Embodiment Construction

[0038] exist figure 1 In , 1 represents a part of the molten metal pool, such as the molten aluminum alloy pool. The immersion pipe system shown in this example with a jacket 3 extends into the bath. The air supply pipe 4 is concentric with the casing inside the casing. The bushing 3 and the gas supply pipe 4 are connected to each other by an O-ring 5 which also provides a seal against gas leakage.

[0039] As a result of the submersion of a part of the casing 3 into the molten pool 1, a convex meniscus is formed inside the casing. Preferably at least a portion of the inner wall of the sleeve is made of a non-wetting material. A laser beam 15 generated by a laser source (not shown) meets the meniscus at the location of the meeting surface 7 above the focal point of the laser beam to prevent positioning problems and to prevent the gas above the meniscus from forming a plasma.

[0040] The channel 8 of the air supply pipe 4 has a central narrowing 9 .

[0041] The direction...

Abstract

Method for analyzing the composition of a bath comprising liquid metal, in which a laser beam is directed onto a surface of the bath and in which at least part of the metal forms a sample which is analyzed, wherein, at least at the location where the laser beam meets the bath, impurities at the surface of the bath are removed by purging with a stream of a purge gas.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of analyzing the composition of a liquid metal bath and an apparatus for use in the method. Background technique [0002] A method and apparatus of this type is known from British patent application GB2154315A. The published application describes a method and apparatus for analyzing the composition of molten steel. [0003] According to the method described, a probe provided with means for delivering a laser beam is positioned above a molten steel bath. The part of the steel that the laser strikes emits radiation of a specific element. The emitted radiation is transmitted via an optical system (which is also housed in the probe) to a spectrometer for analysis. The composition of the steel can be obtained from the analysis results. This method is also known as LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy). [0004] On the side facing the molten pool, the probe is provided with a ceramic tube which protects th...
