A slit nozzle having a double-tube structure and a method for manufacturing a high-silicon steel strip having a small variation in Si concentration depending on the position in the width direction of the steel strip. The slit nozzle has a double-tube structure, in which a flow-control plate which closes a gap between an inner tube and an outer tube is disposed between an open end of the inner tube and an end of a delivery port, and in which an opening is formed in a plane in which the flow-control plate is disposed only in a range of the flow-control plate of 27.5° or more and 332.5° or less in terms of a central angle with respect to a reference line Lpassing through the axis of the outer tube and the central position in the width direction of the delivery port.

A bridle device and a method for producing a steel strip in which snaking of a steel strip that occurs during production of a high-silicon steel strip is suppressed. The bridle device includes a pair of upper and lower rotatable endless belts or a pair of upper and lower rotatable caterpillars configured to pinch a steel strip. The bridle device is movable or swingable in a steel strip width direction by using a steering mechanism. The bridle device further includes a rolling reduction mechanism configured to perform rolling reduction on a pinched portion of the steel strip by using the pair of upper and lower endless belts or the pair of upper and lower caterpillars. The steering mechanism moves or swings the bridle device in the steel strip width direction, and the rolling reduction mechanism performs rolling reduction on one of end portions in the steel strip width direction.

Bridle device, method for controlling snaking of steel strip, and method for producing steel strip

To provide a roller scraper capable of having a long service life. A roller scraper that removes attached substances on a surface of a roller, the roller scraper including a scraper main body that is supported on a floor portion and a scraping claw that is disposed in such a manner as to project in a width direction of the scraper main body. The scraping claw is placed against the roller in such a manner as to be in contact with the surface of the roller, and an opening is formed in the scraper main body.

Roller scraper

A sealing device is installed in heating treatment equipment through which a steel strip passes, the device including a rotary damper which is placed above the steel strip so as to be in contact with the steel strip, and a roll which is placed below the steel strip so that the roll opposes the rotary damper to form a pair consisting of the rotary damper and the roll opposing each other, the steel strip passing through a gap, which is formed between the rotary damper and the roll opposing each other, in which two pairs each of which is the pair consisting of the rotary damper and the roll opposing each other are arranged in tandem in a moving direction of the steel strip in the heating treatment equipment, and an inert gas is fed into a space defined by the two pairs arranged in tandem.
