Estimating the term…
A metallurgical probe has a probe longitudinal axis and an open end face. The probe is fitted within a bearing point in such a manner that the open end face faces a predetermined insertion direction. The bearing point has probe centering elements to hold the probe in a predetermined probe position as seen transversely with respect to the probe longitudinal axis. A device inserts an end of the contact rod into a contact rod centering device, in an insertion direction running transversely with respect to the probe longitudinal axis, until the end of the contact rod is positioned, on account of the insertion into the contact rod centering device, in a predetermined contact rod position, in which the end of the contact rod is opposite the open end face. The contact rod is then moved in a direction of the probe longitudinal axis and is inserted into the probe.
A method for inserting a contact rod into a metallurgical probe which has a probe longitudinal axis and an open end face, the method comprising:
A bearing point for a metallurgical probe which has a probe longitudinal axis and an open end face, comprising:
A holding frame having a plurality of bearing points respectively for a plurality of metallurgical probes, each having a probe longitudinal axis and an open end face, each bearing point comprising:
