METHOD FOR ADJUSTING THE TORQUE OF A CONVERTER AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTATION THEREOF Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC C21C5/46 

FIELD: metallurgy.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to metallurgy, in particular, to a supporting structure for an argon-oxygen converter. The converter in the supporting structure by means of supporting trunnions is installed in the transmission, configured to rotate or tilt, respectively, and is connected thereto, configured to rotate jointly. The transmission by means of a torque lever is constantly supported on the foundation to reduce the costs for the corresponding supporting apparatus and simultaneously provide a possibility of better control of the torque applied by the converter to the transmission. The time-varying actual torque M_Ist (t) applied by the converter to the transmission is therein adjusted to the preset required torque M_Soll.

EFFECT: invention provides a possibility of preventing the swinging of the converter at a resonant frequency, wherein said swinging causes severe damage to parts of the supporting structure, in particular, the transmission and the torque lever.
