Abstract
A device for automatically coupling a lance for injecting a fluid into a molten metal bath to a manifold for supplying the fluid to the lance includes means for hitching the lance rigidly to a lance-carrying carriage which can be displaced along a slide rail, and means ensuring the support of the manifold with respect to the lance-carrying carriage and enabling the manifold to be displaced vertically with respect to the lance-carrying carriage, or vice versa.
