HOT TOP CORNER WEDGE

摘要

The tapered corner wedge made of a sheet metal material is utilized to press refractory panels into tight abutting engagement with the walls of an ingot mold or the like. The corner wedge cooperates with the refractory panels and provides a spring action which urges the panels against the walls of the ingot mold. The corner wedge is made of two pieces of sheet metal which are welded together. Each of the pieces has a tapered configuration and when welded together, provides a generally X-shaped cross section. The legs of the X-shaped configuration form flanges which engage corner portions of adjacent refractory panels.
