A metallurgical furnace provided with a refractory lining and an outer furnace steel jacket, having copper cooling plates, wherein a flow of cooling medium flows through the cooling plates arranged between the furnace steel jacket and the refractory lining. Cooling medium pipes of the copper cooling plate provided for supplying and removing the cooling medium are guided through the furnace steel jacket to the exterior and are gas-tightly welded to the furnace steel jacket. The copper cooling plate is connected free of play in all spatial directions to the furnace steel jacket, in addition to attachment by way of the cooling medium pipes welded to the furnace steel jacket, by at least one fixed-point fastening element that is welded to the furnace steel jacket. The at least one fixed-point fastening element is arranged within at least one of the upper part and the lower part of the copper cooling plate in immediate proximity of the cooling medium pipes.

Copper cooling plate for metallurgical furnaces

The present invention concerns a plate (1) for cooling a blast furnace and forged or rolled out of a blank of copper or mainly-copper alloy. Vertical bores (3) extend into the plate. A detachable furnace-cooling component (4) with vertical bores (5) and horizontal bores (6) extending into it is attached to the top or bottom of the plate. Coolant is pumped into and out of the bores in the furnace-cooling component through sections (2) of pipe and into and out of the bores in the plate through other sections (2) of pipe. Both cooling systems communicate with the furnace's cooling system by way of the pipe sections (2), which extend through the furnace plating (10).

Plate for cooling shaft furnaces

A cooling device for use with a refractory lining in a smelting plant, such as a blast furnace and particularly a shaft furnace, includes an inner refractory lining, an outer steel jacket, and a plate member located between them. Preferably, the plate member is cast and anchoring members are cast into each plate member and extend only from the plate member surface facing toward the steel jacket. The anchoring member secures the steel jacket and plate members together and also holds them in spaced relation. Various embodiments of anchoring members can be used. In one embodiment a blind bore is provided within the anchoring member and a thermocouple extends into the blind bore from the steel jacket for measuring the operating temperature of the plate member.
