Abstract
A metallurgical vessel for a melting device for liquid metals has a vessel top, a vessel bottom provided with a collar, and an intermediate ring arranged between the vessel top and the vessel bottom. The vessel bottom receives a melt defining a melting zone within the vessel bottom and, above the melting zone, a slag zone for slag is provided. The intermediate ring is arranged at a level of the slag zone. The vessel top completely bridges the intermediate ring and is supported below the intermediate ring on the collar of the vessel bottom so that the intermediate ring is statically completely relieved of any load.
