Definitions

  • the invention relates to an oven for the thermal treatment of glass sheets, in particular an oven intended to bring these sheets to the bending and / or tempering temperature.
  • Such ovens generally consist of a frame in sections on which are fixed plates consisting of an insulating body carrying electrical heating elements.
  • the glass sheets can be treated in a horizontal position or in a vertical position.
  • they are conveyed either on a trolley which crosses the furnace, or directly on carrier rollers, or on a gas cushion; the heating elements are arranged either in the roof of the oven, or under this roof.
  • the sheet is generally suspended from hanging clips supported by a mobile carriage on a rail located above the oven; the heating elements are then placed on the vertical walls of the oven opposite the glass sheets.
  • the interchangeable elements cover the entire wall, extending over the entire height of the oven; in horizontal direction their length is at least equal to the height. They therefore have large dimensions and a high weight because the insulating wall consists of a refractory material mounted in a frame of corresponding dimensions. Their replacement can only be done with great difficulty.
  • the object of the invention is to improve such an oven with interchangeable elements by making it possible to replace defective elements with a minimum of work and in a very short time.
  • the design of this oven will allow it to be mounted simply; It will take into account the expansion of the wall elements and will allow them to be adjusted precisely.
  • the oven can be made of light materials and will therefore, because of its reduced mass, have a low heat capacity, which will make it easier to adjust.
  • the oven according to the invention is such that at least one of its walls is made up of a set of elements of small dimension relative to the surface of the wall, each of which is formed by a plate provided on its rear face. of a support member, several of these elements being slidably fixed by their support member on the same support rail running all along the wall, a certain number of support rails supporting the corresponding wall elements being fixed so removable and adjustable in position, outside the oven, on its frame, transversely to the frame profiles on which they are based.
  • the various wall elements may, because of their relatively small dimensions, be provided on their rear face with simple support members, and the faces along which the neighboring elements come into contiguous contact may be free of any projecting part. They can therefore be assembled without discontinuity to form the wall of the furnace, without however posing difficulties for their replacement because they are mobile, both in groups forming wall segments integral with a carrier rail, and individually along this rail. It is thus possible to separate the various segments from one another in order to remove one, after having freed from the frame the rail which supports it, without being hindered by the neighboring segments previously discarded or damaging the adjacent surfaces. On the carrier rail thus released, one can then unlock the supports of the various elements and slide them to release them.
  • the carrier rail is again fitted on the frame of the oven.
  • the position of the supporting rails and that of the elements on these rails are then adjusted so as to constitute by juxtaposition of the various elements a continuous wall.
  • a particularly advantageous version is obtained by the use of wall elements, the insulating part of which is a plate made of ceramic fibers.
  • the heating devices can then consist of radiant bodies suspended freely on supports fixed to the insulating plates or even incorporated in whole or in part in the insulating plates.
  • Such ceramic fiber wall elements have the advantage that, given their very low weight, they can be provided with very simple support devices which leave their lateral faces completely free, thus making it possible to attach it to neighboring elements.
  • the furnace shown in the figures is a quenching furnace for glass sheets suspended from hanging clamps in which these sheets are heated to a temperature close to the softening point.
  • This oven has, in its roof, a slot-shaped passage through which the glass sheet is lowered into the oven, then lifted out of the oven as soon as it reaches the desired temperature.
  • Such ovens can also be made in so-called "through” ovens.
  • the glass sheet hanger then moves along the roof slot, thereby transporting the glass sheet lengthwise from the oven.
  • the inlet and outlet walls may then also have a slot for the passage of the glass sheet.
  • the invention relates to the structure of the walls provided with these members.
  • the oven shown in Figure 1 in its essential parts includes a steel frame composed of horizontal profiles, 1 at the bottom and 2 at the top, vertical profiles 3 at the corner of the large faces of the oven and the end walls. , and of transverse sections 4, connecting the two large faces. Inside this frame and on the profiles 1 is placed the sole 7, made of refractory material. The end walls consist of a wall 8 made of refractory material. Refractory blocks 9 constitute the roof of the furnace but form between them a slot to allow the introduction of the glass sheet.
  • the assembly thus described composed of the metal frame and the parts of refractory material, sole, roof and end walls, forms a self-supporting structure; it constitutes the framework of the oven, and the heating walls which themselves do not contribute to the stability of the system are arranged between the elements of the framework.
  • the wall openings left free between the elements of the framework are filled with a set of rectangular or square wall elements 12, mounted contiguously. These elements carry, on the face facing the interior of the oven, heating resistors 13 which may be totally or partially incorporated therein, or be suspended from supports in front of this face; they consist of an insulating body of low specific weight and high insulating power.
  • the "FIBROTHAL" (registered trademark) heating modules of the company BULTEN-KANTHAL GmbH are used for this purpose, essentially consisting of a plate of ceramic fibers and which have a very low specific weight of 200 kg. / m 3.
  • the heating elements of these modules are resistors incorporated in the front face of the insulating body. Because of their very low mass, the thermal inertia of these modules is extremely reduced so that an oven made up of such elements has a very short heating and cooling time, which makes precise temperature regulation easier. .
  • Each element 12 is provided with a support constituted by a tube 15 reduced at one end to a metal plate 16 and at the other end to a sleeve 17.
  • the metal plate 16 is fixed to the wall element 12, preferably by means of a heat resistant lut, this directly on the rear part of the wall element as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 or by means of an additional insulating body 18 as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the insulating power of the wall element is thus reinforced if necessary.
  • Several wall elements 12 provided with their supports are placed on a profiled support rail 22 by sliding the sleeves 17 of their support along the support rail. When the location of the sleeves on the rail 22 is correct, they are locked by a wing nut 23.
  • the support rails 22 are then arranged vertically against the frame of the furnace so that the wall elements 12 projecting in front of the rail 22 can be introduced at the corresponding location on the wall.
  • the supporting rails 22 can, as shown in FIG. 1, be fixed to the profiles 1 and 2 of the frame by means of screws 24 in slots 25 which make it possible to move them horizontally to ensure correct positioning of the elements wall 12.
  • FIG. 2 Another advantageous embodiment for fixing the vertical support rails 22 on the sections 1 and 2 of the framework of the furnace is shown in FIG. 2.
  • Each carrier rail is provided at its upper and lower ends with a rotary lock 28 actuated by a lever 29.
  • a rotary lock 28 actuated by a lever 29.
  • the bolt 30 of the lock 28 is pressed against the wing of the corresponding section 1 or 2, or else it is released from these profiles if one of the wall elements 12 superimposed on the rail 22 to form the wall segment must be removed for exchange or repair purposes.
