The invention relates to a distribution chute (100) for a charging device of the rotary pivotal type, e.g. for a shaft furnace. The chute has an upstream mounting head (114) and a chute body (112) having an elongated downstream chute portion (116) with a longitudinal axis (L). It further includes at least two lateral suspensions (130) at the mounting head for mounting the chute to at least two corresponding support flanges of the charging device, the support flanges (140) being pivotable about the pivoting axis (B) in a raising sense (R) for raising the outlet (120) to a radially outer-most charging position and in an opposite lowering sense for lowering the outlet to a radially innermost charging position with respect to the rotational axis. The suspensions (130) define a first and a second tilt points, which define, in turn, a tilt axis (T), about which the weight of the chute exerts torque onto support flanges of the charging device when the chute is mounted. The suspensions are configured in such a way that the ratio of the distance between the tilt axis and the pivoting axis to the distance between the first and second tilt points (which corresponds at least approximatively to the distance between the suspensions) amounts to 0.25 at most. According to the invention, the suspensions (130, 230, 330) are arranged so that an acute angle (a) from the longitudinal axis (L) to a virtual plane (P) through the tilt axis (T) and the center of gravity (G) of the chute has an angular measure in the raising sense (R) that has a small positive or a negligibly negative value.

A charging device for a shaft furnace comprises a distribution chute for bulk material and a drive mechanism for the distribution chute. The distribution chute has a trough-shaped main part with an open impact section and an outlet section. The main part provides a sliding channel between the impact section and the outlet section. The drive mechanism for the distribution chute is capable of rotating the distribution chute about an essentially vertical axis and pivoting the distribution chute about an essentially horizontal axis so as to allow distribution of bulk material on a charging surface of the shaft furnace. According to the present invention, the distribution chute comprises a circumferentially closed funnel portion which tapers in the direction of flow and is arranged downstream of the impact section and with its outlet at the downstream end of said trough-shaped main part.

A method for calibrating a weighing system of a blast furnace top hopper and a corresponding weighing system are disclosed. The method comprises the step of using at least one actuator for exerting a vertical net force with a certain magnitude onto the hopper, so as to simulate a certain weight of charge material in the hopper; and the step of determining the magnitude of the vertical net force. According to the invention, the method further comprises the step of determining the magnitude of a pressure exerting a lifting force onto said hopper and the step of using the determined magnitude of the vertical net force and the determined magnitude of the pressure to establish calibration data for the weighing system.

A device for distributing loose materials, arranged in a curtain of loose material tipped out from a means of conveying loose material includes a box with a top opening, at least one wall which extends transverse to the curtain of material inside the box to subdivide the box into at least two compartments, and at least two tipping-out means, one of the tipping-out means being associated with each of the compartments of the box, the tipping-out means being directed in such a way as to deflect the material received in the respective compartments into a distinct region of the hopper. The method for loading a hopper includes tipping loose material out in the form of a curtain of material over the hopper and splitting the curtain into at least two partial streams so as to deflect each of the partial streams towards a distinct region of the hopper.

A distributor chute for bulk material, in particular for use in a bell-less blast furnace top charging device, has several inclined transverse plates in the region of its impact zone. The transverse plates create retaining pockets between their inner faces and the surface of the distributor chute. Two adjacent transverse plates limit between the outer face of the first transverse plate and the inner face or the second transverse plate a retaining chamber. If the inclination of the chute is reduced, the bulk material moves from the retaining pocket to the retaining chamber.

A multiple hopper charging installation for a shaft furnace includes a rotary distribution device for distributing bulk material in the shaft furnace by rotating a distribution member about a central axis of the shaft furnace and at least two hoppers arranged in parallel and offset from the central axis above the rotary distribution device. Each hopper has a lower funnel part ending in an outlet portion and each hopper has a material gate valve with a shutter member associated to its outlet portion. According to the invention, each funnel part is configured asymmetrically with its outlet portion being eccentric and arranged proximate to the central axis, each outlet portion is oriented vertically so as to produce a substantially vertical outflow of bulk material and each material gate valve has a one-piece shutter member and is configured with its respective shutter member opening in a direction pointing away from the central axis such that any partial valve opening area is located on the side of the associated outlet portion proximate to the central axis.
