Apparatus for manufacturing compacted irons of reduced materials comprising fine direct reduced irons and apparatus for manufacturing molten irons using the same

An apparatus for manufacturing compacted irons comprising:

• a charging hopper into which reduced materials containing fine reduced irons are charged;
• screw feeders installed inside the charging hopper and making an acute angle with a vertical direction, the screw feeders discharging the reduced materials containing fine reduced irons which enter into the charging hopper;
• and
• a couple of rolls separated from each other to form a gap between the rolls, the couple of rolls compacting the reduced materials containing fine reduced irons discharged from the charging hopper by the screw feeders and manufacturing compacted irons,
• wherein each screw feeder is arranged side by side along an axis direction of the couple of rolls and an extension of the center axis of each screw feeder passes through the gap, and
• wherein the apparatus for manufacturing compacted irons further comprises a feeding box installed under the charging hopper, transferring reduced materials containing fine reduced irons to the couple of rolls and forming a bulged space under the charging hopper which faces the feeding box.
