Abstract

477,027. Electric furnaces. TRIGGS, W. W. (Cornelius, Y. R.) March 19, 1936, No. 8287. [Class 39 (iii)] In a polyphase furnace which may be used for the manufacture of glass and sodium silicate and which has submerged electrodes and a submerged outlet, an electrode is arranged opposite the outlet and other electrodes are arranged so that the gap between electrodes near the outlet is smaller than the gap between electrodes further from the outlet so as to promote uniform heating. In Fig. 2, the gaps X, Y are #2 times the gap Z. In Fig. 4, electrodes 24, 26 are connected to the same phase. The maximum gap is, between electrodes 23, 25 and the minimum gap is between electrode 23 and electrodes 24 and 26. In modifications of Fig. 4, some or all of the electrodes are each replaced by as paced pair of electrodes. The bottom of the outlet throat and the refining chamber 4, Fig. 11, are heated by carbon resisters 38 arranged under iron blocks 37. Cooling ducts 35 are provided in the furnace walls. The charge is spread over the furnace by a motor driven charging car as described in Specification 439,080. The spacing of the electrodes from the furnace walls is also in accordance with that Specification. The electrodes rest on a platform 12 and are of cylindrical or rectangular form with connecting plates 47 having a volume not less than a third of that of the electrode.
