WALL CONSTRUCTION Original Filed Feb. 18, 1931 2 Sheets-Sheet 1 DF/QL S//G Patented Apr. 17, 1934 WALL CONSTRUCTION William D. Dreiske, Oak Park, 111.
Application February 18, 1931, Serial No. 516,597 Renewed October 10, 1932 15 Claims.
This invention relates to fire walls for furnaces, and more particularly to walls of this kind that are-composed of blocks which are interlocking and which are removable.
Generally stated, the object of the invention is toprovide a novel and improved construction and arrangement whereby certain of the blocks are larger than others, and adapted to engage metal anchoring devices fixed in the outside wall of the furnace, while other blocks are of different shape and size and are adapted to interlockingly engage the said larger blocks, whereby to provide a fire wall of fireproof blocks that will stand a high temperature, and which can be easily assembled in place, or easily separated and removed when occasion requires. 7
It is also an object to provide certain details and features of construction and combinations tending to increase the general eiiiciency and desirability of a furnace fire wall of this particular character.
To these and other useful ends, the invention consists in matters hereinafter set forth and claimed and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a horizontal section on line 11 in Fig. 2, showing a wall embodying the principles of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a vertical section on line 2-2 in Fig. 1 of the drawings;
Fig. 3 is a perspective of three difierent shapes or sizes of blocks employed in constructing the said wall;
Fig. 1 is a perspective of a wall embodying the principles of the invention, showing some of the blocks in section, and showing the outside wall construction to which the blocks are anchored, and showing certain portions omitted or broken away for convenience of illustration.
As thus illustrated, the invention comprises the relatively large blocks 1, which are provided at their upper and lower ends with sockets 2 for engagement with the metal anchoring devices 3, 45 shown in the drawings. The sides of this block are provided with projections 4 at one side, and
with projections 5 at the other side, the projections at one side being opposite the spaces between the projections at the other side. It will be seen that said projections 4 and 5 have vertically disposed grooves 6, as shown, and that the spaces between said projections have vertical ribs '7, as shown. The devices 3 are preferably fixed on horizontal U-bars 8, supported by vertical I- beams 9 immediately outside of the insulating wall 10 of the wall structure.
The next smaller size block 11 is smooth on its side 12, but has its other side 13 provided with a vertical rib 14 and with the vertical groove 15, as shown. The ribs 14 of the blocks 11 engage the ribs '7 of the blocks 1, in the manner shown, when the blocks are assembled in place.
The smallest size block 16 has one side provided with a vertical groove 17 and has the other side provided with a vertical rib 18. The grooves 1'7 of the blocks 16 engage the ribs 14 of the blocks 11, while the ribs 18 of the blocks 16 engage the grooves 15 of the blocks 11, when the blocks are assembled together. This is shown more clearly in Fig. l of the drawings, where it will be seen that the blocks 11 are turned back to back, so to speak, and. arranged in pairs, with the rib 14 of one block opposite the groove 15 of the other block, and with the groove 15 of the other block opposite the rib 14 of the one block. In this way, the blocks 11 are anchored to the blocks 1, and the 75 blocks 16 are anchored to the blocks 11, in the manner shown.
The building-up process is illustrated in Fig. 4 of the drawings.
It will be seen that the blocks 1 are irregular in formation, while the blocks 11 are of regular and oblong rectangular formation, while the blocks 16 are substantially cubical in form. The outer surfaces of the blocks 11 and 16 are flush, as shown, thereby forming the inner surface of the furnace wall.
, Thus, as shown, the blocks 16 are substantially the same in size as the sections 4 of the blocks 1, assuming that these sections are separated horizontally, or by horizontal planes. The dif- 9O ferent blocks are shown interlocked, but they may be fastened or joined together in any suitable or desired manner. Also, while the blocks 1 are shown as having the sections 4 and 5 in staggered relation, it is obvious that these blocks may be suitably formed to cooperate with the other blocks, in any suitable or desired manner.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. In a furnace fire wall construction, the combination of upright blocks having spaced projections on each side thereof, the projections on one side being opposite the spaces on the other side, an outer frame, devices for anchoring said blocks to said frame, said blocks being arranged one on top of the other in spaced vertical columns, blocks inserted in said spaces between the columns, projecting outwardly a distance beyond the columns, and other blocks interposed between the projecting portions of said second mentioned blocks, and second and third mentioned blocks having flush outer surfaces forming the surface of the wall.
2. A structure as specified in claim 1, said anchoring devices comprising metal projections extending between the upper and lower ends of the first mentioned blocks, these blocks having their upper and lower ends formed with sockets to engage said metal projections.
3. A structure as specified in claim 1, all of said blocks having vertically disposed ribs and grooves for interlocking the blocks together, whereby the second mentioned blocks are interlocked with the first mentioned blocks, and whereby the third mentioned blocks are interlocked with the second mentioned blocks.
4. A structure as specified in claim 1, said second mentioned blocks being disposed in pairs back to back, each pair between a recess of one of the first mentioned blocks, and a projection of another of the first mentioned blocks, and said third mentioned blocks being each disposed between two of said pairs of second mentioned blocks.
