Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is a support intended to receive products to be baked in an oven or dried in a dryer.
- This support is more particularly intended for the firing of ceramic products "honeycomb" type like catalyst supports.
- honeycomb elements generally consist of blocks parallelepipedic or cylindrical which are traversed right through by a multiplicity of square or triangular section channels which may be less than 1 millimeter with partitions from 1 mm to 3/100 of a millimeter thick.
- perforated plates does not allow circulation homogeneous in all the channels from where the problems related to the differences of flow between open or closed channels.
- the present invention relates to a method providing a solution to this problem.
- the method according to the invention consists in placing the catalyst elements to be cooked or dry, their channels being vertical, on a parallelepipedic support constituted by a ceramic foam so that the catalyst element channels are in position vertical to the support which causes the hot gases to pass through the support from side to side and penetrate into said channels.
- Ceramic foam is a known product which is mainly used as filter in foundry molds: molten metal is poured over these foam filters of ceramic, the molten metal passes through this filter and fills the mold.
- Porous ceramic foam plates are already known and applied to the Lours estate (EP-A-307,319).
- the ceramic support must not be too thick, because the pressure drop which the flow of hot gases undergoes when passing through it would be such that this gas flow would not circulate, or at least would circulate poorly inside channels passing through the catalyst support block.
- the support must therefore be a thin plate, that is to say of a thickness between 1 and 5 centimeters.

- the plate 1 can be made up of two parts 1a and 1b placed side by side on the bars 5.
- bars 5 can, like additional bars 15, be arranged in the mass of the plate 1. But as it is necessary that the foam ceramic is not in contact with the supports 4, cleaning on the underside 3 of the plate 1 of the grooves 7 which make the bars 5 appear so that they come in contact with load-bearing elements 4.

Description
La présente invention a pour objet un support destiné à recevoir des produits devant être cuits dans un four ou séchés dans un séchoir.The subject of the present invention is a support intended to receive products to be baked in an oven or dried in a dryer.
Ce support est plus particulièrement destiné à la cuisson de produits céramiques de type "nid d'abeille" comme les supports catalyseur.This support is more particularly intended for the firing of ceramic products "honeycomb" type like catalyst supports.
Ces éléments en nid d'abeille sont généralement constitués de blocs parallélépipédiques ou cylindriques qui sont traversés de part en part d'une multiplicité de canaux de section carrée ou triangulaire pouvant être inférieure à 1 millimètre avec des cloisons de 1 mm à 3/100 de millimètre d'épaisseur.These honeycomb elements generally consist of blocks parallelepipedic or cylindrical which are traversed right through by a multiplicity of square or triangular section channels which may be less than 1 millimeter with partitions from 1 mm to 3/100 of a millimeter thick.
Du fait de leur faible section et de leur relativement grande longueur (par rapport à la section), ces canaux sont très difficilement traversés par les gaz chauds du four de cuisson et leur cuisson est irrégulière ce qui nuit gravement à leur qualité.Due to their small cross-section and their relatively long length (compared in section), these channels are very difficult for the hot gases from the furnace to pass through. cooking and their cooking is irregular which seriously affects their quality.
L'utilisation de plaques perforées ne permet pas d'obtenir une circulation homogène dans tous les canaux d'où les problèmes liés aux différences de flux entre canaux ouverts ou fermés.The use of perforated plates does not allow circulation homogeneous in all the channels from where the problems related to the differences of flow between open or closed channels.
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé apportant une solution à ce problème.The present invention relates to a method providing a solution to this problem.
Le procédé selon l'invention consiste à placer les éléments catalyseurs à cuire ou sécher, leurs canaux étant verticaux, sur un support parallélépipédique constitué par une mousse céramique de sorte que les canaux de l'élément catalyseur soient en position verticale par rapport au support ce qui a pour effet que les gaz chauds traversent le support de part en part et pénètrent dans lesdits canaux.The method according to the invention consists in placing the catalyst elements to be cooked or dry, their channels being vertical, on a parallelepipedic support constituted by a ceramic foam so that the catalyst element channels are in position vertical to the support which causes the hot gases to pass through the support from side to side and penetrate into said channels.
La mousse céramique est un produit connu qui est principalement utilisé comme filtre dans les moules de fonderie : on verse le métal en fusion sur ces filtres en mousse de céramique, le métal en fusion traverse ce filtre et remplit le moule.Ceramic foam is a known product which is mainly used as filter in foundry molds: molten metal is poured over these foam filters of ceramic, the molten metal passes through this filter and fills the mold.
Plaques poreuses en mousse céramique sont déjà connues et appliquées au domaine de Lours (EP-A-307 319).Porous ceramic foam plates are already known and applied to the Lours estate (EP-A-307,319).
Les travaux de la demanderesse ont permis de découvrir que l'on pouvait faire remplir à cette matière, la mousse céramique, une fonction totalement différente que celle pour laquelle elle a été conçue.The plaintiff's work revealed that it was possible to do fill this material, ceramic foam, with a completely different function than the one for which it was designed.
Il s'avère cependant qu'il ne faut pas que le support en matière céramique soit trop épais, parce que la perte de charge que subit le flux de gaz chauds en le traversant serait tel que ce flux gazeux ne circulerait pas, ou du moins circulerait mal à l'intérieur des canaux traversant le bloc support de catalyseurs.It turns out, however, that the ceramic support must not be too thick, because the pressure drop which the flow of hot gases undergoes when passing through it would be such that this gas flow would not circulate, or at least would circulate poorly inside channels passing through the catalyst support block.
