EQUIPMENT FOR MEASURING AND CONTROL OF THE LOAD MATERIAL INTRODUCED TO THE FURNACE Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC F27B3/28 G05B19/418 

FIELD: measuring equipment.

SUBSTANCE: inventions group relates to equipment for measuring and controlling the introduction of feed material and scrap metal into a furnace. The system and equipment for measuring and controlling the introduction of feed material into an electric arc furnace (EAF) contains an automatic control device that introduces the feed material; a measuring device located between the EAF and an oscillating platform, which contains an upper plate slidable relative to the EAF, a lower plate attached to the oscillating platform, and an annular structure located between them and having a peripheral annular wall, the annular plate extending along the entire annular structure, and a contact element associated with the annular plate, which at the top comes into contact with the top plate and below approaches without coming into contact with the bottom plate; and one or more sensors measuring the deformation of the annular plate after a load is applied to the top plate.

EFFECT: increasing the accuracy of measurement and control of the introduction of feed material and scrap metal into the furnace.
