AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a composite SN plate used in a SN device. The composite SN plate satisfies conditional formulas (1) and (2) to prevent displacement of the tubular member and molten metal penetration into the joint between the tubular member and the SN plate body. The invention also improves recyclability rate of used SN plates by configuring the composite SN plate to further satisfy conditional formula (3). The invention uses a mortar containing metal aluminum and carbon as the bonding material to prevent abnormal wear of the joint and displacement of the tubular member.

Problems solved by technology

Such a SN plate used in the SN device is damaged due to molten metal during use.
In particular, a surface of the SN plate defining the through-hole for allowing molten metal to pass therethrough will be severely damaged.
However, when the recycled lower plate 2 having the tubular member 3 attached thereto as illustrated in FIG. 2 was used in an actual casting operation, a problem of displacement of the tubular member 3 used for recycling, and a problem of molten metal penetration into a joint 4 between the tubular member 3 and a SN plate body (i.e., a plate body of the recycled lower plate 2), occurred.

example a

[0043]In Example A, an influence of each dimension of a composite SN plate on displacement of a tubular member used therein, and molten metal penetration into a joint between the tubular member and a SN plate body, was analyzed. A result of the analysis is illustrated in Table 1. A composite SN plate in Example A was used as a lower plate of a SN device for a ladle. The composite SN plate was made of a conventional alumina-carbon based material.

example b

[0045]In Example B, in a SN plate where a recycled SN plate obtained by recycling a used SN plate is used as a SN plate body, an influence of a boring width of a through-hole (nozzle hole) of the used SN plate on a recyclability rate of used SN plates was analyzed.

[0046]The recyclability rate was evaluated in the following manner. A through-hole (nozzle hole) of a used SN plate was diametrally enlarged by means of boring. In a bore surface of the diametrally-enlarged through-hole, a region in an angular range of 90 degree on a leading side of a sliding movement in an opening stroke direction (range indicated by A in FIG. 4) was observed. Then, a sample having no open crack was evaluated as “recyclable”. Specifically, a crack having a gap of 0.5 mm or more was determined to be an open crack. This is because, as long as a crack has a gap of less than about 0.5 mm, the molten metal penetration will never occur, even if molten steel contacts the crack. The above operation was performed ...

example c

[0048]In Example C, a plurality of types of recycled lower plates were prepared by changing a type of mortar (bonding material) to be formed as the joint 4 between the tubular member 3 and the SN plate body in the recycled lower plate 2 illustrated in FIG. 1(b). Then, each of the plurality of types of recycled lower plates was used as a lower plate of a SN device as illustrated in FIG. 2, and compared to an unused lower plate, in terms of usable life. In all of the samples, a width of the joint was set to 2 mm.

[0049]A result of the comparison is illustrated in Table 2. In Table 2, the usable life non-attainment rate represents a rate of samples failing to attain the same usable life as that in an unused lower plate. In each of the samples, the number of tests to be assigned to the denominator was 100.

Abstract

Disclosed is a sliding nozzle plate (composite sliding nozzle plate) (2) for use in a sliding nozzle device for adjusting an outflow amount of molten metal from a molten metal vessel. The sliding nozzle plate (2) comprises a sliding nozzle plate body and a tubular member (3) formed with a flange (3a) and attached to a bore (through-hole (1c′)) of the sliding nozzle plate body, and satisfies the following conditional formulas (1) and (2):φB≦φI−5  (1);andφB−φR≦4  (2),where: φB is a diameter (mm) of the bore of the sliding nozzle plate body; φI is an outer diameter (mm) of the flange of the tubular member; and φR is an outer diameter (mm) of the non-flange portion of the tubular member. The composite sliding nozzle plate is capable of preventing displacement of the tubular member and molten metal penetration into a joint between the tubular member and the sliding nozzle plate body.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a sliding nozzle plate (hereinafter referred to as “SN plate”) for use in a sliding nozzle device (hereinafter referred to as “SN device”) for adjusting an outflow amount of molten metal from a molten metal vessel, particularly, a SN plate comprising: a member defining a partial region surrounding a through-hole serving as a flow passage for molten metal; and a SN plate body defining a remaining region, wherein the member is formed separately from the SN plate body, and fitted into and integrated with the SN plate body (this type of SN plate will hereinafter be referred to as “composite SN plate”), and a SN device using the SN plate.[0002]As used in this specification, the term “composite SN plate” encompasses not only a type in which the SN plate body is a recycled SN plate obtained by recycling a used SN plate, but also a type in which the SN plate body is an unused SN plate.BACKGROUND ART[0003]A SN device is widely used, for e...
