  • Apparatus for the conveying and exchanging of a pouring tube
    Patent number: 5351865
    Abstract: A device (1) for inserting and replacing an insertable pouring tube (2) having a movable plate (3) and sliding on guide rails (9), which transmit thrust upwards, comprises a tilting member (20) which engages a lever (26) to impart a tilting motion to the movable plate (3) about a horizontal front edge thereof which engages a sealing area surrounding the pouring opening of a reference plate. This tilting motion makes the movable plate (3) completely parallel with the underside of the upper reference plate (6), improves the sealing contact between the two plates and prevents any infiltration of metal therebetween.
