ABSTRACT:
A seal is provided to prevent gas flow through the opening in the converter enclosure that accommodates the converted hood and the annular skirt that is telescopically movable thereon. The seal comprises a fixed ring on the enclosure and a movable ring attached to the skirt. The latter contains a liquid body for sealing purposes. The configuration of the rings is such that they cooperate to define a labyrinth to prevent kish accumulation in the liquid seal. Pressurized air can be supplied to augment the liquid seal.
