molten iron held in molten metal receiving vessel is charged and subjected to decarburization process. % Ws0?0.1186T?134 (% Ws0?0) . . . (1), where % Ws0: a ratio (%) of first cold iron source to sum of first cold iron source and charge amount of undephosphorized molten pig iron, and T: a temperature (° C.) of undephosphorized molten pig iron.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2021Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: JFE STEEL CORPORATIONInventors: Rei YOKOMORI, Futoshi OGASAWARA, Ryo KAWABATA, Naoki KIKUCHI, Yudai HATTORI

Patent number: 8834217Abstract: A dog clutch mechanism incorporated in an outboard motor includes a sliding clutch dog member splined to a propeller shaft and having recesses on each end face thereof, and a row of gear teeth formed on an end face of each of a pair of driven gears rotatably mounted on the propeller shaft. Each of the recesses has a bottom surface stepped to provide a corner edge at a stepped portion thereof. Each of the gear teeth has a beveled surface formed at a rear edge as viewed from a rotating direction of the driven gear. When the gear teeth are in mesh with the recesses of the clutch dog member, the corner edge of the stepped bottom surface of each recess is in contact with the beveled surface of the mating gear tooth.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2010Date of Patent: September 16, 2014Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hajime Yoshimura, Ryo Ogasawara, Nobuchika Katagiri
