Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0103313A1] A transportable vessel 1 for molten iron has a cylindrical section 2 having an opening permitting access to the interior of the vessel 1. The opening is filled by a removable cover 7 held by flanges 11, 12 to flanges 9, 10 surrounding the opening in the vessel. The cover is provided with an opening 6 forming a spout. To pour molten iron from the vessel 1, the vessel is rotated about its ends 4 and the molten iron is poured from opening 6. An optional splash guard 22 may be provided over the cover 7. In this way a large opening (when the cover 7 is removed) is provided for easy access to the interior of the vessel 1 during e.g. lining replacement without weakening the vessel 1. The opening 6 in the cover may be made any suitable size to prevent excessive heat loss.
