Abstract

925,899. Electric furnace resistance elements. KANTHAL A.B. Sept. 18, 1959 [Sept. 22, 1958; Dec. 3, 1958; Feb. 6, 1959], No. 31918/59. Class 39 (3). An electric resistance furnace is heated by vertically disposed, hairpin-shaped resistor elements containing Si so that a superficial layer of SiO 2 is formed in operation, the temperature of operation being such that the superficial layer flows slowly downwards and leaves the heating elements as drops so that adherent impurities are removed. The heater elements are of MoSi 2 , made by powder metallurgy and having a ceramic binding agent of fusible clay e.g. bentonite with residues of carbides, oxides, borides and other metals converted to oxides in operation which flow together with the SiO 2 , or of silicon carbide. The Mo may be replaced by one or more of Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr or W and the processing is of steel ingots or of glass, ceramics or chemicals. The invention can be applied to soaking pit furnaces continuous heating furnaces, open hearth furnaces, rotary hearth furnaces and high-temperature furnaces. In one form (soaking pit furnace), Fig. 1, there are two juxtaposed rows of heating pits each row containing e.g. 10 pits. The covers 21 can be lifted and moved aside by a traverse. The heaters 26 instead of hairpins may have tubular lead in and glow portions and a rod or tubular return insulated from each other by an intermediate oxide layer. Vertical webs are placed between the glow zones of the elements. The heating elements are connected in groups each comprising four juxtaposed heating pits each group being controlled separately. Steps 29 have slag-receiving pockets and are associated with slag-removing openings in the furnace walls. In Figs. 4-6 (not shown) the heater elements are bent at 120 degrees, bent perpendicularly or arched or may depend vertically for their entire length, Fig. 7 (not shown). The rotary hearth of a rotary hearth furnace may be moved continuously or stepwise, Fig. 16 (not shown). In a high-temperature furnace, Fig. 19, rollers 94, 96 are grooved so can carry one, three, or any number of elongated rod shaped or tubular bodies the shafts 95, 97 of which are driven together or separately; they may have a central channel for water cooling. Ribs 101 protect the heaters 99 from damage. Specification 925,898 is referred to.
