METALLURGICAL VESSEL WITH FIXING SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a metallurgical vessel (1), particularly a converter (2), with support consoles (10) arranged on the wall (3) of the vessel. Said consoles are fixed to a support body (4) that does not fully surround the periphery of the vessel by means of a fixing system (9) which comprises clamping means (12) that engage with the support consoles (10) and can be pivoted into and out of a position of engagement. The vessel (1) can be removed from the support body (4) and can be reconnected therewith when the clamping means (12) are not in a position of engagement. According to the invention, the clamping means (12) comprise a clamping lever (13) which is engaged on one side and which describes a pivoting movement by means of a hydraulic pressure unit (17). According to the invention, the support consoles (10) and a receiving area (11) of the support body (4), which receives the respective support console, are configured in such a manner that they correspond to one another such that the respective support console (10) is guided and fixed in a secure manner even when mechanical and/or thermal movements occur.
