HOT METAL DESULFURIZATION APPARATUS AND METHOD OF FIXING ITS MOVING CARRIAGE

To provide a hot meatal desulfurization apparatus capable of ensuring a moving carriage of a stirring device to be fixed and a method of fixing the moving carriage.SOLUTION: A hot metal desulfurization apparatus 1 includes a moving path connecting a plurality of hot metal ladle devices, a moving carriage 24 supporting a stirring device 20 and movable along a moving path 28, and a plurality of stopper mechanisms 40 disposed between the moving carriage 24 and the moving path 28. The stopper mechanism 40 has a fixed side member 44 fixed to the moving path 28, a moving side member 41 installed on the moving carriage 24, and an abutting mechanism(a drive cylinder and a press-fitting member 43) for bringing the moving side member 41 into contact with the fixed side member 44, and in at least one pair of the plurality of the stopper mechanisms 40, horizontal components in an abutment direction of the moving side members 41 with respect to the fixed side member 44 are arranged in opposite directions.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 11 【課題】攪拌装置の移動台車を確実に固定できる溶銑脱硫装置およびその移動台車固定方法を提供すること。【解決手段】溶銑脱硫装置１は、複数の溶銑鍋装置を結ぶ移動経路と、攪拌装置２０を支持しかつ移動経路２８に沿って移動可能な移動台車２４と、移動台車２４と移動経路２８との間に設置された複数のストッパ機構４０と、を有し、ストッパ機構４０は、移動経路２８に固定された固定側部材４４と、移動台車２４に設置された移動側部材４１と、移動側部材４１を固定側部材４４に当接させる当接機構（駆動シリンダおよび圧入部材４３）と、を有し、複数のストッパ機構４０のうち少なくとも一対は、各々の移動側部材４１の固定側部材４４に対する当接方向の水平成分が互いに逆向きに配置されている。【選択図】図１１
