ELECTRICALLY OPERATED DEVICE FOR THE HEATING OF METALS AND/OR SALTS IN THE MOLTEN STATE, AND OF SOLUTIONS

摘要

1. An electrical device for the direct heating of metals and/or salts in the molten state and solutions having at least one resistence heating member (7) in the form of a vessel partially immersed in the bath (5) to be heated and in which a contact material (8, 9) is disposed, in which material there is inserted an electrode (10) by means of which a voltage potential between the contact material, the heating member and the bath is produced in cooperation with at least one counter-electrode (13) acting on the bath (5), characterised in that the heating member (7) comprises at least two permanently connected moulded components, these components consisting of different materials with different physical and/or chemical properties.
