The invention to whiih the presepi. case pertains consists in special featuremgf construction of the outlet D and in the means employed for closing and openin this' out let passage as oondtions require. nthe oonstruction illustrated in Figi. 1 and Il,A ini-.1u-
wir
sive, each outlet passage D is formed of maf sonry with oppositely directed upwardly inclined bottom wall portions D', which inert at their upper ends and thus form a restricted throat portion of the outlet passage. This throat. in the form shown, has flat bottoni and side walls and an arched top wall. A groove l)`' is formed in the upper side of the bottom wall, and this groove reg,- istcrs at its ends with a slot or kerf D3 formed in the side and top walls of the restricted portion of the passage. The inasonry forming the restricted portion of the passage D is encircled by a. metallic armor formed of two similar )arts D4, which are bolted together at the bottom by bolts D5 connecting adjacent flange portions of the two parts D. These flange portions and thc bolts I)5 may be, and are, shown as being embedded in the masonry forming the bottom wall of the restricted portion of the passage D. The two parts D4 may advantageously be connected adjacent their upper portions by stays D connecting outer lugs or ear portions I)si of the metal Barts D. The latter have inclined portions T which coperate to form outwardly flared outer edge portions of the kerf D3.
l To close the passage D a removable damper I is employed. This is of plate like form, and when in place rests on the bottom wall of the groove D2 and extends through the slot, D"x at the sides and top of the passage. Advantageously, as shown, the damper is formed with a metal rim portion I and refractory body portion formed of tire brick mounted in the metallicl rim. As shown, the rim portion I comprises a one piece n ieinber forming the sides and top of the rnn, and a bottom portionla, which has end ort1ons secured to the outer rib or flange 2 of the upper portion of the rim by bolts IY. The damper I is of a thickness a trifle less than the width of the kerf, to permit the easy msertion and removal of the damper wl en this is necessary. To prevent leakage al ng the joints'between the damper and the sides of the kerf I)3 these joints are luted at their outer edges by moist clay o1' the like. The effective loting of these joints is fac1htated by the inclined surfaces I)T of the metal parts D* and by the provisionof the central rib or flange I2 at the outer snle of the metallic rim I of the damper. Ears I5 secured to the upper portion of the rib I2 form imeans for connecting the damper to a suitable hoisting or transporting device somewhat conventionally illustrated at R in Fig. 2.
With the dam er I in place, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, tlie passage D is efl'ectually closed. When it is desired to open the passage D the damper I is removed. It then becomes necessar to seal the` korf D" in order to prevent iiiirnace gasesfrom passing outward or air from being sucked into the passage through the kerf. The korf sealing device which I prefer to employ in conjunction with the removable damper I is shown in Figs. 6, 7 and 8. This kerf sealing device J ,las shown, is shaped to fill the korf D3 without-projecting into the throat of the )assage D. The device J differs essentially rom the damper I only7 in having a portion eut away, and comprislng an outer metallic rim portion J', and an inner portion of refractory material, as fire brick,.which is held in place by the rim portion. The rim portion is formed in three sections, a main section J', and two end sections J. The end sections are provided with extensions which overlap the outer rib J2 of the main rim, and are secured `to the latter by bolts J. The rim J' is provided with ears J's for connection to hoistin and manipulating mechanism. The ker sealingr device J is luted in place just as is the damper I.
In the modified construction illustrated in Figs. 9 and 10 the passageway Dlo differs from the passa e D, of the construction first described, in t at the kerf D3" extends entirely across the walls of the passage, and the metallic armor D at the edges of the kerf are entirely disconnected from one another and comprise flared luting orsealng outer portions running all the way around the passage. The damper K is essentially the same in construction as the dam er I first described, except that it is made a out twice as high and is formed in the upper portion with a passageway K. In consequence, when the damper device K is in the osition shown in Fig. 10 it seals the passageqy, and when the damper K is lowered to bring its openingir K into registerwith the passage Dso the device K then serves the function of the separate part J in the construction first de scribed. In either of its two o erative positions the joints between the evice K and the adjacent edges of the korf D are luted with clay.
The modified construction shown in Figs.
11 and 12 differs from that shown in Figs. t) and 10 essentially in that the damper KA is shortened in height and horizontally elongated, and is moved horizontally to substitute its imperforate portion for the opening K1 or vice versa.
The damper constructions illustrated are simple and durable and possess the special advantages for the uses specified, that with them leakage is reduced to a practical lninmum, and difficulties due to the accumulation of flue dnstare minimized.
The avoidance of leakage is of prime irnportance, as the eflicicncy of the waste heat boiler s stem is greatly lowered by any considerabe influx of air into the fines. Ther flue dust which is carried out of the kilns in large yquantities has little opportunity to clog up the passages adjacent the cnt-ott dempers with the downwardly inclined bottom walls at the opposite wslides of the daln'per kerl". Furthermore, the passage adjacent this kerf, which is ordinarily 7 inches or so wide, .may be readily cleaned through the kerf from time to time. Y
lVhile in accordance with the Provisions of the statutes I have illustrated and described the best form of my invention now known to me, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that changes may be made in the form of my invention without departing from its spirit. and that some features of my invention may sometimes be used to advantage without a corresponding use of other features.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent` is:
1. The combination with a conduit formed with a transverse kerf in its wall and a plate like damper removably received in said kerf, said damper and conduit wall being formed with surfaces cot'iperating to forni an accessible lutiiugr material receiving' groove at the outer edges of the joints between the side walls of the kerf and the damper.
2. The combination with a conduit formed with a transverse kerf in its wall, of a damper for said conduit including a part adapted to substantially fill said korf and close the conduit7 and another part adapted to substantially ll the kerf while Ica the conduit open, said damper parts h conduit being formed with accessible sul'- aees eoiiperatng to provide a lutng material receiving groove at the outer ed? of the joints between the side walls of t e kerf and the damper.
3. The combination with a. conduit formed with n transverse kerf in its wall and having the outer portions of the side walls of the kerf inclined away from the plane ofthe korf and made accessible for loting, and a. ilatfe like damper removably received in said {er 4. The combination with a conduit formed with a transverse kerf in its wll. and having the outer portions of the side walls of the kerf inclined away from the plane of the kerf und made accessible for luting, and a plate like dam er removably received in said kei-f and ormed with a metallic rim with a centrali extending rib onits top and sides and a re actory filling.
5. A nmsonry conduit ormed with a transveise damper receiving kerf, with the outer portions of the side walls of said korf flared away from one another and made accessible for luting, und having the walls of said kerf covered by a metallic facing.
