Abstract
A lance port seal for BOF vessel gas collecting hoods includes a pair of seal portions each having registrable semi-circular openings for receiving an oxygen lance therethrough. A support assembly mounts the seal members above the lance port for limited two-dimensional movement in a plane generally normal to the axis of the lance. The seal portions are also pivotally mounted on the support assembly for movement toward and away from the other member for permitting insertion and removal of the lance and for re-establishing the seal after the lance is in position.
