[0002] The continuous casting process is an efficient production process for molten steel forming, which mainly includes a ladle, a shroud, a tundish, an immersion shroud and a supporting cooling system such as a crystallizer. Among them, the shroud and the immersion shroud are used to transfer molten steel between different containers. Compared with the immersion shroud, the sealing effect of the shroud and the prevention of the introduction of secondary inclusions are particularly important.
[0003] Generally, the long nozzle bowl between the ladle and the tundish is in an inverted cone-shaped contact with the ladle outlet, which is used to prevent the secondary oxidation of the molten steel during the transfer between the two ladles and reduce the temperature drop. However, in the actual production process, when workers use a mechanical arm to install the long nozzle, it is easy for the inverted cone tips to collide with each other, thereby damaging the nozzle bowl, introducing new non-metallic impurities into the molten steel, and further causing a poor seal; at the same time, inaccurate positioning of the long nozzle can easily cause the molten steel in the tundish to flow deviatedly, causing local erosion of the lining inside the tundish. Due to the above process problems, it is easy for high-value-added molten steel to introduce non-metallic inclusions and secondary oxidation, which seriously affects the quality of the ingot and the smooth production. Utility Model Content

The ladle water inlet 1 is sleeved with the long water outlet 2 and positioned by a stop mechanism to ensure that the ladle water inlet 1 and the long water outlet 2 are coaxially arranged. Since the flow channel diameter of the long water outlet 2 is larger than the flow channel diameter of the ladle water inlet 1, the molten steel will not have a deviation phenomenon during the flow process. In addition, there is a sealing unit between the ladle water inlet 1 and the long water outlet 2, and argon gas is continuously introduced into the sealing unit through the argon pipe 7 to form an airtight seal at the connection between the ladle water inlet 1 and the long water outlet 2 to ensure the purity of the molten steel in the flow channel. The ladle water inlet 1 is sleeved in the top of the long water outlet 2, and the two are in surface contact. Compared with the inverted cone-shaped contact between the conventional long water outlet bowl and the ladle water inlet 1, it prevents the water outlet bowl from being damaged due to collision with the tip.

The sealing unit seals on both sides of the stop boss 5 and the stop slot.
[0027] Example 3
