Receiving device for use as loading device for loading arc furnace with sponge iron, has actuator actuating aperture mechanism to open and close material basket that is arranged at fixed position on device by engagement of mechanism

摘要

The device (100) has a feeding aperture (130) for feeding a material. An actuator (200) i.e. hydraulic cylinder, actuates an aperture mechanism (310) to open and close a material basket (300). The material basket is arranged at a fixed position on the device by an engagement of the aperture mechanism. The actuator is arranged adjacent to the feeding aperture. A positioning device positions the aperture mechanism relative to the actuator, where the positioning device comprises a guide metal sheet that is arranged in a right angle to another guide metal sheet (401). The positioning device is designed as a swingable guiding frame. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a material basket (2) a system for operating a receiving device.