Il faut donc que le support soit une plaque mince, c'est-à-dire d'une épaisseur comprise entre 1 et 5 centimètres.The support must therefore be a thin plate, that is to say of a thickness between 1 and 5 centimeters.
Mais alors, comme la mousse céramique a une très faible résistance au poinçonnement et à la flexion, il faut prévoir des moyens pour la rigidifier.But then, as the ceramic foam has a very low resistance to punching and bending, means must be provided to stiffen it.
Selon l'invention, ces moyens sont constitués par des barres portant la plaque en mousse céramique, ces barres reposant sur les éléments porteurs du four.According to the invention, these means consist of bars carrying the plate in ceramic foam, these bars resting on the load-bearing elements of the oven.
A titre d'exemple non limitatif et pour faciliter la compréhension de l'invention
on a représenté aux dessins annexés :
En se reportant à la figure 1, on voit que le dispositif selon l'invention est
constitué par une plaque 1, d'épaisseur faible, c'est-à-dire comprise entre 1,5 et 2,5
centimètres, qui est en mousse céramique.Referring to FIG. 1, it can be seen that the device according to the invention is
consisting of a
Cette plaque 1 est destinée à servir de support à un ou plusieurs éléments en
céramique catalytiques qui seront déposés dessus de façon que les canaux multiples qui
les traversent de part en part soient verticaux ou encore perpendiculaires à la surface
supérieure 2 de la plaque 1.This
Les éléments support de catalyseurs, ne faisant pas partie de l'invention, ne sont pas représentés. The catalyst support elements, which are not part of the invention, are not not shown.
La plaque 1 doit être portée par les éléments porteurs 4 du four (également non
représentés).
Mais la plaque 1, n'ayant qu'une très faible résistance au poinçonnement, ne peut
pas être déposée directement sur les éléments porteurs 4. De plus, n'ayant qu'une très
faible résistance mécanique, elle risque de se briser entre les éléments porteurs tels que
les éléments 4.But the
Pour éliminer cet inconvénient on dispose une pluralité de barres 5 (deux au
minimum), ces barres 5 étant parallèles entre elles et reposant sur les éléments porteurs
4.To eliminate this drawback, there are a plurality of bars 5 (two at the
minimum), these
Mais au contact entre la face inférieure 3 de la plaque 1 et les barres 5, la matière
dont est constituée la plaque 1 ne va pas résister aux efforts de poinçonnement.But on contact between the
Pour éliminer cet inconvénient on ménage dans la face inférieure 3 des rainures
6 dans lesquelles les barres 5 vont venir s'encastrer.To eliminate this drawback, grooves are formed in the
Dans tous les exemples représentés aux figures 1 à 6, les barres 5 sont
cylindriques et les rainures 6 sont semi-cylindriques.In all the examples shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the
Il en résulte que les barres 5 font saillie au-delà de la surface de la face inférieure
3 de la plaque 1 d'environ la moitié de leur diamètre.As a result, the
Les barres 5 sont posées sur les éléments porteurs 4.The
Mais comme lesdites barres 5 font saillie au-delà de la face inférieure 3 de la
plaque 1, la mousse céramique ne vient pas en contact avec les éléments porteurs 4.But as said
Ainsi, il n'y a pas de phénomène de poinçonnement sur la face inférieure 3 de la
plaque 1 et il n'y a pas de phénomène de flexion de ladite plaque 1.Thus, there is no punching phenomenon on the
De préférence, comme cela est représenté, les éléments porteurs 4 comportent
des encoches 7 correspondant aux rainures 6.Preferably, as shown, the
Sur la figure 2 les mêmes éléments portent les mêmes références.In Figure 2 the same elements have the same references.
La seule différence avec l'exemple de la figure 1 provient de ce que la distance
séparant les deux éléments porteurs 4 est supérieure à la longueur de la plaque 1.The only difference with the example in figure 1 is that the distance
separating the two carrying
Sur la figure 3 également, les mêmes éléments portent les mêmes références. Also in FIG. 3, the same elements have the same references.
Sur cette figure, on voit que en plus des barres 5 qui s'étendent sur toute la
longueur de la plaque 1, on a disposé des barres complémentaires 15, qui sont
perpendiculaires aux barres 5.In this figure, we see that in addition to the
Alors que les barres 5 font saillie au-delà de la surface de la face inférieure 3 de
la plaque 1, les barres complémentaires 15 sont disposées à l'intérieur de la masse de la
plaque 1 dans des alésages ménagés à cet effet.While the
Sur cette figure 3 on voit également que la plaque 1 peut être constituée de deux
parties 1a et 1b placées côte à côte sur les barres 5.In this figure 3 we also see that the
Sur la figure 4, on voit que les barres complémentaires 15 peuvent reposer sur
des éléments de support complémentaires 14.In FIG. 4, it can be seen that the
Sur la figure 5 on voit que les barres 5 peuvent, comme les barres additionnelles
15, être disposées dans la masse de la plaque 1. Mais comme il faut que la mousse
céramique ne soit pas en contact avec les supports 4, on ménage dans la face inférieure
3 de la plaque 1 des rainures 7 qui font apparaítre les barres 5 afin qu'elles viennent en
contact avec les éléments porteurs 4.In Figure 5 we see that
La présente invention a été décrite dans son application à la cuisson d'éléments catalytiques mais elle n'est pas limitée à cette application particulière ; elle peut être avantageusement utilisée pour tout produit devant être traversé verticalement par un flux de gaz chauds.The present invention has been described in its application to cooking elements catalytic but it is not limited to this particular application; she may be advantageously used for any product to be crossed vertically by a hot gas flow.
