Abstract
Abstract This steel stock cooling apparatus has injection pipes in each of which one end is communicated with a water supply portion, the other end is formed into an injection opening for injecting water supplied from the water supply portion and the intermediate portion is formed with at least one air introducing hole communicated with an air supply portion, whereby the water supplied is mixed with air supplied from the air introducing hole so as to be injected in the forms of droplets. The pattern of the injection is formed into an ellispe having its major axis in the direction of the air introducing hole, and desired patterns can be formed by changing the position where the air introducing hole is installed.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
107 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus wherein a mixture of water with air is injected onto steel stocks for cooling, said apparatus comprising: a main body; injection pipes which are each communicated at one end thereof with a water supply section and each inject at the other end thereof water supplied from said water supply section; at least one air introducing hole communicated with an air supply section is formed at the intermediate portion of each of the injection pipes; said water supply section and air supply section are holes formed in said main body, respectively; and the axes of said holes are in parallel to each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
107 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus wherein a mixture of water with air is injected onto steel stocks for cooling, said apparatus comprising: a main body; injection pipes which are each communicated at one end thereof with a water supply section and each inject at the other end thereof water supplied from said water supply section; at least one air introducing hole communicated with an air supply section is formed at the intermediate portion of each of the injection pipes; said water supply section and air supply section are holes formed in said main body, respectively; and the axes of said holes are in parallel to each other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that: said water supply section and air supply section are columnar holes, respectively.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that: said injection pipes are straight pipes perpendicularly intersecting the water supply section and air supply section.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that: said air introducing hole or holes are through-holes perpendicularly intersecting the axes of the injection pipes.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
40 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus as set forth in claim 2, characterized in that: said water supply section and air supply section are provided therein with internal threads being connected to a water supply pipe and an air supply pipe.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
47 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus as set forth in claim 5, characterized in that: a flow rate control valve is provided at the intermediate portion of said water supply pipe; and a constant flow rate device is provided at the intermediate portion of said air supply pipe.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
142 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus wherein a mixture of water with air is injected onto steel stocks for cooling, said apparatus comprising: a main body; a water supply hole comprising a cylindrical bore in said body; an air supply hole comprising a cylindrical bore in said body parallel to said water supply hole; injection pipes communicating with said water supply hole at one end, extending through said air supply hole and communicating with the exterior of said main body at the other end; and at least one air introducing hole provided in said injection pipe in that portion of said pipe extending through said air supply hole whereby water enters said one end of said injection pipe, air enters said air introducing hole and water and air is sprayed out of said other end of said injection pipe in an eliptical pattern.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
142 words
A steel stock cooling apparatus wherein a mixture of water with air is injected onto steel stocks for cooling, said apparatus comprising: a main body; a water supply hole comprising a cylindrical bore in said body; an air supply hole comprising a cylindrical bore in said body parallel to said water supply hole; injection pipes communicating with said water supply hole at one end, extending through said air supply hole and communicating with the exterior of said main body at the other end; and at least one air introducing hole provided in said injection pipe in that portion of said pipe extending through said air supply hole whereby water enters said one end of said injection pipe, air enters said air introducing hole and water and air is sprayed out of said other end of said injection pipe in an eliptical pattern.
