Abstract
Method for repairing the damaged refractory lining wall of a blast furnace which includes cutting an opening through the steel shell and the refractory bricks of the furnace, inserting an injection nozzle for injecting a repair material into the opening, the injection nozzle being provided with a plurality of reinforcing studs, injecting the repair material into the furnace under pressure via the injection nozzle, and simultaneously imparting an external force onto the plurality of reinforcing studs to automatically build up a repaired refractory brick having the reinforcing studs imbedded therein.
Claims3
A method for repairing the refractory brick lining on the inside of an outer metal wall of a blast furnace by filling a hole worn in the lining with a repair material, which method comprises the steps of:
- inserting an injection nozzle through the outer metal wall from the outside of the furnace into the hole in said lining, placing a plurality of reinforcing studs in said injection nozzle in a manner for permitting them to spread out from said injection nozzle into substantially radially extending positions;
- and
- injecting repair material under pressure into said injection nozzle and against said reinforcing studs for spreading said reinforcing studs to said radially extending positions, the injecting repair material also being forced from said nozzle into said hole for filling said hole with said reinforcing studs embedded in said thus injected repair material.
