Definitions

  • the invention relates to a crucible annealing furnace, in particular for steel strip or wire coils, with a Glühsokkel receiving the annealed, with a gas-tight patch guard, with a mounted in the glow base radial fan, which includes an impeller and a rotor surrounding the impeller for circulating a protective gas in the Protective hood comprises, with a heat exchanger for cooling the protective gas, which is connected on the input side via a flow channel to the pressure side of the radial blower and the output side opens into an annular gap between the nozzle and the guard, and with an axially displaceable in the pressure-side flow path of the radial deflector for optional Connection of the flow channel leading to the heat exchanger to the radial fan.
  • axially adjustable slide In the flow channels axially adjustable slide are mounted, which can be advanced in the pressure-side flow path of the radial fan to the aspirated from the protective gas flow over the cooling chamber to lead, which is connected via an outer annular gap between the nozzle of the radial fan and the protective hood with the protective hood in fluid communication.
  • the flow channels In the lowered slide position, the flow channels are closed, so that the axially sucked inert gas is passed through the impeller of the radial fan through the nozzle in the circuit in the protective hood.
  • the slides To cool the protective gas, the slides are raised, which has the deflection of the protective gas down to the cooling chamber result. Since the glow base must be broken down, the arrangement of the axial flow channels adversely affects the carrying capacity of the glow plug.
  • unfavorable flow conditions result in the deflection of the protective gas to the cooling chamber, because the switching device must be provided in the region of the highest exit velocity of the protective gas from the impeller.
  • the invention is therefore the object of a Haubenglühofen of the type described with simple structural means in such a way that an advantageous protective gas cooling can be achieved without having to intervene in the construction of the Glühsockels sustainable.
  • the invention solves the problem set by the fact that the protective cover is mounted gas-tight via an annular flange, that the heat exchanger is below the annular flange, that the flow channel consists of an outgoing from the outer periphery of the diffuser, concentric with the annular gap annular channel and that the deflection as the diffuser outside enclosing, annular deflecting slide is formed.
  • the deflection device which deflects the protective gas to be cooled into the annular duct leading to the heat exchanger is assigned to the outlet side of the distributor, which allows advantageous flow conditions for the gas flow to be deflected, especially as the deflection valve surrounds the distributor continuously.
  • the outgoing from the outer periphery of the nozzle, designed as an annular channel flow channel also provides an advantageous prerequisite for a heat exchanger assembly in the form of a ring surrounding the glow socket, which allows a simple seal the guard over an annular flange, without having to make separate cooling measures in this area.
  • the arranged below the annular flange of the protective heat exchanger ensures yes on the cooled inert gas for a corresponding cooling in this area.
  • the annular channel and the annular gap can be separated from each other by a cylindrical wall, which is mounted axially displaceable and carries the annular deflecting slide. Since the cylindrical wall is used to adjust the annular deflecting slide, otherwise required drive connections between the actuator and the Umlenkschieber omitted.
  • vanes of the diffuser at their outer end faces recesses for the Umlenkschieber, so there is a crowded design in the radial direction, which allows an immediate takeover of flow control through the Umlenkschieber, namely with a corresponding configuration of the Umlenkschiebers both against the protective hood and towards the ring channel.
  • the bell annealing furnace has an annealing base 1, in which a radial fan 2 is mounted, the impeller 3 is driven by a motor 4.
  • the impeller 3 is enclosed by a nozzle 5, the vanes are denoted by 6.
  • the resting on the glow base 1 Glühgut 7, which is only indicated by dash-dotted lines, is covered by a protective cover 8, which has an annular flange 9 is supported, which provides a circumferential seal 10 for a gas-tight closure of the protective cover 8.
  • the glow base 1 is surrounded by a heat exchanger 11, which opens on the downstream side in an annular gap 12 between the protective cover 8 and the nozzle 5.
  • the heat exchanger 11 connects to a flow channel 13, which is designed as an annular gap 14 concentric to the annular gap.
  • the separation between the annular channel 14 and the annular gap 12 is effected by a cylindrical wall 15 which is axially displaceably mounted and connected to an actuator 16 via lifting rods 17.
  • the wall 15 carries an outside of the nozzle 5 subsequent deflection in the form of the nozzle 5 enclosing annular Umlenkschiebers 18 which releases either the gas flow according to FIG.
  • the Umlenkschieber 18 advantageously fits into the space won, which brings a radially crowded design with it.
  • the deflecting slide 18 is raised from the lowered position shown in FIG. 1 into the position according to FIG. 2 in order to cool a corresponding gas flow via the annular channel 14 through the heat exchanger 11 and via the annular gap 12 to supply the protective cover 8 again.
  • the cooling of the protective gas in the region below the annular flange 9 brings a cooling of the protective hood with the annular flange 9 in this area with it, which would otherwise be unnecessary separate cooling measures.
