Abstract
A rotatable or tiltable metallurgical vessel, in particular a pig iron mixer, is mounted in a fixed bearing and an expansion bearing. A toothed element is arranged on the vessel jacket between the two bearings and a driven counter-element engages the toothed element. The expansion bearing and the fixed bearing are designed as slide bearings that include raceways fastened to the vessel jacket at a distance from each other, and arcuate slideways formed of slide plates that accommodate the raceways.
