Abstract (en)

[origin: US5391863A] PCT No. PCT/DE91/00992 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 22, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 22, 1993 PCT Filed Dec. 18, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/11647 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 9, 1992.A hollow electrical conductor coolable to extremely low temperatures is disclosed. The conductor is hollow and has a connection for the introduction of extremely cold gases in a liquid or gaseous state and an outlet for the gases. At least one hose element (5; 24) is arranged in the hollow conductor (1; 19; 22; 23) and is connected to a gas connection and provided with perforations (6) to allow the gas to pass out. The hollow conductor (1; 19; 22; 23) is useful as an induction coil for induction furnaces for heating, keeping hot or melting metallic material. The external diameter of the hose element (5; 24) is smaller than the internal diameter of the hollow conductor (1; 19; 22; 23). The hollow conductor has passages (6a) in the wall to allow the gas to pass out and is fitted with a jacket (8) which provides an annular clearance to the hollow conductor and the gas emerging from the hollow conductor (1; 19; 22; 23) is collected and carried away.
