METHOD FOR SEALING OF GAPS IN A CONTACT SHOE RING AND SEALING ARRANGEMENT

摘要

A method and sealing arrangement (22) for sealing of gaps (1) in a contact shoe ring (2). The sealing arrangement (22) comprises a refractory fabric (12) which is folded to a substantially U-form shape having a first branch portion (13) attached with refractory glue to the first side edge (7) of the first contact shoe element (10) and a second branch portion (14) attached with refractory glue to the second side edge (8) of the second contact shoe element (11). At least one refractory felt strip (15) is arranged between the first and second branch portions (13, 14) to fill the space therebetween. A cover strip (16) made of refractory fabric is attached with refractory glue to the side faces (9) of the first and second contact shoe element (10, 11).
