Electric Furnace For Steel Making

View page
US Patent:
6473446, Oct 29, 2002
Filed:
Dec 13, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/737440
Inventors:
Michael J. Stercho - Wexford PA
Assignee:
SMS Demag, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F27D 2300
US Classification:
373 78, 373 72, 373 79
Abstract:
An electric furnace includes a stationary lower shell having a sloping floor extending downwardly to a tap hole to always maintain a sufficient ferrostatic head three times the tap hole for slag free tapping. The configuration of the refractory for containing a heat, is sufficient to maintain a liquid metal heel of at least 70% of the heat before tapping for maintaining flat bath operation during refining a steel melt. An upper furnace shell is supported on the lower furnace shell and a furnace roof is supported by the upper furnace shell. The entire furnace is mounted on a furnace transfer car that is anchored for stationary operation but moved to a furnace exchange position for servicing any of the components making up the furnace. The furnace roof and/or upper furnace shell may be supported at a furnace operate position while the lower furnace shell is transported to the furnace exchange position.

Revamping Of A Basic Oxygen Furnace Installation To Provide An Electric Furnace Facility

View page
US Patent:
6521170, Feb 18, 2003
Filed:
Dec 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/738095
Inventors:
Michael J. Stercho - Wexford PA
Assignee:
SMS Demag Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
C21B 700
US Classification:
266 44, 266142, 266DIG 1
Abstract:
An existing steel making installation having a basic oxygen furnace facility is converted to an electric arc furnace facility for refining steel by modifying the furnace support pedestals to form spaced apart horizontal rail support pads and spaced apart rails are mounted on the pads and a superstructure extending horizontally at one side of the space formally occupied by the basic oxygen furnace. An electric arc furnace is mounted on a furnace transfer car for movement along newly installed horizontal rails between a furnace operating position and a furnace exchange position. The electric furnace having a tapping orifice for discharging treated steel and a slag discharge trough. Ladle transfer cars previously used for handling slag and steel from the basic oxygen furnace are reused for the same purpose during operation of the electric arc furnace. A fume opening in the electric furnace roof is connected by a vertical fume section and an elbow to the existing fume system. Bins used for supplying materials to the basic oxygen furnace are used to supply in some instances different materials to the electric arc furnace.

Method And Apparatus For Deslagging And Tapping An Integrated Electric Steel Making Furnace

View page
US Patent:
6719944, Apr 13, 2004
Filed:
Apr 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/122030
Inventors:
Michael J. Stercho - Wexford PA
Assignee:
SMS Demag, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F27D 300
US Classification:
266 44, 266142, 266DIG 1, 373 79
Abstract:
An electric steel-making furnace has a furnace roof carried by an upper furnace shell on a lower furnace shell to substantially envelop an atmosphere above liquid steel and slag floating thereon in the lower furnace shell. A transfer car supports the lower furnace shell for transport from a furnace-operating site to a remote exchange site for exchanging one or more of the furnace roof, the upper furnace shell and the lower furnace shell. The furnace transfer car has a furnace support platform engaged with the lower furnace shell and supported for tilting of the furnace on the transfer car by actuators at the furnace operating site in a direction to increase the depth of slag at the deslagging passageway for decanting slag floating on liquid steel in the lower furnace shell. Actuators are also provided to tilt the furnace on the transfer car to increase the depth of liquid steel at a tap hole assembly during tapping of a steel heat.

Apparatus To Manipulate Scrap In A Scrap Charger

View page
US Patent:
6801563, Oct 5, 2004
Filed:
Nov 7, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/039672
Inventors:
Michael J. Stercho - Wexford PA
Assignee:
SMS Demag, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F27D 300
US Classification:
373 79, 373 81
Abstract:
A scrap charging apparatus for an electric arc furnace includes a scrap holding bunker having diverging side walls extending between end walls separated by a scrap discharge opening supplying scrap from a fall space in the bunker to a scrap discharge chute. The end wall remote to the scrap discharged opening of the chute slopes at an acute angle to organized scrap entering the discharged opening. A throat opening for scrap passing into the scrap discharge chute is controlled by a pivotal scrap jam relief gate moveable between a scrap metering position, a relief position and a scrap compacting position.

Scrap Charger

View page
US Patent:
6389054, May 14, 2002
Filed:
Dec 18, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/739851
Inventors:
Michael J. Stercho - Wexford PA
Assignee:
SMS Demag Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F27D 300
US Classification:
373 79, 373 81
Abstract:
A scrap charging apparatus for an electric arc furnace uses a skip hoist to supply scrap to a holding bunker having diverging end walls extending between converging side walls. The containment space for the scrap is increased by this wall arrangement and provides an impetus in the bunker for scrap flow to an underlying scrap delivery chute. The scrap delivery chute is formed by an elongated scrap carrying trough having a greater width than the exit width of the scrap holding bunker for delivering scrap to a charging opining for an electric arc furnace A superstructure supporting the scrap holding bunker at an elevated and lateral spaced location from the electric arc furnace. A ram controlled by a drive incrementally advances scrap along the scrap delivery chute for introducing successive preselected volumes of scrap to a charging opining for an electric arc furnace.
