摘要:
A melt-holding vessel includes a melt-holding chamber defined by a bottom wall and upstanding side wall of refractory material. The side wall includes one or more insulating air pockets located in such a manner relative to the chamber as to substantially reduce heat loss from the melt in the chamber by conduction through the side wall.

A system for simultaneously melting metal and holding molten metal for casting operations and the like comprises a plurality of coreless induction furnaces. Each furance has an induction coil having a plurality of coil turns. The induction coils of the furances are arranged to inductively heat metal in the furnaces and are connected in electrical series. A single power supply furnishes AC power to the series-connected induction coils. Electrical taps are located on each induction coil at spaced intervals along the coil for enabling electrical connections to be made to the induction coils at said intervals. Each interval comprises a preselected number of coil turns. Switch means are associated with each induction coil and connected to selected ones of the electrical taps for selectably switching a preselected number of coil turns into and out of circuit with the power supply for selectively melting or holding molten metal in the induction furnace associated with a selected coil.

A metallurgical container for the inductive treatment of metals comprises an inner lining of refractory material and a generally tubular enclosure comprising an upper annular casing surrounding the upper open end of the inner lining, a lower annular casing surrounding the bottom of said container, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced metallic tie rods extend parallel to each other through a median heating zone of the container. A plurality of connecting elements respectively extending through openings in the bottom wall of the upper casing and the top wall of the lower casing, electrically insulated from those walls, tightly connect opposite ends of the tie rods to each wall. The tie rods and the connecting elements are formed with coaxial channels for the passage of cooling fluid therethrough which is fed into one of the casings and discharged from the other.The container according to the present invention permits powerful inductive treatment of metal and metal alloys, especially steel.
摘要:
Apparatus and process for heating metal in an inducation furnace, wherein an inductor is supported above the melting charge and an alternating current is applied thereto, the inductor being supported relative to the surface of the melting charge such that the repelling effect of the electromagnetic field of the inductor holds the melting charge away from the inductor.
摘要:
Apparatus for melting, holding and tapping metals or metal alloys, in which solid material is melted down in a channel-type induction furnace, the melt then being transferred to a second channel-type induction furnace to be kept hot, possibly overheated and stored, characterized in that the melting furnace is connected to the second furnace by way of a feeding channel and is located at a higher level than the second furnace and that the second furnace is in the form of a presssure furnace for pressure tapping through a spout.
