Abstract

220.867. Perry, H. H. Dec. 13, 1923. Regenerators.-A regenerator for air and gases for use particularly, but not exclusively, for heating air for combustion by waste furnace gases comprises two heattransferring bodies adapted to be moved in rectilinear paths arranged in a rectangular casing 1 provided on one side with an inlet 2 for the heating medium and an outlet 3 for the heated air and on the other side with an outlet 4 for the heating medium and an inlet 5 for the air to be heated. The air inlet 5 and outlet 3 are connected together by a casing constituting a duct and comprising a rectangular portion unsymmetrically arranged within the casing 1 and connected to the inlet 5 and outlet 3 by tapering portions so as to leave a wider space at 8 than at 7. The heating medium entering at 2 passes around the air duct through passages 9, 10 to the outlet 4. Arranged in the path of the heating medium and air to be heated are two heat transferring casings 14, 15 containing heatabsorbing material such as corrugated metal plates or sheets, chains, pipes, rings or flat metal spirals. The casings are connected by ropes, chains or cables 16 passing over pulleys 17 on a shaft 18 driven by an electric motor through reversing gearing so that the casings may be moved in a rectilinear path from the positions they occupy as shown in Fig. 2 to positions in which the casing 14 is raised and the casing 15 lowered. The arrangement is such that portions of the frames 14, 15 which have previously been traversed by the heating medium are, upon reversal, traversed by the air to be heated. Packing 25 which may be in the form of a metal brush is arranged at the points 24 to prevent leakage between the ducts. Casings 26, 27 which are smaller editions of the casings 14, 15 and are connected by rods or tubes 28 are arranged across the duct for the heating medium to intercept soot &c. These casings are capable of small vertical movement, which they receive by engagement with the casings 14, 15, to shake off the soot &c. Collapsable shutters 32 are provided to close the spaces left momentarily between the upper lower parts of the casings 14, 15 and the upper and lower walls of the spaces 11, 12. The path of the heating medium may be short-circuited by a valve 33 adapted be operated by a thermostat arranged in the path of the air or heating medium so that the valve may be opened when the temperature of the duct in which the thermostat is placed rises above a predetermined amount.
